When the usurper arrived, although he was domineering, he also gave the dragon king the option to submit and submit, and did not kill the dragons from the beginning.

If we had submitted back then, would everything have turned out differently? Would dragons and humans have coexisted peacefully?

Although she felt regret, she did not believe that her choice at the time was wrong; she simply could not accept the current outcome, since the usurper was an intruder.

The Dragon Kings only saw the usurper as an intruder, but failed to realize just how powerful the usurper truly was. Now, upon reflection, the fact that even the God of the Three Months, whose combined power could restore a portion of the Sovereign's strength, chose to submit shows just how powerful the usurper was.

It now deeply understands that when facing the strongest, one must never defy the opponent's domineering ways, or destruction will be the only outcome.

"Heh~ You know what's good for you." Los Saint nodded in satisfaction. If Apep continues to be so sensible, it's not impossible for it to regain control of the 'grass element'.

He raised his hand and pointed his finger at Appepp's forehead.

hum~

A 'dimensional portal' opened.

"Go, go to my world where you'll be greeted by someone you know."

"Yes," Apep replied, then turned back to look at the vast land of Sumeru with lingering reluctance. Finally, he sighed and plunged his head into the 'dimensional passage,' his slender body disappearing into it like a snake entering a hole.

……

Meanwhile, in Liyue's Dihua Prefecture, Stone Gate is an important trade route for Mondstadt to enter Liyue.

The wooden trade route that was originally built has been destroyed by monsters because no one has maintained it. Even the most prominent landmark building in Dihua Prefecture, the Wangshu Inn, is mostly dilapidated, resembling a ruin that has been abandoned for decades.

A girl with short blonde hair and a white dress tumbled down the broken wooden steps of the stone gate. A flying sprite flew past with a start. Behind them was a seven- or eight-meter-tall Hilichurl King that resembled a miniature mountain. Behind the King followed a dozen Hilichurl thugs, and behind that were dozens of Hilichurls holding wooden sticks and chattering loudly.

"Ahhhhhh..." The blonde girl rolled several times on the ground. Her clothes, which were already dirty, became even dirtier, and her golden hair was covered in dust.

"Ying! Waaah... Are you alright? Did you hurt yourself anywhere?" Paimon flew to the girl's side, tears welling up in his eyes. He didn't know what to do with his hands and could only worry anxiously.

"I'm about to die..." Ying felt pain all over her body, but fortunately she was physically strong and was not injured or cut.

She really wants to die right now.

She's so unlucky. Is there really anyone in the world more unlucky than her?

No, is there really anyone in this world?

She hasn't encountered a single person since she woke up, and the only intelligent one is Paimon, whom she lifted from the sea.

This world is filled with incredibly aggressive elemental creatures and monsters. She has been slaying monsters all the way from Mondstadt with a broken sword she found.

Moreover, she can't defeat most of the monsters.

She also encountered villages in Mondstadt, but there was no one there. It seemed that the humans in the villages had suddenly disappeared. Apart from obtaining 'wind elemental power' from a statue and picking up some items from a monster horde, she got nothing else.

"Ying, waaaah, don't die! What will I do if you die?!" Paimon cried anxiously, pushing her shoulders repeatedly.

"How dare you say that? You're such an incompetent guide! Where are all the humans in Mondstadt? Tell me, where have all the humans in Mondstadt gone?" Ying said resentfully.

During this period, she was either fighting monsters or on her way to fight monsters, eating wild fruits or grass roots, and occasionally catching a few birds or hunting a wild boar.

Why not go fishing? She did want to, but staying in one place for more than an hour would surely attract monsters, so she was even worried about being attacked by monsters when she slept.

"I'm so sorry, so sorry..." Paimon quickly apologized, "But in my memory, Mondstadt isn't like this."

"Memory? How long ago? Could this world have experienced an apocalypse a few months ago or even longer ago, and all of humanity have died out?!" Ying felt numb.

"This, I, I, I..." Paimon lowered her head, feeling wronged. She didn't know either, but that's how it was in her memory.

"Alright, alright, those guys are catching up, run!" Ying watched as the Hilichurl King, who had already jumped down from the stone gate, stood up and took off running.

She's so frustrated right now. Her powers completely disappeared after she woke up. Otherwise, she could kill a bunch of mere monsters with a single breath. Now she's being chased around. It's so miserable.

It's fortunate that Paimon was caught in the trap; otherwise, she would have gone crazy without anyone to talk to.

"Ying, I promise, there will definitely be someone in Liyue! There will definitely be someone in Liyue!" Paimon quickly patted his chest to assure him.

"If no one's around, I'll put you in a pot and stew you," Ying said melancholy.

"Um... well, I can't guarantee that..." Paimon immediately backed down and said weakly, "Also, can you please stop trying to eat me? I don't taste good at all. Let's go steal some bird eggs instead."

"Most of the bird eggs I steal end up in your stomach," Ying said irritably.

"Hehe..." Paimon scratched his head awkwardly, then suddenly looked ahead with wide eyes and excitedly pointed forward, saying, "Look, Ying, look! It's a person! It's a person!"

"I knew it! There would definitely be people in Liyue! Hmph, I'm a pretty good guide." Paimon said proudly, hands on his hips.

Ying looked at Paimon with a scrutinizing gaze. "What makes you unqualified as a guide?"

But at least we saw humans.

Ying looked ahead at the road and saw a man walking towards her with his hands behind his back. He had black hair and golden eyes, just like hers, but in a darker shade. His clothes looked ordinary, but he didn't look like a working resident; he seemed more like a nobleman.

Luo Sheng smiled as he watched the blond-haired boy running towards him, then stopped. Was he getting excited because he hadn't seen anyone in so long? How pitiful.

"Um, hello..." Paimon greeted first, then hid behind Luminous. Luminous turned around and glanced at him speechlessly.

"Hello, are you from Liyue?"

“No,” Luo Sheng said with a smile.

“Wow, that’s so efficient,” Paimon exclaimed.

"You want to ask why we haven't met anyone for so long, right?" Luo Sheng smiled at Ying. Although Ying looked like she was sixteen or seventeen, she was actually not much younger than Zhong Li. However, her face was indeed very pleasing to the eye.

"Do you know what?" Paimon ran out from behind Ying, "We've come all the way from Mondstadt and haven't seen a single person. What's going on?"

“Because all the humans have left this planet,” Los Saint said. “This planet is about to be destroyed, so they all left.”

"Huh???" Ying was dumbfounded: "The horse, is it about to be destroyed?"

"The planet is going to be destroyed!" Paimon cried out in disbelief.

Ying broke out in a cold sweat. The planet was about to be destroyed, and everyone on the planet had left. Had her brother been taken away as well?

Her memory is still of being blocked by a strange god and then being sealed away.

If her brother hadn't been taken away, he would have come looking for her long ago.

The planet is about to be destroyed, which means she will be destroyed as well, right?

Hey! I'm not on the spaceship yet! I'm not on the spaceship yet!! Wait! Where's my spaceship?!

"Wait a minute, the planet is about to be destroyed, why are you still here?" Paimon looked at Los Saint with a questioning look.

“Because I was the one who took humanity away,” Luo Sheng said with a smile.

"Huh?" Ying and Paimon were both stunned.

"I'm here to take away the rest of you. Do you want to leave?" Luo Sheng said with a smile.

"The planet is about to be destroyed, of course I have to leave. Am I just waiting to die if I don't leave?" Ying said hurriedly, without any doubt. After all, the Mondstadt people were gone, and Liyue was probably gone too, otherwise the roads would have been maintained.

She dared not gamble on the possibility; if she lost, she would truly die.

"Oh, by the way, have you ever seen someone who looks a lot like me, a guy?" Ying asked quickly.

"Yes, he has blond hair, blond eyes, and wears dark clothes, including a revealing crop top. His name is Kong, right? He left with us too," Luo Sheng said with a smile.

This isn't a lie. I only said he left, but I didn't say when he left. Anyway, we caught that kid and sent him there to work.

"..." Ying was initially happy to hear the news about her brother, but the next moment her cheeks began to twitch: "Li, he's gone..." An unnamed fire rose from her heart and shot straight to the top of her head.

'That bastard Kong! He didn't even come looking for me! If I see you, I'll stab you dozens of times!'

"Congratulations, Ying, you've found news of your family," Paimon said happily.

"Congratulations for what? That bastard Sora!" Ying gritted her teeth, her back teeth almost breaking. However, she had no doubt that she had been abandoned. There must have been some reason, such as Sora being captured and taken away.

Luo Sheng raised his hand, and a 'dimensional portal' opened beside Ying.

"This is the passage for the Teyvat humans to leave. It can only last for thirty seconds. I still have to find the other lost people. Goodbye." After saying this, Los Saint disappeared from the spot.

"Gone?" Paimon was startled when he saw the living person suddenly disappear.

"Hmm..." Ying hesitated a little as she looked at the passageway beside her. She wanted to verify how much of what the other person said was true or false, but she only had thirty seconds, which was not enough time to verify it.

"Paimon, hold my hand, so we don't end up in different places."

"Okay, okay, you'd better hold on tight to me." Paimon quickly grabbed Ying's arm.

Ying now has no choice but to bite the bullet and step into the 'dimensional portal'.

Ying and Paimon disappeared from this universe the instant they stepped into the 'dimensional portal'.

……

Inawa

At this time, Inazuma had lifted the "Eye Hunting Order" and the "Isolation Order" compared to the previous Inazuma. Under the successive major events, the gods of Inazuma had no choice but to come out of their seclusion, after all, the whole of Inazuma was filled with the fear that the world was about to be destroyed.

This panic was a shared fear among both nobles and commoners, throughout the entire country. If the gods of Inazuma did not step forward, the whole country would collapse.

At this time, all the people of Inazuma gathered on Narukami Island to seek the protection of their Inazuma gods. However, even with all the people of Inazuma gathered together, the total population of Inazuma was only just over one million, far below the three million population threshold of other countries.

Inazuma Castle cannot accommodate a million people, so the population is scattered and concentrated in Inazuma Castle, the island, the White Fox Field, and the Kamisato Mansion.

The population relocation involving the entire Inazuma region led to the near collapse of order in Inazuma, particularly in the distribution of food and other resources.

At first, Lei was confused, and then she was even more at a loss. She didn't know how to govern a country, and her attempt to govern the country by forcing herself to do so only made things worse.

Fortunately, under her orders, no one starved to death or there were any serious incidents such as looting, arson, or vandalism.

In the past, these things could have been left to the Divine Child. Although the Divine Child did not have her sister's ability to govern the country, she was much better than her.

But on that day, after she sensed her sister's presence for a moment, the divine child also disappeared shortly afterward. Now all the familiar people had left her. At that moment, she felt her heart was aching, and her consciousness was sinking into endless darkness.

Then she heard that other countries had moved to another world because the world of Teyvat was going to be destroyed.

She couldn't believe it at the time; how could Sky Island not have been notified of such an important matter?

But without any notification from the Sky Isles, how did the other six nations manage to leave Teyvat with their own people?

She went to Mondstadt and Liyue to check, and they really had disappeared. She didn't go to Sumeru Tower, but the disappearance of the two countries was enough to prove everything.

Has Inazuma been abandoned by Sky Island because she didn't receive any notification from Sky Island?

Unable to tell her people this devastating news, she could only try her best to maintain order in Inazuma.

She discovered that the only place on Narukami Island where the Inazuma people gathered was the Kamisato House, which was doing quite well. The Kamisato family was also very prestigious among the Inazuma people, so she promoted the Kamisato family to manage the national affairs of Inazuma.

Los Saint walked through the streets of Inazuma. The streets were deathly still. It wasn't that there were no people on the streets; there were many people, but everyone had a gloomy and lifeless expression. The whole of Inazuma was shrouded in a pessimistic mood.

Although Inazuma's culture is inherently inclined towards "mono no aware" (the pathos of things), at this moment it feels more like a fear of being lost and uncertain about the future.
