I just hope that I will be able to handle the situation when the time comes, since the resistance is growing stronger very quickly.

I'm having trouble getting a feel for the Inazuma storyline, so it's best to be cautious.

After confirming this, the three of them headed to Mondstadt together, and Su Hao, Abedo, and Zhong Li continued their casual conversation.

Then came a deafening explosion from afar.

The expressions on the three people's faces froze instantly.

Who set off the firecrackers?

Hisaki Shinobu poked her head out from the kitchen. She obviously didn't think much of it, just assuming it might be firecrackers.

After all, just like Inazuma's fireworks, Liyue must have something similar.

"I'm going out for a bit..."

Zhongli reluctantly got up and decided to go out and take a look; he had a bad feeling.

“Mr. Zhongli, I’ll go with you.” As Keli’s best older brother, Abedo also sensed something was wrong and decided to accompany Zhongli.

Su Hao also silently stood up and followed the two out, because he didn't want to miss the show.

"?"

Hisako, who was working in the kitchen, had a question mark on her head, but she still said, "Remember to come back for dinner in an hour."

Hisaki Shinobu then quietly continued working.

Similarly, Zhongli, Abedo, and Su Hao headed towards the source of the explosion, which was near Liyue Harbor.

The loud explosion naturally attracted the attention of the Thousand Rock Army patrolling the city, as well as many other people.

Zhongli, Abedo, and Su Hao, who were very worried about this, decided to go over there to check, and then they saw two red figures running up to them.

"Oh dear~ what brings you all here?"

The newcomers were none other than Hu Tao and Ke Li. Hu Tao looked at Zhong Li with a somewhat subtle expression and said, "Let's go back to the Hall of Rebirth first. This is not the place to talk."

Little Klee looked very nervous, as if she were telling everyone that she had done something wrong.

"Ugh!"

Zhongli sighed deeply, realizing he needed to be more careful from now on. He looked at Keli and saw a hint of helplessness in his eyes. He really should say...

As expected of Alice's daughter, her innate ability to cause trouble is impossible to hide.

Abedo also looked at Hu Tao with a somewhat subtle expression. Theoretically speaking, with an adult watching, it was unlikely that anything would happen.

How could an explosion have occurred in less than ten minutes?

Judging from the Chiyan Army and the onlookers, something had clearly happened. Seeing that things were not going well, Kurumi grabbed Klee and ran away.

No one knew what had happened, but Zhongli still led Master Hu and Keli back to the Hall of Rebirth.

"Mmm~~~ It smells so good!"

At this moment, Hu Tao returned to the Rebirth Hall. Her eyes lit up, and she smiled as she looked at the kitchen, saying, "It seems that I, the head of the hall, will have to show you my skills."

Zhongli reached out and grabbed Hu Tao's little head. He said calmly, "Hall Master Hu, can you tell me what just happened?"

"..."

Hu Tao fell silent for the first time in a long while, seemingly pondering the best way to defend herself.

"Um!" Klee spoke up at this moment, sounding a little aggrieved. "My sister Hu Tao and I were planning to go to Liyue Harbor to find fish."

"Sister Walnut asked me if I knew how to catch fish, and I said I knew how to fry fish..."

"Then... I took out the bouncing bomb."

With that, Klee, looking rather aggrieved, took out the bouncy bomb and showed it to Zhongli.

"Hmm..." Zhongli looked at the bouncy bomb and could tell that it wasn't particularly destructive. It seemed to be a bomb specifically designed to blast fish.

What happened that made such a loud noise?

Aberdo also remembered that the bouncy bombs used to blast fish weren't that powerful, so why did they turn out like this?

Su Hao looked at Hu Tao, whose body was stiff and motionless, and asked, "Hall Master Hu, could it be you?"

While Klee is indeed mischievous, her research on bombs in the story is quite impressive; she can create bombs that don't harm others.

They can also research bombs for blasting fish, bombs specifically designed to deal with bad guys, and bombs specifically designed to blast mountains.

Therefore, theoretically speaking, if it were just about frying fish, Klee wouldn't be able to make such a big commotion.

Hmm... unless she accidentally increased the quantity while researching fish bombs.

That's practically impossible. Klee isn't the kind of brat who makes bombs. Having grown up making bombs, she naturally knows very well the kind of harm bombs can cause to people.

In that case, it's highly likely that Master Hu is behind it all.

"Hahaha~~~" Hu Tao laughed heartily when she heard Su Hao's words and felt Zhong Li and Abedo's gazes fixed on her. She turned around and said helplessly, "I didn't expect this either."

"I thought it was a small bomb, like a firecracker, so I asked Klee if she wanted to see a big bomb."

"Then I secretly put talismans on the bombs, the kind that increase their power, and you can probably feel it after that."

"However, I didn't expect that increasing its power would cause such a terrifying situation."

Hu Tao shrugged, somewhat relieved, and said, "Luckily, the place where we planted the bomb was in a no-man's-land. There were no boats or people around."

"But if there were people around, I doubt they would have put up any talismans, hehehe."

Upon hearing Hu Tao's words, Zhong Li covered his face and told Hu Tao to take care of the child. He realized he had misunderstood something.

It's only been a dozen minutes, and the other side almost blew up Liyue Harbor while they were taking care of their child for a while.

Abedo was somewhat relieved; thankfully, it was just a bomb for blasting fish. If Klee had brought out a bouncing bomb that could blow up a mountain, the situation would have been terrible.

Even if Zhongli were there, Abel and Klee's journey in Liyue would probably come to an end.

Thinking of this, Abedo gave Hu Tao a deep look. No, he absolutely couldn't let her take care of the child, or the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Sister Hu Tao is such a kind person!" Ke Li looked at Zhong Li's subtle expression, hugged his leg, and said pitifully, "Mr. Zhong Li, please don't blame her, okay?"

"It's all Klee's fault. If Klee hadn't wanted to fry the fish, this wouldn't have happened."

Seeing Keli's pitiful appearance, Zhongli sighed, unsure of what to say.

He naturally didn't blame Hu Tao; after all, she just thought the bouncy bomb in Klee's hand was a firecracker.

Seeing that the child is still young, I plan to give them a surprise.

Unexpectedly, it was Keli who gave Master Hu a pleasant surprise.

"Don't worry, I'm not angry at all."

Although Zhongli felt helpless, he didn't show much emotion towards the pitiful Klee. He slowly said, "Just next time, please don't play with bombs in Liyue Harbor."

As long as you don't use bombs inside Liyue Harbor, you'll generally be fine.

"Phew." X2

Kurumi and Klee breathed a sigh of relief, clearly feeling that the matter was over.

"Oh, right." At this moment, Su Hao seemed to have thought of something and looked at Keli to remind her, "Keli, you said that Sister Hu Tao is a really, really good person, which means..."

"She's even better than a good person, why don't you call her Saint Walnut?"

Hearing this, Hu Tao's face fell, and she looked at Su Hao speechlessly, saying, "Why do you make me sound so old? Am I some kind of ancient saint?!"

Klee was still young. She glanced at Su Hao, then at Hu Tao, and then exclaimed with an innocent smile, "Sister Hu Tao is a saint!!!"

Chapter 132 Abyss Apostle, Brother Long Appears!

Saint Walnut was born.

When Su Hao heard Ke Li say, "Sister Hu Tao is a saint," he felt that the whole world had become a better place.

Hu Tao got goosebumps all over her body and quickly covered Ke Li's mouth, telling her not to call herself a saint.

She's still very young, a virgin, not some saint, just a good person.

In Klee's eyes, Kurumi was like a saint, not only taking her out to play but also actively increasing the power of the Bouncing Bomb.

Even after the incident occurred, she immediately stopped it, saying she would take responsibility. After all, she was the head of the Hall of Rebirth, and as long as no one was killed, everything would be fine.

Amidst these playful banter, time ticked by until Hisagi Shinobu announced, "Dinner's ready!!!"

Then Su Hao and the others started eating, and Hu Tao and Ke Li also regained their usual cheerfulness and liveliness.

Hisagi Shinobu also took the time to ask what had just happened, and Su Hao naturally told her everything.

After eating and drinking to their hearts' content, Hu Tao decided to take Ke Li out to play again.

Abedo and Zhongli stopped the two, saying it was getting late and they should play again tomorrow.

But Hu Tao disagreed, saying that the night market was the charm of Liyue Harbor, and that they were going shopping, not to cause trouble or play with bombs.

Despite Kurumi's strong opposition, Abedo temporarily confiscated the bomb from Klee's body.

"…………"

Seeing Klee's teary eyes, Abedo couldn't bear it. There was nothing he could do; they were in Liyue Harbor, and the Summoning Ceremony was about to begin.

At peak times, and at that moment, who knows if a thief might reach out and steal Klee's bouncy bomb.

If they take away the bombs used to blast fish, that would be fine. These things won't kill anyone; at most, they'll leave you covered in dust or knocked unconscious.

But what if those petty thieves took away the bombs that were used to blow up the mountain?

That would be a huge problem. After all, Aberdo personally helped design the explosion; how could he not know how powerful it was?

However, to prevent Klee from being labeled a "terrorist," her brother Abedo confiscated all her bombs, intending to return them to her later.

"Alright, alright, let's go! Let me, your older sister Hu Tao, show you around the Liyue Harbor night market." Hu Tao took Klee's hand and they started heading towards the Liyue Harbor night market.

"Yay!! Klee, let's go!!!"

At this moment, Klee also forgot about the fact that her bomb had been sent away by her brother Abedo, and happily followed Kurumi toward the night market.
