The white-haired woman looked at Jiang Xiaofeng on the Teyvat, then closed her eyes again.
They can't cause any big waves...
Jiang Xiaofeng, of course, wouldn't notice that the intelligent "Big Duck" had spotted him.
Of course, even if they really noticed Jiang Xiaofeng, they weren't afraid.
If all else fails, I'll hide in the Abyss. Heavenly Principles catch me then?
Or, I could just go to another world...
Ahem, I've gone off on a tangent.
In short, Jiang Xiaofeng completely fused the Philosopher's Stone and the Void Heart into his body.
The benefit is that you become stronger, literally.
The downside is that if I were to change into a new body, I would no longer have a continuous source of Abyss power.
but...
Jiang Xiaofeng glanced at the Ruin Guard series and Rifthounds in his backpack.
Yeah, it's nothing serious.
These replacement bodies have specific uses and are not for everyday use.
Jiang Xiaofeng stretched.
Then, the King's Box was taken out.
Jiang Xiaofeng looked around and noticed that Mondstadt City could be seen in the distance.
Jiang Xiaofeng estimated that this place was near the Stormterror's Lair.
Jiang Xiaofeng glanced at the sky and saw that the sun was already close to the horizon.
So, Jiang Xiaofeng decided that no matter what he had to do next, he should rest for the night first...
Jiang Xiaofeng dropped the King's Box on the ground, enlarged it, and jumped inside...
Just as Jiang Xiaofeng emerged from the Abyss...
A little guy in Mondstadt City suddenly looked in the direction Jiang Xiaofeng had appeared.
Then, ignoring the pleas of the other drinkers to stay, he jumped off his chair and left the Cat's Tail Tavern.
Margaret watched the little guy leave the tavern without a word, then thought for a moment and decided to let Diona go home early and accompany him, just in case something happened.
After all, this little guy is more attractive to customers than the tavern's cats...
That's right, this little guy is the Hollow Knight.
Or perhaps it would be better to call him the Knight.
The Knight walked straight to the Mondstadt City Mondstadt City left without looking back.
Diona secretly followed the Knight, wanting to see where the Knight went.
After all, the Knight had been in Mondstadt City for so long, and apart from the Cat's Tail Tavern and the Hilichurl in the wild, he hadn't gone anywhere else, always going back and forth between those two points.
Diona was very curious about this sudden trip to another place.
That's why I didn't stay at the bar to mix drinks.
The major undertaking to destroy Mondstadt Winery... can wait!
The Knight had already spotted Diona, but simply chose not to bother with her and continued heading towards Jiang Xiaofeng's location.
The Knight moved very fast, and even Diona, with her special bloodline, was finding it difficult to keep up.
With darkness falling and them almost at Springvale, Diona had no choice but to go home and ask her father if he could ask Uncle Hunter to watch over the Knight...
Seeing that Diona had slowed down, the Knight showed no sign of stopping, continuing to charge forward, flashing with black light.
Along the way, whether they encountered wild beasts or Hilichurl, the Knight pierced them with a single nail and turned them into Mora, which he then stored away.
After all, with these Mora, the Knight could find a blacksmith to forge a better short sword, instead of the weapon he was holding that he didn't even know how it was forged.
The Knight kept charging forward, quickly crossing Wolvendom and heading towards the western cliffs of Mondstadt.
Suddenly, the Knight stopped.
He could no longer feel the call from the Abyss.
That's right, Jiang Xiaofeng's " Void Heart " summoned the Knight.
Regardless of how this Void Heart was born, it will attract the Knight born from "eggshells".
The Knight stopped at a cliff.
It was already getting dark.
The Knight slowly walked to the edge of the cliff, gazing at the brightly lit Mondstadt City in the distance.
Then, he slowly sat down.
The Knight gazed at the bustling Mondstadt City and slowly lowered his head...
The Knight fell asleep.
No Hilichurl came to bother them; they were all scared away by the Knight's methods.
So, what is Jiang Xiaofeng doing?
Jiang Xiaofeng is trying to figure out how to get into the Queen's bed.
"Get out of here!"
The Queen clutched her blanket.
"What's wrong? Aren't I your husband?"
Jiang Xiaofeng was puzzled.
"Didn't you complain about how I look? Then go find Yima and Paimon!"
You know you don't look very good like this, right?
Jiang Xiaofeng's eyes lit up. "Are you serious?"
The Queen:"?"
The Queen grabbed a pillow and threw it at Jiang Xiaofeng: "Get out! Don't ever come back!"
Jiang Xiaofeng dodged the pillow, picked it up, threw it back, and left the Queen's room.
The Queen caught the pillow that flew back and slowly lowered her hand.
Then, he slumped down and hugged his knees.
Jiang Xiaofeng temporarily left the Queen's room.
The Collector is really resourceful; he actually opened a room right on the bank's wall...
Oh, according to the Collector's description, "great alchemy"...
Jiang Xiaofeng arrived at the middle of the first floor, where a huge space that had not yet been modified could be clearly seen below the large hole.
(There are three levels in total. The first level has a red door, the second level has blue and green doors, and the third level is a newly opened area.)
Jiang Xiaofeng was still deep in thought when the Collector emerged.
"My king, those three roads have been cleared; any place where monsters might emerge has been razed..."
Jiang Xiaofeng nodded.
"Well done."
"We can put the bank expansion on hold for now. I'll ask an expert to help us in a while."
Jiang Xiaofeng thought of the Vision.
As long as it has the shape of a house, a the Collector can decorate it in a way that makes it look less like a simple stone house...
Hey, looking at it this way, the Collector is like Doraemon.
Jiang Xiaofeng turned his head and looked at the Collector.
"The most important thing now is to turn the Queen back into her original form, understand?"
"This issue is more important than the housing problem."
The Collector nodded slightly.
"I know, Your Majesty."
Jiang Xiaofeng patted the Collector on the shoulder.
"After all, without the Queen's approval, it's not easy for me to go looking for other women..."
The Collector stared at the direction Jiang Xiaofeng had left, his eyes rolling back like a dead fish.
"I knew it..."
"May our new king replace his pursuit of immortality with his current thought."
"This is much better than before..."
Jiang Xiaofeng went to the Queen's room again.
"Is my wife still awake?"
Jiang Xiaofeng peeked inside.
"Get lost! Who's your wife?"
"Didn't you go to find Yima and the others?"
"Aren't they more human-like than I am?"
The Empress pointed at Jiang Xiaofeng and scolded him.
Jiang Xiaofeng pinched the bridge of his nose.
So, if he weren't genuinely restless, he wouldn't want to deal with these complicated and unnecessary relationships.
There's no way around it; everyone needs to have some kind of pursuit in life.
"I was just joking."
"I went to find the Collector, intending to take him to the alchemist of this world to help you restore you to your original state."
"After all, I want to see what you used to be like..."
As he spoke, Jiang Xiaofeng took out a skull.
"Your head."
"When you underwent the cyborg surgery, your head was removed..."
Jiang Xiaofeng shook his head.
What about mature artificial human technology?
It would be better to use my incomplete the Beheaded technology; as long as I get a body transplant, I can live forever.
The Empress looked at the skull. "..."
Are you a pervert?
"You don't like it? Fine then."
Jiang Xiaofeng threw the skull out the door, and a scream rang out.
" The Collector, you were peeking, weren't you!"
Jiang Xiaofeng walked to the Queen's bedside and sat down.
"You're still my wife, my legal wife! Even if I'm a shameless scoundrel and want to find other women, I'll have to ask your opinion first..."
The Empress sneered, "What if I don't allow it?"
"Then I'll just have to sneak a little..."
"You bastard..."
The Empress raised her hand to strike Jiang Xiaofeng, but Jiang Xiaofeng grabbed her hand.
"I've never seen you wear this before, Your the Queen. It must be your pajamas."
"I didn't realize you were so well-endowed, the Queen..."
Jiang Xiaofeng laughed.
Without the cloak-like outer garment to conceal her figure, the more one looked at the Queen, the more... ahem.
The Queen's voice was noticeably cold, though her tone was cheerful. "So what? Want to experience it?"
Jiang Xiaofeng smiled, and his armor vanished instantly. "You said it yourself..."
"Wait, didn't you dislike my face?..."
"Don't forget, you said it yourself, I'm a pervert..."
As people live longer, they always want to pursue something different...
"Uh..."
