"With a thousand rocks as our walls, we shall stand firm!"
Seeing that even the three Vision holders were faintly being suppressed, the Millelith soldiers worried that the fellow before them might suddenly lash out and hurt someone. They hurriedly surrounded him to stop this flying fellow from... running...
Oh, right. This fellow could fly.
The Millelith suddenly felt helpless.
Could they really not stop him?
"Is this an emergency?"
Just then, a pleasant voice rang out.
"Lady Keqing!"
The Millelith soldiers' eyes lit up. Their savior had arrived!
"Lady Keqing, this is the troublemaker!"
"Go get him, Lady Keqing! This fellow is no pushover!"
Jiang Xiaofeng turned toward the gap the crowd had opened, where a young woman appeared.
Cat ears, black stockings, shoulder-baring short sleeves...
You know your stuff, girl.
"Sir, why are you causing trouble in our Liyue Harbor?"
"What trouble have I caused?"
Jiang Xiaofeng spoke teasingly.
Since we're going to talk reason, let's talk...
"You caused... caused... uh..."
The Millelith soldiers kept shouting, but their voices gradually died away.
It seemed... he really hadn't caused any trouble?
From the beginning, it seemed that all this had happened simply because they thought the man before them looked like a bad person.
This was awkward.
"Lady Keqing..."
A troubled look appeared in the Millelith soldiers' eyes.
"It's all right."
Keqing's crisp reply soothed the soldiers.
She turned to Jiang Xiaofeng.
"I'm sorry, sir. Our Millelith were indeed at fault first. I apologize."
Jiang Xiaofeng watched her without a word.
Keqing continued, "However... you did take part in the street fight here, correct?"
Chongyun grew anxious at once.
"Lady Keqing, this person is very likely... huh?"
"...Don't say anything yet."
At some point, Xingqiu had moved closer and taken Chongyun's hand as he spoke to him.
"Please come with us, sir."
Keqing spoke.
"..."
Well, damn.
Back to this question again.
"What if I refuse?"
Jiang Xiaofeng asked teasingly.
He was now set on having a fight and wanted even less to go with them.
"Besides... aren't you going to do anything about this place?"
Jiang Xiaofeng pointed at Yanshang Teahouse.
"?"
Suddenly finding everyone looking at her, Chuyi felt a little flustered.
What did this have to do with her?
"This place exists with the Tianquan's tacit approval. It isn't under my jurisdiction."
Keqing shook her head.
"All right, it's not impossible to get me to go with you."
"Only..."
"What?"
Keqing asked.
"Beat me first, then we'll talk!"
Jiang Xiaofeng raised his hand and hurled a string of throwing knives at the surrounding Millelith soldiers and Keqing's group of four!
"Sword out, shadows follow!"
Keqing immediately unleashed her elemental burst to intercept the extremely dangerous throwing knives.
She didn't know why she felt this way, but she simply felt that getting injured by those knives would be very troublesome...
Clang, clang, clang...
All dozen or so throwing knives were blocked.
Keqing reappeared, holding the four-star weapon, Lion's Roar.
"Not bad."
Jiang Xiaofeng clapped his hands.
"You used your ultimate so early. How are you going to block... my attacks after this?"
Jiang Xiaofeng activated Wings of the Crow and Tornadic Aura, charging at Keqing!
Keqing was quick to react, throwing a Lightning Stiletto toward Jiang Xiaofeng in midair.
The skills Jiang Xiaofeng was using now were practically a cheese strategy.
Keqing had a hard time breaking through his skills to attack him.
But Keqing wasn't Jiang Xiaofeng's only opponent!
"Spirit Blade: Cloud-Parting Star!"
"Guhua Sword: Raincutter!"
"Take a look at my master's spearwork!"
The other three's attacks came one after another!
At the same time, Keqing teleported to her Lightning Stiletto, directly above Jiang Xiaofeng!
A plunging attack forced the airborne Jiang Xiaofeng down!
Chongyun's ice blades continually clashed with Jiang Xiaofeng's Tornadic Aura.
Xingqiu kept releasing Rain Swords, trying to apply Hydro to Jiang Xiaofeng.
Xiangling's Pyronado was also counteracting the rapid rotation of Tornadic Aura, while Xiangling tried to toss out the eager Guoba.
"So that's how it works..."
Jiang Xiaofeng looked thoughtfully at Keqing, who had forced him down.
Visions could not only turn elemental power into elemental skills, but also wrap it around the user for defense...
A new discovery.
With that thought, Jiang Xiaofeng leaped into the air again, deactivated Tornadic Aura, and grabbed a nearby eave.
"What, are you going to run?"
Keqing couldn't help asking as she watched him move.
"..."
Wearing the Hayabusa Gauntlets, Jiang Xiaofeng took out the Blood Sword.
He jumped down and charged at Xingqiu!
Xingqiu had intended to interrupt Jiang Xiaofeng's attack with another kick, but Jiang Xiaofeng jumped past him instead and slashed at his back!
"!"
Xingqiu could only turn and hold his sword across himself to block.
Crack!
The longsword in Xingqiu's hand snapped, and he leaped away from Jiang Xiaofeng, staring at the broken sword in surprise.
"That sword of yours... is incredibly sharp!"
Xingqiu couldn't help praising it.
Although Jiang Xiaofeng's fighting style had no method to it, those strange abilities were far too troublesome to deal with. They couldn't hurt him at all.
Without a word, Jiang Xiaofeng swung the Blood Sword at Xingqiu again in a horizontal slash!
Clang!
A purple longsword appeared in Xingqiu's hand, blocking Jiang Xiaofeng's attack.
"Sacrificial Sword?"
Jiang Xiaofeng muttered, activating Tornadic Aura again.
"!"
Xingqiu leaped swiftly away from Jiang Xiaofeng, looking at him in alarm and uncertainty.
Was he going to kill someone over a disagreement?!
"You! Submit to your execution!"
Chongyun's eyes nearly went red, and he unleashed his elemental burst again!
"Tch."
Jiang Xiaofeng flashed before Chongyun, raised his fist, and smashed it into the greatsword in Chongyun's hands.
Clang!
The Skyrider Greatsword shattered.
Jiang Xiaofeng had originally planned to break the White Tassel in Xiangling's hands next, but suddenly noticed that Chongyun hadn't retreated. Instead, he was trying to stick something onto him?
Jiang Xiaofeng threw a punch at Chongyun.
But a burst of golden light from the talisman in Chongyun's hand forced him back.
"What?"
Jiang Xiaofeng hadn't expected Chongyun to have a move like this.
Was this what you'd expect from an exorcist clan?
Suddenly, Jiang Xiaofeng sensed something and looked up.
Then Jiang Xiaofeng took flight again, activating Tornadic Aura once more.
Keqing suddenly thought of something and hurriedly shouted, "Everyone, fall back!"
The moment she spoke, all the surrounding Millelith soldiers quickly retreated.
"Get out of the plaza!"
Although Xingqiu and the other two were still puzzled, they obediently withdrew behind the plaza.
Has this qilin gone mad?!
Firing such a huge arrow in one go?
Does she think she's a mortar?
Jiang Xiaofeng silently cursed as he watched the pale blue ball of light rapidly descend.
Yes, this ball of light was an attack from Ganyu, the secretary at Yuehai Pavilion.
To avoid delaying Yuehai Pavilion's work, and having also misunderstood the Millelith soldier who came to report, she had fired an arrow directly from Yuehai Pavilion.
