It's hard to imagine how much miHoYo will earn once this outfit is released, given its immense popularity.

Teyvat, Mondstadt.

Many people attended Nora's funeral, but Diluc was the only one who did not attend.

After Jora's death, Noelle kept herself locked up at home.

Gradually, she seemed to understand what the troupe leader meant when she said that she and Ruola had always lacked something. She hadn't been able to see it or realize it before, but on the night her best friend passed away, she finally understood.

Paimon held a chrysanthemum in each of his two little hands.

When she was with Nora, she said that she really liked windmill daisies because they only grow in windy places, and windy places are the people of Mondstadt's favorite places.

Even now, Paimon hasn't recovered. Every time she thinks of Ruola, she secretly hides away and cries, then appears in front of Ying with red eyes after she's finished crying.

After the funeral, Ying and Paimon left Mondstadt.

After leaving the church that night, Mu Qingge returned to Liyue the next day.

"Traveler, if Paimon ever sees that wretched fellow again, he'll bite him to death, even if it means using his mouth!"

Ying forced a smile. If she saw that guy again, she wouldn't let him get away with it either!

"You two, would you be interested in having a chat with me?"

"Dain?"

Ying looked at Dayne without saying a word.

"I'm sorry, I was fighting the Abyss at the time and couldn't get away."

"You mean, the abyss?"

Now, Ying has a stress response whenever she hears those two words: Abyss, they killed Nora!

She murdered her best friend!

"I have one last question for you: Is the Abyss really related to emptiness?"

This time it was Dain's turn to be silent. After more than ten seconds, Dain finally spoke:

"Kong, he is now the prince of the abyss."

Ying clenched her fist with her hand resting on her thigh.

"While you were fighting that guy, I found Sora and asked him about him, but unfortunately, Sora didn't give me a straight answer."

"After that, I used special methods to find that guy's trail and set up an ambush near the stone gate. Unfortunately, that guy escaped. Its ability is indeed very strange, no wonder it was able to escape the wind god's perception."

"I'm just telling you what I know. As for whether that guy is related to Kong, that remains to be verified."

Ying looked at Dain seriously:

"I need to see Kong, do you have a way?"

"I don't know his current location, but his Abyss Apostles are most likely in the ruins where you saw the reversed statue earlier."

"Okay, let's go now!"

Judging from Ying's behavior, Dain knew what she was thinking. Sora was blinded by hatred, and perhaps his sister was the last person who could help him.

Chapter 53 We Will Eventually Meet Again? Take This First!

Within the ruins.

Before the defiled, reversed statue, Ying, Paimon, and Dayne had already arrived.

"Looks like we're here."

"A strange, withered...unpleasant room. I understand what you mean by a terrible atmosphere."

The precious orb in the suspended statue's hand is now gone; the power of the abyss has been greatly reduced, but...

That unsettling feeling still lingers.

Ying drew her longsword and was about to slash at the statue.

They had already discussed it on the way here; this statue must be destroyed!

Just as the longsword was about to strike the statue, the Abyss Apostle suddenly appeared and blocked Ying's attack.

"It's you again, and you too, enemy of the Order, Daines Reeb!"

"I can smell a terrible stench of blood on you. Is it from a dark nightmare, or... hmm?"

The Abyss Apostle seemed to have sensed something, and after carefully confirming, said again:

"Oh...that's dangerous. You have that 'rotten' smell about you too, it's familiar to me..."

"You are dangerous, just like us. But dangerous things outside the [Order] should be kept in cages..."

Dain's face was cold:

"Tsk."

"Your tongue has probably been rotting for far too long..."

"It's time to cut it!"

······

The world of players.

After the "Burning Fireworks" quest, players are now faced with the next part of the "We Will Eventually Reunite" quest.

Through their previous conversations with Dain, players know more or less that the other twin has an inexplicable connection with the Abyss.

It's even quite possible that the attack on Mondstadt by the Abyss was orchestrated by the Anti-Lord, and thus he returned to the original ruins with resentment.

"Damn it, that guy from the Abyss, kill him!"

We absolutely cannot let him escape this time!

I don't think it's likely to be contrary to the main plot. Think about it, since both twins are main characters, it's impossible for the other one to be so annoying, right?

[Did you guys notice? This Abyss Apostle emphasizes the Order, while that bastard emphasizes the Abyss.]

[What's the rush? The plot clearly shows the twins will meet soon, then everything will be clear.]

······

The Abyss Apostle is strong, but still no match for Luminous.

After a fierce battle, the Abyss Apostle, realizing he was no match for the enemy, opened a portal and prepared to leave.

But he still failed this time.

Din seized the opportunity and took control of his fate.

No matter how hard the Abyss Apostles struggled, it was to no avail; they simply could not break free.

At the critical moment, Kong slashed at Dain with his sword, and the huge impact knocked Dain back.

Ying's pupils trembled as she stared incredulously at everything before her.

She had been looking forward to meeting the two of them for a long time, but now that they had finally met, she felt a mix of emotions.

"Your Highness!"

The Abyss Apostle knelt on one knee and bowed to the sky.

Paimon glanced at the sky, then at Ying, repeating this several times, before exclaiming in surprise:

"Then, that person, could it be...?!"

"null!"

Kong looked at Ying with complicated emotions: "Little sister..."

Ying slowly walked towards Kong, who just watched. Five hundred years had passed; he had been separated from his sister for five hundred years…

Seeing Ying approaching, Kong also took two steps forward.

But at that moment, Ying suddenly drew her longsword again and attacked the air directly.

Kong hadn't anticipated this turn of events, and while defending, he quickly retreated:

"Ying, what are you doing!?"

Ying remained silent, but her attacks grew increasingly powerful.

She certainly didn't want to kill Sora; after all, they were siblings, and she and Sora had a deep bond!

But with her best friend dying right in front of her, she couldn't just do nothing!

Paimon was stunned by what he saw. Wasn't Ying always looking for her brother?

But why did the two start fighting now that they've been found?

"Dain, what do we do now? You have to think of something!"

"Dain? What exactly did you say to my sister?"

Sora also began questioning Dain, then looked at Ying:

"Ying, we can talk things out slowly. Don't believe Dain's lies!"

Sora had already traveled through the seven countries, and his strength was naturally incomparable to that of Hikari, but how could Sora possibly hurt his own sister?

Not only could he not hurt Ying, but he also had to prevent Ying from hurting herself by using too much force, so the fight was extremely awkward.

Why did you kill Nora?!

After a long while, Ying finally spoke.

"Who?!"

Kong was taken aback at first, then suddenly remembered the trouble that guy had caused in Mondstadt, and guessed that Rola might have died in that trouble.

He immediately explained:

"It wasn't me! That guy has absolutely no connection to the Abyss Order!"

Taking advantage of Ying's momentary daze, Kong grabbed Ying's hand and forcibly ended this absurd battle.

Ying stopped attacking and stared intently at Kong.

Seeing that Ying had calmed down, Kong released his grip, stepped back, and glared angrily at Dain:

"My patience with you has its limits!"

“I just told her what she should know.”

"Humph!"

Take a deep breath:

“Ying, I don’t know what Dain told you, but as your brother, I assure you that that guy really has nothing to do with me. He comes from the Abyss, the real Abyss.”

"I'm looking for him too; he's our enemy as well!"

Ying looked into her brother's eyes for a long time before gently nodding, acknowledging Kong's explanation.

"Ying, I don't know why you're with Dain, but I'm giving you a piece of advice: don't trust him, he's my enemy!"

“Empty.” Dain’s expression was complicated.

"Ying, don't stop me, don't stop the [Abyss]...Cult."

Kong pointed at Dain: "That man... Dain's Reeb. He was the 'Sword of the End' of the last palace guard of Kanria. Five hundred years ago, he failed to prevent the destruction of Kanria."

"At that time, he was deeply cursed with immortality and wandered the wilderness... He could only watch as the people he wanted to protect turned into monsters in the abyss."

Meanwhile, in the live stream room.

[I knew it! Although they both belong to the Abyss,... the Twins shouldn't be villains, uh... not pure villains!]

Are the monsters of the abyss all remnants of Kanria?

[It's the Abyss Order, you bastards! The real monster of the Abyss is that scum!]

Thank goodness, thank goodness. Otherwise, if even her closest brother were an enemy, I can't imagine how heartbroken Yingbao would be.
