Paimon had been hiding to the side all along, unable to bring himself to take a bite.
Qianyuan beckoned to Paimeng: "Come over here, want to try Inazuma's specialty? It's not made by Kage."
Upon hearing that it wasn't made by Lei Movie, Paimon immediately flew over. Qianyuan leaned against the iron railing and reached out to cool it down rapidly, causing a layer of white frost to form on the railing.
"do you know?"
Chien said, "The castle tower, as the residence of the gods, is made of extremely luxurious materials, not of this world. For example, these iron railings are sweet, and the white ones are automatically solidified icing."
"real or fake?"
Paimon was highly skeptical. "This seems quite ordinary."
"If you don't believe me, take a lick. It's very sweet, even better than honey."
Paimon was skeptical, but he couldn't resist the taste Qianyuan described. In addition, the frost on the iron railings, which had condensed due to the temperature difference, resembled the crisp shell of rock candy. Under the sunlight, it had a warm, amber-like texture, and the rusty seams looked like the sweet cracks of caramel flowing through them.
She was really craving it.
Paimon swallowed hard, and tentatively licked the iron railing. Just one lick, he thought, and he was being careful. Even if it tasted bad, he could run away immediately!
After making up his mind, Paimon licked it and found that his tongue was stuck to it.
"Whoa whoa whoa whoa!"
She screamed, but dared not pull hard, and could only let out unintelligible screams.
"Tongue! Tongue!"
She cried out for help incoherently, tears welling up in her eyes.
"Why are you so careless?"
Qianyuan held Paimon in her palm, and flames shot from her fingertips to heat the iron railings, melting the frost on them, and Paimon's tongue was finally freed.
"You bad person!"
Paimon was truly angry this time. "You lied to me, waaaaah—"
Before she could finish speaking, Qianyuan took out a large lollipop she had prepared beforehand and stuffed it into her mouth to shut her up.
Paimon was initially a little scared, worried that it was another prank, but when the rich sweetness burst forth on her tongue, she immediately beamed with joy.
This bad guy doesn't seem so bad after all; he even has some redeeming qualities.
Yae no Miko, who was watching the drama unfold from the sidelines, sensed a familiar aura from Chiyori. She was a substitute... a fellow entertainer, just like me.
A sense of crisis rose in Yae no Miko's heart. He was the Thunder God's agent, and I was the Thunder God's servant. He was a fun-loving person, and so was I.
Wouldn't our attributes overlap?
Damn it, why did this alien have to come to Ying's side? Could it be that it will completely replace me?
Raiden was discussing the dishes she cooked with Ying, humbly listening to suggestions for improvement. However, having Raiden Mei's culinary theories, she quickly sensed Ying's perfunctory attitude.
Ying couldn't do anything about it; she couldn't bring herself to praise him, and that wasn't what Lei's film wanted.
But she couldn't be too harsh. She was still hoping to get news about her brother from Lei's movie. What if she got angry and refused to give it to her?
Therefore, Ying could only use vague words to try and get by.
"I already told you, you should give up on this track."
Qianyuan walked over and put her arm around Lei Yingdian's waist, "Or you could try a different way of cooking."
"In what way?"
In response to Lei's question, Qian Yuan explained, "You see, cooking is nothing more than processing ingredients. You just need to use processing methods that won't damage the ingredients."
To explain it to her in detail, Qianyuan even put it into practice.
He stuffed a piece of milk candy into Lei Yingdian's mouth and then kissed him, sharing the sweetness of the candy with Lei Yingdian.
"Wow~"
Paimon exclaimed, "Wasn't he supposed to be Thor's agent? He doesn't look like an agent at all, he looks like a husband."
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt a sinister gaze directed at her. The elegant and beautiful Yae no Miko stared at her with hostile eyes, which frightened Paimon so much that she hid next to Ying.
Ying looked thoughtful upon seeing Yae no Miko's expression.
After sharing the candy in front of everyone, Qianyuan licked her lips and said, "Imported candies are so delicious, they're much sweeter than the ones we had before. How about we focus on this market from now on?"
Lei Movie showed no embarrassment whatsoever, his expression remaining unchanged: "It's like buying chocolate, putting it in a pot to melt and then solidify it. I don't consider that real cooking."
"Well, there's nothing we can do about that then."
Qian Yuan shrugged. "If you're fire-attribute, you can grill meat; if you're ice-attribute, you can freeze ice cream. But lightning-attribute doesn't really help with cooking. You should study what you're good at, like developing your abilities."
Lei Yingdian then showed a hint of discouragement: "It's still because I don't have enough control over my power that this situation has occurred. Perhaps studying martial arts is also a solution."
She has already decided to let it go.
what?
When Ying saw that Qian Yuan's verbal sparring had made Lei give up his cooking skills, she couldn't help but wonder.
What about all the food waste I eat? Am I just another part of your scheme?
Yae no Miko smiled slightly: "Little one, how are you feeling?"
Ying took a deep breath, then slowly exhaled, her mouth filled with the smell of burning.
"So, can you tell me about my brother now?"
"can."
Lei Movie cuts straight to the point: "Your brother is currently the ruler of the Abyss Order."
"What did you say?"
Ying could hardly believe her ears. The Abyss Order was a group composed of non-human monsters that were enemies of civilizations on the surface and active all over the world.
Her first stop on her journey, Mondstadt, was the Abyss Order. The Abyss Mages corrupted the East Wind Dragon Dvalin, attempting to turn it into a biological weapon, and even attacked Mondstadt. They were clearly villains.
Dainesreb's words echoed in her ears: "'The Abyss'...is chaos and destruction, an unfathomable, insane turmoil that erodes the very foundations of this world. This is why even the 'Eastern Wind Dragon,' a follower of the gods, could not resist the erosion of the Abyss's power. And the monsters within the Abyss seek nothing more than to overthrow the world ruled by the gods..."
Ying asked with difficulty, "You mean my brother plans to destroy the world?"
"Hard to say."
Qianyuan said, "Anyway, he wants to fight against the principles of Heaven. As for what will happen to this world, he doesn't seem to care much."
Ying found it hard to accept: "How could my brother have become like this?"
"You'll have to ask him yourself, but I don't think he'll tell you."
Qian Yuan said, "Five hundred years ago, Kanria was destroyed by the seven gods sent by the Heavenly Principles because it had dabbled in forbidden knowledge."
"Shadow's sister died in that battle."
"In addition, all seven kingdoms have been corrupted by the power of the abyss, resulting in countless deaths and injuries. Their soldiers and former friends have all perished in this disaster."
"A creation of 'Gold' Rhinedoth, the chief alchemist of Kanria, it served as the vanguard of the Dark Beast Swarm, attacking various nations during the Kanria Cataclysm."
"After the destruction of Kanria, the surviving Kanria were cursed and became the Hilichurls scattered throughout Teyvat. The Pit Order was founded by the remnants of Kanria, inherited by your brother, who planned to restore Kanria."
Qianyuan said, "This is all we know. The rest of the information is up to you to find out."
"This is really..."
Ying was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to describe her complicated feelings. "Thank you for the information. Sigh, how could my brother do this?"
"You can't come up with a solution just by thinking about it."
Qianyuan said, "What you need most right now is to improve your strength. If you can beat your brother to his knees, then you can just ask him whatever you want to know. If he doesn't tell you, then whip him hard with a leather whip."
Ying's eyes lit up. Yes, why was she trapped in this world? Because she couldn't defeat that white god and her power was sealed.
Ultimately, it comes down to a lack of strength. If she were strong enough, she wouldn't have anything to fear and could just push through everything.
She stared intently at Chiyuki, and he could see it too. In the name of the movie, Inazuma was in charge, but she listened to Chiyuki.
The man in front of me is from another world, so he must be very strong.
"Can you guide me to become stronger?"
"of course can."
Qianyuan felt it would be a waste not to use such a useful tool. "It just so happens that Inazuma is in dire need of manpower, so you can receive training in the morning and go to the city to help in the afternoon. You can also experience the local customs and culture of Inazuma."
"it is good!"
Ying rubbed his hands together, full of fighting spirit, and said, "I'll go help out today."
She left the castle tower excitedly.
Hmph, brother, you abandoned me to become the Abyss Prince. The Abyss Order members are all over Teyvat, and they've fought me more than once. You must have known where I was all along.
I was so worried about you, posting missing person notices everywhere. You weren't secretly pleased with how considerate your sister was, while enjoying my anxious look and refusing to come out, were you?
Once I've improved my strength, I'll definitely smash your head in!
Ying was filled with determination.
Paimon followed Ying away, leaving only Yae no Miko in the castle tower. Chiyori pulled Rai Dianying to sit in his lap, her soft body feeling full and supple. He gently rested his chin on Rai Dianying's shoulder, his hands clasped together on her lower abdomen, his expression one of contentment.
"Priestess, as the chief priest of Narukami Shrine, Inatsuma has just encountered such a major incident. Don't you have any official duties to attend to?"
You kicked me out, and then you're here having a huge party with your shadow, right?
Yae no Miko understood Chiyori's thoughts and refused to leave. Her voice was soft and charming: "Narukami Taisha enshrines the Shadow. My job is to serve the Shadow. As for other trivial matters such as fortune telling and exorcism, the shrine maidens can handle them."
Her eyes flickered: "What, does Lady Qianyuan not want to see me?"
"The goddess is so beautiful, of course I would love to see her every day."
Qianyuan gently inhaled the fragrance emanating from Lei Yingdian. "I was just worried that you might have forgotten about your work. It's best if you haven't."
Lei Yingdian pressed down on Qianyuan's restless hand. She wasn't shy, but doing this in front of her family members always felt strange.
Moreover, she was well aware of Chiyuki's thoughts; she actually wanted to show the two of them being intimate in front of Yae no Miko, hoping to see Yae no Miko break down.
"The goddess is my friend, don't tease her like that."
Qianyuan stopped moving with regret.
Lightning emerged from Ray's body: "This puppet's body is truly exquisite. Shadow, I didn't expect you to have such skills. It seems your talent lies in this."
Her eyes sparkled: "Although I don't have a body now, Ying, can you make me one?"
"Sister, I don't plan to use your body."
Lei frowned. "Wouldn't it be better to share a body with me? I can protect you."
She's not letting lightning out now because Inazuma hasn't been properly dealt with yet, and she doesn't want her sister to see the chaos in Inazuma.
Once Inazuma has settled down, she will naturally accompany Raiden Makoto for a stroll and will never leave him alone outside.
She had already lost her sister once and didn't want to lose her a second time.
"Eh?"
Raiden was taken aback. "I'm willing to stay with you, Xiaoying, but wouldn't it be inconvenient to share a body?"
Lei's determination was firm: "There's nothing inconvenient about it. I can share everything with my sister."
Raiden glanced at Chiyuki: "It's not necessary to share everything. I just feel that you still have Chiyuki..."
She phrased it very tactfully: if Qian Yuan and Lei Yingdian did it, and she shared a body with Lei Yingdian, wouldn't that be equivalent to her joining the battle?
Yae no Miko immediately understood her meaning and chuckled, "Your Highness, Kage is very stubborn. No one can persuade her, not even me. Currently, there is only one person who can change her mind."
Her eyes flashed, making her hints quite clear.
Raiden Shin said to Chiyuki, "Kage is a blockhead, but you should know what I mean, right?"
“I do understand, but I don’t mind.”
Qianyuan pushed Lei Ying away and said seriously, "I can assure you, sister, that I will only hold hands and hug Ying, and I will not do anything further. How about that? That way you can feel at ease sharing a body with her."
He wasn't joking; he genuinely intended to do it. It wouldn't affect him much anyway. It was just a pity he couldn't witness General Thunder's expression shift from indifference to ecstasy. But since Thunder Movie wanted to share a body with his sister, he would never be an obstacle.
Even Yae no Miko hadn't anticipated this response, and Raiden Shin, as the person involved, was even more stunned. She hadn't expected Chien to be willing to go to this extent, and the way she looked at Chien was strange.
My sister found such an outstanding man?
Now it was her turn to feel a little awkward: "I didn't mean to be an obstacle for you. I can understand Kage's concerns, but in Inazuma's case, it's really fine."
