Genshin: Ningguang or Little Pitiful, Invested by Me

But at this moment, she had the will but not the strength.

There was no other way.

She was simply too young.

She couldn't possibly unleash the Stellaris Screen twice in such a short period.

Ningguang's face was pale, her spirits incredibly low.

She could only watch helplessly as the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard gathered energy for its most powerful attack, unable to do anything.

The feeling was utterly despairing.

With a roar from the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard, a blue laser descended straight towards the crowd.

The laser carved a deep, bottomless gash across the land.

As the laser swept past a mountain, the mountain was instantly split in two, before finally charging directly at the crowd.

At this moment, Ningguang felt no fear, but an unexpected calm.

Her mind flashed with countless people and things, like a passing parade.

Finally, the image settled on Brother Fang Xun.

Brother Fang Xun looked at her with doting affection, gently ruffling her hair.

Every time Brother Fang Xun ruffled her hair, the little girl would pout in protest.

It was because Brother Fang Xun messed up the braids she had worked so hard to tie!

But thinking about it now, Brother Fang Xun's head-ruffling was actually quite comfortable.

Little Ningguang was starting to like that feeling.

If only Brother Fang Xun could ruffle her hair one more time right now...

Speaking of which, Little Ningguang had been so focused on her mother and the villagers earlier that she hadn't even thought about Fang Xun.

She wondered where Brother Fang Xun was right now...

Little Ningguang hoped that Fang Xun had already retreated when he saw how bad things were, the further the better.

Because the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard was simply too powerful, far beyond what an ordinary person could handle.

It would require the Liyue Qixing or even the Adepti to deal with it.

Brother Fang Xun would only be dragged down if he stayed here.

Without realizing it, tears had begun to gather on Little Ningguang's long eyelashes.

"If there's a next life, I hope to meet Brother Fang Xun again."

"At that time, I'll take care of Brother Fang Xun."

Ningguang closed her eyes in despair, quietly awaiting fate's judgment.

"Little girl, this life isn't over yet, why are you thinking about the next?"

Just then, a familiar voice echoed in Ningguang's ears.

It was Fang Xun!

Fang Xun had appeared beside her at some unknown time.

"Brother Fang Xun, why are you here?"

Little Ningguang opened her eyes, greatly surprised.

Immediately after, her tears began to fall, drop by drop.

"I'm sorry, Brother Fang Xun, I dragged you into this. I'm truly sorry."

The little girl blamed herself, crying uncontrollably.

If it weren't for her, Fang Xun wouldn't have been implicated at all.

And now, Fang Xun was going to perish with her.

Fang Xun reached out and gently wiped away Ningguang's tears, then said softly, "Silly girl, what's there to be dragged into?"

"You already call me brother, so how could I possibly feel like you're dragging me down?"

"Alright, this Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard is a bit of an eyesore. I'll deal with it first, and then we can talk."

Fang Xun reached out and pinched Ningguang's cheek.

His tone was very relaxed, showing no signs of pressure whatsoever.

Ningguang blinked her eyes, finding it quite unbelievable.

Brother Fang Xun was going to deal with the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard?

The next second, Ningguang saw Fang Xun cross his arms over his chest. As he uncrossed them, a rock spine shot out from the ground.

At the same time, a Jade Shield appeared on Fang Xun's body.

Facing the incoming rock spray from the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard, Fang Xun's expression was calm.

He met the rock spray head-on, blocking it alone, and walked step by step towards the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard.

The Jade Shield around his body did not dim from the rock spray; instead, it emitted a strong luster.

Fang Xun's steps were slow, appearing as if he were strolling leisurely.

This scene stunned everyone present.

This foreigner with the peculiar clothing style had actually blocked the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard's rock spray by himself!

The retreating figure gave them a sense of profound security!

In his astonishment, the blacksmith recalled Fang Xun's earlier words about dealing with the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard and immediately shook his head repeatedly.

"It's no use! This Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard is incredibly tough; ordinary weapons can't even scratch it. You'd need a peerless weapon to even wound it!"

In fact, the blacksmith hadn't finished speaking.

Even a peerless weapon would only be able to wound the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard.

Killing it was simply impossible.

He didn't dare to say this aloud, fearing it would crush their morale.

Little Ningguang's heart tightened, and she looked at Fang Xun's retreating back with great concern.

"I know the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard isn't something an ordinary person can handle,"

"But I believe in Brother Fang Xun..."

"If it's Brother Fang Xun, then he can definitely do it!"

Ningguang was unwavering.

Naturally, Fang Xun, who was ahead, heard these words.

A faint smile appeared on his face.

Unconsciously, Little Ningguang seemed to have become his little fan girl?

Since that was the case, he should finish this quickly.

At this moment, Fang Xun noticed a common spear lying on the ground.

He hadn't drawn any powerful weapons yet, so he'd just have to make do with this one.

Even though the weapon was mediocre, it would suffice.

It was more than enough to deal with an Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard.

Fang Xun picked up the spear from the ground and closed his eyes.

When he opened them again, his eyes were like slowly flowing molten gold.

The intense light shone brilliantly even in the darkness.

At the same time, the spear in Fang Xun's hand suddenly burst into flames with a whoosh.

The flames soared into the sky, like a rising dragon.

The Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard sensed the terrifying aura emanating from the human before it.

It roared furiously and leaped high, intending to destroy Fang Xun with its hardened forelimbs.

However, Fang Xun was completely unfazed by the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard's attack.

The next second, Fang Xun swung the spear in his hand, drawing a sharp arc forward.

The flames on the spear rose into the air like a dragon, even causing the air to crackle and pop as it burned.

Eat well, drink well, and have a good journey!

Five-star skill: Mystic Aegis!

Although the mediocre weapon couldn't unleash the full power of Mystic Aegis, it was more than enough to deal with the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard.

With a single thrust, the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard instantly turned into ashes and scattered in the wind.
