In Teyvat, it all begins with rescuing the grass god.

But they were not the opponents he had fought against before.

At the same time, he was also an opponent he could never defeat.

"This damn space."

Looking at the cold-faced, green-haired, green-eyed, and green-clad woman before him, Rhodes gritted his teeth and cursed, "How did it read Appepp's memories?"

Chapter 236 Appepp's Furious Outburst

"What have you been through?!"

The appearance of Apep immediately put everyone on high alert, and Xiao immediately stood in front of everyone, ready to fight.

Apart from Rhodes, no one has ever seen the Grass Dragon.

But it originates from the powerful aura of the primordial dragon.

Even if it's just the tip of the iceberg, even a battle-hardened immortal like Xiao couldn't help but feel tense.

"Nagarjuna King".

Apep's terror reminded Xiao of the Rock Dragon King who fought alongside Zhongli during the Demon God War.

Keep in mind that this is only a fragment of Rhodes's memory.

There is a world of difference between him and Appepp himself.

But just by standing there, she made even the strongest Xiao feel his whole body stiffen.

Prepare for a fight to the death!

Rhodes sighed, put the exhausted Tartaglia aside, and prayed that Zhongli would quickly discover the anomaly and come to the rescue.

He really couldn't understand.

What is the principle behind this ghost space's memory access?

The memories that were read from D'Artagnan and Nightlan were all of people they had recently fought.

But I've never played against Appepp before!

Moreover, even if Rod had ten times the courage, he wouldn't dare to fight Appepp.

A primordial dragon king who has lived for over ten thousand years.

Even after being defeated and stripped of some of his powers by the Heavenly Principles, and even after being plotted against by the Red King and nearly annihilated.

Apep remains the top player in the Teyvat world today.

He was a formidable figure who could break free from the constraints of natural law with his bare hands.

Rhodes could only be thankful that the Apep in front of him was just a phantom replicated from his memories, possessing only a portion of the original's strength; otherwise, Zhongli would have been left to collect their corpses.

However, just as Rhodes and his men were about to make their move...

The puppet-like Apep phantom's eyes suddenly became lively, and a hint of doubt appeared on her icy expression. The killing intent that had permeated the entire secret realm melted away as she examined her hands over and over.

This sudden change did not stop the group from their actions; they unleashed a series of powerful attacks on Appepp's position.

Night Orchid's arrows and Rod's divine magic led the charge, while Xiao's Demon-Slaying Dance served as a backup.

"Human brat, is this how you welcome me?"

What made Rhodes' pupils constrict was...

Just as the three attacks were about to land on Appep, the phantom, which should have only repeated a few words, suddenly spoke as if it had its own consciousness.

at the same time.

Apep's phantom waved her hand, scattering the water elemental arrows shot by Yelan. She then summoned a shield to block the blazing sun's fall from Rhodes. In the phantom swirling around Xiao, she precisely located him, grabbing the He Pu Yuan that was thrusting at her. Without any apparent effort, she easily snatched the He Pu Yuan from Xiao's hand, and Xiao himself was sent flying backward by a fierce straight kick from Apep.

As soon as they fought.

Apep easily neutralized all three attacks, and even Xiao, the strongest of them, was kicked by her so hard that he coughed up blood several times.

"what?"

"Materializing resentment?"

Staring at Xiao, who was wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth and preparing to fight him, Apep's phantom toyed with his He Pu Yuan and said with interest, "You're quite interesting, kid. You can still fight me despite having such a huge amount of resentment."

"."

Xiao didn't reply to her, and instead unleashed the full power of his elemental energy.

His eyes were now bloodshot, veins were bulging on his forehead, and a thicker black mist was rising from the elemental energy surrounding him.

These black mists, formed from karmic obstacles, were visibly intertwined with the elemental power of the demon, and even a single glance at them could induce an unusual sense of mental unease.

Even though Rhodes and Yelan had protected themselves with elemental power beforehand, they could still clearly sense the increasingly intense feeling of irritability.

This was especially difficult for D'Artagnan, who was already completely exhausted.

The burden of activating the Demon King's Armor is no joke.

The continuous and enormous consumption.

Now he can only barely rely on the water elemental power brought by the Eye of God to protect himself from the interference of karma.

"Great Sage Who Subdues Demons! Let's stop for a moment!"

In the tense moment, Rhodes stepped forward, standing between Xiao and Appepp, who were on the verge of exchanging blows.

Then, looking again at the phantom with a mocking expression.

Rod gave a wry smile and said, "Since you've come in person, don't play games with us."

He realized something was wrong the moment the shadow spoke.

Based on the illusions created by the previously sealed space.

These shadows can talk.

However, they can only speak the words from the memories of the person whose memories have been read.

in other words.

If the person standing in front of Rhodes was just a shadow of Appep, then Rhodes should have heard every single word she said.

The fact is.

Rod had no recollection of what she said.

And then there were the things she said later.

Then there is no doubt about it.

I don't know how this sealed space came about, but it actually attracted the consciousness of Apep himself.

how to say.

This actually turned out to be a good thing.

If a mindless being with some of Appepp's power were to be placed here, then Rhodes and his men would inevitably be locked in a deadly battle.

Replace him with a more conscious Apep.

Then the situation is different.

At least.

No one here has ever offended Appepp.

Strictly speaking...

Rhodes and she could be said to have some kind of relationship.

"Humph--"

"Playing games with you?"

"Knowing it was me, you still dared to attack me. You're truly the first one."

Appepp seemed quite unhappy about the attack he had just suffered.

But let’s talk about it.

Just as Rhodes had expected.

Instead of attacking them, Apep continued to observe the surrounding environment.

"she"

Despite remaining wary of Appepp, Xiao, at Rod's prompting, forcefully suppressed his boiling karmic rage and calmed himself down.

"introduce."

Turning to look at the equally astonished Yelan and Dadalia, Rhodes sighed softly, "This is our Sumeru Grass Dragon Apep, not an enemy. Don't ask me anything else; I don't know how she got here either."

The voice just fell.

Apep, who had finished searching the secret realm in a glance, picked up the conversation: "I sensed that there were dragons similar to me, and after a little investigation, I found this place."

talking.

She added with considerable disappointment, "I thought a new Dragon King had been born, but it turns out it's just this broken body."

It turned out to be the case.

Rhodes breathed a sigh of relief and laughed, "Looks like it was just a coincidence."

"Instead of worrying about this, you should worry about the kid next to you."

Apep walked up to the group, stared at Xiao, whose body had tensed up again, and said with a playful tone, "You're about to die, you know that?"

"know."

Xiao's expression was calm.

"Follow me, and I can save your life."

As he returned He Puyuan, Apep casually patted Xiao on the back.

A touch of emerald green mingled with Xiao's azure elemental power, and at an extremely fast speed, suppressed the karmic obstacles on Xiao's body.
