Genshin Impact: The Vision of Gods Shines Again

After saying that, Abelardo turned around and was about to leave the castle tower.

Aberdo knew that he was no longer alone.

—Klee...she should be alright now.

With the boy gone, it seemed that only the stragglers remained in the room.

"The soul...?"

The soldier touched the Heart of God in his arms, but the body in his sight was lifeless.

"So that's it."

As if they had reached a consensus, the soldiers' smiles became increasingly distorted.

“It’s getting more and more interesting.”

...

There aren't many soldiers in Inazuma now.

Rongcai Festival kept most of the Inazuma soldiers on the outlying islands.

The previous fireworks display had attracted many soldiers from Inazuma Castle.

The memory container that Hayato stole also prompted the general to send out all the soldiers of the castle tower.

All of this could be described as a coincidence, or it could be seen as Mu Xian's plan.

Mu Xian's only goal was to meet the general without any hindrance.

The stone steps look almost exactly the same as they did three years ago; Mu Xian can even see the marks left by the blade.

That was left behind when Mu Xian and General Lei Dian first met.

She said she was not Thor, but a puppet created by Thor.

At that time, Mu Xian did not know the meaning of the so-called puppet, and only thought that she was a guard under the Thunder God.

Mu Xian called her "Little Doll," and she simply accepted this so-called title in silence.

Over time, by the time Mu Xian learned that she was the Thunder and Lightning General, he had gotten used to calling her that.

But how long did it take for Mu Xian to change this name?

With his right foot stepping on the knife marks on the stone steps, Mu Xian felt somewhat dazed.

Perhaps it was when she forced herself to watch those who shouldn't have died die in front of her, or even by her own hand.

When the facade of approachability is torn away, the cold-blooded general can no longer be called a puppet...

Mu Xian looked up at the castle tower. Thunderclouds were still gathered above the tower, but there was no more rain.

"You finally arrived."

Iwazo, with a katana hanging from his waist, descended the stone steps.

"I told you to meet here, why are you so late?"

As he spoke, Iwazo noticed the katana in Muxian's hand.

"Huh? Is this your new knife?"

Even though the sword was not drawn, Iwazo could still sense the sharpness that the scabbard could not conceal.

"It seems to be a pretty good famous sword. It looks like you're really looking forward to it."

Although Iwazo's guesses were all wrong, Mu Xian wouldn't directly deny them and spoil his mood.

Mu Xian silently continued walking up the steps of the castle tower, and Iwazo's voice rang out again.

"By the way, what's the name of your knife?"

"Such a fine sword must have a name, right?"

Mu Xian continued walking forward without stopping, but he didn't use the excuse he had used on Ganjin Island.

"I remember your old sword was called Yanqie, right..."

"I've always heard you brag that your knife can cut through smoke."

Mu Xian opened his mouth, and the bright yellow scabbard looked particularly dazzling.

"Now it's called 'not speaking of good.'"

Mu Xian continued to lift his feet, getting closer and closer to the castle tower.

"Didn't you want to see my martial arts?"

"However, remember to stay away from the battlefield."

Zheng!

The blade was drawn, and the gate to the castle tower was opened without anyone noticing.

The scabbard was tossed to Iwazo by Mu Xian, who then walked step by step into the castle tower, sword in hand.

The purple-haired woman, revered as the Thunder General by the people of Inari, sat in the center of the hall.

She closed her eyes, her dreams set aside, and held a purple naginata in her hand.

The general opened his eyes, but his expression changed slightly when he saw that face.

—It really does look like it...maybe even...

This thought vanished in an instant, because General Thunder saw Mu Xian take out the square memory container with his right hand.

For some reason, the memory container emitted a faint glow, as if the memories had never been extracted.

"If you win, you can take this item."

"If you lose, hand over the power of the Divine Cherry Tree to me."

As he spoke, Mu Xian slowly placed the memory container on the ground.

This was not a duel before the emperor.

It was far more serious than a duel before the emperor.

After all, Mu Xian's opponent was the real Thunder General.

Chapter 103 That Was a Clash Between the Superior and the Inferior

The two stood facing each other, but it was General Thunder who launched the first attack.

She suddenly appeared in front of Mu Xian, the tip of the naginata in her hand only a few centimeters away from Mu Xian's brow.

But it could only get within a few centimeters, and at that moment Mu Xian had already blocked the naginata.

The Thunder General, whose attack had been blocked, was clearly surprised, but quickly recovered.

The lightning on his body intensified, preparing for his next attack.

But preparation takes time, and that time is enough for Mu Xian to launch a counterattack.

The unassuming blade, which had blocked the attack, deflected and slashed at the general with unexpected speed.

But it was all in vain.

Just as the blade was about to touch General Thunder, General Thunder transformed into a bolt of lightning and passed through Mu Xian's body.

clang! !

Although he was clearly aiming at General Leidian, Mu Xian somehow managed to place the blade against his own chest.

Previously, not only did the Thunder General transform into lightning, but she also unleashed a slash at the same time.

Tiny purple arcs of electricity danced across the blade, but then a strange pattern suddenly appeared on the blade, engulfing the arcs of electricity.

Mu Xian saw all of this. He frowned, feeling that the patterns on the blade were somewhat familiar.

These patterns closely resemble some of the blessing spells that Mu Xian saw on Haiqi Island.

Putting aside the speculation that had crossed his mind, Mu Xian focused his attention back on the battle before him.

Neither side gained an advantage in their exchange, but Mu Xian knew he couldn't stop.

After all, Mu Xian wasn't sure if Beidou could hold off the soldiers of the entire Inazuma Castle for too long, and Mu Xian didn't want to be captured by these Inazuma soldiers before it was all over.

He took a step forward and slashed at the general again, but the general swept his naginata horizontally, about to cut Mu Xian in half at the waist.

Trade injury for injury?

Not really. At least the general didn't think that the katana would hurt him, nor did he think that Mu Xian would risk serious injury to save his own from a minor one.

In General Thunder's eyes, the challenger before him had no choice but to flee.

If they manage to escape here, then General Thunder will seize the initiative and launch a fierce and relentless attack.

But to General Thunder's surprise, the blade that was being swung suddenly accelerated.

The blade is moving at such a speed that it could strike General Raiden before the naginata hits Musen.

This ability to suddenly increase the speed of the blade shocked General Raiden.

Part of it is due to the exquisite skill of this swordsmanship.

Another part is that General Raiden sensed a familiar feeling from the swordsmanship...

However, General Thunder doesn't have time to think about what's going on right now; she's the one facing the choice.

Avoid?

Why not dodge?

Or...

General Raiden quickly made his own choice, taking a step back with his right foot to create distance between himself and Mu Xian, but his naginata continued to sweep forward.

The naginata is much longer than the katana. Raiden General's retreat not only extended the attack range of the tatami, but also placed the wooden sword within the range of the razor blade.

Everything seems to have settled down...

But the next moment, flames surged forth, completely engulfing the naginata in the general's hand.

With his vision obscured by the flames, General Thunder seemed to sense something and took a step back.
