Genshin Impact: The Road to Reversal

A black-haired man walked towards the crowd.

He wore a black suit, meticulously tailored, its lines flowing and sharp, as if condensed from the night. The rugged gray wolf lapel chain on his right chest was uniquely shaped, its body delicately textured, resembling the delicate carving of gray wolf fur, or the engraving of ancient runes, each link emitting a cool metallic luster.

The leather belts on both sides of the shoulders are thick and tough, fixed in a rigorous manner. The belt buckles are simple but textured metal products, adding toughness and layering to the overall shape.

The gray trousers were tightly-woven, with barely perceptible dark patterns, like the lines of a sealed, mysterious power. The black high boots had towering shafts, the leather on the uppers had been specially treated, giving them a subtle sheen. The stitching along the hems was fine and neat, like a solid line of defense against all danger.

However, what impressed everyone the most were the faintly visible tattoos on his chest and neck, coupled with his seemingly unreasonable and nonsensical hairstyle. Everyone's first reaction was to think that he was a gangster from somewhere.

"It's you, Leosli!" Mo Yan subconsciously called out a name that was unfamiliar to everyone.

"Leosley? Who is that?" the man asked doubtfully.

At this time, Tianlang turned and introduced everyone, "Everyone, let me introduce you. This is the Shadow Overlord who guarded the Abyss that I often mentioned to you, Rednos."

"Is he the Shadow King you always talk about, who is as famous as the Ice Emperor?" Kailin was suddenly shocked.

The man nodded and folded his arms, saying, "Yes, it seems that this boy Tianlang told you a lot about me."

"So what are you doing here?" Yaohui asked very dissatisfiedly.

"Is that even a question? Of course, the losers will be sent to the 'Abyss' according to the usual procedure," Rednos said. He then walked over to Yaohui and looked him over carefully. "But who would have thought I'd just arrived here and hear someone spouting such outrageous words? Why is he still so angry after not seeing him for so long?"

"Hmph, what I do is my own business, none of your business." Yaohui glanced angrily.

"Oh, is that so?" Rednos folded his arms in a feigned gesture. "But from the very beginning, it seems like you've never been kind to me. Actually, I know that the reason you're like this is because of Linglong's incident back then. Isn't that why you have a prejudice against me?"

Hearing this, Yaohui suddenly felt furious. He put down his hands and clenched his fists.

Rednos continued, "It's been thousands of years since this happened. Haven't you been able to let it go?"

"shut up!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Yaohui swung his fist and punched Rednos in the face.

In a flash, Rednos raised his hand slightly and easily blocked the unexpected attack.

"What? Are you so impatient?" Rednos shook his head and said, "You're really the same as always. Although I said that I am Rex's shadow, it doesn't mean that I will inherit the feud between you and him. Before that, please don't make the wrong choice."

He pushed hard with one hand, and Yaohui was directly knocked back.

"Just shut up!"

Obviously, Yaohui did not listen to Rednos' earnest advice. He just steadied his steps and punched Rednos again, this time even using the power of the evil contract.

Looking at Yaohui's attitude at the moment, Rednos shook his head again, and had no choice but to let go of his fists and feet.

Facing Yaohui's fierce attack, Rednos's eyes glared. His body moved like lightning, his feet nimbly dodging to the left. Yaohui's fist brushed past him. Then, he extended his right hand, precisely grasped Yaohui's wrist, and twisted it hard.

bah—

"cough!"

Yaohui was thrown heavily onto the hard rocky ground by Rednos over his shoulder. At that moment, he lay on the ground, unable to get up.

"Yaohui!" Zixuan said in surprise and anxiously.

Kailin standing by looked confused and just stood there in a daze.

"What happened? Why did they suddenly start fighting?"

Rednos sighed, then said in a slightly angry tone, "I remember saying a long time ago that while I sympathize with your past experiences, that doesn't mean I approve of your current behavior. I deeply regret what happened to Linglong, but that was Tulu's doing. Before you take action, please don't make the wrong choice!"

Seeing the tense atmosphere between the two, no one dared to interrupt. At this moment, Tianlang walked slowly to Rednos' side.

"Hey Rednos, didn't you say before that you had something to do? I think you should finish what you need to do as soon as possible." He advised with an awkward smile.

Rednos nodded and said, "Yeah, that's true. It's really a waste of time and energy to stay here any longer."

After saying that, he turned his head and looked at Yaohui who was slowly getting up behind him.

Looking at the scene in front of them, Mo Yan and others remained silent, only Kailin was muttering to herself.

"This guy named Rednos doesn't seem to be easy to get along with."

"Well, I heard Tianlang say before that the guards are just colleagues, so they have always been at odds. It seems that this is true." Zhao Heng nodded and said in a low voice.

At this time, Kailin said again: "Oh right, I heard Tianlang and the others say that Shadow Tyrant and Ice Emperor are the only ones who can freely see the Holy Lord, right? Since he is here now, can we also?"

"Well, we can try it." Mo Yan nodded.

As she spoke, Karin straightened her clothes and then walked towards Rednos.

"That Lord Rednos."

"Hmm?" Rednos looked at Kailin.

"Um...you don't mind me calling you that, do you?" Karen asked timidly.

"It's okay, no need to be so formal." Rednos folded his arms, then looked at Tianlang again and asked, "Come to think of it, I didn't pay much attention just now. Are these the new friends you made recently?"

"Yes, they helped us a lot before. Let me introduce them to you one by one." Tianlang smiled, but his enthusiasm was interrupted by Rednos the next second.

"No need. I heard from His Majesty that several guests from outside the world came to Teyvat. I think they were talking about you." He said with his arms folded.

"Ah?" Kailin was stunned.

"So, the Holy Lord has known about us for a long time?" Zi Xuan walked forward and asked.

Rednos nodded and said, "Of course, whether it's Xuanyue, Black Territory, or Red City, the Saint Venerable already knows about your deeds."

"So, your Holy Lord already knows our situation?" Karen exclaimed.

"Of course, you are from another world, and were dragged here by an accident. The reason you embarked on this journey is to protect us and find a way back home."

Hearing this, Kailin was instantly overjoyed.

"In that case, could you please ask the Holy Lord..."

"Sorry, no."
