Wu Qiu finally heard the whole story. It turned out that two hundred years ago, the Hurricane Demon King released his first clone, which was when Princess Erica had just become the Queen of the Hidden Stone Kingdom.

Originally, she wanted to investigate the situation outside, but she was inspired by Erica's spirit. So, she used that clone to live as an ordinary person in Hidden Stone City.

At that time, she was a bard. It was during that time that she herself told the story of the Hurricane Demon King.

Later, she changed identities four times in Hidden Stone City. Whenever one of her clones died as she aged, she would release a new clone.

Until this time, the clone she used was her original form, that is, the form of the Hurricane Demon God after he transformed into human form.

Her name, Cang Yu, is actually just her real name with one character added. Yes, the Hurricane Demon King's original name was Cang.

Using this clone, she continued to live in Hidden Stone City as a street performer. At first, everything went smoothly, and there were no problems.

Five years ago, however, her Hurricane Spirit Eyes had accumulated too much power and had to release some of it. If that power were unleashed in full force, it could have destroyed the entire Hidden Stone City and a large area around it.

Therefore, she could only gather these powers and create a pirated Hurricane Spirit Eye, which was the bead that Wu Qiu and his group stole.

Yes, it's not the Hurricane Spirit Eye, but you can't say it's completely different; it's more like a knock-off of the Hurricane Spirit Eye.

However, keeping this thing on your person might cause it to continue absorbing your power, so Cang Yu plans to release the original power inside.

Of course, it cannot be released directly, as that would be too powerful. Therefore, it can only be allowed little by little, so that these forces can be integrated into the natural wind.

Cang Yu thought this, but she had only just taken out this low-end version of the Hurricane Spirit Eye. This thing was like a husky that had broken free of its reins; it was truly uncontrollable.

Because it was a clone, she could only sense the general direction of the Hurricane Spirit Eye, so it took her half a year to steal it from the Knights. As a result, Hidden Stone City experienced no wind for six months.

Five years later, the power of this low-end version of the Hurricane Spirit Eye had been almost completely depleted. They thought everything was fine, but then, without warning, it escaped again.

The giant white bird that appeared in Hidden Stone City was actually Cang Yu's power that he accidentally revealed when he was trying to stop the Hurricane Spirit Eye in his haste.

Unfortunately, they couldn't stop it. Later, Hurricane Eye somehow ended up inside Fox's mansion.

Cang Yu tried to use the fact that Fox liked him to go in and find him. But as soon as she got inside, she thought of that lecherous Fox again. If he kept touching her inappropriately, she wouldn't have a chance.

So, she temporarily changed her appearance, knocked out a servant, and pretended to be her, intending to secretly search for someone. However, she hadn't gone far when she ran into two acquaintances, leaving her no choice but to follow them.

Then, I ran into that bastard Wu Qiu. I didn't really take Wu Qiu seriously to begin with, but who would have thought that Wu Qiu would knock me out with a single fart?

After Cang Yu finished speaking, he glared at Wu Qiu with a fierce look. Wu Qiu shuddered, but still said, "You spoke very well, but I don't believe you."

Cang Yu glared at him and said, "You!"

"Hey, hey, don't be angry yet. Your story is so unbelievable. If I believed it, the readers would curse me to death."

"Putting everything else aside, I just want to ask you a few questions. First, even though it's an avatar, it's still an avatar of your demon god. Is it really that hard to steal something in Fox? Why would you steal it?"

"Secondly, your clone can go out and let us out at any time, so don't tell me you can't get out? I simply can't believe that."

Wu Qiu's question is quite normal. After all, you are a demon god. Even if you have a clone, would you be afraid of Fox? Besides, you can send your clones out and send others out, but you can't get out yourself?

Cang Yu was clearly taken aback when she heard these two questions, and then the light in her eyes dimmed, and she became dejected.

“Indeed, if my clone wanted to steal something, no one in the Hidden Stone Kingdom could stop him.”

"Moreover, I can indeed go out. Morax did not specifically seal me; the seal on the rock spear was formed naturally by his power and could not suppress me at all."

"Once my injuries have fully healed, I will be able to easily break free from the seal. But..."

As she spoke, she slowly stretched out her arms and hugged herself, her wings on her back contracting, and her body trembling. Wu Qiu could clearly see that her pupils were trembling slightly with fear.

“I don’t dare, I don’t dare go out. I’m scared, afraid of attracting his attention. Morax is a monster.”

As she spoke, she looked up at Wu Qiu and said, "You must all think I'm funny, right? Yes, I'm a coward and I'm afraid of dying."

"More than that, when I saw Morax's immense power, I didn't even have the courage to unleash the Hurricane Spirit Eye. Even though using the Hurricane Spirit Eye could give me a fighting chance, I still didn't dare."

"Actually, I know myself that I am not worthy of being called the Wind God or the Sky Overlord. I was so scared by him that I hid here for a thousand years, but I don't feel ashamed at all."

After Cang Yu finished speaking, Wu Qiu was stunned and subconsciously replied, "Why?"

"Because in my time, other demons may not have been as cowardly as I was, but all of them, no matter who they were, once they had fought Morax, would never want to be his enemy again. Do you know why? Because that guy is not someone that one or two demons can defeat; he is a monster."

Wu Qiu finally realized what was happening; he understood what the hurricane demon in front of him was like. First, she was very timid; just recalling it now almost made her cry from Morax's fright.

Secondly, she could leave this seal at any time, but she didn't, because she was afraid of encountering Morax again.

It's fair to say that Hurricane Demon was truly terrified of Morax. He was the kind of guy who would cower like a grandson at the mere mention of Morax's name, too scared to move.

Wu Qiu thought to himself, "Holy crap, is Zhongli really that awesome?"

In the Genshin Impact story, it seems there are only two characters who might be stronger than Zhongli: one is Tianli, and the other is the Dragon King Ruoduo.

Of course, I'm not talking about the hunchbacked guy you see in the dungeon; they're practically two different creatures.

In the backstory, the Dragon King Ruoduo was carved by Zhongli from a naturally formed divine stone, and he came to life after being given eyes.

He was sealed away by Zhongli because he still harbored a sliver of goodwill; it could be said that he willingly allowed himself to be sealed. Zhongli himself stated that even at his peak, he might not be able to single-handedly contend with the Dragon King Ruotu.

Apart from Tianli and Ruotu Dragon King, it seems that no demon god or one of the seven gods has revealed any information that could deal with Zhongli alone.

The hurricane demon was so frightened; it's true that demons are looked down upon. But thinking about it carefully, she wasn't entirely wrong.

She couldn't win, so she just didn't want to die. Fear, anxiety, and the desire to escape are normal emotions; you can't deny them just because she's a demon.

Wu Qiu could understand her feelings perfectly. After all, she herself did this every day, hiding behind Ying whenever there was any danger.

Chapter 53: Should I say you're persistent or foolish?

Hey girl, don't be afraid, Zhongli, no! Morax isn't that scary now. As long as you don't cause trouble when you go out, you'll be fine.

Wu Qiu tried to comfort Cang Yu, but Cang Yu immediately replied firmly, "I don't believe it! Morax is a cold-blooded and ruthless bastard! I heard that Gui Zhong died and still didn't get an answer from him."

................................................

"Who is Gui Zhong?!" Wu Qiu was dumbfounded. How did another Gui Zhong appear out of nowhere? This Gui Zhong... why does that name sound so familiar?

“I was sealed away, but I’m not completely ignorant of what’s happening outside. At least I know about the fate of the Dust King Demon God who appeared later.”

"Although she is not very strong, she is very intelligent, and I heard that she is a very gentle demon god."

"The Demon King of Dust?" Wu Qiu felt the name was even more familiar. After thinking for a while, Wu Qiu suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "That's right! I remember now!"

As he spoke, Wu Qiu turned to Cang Yu and said, "That Gui Zhong, does he like Morax? And he even gave him a really powerful thing called the Lock of the Mortal World."

"You know?" Cang Yu asked, somewhat surprised. Wu Qiu scratched his head. "I know a little, but not much. I wonder if the Demon God could elaborate?"

Cang Yu shook his head. "I don't know much either. I only know that she was a pitiful girl."

"Shortly after I was sealed away, Morax solidified his position as one of the Seven Gods and became one of the original Seven Rulers of the Earth."

"Later, the Dust Queen appeared. She gave Morax something, which should be the World Lock you mentioned."

"She says it's a token of some kind of alliance, but in reality, no alliance ever existed. It's just a girl's wishful thinking about the person she admires, and she's willing to follow him."

Wu Qiu listened thoughtfully. Paimon, standing beside him, also spoke up, "Well, she's a very nice girl."

"What's so good about it!" Cang Yu suddenly glared at Wu Qiu and Paimeng, which startled the two of them. They didn't know what crazy thing this woman had done this time.

He sighed. "Indeed, she was a good girl, but later the Demon God wanted to usurp the throne, and Liyue was thrown into chaos. Even if Morax was strong, he couldn't quell the chaos instantly."

"And in that war, Gui died protecting her people. And until her death, she never received a single reply from that Morax guy."

After saying this, Cang Yu sighed repeatedly. Paimon also looked dejected and said, "Ah~ how pitiful."

Wu Qiu felt something was off and looked at Cang Yu curiously, saying, "Although you're sighing, why do I feel like you're gloating a bit? And there seems to be a hint of sourness in your words."

"What...what do you mean?" Cang Yu was taken aback. Wu Qiu squinted. "You wouldn't...like Morax too, would you?"

"You, you, you, you, what are you saying!" Cang Yu's face turned red instantly, practically steaming.

Wu Qiu was just saying it casually; he really didn't expect it to come true. Besides, given your current state, what are you still objecting to? Your external description is too obvious.

"I like him, so what!"

So Cang Yu stopped trying to hide it, blushing and gritting her teeth as she spoke. Wu Qiu was speechless. "Hey, you actually like him and you still went and hit him? Why is that?"

Wu Qiu asked a good question, and Cang Yu's face immediately darkened. His aura surged wildly, clearly indicating that he was suppressing his anger.

"That bastard Morax! I've been pursuing him for ages, confessing my love to him, and he just won't give me a second glance. It's outrageous!"

"Uh……"

Wu Qiu felt like she had stirred up a hornet's nest. But her curiosity had already been piqued, so Wu Qiu asked, "So, you should turn love into hate, thinking that if you can't have it, you should destroy it?"

"How could that be!" Cang Yu glared at Wu Qiu, then said, "That day, I went to Liyue to find him, intending to make my 18,425th confession."

"But who knew that as soon as I arrived, I would see several demons looking for trouble with Morax. They were nervous when they saw me, and I was dumbfounded when I saw them, and then..."

"Then that bastard Morax showed up (*), he falsely accused me of coming to attack Liyue with him, and without giving me a chance to explain, he started beating me up."

"He's so strong (╥_╥) and I can't beat him, so I got scared and ran away. But who knew he wouldn't give up and even stabbed me with a rock gun ·()·"

................................................

Holy crap, is this plot really that melodramatic? Dude, you really are... 18,000 times! Didn't Zhongli get annoyed to death by you?

Honestly, Wu Qiu now believes that Zhong Li knew back then that this girl wasn't with those demon gods. The reason he framed her was simply to find a reason to beat her up.

In the end, that story became a tragic love story. Should I call yours stubbornness or foolishness?

Cang Yu was crying there, just like a wronged child, not at all like a demon god.

Wu Qiu and Pai Meng exchanged a glance but neither spoke. After Cang Yu finished crying, he sat there looking as if he were filled with inferiority.

Wu Qiu cautiously stepped forward. "Um, big sister, what are you going to do now? You can't stay here forever, can you?"

Cang Yu raised his head. "If I don't go out, Morax is still angry with me. If I go out, he'll definitely kill me."

"Damn it!" Wu Qiu took a deep breath and said solemnly, "No, to put it bluntly, Morax might not even remember you now."

"Moreover, as long as you don't threaten Liyue, you won't be in danger even if he remembers you."

As he spoke, Wu Qiu thought of a good example: "By the way, the current Wind God Barbatos, that guy impersonated Morax and created a lot of fake contracts, which is why the Rock God wants to beat him up whenever he sees him now."

"The contract, Morax values ​​the contract highly, you should know that. Barbatos did such a suicidal thing, but he's still alive and well. Morax didn't say he'd chase after Mondstadt to kill him."

"Really?" Cang Yu's face showed surprise, but even more so, doubt in his eyes. Wu Qiu nodded, "I swear to the lamp, if I'm lying, you can come and kill me."

"Never mind, I'll think about it some more." Cang Yu lowered his head, not immediately letting go of his fear because of Wu Qiu's words.

Wu Qiu felt he had done everything he could. So he said directly, "Then, could you send us out first? We've wasted enough time here; it's probably already dawn outside."

After being reminded by Wu Qiu, Cang Yu realized what was happening and hurriedly stood up. "Yes, yes, it's been so long since I've talked about my past with anyone like this. I've lost track of time."

As she spoke, she raised one hand, and a vortex appeared in front of Wu Qiu. Not only that, but there were also images inside it.

"It's Sister Ying!"
