I'm in the Teyvat running group

The cyan strips away "time and space," stripping away all traces left in time and space, making it impossible to travel through or jump through time in any form.

Blue strips away the "concept," dissolving all concept-based defenses and effects.

Purple strips away the "definition," erasing all definitions, attributes, and racial characteristics that define existence.

"Ruling: Singularity anchored!"

Seven nails form a huge mark that envelops the clown. Every attack that follows will inevitably hit, will inevitably take effect, will inevitably trigger, and will inevitably reach its maximum effect!

The clown was unable to move, so Yunxiu gently patted Kong's shoulder, looked at him, and smiled, "Go."

Kong nodded, walked to Ying's side, and sighed softly.

"fluorescent……"

The sound of emptiness was very faint, like an echo coming from the air.

"Are you ready?"

Ying didn't answer, but simply reached out her hand, grasped the empty palm, and took a step forward.

This is the first time in five hundred years that we've traveled from Mondstadt to Liyue, from Inazuma to Sumeru, from Fontaine to Nata, and now to the foot of this mountain—all in one step.

She turned her head to look at Kong's profile.

"Brother, together."

The twins each drew their longswords and, one in front and one behind, thrust them directly at the clown's body!

Black flames shot into the sky from the empty sword, and the immense power of the void reflected seven rays of light on its blade. The terrifying power shone on the faces of everyone present, but this power of the void was gentle and seemingly non-corrosive. However, it was the rage and humiliation of the past five hundred years. The shadows of the five great sinners, Kanria, the Destroyer, the Black King, and the Abyss Order appeared on the sword, finally ready to be unleashed at this moment!

Even if it's only a part.

Ying then picked up a completely different sword, the one she and her brother used when they wandered the starry sea. Seven kinds of light constantly bloomed and rotated on the sword, which was the meaning of the journey: the freedom of Mondstadt, the contract of Liyue, the eternity of Inazuma, the wisdom of Sumeru, the justice of Fontaine, the war of Nata, and the fire of winter!

Seven powers, seven tenets!

A tremendous force came from the fighter jet in the air. Black sword light shot into the sky, and seven-colored sword light traversed the void. The two sword lights converged into a cross and instantly struck the clown!

"The final blow!"

"The Twins' Return!"

A terrifying force sliced ​​a cross-shaped wound into the clown's body. There was no blood, no bone, and no internal organs in the wound; only endless light poured out.

His mouth was open, and the expression on his face began to contort infinitely, but he couldn't utter a sound.

“Devouring his status, brother.” Ying looked at Kong, smiling quietly. “I know you possess the power of the ‘Loom,’ this is what he should return to us.”

Kong didn't speak, but simply nodded quietly. Threads spread out from his body and entered the clown's body. Streams of light flowed into his body along the threads, and a strange object appeared behind him—the true "Loom of Destiny." As for its completion, it was finally about to weave the ley lines of the earth, and he had now become Kong's weapon of revenge.

Threads converged on the loom, while the clown's body shattered into dust like a sand sculpture, and with a gust of wind, it completely vanished in the center of the battlefield.

Kong stood there, stunned, overwhelmed by immense pain. Five hundred years had passed, and this was only part of the revenge. When would this revenge finally come to an end?

Ying gently stepped forward, hugged Kong's body, and pulled her brother into her arms.

Without a word or any further movement, the two stood there quietly.

"Brother...do you want to continue?" Ying asked softly. She knew Kong's answer, but if she didn't ask, she was afraid that Kong would leave again without saying a word.

"Ying... everything will eventually end, and we'll have our time to live together someday." Kong patted Ying's shoulder, trying to soften his expression: "Live well with Yunxiu and make yourself happy."

He patted Ying's head, gently released his hands, smiled at Yunxiu who was walking forward, and placed Ying's hand in Yunxiu's hand.

Yunxiu nodded without saying anything.

Kong looked at True Monarch Xieyue Zhuyang. With a flick of his finger, the True Monarch dispelled the mirror space. With a wave of his hand, a door to the abyss opened. He turned and walked towards the small door that connected to the unknown.

Ying stood still, quietly watching her brother leave. After a long while, she gently sat down.

With a wave of his hand, Xiaoyue teleported the group directly to Baisong Town, the agreed-upon place for post-battle rest, where Xiangling and the others were already waiting.

"Xiuxiu, Ying!" Xiangling ran up and gently picked up the two of them, leading them to a table of food.

Welcome home.

Chapter 403 Leisurely Tea Talk and Listening to Cloud Shadows

Afternoons in Baisong Town are always warm and comfortable.

Just as Yunxiu, lying in front of Navia's house, felt, this kind of leisure and comfort is something that is hard to enjoy most of the time. No wonder Navia likes to be here; it is indeed a very comfortable place.

Xiaoyue left after dinner last night. According to him, he had some new ideas to go back to cultivate, and the Tai Academy classes would be starting soon. Yunxiu didn't expect that this old deer would be addicted to classes, but it could be considered a good thing for both the Tai Academy and himself.

Navelette also left last night. According to the Fontaine News this morning, the Grand Inquisitor has begun to speed up the trials, seemingly to make up for the work he missed over the past few days.

Although Yunxiu felt that Vilet didn't need to be in such a hurry, the Water Dragon King was always so serious and earnest, and this time was no exception.

As for Skok... after killing the clown, she took the clown's remnant artifact from Ilmin and left. After thinking about the remaining three items, Skok gave two to the Water Dragon King and the last pocket watch to Xiaoyue for him to study. This was considered her reward for killing the clown. As for Yunxiu herself, Skok said that the previous debts were naturally wiped clean, and she also owed a promise.

This girl was always elusive, and Yunxiu didn't really care what she was doing. After all, if she had any trouble, it would definitely require a lot of people to solve, just like this time, so there was no need to worry.

Ying stayed behind and went to Fengdan City with Xiangling and a few others to stroll around and have fun. It was a rare few days of relaxation for the warrior, which was a rest after a battle. Yunxiu completely understood, especially since Xiangling and Xiaogong Hutao were with her and she didn't have to do anything. She really didn't like going out...

After happily finishing two bottles of the new flavored soda, Yunxiu took out her Lingjing terminal and browsed through all the recent messages.

I've been incredibly busy lately, and I haven't even had much time to read comics, let alone relax. After resting in Fontainebleau for a while, I have to go with Tsukihime to find the Four Sacred Treasures. This is a rare moment of relaxation for me.

The Wind Flower Festival was basically over, but what was rare was that the gods did not leave Mondstadt. Instead, they stayed behind as if they were discussing something. Yunxiu asked Frinna and the Emperor, and both of them said that there was nothing major, just some trade and trivial matters between various countries, which were not a big problem.

As for killing the clown, it was indeed a huge deal, but everyone tacitly suppressed it.

The strangest part of this whole affair is that, although he is indeed a master, everyone has a responsibility to cover it up. There are many people in Zhidong Kingdom who are dissatisfied with the clown, far beyond the Queen's control. And the clown himself is certainly not clean either, otherwise he wouldn't have stayed out of Zhidong for so long.

Furthermore, the Queen did indeed obtain the Heart of God—if the Dragon King had given the Heart of God to the Queen after the Clown's death, she now possesses all seven Hearts of God.

Everyone tacitly let the matter drop.

The most painful thing about this is naturally the Fools. The organization can now be said to have completely fallen apart. Only two people are still in office, namely the Rooster and the Rich Man. The original sixth seat, Yuijin Harunosuke, has recently returned to Inazuma. The reason is very simple: his old friends, Hakutatsu and Yurakusai, have returned, so he has also returned to Inazuma and properly returned to Inazuma's life.

Tsukihime treated this man very well because it was he who succeeded her, allowing her to leave Shifu smoothly. However, now that the Fatui Clan is in disarray, it seems there's no need for anyone to take his place...

Although Columbia is nominally still part of Winter, since she has neither "defected" nor "transferred," she has almost always stayed in Nordkale and does not participate in anything of the Fools. She spends her days among the Frostmoon Children and then goes to the Lunar Force Laboratory to participate in Sandone's experiments.

It is said that they have already made some progress in "lunar marrow", which may be useful when they return in March.

The immigration work in Nordkalai is basically halfway done. Most of the Frostmoon Children's clans have migrated to Liyue, and the Luna Force Laboratory has also been moved to the sea area near Liyue. The people of Liyue are quite curious about this huge fortress, so after it was opened to the public and tickets were sold, it quickly became one of the attractions in the Cloud Sea.

For Sandoni and Colombia, there were both advantages and disadvantages.

The advantage is that the income has increased significantly, the experimental research and development progress is quite fast, and it has not affected the scientific research progress too much, since only the outer layer is open.

The downside is that Columbia runs around taking photos with people everywhere, causing quite a bit of trouble. If it weren't for the priests of the Frostmoon Children constantly cleaning up the mess, who knows what might have happened.

Fischl's game has been released, and it has to be said that the princess's game development skills and Diona's design ability are quite good. The frustration and complexity of tabletop role-playing games are perfectly resolved by Diona's cute art style and card art. It became incredibly popular in the entire Spirit Realm as soon as it was released, which scared Fischl so much that she immediately sought help from Yanfei.

Finally, Yan Fei personally stepped in to help coordinate some of the spiritual realm mechanisms, ensuring the smooth progress of the game and preventing it from being quickly overwhelmed by the surging crowd.

Within three days of its launch, Sugar had essentially recouped its ten million Mora investment. However, the subsequent operations were ultimately taken over by Yanfei's team. It's fair to say that none of the three—Fischl, Sugar, and Diona—could muster a single person capable of properly managing the operation.

But the result was still good.

These guys are supposedly coming to Fontaine in a few days to promote their products, and they'll be looking for Yunxiu then. But they've gone to Liyue now, so they'll probably come all the way from Sumeru.

After quickly reviewing all the recent events, Yunxiu took a rare break on this Fontainebleau afternoon. The rare afternoon, the rare sunshine, and the rare warmth were something no one could resist.

"Try some of my freshly baked macarons. I tried adding some Liyue ingredients, so they should suit your taste even better." A blonde figure walked over gently with a plate and placed it next to Yunxiu. On the plate were six fragrant macarons and two cups of tea, but Yunxiu had specially replaced them with iced soft drinks.

"It's rare that you would consider Liyue's tastes. Can these two be combined?" Yunxiu picked up a pale pink macaron and took a bite.

The outer layer had a slight spiciness, but the texture itself was quite pleasant. Combined with the slightly tart cream filling, the fresh taste delighted Yunxiu. She finished one in a few bites, took a big gulp of her drink, and exhaled contentedly: "It's really good... This one has a touch of Yunnan chili pepper, and the cream filling has raspberries?"

"Oh, right!" Navia smiled and handed Yunxiu another piece: "Try this one too, it's my new creation, it has meat filling!"

"The one with meat filling is called a roujiamo..." Yunxiu complained while quickly finishing the piece. Although it did have the feel of a roujiamo, it was still very delicious.

The last piece was a sweet and cloying flavor characteristic of Fontainebleau, which Yunxiu liked. However, Navia's skill level was as excellent as ever. In terms of making pastries, she was no worse than Xiangling. The two could be said to be on par.

If we're just talking about the quality of the desserts, the only one who could surpass Navia's would probably be the chef at the Grand Hotel Debord, Aikofi. However, the hotel is now called the Grand Hotel Fukalos because when Yunxiu came to Fontaine to look for Funina, she bought the Grand Hotel Debord and the Steambird Newspaper.

Steambird Newspaper didn't change its name, but it can almost be said that it has been incorporated into the Spirit Realm and become a department of the Spirit Realm, which can be considered a proper ending.

"But why didn't you go shopping with Ying and the others today?" Yunxiu asked lazily, sipping her soda while savoring the taste of the macarons. "Being with girls must be fun, right? I don't really like shopping... Oh right, you really don't like shopping."

"No, it's because I told Xiangling I was coming to keep you company today, since I found out what you did yesterday." Navia was quite happy to see Yunxiu quickly finish the macarons she had baked. She looked at Yunxiu and said with a smile, "You don't know, the Clown also tried to test and plot against our Rose Society quite a bit. Many people in Teyvat will thank you for killing him, including us, of course."

“I could have thought of that, but… it’s remarkable that you’ve managed to carry the Rose Society through so many years.” Yunxiu pulled Navia over as well, stroked her long, golden hair, and sighed, “Although the Rose Society is different now than before, operating in a completely new way, I can still imagine how hard you worked back then.”

"It wasn't too hard, but before you came to the Rose Society, I actually thought about contacting you."

"Oh?"

"Because I heard that you have a lot of girls around you and that you treat them very well, I was thinking that it would be great if you could help me too... So when you came to me for help, I was of course very happy."

"Is it because I'm happy that I'll owe someone a favor?"

“Not entirely. Actually, I think it’s quite interesting that a strong person like you would have such an encounter with me.” Navia gently lay down. She was a true Fontainebleau beauty, much more womanly than Funina, but still retaining a girlish innocence: “Later, you gave me the Kiss of Time and helped me resurrect my parents. I don’t know how to thank you enough.”

Yunxiu didn't say anything, but simply hugged Navia closer to her.

He did these things without any ulterior motives. Helping Navia was initially driven more by personal reasons, since resurrecting anyone was no different. However, because of his relationship with Navia, Carles and Clementine naturally became the first on the resurrection list, and as for giving the Kiss of Time, everyone around him received one.

He knew how important these things were to these girls, so naturally he didn't refuse.

Every girl around him is a treasure to him, and he has always tried his best to love each and every one of them.

Of course, it's possible that he was simply lustful at first, but that's just his nature.

A chance encounter, a unique feeling, and the concentrated sunshine and atmosphere of afternoon tea in Fontainebleau—this is the essence of romance in this romantic city.

Just like a macaron, which is slightly sweet and needs tea to bring out its aftertaste, who can resist its aroma?

The sunlight in Baisong Town shone quietly on the two of them.

Chapter 404 Shadow Walks Towards the Moon, Sees the Jade Sound

Surprisingly, Yunxiu actually stayed in Fontainebleau for more than a month without encountering any earth-shattering events or any messy incidents involving the Fool and the Queen.

There were no strange monsters or villains, and things were progressing in an orderly manner. There weren't many things that required his personal attention, and the few that did come up were usually resolved quickly.

Two weeks later, the official announcement finally came: the Fatui commander, "The Clown," had gone missing while on a mission, and the official couldn't even confirm whether he was alive or dead. However, this wasn't unusual for the Fatui; ​​mutual abandonment and betrayal within the organization were nothing new, it was just that this time the member held a higher position.

The Empress has ordered the "Rooster" to reorganize the Fools, re-select executives and commanders of some key positions, and then began to close her doors to guests. Yunxiu was well aware of this, because the Empress had obtained the seven Hearts of God and was most likely researching how to surpass or obtain this position.
