Genshin Impact: The Road to Reversal

“How dare we…” The congressmen bowed respectfully.

Indeed, guardian credentials cannot be forged. Although the guardians before them were somewhat unsatisfactory, they were also pillars established by the Holy Lord. They maintained their youthful appearance, stationed in the world for millennia and witnessed countless changes. Especially during the Sangyang Rebellion 200 years ago, they unhesitatingly sacrificed almost everything to stabilize the world's veins.

At this moment, Kailin whistled, "Swoosh! See, believe it or not, as long as I have the Guardian Certificate, everything will be solved."

"Oh, you're just smart, okay?" Mo Yan said helplessly with his hands folded.

"So can you tell me what happened during this period of time?" Tianlang asked, extending his right hand.

"Of course." The scarred man nodded.

At this moment, the oldest man among the parliamentarians slowly walked up to the crowd.

"Let me explain. A week ago, the Fallen Angel Brigade infiltrated Linglang and forged identities to infiltrate the Mercenary Association. Under the guise of an investigation mission, they gathered intelligence everywhere and even..." The old man's voice suddenly trembled, "They even took away 'Shagui' in front of Lord Lei Zun..."

"Shagui?" Tianlang's eyes widened in surprise. "Are you saying that they have also found the last Fallen Angel element?"

Dongfang Lei suddenly spoke up, "Indeed, I was leading my troops to suppress the barbarian ambush outside the city, so I didn't make it back in time. By the time I received the news, Lord Lei Zun had already taken action personally, but... he still let that guy named Yi Te escape."

At this time, the scarred man beside him sighed angrily: "Hey, this is also our fault. We believed that guy's lies and let Captain Dongfang lead his troops out of the city..."

"That guy? Is it It?" Zixuan asked.

"No, it was a barbarian spy named Nayuka," said another man wearing monocles. "The day before the incident, the Fallen Angel Brigade, disguised as mercenaries, were out gathering intelligence. It happened to cross paths with Rex, who was on a mission. They were attacked by monsters raised by the barbarians in the forest. To be honest, it was thanks to him that Rex's team was able to escape death from the barbarians. How ironic."

"I guess it was at that time that he established a cooperative relationship with the barbarians." said the astrologer.

Hearing this, Tianlang's eyes widened. "The Barbarians are collaborating with the Fallen Angel Brigade? You're kidding, right? The Barbarians may be simply called barbarians, but their intelligence is far from simple. Add to that the results of the Sanu and Ares tribes..."

The astrologer continued, "At first, we didn't think they would cooperate. After all, we'd learned from previous experiences that no one could trust those guys. But ever since the 'Sha Ghost' appeared, Nayuka, who was imprisoned, was rescued. Meanwhile, Ling Lu's defense map has disappeared. Furthermore, the number of monsters spotted in the surrounding forests has increased daily. They no longer wear collars, and their size has increased significantly, clearly artificially modified."

"No wonder..." Tianlang lowered his head in thought, "I was wondering why there are so many mutants and skeleton beasts along the way, and even the outer fortresses have begun large-scale changes."

"Oh, there's nothing we can do. After all, no one knows what those lunatics will do next. Now the entire Linglang has entered a wartime state. No wonder Lord Lei Zun is so worried." The old man sighed angrily.

Tianlang was silent for a moment before continuing, "What about Thunder Lord? Even though the Fallen Angel Brigade has gathered the four Fallen Angel elements, with her strength, I don't think anyone can escape from her."

Having mastered the elemental power for millennia, there was no reason why they would be defeated by the fledgling Fallen Angel Brigade, who had only mastered it for less than a year. Furthermore, the might of thunder was unpredictable, and the folklore had long held that when thunder strikes, all things are destroyed, and when thunder strikes, a pure land is created. Tianlang couldn't fathom how Yite and his companions had managed to escape from the very eyes of the Thunder Lord.

At this moment, the old man trembled as he took out a memory crystal. "Regarding this, we used elements to extract the 'memories' of that time."

Elements come from nature, so those who are adept at using them can easily extract memories from them through contracts, just like a recorded image.

Tianlang took the crystal and gently tapped into his elemental power. Instantly, a series of moving images were projected onto the walls of the conference room.

In the scene, dark clouds loomed over the abandoned village. Li Xueyan rode atop a thundering horse, her "Red Thunder" striking down like a divine retribution, purifying all the undead knights. Just as she was about to purify Xiao An's spirit, a mysterious figure in a black robe suddenly appeared, tearing through space.

Li Xueyan's red lightning collided violently with the black shadow. Unexpectedly, the black shadow extended countless thorn-like tentacles, swallowing up all the lightning.

The picture finally freezes on the mysterious man in the cloak, who is holding the unconscious Xiao An in his arms, and the surrounding space is distorted like a broken mirror.

Seeing this, Kailin, Mo Yan and others were shocked.

"Who is this person? He actually absorbed all of Lei Zun's power." Kailin said in panic.

"The Demon Lord... is the true leader of the Fallen Angel Brigade." The old man replied.

"You said he is..." Mo Yan's pupils suddenly shrank.

Previously, in Akagi, at the tavern run by the Fallen Angel Brigade, he and Kailin had heard some information about the Demon Lord from Fengling. He remembered her saying this...

"The Holy One is weak and too merciful. He is unworthy of being a god, so I will take his place."

I didn't expect him to take action personally. But since he possessed such strength, why did he use Yi Te and the others to achieve his ambitions? With his strength, wouldn't it be easy for him to just take the credentials directly?

Mo Yan was puzzled. When he looked at the black robe on the screen again, he couldn't help but tremble with fear. But when he looked carefully, he found that the figure and back of the cloaked man were inexplicably familiar.

"Strange, why do I have this feeling? Have I seen him somewhere before?"

With doubts, Mo Yan continued to remain silent.

At this time, Tianlang looked at the screen and spoke again: "I see. I didn't expect the host behind the scenes to actually do it himself. No wonder Xueyan made a mistake."

"So, learning from the past, it's no wonder that the people in the city would be wary when they see us travelers from outside." Zhao Heng put down his hands, his tone revealing helplessness.

"But since you are the messengers of Lord Yuesheng, I think you don't have to worry about these things." The old man bowed respectfully.

This made Kailin feel a little uncomfortable.

"Messenger?... I should say it or not, I should be used to this title..." She smiled awkwardly.

"What? Aren't you all here to escort Lord Moon Saint as an envoy?" asked the astrologer.

"Of course not." Tianlang smiled, "They are my friends, and they are also the benefactors who helped me solve the aphrodisiac crisis in Xuanyue Town."

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience was shocked.
