Genshin Impact: The Vision of Gods Shines Again

This is good news for Mu Xian.

Whether it's revenge or distancing oneself from her later, it saves Mu Xian a lot of trouble.

Thinking of this, Mu Xian was about to turn and leave, but under the quiet night sky, a crisp clapping sound came.

The applause grew closer, causing Mu Xian to look in a certain direction.

In the darkness, a figure emerged, allowing Mu Xian to see the person's face clearly.

In an instant, Mu Xian's pupils contracted, and the indifference in his eyes was replaced by murderous intent.

However, Mu Xian closed his eyes as soon as the killing intent appeared.

At least it's confirmed that what the rich man said before was correct.

—One day, I'll kill this guy!

Just as Mu Xian was thinking about these things, the man lowered his clapping hands.

"Such a deep bond between siblings..."

"No one would have imagined that Lord Tianquan of Liyue would have such a past, right?"

The man's words also caused Ningguang's expression to turn cold, no longer showing the gentle demeanor she had when facing Mu Xian.

An aura of authority emanated from Ningguang, revealing a hint of hostility towards the man without any restraint.

The arrow pierced the air, shooting towards the man in front of it with a deep blue light that was completely different from the white specks of light around it.

However, the man simply turned his head slightly and dodged the arrow.

The arrow missed its mark, and the person who shot it emerged from the shadows.

"The rich..."

Ye Lan drew her bow and aimed it at the rich man, her eyes filled with wariness: "What are you doing here?"

"Recently, Lord Tianquan's pressure on the Northern Bank has been giving me quite a headache."

"So, to clear my head, I wandered around Liyue for a while..."

The rich man didn't answer. He squinted at Mu Xian, then turned his gaze to Ning Guang.

"I never expected to meet Lord Tianquan here."

As soon as he finished speaking, a surging suction force came from the earth's veins, pulling many white light spots back to the earth's veins.

The sudden change made Ningguang stop paying attention to the rich man in front of her and turn to look at Mu Xian on the other side.

As expected, this suction force also affected Mu Xian, pulling him back to the earth's veins.

A mysterious power surged in her hand, and Ningguang reached out to grab Mu Xian.

After all that effort, Ningguang's sole purpose was to bring back Mu Xian's soul.

She would never allow Mu Xian to return to the earth's veins!

Chapter 198 Tianquan's Reservation

Mu Xian could feel another suction force coming from it, and the slender arm that he couldn't reach before suddenly grabbed his right hand.

Mu Xian frowned. If that's the case, then why did he miss when he grabbed him earlier?

After all... she's not like those who lose their rationality.

However, Mu Xian didn't care, but instead thought of something else.

—She was able to catch herself, does that mean...?

Thinking this, Mu Xian placed his other hand on the hilt of Bu Yanshan's knife.

Although this hand is not my dominant hand, it doesn't matter.

Just as Mu Xian drew his sword from its sheath, a white shadow flashed before his eyes.

The white figure deflected Mu Xian's slashing blade, allowing it to pass through the body of the wealthy man blocking its path without any obstruction.

At least the rich man was not harmed at all after passing through.

The distinction between consciousness and the physical body still exists.

"Tsk..."

Mu Xian clicked his tongue impatiently, only to find that the arm that was grabbing him had disappeared.

Seeing this, they were about to return to the ley lines, but as they turned around, they encountered another person.

It is night orchid.

However, judging from her appearance, she looked like she hadn't tidied herself up for several days and appeared somewhat disheveled.

Mu Xian's gaze fell on her, and Ye Lan seemed to sense her presence as well.

He quietly smoothed his hair with his right hand, then slowly began to speak.

"You still remember me, right..."

"My name is Ye Lan, a special agent from the General Affairs Department..."

"I'm sorry about what happened before."

Mu Xian looked at Ye Lan with the same cold gaze as always.

Unlike Ningguang, he didn't have a deep entanglement with her.

I had only met her a few times.

Moreover... those few meetings weren't exactly pleasant.

Mu Xian's indifferent gaze made Ye Lan feel uneasy.

Aside from that day five years ago, this was only the second time he had stood in front of Mu Xian.

She looked at Mu Xian, anticipating his response.

But Mu Xian just silently looked at Ye Lan, and then walked step by step toward the entrance of the earth vein.

The consciousness, dressed in a long robe, passed through Yelan's body.

In that instant, Ye Lan seemed to feel a chill sweep over her entire body.

As the chill swept over her, Ye Lan stiffened; she had never expected Mu Xian to react this way.

There was no hatred for being shot by an arrow, no smile of self-forgiveness...

It's like looking at a complete stranger, so unfamiliar that you can never enter Mu Xian's own world.

Similarly, a stranger has no right to stop another stranger.

Ye Lan, who was in a daze, was not disappointed, but only showed a bitter smile.

She wondered why she had been standing in front of Mu Xian in the first place...

He and I are clearly from two different worlds.

—All I have to do is stand at a distance and quietly watch Mu Xian.

—Just watch quietly...

"Yelan!"

The cold voice carried a hint of reprimand, causing Ye Lan to look up at Ning Guang on the other side.

Ningguang and the rich man were facing off.

She glanced at Ye Lan through the wealthy man's eyes, giving her a meaningful look.

Finally, her gaze fell on the rich man again, her cold eyes revealing a highly threatening hostility.

Noticing the look in Ningguang's eyes, Yelan finally came to her senses. Years of working together made her realize what Ningguang wanted to do.

After a moment's hesitation, the Life-Binding Silk appeared in Ye Lan's hand.

At the same time, Ningguang's voice rang out.

"It seems I was too lenient with the Northern Bank."

This was said to the rich.

The rich man, upon hearing this, still squinted, but his smile widened.

Keep it?

The rich man found it somewhat ridiculous.

Ningguang showed no mercy to the Northern Bank.

The wealthy had planned to gradually gain control of Liyue's economy through the Northern Bank...

But Ningguang's attention to that little follower was beyond the rich man's expectations.

They even went so far as to sacrifice their own interests to suppress the Northern Bank in Liyue.

Not only did the Northern Bank in Liyue fail to develop, but it also led to wealthy people investing most of the resources of the Winter Kingdom into the Northern Bank in Liyue.

Even the trade routes they opened were frequently subject to inspections and interceptions by the General Affairs Department.

For example, the long-sleeved shawl behind Ye Lan was stolen after a hidden trade route set up by a wealthy person was infiltrated and intercepted.

The suppression by Tianquan made the rich realize that all of this needed to change.

After fighting for so long, the rich man was unlikely to back down to Tianquan.

Since that's the case, we naturally have to exploit her weaknesses.

For example... her former little follower.

Five years ago, when she went to Liyue, the Ice Queen mentioned that little follower to the rich man.

He said he had the potential to become the chief executor of the Fools, implying that he hoped the rich man would take him back to the Winter Kingdom.

The rich man had initially planned the same thing: to turn the two people who cherished each other into enemies, and finally order the fools to rescue the helpless little follower.

What the rich man didn't expect was that... he had gone a bit too far, causing that lackey to harbor such strong hostility towards him.

More importantly, the person who had been standing by and watching all along finally intervened and brought the little follower to Inazuma.
