Driving the car, Cloud Retainer increased the speed to the maximum.

With a flick of the steering wheel in his hand, no obstacle on the road could pose any obstacle to Cloud Retainer.

In the passenger seat next to him, Shenhe checked Bai Ye for a long time and, after finding nothing wrong, finally let him go.

But after the release,

Shenhe felt somewhat empty.

At first, I didn't feel much.

However, after holding Bai Ye for a long time, Shenhe found that he didn't want to let go.

This is so comfortable.

The malevolent energy that had been tormenting him had completely vanished, not suppressed but completely disappeared from the person in front of him. He no longer needed to worry about those burdens, which was incredibly liberating.

Then you can also smell the fragrance emanating from Bai Ye.

When Shenhe let go of Bai Ye, he almost wanted to grab him again.

His eyes glanced at Bai Ye several times.

Bai Ye felt as if he were going to retrieve the Buddhist scriptures from the Western Paradise, like Tang Sanzang.

Looking at all this through the rearview mirror of the car, Cloud Retainer couldn't help but laugh to himself.

It would be better Shenhe took the initiative.

After taking Shenhe away, Cloud Retainer thought about how to make her safer next time she went down the mountain to travel.

She definitely can't manage on her own.

They were lucky this time; they found Shenhe just before things got out of control.

What about next time?

What if it's too late?

Therefore, it is necessary to find someone to act with her.

It can only be Bai Ye.

But when it came to getting Cloud Retainer to speak, and then getting Bai Ye to take in Shenhe, he simply couldn't bring himself to say a word.

The child is already having a difficult time.

Let him bring one more.

This is really going too far.

Not to mention,

He was the main force in rescuing Shenhe He this time.

Let's see Shenhe does on his own.

When the time is right, he will ask Shenhe to protect him.

My own disciple is still extremely strong.

Protecting the Bai Ye is still easier.

Of course, if we can't get along, then let her continue to follow me in my cultivation.

Cloud Retainer said to Bai Ye:

"Bai Ye, how many more days will you be cultivating at Mt. Aocang? This immortal will correct some of your mistakes in Art of Automata and immortal Adeptal Arts."

Stay a few more days, firstly to properly teach him so that his strength can be improved, and he seems to be extremely bad at applying Adeptal Arts to Art of Automata;

Secondly, he wanted to spend more time with Shenhe so that he could fulfill his own wish.

Upon hearing this question from Cloud Retainer,

Bai Ye's face first showed a blank expression.

Next,

As if he had thought of something,

His expression changed drastically.

A look of panic immediately appeared on his face.

"What's wrong? Tell me slowly, and I will take care of it for you."

"Cloud Retainer said softly."

What's wrong with Bai Ye? Why does he look so flustered? Could it be that those people in Liyue Harbor dared to threaten Bai Ye?

There is a fairy tale there.

These things are absolutely impossible.

Cloud Retainer was worrying about how to repay Bai Ye's favor, the favor came to him on its own.

But before she could even be happy...

Bai Ye shook his head vigorously.

At this moment, Bai Ye was a little embarrassed to speak.

It's been so long that I almost forgot about the important matter.

I came here to tell the Adepti about the assassination of the Rex Lapis, but after all the commotion, I actually forgot about this most important thing.

Good heavens, I was just complaining in my head about Cloud Retainer had just remembered Shenhe, only to find out that his own memory is even worse than Cloud Retainer's.

However, this is not Bai Ye's fault.

It's because he knew that the Rex Lapis was completely unharmed.

Subconsciously, he regarded this matter as a trivial matter.

It was only after asking the Cloud Retainer that Bai Ye finally remembered.

"Well, I'm here to deliver some news to you."

Bai Ye looked at Cloud Retainer's face and slowly spoke.

"What news?"

"It doesn't matter," said Cloud Retainer, seemingly unconcerned.

She even had time to drift around the bend.

"Well, a small incident has occurred in Liyue Harbor."

"Oh, those Liyue Qixing can't even handle this small incident? What's the point of keeping them Seven Stars?"

Why not just give it to Bai Ye?

"Um, His Rex Lapis has been assassinated."

"Oh, isn't it the Rex Lapis... Wait, who did you say was assassinated!?"

Cloud Retainer slammed on the brakes, bringing the car to a sudden stop.

"During the Rite of Descension immortals, the Rex Lapis was assassinated."

Bai Ye honestly answered Cloud Retainer.

It is necessary to inform Cloud Retainer and Rex Lapis of their 'death,' as this is related to Zhongli's plan. If it truly delays Zhongli's plan, then there will be a big problem.

I still need to go to the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor.

His plan really failed.

Bai Ye couldn't even imagine the expression on his face when he saw her.

Why didn't you tell me about this sooner?

Cloud Retainer asked Bai Ye loudly.

And that guy from Guchen City, why didn't he tell me about this?

In this matter, Madame Ping and Bai Ye made a mistake.

They first knew that Zhongli was not dead, so they were fine under normal circumstances, but in case of an emergency, they would forget about it.

Bai Ye dared not answer anything.

Looking at Bai Ye's face, Cloud Retainer seemed worried about getting angry at him, his body trembling slightly, and a look of fear appeared on his cute face.

The urge to get angry immediately diminished by half.

He has an innocent and adorable face, making you feel that making him cry would be a sin.

Remembering Bai Ye's identity, the remaining half of his energy dissipated.

"Come, tell me the details of this situation."

The vehicle stopped at the foot of Mount Mt. Aocang.

The three got off the car. While guiding them up the mountain, Cloud Retainer asked Bai Ye about what had happened.

Bai Ye began to recount everything that had happened in Liyue Harbor.

After listening,

The beautiful, mature woman's face, Cloud Retainer, was already filled with rage.

"The Treasure Hoarders Fatui dare to cause trouble in Liyue Harbor. And the Liyue Qixing —even if they weren't responsible for the assassination of the Geo Archon, it was still dereliction of duty. I will immediately contact other factions to suppress Liyue Harbor and replace all the Seven Stars first."

She said through gritted teeth.

"My Lord, suppressing Liyue Harbor now will only make things more chaotic. Seven Stars will definitely give you a solution to this matter. If you are not satisfied, it is not too late to talk about suppressing Liyue Harbor later."

Bai Ye offered some advice to Cloud Retainer.

If I were to let Cloud Retainer and the other Adepti cause trouble in Liyue Harbor, things would become even more chaotic.

"Hmph, let's see what kind of invention those Seven Stars will come up with."

Cloud Retainer snorted coldly.

However, her anger had not yet subsided, and she said something to Bai Ye.

"But I am still extremely angry and want to destroy something."

You need to think of something for this immortal to do.

Cloud Retainer looked at Bai Ye and revealed this meaning.

Bai Ye thought for a moment.

They actually found a suitable place for Cloud Retainer stay.

"Look, besides the Treasure Hoarders who were caught by us, there were also Fatui who hurt Sister Shenhe just now. I defeated the Childe in Liyue Harbor back then, and he's still in Liyue now."

If you're looking for someone to vent your frustrations on and Fatui.

They have a large number of members and are also resilient.

As for the matter of the Gods Osial Oser after Tartaglia was also Cloud Retainer, Bai Ye didn't consider that.

How to test the people of Liyue Harbor after this is the question Morax is thinking about.

What does this have to do with him, a disciple of Hagintos?

I am just a harmless young man.

It's a bit of a pity about the Floating Stone incident.

Jade Chamber doesn't fall down, Ningguang probably won't agree to let him retrieve it himself.

Etc,

Bai Ye looked at Shenhe, she recalled the plot involving her.

The Floating Stone in the Jade Chamber is hard to find, but the Floating Stone Ningsheng Zhenjun is unclaimed.

Quickly find a way to get it to me.

"Okay, I understand."

Cloud Retainer nodded earnestly.

Then, it reverts to the crane state.

"I'll go deal with those Fatui first. Whatever the problem is between me and the Seven Stars, I will not allow those who want to profit from this. You should also use this time to find other Adepti to spread the news. Once all the Adepti have gathered, we can discuss the next steps."

All the other Adepti knew Shenhe, so even if Shen He didn't inform the other Adepti Bai Ye his identity, there was no need to worry that Bai Ye would encounter any blame during the notification process.

"Uh-huh."

Bai Ye nodded quickly.

Seeing that Bai Ye nodded, Cloud Retainer let out a long roar and then flew directly south.

Only Bai Ye and Shenhe remained.

"Master said he was going to find other Adepti."

"Mm." Bai Ye nodded.

"I'll rest for a bit and then drive again. I expect we'll be driving on a lot of mountain roads ahead, so I need to concentrate more."

Looking at Bai Ye, Shenhe for a moment and then spoke to him:

"You can rest first, I'll drive for you."

"You? Are you driving?"

Hearing Shenhe say this, Bai Ye was quite surprised.

She was just watching from the side, and then she learned to drive?

In some ways,

Shenhe is an extraordinary genius.

"Uh-huh."

Shenhe nodded to Bai Ye.

Bai Ye still had some doubts, but seeing how certain Shenhe was, she got into the car.

After all, it's hard to imagine Shenhe lying.

They went to the passenger seat to see if Shenhe could actually drive.

Next,

He then felt a lightness beneath him.

Why has my gaze suddenly become higher?

Have I finally grown taller?

Bai Ye Shan had just a fleeting thought of this.

Then,

He sensed something was wrong.

It felt like I was being lifted up, car and all.

Looking out the car window,

Shenhe lifted the entire vehicle and began to sprint without making a sound.

Run.

Bai Ye felt a backward push.

This speed,

Bai Ye discovered that it was actually no slower than his own chariot before it was modified by Cloud Retainer.

You open it like this,

So that's how it is.

Thus, the Hilichurl were staying near Mt. Aocang at that moment were fortunate enough to witness such a scene.

A pubescent girl is carrying a large cart and running continuously.

On the car,

There was also a bewildered teenager.

Upon seeing this, the Hilichurl immediately chose to evacuate.

Can't afford to offend them

This is someone you really can't mess with.

The Chasm, the base of the Fatui.

Dada Yangya is bandaging his wound.

The battle at Liyue Harbor North resulted in some injuries.

Even after being injured, he still forced himself to use the Fatui Delusion, which further aggravated the damage to his body.

He can only recuperate for now.

The task the Queen had given him was not yet completed, and he dared not go back.

Just then,

The Debt Collector came to report to him.

This is not the same Viktor.

Viktor is now a prisoner of war, and he might even be sent to work in a mine.

"What's the matter?"

Dadayanga asked him.

The Debt Collector replied to him:

"It's like this, one of our squads went out and hasn't returned. I'd like to ask, [Childe Master], what should we do?"

"One squad of men hasn't returned?"

Dada Yangya frowned.

What are these people going to do?

Didn't I tell them to be careful during this period?

Why do these things still happen?

"You know what they went to do?"

After thinking for a moment, the Debt Collector replied to Dada Yangya, "It is said that they want to recruit members of the Treasure Hoarders to act as our outer defense."

Upon hearing about the Treasure Hoarders,

Dada Yangya felt her head start to hurt again.

Treasure Hoarders

It's another Treasure Hoarders.

Dada Yangya felt that nothing good had ever come of him since he encountered the Treasure Hoarders.

During the Rite of Descension, if that Yan'er hadn't revealed her true identity, he wouldn't have had to expose himself so directly. At the same time, the Fatui wouldn't have needed to launch an attack, as they were defeated by the Millelith.

Now they've recruited Treasure Hoarders.

Will things change any further?

Just as he was thinking this,

Suddenly, a violent tremor occurred inside the factory.

Dada Yangya slapped his head in exasperation.

He immediately realized that this tremor was not a natural event like an earthquake, but rather that someone had called.

"Prepare to fight the enemy."

He gave an order to his men.

At the same time, he thought viciously to himself:

"If we manage to successfully return to Snezhnaya from Liyue this time, I must have a serious talk with everyone about wiping out all the Treasure Hoarders in Snezhnaya. Also, I absolutely forbid the Fatui from cooperating with the Treasure Hoarders in the future; it's just too unlucky."

With that thought in mind, he was the first to rush out of the factory.

Once outside,

I didn't see anyone at all.

As he was pondering the enemy's location, a haughty voice came from above his head.

"Are you the leader of this Fatui?"

Dadayangya looked up.

A crane is above it in the sky.

Dada Yangya said with a smile, "Yes, I don't know how we offended you?"

At the same time, he drew his arrow, preparing to fire it at the celestial Adepti in the sky.

In Liyue, the Adepti are relatively easy to recognize.

"Hmph, you were so brave when you hurt my disciple, why don't you dare admit it now?"

Cloud Retainer said with a cold laugh.

She could see Dada Yangya's movements clearly from above the sky.

Coincidentally, she was also preparing a crossbow.

"Of course I won't deny it."

Dadayangya answered.

At the same time, he kept cursing the missing Fatui in his heart.

Mom,

Why do you guys always pick and choose who to provoke?!
