Wendy was taken back into the Void by Jiang Xiaofeng, and then Venti took this familiar yet unfamiliar friend to visit the present Mondstadt.
Jiang Xiaofeng's figure flashed and he arrived in Liyue.
The two Geo Archon have already met.
At this moment, the two Eldest sat down at the storyteller's table, leisurely sipping their tea.
Jiang Xiaofeng: "?"
Jiang Xiaofeng walked over and sat down. "Mr. Zhongli already knows who this is?"
Zhongli nodded slightly.
Morax then said, "Friend, don't worry. I won't linger in Liyue Harbor in this world for long. I'll be going to Mondstadt in a week."
"At that time, I will present my authority."
Jiang Xiaofeng: "..."
No, I never wanted your authority.
Since you've already said that...
Jiang Xiaofeng nodded.
"Then, Mr. Zhongli, can you accept someone who looks exactly like you from your past self walking around Liyue Harbor?"
Zhongli said calmly, "What's the harm? I'm just treating him like a brother."
Morax nodded.
Seeing the two demons coexisting peacefully, Jiang Xiaofeng finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Thankfully, there's no need for resurrection Guizhong...
Jiang Xiaofeng stood up. "Then I won't disturb your enjoyment any longer."
Jiang Xiaofeng turned around and arrived at Narukami Island in the blink of an eye.
Raiden Makoto was helplessly answering the three guys' questions at Grand Narukami Shrine, while Yae Miko and Kitsune Saiguu sat helplessly to the side.
In the sky, Raiden Ei, wielding a naginata, and Raiden Shogun, wielding Musou Isshin, are locked in battle.
"?"
Jiang Xiaofeng looked at the duel between the two of us above, somewhat puzzled.
Are you two holding your weapons backwards?
Jiang Xiaofeng raised his hand to stop time and brought both Raiden Shogun to Grand Narukami Shrine.
Time continues to flow.
The two Electro Archon arrived at Grand Narukami Shrine in an instant, but their behaviors were quite different.
Raiden Shogun immediately abandoned his Musou Isshin and sat down next to Kitsune Saiguu, starting to eat the Tricolor Dango placed on the table.
Raiden Ei remained alert until his gaze fell upon his sister, at which point he relaxed.
"Alright, I'll make it short."
" Raiden Makoto, Raiden Ei, relinquish your Electro Archon authority, and I may allow you to walk the Teyvat in my timeline as ordinary people."
As expected, Raiden Makoto chose to relinquish power.
Raiden Ei was initially reluctant, but after Raiden Makoto said something to her, she readily handed over her power.
Jiang Xiaofeng looked at Raiden Shogun: "This Raiden Makoto, do you want to treat her like your older sister?"
"If I can't accept it, I'll go and Raiden Makoto at the Plane of Euthymia."
"I'm in a good mood right now, so answer me quickly."
After a while, two Raiden Makoto, two Raiden Ei, and a Raiden Shogun appeared at Grand Narukami Shrine.
Raiden Ei ran away from the Plane of Euthymia and started catching up with her sister.
Jiang Xiaofeng rubbed Raiden Shogun's face. "Is Eternity some kind of good thing? Obviously not. No one but me can achieve Eternity. Why don't you pledge your allegiance to me..."
Raiden Ei interrupted Jiang Xiaofeng impatiently, "This is my body, and also my Raiden Shogun. Don't you dare lay a finger on her!"
Seeing that the human trafficking attempt had failed, Jiang Xiaofeng shrugged and looked at the large group of people in the room, feeling somewhat troubled.
"Get back to your positions and do your jobs. Seeing you all sitting here is a nuisance."
After saying that, Jiang Xiaofeng turned around and left Narukami Island.
Watatsumi Island.
Jiang Xiaofeng went directly behind Orobashi and threw the corpse of a large white snake covered in Blood Coral to Orobashi Jiang Xiaofeng.
"Quickly absorb your own power."
After saying that, Jiang Xiaofeng left.
Mondstadt.
Decarabian looked at everything in Mondstadt in silence.
"The smiles on these people's faces are genuine..."
"This is a scene that would never happen under my command in Mondstadt..."
Did I really do something wrong?
Decarabian was questioning his existence, Jiang Xiaofeng suddenly appeared.
"You did nothing wrong; the people of Mondstadt are the ones who are wrong."
"Your intentions and actions were both good, even perfect."
"But it's too perfect, which has caused the Mondstadt people to become dissatisfied with the wind wall you built."
As he spoke, Jiang Xiaofeng took out a book and handed it to Decarabian.
"Look at the history books; in them, you're portrayed as a tyrant."
"His harsh oppression of the Mondstadt people is comparable to my former ways."
But is that really the case?
Jiang Xiaofeng led Decarabian to the square.
"Without the wind wall you built, the Mondstadt people would have perished in the endless blizzards long ago."
"You think their bowing is out of respect for you, the demon god, but in reality, they can't withstand the pressure of your wind wall and are forced to live with their backs bent."
Ironically, not a single person, when they met you, mustered the courage to tell you that the reason they couldn't stand up was because the wind wall was too strong; they immediately concluded that you were a tyrant.
"Therefore, the wind spirit Venti, and his friends, rallied the three great houses of the time— the Ragnvindr, the Gunnhildr, and the Imunlaukr —and overthrew your rule."
"A group of ordinary people, ordinary people with no special abilities, who couldn't even withstand the wind wall you released, yet they dared to dream of killing a god."
" Decarabian, how do you think you died?"
Decarabian looked at the history books and listened to Jiang Xiaofeng's words, remaining silent for a while.
"That's right, your only option is to give up your power and choose to die."
"Because your beliefs collapsed, the Mondstadt people no longer loved you. You felt you hadn't done enough, so you gave everything you had to the wind spirits on the Resistance side."
"This is history."
"That's also your timeline, your ending."
"You're already dead in this timeline; you can live in this timeline now."
Decarabian raised his head.
"You want my power, don't you?"
Jiang Xiaofeng shrugged.
His intention was definitely not for the authority of these gods, but Morax reminded him.
Rather than directly extracting their power, it's better to absorb their authority.
Decarabian nodded.
I want to explore Mondstadt City.
"Hmm... Come see me in a week."
"At that time, I will offer up my authority with both hands..."
Jiang Xiaofeng nodded, turned around, and left.
Jiang Xiaofeng arrived in the Void and extracted the powers from all the remaining demon gods, except for the gods of the other four kingdoms, and absorbed them.
Jiang Xiaofeng then threw the remaining empty shells into the Void, where they transformed into Void creatures.
A week later, Jiang Xiaofeng held three powers in his hands.
"Pretty good strength."
"But it doesn't seem to be helping me much..."
After much deliberation, Jiang Xiaofeng decided to abandon the absurd idea of bestowing these powers upon others and instead absorb them himself.
Giving away power that's useless to you as a favor—what kind of idiot would do that?!
