Legend of the Dragon King: I am Genshin Impact

Chapter 35 Playing in the Mud

The middle-aged man frowned. "What? What happened? Why were you so impulsive? You've caused a huge disaster!"

Wu Changkong didn't say a word, he just stared coldly at Liu Dahai.

Liu Dahai, as the Tang Clan's deputy in Donghai City, was not only skilled but also impeccable in his conduct. He knew it couldn't be Wu Changkong's fault, but killing him outright would be troublesome. He needed to find a way to shift the blame!

Let's take a look at the photos first...

Liu Dahai glanced down at the photo, and a powerful aura suddenly erupted, even pushing Wu Changkong back several meters!

In the photo, Feng Zixi looks like she's barely alive. She looks like she's about to be cleaved in two!

"Damn it!!! Does the Sun and Moon Federation want to start a war right now?!" Liu Dahai's soul power surged as he suppressed his anger. "How's Xiao Xi doing now?"

"Don't worry, that kid is very good at hiding his true abilities," Wu Changkong said coldly. "I personally watched him recover almost completely in just three hours."

"That's good, that's good..." Liu Dahai breathed a sigh of relief.

Unlike Shrek Academy, the Tang Sect, having experienced a period of decline ten thousand years ago, has now gone underground. Although they also do things to uphold peace and justice, they have never proclaimed themselves as a righteous organization!

From the very beginning, during the time of Tang San, the founder of the Tang Sect, the essence of the organization had already been defined.

In short, although he is righteous, he sides with his own people instead of those who are right!

Regardless of the reason, Wu Changkong killed a federal official, and Liu Dahai never thought about how to punish Wu Changkong, but rather how to push the matter out of the public eye, which speaks volumes.

Liu Dahai took the photos into his office and said to Wu Changkong, "You wait here, I'll send the photos to the deputy sect leader. We have to take a big bite out of the Federation!"

……

In an elegant courtyard, a young man lay in the yard, rocking back and forth in a deck chair while enjoying the moonlight.

This short period of time was one of the very few times he, as the deputy sect leader of the Tang Clan, could rest.

Ding!

The communication device in my pocket beeped.

"Oh? Liu Dahai? Has Xiao Zixi's novel manuscript been sent over again?" The young man smiled.

This wasn't the first time. Because online updates couldn't be too fast, he often had to ask that kid for his saved drafts. The kid's writing was practically Zang Xin's only form of entertainment.

As for Feng Zixi, the sect leader, he had only met him twice. Although he had only met him twice, Zang Xin was the deputy sect leader of the Tang Sect, who was extremely busy. The fact that he could take the time to come to Donghai City to see this little guy twice in three years was enough to show how much he valued him.

Feng Zixi left a very deep impression on Zang Xin. It can be said that after meeting Feng Zixi, Zang Xin felt that Feng Zixi was just like the child he had always dreamed of.

She can be both affectionate and mischievous. Occasionally, she'll doodle and draw instead of focusing on her studies, and at night, she'll lie sprawled out on the bed and fall fast asleep because she's too lazy to cultivate! Most importantly, her temperament and talent are practically perfect! She's simply a treasure bestowed upon the Tang Sect by heaven.

Zang Xin smiled and opened the file Liu Dahai had sent him! The first thing he saw was a bloody, blurry picture.

boom!!!

Zang Xin stood up from the recliner, and his powerful soul force shattered the recliner behind him!

"Good job! You've got guts! You really have guts!"

……

Meanwhile, back in his dorm, Feng Zixi lay sprawled on the floor, completely unconcerned about his appearance. Although he'd almost fully recovered, he was still captivated by the powerful sensation emanating from the ground. The light, airy feeling was nice, but he needed to experience something different every now and then!

Feng Zixi sat up only after the feeling of weakness in her body had completely disappeared.

Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Feng Zixi mobilized the power of the martial spirit within his body.

The heavy rock element slowly transformed into the ethereal wind element. Feng Zixi's face scrunched up in dismay. "Ugh, this transformation is taking way too long..."

To exit the Geo Archon state and enter the God's Heart state, it takes at least a minute under calm conditions. In battle, it's not even certain whether elemental transformation is possible, and even if it is, it takes a very long time, making it unusable in actual combat!

That's outrageous, absolutely outrageous.

Feng Zixi scratched his head, switching his wind elemental power back to rock elemental power, which took a full minute this time. Was it like the Travelers of Teyvat, who had to pray at the Statue of the Seven to switch elements?

Although Feng Zixi could sense that the time it took to switch between elements could be shortened through training, there would still be a certain time interval no matter how much it was shortened. This seemed to be a rule, a limitation from Teyvat! Unless she gave up the Divine Heart Martial Soul, she could never master multiple elements simultaneously!

After thinking for a while, Feng Zixi decided to use the Geo elemental form normally and switch to it only in special circumstances. After all, even if she couldn't use the Anemo element, she had Wendy, the little spirit, to help her. Another reason was... her control over the Geo element was too low.

With the wind element, Feng Zixi, whose true form is a wind spirit, can completely control it without distinction. However, with the rock element, there's always a sense of stagnation, as if the power of the Geo Archon is being forcibly used to control it. The wind will actively protect itself, but the rock is being forcibly conscripted…

Feng Zixi simply sat on the ground and started playing with the mud...

In short, it involves extracting the geo element from the ground and shaping it into figurines like clay. Although it looks like playing with mud, this actually increases your affinity with the geo element.

As for what I sculpted, it's my childhood sweetheart, Xiao Na'er, and that free little silver dragon, Gu Yue. Finally, I'll reluctantly add a stoic, expressionless Wu Changkong.

Seeing Wu Changkong's heroic spirit in avenging himself, Feng Zixi felt warm inside, even though he didn't say it on the surface. "I'll reluctantly accept you as my retainer" (smug face)!

……

The next day, Wu Changkong rushed back from Tang Sect to teach the little rascals of Class Five. Although Wu Changkong was expressionless, it must be said that he was a responsible one. He knew that apart from Gu Yue and a few others, everyone else in Class Five was a good-for-nothing, but he didn't give up on them.

Gu Yue barely listened to a word of the day's lessons, staring blankly at the empty seat next to her.

In the after-school match against Class 2 of Grade 1, Tang Wulin, Gu Yue, and Xie Xie didn't exert much effort, as their opponents only had one Soul Master with a yellow hundred-year Soul Ring. Facing the coordinated attack of Tang Wulin and his two companions, the trio had no chance. With Gu Yue's firepower support, Xie Xie easily defeated his opponents.

Although Gu Yue made some minor mistakes along the way, it was still a crushing victory!

Tomorrow is a rest day. After the rest day, they will face the challenge against Class 1 of Grade 1. Class 1 of each grade is completely different from the other classes because it is filled with the most outstanding geniuses of the year. Tang Wulin and his team are not worried at all. Although the opponent is strong, they still have Zixi as a substitute!

Tang Wulin and Xie Xie cultivated all night and had no idea what had happened the previous night. Although they saw the golden light flashing and heard the booming explosions, they had no interest in watching the spectacle.

Xie Xie went to see what was going on, but when he arrived, he only saw the ice wall and had no idea what had happened.
