Sea God Tang San stood there in a daze, but the many people aboard the Jade Chamber did not pause because of it.
Though the Jade Chamber's tremor was not particularly violent, in the otherwise tranquil Jade Chamber, it was like oil hitting a hot pan, making many people react at once.
At once.
Figures clad in black robes filed out from the Jade Chamber.
Their uniforms were primarily black, dark cyan, and blue, accented with gilded trim and pure white lining. They wore Chinese-style stand-collar, asymmetrical short jackets paired with dark shorts, giving them the air of youthful martial heroes.
The outfits appeared to be standardized, and their materials looked quite expensive.
So these people had scraped together the wealth obtained by exploiting the so-called Liyue citizens, perhaps even costing many lives, to build this floating island?"
Seeing this, Sea God Tang San's sense of justice surged, and a chilling glint flashed in his eyes.
Very good!
Exploiting the masses!
Preying upon the people!
Every last one of these people deserved to die!
"Who are you? Don't you know the Jade Chamber has been sealed and no one is allowed in or out right now?"
The uniformed figures quickly surrounded Sea God Tang San. Their eyes were filled with vigilance as they stared coldly at him, though none dared make a rash move.
Everyone knew that the Jade Chamber was currently sealed off and inaccessible, yet this oddly dressed fellow carrying a weapon had somehow flown straight up here?
Could he be a wind-element Vision holder?
But—Liyue Harbor was only so large. Anyone with a Vision could usually be identified with a little asking around.
Their commerce guild in particular was among the wealthiest in all of Liyue Harbor, yet they had never heard of anyone with a wind-element Vision capable of flying up to the Jade Chamber.
"Heh heh!"
Hearing this, Sea God Tang San gave a disdainful laugh and said sarcastically, "You won't let anyone come up because you're afraid they'll discover you're preying upon the people, aren't you?"
Everyone, "???"
What was that supposed to mean?
They looked at one another in confusion, unable to understand what Sea God Tang San meant for a moment.
Their reason for coming to the Jade Chamber was simple.
Ningguang was suspected of abusing her authority for personal gain, embezzlement, and bribery. Therefore, the Jade Chamber needed to be sealed off, while specialists were sent to verify its construction materials, interior decorations, and stored materials.
Their Feiyun Commerce Guild was naturally an authority in this field, which was why they had been invited by the Tianxuan Star to conduct the inspection.
But.
The Jade Chamber was simply too large. Coupled with the issues surrounding its materials, it would be impossible to investigate everything thoroughly in less than ten days or half a month.
"What are you talking about?"
After exchanging confused looks for so long and still failing to grasp Sea God Tang San's point, someone finally shouted, "I don't care where you came from."
"Ningguang has been removed from office and placed under investigation, while the Jade Chamber is undergoing asset appraisal. Both matters have already been approved by the Liyue Qixing."
"Get down from here now, and we can pretend nothing happened!"
Rather than getting angry, Sea God Tang San laughed. "Heh!"
"You've truly taken the words shameless and brazen to their fullest extent!"
"You seize someone else's assets for yourselves, then grandly invent such excuses."
"I have never seen anyone so utterly shameless!"
After that round of sarcasm, the people of the Feiyun Commerce Guild all darkened. "Kid, you're really refusing a toast only to drink a forfeit!"
"Take him down! We'll send him to the Millelith office later to answer for his crimes!"
As soon as the words fell.
Several people from the Feiyun Commerce Guild charged forward.
However.
The moment they drew close, Sea God Tang San snorted coldly and swung the Sea God's Trident in his hand, severing them all in two.
The Sea God's Trident alone, weighing one hundred and eight thousand jin, would not have possessed such power. But combined with Tang San's divine power of the Sea God, these ordinary people without Visions could not withstand even the slightest bit of it.
"Where did this freak come from!?"
Seeing this, the other Feiyun Commerce Guild members preparing to attack were stunned. "Is that a Vision?"
"No, that's not right. There isn't any elemental power from a Vision on him!"
"Run! He's a monster!"
Sea God Tang San had originally held his head high, ready to receive the awestruck gazes of these people from another world.
But he had never expected it.
That one word, monster, nearly broke his composure!
A monster?
What the hell!?
You audacious madmen from another world dared call him a monster? You truly deserved to die!
Behold my Blue Silver Entanglement!
Almost the instant the thought crossed his mind, blue light bloomed from Sea God Tang San's body.
In an instant!
All the Feiyun Commerce Guild personnel trying to flee had their legs bound by the Blue Silver Emperor. With a thud, they fell to the ground, seeing stars from the impact.
But—
There was no further effect.
"Hm?"
Sea God Tang San's gaze narrowed. After a brief pause, he looked somewhat astonished. "The physiques of these people from another world actually ignore Parasite, the second soul skill of my Blue Silver Emperor?"
When he activated Blue Silver Entanglement just now, he had instinctively used Parasite, his second soul skill as well. But—judging from their condition, they had not been parasitized at all?
What was going on?
Sea God Tang San was somewhat bewildered.
"Who dares cause trouble in Liyue?"
Sea God Tang San abruptly raised his head, his pupils contracting. "What?"
"Two Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts!?"
The newcomers were two enormous, nonhuman figures.
Upon closer inspection, they were Moon Carver and Mountain Shaper!
Two Liyue Adepti!
"What do you mean, soul beasts?"
Moon Carver snorted coldly. "I knew long ago that foreign freaks like you were up to no good!"
Seeing these nonhuman beasts speak human words once again.
Sea God Tang San's pupils contracted further and further as he muttered, "No, that's not right. They aren't Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts—but how can these two things speak in beast form?"
"Foreign freak, stop acting like an idiot!"
Mountain Shaper snorted coldly. "Today, you won't be leaving Liyue Harbor!"
"I said so!"
The two Liyue Adepti faced Sea God Tang San!
This scene immediately drew the attention of most living beings on the Douluo Continent.
At first.
They could only use one standard to gauge Teyvat's strength: La Signora, the eighth-ranked Fatui Harbinger, had utterly crushed Chen Fan, a Peerless Douluo, beating him until he could barely fight back.
But.
There was also a gap between a Peerless Douluo and a god!
And now!
Two Liyue Adepti, who stood above the Liyue Qixing, had personally appeared to deal with Sea God Tang San!
Who exactly—would be stronger?
"Eh, wait, what is Chen Fan doing!?"
At this moment.
Among the Heaven Dou Empire's group, Ma Hongjun, whose injuries had only recovered by around thirty percent and who could no longer resist going out to reunite with the others, suddenly noticed Chen Fan's image in the sky screen.
Flender, who was with him, was also taken aback. "Hm?"
"Where is this place?"
"Why does everything look so golden? Could it be—gold??"
Teyvat, Liyue!
Chen Fan stopped walking and exhaled a breath of foul air. "Finally shook off Rex Lapis—I've made it to the Golden House!"
