"Brother Luo, just tell me what you want. If you want anything forged, just tell me. As a blacksmith, I can make most things for you. Consider this your reward of 5 million Mora," Liu Wenxuan said, patting his chest.

"What are you talking about compensation for? Here's 5 million. If it's not enough, come find me anytime," Chen Luo said, patting the other person on the shoulder.

What is Mora to Chen Luo? He can use the copied Geo Archon's Gnosis to create Mora anyway. Besides, Chen Luo has over 700 million Mora, more than he can spend right now.

"Ahem, Alo, I suddenly feel that 1 million Mora might not be enough for research, so could you increase the amount of Mora I receive by another 5 million? If you have enough cash, I can give you some spirit stones or some magical items," Yun Lian'er said after coughing twice.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

[I'm in!] I, Yun Lian'er, have never been inferior to anyone in my life! It's just 5 million Mora, right? I'll just add another 5 million Mora!

Reward: 150 Primogem + 5 points of Yun Lian'er's favorability

Difficulty: Two stars

"Uh, sure." Chen Luo nodded.

Although the other person's competitive spirit was a little strange, Chen Luo didn't mind.

"Hahaha, I, I want... Hahaha, 7 million Mora... Hahaha, Mora! Hahaha..." Yun Xia laughed as she asserted her presence.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

[Hilarious! Who's afraid of who?]: I'll take it! I'm asking for 7 million!

Reward: 160 Primogem + 5 points of Yun Xia's favorability

Difficulty: Two stars

"Yes, yes..." The angles of comparison were getting stranger and stranger, and Chen Luo was getting happier and happier.

"As payment, hahaha, I can... hahaha, lend you my 54 cards... hahaha, let you examine them for half a day, hahaha..."

A decisive blow!

No solution!

Yun Xia is the only one among the four S-rank Talent User present who can show off her talent to others.

The other three are Yun Lian'er, whose talent is the opponent's magical ability; Liu Yunxuan, whose talent is the strange and unusual thing called courage; and Su Yuan, who is a sword immortal.

Therefore Yun Xia's move can be described as cutting off the source of the problem.

"You... cough cough cough..." Yun Lian'er looked at Yun Xia, who was laughing loudly, and felt that the other party was mocking her, but she suddenly coughed in her anxiety.

The curse of the other party's Witch Physique is no joke.

"Alright, alright, Miss, 6 million Mora is enough. We can ask for more later." Sister Meng quickly sat down next to Yun Lian'er and patted her back.

"Hahaha, you weakling... Hahaha!" This time, Yun Xia laughed from the bottom of her heart.

"..." Yun Lian'er's eyes turned cold.

"Hahaha, what are you looking at? Are you afraid of me? Hahaha..." Yun Xia laughed while pointing at Yun Lian'er.

This is the real mockery.

This is the real mockery of a sickly girl by a fitness enthusiast.

Yun Xia and Yun Lian'er, although one is Magical Girl and the other is Magus, are clearly not the same.

Yun Xia is the kind of unorthodox Magus who buffs herself and then uses that buff on herself.

Yun Lian'er is the kind of proper Magus who gives buffs to others and lets others receive them.

"Ahem, alright, you two calm down." Chen Luo quickly stepped forward to stop the already tense situation from escalating further.

"Xiao Yuan, go!" Chen Luo winked at Su Yuan.

"Mm." Su Yuan nodded and took two steps forward.

"Excuse my bluntness, but everyone here is trash," Su Yuan said with a wave of her hand.

"Slap!" Chen Luo delivered a chop to the other person's neck without any expression.

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry." Chen Luo said to everyone while pressing Su Yuan's head.

"How dare you?" After apologizing, Chen Luo looked at Su Yuan in disbelief.

"But didn't we come here to test our swords?" Su Yuan said, rubbing her head.

"Let's test the sword, what do you mean by provoking me? With my relationship as your cousin, you could easily ask someone for a favor, couldn't you?"

"But Yun Xia got the short end of the stick last time. After we got back, we both reflected on our shortcomings, then watched a movie, and then... I found the best way to get the other person to fight me," Su Yuan said.

"..." Chen Luo turned his head to look at Yun Xia, who was still smiling.

"Hahaha, this really isn't my fault, hahaha, I didn't mean to..." Yun Xia, whose stomach hurt a little from laughing, quickly shook her head.

"That's how it is. I hope you two can fight with my cousin, which is to say, test her swordsmanship. That's why my cousin came down the mountain this time," Chen Luo said to Yun Lian'er and Liu Wenxuan.

"I've never heard you mention having a cousin before, Brother Luo..." Liu Wenxuan said, stroking his chin as he looked at Su Yuan.

Liu Wenxuan had been very curious about Su Yuan, but seeing that Yun Lian'er and Yun Xia didn't seem surprised at all, Liu Wenxuan had to suppress his curiosity after Chen Luo briefly introduced Su Yuan.

"What a coincidence, actually I didn't even know I had a cousin until a few days ago."

"My cousin has been cultivating in the mountains since she was a child, so she is quite strong. At least Yun Xia has never beaten my cousin," Chen Luo said.

"Hahaha, don't use me, hahaha, as a negative example." Yun Xia protested while laughing.

"You only said she's S-rank Talent User, but what exactly is her S-rank Talent?" Liu Wenxuan asked Su Yuan curiously.

"Sword Immortal".

"... The name in the textbook." Liu Wenxuan looked at Su Yuan in surprise.

Every Talent User joins the Relevant Department or is discovered by the Relevant Department will receive a booklet that is like a textbook for the Dark World, just like the one Chen Luo received. In all the booklets, the compatibility between cultivation and the Talent User is emphasized.

And the examples cited in every version of the booklet are all sword immortals.

Now Liu Wenxuan has actually met the real person. Liu Wenxuan used to think this was just an example, but he never expected it to actually exist.

"Since you've already asked, Brother Luo, I certainly won't refuse. But where will we fight? Should we have Yun Lian'er set up a barrier, or should we go directly to Different World?" Liu Wenxuan's eyes were full of curiosity, showing that Liu Wenxuan was also very interested in the Different World.

"Let's forget about the Different World. Although it's called Different World, not all Different World are deserted places, and we can't find a suitable place to fight. Let's go to the War Domain instead."

Don't make it seem like there's no one in this Different World. There are people in Different World too, okay?

"War Domain?"

"So this is the War Domain? In other words, it really was you, Brother Luo, who killed Yvette?" Looking at the boundless sea and the ruins beside it that seemed to have been cleaved in half by some powerful fire attack, Liu Wenxuan asked.

"How can you blame me? She provoked me first, okay? How could I tolerate that?"

LOL. If it were any other S-rank Talent User provoked Chen Luo Chen Luo, he would have tolerated it, but she's an angel... how dare she?

"It's not that I blame you, it's just that you hid it really well, Brother Luo. You acted so innocent." Liu Wenxuan sighed.

At first, Liu Wenxuan genuinely believed Chen Luo was innocent, but now it seems all that can be said is that Chen Luo's acting skills are truly superb.

"Boom!" A deafening explosion rang out, causing Chen Luo to turn his head slightly.

"As expected, Yun Lian'er is different from someone like me who is suited for individual combat; she's better suited for area-of-effect attacks. Is this the difference between a berserker and Magus?" Sitting atop the Gu Yun Pavilion had been cut down, Liu Wenxuan looked into the distance and said.

There, Yun Lian'er and Su Yuan were already fighting.

However, given that the two were not compatible in combat and that it was Su Yuan who initiated the challenge, Su Yuan allowed Yun Lian'er to put a shield on her first.

"Speaking of which, this must be Gu Yun Pavilion, right? I know a bit about the Teyvat Continent, and that blurry image in the distance should be Liyue Harbor, right?" Unlike Yun Xia, who is under 18 and doesn't play games, Liu Wenxuan clearly knows about the Teyvat Continent.

"Yes."

"Who cut down this Gu Yun Pavilion? Such a powerful fire attack melted all the cut surfaces into Ryuu- like texture. Moreover, one can feel a thousand-meter-long crack deep in the ocean, which is completely out of place with the original flat continental skeleton."

"Heavenly Fire Judgment," Chen Luo replied decisively.

Although the attack was launched by the Infinite Serpent, the Infinite Serpent is actually a trigger for the Heavenly Fire Judgment.

In a sense, the power of Heavenly Fire Judgment used by Infinite Serpent is almost the same as that of Heavenly Fire Judgment used by Siegfried.

However, things were different when they came into Chen Luo's hands.

Just like how the Heavenly Fire Judgment remained the Heavenly Fire Judgment in Siegfried's hands, but became the An-Utu in Kevin's hands.

Chen Luo is not Kevin, but Chen Luo can use his Furniture Mastery to make the Heavenly Fire Judgment shine with its true brilliance, and at the same time rely on his 200% Honkai Energy Adaptation to launch a powerful attack.

However, because the Heavenly Fire Judgment burns blood, Chen Luo has hardly ever used it.

"How is Teyvat Continent connected to the Honkai World? Oh well, they're both Different World anyway. Speaking of the Heavenly Fire Judgment, I'm quite looking forward to sparring with Kevin. I wonder who's stronger between us," Liu Wenxuan pondered.

"There's no comparison." Chen Luo shook his head.

"Does it mean that because of different worldviews, there's no comparison?"

"No, Kevin from the First Civilization Era just underwent fusion surgery. The outcome of a fight between the two of you is uncertain, but Kevin in his full form... you can't beat him," Chen Luo said.

Although Kevin was able to kill the Herrscher of Flame after the fusion surgery, the problem was that the Herrscher of Flame wasn't even thinking of resisting at the time. So it's not really certain to say that Kevin possessed Herrscher- level combat power right after the fusion surgery. However, Kevin has indeed killed two Herrscher so far.

Therefore, their combat strength is indeed somewhat unknown.

However, regardless of anything else, Kevin from the First Civilization Era still needs to grow. Right now, Kevin doesn't even have powerful moves like the Demonic Form; he hasn't even experimented with the Chimera Project, nor has Man-made Collapse surgery, nor has he received the Heavenly Fire Judgment...

The key issue is that Chen Luo has never seen Liu Wenxuan make a move, and the description of Liu Wenxuan's talent is somewhat ambiguous and puzzling.

"Have you met Kevin?"

"We've met, and we get along quite well," Chen Luo nodded.

"Brother Luo, you have quite a wide circle of friends."

"Harmony brings wealth," Chen Luo said.

"Oh, it's over." Just as Liu Wenxuan was about to ask more questions, the battle fluctuations in the distance subsided.

"What's wrong? You look so worried?" Chen Luo slowly floated over to Su Yuan, who was sitting cross-legged on her Flying Sword after the fight.

"Hmm, we won, but it doesn't feel like we completely won..." Su Yuan said somewhat dejectedly.

"What's the meaning?"

"It means that neither of us went all out, so this battle was a joke from the start," Yun Lian'er said as she floated over from a distance.

Chen Luo glanced at Yun Lian'er and immediately recognized traces of the flight technique he was extremely familiar with on her.

"You know my situation. Every page of this book contains precious magic that I painstakingly copied. Since this is just a friendly spar, I can't act recklessly. And my opponent, as a swordsman, uses only lethal techniques. In order not to cause me serious harm, he dares not use those sword skills," Yun Lian'er said.

Su Yuan nodded in agreement after hearing Yun Lian'er's words.

Chen Luo understood this, as Yun Lian'er's Great Library required copying the text herself to achieve the instantaneous effect.

If Yun Lian'er were to fight seriously, it would be like throwing money at someone – it's heartbreaking.

Whether they can win or not is another matter, but it really hurts.

This demonstrates just how powerful Void Archive's ability is—to instantly cast spells it has already analyzed simply by consuming excessive amounts of magic power or other energy.

"However, I believe Liu Wenxuan fighting style is quite good; the two of them might have a good fight." Yun Lian'er looked at Liu Wenxuan, who was approaching by riding on his qi.

"Tsk tsk tsk, what kind of suicidal fighting style is this?" Liu Wenxuan, who directly withstood a sword aura and completely disregarded his bloodied arm, held a blood-red ball of light in his right hand and shoved it at the opponent's face.

"I already told you, that guy is a mad dog on the battlefield. His talent isn't courage, it's berserk!" Yun Xia, who had finally finished laughing, lay sprawled on the reef without any regard for her image, and said weakly.

"Liu Wenxuan's courage and ability can grant him near-immortality. As long as his will does not completely weaken and his courage remains, his opponent will never fall. No matter how terrible the injury, it can be recovered in a short time."

"And Liu Wenxuan obtained another evil method of controlling qi in the Abyss Channel, which can transform life force into an attack method. It is the blood-red energy in the opponent's hand. That energy is not only extremely lethal, but it can also corrode the opponent's body and energy. This evil ability, combined with the opponent's almost infinite life force, created a mad dog on the battlefield."

"But Liu Wenxuan was quite happy with it."

"So generally speaking, no one wants to fight with Liu Wenxuan," Yun Lian'er, the top student, explained.

"It's really unbelievable, I've encountered so many pay-to-win warriors lately," Chen Luo exclaimed.

Chijie to say, Himeko and Liu Wenxuan seem to be the type who are willing to sacrifice their lives for others.

The same goes for the Heavenly Fire Judgment. The good news is that Kevin doesn't need to spend his life.
