The Embers of King's Teyvat Journey

"...I forgot."

After offering a token explanation, the stragglers turned to look at the young master.

And you, young master?

"Although I know you may draw it badly, I'm prepared to redraw it. Here you go."

The more the soldiers spoke, the lower the young master's head drooped. Finally, as if resigned to his fate, he raised his head and replied in a nonchalant tone.

"sorry I forgot."

"Forgot?!?"

After the roar, there was a series of loud punches and kicks, interspersed with occasional clapping from someone – quite a lively scene!

Chapter 484 Weird

"Are you okay?"

"Dusor, I'm going!"

The young master, whose head was swollen like a pig's, was slurring his words, and Yu Jin couldn't understand what he was saying either, so he just assumed that nothing was wrong.

Just moments before, Ember had witnessed an internal struggle within the Fatui. The two Executors' actions were spectacular, leaving Ember and the other Fatui who had rushed over in awe.

The result was obvious: the skirmishers won.

As the loser, the young master was transformed into a pig's head.

Logically speaking, even if a quarrel had occurred, a soldier would not have resorted to such a vicious act against a fellow soldier's son.

But who could blame the young master for getting so carried away that he completely forgot about the important matter?

Moreover, judging from Ember's opinion, it seems that the Scattered Soldiers vented their pent-up emotions on the young master this time.

Hearing things like "You dare look me in the eye?" or "Shout louder!" gave Yu Jin goosebumps. He couldn't understand how the skirmishers could shout such excitedly.

That's right, the emotion that the soldier has been suppressing all along is "arrogance"! However, because Ember is always suppressing him, the soldier can't be arrogant.

This really stifled the stragglers. He had been making sarcastic remarks about others for hundreds of years, and now he was forced to hold it in. Only he knew how painful it was.

"The area you were in charge of before was in this area, right?" On a hillside, a soldier looked at the land shrouded in mist in the distance and asked Young Master Pighead Limited Edition.

The young master immediately nodded; he dared not provoke the scattered soldiers again. There was no way around it; although he claimed to be gradually approaching the strength of the scattered soldiers, it was only a step closer, and he was still quite a distance from being on par with them.

"Lead the way and explore again!"

Upon hearing the soldier's almost commanding tone, the young master did not argue but led the way.

Since only Ember and the stragglers accompanied him this time, the young master did not hold back at all—he even ran faster than before.

Ember and the stragglers easily kept up with the young master's pace; the former was taking photos, while the latter was writing and drawing.

Both of them appeared relaxed and carefree, which made the young master in front of them feel secretly saddened.

When did I become the worst?

Wait, it seems like I've always been at the bottom among the executives, haven't I?

Once he realized this, the young master immediately felt relieved.

The three of them traversed the island at breakneck speed; to the average person, it would seem as if they were seeing things. Their speed was so fast that it was almost imperceptible to the untrained eye.

However, this rapid pace did not last long, and soon the young master stopped.

"Something's not right. Why are there still so many Hilichurls and Ruin Guards here? I cleared them out yesterday!"

The young master stood there, scratching his head. He had slaughtered his way from south to north yesterday; if there was anyone he had missed, it would only be the Hilichurls.

But when I came here today, I was surprised to find that there were still so many ruin guardians and other monsters!

This made the young master begin to doubt that the formidable enemy Yu Jin had mentioned was not the Golden King Beast, but rather a massive lair capable of housing so many demons.

The young master enjoys both the hard-fought victory over a powerful enemy and the solo incursion into enemy territory to fight on all sides.

"What's wrong with your head?"

Yu Jin didn't care about the young master's little schemes; he was more concerned about how the young master's face had returned to normal so quickly.

"That's normal. As long as I'm not missing a part, I'll recover in a few days at most."

"That's not normal!"

As he spoke, the young master rolled up his sleeves and showed the scabs on his arms to Ember and the stragglers.

Unfortunately, nobody cared.

"Oh? There are more monsters now? Are you sure?" The soldier asked the young master, his eyes gleaming.

"Sure!"

The young master answered the soldier's question with certainty.

"I understand. Let's finish the important business first, then we can consider other things." The soldier nodded to the young master, urging him to continue.

The young master, unsuspecting, put his doubts aside and ran off again.

After traveling some distance through the mist, the young master returned to the island where he had previously fought the Golden King Beast.

Upon his arrival, he immediately sensed an unusual aura—the flat space on the island was constantly distorting and shaking.

Space is an intangible thing, but the young master inexplicably felt that the space here was very "thin", as if something was corroding the space here.

"careful!"

"Roar!"

Sensing something, the young master immediately turned around and called out to the embers and stragglers behind him. Unexpectedly, the Golden King Beast beat him to it.

A familiar golden wolf head emerged from the void and lunged forward with a vicious bite. Its target was Ember, who was looking around aimlessly.

"Chong-"

"Ouch~"

Sparks flew everywhere, and the Golden Beast felt as if it were biting into an iron mountain, its head buzzing.

Seeing this, the Golden King Beast had no lingering thoughts and instantly retreated into the void.

"What is that? Is it raining stones?" Yu Jin picked up a sharp "stone" about the thickness of his arm from the ground and scratched his head in confusion.

In the blink of an eye, a pile of stones appeared around him, and they were all as long and sharp as steel needles.

Luckily, it hit him; if it had hit someone else, they would have been buried alive.

"N-nothing...it's just...it's just that the wolf from yesterday came back." The young master swallowed and stiffly waved his arm.

"A wolf? Didn't you deal with that wolf yesterday?" Yu Jin asked, puzzled, upon hearing the young master's words.

Young Master can't beat that wolf? That's impossible! Could it be that he misjudged it?

"It's solved, but I don't know why it came back to life." The young master was also puzzled, but he quickly came up with a possibility.

"When that wolf died yesterday, ley lines gushed forth. Could there be an element of ley lines involved?"

The young master explained with great enthusiasm, feeling that he might have found the truth.

"Perhaps! But it would be difficult for the earth's veins to revive such a powerful creature within a single day."

The soldier stroked his chin. The energy of the ley lines is also finite. Where the ley lines are blocked, phantoms of the past will certainly appear, but they don't appear out of thin air; they require the energy of the blocked ley lines to be consumed.

Clearing blockages in the earth's veins generally involves a fight to disperse the illusory image formed by the veins. Without the blockage of power, the earth's veins will naturally become unobstructed.

“But the geomantic veins of Keheguan are a mess to begin with, can’t you not feel it?” The young master tapped the ground with his foot.

The disorder of the earth's veins in He Guan is the most chaotic you have ever seen. Under such a degree of disorder, it is not unacceptable that a golden king beast would be born every day.

“That makes sense.” The soldier rarely agreed with the young master’s statement. He looked around and his gaze settled on a towering rock pillar.

"sieve!"

With a wave of his hand, the skirmisher gathered lightning elemental power on his arm. Then, the elemental power surged, and a bright arc flew towards the rock pillar.

"boom!"

The curved arc swept across the rock pillar, instantly severing it in half. The cut surface was smooth and even, without any protrusions.

"What are you doing?!" The young master was startled when he saw the stragglers suddenly destroy the rock pillar.

Are the stragglers going crazy again?

"Just marking it. I just have an immature idea in my mind that needs time to be verified."

A playful smile appeared on the soldier's face. After speaking, he lowered his head and drew the last few strokes on the drawing in his hand.

"Let's go, it's mostly finished. We can come back and take another look tomorrow."

After finishing the drawing, the soldier rolled up the blueprint in his hand and ran back to the camp without looking back.

Chapter 485 Crane View in Reincarnation

2024-02-13

"What exactly are you up to?" In the dimly lit camp, the young master sat around the campfire and asked the stragglers who were resting with their eyes closed.

"Won't we know when it gets light?" Upon hearing this, the soldier glanced at the young master, then closed his eyes again, looking mysterious.

"What the hell?" The young master scratched his head, his eyes filled with confusion.

"You're really something, staying up all night with us despite your injuries." Yu Jin, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground picking his toes, was impressed by the young master's energetic appearance and marveled at his robust physique.

He stayed up all night despite his injury, acting as if nothing was wrong.

"What's so surprising? I've been through three days and three nights without sleep!" The young master glanced at Yu Jin, thinking he was making a fuss over nothing.

If an executive can't even handle such a small setback, how can he win people's respect?

The rest of the Fools had all returned and were resting in the camp. Ember and his two companions, however, were chatting idly around the campfire.

However, it was mostly Ember and Young Master chatting nonsense, with the stragglers occasionally chiming in.

Before we knew it, the dark fog had cleared up—it was getting light.
