Genshin Impact: The Road to Reversal

Chapter 23 Purple Eyes Under the Moon

"Okay, we're here." Hei Yao stopped and looked at the older shop next to him. "Compared to other hotels, this place is relatively safer."

Tianlang smiled and said, "That's fine. The guest should follow the host's wishes. You can make the arrangements."

The two walked into the store, and suddenly, Zhao Heng seemed to notice something and looked around quickly.

"What's wrong with you?" Mo Yan asked.

"Nothing, maybe it's an illusion." Zhao Heng looked towards a corner beside the street. He saw only a few figures sneaking around and poking their heads out from time to time. This was the City of Evil, so he couldn't draw any conclusions.

"No matter what, just be careful."

"Let's go, let's go in too." He turned to look at Mo Yan, then walked into the store.

Late at night, Zhao Heng, Mo Yan and Tian Lang were discussing in the room how to find the evil spirit.

In the next room, Kailin and Zixuan had already fallen asleep.

Kailin slept soundly, occasionally talking in her sleep. In contrast, Zixuan beside her slept much more quietly.

Although the environment here is simple, it makes people feel comfortable, unlike the Moon Saint Palace, which is gorgeous but always makes people feel out of place.

squeak~

Suddenly, the window was opened and a hand groped in from outside. The thief wearing a hat climbed over the window and landed gently on the ground, then pulled his accomplice in from outside the window.

The two of them hushed each other and began to rummage through the drawers and cabinets in the house, but they searched for a long time and found nothing.

"Hey, are you sure this is the room?"

The two thieves gathered together and talked in a low voice.

"That's right. I observed them for a long time this afternoon, and they are definitely the ones I can't be wrong about."

"But I searched for a long time and found nothing."

"Tsk, that's not right. These people should have brought a lot of wealth with them." The hatted thief lowered his head and thought, "Could it be that the money of these two women is in the hands of the other two men?"

At this moment, the sleeping Karen suddenly turned over, and it was this action that immediately attracted the attention of another thief to the ring on her hand.

"Hey, look at this ring. It's a bit special. It seems to be worth a lot of money, right?"

The two squatted beside the bed and looked at the ring on Kailin's right hand.

The thief in the hat nodded and whispered, "Indeed, it looks like it's worth a lot of money. Anyway, I can't find anything else of value, so it's nice to have a piece of jewelry like this."

Adhering to the principle that a thief never leaves empty-handed, another thief quietly touched the ring. He turned it gently until his heartbeat accelerated, and slowly the ring was taken off.

"Good!"

"who are you!"

After taking off the ring, the thief became excited in a low voice, and at this moment, Zixuan woke up.

The two were startled and turned around suddenly. At this moment, she had picked up her staff and became alert.

"Oh no! Why is this girl awake at this time?" the thief said in panic.

"Hmm... so noisy, Xuanxuan, what's wrong..." Kailin rubbed her eyes and slowly sat up from the bed. When she opened her eyes and saw the two thieves in front of her, the world seemed so bright, "Huh?"

"You rascal!" she shouted, and her voice was carried to the next room.

In panic, Karen subconsciously made a move to pull out her gun, and it was at this moment that she noticed that her gun ring was in the hands of the thief.

"My ring! Great, so you two are thieves!"

"Boss, what should we do if we are discovered?" The thief wearing a mask looked at another thief wearing a hat and asked.

"Run, idiot!"

The thief turned around and tried to escape by jumping out of the window, but Zixuan simply closed the window with her backhand and took a stance with her staff in hand.

"Want to run?"

"Tsk, what a trouble, you asked for it!" The hatted thief gritted his teeth, took out a folding knife from behind him, and stabbed at Zixuan quickly. Zixuan did not hesitate, she raised her staff and started fighting with the gangster.

The other thief was also not idle. With his retreat blocked, he also drew his knife and swung at Kailin.

Because her ring was stolen, Karin lost her weapon and had to dodge. However, the room was small, and after rummaging through the drawers, there was little place to stand, so her pajamas were accidentally torn while dodging.

"Oh, really!"

Karen was very angry. She turned around and kicked the knife out of the gangster's hand when he was not paying attention. Unfortunately, the incident happened so suddenly that she didn't have time to put on her shoes. Otherwise, the heel of her shoe would have broken his hand with the attack power in the game.

"Tsk, the little girl is quite capable."

The gangster shook his hands, but he still rushed forward again. This time he attacked from the lower three directions. Karen quickly defended herself out of her gender instinct, but she was fooled and knocked to the ground by the gangster's feint attack.

"what!"

"Karin!" Zixuan said anxiously.

"Take care of yourself first!"

The hatted gangster found the right opportunity and stabbed Zixuan with a knife. Zixuan was caught off guard and was hit in the side of her waist by an elbow while dodging. She was pushed to the side and fell to the ground.

"Xuanxuan, how are you?" Kailin asked anxiously.

Zixuan endured the pain and shouted, "It's okay, hurry up, we can't let them get away!"

Karen looked at the two gangsters again. They had already walked to the window. Because of the pain, she staggered and couldn't stand up for a short time.

Just as the thief was about to escape, the window paper broke, and a fierce light flashed by. The gangster who tried to open the window was knocked back into the house by a punch.

"Brother! Who is this damn person?" Another bandit looked toward the window angrily.

At this time, a white-haired young man slowly stood up under the moonlight. He was wearing a black hooded shirt, and his purple eyes flashed fiercely under the moonlight, like a beast in the night. Just looking at him made people tense and shudder.

The boy looked at the bandit without saying a word. But the bandit looked at the boy with a chill down his spine, and even felt a little unsteady on his feet.

"Tsk, he's just a young boy, who are you trying to scare?" The thief mustered up his courage, picked up the knife on the ground and swung it away.

"Be careful!" Zixuan reminded.

But the boy did not move. Seeing the knife approaching quickly, he grabbed the thief's knife-holding arm with his backhand. He did not use any force at all, and the opponent's knife quickly fell off.

"What...Puff!" The thief looked incredulous, but before he could finish his words, he was knocked to the ground by a punch from the young man.

At this moment, Kailin and Zixuan were completely stunned. The evening breeze blew from outside. Just when the two came to their senses and wanted to express their gratitude to him, the boy had already disappeared without a trace.

"The guy just now...his style is a bit like those in martial arts novels. Are there any knights like the Jianghu here?" Kailin asked.

Zixuan shook her head and said, "I don't know, but let's tie these two guys up first." As she said that, she took out a prop rope from her backpack.

"That's true." Kailin nodded, then looked at the two thieves who were knocked to the ground.

Just as the two men picked up the rope and prepared to start tying them up, the door of the room was suddenly kicked open.

"Kaylin, Zixuan, are you okay?"

Mo Yan, Zhao Heng, and Tian Lang rushed into the room anxiously. What they saw was not the mess on the floor, nor the subdued bandits. Instead, they saw a scene of spring.

When they saw the two men wearing pajamas and their bodies were damaged after a fierce battle, Zhao Heng and Tianlang quietly left the room, while Mo Yan stayed where he was and gave a thumbs up.

"Wow~"

At this moment, Kailin clenched her fists.

"This is the girls' dormitory, boys are not allowed to enter!" she said angrily, and forcibly kicked Mo Yan out of the room.
