Genshin Impact: Learning makes me stronger

Chapter 66: Confrontation in the Alley

As time passed, the atmosphere in the Cat's Tail Tavern gradually became lively. The original tranquility was replaced by noise, and Diona also began to get busy.

After staying for a while, Su Xun, Yingmei and Paimeng began to feel a little bored.

Petting cats requires a quiet environment, and the current atmosphere doesn't provide that kind of fun.

Therefore, they did not plan to stay any longer. After saying hello to Diona, they walked out of the Cat's Tail Tavern.

It was lunch time, so they went into the Deer Hunter Restaurant next door and had a delicious lunch.

After tea and dinner, the three of them strolled along the busy street, feeling the warmth of the afternoon sun, their faces filled with comfort and satisfaction.

"Where should we go next?" Paimeng patted his belly contentedly, a happy smile on his face, then turned to Su Xun and asked.

"Take a walk first to digest it." Su Xun answered helplessly, feeling a little amused.

Since it was he who wanted to treat, Paimon ate without any hesitation, so much so that her belly became round.

Even if you have four stomachs, you can't bear this, right? Aren't you worried that your stomach will burst?

Su Xun muttered to himself.

"Paimon is such an ass. He just had a big meal yesterday, but he ate so much again today." Yingmei was also both angry and amused.

"Hehe, since someone is treating me, why not eat it?" Paimeng smiled embarrassedly, then looked at Su Xun, "Su Xun, you are such a good person, thank you for the meal!"

"You're welcome, but remember not to eat so much next time, otherwise it will be bad for your health." Su Xun shrugged and advised.

"Yeah!" Paimon nodded quickly.

"Hmm? That's..." Su Xun and Paimon were chatting excitedly, but Ying noticed a scene that made her feel a little strange.

She saw Wendy walking towards an alley.

Wendy's appearance itself was not surprising, after all, she and Paimon had just met him in the morning.

But what puzzled Ying was that a debt collector from the Fools quietly followed Wendy, seemingly with some bad intentions.

This is not normal. Wendy is just an ordinary bard now. What could the Fatui intend to do to him?

Could it be that they discovered Wendy’s true identity as the God of Wind?

However, at present, only a few people on the top of the mountain that day know Wendy's true identity, and the Fatui should not be aware of it.

The more Ying thought about it, the more confused she became. She simply tugged at Su Xun's sleeve and said, "Su Xun, look over there."

"Um... Wendy? And the Fatui?"

Su Xun looked in the direction of Yingmei's finger and was slightly startled.

But the next second his eyes narrowed and his expression became serious.

Did the Fatui discover that Wendy is the God of Wind and want to attack him and seize the Heart of God?

"Wow... um——" Paimon also saw this scene and was about to scream, but Ying covered his mouth.

"Shh! Paimon, don't make a sound..." Yingmei said softly with a frown.

"Hmm..." Paimon reacted, blinked, and nodded to show that he understood.

Ying let go of her hand and asked Su Xun, who was standing beside her, "What should we do now?"

"Let's follow them." Su Xun narrowed his eyes and spoke softly.

As a friend, regardless of whether Wendy was acting in the plot or not, he couldn't just sit back and watch Wendy being humiliated.

"Ah? We will be discovered, right?" Paimon said nervously.

"No." After saying that, Su Xun waved his hand and used the concealment technique, instantly covering the figures of several people.

Watching their bodies disappear on the spot with their own eyes, Ying and Paimeng were shocked at first, then they realized that this was the magic used by Su Xun.

Both of them felt it was amazing, but now was not the time to chat, they immediately followed Su Xun who was already running forward.

The three of them followed Wendy and the debt collector carefully, trying not to make any noise.

Soon after, the two people in front walked into a narrow alley. The tall buildings on both sides blocked the sunlight outside, making the alley look a little dim.

At the end of the alley was a wall, with no way to go.

The debtor handler suddenly quickened his pace, obviously trying to block Wendy's escape route.

Seeing this, Su Xun immediately signaled Ying and Paimeng to hide in a corner, while he tried his best to hide his breath and hid behind a pile of wooden boxes.

Wendy in front has stopped.

And just as he stopped, the debtor handler suddenly reached out and tried to grab Wendy's shoulder, but Wendy seemed to have noticed it and dodged his attack nimbly.

"Who are you? Why are you following me?" Wendy turned to face the debtor handler and asked in a cold tone.

The debtor's handler sneered and ignored Wendy's question. He took a few steps back and then bent down to look at the old wooden door of the house next door.

"Madam!" the debt handler spoke respectfully.

"Creaky--" the wooden door slowly opened, dim light shone through from the house, and a hazy figure slowly walked out.

"Oh, I finally found my hamster~"

A seductive voice sounded, and a scantily clad, seductive woman walked into the narrow alley from behind the door. Her appearance immediately filled the air with a hint of danger.

Then, two Thunder Firefly Warlocks followed closely behind her like shadows, standing respectfully on both sides of her.

Ying and Paimon, who were hiding at the back, couldn't help but widen their eyes. Wow, this woman's aura is so strong!

Paimon looked at Ying with a questioning look, as if to ask: What should we do? Should we go over?

Ying pursed her lips, frowned and thought for a while, then she pulled Paimon and quietly retreated out of the alley.

The lady looked at Wendy with contempt and said sarcastically, "Look at him! He gnaws on wood stakes and rice bags, causing so much trouble for Mond. Is this our Lord Wind God?"

"Ha! You didn't mean a hamster, you meant a mouse!" Wendy retorted fearlessly.

Hearing this, a cold light flashed in the lady's eyes. She snorted coldly, then waved her right hand lightly, and a bone-chilling torrent of ice elements rushed straight towards Wendy.

Wendy's face changed, and wind elements quickly gathered around him, forming a green barrier, trying to resist this powerful attack.

But I don’t know whether he was showing weakness on purpose or he really couldn’t resist it. In any case, in less than two seconds, the cold current broke through his defense and it seemed that it would freeze him in the next moment.

However, at this critical moment, a buzzing sound was heard, and an invisible light shield suddenly appeared in front of Wendy, taking the blow.
