I'm in the Teyvat running group

After sending Yoomiya back to Hanamizaka, Yunxiu and the others returned to the magistrate's office to rest. After a series of adventures and various major events, today could be considered a day of rest.

Of course, these were perhaps the few days of leisure he had enjoyed most.

Chapter 141 Assassination and Counterattack! (Second update on Thursday!)

In the following days, Yunxiu indeed had an incredibly easy time.

Every day, Xiaogong cooks with Xiangling and explores various new alchemical spells with Sugar. Unexpectedly, he becomes good friends with Shenhe.

Although it's unclear how these two, one active and the other quiet, ended up playing together, Yunxiu always found them tinkering with fireworks together, and Shenhe even took the initiative to help Xiaogong increase the explosive power.

Could it be that deep down she's actually a girl who craves excitement?

It doesn't seem like it...

Yunxiu shook her head, but the reason was actually very simple: Shen He genuinely liked these things.

Both Xieyue Zhuyang Zhenjun and Xianyun can be considered masters of array formations and mechanical arts. Xianyun, in particular, is likely to be among the top ten in Teyvat in terms of mechanical arts, including the Red King and his group.

Shen He, having been exposed to it from a young age, naturally became quite interested in these hands-on activities. She just didn't like to talk about them much, but in fact, judging from her ability to serve as Xianyun's assistant...

Their skill level is definitely not bad.

As for why they can get along so well, the reason is actually surprisingly simple: Shen He is a person who doesn't like to talk, but she likes to listen to others.

Xiaogong is someone who doesn't care much about feedback; he just wants to make his point clear!

And so the two of them happily became partners in developing fireworks, and Shen He also found his new job.

However, Yunxiu didn't think too much about it, after all, it was like the meat rotting in the pot...

A little over a week passed slowly like this. Finally, on the afternoon of the ninth day, Yunxiu received a message from the magistrate of the guild: the current head of the "Secret Archives" had finally arrived in Inazuma.

As for where to meet...

The man arranged an unexpected meeting place, a mansion near the island's pier, and stipulated that Yunxiu could only bring one attendant at most.

"It does look a bit like a trap..." Yunxiu touched her hand and said, "But I don't really care..."

The person in charge of this "Secret House," who could perhaps be called the proprietress, Nefer, is not really a villain.

At least in Yunxiu's mind, most of the people she wanted to kill were indeed guilty of their own faults. Although in this life, the desert people of Xumi were absorbed into the Order Academy, and the situation in Xumi was very different from that in the previous life.

But as Yunxiu said in the first volume, most of these humans with the eyes of God are the "chosen ones" of this world, which directly leads to one point.

In the long river of fate, they are more like reefs, letting themselves be washed away, and their fate does not change much!

Therefore, Nefer still became the person in charge of the "Secret House".

Diluc is also one of her subordinates, and is in charge of the entire Mondstadt region.

After some thought, Yunxiu decided to take Shenhe with her. Xiangling and Sugar were still a bit weak, and Xiaogong wasn't much stronger.

In particular, Yunxiu was able to see from the panel that Xiaogong had started to awaken her third constellation in the past few days, which was most likely because the gains from this adventure and the Hyakki Yagyō (Night Parade of One Hundred Demons) with her were not small.

As for Ayaka Kamisato...

Her identity is so shocking that the Kansei Magistrate and the Secret Bureau will likely have their eyes on her the moment they discover that Ayaka Kamisato has appeared on the island, especially now during this turbulent time.

So Yunxiu talked to Shenhe about it, and she agreed without any hesitation.

"I wonder what kind of person this proprietress is in this life..."

-----------------

The next morning, Yunxiu took Shenhe on the road to the outlying island.

To be on the safe side, the two did not fly, but instead traveled by carriage to the entrance to the island.

After getting off the bus, walk less than 300 meters ahead to reach the outlying islands. This can be considered the "territory" of the Kancho Magistrate. At least on the outlying islands, the powers of the Sha Magistrate and the Tenryo Magistrate can hardly extend here.

But the moment Yunxiu stepped onto the island, a sudden change occurred!

Ding!

Shen He suddenly turned around and pinned Xi Zai behind him against Yun Xiu's side. A sword that appeared out of nowhere pierced Xi Zai's spear shaft!

"This is……"

Before Shen He could continue, a large amount of magical light suddenly rushed in from all directions!

Yunxiu sneered, reached out with her left hand, and pulled Shen He directly into her demiplane. A large amount of magical energy directly hit Yunxiu's [Automatic Spell Counterattack], but it turned into pure ripples like a mud ox entering the sea, having no effect whatsoever!

When they discovered that the spells were almost ineffective against Yunxiu, a large number of arrows and javelins rained down on her. The closest ones, under the cover of the spells, were already right next to Yunxiu's face!

"Gravity Reversal!"

A magical ripple spread out from the center of Yunxiu, and in an instant, a "gravity field" with a diameter of more than 100 meters was created around it, causing a large number of weapons to fly directly into the air and float uncertainly.

As Yunxiu walked forward, the gravity field actually moved with him. In less than a minute, layers of "arrow clouds" gathered above Yunxiu's head!

He casually tossed all the bows and arrows and javelins aside with a wave of his hand and clapped his hands.

Yunxiu stood there, seemingly deep in thought.

But suddenly two more swords appeared right next to him and pierced through him, leaving large holes in the upper and lower parts of Yunxiu's body!

However, no blood was found in the cave.

Yunxiu smiled slightly and transformed into streams of energy, exploding on the spot and revealing two figures. They were clearly two high-level assassins, one of whom was even wearing the uniform of the Final Fan.

Upon seeing him appear, the two assassins immediately began to twitch their lips, as if they were about to bite their tongues and commit suicide at any moment!

"You have activated the Unfettered Talisman. The spell priority is 14+8+20=42 points. The opponent's Dexterity save failed, and the Imprisonment spell succeeded!"

Yunxiu, who emerged from the spatial portal, shook her head, activated the Unfettered Talisman, and easily used two binding spells to imprison the two assassins before storing them in her storage bag.

But at that moment, countless talismans suddenly appeared from mid-air, tightly enveloping Yunxiu, and then exploded!

Piles of bones and flesh burst out of the talisman, and even the spatial gate was blown to the point of collapse!

A black-robed mage appeared near the talisman. He took off his hat and looked at Yunxiu's mangled flesh with a cold smile.

"Sigh... Why bother?" Another cloud spirit appeared behind the mage who had just thrown out a large number of talismans. He gently placed his hand on the black-robed mage's body, and while the mage was still in shock, he directly released a drop of the ninth-ring level [Tear of Return to the Void].

The mage's body was filled with dense grass and water elemental energy, and before his astonished expression could disappear, the Disintegration spell exploded within him!

Even though it was obvious that he was constantly resisting the power of the Disintegration spell in the last moments of his life, it was impossible for an eighth-ring mage to withstand Yunxiu's powerful spell, which combined a large number of magical theories.

With a simple gust of wind elemental energy, Yunxiu blew away the ashes and leisurely continued on her way to the island.

She had barely taken two steps when a long sword was pressed against Yunxiu's neck. Before Yunxiu could react, the sword spun and Yunxiu's head fell to the ground!

But just as the owner of the knife was about to step forward to check, the head suddenly opened its eyes and jumped onto his body. Immediately, a huge beam of light, which seemed to come from nowhere, pierced through his body and turned him into a pile of bones!

"This [Explosive Jet] is quite powerful, isn't it?"

Another cloud-like peak emerged from the ground, still wearing a very natural smile on its face.

"Speaking of which, two Genshin Impact-level assassins, a mage who has already made some progress on the path to Genshin Impact, and even a warrior who is about to reach the Familiar rank—is it really worth going to such lengths for me?"

"Mr. Yun, you have misunderstood us."

"Oh?"

"If any of our relatives could help us get rid of you, we would be willing. Unfortunately, no one is willing, but it doesn't matter anymore."

"Really? That's great."

"yes……"

A massive array suddenly appeared beneath Yunxiu's feet, bursting forth with tremendous light. A huge amount of energy was concentrated at one point, seemingly about to turn Yunxiu and all his belongings into ashes!

However, when the dust settled, Yunxiu was completely unharmed!

A strange force field wall surrounded his body, which neutralized all the explosions.

"If this is the last resort, you still underestimate me."

"Think carefully about what you've been doing lately! This is just a lesson!"

“A lesson? Let me guess what you’re thinking.” Yunxiu slowly strolled up and down: “Head of the Hiiragi family, you don’t need to deny your identity. You’re making a move on your own turf, and you’re wearing the clothes of the Last Squad. I’m not stupid.”

You've mistaken me for someone else.

"You might think I'd be thinking about the Heavenly Order's direction, but sorry, I don't care whether I'm right or wrong, because you're all my enemies."

"Humph!"

"No need for humphs. The letter from the 'Hall of Secrets' was probably a forgery by you. If you hand over the real letter as soon as possible, I'll have Lord Thor give you a quick death."

"How could Lord Thor possibly listen to a brat like you!"

“I think Lord Thor might actually listen to him.” A figure suddenly appeared beside the mastermind.

Lightning suddenly erupted from her body, binding everyone present tightly. When everyone turned to look at her face, they were all stunned!

"Yue...yue..."

"So that's why I don't like you self-proclaimed smart people." Yunxiu shrugged lightly.

The person who came was none other than Tsukihime, who had just come out of the Pure Land of One Heart!

Yunxiu flashed and instantly appeared in front of Hiiragi Shinsuke, staring at the head of the family, the head of the Kansei-gyō (a high-ranking official in charge of the family affairs), with a playful look. The head of the family looked kind and gentle, like a benevolent old man.

However, in the original work, he was quite ruthless, colluding with the Fatui to open the Evil Eye Factory in Inazuma, using the Eye Hunting Order to expand his power, trying to trap travelers on remote islands, and forcing the Shaman Magistrate and Narukami Taisha to even join forces with Umijima...

As for what needs to be done now, there's even more to do.

His face contorted as he stared at Yunxiu, roaring in bewilderment, "Why? Why did you know we were ambushing you here today! Who leaked the information?!"

"That's a good question, Head of the Hiiragi family. What do you think of the loyalty of your subordinates?" Yunxiu looked at Hiiragi Shinsuke's angry face and decided to tease him first: "Then where do you think this secret was leaked from?"

"It's my eldest daughter, Hiiragi Senri! After she married Kujo Renji, she completely turned into a dove, and every day she talks about maintaining good relations with the magistrate!"

Shinsuke Hiiragi was completely consumed by rage, his roar becoming hoarse: "I should have kept her imprisoned forever!"

“You’ve misunderstood your daughter. Your subordinates are very loyal.” Yunxiu looked at him with pity. “Head of the Hiiragi family, you’ve misunderstood something. I really haven’t been investigating any information, and I have no interest in the infighting between your families.”

"Bullshit! How could anyone truly not care about these interests? Aside from the might of Lord Thor, these are the only things that are eternally contested!"

Shinsuke Hiiragi gave Yunxiu a twisted look: "Besides, don't you also control the magistrate?"

"First, rather than saying I controlled the company magistrate, it would be more accurate to say I gave all the benefits to Ayaka."

Seeing the incredulous look in Hiiragi Shinsuke's eyes, Yunxiu chuckled before uttering her second earth-shattering statement:
