“Young master, you’re going to die here sooner or later anyway, so why don’t we continue practicing? I’ll leave you a whole corpse then.”
(I'm taking tomorrow off. I'll go out to buy some food and also sort out my thoughts and review this part of the plot.)
Chapter 164 The Battle Inside the Golden House (3)
Although the young master's martial arts skills are far inferior to Xiao's, they are very suitable for Su Bai in his current state. At least Su Bai has regained his confidence by playing with the young master, which makes Su Bai, who has been constantly beaten by Xiao, very excited.
Seeing that the young master looked ready to unleash a powerful attack, Su Bai regretfully put away his one-handed sword. It was such a waste that such a good sparring partner was no longer going to play with weapons with him.
"Ying, it seems like they've ignored us... Shouldn't we do something about it?"
Ying realized what Paimon said. "That's right. Why bother with martial ethics when dealing with the Fools?" Looking at the young master who was gathering water elements, Ying realized that the young master's attention was entirely on Su Bai and he hadn't noticed her at all. Was she too weak to be noticed by the young master?
Ying looked at the young master with some displeasure. "Damn it, you're ignoring me, huh? Fine, then I'll teach you a lesson and show you what it means to be betrayed by justice."
Ying gestured for Paimon to wait for him where he was, and then she used the same footwork she used to approach the pigeons on the bridge in Mondstadt, step by step getting closer to the young master who only had eyes for Su Bai.
Su Bai was also feeling a bit of a headache. Although the young master was not as good as him in terms of elemental application and martial arts, his unparalleled combat experience made it impossible for Su Bai to do anything about him for the time being.
Originally, Su Bai wanted to use the lightning element technique he learned from Yae no Miko to let the young master experience the tingling sensation of being electrocuted. However, due to the fire element filling the Golden House and the Golden House's special function, Su Bai had to give up this wonderful idea. After all, he didn't want the Golden House to be destroyed and lose its ability to produce Mora after he finished dealing with the young master.
The young master knew that Su Bai wouldn't use any powerful moves inside the Golden House, so he confidently gathered water elements in front of Su Bai. As long as he didn't use any large-scale moves, the young master was confident that Su Bai wouldn't hit him.
You should know that he and his master were both people who had fought in the Dark Sea. When it comes to combat experience and combat intuition, they were both top-notch.
Speaking of the Dark Outer Sea, I wonder how Master has been doing lately. According to the scouts, some adventurers seem to be heading towards the Dark Outer Sea. I wonder what their purpose is.
At this moment, Su Bai also noticed Ying's movements. Seeing Ying tiptoeing closer to the young master, Su Bai immediately understood Ying's intention. He sighed inwardly that even this simple little girl had learned to launch a sneak attack. Su Bai then calmly argued with the young master to buy time for Ying and create an opportunity.
Because Su Bai was buying time for Ying, while the young master was gathering water elements to show Su Bai his precious treasure, the scene was quite harmonious for a time. If it weren't for the unintentional killing intent that the young master and Su Bai revealed, they might have looked like two friends chatting and laughing.
Both of them knew that the other would not allow them to live, so they were observing each other, waiting for the other to reveal a weakness so they could take them down.
Ten seconds, twenty seconds, one minute, two minutes. The young master, still in the state of Demon King Armor, was nearing his limit. Because Demon King Armor put a tremendous strain on the body, the young master realized that he could not delay any longer and chose to take the initiative. In a hurry, the young master decided to finish the battle quickly, and he used his strongest move.
He poured all the water element he had condensed into the ground, and a whale formed from the water element slowly emerged and leaped into the air.
The young master looked up at the enormous whale above him. This attack was unparalleled in both destructive power and range; Su Bai's small frame simply couldn't withstand it.
Thinking of this, the young master grinned and let out the signature laugh of the Fools' Enforcer. Looking at Su Bai's eyes, which were no different from those of someone looking at an idiot, the young master was stunned.
"Are you scared out of your wits? Aren't you afraid?"
"Fear? Why should I be afraid?"
Su Bai rolled his eyes, flicked the three tails behind him, and asked in feigned confusion.
"You don't know that foxes eat rain? The little fish you caught wouldn't even be enough to fill a gap between my teeth, so why should I be afraid?"
"Little fish? You call my Whale Devouring Annihilation a little fish?" (This thing deals incredibly high damage in the game. Back when I was a newbie, I often got wiped out by this whale when teaming up to fight the Prince...)
Upon hearing Su Bai's words, the young master instantly flew into a rage. This was one of his strongest moves, a crystallization of wisdom he had gleaned from countless battles. Seeing Su Bai's disdainful expression, the young master's anger burned even more fiercely.
"You can insult me, but you cannot insult my Whale Devouring Annihilation!"
"Whale Devouring Annihilation? That's a nice name, but is it really that powerful? I don't see any power in it."
"Heh, I won't bother with a dying man like you. I'll see if you're still this stubborn when my Whale Devouring Annihilation smashes you to pieces."
Seeing that this fox could remain so calm and collected in the face of his Whale Devouring Annihilation, the young master was a little suspicious. Could it be that this fox really had some kind of strong defense? Although he was somewhat hesitant, he still believed in his Whale Devouring Annihilation.
Su Bai raised his head, looking at the enormous water elemental whale that almost covered the entire roof of the Golden House, and feigned disdain, nitpicking as he spoke.
"This slow-moving technique, young master, have you ever actually used it to hit someone who is faster?"
"Um... this..."
Su Bai's words made the young master, who was already less intelligent due to the influence of the Evil Eye, somewhat embarrassed. It seemed that this was indeed the case; his move didn't seem to have much effect on fast people.
"Tsk tsk tsk, judging from this, you've probably never hit it before, right? But thinking about it, with your IQ, it would be strange if you could come up with any impressive moves."
Faced with Su Bai's taunts, the young master wanted to strike him with lightning, but his body was already on the verge of collapse, every part of him aching. Despite the pain, this didn't stop him from continuing his stubbornness.
"Hmph, even if my Whale Devouring Annihilation is a bit slow, it's enough to deal with you. In this confined space, you can't possibly escape."
"Heh, does that mean I can't leave the Golden House? I can come in and deal with you after your whale comes down."
As he spoke, Su Bai walked out of the golden house. The young master could no longer hold back. He looked at Su Bai in shock. He had never imagined that there was such a person.
"How could you do this? Isn't this supposed to be a one-on-one battle between real men? How could you desert your post! What about your dignity as an immortal?"
"Don't talk nonsense. This isn't desertion; it's a strategic retreat. Bye-bye!"
Chapter 165 The Battle Inside the Golden House (4)
"stop!"
Seeing that Su Bai was really about to leave the Golden House, the young master hurriedly called out to Su Bai, "What the hell is this? If you can't beat them, you just quit?"
"If you don't leave the Golden House, I'll tell you about our Winter Kingdom!"
"Hmm? Is that really true?"
Su Bai pretended to be attracted, and the young master was delighted and immediately nodded to confirm Su Bai's question. Seeing that Su Bai was still worried, the young master added a sentence.
“As long as you don’t leave the Golden House, we can talk now. I promise I won’t lie.”
"Of course, it can only be news from our Winter Kingdom, not other news."
Watching the whale about to fall and Su Bai deep in thought, the young master slowly removed his Demon King Armor. The Evil Eye's influence on him while in Demon King Armor was too great, turning him from a genius into a simpleton.
Seeing Su Bai deep in thought, Gongzi Chang breathed a sigh of relief, thinking fiercely to himself, "Think it over, think it over! In just a few breaths, I can not only obtain the Heart of the Rock God, but also present the Queen with a fox fur coat. This is truly a double blessing!"
Speaking of the Heart of God, since it's neither within the Rock King Emperor's immortal body nor in his or Su Bai's possession, among the three people present, the only one who might ultimately obtain it is that traveler, right? Wait... where is that boss now?
Seeing that the young master had relaxed his guard and removed his demonic armor, Yingjian, who had been waiting for an opportunity behind him, narrowed her eyes slightly, found the right position, seized the opportunity, and stabbed the young master with her sword.
With a soft "thud," a sword tip appeared in the young master's chest. He endured the pain in his chest, his eyes filled with disbelief. When had this traveler appeared behind him? He hadn't noticed at all.
"Cough cough, when, cough cough, I never expected that you would be the one to defeat me."
The young master gritted his teeth and leaned forward, pulling the black rock sword stuck in his chest out with him. Ying coldly watched the young master. Given her relationship with Su Bai, if Su Bai hadn't wanted to get some useful information out of the young master, that sword would have pierced his heart.
Above the Golden House, the water elemental whale, which had leaped high into the air, lost the young master's control and, after letting out a mournful cry, turned into a pool of water and fell from the sky.
"Lord Su Bai, as a celestial being of Liyue, you not only lack martial ethics but are also so despicable. Hmph, did you obtain your honor as a celestial being through sneak attacks?"
Looking at Su Bai, who was still smiling in front of him, the young master finally realized that he had been tricked by Su Bai, who had created a wind element shield for Ying and Paimon.
"It seems that you have a certain understanding of the culture of Liyue, and you even know the term 'martial virtue'. But do you know that we Liyue people talk about 'martial virtue' only when the other party's purpose is to spar and exchange ideas? For invaders like you, returning to the embrace of the land is your best destiny."
Even though he was inside the wind element shield, the young master's defiant expression was clearly visible to everyone. Faced with the young master's questioning, Su Bai could only say that this was a case of intellectual superiority.
"Since I haven't left this golden house, young master, shouldn't we fulfill our contract?"
"Hehe, what does Lord Su Bai want to know?"
The young master slumped to the ground, his face expressionless, as if he had already resigned himself to his fate. It was unclear whether he already knew his death was imminent.
"I don't have many questions I want to know. The first question is, why are you Fools collecting the Heart of God? First the Heart of the Wind God, and now you've set your sights on the Rock King. What are your motives?"
"Your Excellency Su Bai is indeed meticulous, but I cannot answer this question for you; I do not know either."
"do not know?"
Su Bai raised an eyebrow. He thought the young master was lying. The position of the Executor of the Fools was not low. It would not be an exaggeration to say that he was second only to the emperor. Su Bai did not believe that the young master did not know such a thing.
Even though Su Bai showed murderous intent, the young master still acted nonchalantly. In any case, even if Su Bai didn't believe what he said, Su Bai couldn't find any fault with him.
"It seems you have broken our contract, young master."
"Lord Su Bai, please don't talk nonsense. I really don't know. If I did know, I would have told you long ago."
The young master showed a troubled expression, but Su Bai no longer cared whether the young master knew or not. Since the young master was not cooperating, he would just capture another executor next time. In any case, apart from the young master, the Fools still had ten executors on the surface.
"Don't worry, young master. I've learned some skills at the Hall of Rebirth. Although I can't send people off to their final rest, I do know some basic preservation techniques."
"You don't need to worry about your body rotting in this hot weather, so go in peace."
Having said that, Su Bai charged toward the young master with his one-handed sword. People like the young master are only good when they die. The young master knew that he was completely doomed this time. Watching Su Bai approach, the young master gritted his teeth and endured the pain in his chest as he pulled out one after another of the Unrestricted Talismans from his pocket.
"The Unrestricted Talisman? Young Master, what are you planning to do?"
"Hahaha, you didn't expect that, did you? I have this trump card."
The young master wore a sickly smile as he activated one Unrestricted Talisman after another. Although these Unrestricted Talismans were not made by immortals, the aura emanating from them made Su Bai frown, because these Unrestricted Talismans seemed to be able to break some seals.
“Young master, we can actually have a good talk. If you put down the Hundred Taboos Talisman in your hand, I can let you go.”
"You think you can just let me go by putting down the Unbound Talisman? It's too late. The Unbound Talisman has already been activated. Since I can't survive, it's not a bad idea to make everyone in Liyue Harbor perish with me."
As soon as the young master finished speaking, Su Bai's narrowed fox eyes suddenly widened. It was true that the Unrestricted Talisman could break the seal on the immortal's cave, but it seemed that these Unrestricted Talismans could also break the seals on the suppressed demon gods. Did the young master mean that he wanted to break the seals on the demon gods suppressed by the Rock King Emperor?
"No, we can't let the young master continue like this."
Realizing the seriousness of the situation, Su Bai unleashed his full power of immortal energy, slashing at the young master in an attempt to deplete the power contained within the Unfettered Talisman.
But the young master had already realized this problem. He surrounded himself with a portion of the Unrestricted Talisman to block Su Bai's attack, while continuously activating other Unrestricted Talismans.
The single-handed sword, imbued with Su Bai's immortal power, struck the surface, producing a crisp sound. Although the Hundred Taboos Talismans were noticeably dimmed, they were still activated. A golden light shot into the sky, and in an instant, dark clouds gathered, signaling an impending storm.
"This is really troublesome."

Chapter 166 The Battle Inside the Golden House (5)
Inside Liyue Harbor, the debate between Liu Yun and Keqing had reached a critical moment. Both were trying to persuade the other. Seeing that Liu Yun seemed to be going on and on, Xiao and the others exchanged glances and decided to interrupt their conversation.
Normally, the immortals would have been quite interested in watching the two argue, but now that they had felt the power of the Unrestricted Talisman, they feared that if they didn't stop, it would delay the Emperor's plans.
“Liyue has grown under our protection for a thousand years. Liuyun, it’s time to let go of Liyue and hand it over to the Daoists.”
True Lord of Water and Mountain Refinement spoke up to remind True Lord of Cloud and Wind Retention, who then noticed the power of the Unfettered Talisman in the distance and snorted coldly.
"Hmph, I wonder if these ordinary people can manage Liyue."
