Genshin Impact: The Road to Reversal

"This is it."

Li Xueqi looked at the cave in front of her, smiled lightly, and walked in without thinking too much.

When she stepped into the cave, it was pitch black, but because of the habits of bats, she could more or less see the road ahead.

The lights were on and she walked into a man-made tunnel.

As soon as she entered the tunnel, she stopped and looked ahead, Li Xueqi smiled softly.

She was walking slowly in the middle of the room when a voice came from the sky and a man holding an axe came at her head.

When she heard the sound, she did not avoid it immediately, but gently waved her fingers and cut the other person's carotid artery out of thin air.

Blood gushed out, like a stream against the sky, gathering into a ball. In a moment, the man turned into a dried corpse.

Li Xueqi continued to walk forward, and with every step she took, a person who was lurking in the dark, waiting for an opportunity, would be drained dry, pierced through the heart, and exploded to death. They fell to the ground without even being able to see each other's faces.

"With just this little bit of strength, you dare to go against me?"

She trampled on the corpses as if she were looking down at ants until the round iron gate appeared in front of her.

She stood in front of the door, looked around, as if she understood everything and smiled.

"I see. A trap?"

"But since I'm here..." She looked towards the door, chuckled again, and walked in without thinking too much.

As soon as I stepped into the gate, the iron gate slammed shut quickly.

Li Xueqi just looked back and then continued walking forward with a smile.

After walking through the tunnel, there is a huge circular room in front of you, surrounded by spectator stands. It looks like an underground arena.

They actually lured me here, it seems they put in a lot of effort.

As she was sighing, suddenly, many people armed with knives and guns rushed out and surrounded her.

They were wearing light armor, so it wasn't that they didn't take any precautions, but it was certainly the same as not taking any.

"It seems that this is the end." Li Xueqi looked around and smiled.

At this time, an old man with a full beard walked out from the audience seats on the stage with a smile.

"Haha, you are worthy of being the Guardian of Blood. You can actually find this place." He said with a smile.

"Hmph, come on! You're the one who deliberately exposed your whereabouts and lured me here, weren't you?" Li Xueqi said, looking around. "It seems like these are all the people you have."

"Of course, this is all thanks to you. If you hadn't ordered the massacre of us, how could I have made such a risky decision?"

"Really? Then I'd like to hear how you, who planted bombs and carried out terrorist attacks in Akagi, can have the audacity to say such things." Li Xueqi said with her arms folded.

"Shameless? I think you're mistaken. We're doing this simply to take back the territory that belongs to us." The old man said with his chest open. "Aixio was originally a territory given to us by God out of mercy, but you, the despicable Saint, forcibly seized it and drove us out of our homeland. I'm doing this simply to take back what belongs to us!"

"Your stuff? Ridiculous! When Li Xuecheng was ambushed, you took advantage of our weakness to invade our territory, yet now you're acting as if you were the victims." Li Xueqi snorted coldly, "Oh, yes, I almost forgot. You Sanu are such a greedy, despicable, selfish, and extreme race. King Aixiou took you in out of kindness when he saw you were homeless, but what about you? After feasting and drinking, you actually tried to take over our homeland. You Sanu are the shameless, despicable invaders!"

"You! You are not allowed to mention that name! For us Satais, it is a label of shame! And we have real evidence regarding the ownership of Aixiou!" the old man roared.

"Real evidence? Are you talking about that broken scripture fabricated by you Sanu people, which is not even a history book? How naive! I'm afraid you are the only ones who believe it. You say that you are God's chosen people and the entire Teyvat is your territory? I'm tired of hearing such excuses." Li Xueqi folded her hands and said to the old man angrily.

"Tsk, you despicable fool! Even now you still refuse to admit that we are the masters of the world. But it doesn't matter. Soon, the filthy name of Akagi will no longer exist, and it will be us who will replace it. That's right, from today on, we, the Satai people, will return to this land and become the true masters here!"

"You're dreaming! Do you think you can defeat me with just your men?" Li Xueqi sneered, looking at the enemies around her. "I'm not underestimating you, but can these puny soldiers and generals do it? Or are there other traps waiting for me?"

"Smart, it seems you already knew this was a trap. Yes, I have set up various traps and mechanisms here, including some artifacts contributed by the doctor from the Fallen Angel Troupe. It makes me angry when I talk about them. At that time, those guys clearly promised us to capture Aixiou for us, but then, not only did they lose to you, they also put us in such a dangerous situation." The old man said angrily.

"But the weapons he gave us are really useful. Take that white phosphorus bomb, for example. Wow, that thing is incredible." He pulled a remote control from his waist and continued, "You've seen it before, right? We put it in your flour warehouse, and then just press it... Boom! It explodes! What a beautiful sight! It's a pity I can't experience it in person."

Seeing the old man enjoying himself, Li Xueqi clenched her fists. She even wanted to rush up and tear off his neck, but after thinking about it, she decided not to do it because that would be too easy for him.

"Hmph, thankfully I didn't place my hopes on them. During the initial stages of our collaboration, that fake Eric helped us disguise ourselves and send white phosphorus bombs into the city, while I ordered my men to secretly bury them throughout Akagi while we were at it. Even if the plan failed, I could always blow the entire city up!"

"So that's how it is. No wonder. But what makes me curious is, after you and the Fallen Angel Brigade failed, how did you convince your own people to be willing to be abandoned in your plan? As far as I know, you Sanu people are not the kind of race that is willing to sacrifice for your plan or even your colleagues for the sake of the overall situation." Li Xueqi asked again.

"You're right. They're indeed unwilling to commit to the plan. But I have plenty of ways. I'll use various excuses to disperse them, then assign them tasks to bring the cowhide bags containing white phosphorus bombs into the city. Then I'll create chance encounters. Even if they discover I've tricked them, it'll be too late. Given your attitude towards us, you won't let any Satai who enter your sight leave alive. So by the time you discover and thoroughly strangle them, the bags containing white phosphorus bombs will have already landed in the city."

While the old man was talking about his plan, he was also moved and admired by himself for his own intelligence and talent.

This whole scene was seen from beginning to end by Mo Yan and Kailin who had just arrived.
