It should be noted that there were not only the four of them here; not far away, there were also three immortals checking the seal of the Dragon King Ruotu.
With this lineup, they could even put up a fight against a powerful demon god.
Let alone one Abyss Apostle, even ten Abyss Apostles would be helpless.
"…………"
Shen He, who was stopped by Su Hao, didn't say much. She just stared at the spot where the Abyss Apostle had disappeared, and her gaze became slightly dangerous.
Clearly, Shen He has his eye on this Abyss Apostle. Next time they meet, he'll definitely kill him and scatter his ashes!
"However, this can be considered a successful mission."
Looking at the two Abyss Mages who were still in a daze, Su Hao knew that the Abyss Apostles wanted to kill them, after all, these people were very ruthless.
If there is anything about them that deserves respect, it is probably only Prince Sora of the Abyss.
Although Su Hao didn't know what Kong had done within the Abyss Order to gain the support of such a large group of non-human monsters.
It's important to understand that the Abyss Order is no benevolent group. They are ruthless to their enemies, but even more ruthless to their own people. Those who once needed protection were used as tools by them.
Later, in conversation with Daines Reeb, it was learned that these guys completely disregarded their past glory and were only interested in overthrowing the laws of nature. Anyone who stood in their way, even former comrades, would be mercilessly killed.
Knowing this, Su Hao did not relax his guard at all when he captured the Abyss Mage.
Just as he expected, the Abyss Apostle appeared, but he managed to defend against all of its attacks.
Successfully capturing two live Abyss Mages is quite an accomplishment, and this achievement will make my life in Liyue more comfortable.
"Thank you." Ke Qing looked at Su Hao with great gratitude and sighed, "If you weren't a member of the Thunder God's family, I'm afraid I would be trying to recruit you to work for me by now."
"Whether it's your insight or your combat ability, you're just too amazing. If I had been ambushed just now, I probably wouldn't have been able to react at all."
Shen He nodded slightly. In fact, she hadn't expected that after the battle, there would be an enemy hiding in the space who would suddenly appear and attack Su Hao.
Gan Yu reacted the fastest; the moment she saw the portal, she drew her bow and shot an arrow without hesitation.
Even so, that guy still managed to escape; he was clearly prepared.
"It's nothing, a small matter." Su Hao waved his hand, indicating that Ke Qing didn't need to worry about it.
At the same time, Su Hao felt that the identity of "Thor's Familiar" was really useful. Because Keqing couldn't win him over because of this identity, he saved himself a lot of trouble.
Being with A-Qing is fine, but working with her is out of the question. Su Hao doesn't want to transmigrate to this world and start a 996 work schedule.
“But this way, we’ll know what they’re planning.” Keqing looked at the group of abyss mages with a dangerous glint in her eyes.
Keqing's attitude towards the Abyss Order was very clear: these guys were extremely dangerous.
According to historical records, the Abyss Order has always attempted to overthrow the land-based kingdoms, and in the history of Liyue, these guys from the Abyss Order have done some dangerous things.
Even the anomalies within the Abyss of Layered Rocks could very well have been orchestrated by the Abyss Order.
“………………” Shen He didn’t finish speaking; she calmly looked at the Abyss Mage.
At this moment, Gan Yu jumped down from above. As soon as she landed, she ran to Su Hao and the others and asked, "Are you all alright?"
Although Gan Yu knew that Su Hao and the others were not injured, she still asked them.
"It's nothing." Su Hao shook his head and looked at the Dragon Tree, asking, "When will the immortals come out?"
During the battle, Su Hao also saw that the three immortals were heading towards the Fulong Tree. If they were just checking the seal, it shouldn't take long.
"About a few minutes." Gan Yu looked at the Fulong Tree and said seriously, "If it's just checking the seal, it won't take much time."
"But if the seal is broken, then we all have to be prepared for a fight to the death."
As she spoke, Gan Yu looked at Ke Qing beside her and said politely, "Miss Ke Qing, could you take the two Abyss Mages back to Liyue Harbor first?"
"???" Ke Qing was full of questions. She felt that she could stay and fight, even though her combat power was indeed at the bottom here.
After all, she couldn't seem to defeat Su Hao, Shen He, and Gan Yu herself, but she was definitely capable of fighting! It's unlikely that she would prioritize taking two Abyss Mages back to Liyue Harbor to avoid the upcoming battle.
Just as Ke Qing was about to retort, three immortals emerged from under the Fulong Tree.
Seeing this, Gan Yu visibly breathed a sigh of relief, because the emergence of three True Lords meant that there were no problems inside.
If you stay there too long, it means there's a big problem, and you must contact the Emperor immediately.
"It seems the battle here is over."
Looking at the corpses of the Hilichurls scattered on the ground behind him, and the two Abyss Mages in Yuhengxing's hands, True Monarch Xiaoyue Zhuyang nodded with satisfaction and sighed, "It seems you are more reliable than I imagined."
"With Shen He and Gan Yu here, there will naturally be no problems." True Lord Li Shui Die Shan said in a very calm tone, "Not to mention, with the Thunder God's retinue and Yu Heng Star here, there will be even less chance of any accidents."
Hearing their words, Liu Yunjiefeng raised his head with considerable pride, as if to say, "Of course, look who your disciple is."
“Immortal.” Ke Qing had previously recognized that True Lord Xiaoyue Zhuyang and True Lord Lishui Dieshan had some prejudice against Su Hao, after all, the other party was a follower of the Thunder God.
Now, Ke Qing looked at the two immortals and said seriously, "Su Hao helped us capture two abyss mages and also repelled an unknown enemy."
Ke Qing was trying to gain credit for Su Hao, but it was the truth, if Su Hao hadn't intervened.
Even if the Abyss Mage couldn't win, he could still find a way to escape. But Su Hao pressed on relentlessly and predicted their teleportation locations more than once.
In addition, the sheer power of that single strike that instantly killed the Abyss Mage caused the two Abyss Mages to become very fearful, fearing that they would create openings in their defenses.
In the end, when the Abyss Mage realized he could no longer escape and prepared to fight to the death, Su Hao seized the opportunity and shattered the elemental shield, thus capturing him.
That was still manageable. But when the Abyss Apostles appeared later, apart from Gan Yu who reacted quickly, Shen He and Ke Qing didn't react at all.
If it were them who were to capture the Abyss Mages, the two defenseless Abyss Mages would probably be killed on the spot by the Abyss Apostles in an instant.
After hearing what Ke Qing said, Xiao Yue Zhu Yang and Li Shui Die Shan Zhen Jun looked at Su Hao with slightly different eyes.
Their gazes toward Su Hao grew even closer, after all, he had helped Li Yue capture two Abyss Mages and thwarted an unknown enemy's attempt to silence them.
It's safe to say that anyone would find Su Hao quite agreeable, and the immortals aren't unreasonable; they initially tried to keep Su Hao out of the picture.
It's also because Su Hao is a member of the Inazuma family, so there's no need for him to get involved in Liyue's affairs. What if something happens to Su Hao in Liyue and the Thunder General blames him?
"Thank you for your help." True Monarch Xiaoyue Zhuyang expressed his gratitude to Su Hao, and continued, "I am not a stingy person. Since you have helped Liyue, if you need my help in anything, please feel free to ask."
The True Lord of Flowing Water and Die Mountain nodded in agreement. In terms of status, Su Hao, who possessed the authority of the Thunder God, was of similar standing to them.
In Inazuma, Su Hao, as a member of the Thunder God's Familiar, naturally enjoys a transcendent status. Why would he bother fighting for the people of Liyue in Liyue?
This only shows that he has a good personality, and all he can gain is the friendship of the Seven Stars and the immortals.
"No need, no need." Su Hao shook his head; he was just helping out casually.
Furthermore, Zhongli gave him a generous gift, enough for him to live on for a lifetime. It was only right that he helped Liyue with a small favor.
Seeing how humble Su Hao was, the three True Lords grew to like him more and more, thinking that this young man was capable and easy to get along with!
"Alright, let's get down to business." Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun looked at everyone and said slowly, "There are indeed traces of malicious damage to a corner of the seal set up by the Emperor."
"Judging from the signs of malicious damage, it was indeed caused by the ancient rock dragon lizard, as there are still residual claw marks and traces of elemental fluctuations on it."
Upon hearing this, Keqing and Ganyu felt a chill run down their spines. So, the place the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard had its eye on was the place where the Ruo Tuo Dragon King was sealed?
"However," Liu Yun said, changing the subject with a hint of a smile, "that guy is really stupid. Did he really think his little bit of power could break through the Emperor's defenses?"
"What an incredibly stupid guy. You should know that the sealing barrier set up by the Emperor was to prevent the Dragon King Ruotu from escaping from inside."
"Do you really think you can break free from the sealing barrier by brute force? That's laughable! If it were that simple, the Dragon King Ruoduo, who has lost his mind due to wear and tear, would have already come out."
Hearing this, Gan Yu and Ke Qing breathed a sigh of relief, and Shen He silently put away Xi Zai.
"So, the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard really did come?" Su Hao asked Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun, "But he didn't break the sealing barrier set up by the Rock King Emperor. So where is he now?"
Clearly, Su Hao was very interested in the whereabouts of the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard.
In Su Hao's eyes, the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard was already a humanoid Mora Mine, and whether he and Ella could enjoy a comfortable life for the rest of their lives depended entirely on him.
“It’s alright.” True Lord Lishui Dieshan said calmly, “As long as we are sure that Ruotuo Dragon King is safe, then we don’t need to worry about the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard. The places he has fled to are just a few.”
"Initially, we didn't bother him, simply because he had once submitted to Ruo Tuo and the Emperor, and also because there was only one Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard ever born."
“Right now, he dares to try to break the Emperor’s seal and even wants to attack you. He has crossed our bottom line.”
True Lord of Moon-Cut-and-Build-Sun and True Lord of Cloud-Still-Borrow-Wind nodded slightly. It wasn't just that the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard dared to attempt to break the Emperor's seal and was sentenced to death.
More importantly, the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard had tried to kill Su Hao and his group, but fortunately, Su Hao and his group had the means to fight back.
If it had been an ordinary Thousand Rock Army soldier or a common mining civilian, the situation would probably have been handled much more smoothly than the escape of the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard.
Instead, they perished in the mouths of the ancient rock dragon lizard.
Because of this, the three immortals decided to find the Ancient Rock Lizard and kill it to prevent it from threatening the people of Liyue.
As immortals who have survived since the Demon God War, they believe in the principle of "better to kill the innocent than let the guilty go free." If they were to spare the life of the Ancient Rock Lizard, it would be irresponsible to the people of Liyue.
Furthermore... it's not impossible for ancient rock dragons to reappear. As long as there are still baby rock dragons and rock dragons, then new ancient rock dragons will be born.
"So? Should we go hunt down the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard now?"
Su Hao looked at the three immortals and, seeing their murderous aura, assumed they were about to hunt down the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard.
“No.” True Monarch Xiaoyue Zhuyang shook his head slightly. He looked at Su Hao and said, “This matter will be handled by Liu Yun.”
"After all, a single ancient rock dragon lizard isn't worth our joint effort."
Clearly, the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard, which the Seven Stars treated with such seriousness, was not considered an important existence by the immortals; any immortal could easily deal with it.
“After all, Liu Yun failed to kill him back then, so this is a good opportunity to settle the karmic debt.” True Lord Li Shui Die Shan also said the same thing.
The Moon-Cut Yang True Lord looked at Su Hao and Shen He and chuckled, "Besides, with you and Shen He here, the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard is probably nothing at all."
Shen He nodded calmly, indicating that he would take care of the matter.
Su Hao nodded slightly; he was indeed tempted by the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard's body.
With just a few words, the fate of the ancient rock dragon lizard seemed to be sealed.
Keqing and Ganyu are also preparing to return to Liyue Harbor together. The two Abyss Mages have regained consciousness, and it's time to escort them back for interrogation by professionals.
Lord Lishui Dieshan was worried about the two women, so he offered to escort them, since it had been a long time since he had visited Liyue Harbor.
Keqing and Ganyu did not refuse, because it would be safer to be escorted by immortals. In case enemies like the Abyss Apostles reappeared, the presence of immortals would be crucial.
Maybe we can catch another one alive for interrogation.
And so, Lord Lishui Dieshan led Keqing and Ganyu towards Liyue Harbor.
