Chapter 587 "We Are Getting Married" (Part )
"Demon's breath? Could it be..."
Chang Ming frowned, and an expression of incomprehension appeared on his face.
"The border of the world is broken? Or...the defeated demon gods in the Dark Sea broke the border?"
Hearing Chang Ming's question, Wendy sighed softly and then shook her head.
"I don't know the specific situation, but there are indeed a lot of dirty and mixed demon auras there, which are no different from the demons that were driven out to the Dark Sea."
"Of course, it is also possible that the Abyss Cult or the Fatui are collecting the remains of the demons and planning to carry out some secret plan. I can't say for sure."
Wendy shrugged helplessly, looking helpless.
If he had the Heart of God...he could completely collect all the information about Inazuma, and then give it to Chang Ming to analyze bit by bit.
But there are not so many ifs in this world, so this statement naturally does not exist.
The main reason why he can still control the wind element and bestow some blessings through words is because of his race.
He is a wind elf. As an elemental creature, he can naturally harness elemental forces. The loss of the Heart of God will not deprive him of the talents that come with his race.
Although it is not as convenient as before, it is still sufficient.
Looking at Wendy in front of him, Chang Ming pursed his lips helplessly, and then looked for help at the retired old man who was calmly drinking tea beside him.
Zhongli took a sip of tea, then slowly closed his eyes and said softly:
"From a universal point of view, a demon god born under the rules of Teyvat cannot survive for too long in the Dark Sea."
"If you count carefully... the lives of most of the demons living in the Dark Sea have come to an end. Even those few demons who have survived by chance... are now at the end of their strength and are no longer as powerful as they used to be."
Having said that, Zhongli paused for a moment, then looked Chang Ming up and down and smiled gently.
"With your current abilities, plus the force of Inazuma's Thunder God, I'm afraid it won't take too long to solve the problem."
"What's more... you are now a "divine messenger" who has inherited part of the power of the "Reign of Death". In a sense, ordinary demons are no longer your opponents. You don't have to worry about this."
Zhongli took a sip of tea calmly. He did not show the slightest worry from beginning to end, as if everything was under his control.
As the victor of the war against demons, and as the "God of War" Morax who once swept across the world, he is the one who has the most say in fighting against demons.
After hearing Zhongli's words, Chang Ming's originally anxious heart was relieved a little, but soon, Zhongli's next sentence made him nervous again.
"But the point of this matter is not the sudden appearance of those demons, but how these demons appeared in Inazuma."
"Whether it was a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, no one can be sure about this matter now. We can only know the answer when the person involved tells us in person."
"If it's a man-made disaster, it's fine, but if it's a natural disaster..."
Zhongli's expression became a little serious, as if he was thinking about something.
"...Then I can only rely on your strength, Chang Ming."
"Mr. Zhongli means... the power of Sky Island?"
"Well, the laws of the Demon War were completely created by Sky Island. If the boundary between the Dark Sea and Teyvat is broken, only you, who controls the power of the light world, can repair it."
"By then...it will be another concept."
After saying that, Zhongli slowly put down the teacup in his hand and looked out the window, as if he was thinking about something.
"Perhaps... this is the true beginning..."
Looking at Zhongli's meaningful expression, Chang Ming and Wendy subconsciously glanced at each other, and then shook their heads at the same time.
Obviously, they didn't quite understand what Zhongli meant.
Just when Chang Ming was about to ask what was going on... a girl with long purple hair, an eye patch on her face, and dressed in special patrol uniform rushed into their private room.
"Master Chang Ming, Miss Navia of the Thorn Rose Society asked me to bring you a message - the envoys from Inazuma will be arriving soon!"
Hearing this, Chang Ming blinked slightly, then exchanged glances with the two people in front of him, and then they all stood up at the same time and prepared to go to Baisong Town.
"Thank you for your hard work, Xia Wulei, but I would like to trouble you to find someone to call Ms. Funina. This diplomatic meeting... requires her presence."
Chang Ming's words made Xia Wole slightly stunned, and then she nodded slightly.
"Before I came here, I had already asked my team to inform Ms. Funina - this was Miss Clorinde's order."
"Is that so... Then you can come along too. If there aren't any serious cases happening recently, I'll have to trouble your special patrol team to ensure the safety of Envoy Inazuma."
"After all, the holidays are coming soon, and we really don't have enough manpower to spare."
"Yes!"
......
The distance between Fontaine and Baisong Town is not very far, and it can be reached in about five minutes even without using elemental power.
Soon, many important figures from Fontaine gathered at the dock of Baisong Town.
It can be said that, except for Navilette who was busy handling the work of the Inquisition and Leosli who was busy investigating the sudden appearance of the abyss creatures, the political core of Fontaine was basically present.
Of course, Chang Ming and Funina didn’t have to come at all, because Navia is now one of Fontaine’s external spokespersons, and her presence to welcome them would be enough.
But in order to be able to tease Yae Shinto first and see the expression of surprise on that face first, Chang Ming still came.
Of course, this is only one aspect. The other aspect is the conversation between the two gods Feng Yan and Chang Ming just now.
The matter of Inazuma...must be taken seriously.
If it is really as the old man inferred...looking at the entire continent of Teyvat, only Chang Ming can solve this problem.
There are many people who can control the power of the abyss, but the only one who can control the power of the light world is Chang Ming.
Thinking of this, Chang Ming's expression became a little serious, but when he saw the ship slowly docking at the pier, a signature smile immediately appeared on his face, and then he gently squeezed Funina's little hand.
"What's wrong?"
Furninna asked quietly.
"Nothing, I just want you to cooperate with me for a while."
"Eh?"
Funina tilted her head, seemingly not understanding.
"Oh my, I'm really flattered by such a grand welcome. It's just a festival visit, is it really necessary to make it so grand?"
Before she could ask what she had to cooperate with, Yae Shinko walked down from the deck with a light smile, and her eyes stayed on Chang Ming, as if she was... teasing?
"Master Palace Administrator, you are joking. Fontaine values etiquette, and Inazuma has always been on good terms with Fontaine. Welcoming a friend should always be done in a grand manner, and we must not lose manners."
As Chang Ming spoke, he reached out and held Funina's soft little hand, and even shook his arm deliberately so that the Eightfold God Son would notice his little movement.
As the follower of the devil god, Yaye Shenzi saw Chang Ming's little movement at a glance, and his eyes suddenly widened, as if he saw something unbelievable.
"Palace Master...?"
Kamisato Ayaka looked at her with some confusion, as if she didn't understand why her expression became so... weird.
Linghua's voice instantly brought Yae Shinko back from his shock, and he then returned to his previous teasing state.
But...her eyes kept moving towards Chang Ming and Funina's tightly clasped hands, and for a moment she didn't know where to start.
Looking at the performance of the Eightfold Son of God, Chang Ming's mouth corners slightly raised, but he did not show it too much, but asked softly as if nothing had happened:
"Since you two have arrived, please move to Momang Palace and let's talk a little bit... about the future trade issues between the two countries, how about that?"
