How do you want to die?
Jiang Xiaofeng looked at the Doctor and said calmly.
"You're still staying in Sumeru instead of running back to Snezhnaya."
"What? You think you can't escape and are planning a desperate fight?"
Jiang Xiaofeng dropped the Doctor on the ground.
"Idiot..."
"Human experimentation, they didn't even try to hide it, they just had to get discovered."
"How much do you think it would cost to buy your life?"
The Doctor slowly rose to his feet. " The Snezhnaya does not believe in tears."
"I will not betray the Empress either."
Jiang Xiaofeng: "..."
"Click!"
Jiang Xiaofeng kicked the Doctor's calf and broke it, causing the Doctor to kneel on the ground.
"If you show weakness, I'll give you a quick death."
Jiang Xiaofeng calmly pointed at the Doctor.
"Kill me or torture me, it's all up to you."
"No other information could possibly come out of my mouth."
Jiang Xiaofeng smiled.
"Intelligence?"
"Do I really need that intelligence to deal with the Snezhnaya?"
Jiang Xiaofeng took out a ball of light.
"Look at your former good La Signora, she's doing quite well here with me now."
Inside the sphere of light, the La Signora's soul remained motionless.
"Surprised? I'm now a master at manipulating souls. How about I extract your soul too, making you immortal?"
The Doctor's eyes lit up.
Jiang Xiaofeng sneered and kicked the Doctor away.
"What are you dreaming about?"
"You're dead today. This body will never be free. Your knowledge, your soul, they're all mine."
"Take a good feel for the pain of human experimentation."
"Since you were able to survive being sliced into pieces, you are undoubtedly a perfect experimental subject."
"Let's start with you, experimenting with the 'plague'..."
With a wave of his hand, Jiang Xiaofeng unleashed a torrent of Void Tendrils that spread wildly, enveloping the Doctor and dragging him into the Void.
Jiang Xiaofeng arrived at the alchemy base in the snow-capped mountains.
The Collector needs no sleep; he continues to produce the Panacea day after day, attempting to use Panacea to control a new Hollow Knight.
"Stop with all that, I have good news."
Jiang Xiaofeng told the Collector to stop the experiment and listen to him.
Jiang Xiaofeng took out an Void Eye: "Keep this Void Eye with you; it will ensure you are not swallowed by the Void."
"I captured someone in the Void; his body can be used as experimental material. If you have the time, research the plague."
The Collector's eyes lit up. "An epidemic?"
"Your the King, is it the plague that once plagued the kingdom?"
Jiang Xiaofeng nodded. "Although the moon is gone, I have the Void."
"Let the Void be the boundary; everyone except the believers in the Void will be infected by the plague."
"Oh, don't worry, this is just a last resort, we won't use it."
"Yes, human experimentation. If you get any leads, just go for it. This person's body can be replicated."
"He did it himself, hoping that with human trials, your research progress would accelerate."
After saying that, Jiang Xiaofeng left.
The Collector looked at the Void Eye, activated its power, and entered the Void.
In the dark world, a man hangs there, motionless.
"Is this the experimental subject His Majesty the King spoke of?"
The Collector, seeing the motionless the Doctor, simply took out a small knife. "Then, let's begin the experiment..."
Jiang Xiaofeng returned to Anna's side, snuggled into the covers, and fell asleep holding Anna.
the next day.
Jiang Xiaofeng pushed in the breakfast prepared by the nun, kissed Anna, and left.
Jiang Xiaofeng arrived at Sumeru City and released Durin from the Void.
After so much time and effort from the Void, Durin has been thoroughly subdued and dares not disobey.
"You can play around in Sumeru City as you please. When you're done, go sleep at the highest point of that tree branch, but don't hurt anyone."
"Do you understand?"
Durin nodded quickly.
Jiang Xiaofeng turned and left, arriving at Guyun Stone Forest.
" Osial, how's the evolution going?"
Osial's once smooth body is now covered with diamond-shaped scales.
The snake's head also changed drastically, with two pairs of small horns emerging from the top of its head, and its teeth becoming sharper.
"It hasn't evolved into the dragon form you wanted yet, what's wrong?"
Jiang Xiaofeng shook his head. " Beisht is coming to Liyue Harbor."
Osial was taken aback.
"Then, should I bring her along?"
Jiang Xiaofeng shook his head.
"Yes, but no."
"I need you to appear, to take over from Beisht and deal with Liyue Harbor once again."
"Stop it too late. Murder is acceptable, but not too much."
"Our cell reserves are sufficient."
Osial nodded, then disappeared into the water.
Meanwhile, because Jiang Xiaofeng took over, the Eremites prevented Ying, who had not been recorded in the New Void, from entering the city when guarding the city gates.
Pana only appeared after Hedive arrived, giving Ying a new Akasha Terminal.
"Black... and it's called the Void... have we been tricked again...?"
Paimon looked at Ying with some difficulty.
Ying shook her head. "Let's accept it."
"We need to ask Hedive what he needs that led him to seek our help."
Pana watched as the two took the Akasha Terminal and said, "To activate the Akasha Terminal, simply silently recite 'May I hear the voice of divine wisdom'."
Soon, the two were recorded in a new Void.
Pana nodded and left.
Hedive then smiled apologetically, "Gentlemen, you've arrived too late. You don't need my help anymore."
Ying's eyes widened.
"Hey! Hedive! We turned down the invitation from the Liyue Qixing to help you, and now you're saying you don't need our help anymore!"
Paimon stood with his hands on his hips, puffing out his cheeks, while Ying looked at Paimon, somewhat speechless.
The Jade Chamber was being rebuilt, Ningguang did invite them, but there were still several days to go; it wasn't that she had given up on the invitation.
Paimon was clearly unhappy and wanted to extort money from Hedive.
Ying didn't say anything, watching Paimon and Hedive bicker.
Soon, Hedive clasped his hands together and raised them above his head. "I was wrong! As an apology, how about I treat you to a meal at a restaurant!"
Paimon nodded in satisfaction. "That's more like it!"
fluorescent. "..."
Ying Paimon over. "You were won over with just one meal?"
Paimon swayed and struggled, saying, "We haven't tried any of Sumeru's delicacies yet, it's a great deal!"
Ying sighed and released Paimon.
"One meal is fine, it'll just be one meal."
" Hedive, I agree."
Hedive nodded. "Don't worry, you two will definitely love the food in Sumeru!"
After releasing Osial, Jiang Xiaofeng arrived at Liyue Harbor.
Seeing the two Eldest sitting at Tian Tie Zui's place listening to the storyteller, Jiang Xiaofeng couldn't help but chuckle.
Then, Jiang Xiaofeng arrived at the Yuehai Pavilion.
Ningguang and her three secretaries work here.
Jiang Xiaofeng suddenly appeared in Ningguang's office, sat on the sofa next to her, and crossed his legs.
"Where are Shenhe and Ganyu now?"
