Just then, a guard team came running from the front.
He looked hurried.
"Have you found the Grass God?"
"could not find it."
"It's not in the Palace of Wisdom, it's not in the Palace of Purity, where did it go? Lord Elhesen is extremely worried."
"Good heavens, the Grass God is not here, and neither is the Great Sage Hein. Who will preside over the Day of Knowledge of the Hidden Treasures next?"
"Keep searching! It will begin in half an hour!"
The guards dispersed, their faces filled with anxiety.
Asmodeus looked suspicious. The Grass God had disappeared? And he wanted his people to go find him... Wasn't this just like a certain law?
Just then, she raised her head and looked at the horizon outside Sumeru City.
His eyes narrowed slightly.
The next second, a storm stirred up by elemental power blew in from the horizon, crushing large swathes of trees along its path. Then, the space rumbled and exploded as an invisible behemoth surged forward like a tidal wave.
"Grass God, don't push your luck!! If you don't stop, I'll tear down your Sumeru City!!"
The sound was like a booming bell, causing everyone in Sumeru City to freeze in place and look up.
"what is that?!"
"A...dragon?"
"My God! He's coming this way!"
"Guards! Guards!"
"Stop shouting! The guards have already run away!"
The behemoth charged forward. Where had any mortal ever seen such a sight? ...Oh, I have. When Hazard rebelled, his dilapidated machine was destroyed by a giant desert reaper with a single blow.
But the behemoth before us is stirring up towering yellow sand, as if it will engulf the entire world. Most people would be so frightened by it that their legs would go weak and they would be unable to move.
"Grass Dragon King?"
Asmodeus raised an eyebrow slightly.
She was very familiar with the Grass Dragon King Apep. He had fought alongside Fanes against the dragons, and while all the other dragon kings had died, the Grass Dragon had escaped and disappeared, its whereabouts unknown.
"It's here."
Asmodeus's power surged subtly.
The Dragon King is an ancient remnant and a mortal enemy of Heaven's justice. Although she has resigned from her job, she still cannot let him go when she encounters him.
"Ok?"
In the far distance, Apep, who was fleeing, sensed a strong sense of danger approaching. He looked closely and, upon seeing Asmodeus in the city of Sumeru, was so terrified that his hair almost stood on end. He immediately looked up and cried out—
"Stop! Stop! Grass God! Don't hit me, a monster has come to your house!!"
Behind him, Nasita, who was being chased by sand soldiers, stopped and looked at Asmodeus with her small head and big eyes.
Danger.
Extremely dangerous.
The wisdom of the god of wisdom told her that this aunt was dangerous!
Once the fight starts, the result will inevitably be that the other person kneels in front of her and begs her not to die!
"Grass Dragon Apep".
An indifferent voice sounded.
At that moment, Asmodeus transformed into the Sustainer, his figure instantly appearing high in the sky, his golden eyes devoid of any emotion.
"Let us understand today the battle that has continued from ancient times to the present."
A dark red cube appeared on Asmodeus's body, releasing a powerful force belonging to the power of the void.
Sensing this power, Apep immediately shouted, "Grass God! Didn't you want me to be your mount? As long as you can protect me, I'll agree!!"
Naxi Da's eyes lit up.
She chased after Apep for three days and three nights in search of a cool mount, but the latter was stubborn and insisted that the ancient dragon king would shed blood but not tears, and vowed never to submit.
Now it's all right, I've given in.
But who is this woman?
This power seems to belong to a higher level... space?
Forget it.
Nasita flew to Apep, raised her golden scepter, stood tall and proud, her small body exuding great majesty, and said: "Unfamiliar deity, whoever you are, please leave this place."
Asmodeus said calmly, "God of Wisdom, step aside. This is a feud between the sky and the dragons. If you interfere, don't blame me for being impolite."
Nasita declared defiantly, "My father is Azir!"
Asmodeus: "???"
...

An impending, earth-shattering battle ended when Nasita uttered, 'My father is Azir.'
As it turns out, there is always room for reconciliation in any deep-seated hatred, and even ancient racial wars have temporarily come to a halt at this moment.
If Nasita's statement is true, then Asmodeus can conclude that Apep's existence was tacitly approved by Fanes.
After all, Azir is Phanes. What could possibly be hidden from him on this land of Sumeru?
but.
It's utterly absurd that he would allow his daughter to come into contact with the ancient Dragon King. Doesn't he worry at all? The other party is the Dragon King; if he were to unleash his power, killing a little girl should be a piece of cake.
Although Nasita had been chasing Apep all along, Asmodeus thought it was because of Fanes. The Grass Dragon King was clearly the type to bully the weak and fear the strong, and he was the fastest to run away back then.
Wait, that's not the point, is it? The point is... Lord Fanes not only returned a long time ago, but he also has a daughter?
Asmodeus stared at Nasita, scrutinizing her.
Only then did they discover that this grass god contained two kinds of power.
One is the power of the grass god, and the other is a power distinct from other forces in the world of Teyvat.
"Asmodeus, the Sustainer, I never expected you to come down from Sky Island. But no matter what, dragons will never submit to the sky, not even if you kill me!"
On a grassy area east of Sumeru City.
Apep buried half his head in the ground, speaking while preparing to flee at the slightest sign of trouble.
Asmodeus glanced at him and said indifferently, "The glory of the dragon race is long gone. Even if you don't admit it, it's the same. Your resistance is meaningless."
"Hmph! How laughable! My dragon race just recently gave birth to a dragon king. On the other hand, your natural order is weakened, and you've been forced to sweat profusely by the abyss, haven't you?" Apep said, rubbing his back and wiping away the sweat.
"So what? If I want to kill you, He can't stop me."
The unfamiliar dragon king once appeared in Mondstadt, but then disappeared without a trace.
She didn't leave Sky Island rashly because she wanted to maintain the order of nature. After all, even if the other party's strength didn't reach the level of Nibelungen, it was still much stronger than an ordinary complete dragon. If they fought to the death, it would only benefit the Abyss in the end.
But things are different now. Lord Fanes has returned, so what does the mere leader of the Seven Dragons matter?
"Hey! Grass God! You promised!" Sensing the killing intent in Asmodeus's tone, Apep immediately shouted.
"Okay, okay, it's so noisy."
Nasida turned around and kicked him.
Apep dared not speak.
Although He was unwilling to submit to the tyranny of this little one, He still chose to stand on the same side as the strong when faced with the upholder of justice.
Anyway, Azir is also an enemy of the Heavenly Principle. If He just yields a little and uses Azir's power to fight against Sky Island, then no matter which side wins or both sides are severely injured, it will be a good thing for Him.
Haha~ Go ahead and hit me, hit me as hard as you want, I'll just watch!
"You just said your father is Azir?" Asmodeus stared calmly at Nasita.
“Yes.” The little guy put his hands on his hips, not knowing what an opponent was. “My father said that Apep is a Sumeru, and that I will tame it and use it as a mount. This is also a test for me. I am now fulfilling my father’s mission.”
Appepp: "..."
Asmodeus paused for a moment, then asked, "Where is your father?"
"I don't know, but my father is all-powerful and omnipresent. He will appear immediately whenever I am in danger."
The implication was clear: if you dare touch me, my father will be here immediately.
Apep said, "Supporter, the father of the Grass God is Azir. You failed to kill him in your battle back then, and now he is even stronger. I advise you to leave quickly, or you won't be able to leave."
A clever tactic of reverse psychology.
Appepp gave himself a thumbs up for his cleverness.
To everyone's surprise, Asmodeus nodded and turned away.
“Grass God, if you insist on taking Him as your mount, I advise you to be careful. This guy is always good at being hypocritical. My grudge with your father can be discussed later.”
After saying that, he was leaving.
Appepp was a little confused. Wait, they're leaving already? Shouldn't you have had a fight?
“Wait a minute,” Nasita called out to Asmodeus.
"What's up?" The latter turned around.
The little girl blinked, then suddenly seemed to understand something. She asked, "Are you very close to my father?"
She had no idea what happened five hundred years ago, nor had she witnessed the battle between Azir and the Sustainer. But her experiences five hundred years later told her that if a woman with a special identity appeared in Sumeru, she was either there to seek revenge or to seek love.
Asmodeus paused in his steps.
"Why do you ask?"
