What Himeko didn't know was that Gwen was actually worried about the girls in his own squad—

Apart from Li Sushang and Wuse Huohuo, they were all Herrscher bodies.

Gwen was even a little worried that Li Sushang and Wuse Huohuo might be implicated and also be chosen as Herrscher.

Fortunately, it turned out that it was just Gwen's wild imagination—

No new Herrscher appeared until Gwen returned to the deck of the Hyperion and saw his crew, which relieved Gwen.

However, it didn't take long for Gwen to discover a new problem—

Where is Fu Hua?

Himeko was surrounded by students who were crying tears of joy, and even the Wuse Huohuo was watching from afar.

However, Gwen confirmed that Fu Hua was not among the Far East Branch personnel.

"Back when we were in the Nine Netherworld, we got separated from our master... She is probably still in the Nine Netherworld now."

When Li Sushang heard Gwen ask about Fu Hua, she immediately thought of her amnesiac grandmaster.

"However, given her strength, she should be fine unless she's caught red-handed by Herrscher."

"I'll go down and look for it. Besides, this Nine Netherworld... isn't a good place either. Let's deal with this once and for all."

Gwen wasn't worried about any enemies in the Netherworld who could threaten Fu Hua, but the problem was that Fu Hua might become that enemy.

The plot has been completely altered, so it's not impossible that Fu Hua could suddenly become Herrscher here.

"Gwen, let Miss Su Shang go with you. She explored inside during the mission and might be able to offer some assistance."

Rita, who was too busy to get away, immediately suggested that Gwen take Li Sushang with him.

"That's exactly what I was thinking too."

Upon hearing this, Li Sushang immediately raised her hand.

"Then let's go look for it together."

Gwen nodded, and with Li Sushang, they rushed off the deck and headed towards the Nine Netherworld at the bottom of the sea.

In reality, Gwen didn't need any guide—

The two crucial Soul Steel containing the remnants of Danzhu Cang Xuan's souls have been removed. Gwen only needs to forcefully dismantle them by targeting the location of Fu Hua's aura as sensed.

Seeing this, Li Sushang, who was originally preparing to discuss the exploration plan with Gwen, could only shut up.

However, Li Sushang's eyes lit up when she saw the passage that Gwen had violently opened up.

Unaware that his actions had opened a new door for Li Sushang, Gwen led Li Sushang on a rampage, quickly finding the unconscious Fu Hua deep in the Nine Netherworlds.

"What happened to Grand Master?"

After Gwen examined her for a while, Li Sushang asked impatiently.

Although there were some grudges from back then, now that the misunderstandings have been cleared up and the grudges between them have been settled, Li Sushang is still very happy to have an old friend around her, making her clearly aware that she is still alive in the world, only that the world has changed.

"I'm physically fine, but I'm a bit confused mentally."

Sensing the increasingly active consciousness within Fu Hua's body, Gwen's lips twitched involuntarily as he looked at Li Sushang—

"Su Shang, I need to bring Fu Hua's consciousness out next. Please take care of our bodies here."

If anything goes wrong, take us back to the Hyperion first.

"No problem, leave it to me."

Although she didn't understand what had happened, Li Sushang nodded vigorously and solemnly promised.

"Please."

Gwen and Li Sushang exchanged a glance, and seeing the seriousness in her eyes, Ge Wen slowly nodded.

The next moment, Gwen effortlessly completed the link with Fu Hua and entered her Fu Hua mental world—

Amidst the red, blue, and black light, two Fu Hua confronted each other.

"Wow, it's quite lively here. Now you'll have more people to play mahjong."

"Why don't more people play mahjong and then play something else?"

Fu Hua, her face full of resentment, casually retorted to Gwen, but when she saw Gwen appear, she couldn't help but show a look of surprise and delight—

"Gwen, what brings you here?"

Come quick, come quick! There's a real and fake Monkey King here... Pshaw!

Someone here is saying I'm not Fu Hua!

As she spoke, Fu Hua, noticeably more lively now, dashed over to Gwen, grabbed his hand, and pulled him toward the tricolor light—

However, it didn't move.

"What are you doing? Come with me right now!"

Turning around unexpectedly, the lively Fu Hua looked puzzled.

"It's nothing, I just thought we should clear the area first—"

Looking at Fu Hua's clear and innocent face, Gwen confirmed his suspicions—

"As expected, it's Treasure of Knowledge, isn't it?"

However, Fu Hua wasn't lied to; her consciousness and soul remained within her body. How could the Honkai have taken advantage of her Honkai?

While speculating in his mind, Gwen had already raised his hand and drawn the Corona Sword.

What are you going to do?

"This is not a problem that can be solved by violence."

"What we should be doing now is distinguishing between the real and the fake..."

Three voices, one lively, one calm, and one composed, rang out quickly, attempting to stop Gwen's actions.

However, before they could even begin to bewitch the innocent Fu Hua beside Gwen, a dazzling sword light had already cleaved them into pieces—

"Demon Seal Slash!"

Seeing the three beams of light disappear, Gwen sighed regretfully and put away the Corona Sword.

However, the newly born Herrscher of Reason beside Gwen showed a look of curiosity—

"What kind of move is this?"

"I don't recall ever teaching you this trick."

Chapter 412 Shelving the Dispute.

Before being completely bewitched by the Treasure of Knowledge Honkai, Gwen didn't rush to end this grand drama of the true and false Monkey Kings. Instead, he first inquired about Fu Hua reasons why things had developed to this point—

It turns out that after accidentally getting separated from the main group during her exploration of the Nine Netherworlds, Fu Hua arrived at the core and saw the last trace that Ji Lin left in this world— Black Ji Lin.

Although Fu Hua's Remembrance are still severely fragmented, she has recovered some thanks to Gwen's efforts. She also has some Remembrance of Ji Lin Fu Hua, thanks to the feathers retrieved from Mount Taixu that filled in the gaps in her Remembrance.

With her Void Iron Fist combined with conversation, Fu Hua resolved the issue with Black Ji Lin.

However, after solving this problem, Fu Hua realized that the real issue was much bigger—

The previous confrontation with Black Ji Lin actually took place in the opponent's mental domain.

When Fu Hua returned to her body, she discovered that a new consciousness had emerged within her, and it was being seduced by the so-called "id, ego, and superego".

Honest Fu Hua stepped forward without hesitation to condemn their behavior of corrupting children.

However, in Honkai Impact 3rd, I turned the tables and claimed that Fu Hua was the consciousness of Herrscher, and that the newly created Treasure of Knowledge should kill Fu Hua to set things right.

However, compared to listening to the so-called three selves, Treasure of Knowledge was more interested in Fu Hua and directly argued with her, which led to the scene that Gwen witnessed.

After understanding the whole story, Gwen sighed and, under the Treasure of Knowledge hunter, paused the other party's frantic attempt to prove "I am Fu Hua."

"Since you were all able to stay in this body and control it perfectly, it means that you could all be Fu Hua."

Anyway, we're not on a pilgrimage to the West, so one of the two Sun Wukongs must have hit Tang Sanzang, the Six-Eared Macaque. We have to tell the real one from the fake one.

Let's put this issue aside for now, and get back to what we need to do. In time, the truth will come to light.

"No problem, time will tell."

Upon hearing Gwen's suggestion, Treasure of Knowledge immediately agreed.

Fu Hua wanted to say something, but Jian Treasure of Knowledge had already agreed, and faced with Gwen's signal, she didn't say anything.

Moreover, looking at the innocent and lively expression on that face that was exactly like her own, Fu Hua felt very strange, but she couldn't feel any ill will.

Having temporarily fooled the Treasure of Knowledge, Gwen quickly broke the link—

Although he couldn't quite sense it, Gwen could feel that his body had been moved, which meant something had probably happened outside.

Sure enough, when Gwen, he found himself back on the Hyperion, being carried and run at full speed.

"Su Shang, what happened?"

Recognizing Li Sushang from her charred hair, Gwen patted her shoulder, signaling her to stop, while asking her a question.

Gwen, you're awake?

Li Sushang's pretty face was full of surprise as she watched Gwen jump down from behind her. She breathed a sigh of relief only after he nodded in acknowledgment, and then quickly said—

"Gwen, you had only closed your eyes for a short while when Jiu You suddenly started moving, so I quickly brought you and Grandmaster out."

Back on the ship, it seems they said that Jiuyou was actually alive, and had just woken up.

"Chiyou has awakened?"

Gwen raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, but thinking about it, with three Herrscher awakening around him, it was quite normal for this Judgment-class Honkai Beast, which wasn't quite dead, to revive after the seal was broken.

"Chiyou?"

Upon hearing this, Li Sushang's eyes widened in surprise.

Even though she had never formally attended school, she had heard of Chiyou's name from storytellers.

"Yes, it may differ from the historical records, but the Nine Netherworld we entered before was indeed the sealed Chiyou —a Judgment-class Honkai Beast."

Now that the seal has been broken and more Herrscher have appeared around him, his resurgence is quite normal.

"Judgment-class Honkai Beast?"

Upon hearing this, Li Sushang was immediately startled, her surprise quickly turning into worry.

"Then we need to deal with it as soon as possible. Even if that thing has been sealed for many years, once it starts causing trouble, it will cause countless people to lose their lives."

As she spoke, Li Sushang grabbed Gwen and tried to run away.

However, at that moment, another voice interrupted their conversation—

"The Herrscher?"

Chiyou?

Has Herrscher resurrected Chiyou?

Having found two keywords from a jumble of Remembrance, and immediately uncovering numerous related Remembrance, Little Reason stared at Gwen and Li Sushang with her red eyes.

"Come on, let me take care of that beast."

It only started causing trouble when I wasn't around. Now that I'm here, let's see how it tries to wreak havoc.

Taking Gwen and Li Sushang's silence as tacit agreement, Treasure of Knowledge casually waved her hand, and a black and red spear appeared in her hand. She twirled the spear and rushed out like lightning.

"Let's go, let's follow them and see."

Seeing this, Gwen called out and pulled the still somewhat bewildered Li Sushang and Mei along to follow.

Before Treasure of Knowledge could even rush onto the deck and shout that he was going to take care of Chiyou, he was stopped by Gwen—

"Calm down, Fu Hua. Think about your current identity and mission. Don't act impulsively and cause all your previous efforts to go to waste."

"Oh..."

Upon hearing this, Treasure of Knowledge pursed his lips and obediently put away the spear in his hand.

Seeing that Treasure of Knowledge was still a well-behaved little boy, Gwen subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
