"Then give me a God's Eye!"

Now that he has a Geo Vision, let's get an Anemo Vision and equip it with the Anemo one, then he can use the Anemo element openly!

"Although people believe that being watched by a god grants one the Eye of God, the distribution of the Eye of God is not actually controlled by the gods. If you want it, I can only give you a glass ball." Wendy took a glass ball shaped like the Heart of God from her waist and handed it to him.

"A glass ball it is then..." Jiang Bai took a look, and the glass ball actually looked quite decent.

Zhongli gave a fake God's Eye, and Wendy also gave a fake God's Eye; these people certainly have a whole set of ways to fake things.

He put it away without any hesitation, not expecting Wendy to actually give him a God's Eye.

"You mean this is just a glass marble?" Paimon exclaimed in surprise.

"Yes, it can help avoid some unnecessary suspicion."

"So you gave yours to him, what about you?"

"Just make another one."

"Speaking of which, what exactly are the Eye of God and the Heart of God, and what is the connection between them?" Kong asked in confusion.

“I want to know too!” Jiang Bai chimed in.

Wendy didn't hide anything, "This isn't a topic that can be discussed in ordinary conversation, but it's okay to tell you quietly. The Eye of God is an external magical organ possessed by a very small number of people in this world. They use the Eye of God to guide elemental power..."

"In fact, every possessor of the Eye of God is qualified to become a god, and is therefore called a [Gen God], possessing the qualification to ascend to the Sky Island."

"Genshin Impact? This is the first time I've ever heard of this term," Jiang Bai remarked.

It seems I've learned something I couldn't help but know.

"This is a secret known only to true gods! In short, we don't need a rudimentary organ like the Eye of God. Instead, the magical organ of a god resonates and connects with Sky Island, which is the Heart of God."

"If you lose the Heart of God, can you still use elemental power?"

"Of course, after all, the Seven Gods were only granted the Heart of God after becoming the Seven Rulers of the Mortal World. Before that, the Demon Gods didn't use the Heart of God to wield elemental power..."

Jiang Bai seemed to be deep in thought.

In other words, manipulating elemental power without relying on the Eye of God is not an exception; some high-level beings are able to manipulate elemental power directly without external magical organs.

In terms of status, he, Kong, these outsiders, are naturally higher than the natives, even comparable to demons...

No wonder Zhongli treated him so differently, talking to him so much; perhaps she saw him as a powerful weapon against the Rock God!

But the diligent and conscientious Rock God is different from this idle Wind God, who is known as the God of War!

If the Fools, who have only gained a little of the Ice God's power, can kill him in one fell swoop, how strong must the Rock King Emperor be if he possesses all of his power?

Jiang Bai quickly shook the jumbled thoughts out of his head. He couldn't afford to mess with this...

The place where the wind rises remains the same as before. Wendy places Jiang Bai on the stone steps in front of the statue and stands under the tree, slowly healing her wounds.

As the wind blew through the trees, Wendy's condition visibly improved.

Jiang Bai leaned against the statue and looked at Wendy. "If I'm not mistaken, the person who stole your Heart of God should be the executor of the Fatui."

"That's right, she is [Lady], the eighth seat of the eleven executors of the Fools. Every executor of the Fools, like her, was granted divine authority by the Queen of Winter's End, gaining power beyond that of mortals."

"The Queen of the Winter Kingdom? Isn't that the Ice Goddess?" Paimon knew a little about the Winter Kingdom.

Of the seven kingdoms of Teyvat, only Winter is called the Kingdom of Winter, which is ruled by a state, and its ruler is the Ice God.

"Hmm, one of the Seven Gods, the Ice Queen who sits in Winter Palace, the sole object of all the Fatui's loyalty. Although the relationships between the Seven Gods are not all very harmonious, I never expected that she would actually be plotting to seize the Hearts of the Gods from the other gods..." Wendy seemed unaware of the Ice Queen's motives for seizing the Hearts of the Gods.

Jiang Bai suddenly thought of Zhong Li. If the Ice Queen was plotting to seize the hearts of other gods, wouldn't the Rock God also be their target?

In this way, Zhongli fits the image of the Fools' executor very well!

His strength is unknown, but he is very strong. He also has a grudge against the Geo God, so he might be plotting to steal the Geo God's Heart!

However, Zhongli seems to have always been a guest retainer of the Hall of Rebirth, ever since Hu Tao wasn't even the head of the Hall. He's also from Liyue, so it's unclear whether he's an executive officer of the Fools of Winterfell...

Jiang Bai was confused...

Chapter 233 You Smell the Abyss

"Alas, the seven human kingdoms should have formed an alliance to jointly face the threat of the Abyss Order. The Fools possess the strongest military force among the seven kingdoms, yet they were used to steal the Sky Harp, covet divine power, and use the Dragon Plague to put pressure on the Knights of Fatalis..." Wendy shook his head and sighed.

"Is the Abyss Order really that powerful? Does it require an alliance of seven nations to confront them?"

Jiang Bai did not have an accurate understanding of the Abyss Order's power.

Although the Abyss Order was able to control Hilichurls and provided many Hilichurls with crossbows, Jiang Bai had only seen Abyss mages and had never witnessed the organization's true strength.

Even during the recent Dragon Plague in Mondstadt, the Abyss Order did not directly control Dvalin. Instead, they took advantage of the situation when Dvalin was being corrupted by energy. They only heard the name of the ruler behind it, the "Princess," and did not even see any higher-ranking figures.

Wendy's expression was serious. "The Abyss Order is spread throughout the entire continent. This plan to turn Dvalin into a weapon of war is just a minor part of their scheme. But even such a minor plan has caused Mondstadt and the Knights of Favonius a great deal of trouble. If their grand conspiracy were to be carried out, the consequences would be unimaginable..."

“That makes sense…” Jiang Bai nodded.

However, destroying the Abyss Order is not something that can be done overnight. He felt that the real key was the ruler behind it, who was called the "Princess".

Wendy looked up at the sky. "Traveler, I remember you also have something you want to ask me."

"There's no need to ask anymore," Kong shook his head.

He had initially wanted to ask Wendy if she knew anything about his sister, but after spending so much time together, he knew that Wendy couldn't be the god who took his sister away.

Although Kong didn't say it, Wendy clearly knew what he wanted to ask. He shrugged, "Regarding your sister, I don't know which god took her away. I'm afraid you'll only truly understand by traveling throughout the Seven Kingdoms..."

We talked about the reason for seeking the gods before, and it's not a secret for the Knights.

Kong nodded. To find his sister, he would have to look in other places, and who knows, he might find some clues.

"I borrowed the wind from the Seven Heavens Statue without your permission before," Sora said, bringing up the matter.

Although I don't know why I can control the wind element, now that the Wind God is here, I can use it legitimately after I tell the Wind God.

"Haha, use it with gratitude. It would be even better if you could buy me a glass of dandelion wine!" Wendy said, winking at Jiang Bai.

Jiang Bai lowered his eyes, put his hands on his hips, and pointed to his legs.

Wendy averted her gaze.

Paimon was utterly confused. "What kind of riddle are you two playing?"

Jiang Bai crossed his arms. "This guy wants me to buy him a drink."

"Let's continue, let's continue!" Wendy laughed, bringing the topic back on track.

He addressed the empty passage with a somewhat solemn expression:

"Traveler, when you embark on your journey again, always remember the meaning of travel itself. The birds of Teyvat, the poetry and the cities, the queen, the fools, and the monsters are all part of your journey. The destination does not mean everything; before you reach it, observe this world with your own eyes!"

“Wendy…” Kong stared blankly, lost in thought.

Jiang Bai sensed that Wendy's words had a hidden meaning, but it seemed to have nothing to do with him.

Sora is a traveler in this world, but what about him?

And what about him? He didn't even know what he was.

Wendy blinked. "That's enough of the Anemo's warning. Now it's Wendy's time! If you want to talk more, do it now. Bards don't stay in one place forever."

Kong shook his head. He had asked almost everything he wanted to ask. If there were any more questions he wanted to ask, he could ask him again later.

"It's still early, so we might as well stay in Mondstadt a little longer. After all, if we want to see the Geo Archon, we'll have to wait for Liyue's [Invocation Ritual]. The Geo Archon will appear and guide Liyue's development for a year, and there's still some time before the Invocation Ritual!"

"Mmm! We still need to go see Kaiya. He said he'd treat us to fried carrots and pork with honey sauce, but he hasn't done it yet!" Paimon's mouth watered at the mention of fried carrots and pork with honey sauce.

"go Go!"

Kong looked at Jiang Bai, "What about you? Are you going to recuperate in Mondstadt?"

Jiang Bai pointed at the unreliable Wind God, "You don't need to worry about me, this guy will take responsibility."

Kong was still a little worried about him, after all, Wendy didn't seem like the kind of person who could take care of a patient.

"Don't look at me with that suspicious look. This guy is a god, after all." Jiang Bai waved his hand, telling them to leave quickly. He had some things he wanted to ask Wendy alone.

"Okay, we're off then!"

"Goodbye and don't come back to me. Remember to pay me back next time we meet!"

Upon hearing the words "repay the money," Kong, who had only taken two steps, stumbled and then ran away as if fleeing.

The ensemble leader, Mora, hasn't paid yet; they're penniless and simply can't repay the debt.

Wendy stretched and sat down next to Jiang Bai. In a short while, his injuries had completely healed.

"Alright, my friend, they're gone now. What do you want to ask?"

Jiang Bai looked at Wendy, the first deity he had ever encountered.

Although this god doesn't do anything productive, he is a god who has lived since the beginning of Mondstadt.

This means that he can answer many of his questions.

“You should know by now that I have amnesia. I don’t know my past, nor do I know where I came from…” Jiang Bai stretched out his two hands, one hand gathering rock element and the other gathering wind element. “But judging from the abilities I possess, I should also be an outsider to Teyvat, right?”

Although he was almost 99% certain of this fact after talking with Zhongli, he still wanted to hear Wendy's opinion.

Wendy nodded. "That's right, you have the scent of the stars... and the scent of the abyss."

"The Abyss?" Jiang Bai frowned slightly. "What do you mean? What exactly is the Abyss?"

Although Catherine of the Adventurers' Guild always talks about heading towards the stars and the abyss, Jiang Bai has no idea what the abyss is or where it is.

"The Abyss, located in the weakest points of Teyvat's borders, could also appear anywhere in present-day Teyvat." Venti's expression became noticeably more serious when you mentioned the Abyss.

“You have the aura of the abyss, but it’s not strong. You must have just lived in the abyss for a long time.”

"What is a boundary?" Jiang Bai felt increasingly confused.

"That's a long story, involving the very nature of Teyvat, something you can't understand right now."

"I hate people who only say half of what they mean..." Jiang Bai's hands were itching.

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

Chapter 234 You are a wanderer who has strayed into Teyvat

Wendy smiled mysteriously, "Some things, once you know about him, he also knows about you. So, if you want a peaceful life, it's better not to know."

Jiang Bai looked at him suspiciously, "Do you know something about my past?"

"I don't know!"

Seeing Wendy shaking her head, Jiang Bai's hands became even more itchy.

He was silent for a moment, then asked earnestly, "How do the gods view outsiders like me and Kong?"

Wendy didn't give an immediate answer, but thought for a while. "Well...every god has a different perspective! To me, you are my friends, and you have no ill intentions towards Teyvat, so I welcome your arrival."

"What about the other gods? Like the Rock God...?"

"You're worried that the old man will kick you out of Liyue, aren't you?" Wendy winked mysteriously again. "Don't worry! The old man may be old, but he's very open-minded in this regard! He might even welcome you more than I do!"

Perhaps because I care too much, I always subconsciously start to worry about certain things.

Hearing Wendy say that, Jiang Bai secretly breathed a sigh of relief. "I hope so..."

"However, although you and Kong are both outsiders, you are different from him."

"Different? What do you mean?"

Wendy rested her chin on her hand, pulled out an apple from somewhere, and ate it while mumbling somewhat indistinctly:

"He came to Teyvat with a special mission, and his fate is watched by many people and is related to many things... But you are different. You are a wanderer who has strayed into Teyvat. Your fate is not affected by anyone."

Jiang Bai couldn't hold back and punched him on the forehead.

"And you say you don't know my past!"

Wendy covered her head. "I really don't know!"

“Fate...fate…” Jiang Bai ignored Wendy and murmured the word, feeling for the first time that the world was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.

"Then what is his mission? Why would the fate of people from beyond this world be related to Teyvat?"

Hearing Jiang Bai's question, Wendy looked up at the sky but didn't say anything.

Jiang Bai followed Wendy's gaze to the sky. He knew there was a Sky Island in the sky, the place where the gods lived, but he couldn't see anything through the thick clouds.
