Loneliness is the cruelest punishment; no one can endure being alone. When everything you do is questioned and labeled, the abyss of loneliness can truly crush many people.

Compared to this, Yura truly earned Wu Qiu's admiration. Of course, this was also related to those who genuinely understood and appreciated her.

At least, Yura was lucky; in Mondstadt, which wasn't really home, there were people who truly understood her. (Don't ask me how Wu Qiu knows this; she just read the script.)

The Debt Settlers of the Fools' Fire are formidable enemies. Though they may look strange, their strength speaks for itself.

I have to say, it doesn't feel like much in the game, but this invisibility ability is really annoying. Phantoms appeared all around, creating hundreds of shadows even though there were only a few dozen people.

"Be careful."

Yura reminded Wu Qiu. No sooner had she spoken than a blur flew over. It was so fast that Wu Qiu could only see a shadow.

Bang! With a crisp sound, Yura blocked a short sword. Yura's strength was clearly much greater than her opponent's. The instant she blocked the sword, Yura used her strength to send her opponent flying, and then gripped her sword with both hands, ready to step forward.

But at that moment, two more afterimages flashed by, swiftly attacking Yura. Helpless, Yura had no choice but to abandon her attack and switch to defense.

"Although you are not as strong individually, can you withstand so many attacks?"

The female assassin, known as the "Red Diamond Assassin," let out a seductive laugh. Then, the surrounding space flickered, and figures appeared out of thin air, surrounding them.

"Hmph! Try it?"

"Let's give it a try!"

The first sentence was spoken by Yura, but the second sentence was not spoken by the woman. This is because after Yura's voice fell, those figures multiplied into even more phantoms, flashing and attacking simultaneously – truly an enhanced version of the Instant Shadow Killing Array.

Therefore, it was Wu Qiu who shouted this. At the same time, Wu Qiu's right arm flashed with light. Streams of tangible Korean energy surged around Yura.

"Condensed Flower Shield!!"

A flash of blue light appeared, and a giant ice flower rose from the ground. The petals rapidly closed and finally joined together, protecting the two people inside.

Boom! Boom! The sounds were deafening. The Condensed Flower Shield was hit by dozens of attacks in that instant, but it only shattered, not broke through.

"Oh!"

The Red Diamond Assassin exclaimed in surprise, "Not bad. His strength is weak, but he has such willpower? He's a terrifying person. If he continues to grow, he might eventually completely suppress my abilities."

"However, if that's the case, then it's even less likely that I'll let you live."

On the other side, the ice flower finally shattered under the relentless attacks. With a loud bang, it exploded into countless ice shards.

However, at the instant the ice flowers exploded, Yura's figure flew out from within them.

His greatsword was covered in a layer of solid ice, and he leaped into the air, unleashing a single, powerful strike. The sky seemed to transform into a white galaxy, with icy currents swirling through the air, forming a tangible blade.

This sword strike was incredibly powerful; all the enemies in front of it were sent flying by the powerful icy current. However, in mid-air, an ice wall rose from the ground, blocking everyone's retreat.

Then, the icy currents of the void surged wildly once more, this time Wu Qiu had concentrated his power to its limit. In the void, ice locks appeared one after another, trapping all the enemies in mid-air.

"Hmph! I haven't been slacking off all this time."

After speaking, Wu Qiu clenched his fists, tightening the ice lock. Then, he spread his other hand, and a condensed flower shield appeared horizontally at Youra's feet.

As Yura leaped forward, she raised her greatsword high, her figure flashing like a blue streak across everyone. At the same time, three white sword lights rapidly descended from the sky, exploding amidst the crowd.

When this round of attacks was over, Wu Qiu saw that all the debt collectors of the Fools' Fire were lying on the ground, dead beyond any doubt.

"Whoo~"

Wu Qiu breathed a deep sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his forehead. "Finally, I've completed 99% of it."

Why 99%? Well, that's because...

She raised her hand and swung it to the left. The condensed flower shield flew past Yura at high speed, finally knocking away the last Fool who was trying to sneak attack Yura.

"I'm not the same useless person I used to be anymore."

Smugly scratching his head, Wu Qiu looked at the Red Diamond Assassin and asked, "So? Is this all the trump card you have?"

The red diamond assassin looked at Wu Qiu with a look that suggested he was an idiot.

"What kind of look is that?!"

Wu Qiu was about to step forward when Yura stopped him. "Wait, we haven't dealt with that big guy who's generating electricity yet."

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

"Oh! Oh, oh, oh! So there's also the Lightning of No Form. Then what was I doing just now... I was wondering why that woman was looking at me like that. This is so embarrassing."

"Hmph hmph hmph..."

Suddenly, the woman in front of her laughed, a laugh that was utterly eerie. Looking at Yura, her eyes were filled with admiration.

"Not bad, not bad, I didn't expect to have such a harvest today. You have satisfied me."

Wu Qiu looked at her and said, "Are you talking nonsense to me?"

He grabbed Yura and pulled her forward, saying, "Hey! Let me tell you! Don't overthink it, you pervert. Yura's sexual orientation is perfectly normal, you shameless old man."

The woman ignored Wu Qiu and looked at Yura. "We don't need to be enemies, do we? I can see a lot in your eyes. I see Mond's hatred for you, I can see your inner desires, and I can see your inner vulnerability."

"Unfortunately, you'll never get everything you want there, in Mondstadt. People won't see what you do for them, because in their eyes you're a damned sinner."

"Shut up!" Wu Qiu sensed something was wrong. Although he didn't know what was wrong and believed that Yura wouldn't be affected by this, Wu Qiu still felt uneasy.

However, Wu Qiu's words were completely useless. The woman still smiled and said, "How pitiful. I can't bear to kill you. After all, even if you die, how many people in Mondstadt will remember you?"

"Come here, follow me, and I will give you everything you want. I will care for you and cherish you, and from now on, no one will talk about you or criticize you behind your back."

"From now on, you can do whatever you want. I will give you great power. You can kill those who hated you and let your family take control of Mondstadt again, making you the true king."

"Come, follow me, and I will be your master from now on. No one will hurt you again except me."

The woman was acting like a madwoman, her eyes blazing with a fiery light as she stared at Yura. But at the same time, Wu Qiu clearly sensed that something was wrong.

Turning around, Wu Qiu saw that Yura's body was trembling slightly, her eyes were flashing wildly, and a layer of red mist was surrounding her body.

"What's going on?"

Wu Qiu was stunned. He suddenly remembered that the red mist had also been on the Fools earlier, but he hadn't noticed it at first. Now it seemed there was something wrong.

"Hey, hey! Yura, are you alright..."

Before Wu Qiu could finish speaking, Yura suddenly glared at him fiercely, then grabbed his hand and flung it away forcefully.

"what-!"

Wu Qiu spun around and lay down on the ground.

"Cough cough!" Wu Qiu coughed a few times and looked up at Yura. At this moment, her eyes were glazed over, and she looked at the Red Diamond Assassin with a longing in her eyes.

"You wouldn't really turn against me just because of a few words, would you?"

Wu Qiu couldn't believe it, but when he went to see the Red Diamond Killer again, there was an additional special danger warning compared to before.

Special Danger Warning: A Seduction That Reaches the Heart

Chapter 120: Crimson Enchantress

"Charm!"

Wu Qiu was dumbfounded. "This thing can be played like this? Is this Su Daji or the Killer of Ten Thousand Ghosts?!"

However, Wu Qiu also realized that although this Wan Gui Hong Zuan assassin was of a very low level, she never relied on herself in battle.

"Hey! Yura! Yura! You haven't really been bewitched, have you? Wake up, don't go over there!"

Seeing Yura raise her leg to go over, Wu Qiu subconsciously reached out to grab her. But just as his hand reached out, Yura turned around and kicked him away with a spinning kick.

"Don't waste your energy. My assassin code name is Red Enchantress. My special poison can manipulate people's minds, amplifying their desires and greed. Once they fall for it, as long as I give them a hint, a hint that they can get everything by following me, then no one can escape my control."

“Normally, someone of her caliber would be quite troublesome. But this little girl clearly harbors a lot of hatred for Mondstadt. I only mentioned it casually, and she completely submitted to me.”

Hong Mei chuckled as she looked at Wu Qiu as if he were a clown. Wu Qiu couldn't accept anything she said.

"But how do you know about Yura's hatred for Mondstadt?" Wu Qiu asked, but it was more of a stalling tactic. He knew that after telling him so much, Hong Mei had no intention of letting him go.

"Hehehe..." Hongmei chuckled, then said, "Is it that difficult? Which member of the Lawrence family doesn't hate Mondl now?"

"Besides, you don't really think it's a coincidence that you came here to meet me, do you?"

Crimson Charm's last words completely awakened Wu Qiu. This was all a trap. Perhaps taming the Wind of the Aspect was her goal, but there must have been another layer to it: controlling Yola, or more precisely, controlling one of the Knights of Favonius.

Only in this way could they obtain all the city defense data of Mondstadt. And control was clearly something Red Charm excelled at.

Thinking about all this, Wu Qiu finally understood, and the way she looked at Hong Mei was different now. But at the same time, Wu Qiu still couldn't believe it; she really couldn't believe that Yura had been so easily bewitched.

"Does she really hate Mondstadt that much?" After meeting Yura, Wu Qiu found it hard to believe, incredibly hard to imagine that Yura could hate Mondstadt. She was a very kind girl, Wu Qiu was certain of that, but why? Why now…

Wu Qiu was completely baffled, but Hong Mei seemed to see right through him. "Oh, you can't believe it? That's ridiculous. I never thought there would be anyone in Mondstadt who could trust the Lawrence family so much."

"So that's how it is." She then looked at Yura and said, "Kill this person."

After giving the order, Yura nodded and then turned to look at Wu Qiu. Her eyes were unusually cold, and she looked at Wu Qiu as if he were a stranger.

"Yura, you..."

Wu Qiu had barely begun to speak when he froze, his eyes wide open, pupils trembling.

Yura had already raised one hand, a chill emanating from her wrist. As she looked at Wu Qiu through that icy membrane, a murderous aura followed.

Wu Qiu stared at Yura in disbelief. At the same time, a lightsaber pierced his chest from behind, protruding from the front.

As the lightsaber pierced through Wu Qiu, it also left a snowflake mark on his chest. The powerful chill instantly froze half of Wu Qiu's body.

Without uttering a single word, Wu Qiu stared intently at Yura, and then, with a thud, collapsed to the ground.

Bright red liquid flowed from beneath Wu Qiu, who lay motionless on the ground, seemingly dead beyond any doubt.

Turning around, Yura looked at Hongmei. She planted her longsword in the ground, knelt on one knee, and bowed her head, displaying submission to the woman before her.

"Good job, you did a great job."

Red Charm looked at Yura with satisfaction, and at the same time, her wariness lessened considerably. Yes, she was actually wondering whether Yura had truly submitted.

At first, she was wary, but when she saw Yura kill Wu Qiu without hesitation, Hong Mei's wariness lessened considerably.

Bending down, Hongmei cupped Yura's face in one hand, then lifted her chin and moved closer, intending to take final control.

"Don't worry, no one will talk about you anymore, and you won't be the descendant of any sinner. But from now on, you must submit to me; my words will be absolute commands, and you must not disobey them..."

puff!

Suddenly, Hong Mei's voice stopped. The smile on her face froze for a moment, and her pupils dilated and then contracted.

Bright red blood flowed from the corner of her mouth. Red Enchantress stared tremblingly at the empty space in front of her, feeling Yura holding her, the lightsaber piercing through her, and her life force rapidly draining away.
