The original god of the Jyota Jinchūriki

Chapter 63: Wind Dragon Incident Postscript

"Barbatos, you..."

"I know, Tevarin, you've suffered a lot these years. If I had discovered it earlier, none of this would have happened."

Wendy gently touched Tevarin's face, her tone full of tenderness. Her words were like a gentle breeze, making Jean and Diluc beside them feel as if they were in the gentle spring breeze. At this moment, the two seemed to have forgotten their troubles, and the only thing left between heaven and earth was the wind blowing towards them.

But both of them were determined people. After a brief moment of confusion, their eyes quickly regained clarity. Diluk looked at Venti deeply. This seemingly unreliable God of Wind was far from being as simple as he imagined. Diluk even suspected that the loss of power mentioned by the God of Wind was just a lie.

"No, Barbatos..."

"Don't worry, I'm back and I won't let you go through this kind of thing again."

Wendy's eyes became firm, and he made up his mind not to fall asleep again in the next few years. In addition to making up for Tevarin's pain over the years, he also vaguely sensed that some changes seemed to be taking place in the continent of Teyvat, and he was worried that his people would be in danger in this change.

"Barbatos, I..."

"Your story will once again be told, Tevarin, and the greatest bard in the world will once again compose poetry for his dragon friend."

Thinking that his old friend was almost forgotten by the people of Mondstadt, Wendy felt that he needed to do something. It was time for the best bard in the world to pluck his harp.

"Fuck you Barbatos, I want you to talk to the girl behind me and stop stabbing my legs with your sword. I'm back to normal!"

"And, do something, Barbatos!"

Tevarin opened his mouth and roared at Wendy. This action might have pulled the wound on his back. Tevarin was in so much pain that he fell to the ground and couldn't get up.

Behind Tevarin, Ying put away the edgeless sword in her hand awkwardly. She originally wanted to take this opportunity to get some of Tevarin's meat. It was not that she wanted to eat it, she just wanted to take revenge on Tevarin.

Unexpectedly, Tevarin's physical resistance was quite high. The edgeless sword in her hand could not penetrate him but was discovered by Tevarin. Not only was Ying embarrassed, but she also became more determined to change for a better weapon.

Speaking of which, Liyue seems to be rich in mineral resources. Perhaps she can find suitable weapons in Liyue. And since Ruo Jin is so familiar with Liyue, she can trouble him then.

While Ying was thinking about changing to a weapon worth a few Moras, Tevarin had already been treated by Wendy. Except for his feathers being scorched by the fire elements produced by the shells, there was nothing wrong with his body.

After his body was healed, Tevarin immediately turned his head and looked behind him. After glaring at Ying fiercely, Tevarin flapped his wings and flew into the sky. If Ying had not helped him purify the dirty blood and was his savior, he would have sprayed a breath of wind element at Ying to let Ying know how powerful he was.

Looking at Tevarin's slightly flustered figure, Wendy looked at Ying with resentment. He shouldn't have let Ying take action without asking clearly. Now, it might take Tevarin some time to come out of the shadow.

"Um, Ying, are we hated by Tevarin? He is too old to beat us up secretly, right?"

Seeing Tevarin glare at Ying before leaving, Paimon seemed a little nervous and hid behind Ying. Wendy felt helpless. Regardless of age, anyone would feel unhappy after being bombed twice in just a few days.

"It's okay. We will run to Liyue in a few days. With the Rock Emperor here, Tevarin won't dare to do anything."

Ying had long learned a lot about Liyue from Ruojin, and was even more impressed by Ruojin's praise for Liyue's god, the Rock King. Ying was already eager to go to Liyue, a commercial powerhouse, to earn some money. The more she learned about Liyue, the stronger her desire to stay in Liyue for a short period of time became, because Ruojin said that as long as she didn't mind the unlucky job, he could find her a job that paid well, was close to home, provided food, accommodation, and work assignments.

Ying's answer made Wendy's mouth twitch. Is he, the God of Wind, so shameless? Although he really couldn't beat the old man, he could still make the decision on such matters, and Tevarin was still his dependent. Shouldn't you come to him?
"Anyway, the Wind Dragon incident has finally been resolved. I've really troubled you, Traveler, recently."

With one burden removed from her heart, Qin felt a lot more relaxed. Now all she had to do was hold a commendation meeting for Ying, and the Wind Demon Dragon incident would come to a successful conclusion.

The only ones left to deal with were the Fatui in Mondstadt. Jyn, who had just relaxed for a while, felt heavy again. Except for Kaeya and others who were on good terms with her, the rest of the Knights of Favonius had all chosen to compromise with the Fatui.

This made Qin very helpless, but the identities and backgrounds of those high-level officials were extremely strong. There was only the confession of those guards of the Lawrence family and no substantial evidence. Qin had no way to take action against those people for the time being. Wait, now that Lord Fengshen was here, perhaps, she could ask Lord Fengshen for help?
"Hey, don't think about me. Mondstadt is free. Even gods cannot interfere with the freedom of Mondstadt, otherwise freedom will lose its meaning. Come on, girl. I'm rooting for you."

Qin turned her gaze to Wendy, Wendy blinked and covered Qin's mouth with a "hey". Qin smiled bitterly. What their Wind God said was indeed right. Freedom interfered with by gods is not real freedom at all. Alas, it is not known whether Mond is lucky or unfortunate to have such a god.

"Are we going to take action against the noble high-ranking members of the Knights?"

From the few words between Jean and Venti, Diluk keenly perceived Jean's intention. The people around him were trustworthy, so Jean did not hide it and nodded and acknowledged it directly.

"Humph, this should have been done a long time ago. The Knights have been almost hollowed out by the termites."

"Senior, the main thing is that they really went too far this time. They have deceived the Grand Master for so many years, and it's time for them to pay the price."

Qin gritted her teeth with anger flashing in her eyes. The news she got from the Lawrence family guards was just an incident that happened a few years ago. After all these years, who knows how many similar things have happened in Mond.

As a member of the Gunhild family who was taught from childhood to dedicate her whole life to Mond, Jyn had always been dissatisfied with the Mond high-level officials who did nothing. Now that she knew that these high-level officials were secretly corrupt and accepting bribes, Jyn could no longer bear it.

"I will help with this matter. If you want to eliminate Mondstadt, it is an absolutely correct decision to deal with the internal affairs of the Knights first."

"Then, senior, do you want to return to the Knights? The Knights can confer honors on you again. Everyone in the Knights will definitely recognize you, senior."

Diluk's recognition made Jean's eyes light up. The Knights Temperance was short of manpower right now, and it would be a great help if Diluk could return to the Knights Temperance.

"The people of the Leggenfend family never need the approval of others to guide their own path, and the current Knights have no right to confer honors on me."

Diluk interrupted Qin coldly, tidied up his slightly messy clothes, and left the Wind Dragon Ruins without looking back. Although he did not have the evidence of those "worms" who embezzled and accepted bribes many years ago, someone in Mond had it.

"Master Diluk seems to have a lot of complaints about the Knights."

Paimon scratched his head in confusion. It was puzzling that Diluk was from Mondstadt but was so unfriendly to the Knights. Seeing that Jean was in a low mood, Ying tugged at Paimon's clothes to signal him not to continue.

Looking at Diluk's departing back, Jean pursed her lips with a gloomy expression. Venti's joy was also diluted a lot. He knew a little about what happened that year because he had used some tricks these days. It was understandable for Diluk to say such a thing to deprive a hero of his glory.
