Genshin Impact: I was robbed at the beginning and I hated being ranked third!

Morax's emotionless eyes looked at Xiao who was standing beside him. The familiar look reminded Xiao of Morax during the Demon War a thousand years ago.

This was the look that Morax used to look at his enemies at that time, and a chill rushed from the soles of Xiao's feet straight to his forehead.

Although Xiao didn't know what happened to Morax, he knew that the strange Morax in front of him was not the Emperor he remembered.

For his own safety, Xiao has prepared for the worst. Although he does not want to fight with Morax, he also knows that his chances of winning are very slim even if he fights.

Xiao gathered most of his strength in his legs, and after Morax's action in the next moment, he would quickly dodge away from here.

However, Morax did not move. His eyes were fixed on Xiao, and he frowned from time to time, as if he was struggling with something.

Xiao also noticed Morax's strange movements, so without any hesitation, he turned into a black light and disappeared from the spot in an instant. When Morax reacted, Xiao was no longer on the ground.

Morax did not chase after it, but instead came to sit next to another silkworm pupa, and above the other silkworm pupa, there was a dark breeze surrounding the cicada pupa.

Morax sat on the silkworm pupa and closed his eyes, beginning to rest. Under the pupa, the rich abyss energy continuously provided nutrients to the pupa to help it grow.

Xiao escaped from the Rock Abyss, turned around and saw that Morax did not chase him, and he was relieved.

"What on earth happened to the Emperor? Why did he become what he was a thousand years ago? The extremely evil aura on his body is even worse than his karma."

Suddenly, Xiao glanced at his arm inadvertently, and then gave a self-deprecating smile.

"I'm afraid the Emperor won't be able to recognize me standing in front of him now. But we still need to find out whether the Abyss caused the Emperor to become like this..."

Xiao knew very well that if it was the Abyss who did it, then there might be another account to settle between him and the Abyss.

"Let's go back and tell Ningguang what happened here. With her wisdom and strategy, she should be able to come up with a solution."

"If it was really the work of the Abyss, then who can stop the Emperor who has been transformed by the Abyss? Is it me as I am now? Or other gods?"

Xiao has no confidence in either of the two choices. As a participant and experiencer of the Demon War, Xiao knows how powerful Morax is.

As an enemy of Morax, Xiao is well aware of what the loser's fate will be: being pierced by rock spears falling from the sky, or being buried under the sea by mountain ridges.

He sighed slightly, threw away all the random thoughts in his mind, and flew towards Tianheng Mountain at an extremely fast speed.

Piao quickly returned to the Jade Pavilion. Just as Ningguang was about to sit down to continue dealing with business, he saw Xiao standing in front of him with a nervous look on his face.

Whether before or after becoming a god, Xiao's expression was always calm. Ningguang was deeply touched by this, and only in front of those two adults would Xiao show a reserved demeanor.

Now Xiao has a nervous expression, which means that this matter is probably very serious, so serious that Xiao has no way to solve it.

Yin Guang's expression couldn't help but become serious. He walked around the left bank and came in front of Xiao, looking at him with a serious expression.

Xiao did not keep the story in suspense and told Ningguang everything he had seen and heard. The more Ningguang listened, the more frightened she became.

She even forgot how to breathe at the very end. If Baiwen hadn't reminded her, Ningguang might have fainted from lack of oxygen.

"Great Sage Conquering the Demons, is everything you said true? Under the abyss is the Emperor who has been demonized by the abyss!!!"

Ningguang didn't want to shout so loudly, but the thought of this made him unable to calm down. If the people of Liyue saw that the Geo King had fallen into the abyss, Ningguang couldn't imagine how huge the consequences would be.

Just thinking about it is suffocating, but this is not the most urgent thing at the moment. The most urgent thing at the moment is to confirm whether Morax still has self-awareness.

Is the current Geo King their enemy? Lingguang looked at Xiao, and Xiao nodded.

Originally, he was the only one who could do this. Escaping once does not mean anything. What matters is that you have the courage to face him after you escape.

At present, apart from the great spirit of Nata, several other gods and Yang Ming in Teyvat, only Xiao's strength can be regarded as the strongest.

"Next, I will go to visit the Emperor to test his attitude. But before that, I think we should prepare for the worst. The strangeness of the abyss is beyond the understanding of ordinary people."

"Even a powerful dragon king like Ryota was affected by it and went berserk and attacked Liyue. Although I am willing to trust the Emperor, it is better to be safe."

Ningguang nodded, and then Xiao left the Jade Pavilion again and headed towards the Layered Rock Abyss.

After Xiao left, Ningguang looked at the letter on the table, which said that the Knights of Favonius and the Fatui would arrive in Liyue in a few days.

"Bai Wen, Bai Shi, Bai Xiao, take people to move all the fairy crystals stored in the warehouse to the Qun Yu Pavilion. We may lose this home we have lived in for so long."

Baiwen, Baishi and Baixiao were slightly stunned. They did not expect Ningguang to make such a decision, but it also showed the urgency of the situation.

But Ren Weiwei and Gongsun left Xun Yu Pavilion and arranged for people to move all the crystals to Qun Yu Pavilion. The unusual movement of Qun Yu Pavilion also attracted the attention of several people.

Hu Tao nudged Ganyu next to her and asked Ganyu.

"Sister Ganyu, if I'm not mistaken, those are all immortal crystals. They are one of the materials used to make the Guizhong Machine and are also a way to store energy."

"Although it is very stable, I remember that if it is thrown out and hit strongly, it will cause a huge explosion. With so many crystals placed on the cluster grid, if one day they are accidentally bumped into..."

Before Hu Tao could finish her words, Ganyu interrupted her and hit her on the forehead.

"Really? What are you thinking about all day? Can't you think about something good? Ningguang has her own deep meaning for doing this."

"We just need to watch. Since the invasion of the Abyss, Ningguang has rarely rested. It can be said that she now carries the entire Liyue on her shoulders. If she falls, Liyue will fall into an irreparable situation."

"So if we can't share her worries, then we shouldn't cause her trouble."

Keqin also came to the two of them, looking at the Qun Yu Pavilion in the sky and couldn't help but sigh.

"When I first met Ningguang, she was still a merchant. Sometimes she would wander around the streets, selling her wares. Sometimes she would shine at banquets, as if the banquet was prepared just for her."

"She shone brightly at the banquet, like a phoenix to which all the birds pay homage."

"However, when I described her like this, she smiled and refuted my statement. She said that she was not a phoenix, and he just got the feathers of a phoenix."

"At that time, I didn't understand what he meant by this sentence, but when I saw that man, I understood what he meant. Sometimes I envy you for finding such a good person."

"Alas, I just don't know when the love that belongs to me will come, and this damn abyss invasion happened again."

"Maybe my love will die in this abyss invasion before I can see him. Then you must make me a very pretty paper figure and burn it for me~"

Keqing said with a smile, and Hu Tao agreed readily, saying that he would personally make a paper man for Keqing that would be a hundred times more handsome than Yang Ming.

Of course, the result was that Ganyu hit both of them on the head, with the reason being to shake the morale of the troops.

"Everything is unknown. How can you admit defeat so early? If Ningguang knew, she would definitely behead you in front of the camp."

Keqing and Hu Tao smiled at each other, then pulled Ganyu out of the tent. Ganyu didn't know what they wanted to do, so she could only let them pull her away.

"Layered Abyss"

After going back and forth twice in just one day, Xiao had mixed feelings. He didn't want to face Morax, but Liyue now forced him to do so.

If he doesn't go, the people of Liyue will believe in Morax as before, but Morax is an enemy, not a friend, and will attack them. The emperor's reputation will then suffer a great blow.

Xiao took a deep breath and dived into the Abyss. However, before he entered the Abyss, a huge black rock hand intercepted him, and Morax was standing on that rock hand.

There was no change in his eyes, still as cold and cruel as before. Perhaps it was the thousands of years of self-cultivation that allowed him to remain relaxed even after being demonized by the abyss.

This is also the reason why Morax did not take the initiative to attack Xiao. Even though he has been demonized by the abyss, his body's instinct still makes him dislike fighting.

When Xiao saw this, he understood that the Emperor had not yet been completely demonized by the abyss. At least this subconscious instinctive action would not deceive people.

Xiao came in front of Morax, half-knelt and saluted with both hands.

"Xiao, welcome back the Emperor. A lot of things happened in Liyue when the Emperor was away. The Emperor doesn't need to worry about my changes."

"The invasion of the Abyss has caused panic among the people of all countries. The people of all countries are in fear all day long. Now Liyue has the return of the Emperor. It will be a great boost to the stars and morale."

"Please come back to the camp with me, Emperor, and command our next struggle. Under your leadership, we will surely be able to push the abyss back."

Xiao said a lot of words in one breath, which was equivalent to what he said in a year. After Xiao finished speaking, he carefully observed Morax's expression, but found that there was no change at all.

At this moment, Morax suddenly raised his hand. Xiao was a little confused, but the next moment a rock spike stabbed towards him at an extremely fast speed.

Xiao dodged the stab by jumping to the left. After attacking with Ox, I retracted the action and did not take the next step, but my eyes were full of warning.

This is a warning to Xiao not to come to the Abyss again, otherwise Morax will kill him on the spot next time.

Xiao was also a little surprised. His instinctive action just now misled him. The power of the abyss was still superior. Even Morax could not stop the power of the abyss.

Xiao looked at Morax with pity in his eyes, his eyes full of sadness.

"Emperor, I'm sorry!"

Before Ningguang finds a way, Xiao will be the first line of defense to stop Morax. Even though he knows he will lose, he will do his best to stop Morax from attacking the people of Liyue.

A pitch-black spear appeared in front of Xiao. After sensing its master and the person who forged it, the spear was at a loss for a moment, but in the end it still stood firmly on Xiao's side.

The pitch-black spear in Xiao's hand stabbed out at an extremely fast speed and hit Morax in the face. Morax did not move at all. With the sound of metal clashing, a pitch-black shield appeared around Morax.

Blocking Xiao's attack, Morax waved his hand and several huge rock spears in the sky flew towards Xiao.

He used his speed to maneuver among the rock spears, avoiding them. After dodging all of them, he was suddenly knocked down by a slap, and then smashed heavily into the mountain, causing bursts of thick smoke.

The smoke dissipated, leaving a trace of blood at the corner of Xiao's mouth. Xiao wiped the blood off, then raised his gun and rushed towards Morax.

After one confrontation after another, they were beaten back into the mountain time and time again. The gap in strength seemed like a chasm that seemed unbridgeable.

Xiao did not stop nor did he take a step back. Even though he was knocked down again and again and was slammed into the mountain again and again, he would always stand up and continue to attack Morax.

Xiao was once again slammed into the Layered Rock Abyss Wind Mountain by Morax, but this time Morax did not give him any chance.

It seemed that Xiao was annoying like a fly again and again, which angered Morax. A rock spear appeared in Morax's hand. Without any hesitation, the rock spear cut through the sky like a meteor and stabbed straight towards Xiao.

However, just as the rock spear was about to penetrate Xiao, a breeze blew the rock spear away. Seeing this, Morax ignored Xiao and entered the rock abyss.

Being so close to death once again made Xiao very uncomfortable. This feeling as if his life was not in his own hands, he really hoped not to experience it again.

After determining Morax's camp, Xiao left the Layered Abyss and headed towards Tianheng Mountain.

"Where exactly are you two taking me in all this mystery? We are already so far away from the camp. If we continue down, we will enter Liyue Harbor."
