"..."

Listening to Kong's suggestion, Ying nodded silently, and the two of them walked towards the direction of the Church Order Institute.

Ying had long been accustomed to the panic-stricken atmosphere among the people in the city. She had seen it many times in Fontaine.

The monsters' attacks were not so urgent that the tail of the previous monster connected to the head of the next monster. After destroying the latest batch of monsters, Xumi took a short rest.

"The Traveler, and...your brother?"

When Ying brought Kong to find Nashida, Nashida was a little surprised, but was stunned when she saw Kong beside her.

"Long time no see, Narcida."

Sora waved towards Nashida.

"...The Prince of the Abyss."

Nashida frowned and became a little alert.

"No, no, no, the one standing before you now is not the Prince of the Abyss, but just a traveler from outside this world."

Kong shook his head and explained to Nashida. He seemed to be very familiar with Nashida.

"Do we need to get rid of him?"

Apep's voice suddenly came from behind. Ying was startled and turned around quickly, only to find that Apep had grabbed Kong's neck with one hand from behind.

Although she didn't use any force with her hands, she was sure she had him under control, and she looked at Nashida, waiting for her opinion.

"No need, please let him go for now. I want to know why you are here."

Nashida shook her head, and Apep finally let go of Sora's neck.

"It's really scary... But don't worry, Nashida. I have no ill intentions. I just brought my sister here to get an answer from you."

Kong rubbed his neck quickly. Apep hadn't used any force, but he felt as if he had been strangled and suffocated.

After hearing what Sora said, Nashida turned around and looked at Ying.

"Well, I want to know... where did Paimon go? She suddenly disappeared out of thin air. I searched for her in Fontaine for a long time but couldn't find her."

Ying nodded and explained to Nashida.

She has been looking for Paimon ever since the cracks appeared in the sky, but there has been no clue at all in these days.

"I see, my companion is missing..."

"But unfortunately, I can't help you. The Great Compassion Tree King has blocked the World Tree, and I can't use its power for the time being."

Nashida nodded, but then spread her hands helplessly and explained to Ying.

Since the Great Tree King had not met Ying and the others after his recovery, Nashida did not call her mother directly to avoid her misunderstanding.

"The Great Compassion Tree King... Wait, do you still remember the Great Compassion Tree King?"

Kong was stunned for a moment, then asked subconsciously.

"Of course I remember. Is there anything wrong?"

Apep, who stood next to Nashida, glanced at Sora and asked in confusion.

"No, it's nothing..."

"My memory is a bit confused, I can't remember which one is now... "

Sora shook his head, muttering to himself.

"Why? Did she do something?"

Ying couldn't help but ask Nashida.

"She...went to protect the World Tree alone. She didn't want me to go there."

Hearing Ying's question, Nashida did not hide anything and explained in a heavy tone that she had not been able to confirm the situation at the World Tree so far.

"It turned out to be like this..."

Ying was stunned for a moment, but soon thought of something and quickly took out her Chen Ge pot.

From the Chen Ge pot, Ying took out a pure white branch.

This was the gift that the World Tree left for her when it was a sapling. Ying tried to plant it in the Chen Ge Pot, but failed. The Chen Ge Pot's load was not enough for it to take root and sprout.

"The branches of the World Tree? When..."

Nashida was a little surprised, she didn't remember Ying getting this branch.

"Will it help you?"

Ying did not explain in detail, but just held the branch and asked Nashida.

"It should be possible. Although it cannot bypass the blockade of the Great Compassion Tree King, it can teleport me to the location of the World Tree."

Narcida nodded.

"Then let's go. I'll go with you."

In order to confirm Paimon's location, Ying hurriedly spoke to Nashida and handed the branch in his hand to her.

"and many more."

Just when Nashida was about to take Ying to the location of the World Tree, Apep called her.

"…Take it, go and help me protect Buyer. I am enough for Xumi."

A ball of pure and huge grass elemental power gathered in Apep's hand, and then he pressed it into Nashida's arms.

These forces poured into Nashida's body frantically, causing her young body to grow at a speed visible to the naked eye.

After growing up, Nashida temporarily took on the body shape of a young girl, a body shape between her original young self and the mature Great Mercy Tree King.

"Well, thank you Apep, don't worry."

Nashida nodded, then mobilized her own power, teleported using the branches of the World Tree, and disappeared into the Church Hall with Ying.

Seeing this, Kong raised his hand and snapped his fingers, then walked into the abyss portal that suddenly appeared.

"……call."

"Xumeru has me, don't worry, no one will get hurt."

"I can finally cast my spell freely now that you are gone. It is not my character to have to guard the homes of humans all the time."

Apep exhaled and then flew towards the outside world.

The next moment, a giant emerald green dragon that seemed to be big enough to surround the entire world appeared in the Xumi realm.

Apep used all his strength to make his body expand continuously. In comparison, the entire Xumi City seemed a little small.

"Little monsters, it's time to learn who is the most ancient ruler of all plants and trees."

Afterwards, countless spikes tens of meters high emerged from the land of Xumi, indiscriminately piercing all living things outside the city of Xumi.

With just this one strike, all the monsters in the entire Xumi Rainforest were temporarily cleared out.

……

"Listen to my orders, little ones. Follow the king to shake the earth!"

At the foot of Tianheng Mountain, little Ruotuo stood on top of the ancient rock dragon lizard and loudly gave orders to a large group of rock dragon lizards.

"Prepare for the seismic wave, let the foreign monsters see the wrath of the local monsters!"

Under the control of Xiao Ruota, the rock dragon lizards worked together to create an earthquake that spread outward.

This kind of earthquake ability can only be exerted by a huge number of rock dragon lizards, unless the Rock Dragon King does it himself.

Under Xiao Ruotu's control, the seismic waves spread out 180 degrees in only one direction.

The farther the earthquake waves spread, the more violent the earth shaking becomes. Therefore, there is no need to deliberately avoid the Qianyan Army line in front of Tianheng Mountain. The earthquake waves will only show their power when they reach a distance.

As the earth raged in the distance, the surging cracks in the ground swallowed up the monsters, and the collapse of the mountains buried the monsters.

The aftermath of the earthquake almost made the Qianyan Army on the front line lose its stability, but fortunately it was not serious.

"That's not cool enough, let's have another big wave. Let's flatten the entire Teyvat except for Liyue Harbor! That way we can help everyone defeat the monsters together!"

"Listen up, little ones. Thousand dragons will form a formation. Follow me... Ouch?!"

Little Ruota wanted to transform and make a big move, but before he could finish his words he was hit hard on the head.

"Don't mess around, come with me first."

After knocking on little Ruotu's head, Nangong Ya pulled her hand and flew into the air, leaving behind a group of bewildered rock dragon lizards who wanted to follow but could not fly.

"No, where are we going? I'm a rock dragon. If you take me flying that high, I'll be afraid of heights..."

Xiao Ruota said depressedly that it had been a long time since she had caused an earthquake without considering the consequences, and she hadn't had enough fun just now.

"Let's go mend the sky."

Nangong Ya said this while pointing at the faintly visible cracks in the purple sky.

"...Ah? You, you're not going to treat me as a sky-repairing stone, are you?"

Upon hearing this, little Ruota immediately shrank his neck and asked weakly.

"Who are you looking down on? I don't need that kind of thing. Just be a bodyguard. I've already informed Zhongli, but it's none of his business whether he comes or not."

"If possible, I would like to touch the purple liquid. After all, although it is flowing, it should be connected to the entire abyss, right?"

Nangong Ya explained to Xiao Ruotuo.

She was not afraid of how big the abyss was, but she was afraid that it was not a whole.

When the cracks in the sky grew bigger and stronger monsters appeared, she realized a problem. If she didn't take the initiative to attack, she would be really overwhelmed when the monsters from the abyss arrived. It would be better to directly decapitate the abyss itself, or repair the border of Teyvat first to prevent the abyss from entering.
