Genshin Impact: The Vision of Gods Shines Again

It's called participation, but there's not much of a sense of participation.

Yan Fei left Kuai Dao Chen's shop and soon returned with a large stack of photos.

Surprisingly, after looking at the last photo, Mu Xian did not find the person he was looking for in the pile of photos.

The clues seemed to have gone cold again, but Mu Xian pondered again and picked out a few photos from the pile.

Mu Xian still remembered that in the Abyss of Layered Rocks, there was not only the Thousand Rock Army from before, but also several companions standing around that Thousand Rock Army.

Since they were comrades, they obviously knew where the Thousand Rock Army had gone.

Chapter 32 This thing is a bit cold

Yanfei left again, and when she reappeared, she brought with her a reserved Qianyan Army.

When Mu Xian left the Layered Rock Abyss, he met this Thousand Rock Army.

"You mean Aja?"

Qianyan Jun glanced at Hu Tao with a strange expression, then quickly looked away as if he were afraid of something.

“When we left the Abyss of Layered Rocks, he voluntarily chose to leave the Thousand Rock Army.”

"I remember he didn't live in Liyue Harbor, but it's not far from Liyue Harbor."

"I have some things to do, so I'll just tell you the location. There's only one house there; you should be able to find it."

...

Hu Tao clearly noticed the strange gaze from Qian Yanjun.

Just as she was wondering, what Hu Tao said next made her forget about her puzzlement.

We've got a lead!

Realizing they were close to finding the person spreading the rumors, both Hu Tao and Yan Fei perked up.

Before the sun set, the two girls went to find the guy named Aja, following the location given by Qianyan Army.

Of course, Mu Xian, who was standing nearby, was also included.

The Thousand Rock Army mentioned that Aja's residence was not far from Liyue Harbor, but did not say that his residence was actually in a remote location.

After leaving Liyue Harbor, the three of them spent most of their time traveling along mountain paths.

The mountain road undoubtedly slowed things down considerably, but the surrounding scenery was unlike anything Mu Xian had ever seen in Liyue Harbor.

Mu Xian walked behind Hu Tao and Yan Fei, deliberately keeping a distance between them.

Perhaps because he disliked her, Mu Xian subconsciously didn't want her to look at him.

More importantly, Mu Xian wanted to find that sense of tranquility he had felt before.

Many people don't want to walk mountain paths unless absolutely necessary.

One reason is that the roads are difficult to travel, but another reason is that remote mountain roads can present unexpected dangers.

Two people walked in front and one person behind, and the three of them maintained this posture for a long time.

It wasn't until Mu Xian crushed the dry wood branches under his feet that he snapped out of his reverie.

Looking up, I was still on a mountain, but the surroundings were empty.

If you simply cast your gaze slightly into the distance, the bustling Liyue Harbor and the Cloud Sea will come into view.

The scenery is beautiful, but there are hardly any trees around, so even woodcutters wouldn't come here to collect firewood.

The wooden branch that fell into the middle of the road out of nowhere seemed ordinary, but it was more like a kind of marker.

Mu Xian, who was still in Guhua when he went down the mountain to eliminate evil, often saw this kind of trick.

Thinking of this, Mu Xian stopped in his tracks.

Just as he was about to remind Hu Tao, a sound like something being smashed came from the air, and the surrounding temperature dropped significantly in the next second.

The drop in temperature made Hu Tao and Yan Fei realize that something was wrong. They stopped in their tracks as a group of figures surrounded them from nowhere.

Some of these people were carrying crossbows, some were carrying shovels, and some were carrying an unknown liquid...

They held strangely shaped objects in their hands as weapons. The first word that popped into Mu Xian's mind when he saw them was...

mob!

Or rather, a motley crew scattered throughout the entire continent of Teyvat.

Treasure-stealing gang.

These treasure-hunting groups often profit by digging up treasures and antiques from ruins.

However, when they were struggling to make ends meet, some members of the treasure-hunting gang would secretly commit robberies.

Mu Xian and his two companions were unlucky; they encountered a treasure-hunting gang that was struggling to make ends meet.

However, these treasure-hunting groups were also unlucky, encountering a certain leader who specialized in disposing of corpses and a certain well-known lawyer from Liyue.

There was another sound of a container shattering, and the surrounding temperature dropped even further.

The guy who was suspected to be the leader of the treasure-hunting group came out.

"Be honest!"

The leader feigned fierceness, yet also seemed somewhat timid: "Hand over the money now."

"Eh?"

The sudden situation puzzled Hu Tao. After glancing at Mu Xian, who was relatively safe behind her, she turned her attention to the leader of the treasure-stealing group.

"robbery?"

Hu Tao's eyes lit up, and an amused expression appeared on her face: "I never thought that I, the master of this hall, would encounter such a situation one day."

"How about we make a deal? I see you're barely scraping by, and you might die any day now."

"I'm giving you a super super super discount card from the Rebirth Hall. Buy two get one free, plus an additional 20% off."

"How about I give it to Mora as a gift?"

The arrow pierced through Walnut's cheek and landed on the ground not far away. One of the members of the treasure-hunting group, with an angry expression, reloaded the crossbow.

"You'd better hand over Mora quickly!"

The member of the treasure-hunting gang threatened, "Otherwise, my aim won't be so good next time."

"We were just discussing business with you, how did you start fighting?"

Hu Tao muttered, then said, "How about this, I don't have any Mora on me, so just put it on the account of the Rebirth Hall."

"Ah, found it!"

Yan Fei, who had been silent all along, said excitedly, and then closed the thick book in her hand again.

"Article 243 of the Liyue Code states that the act of forcibly seizing the property of the owner through violence, coercion, or other means shall be punished with imprisonment ranging from one month to three years, depending on the amount of property involved."

As she spoke, Yan Fei looked at the leader of the treasure-hunting group: "No matter what, you all have to be locked up for at least a month."

Clearly, these words completely ignited Hu Tao's already simmering anger.

The members of the treasure-stealing gang, relying on their numerical advantage, tried to forcefully teach the two a lesson, but instead, Yanfei and Hutao quickly dealt with many of them.

The leader of the treasure-hunting group sat down on the spot and immediately realized that he had met a tough opponent.

Seeing his companions being knocked to the ground one by one, the leader's pupils shifted, and he suddenly noticed Mu Xian standing not far away, ignored by everyone.

The leader had a sudden inspiration and quietly approached Mu Xian without anyone noticing.

Of course, the idea that "no one noticed" is only the leader's personal opinion.

Mu Xian spotted the guy with the lewd look in his eyes, who was trying to get close to him.

However, he only glanced at it before looking away.

Mu Xian had promised Hu Tao that he wouldn't risk his life until he cured Hu Tao, but he was too lazy to move an inch because of this guy.

In any case, this treasure-hunting group posed no threat to Mu Xian.

Soon, Hu Tao and Yan Fei had dealt with all the members of the treasure-hunting gang who were surrounding them.

Originally, Hu Tao was kicking a member of the treasure-hunting team who had fainted out of boredom, while Yan was planning to find something to tie them up.

Just then, as expected, Mu Xian was "kidnapped" by the leader.

"Don't move!"

The only one who slipped through the net pulled out a dagger from somewhere and pointed it at Mu Xian's neck: "Otherwise, I don't know what I might do."

The sound attracted the attention of the two people in the distance. Both Hu Tao and Yan Fei's faces showed panic for a moment.

The leader naturally noticed the expressions on the two men's faces. Just as he was feeling smug about his cleverness, a calm voice came from below him.

"This thing is a bit cold."

As if he didn't care, Mu Xian reached out and pushed the dagger at his neck a little further away: "Don't get too close."

Chapter 33 The Hut in the Bamboo Grove

Mu Xian's words startled the leader. The anger caused by being looked down upon made him want to teach the child in front of him a lesson.

The hand that was controlling Mu Xian was about to grab Mu Xian's throat, but the temperature coming from his lower abdomen caught the leader's attention.

Looking down, I noticed that Mu Xian was holding a ball of fire in his hand.

His pupils contracted, and before the man could make any move, the fireball in Mu Xian's hand suddenly exploded.

The explosion was so sudden that the leader instinctively released Mu Xian.

The moment the leader released the wooden frame, he realized something was wrong, and then felt a sharp pain in his abdomen, as if he had been swept by something.

An unstoppable force emanated from his abdomen, smashing the leader's body into a crater in the ground not far away.

The light from the Evil Eye in Mu Xian's hand gradually dimmed, and the flames from the explosion also disappeared.

Suddenly, a slender figure appeared in front of him, her back to Mu Xian, protecting him.

Mu Xian looked up and saw that Hu Tao was holding the dark red staff, her whole body supported on the staff of homa.
