This heroine is so despicable

"Why are you still thinking about smuggling? It seems like you've been thinking about it since we met. Aren't you too persistent in thinking about your original intention?"

"Paimon, this time is different from Liyue and Mondstadt!"

Xing said excitedly.

"These two countries are neighbors, and their trade is already well developed, but Inazuma... Inazuma is now in a state of isolation! And the distance is far - and I can easily bring goods from several warehouses! The transportation cost is even close to zero! And the efficiency is a thousand times faster!"

After hearing this, Paimon also reacted, and even with her little head, she realized how much profit there was.

"Well... it seems so? Traveler! This sounds like an opportunity! Why don't we buy some popular items first, and then... hehehe... maybe we will have endless Mora in the future! Then, we can eat whatever we want!"

Beidou didn't know Xing and Ying's abilities yet, and didn't understand anything for a moment. After the two of them performed some tricks of making something out of nothing for her, she was shocked.

"Hiss... doesn't that mean..."

"Yes, in theory, Xing alone can handle all the commercial trade between the two countries."

Ningguang said.

"And just as she said, while the efficiency is increased a thousand times, the cost is infinitely zero, and the farther the two countries are from each other, the more this advantage grows exponentially."

Ningguang raised her cup and took a sip of tea. She squinted her eyes and didn't say what she really wanted to say:

Such a method of rapid inflow and outflow of bulk commodities - combined with the coinage rights controlled by Liyue, as long as it is well planned... its power is enough to paralyze a country's economy.

She smiled at Xing who was still looking smug.

This kid...sometimes he does have a very high vision, but at a time like this, he is surprisingly slow and has no idea of ​​the destructive power he possesses.

"Oh, doesn't that mean... our Southern Cross Fleet might be out of work in the future?"

Listening to Ningguang's words, Beidou couldn't help but touch his head.

After all, the biggest source of income for maritime merchants is freight. Although the cost is already very low compared to land transportation, it is obviously still not enough compared to Bixing's capabilities.

"Uh……"

Xing, who was originally enjoying being the biggest smuggler in Teyvat, suddenly realized that by doing this, he seemed to have destroyed the jobs of countless people, and he calmed down all of a sudden.

"Actually... not really. The most I can do is make one or two bucks, right? After all, I'm not really interested in being a heartless transporting machine. What's the point of Mora? As long as it's enough, it's fine..."

As I said, if Xing really needs money, he might as well hug Estelle's thighs and lick them hard.

[Are you after the rich woman's money? You are simply greedy for her body, right? ]

Ningguang nodded and reminded casually:

"Besides... rashly importing a large amount of goods into a relatively closed economic environment may cause a lot of negative effects..."

Beidou recalled Inazuma's situation and immediately stroked his chin:

"Speaking of which, you may be able to make a lot of money in other places, but as for Inazuma... the business there - especially foreign trade, is basically controlled by the Kanjo Bugyo."

"Even if we have countless goods to bring, we still have to rely on them in the end. Otherwise, if we bypass them and sell them privately, it will really be considered smuggling. Those greedy guys will definitely not let it go when they see that someone has cut off their source of income."

Xing was immediately furious:

"What? We came all the way here and we still have to see what they think?"

[Then wouldn't we be begging on our knees? ]

Beidou shrugged helplessly:

"There's nothing we can do. We have to close our doors to the outside world. Although Inazuma is an island nation, it has no problem being self-sufficient. Foreign goods are now luxury goods to ordinary civilians. If foreign merchants want to sell to us, they have to get through the Kanjo Bugyo and have them resell them."

[Isn't this a typical comprador? Although he seems to be one of the three magistrates under Inazuma, it is not surprising that such a guy will sell out the interests of the country in the future according to his inertia.]

"But...it's not a bad idea to make some money."

Ningguang said.

"Later, I'll prepare a batch of hot-selling goods for you and Ying. Just give me the cost price afterwards, and you can take the profit."

Ying suddenly felt a little embarrassed:

"Isn't this... a bit..."

Xing naturally didn't think there was anything wrong with it, and immediately hugged Ying:

"Well, just accept Ningguang's kindness. This amount of money may be a lot for an individual, but it's just a small investment for Ningguang~"

After finishing their meal happily, they returned to the competition venue and waited for the final to begin.

During this time, other friends that Xing and Ying met in Liyue also came to visit them. Hu Tao sang Qiuqiu Ballad and strolled over with Qiqi in her arms, expressing regret that there were no accidental casualties in this martial arts competition.

Soon after, Ye Lan also came with Shen He. The former reported something to Ning Guang in private, and then joked to Xing:

"I bet a lot of money on you. If you lose, I'm afraid I'll go bankrupt."

"Speaking of which, what are my odds now?"

"One to one and a half. Apparently, everyone thinks the hero who can defeat Osel has a better chance of winning."

Xing sighed immediately. She was clearly trying to hold back.

"Forget it, don't worry, you will win."

Ye Lan shrugged:

"Anyway, I wish you victory in advance, Star Sea King~"

Ok……

It is worth mentioning that - under Xing's strong suggestion, every future champion of the martial arts competition will be given the title of "Sea King".

Ningguang, Beidou and others thought there was nothing wrong with Xing's sudden idea. After all, Liyue was a country with developed maritime trade, and its culture was full of elements related to conquering the ocean.

Of course, in a sense, Xing believes that he is also a true "Sea King" who does not need to be crowned...

As more and more spectators arrived around the stadium, the Qianyan Army began to maintain order, and soon the game began under the attention of everyone.

The player from Xumi's Gilded Brigade is definitely a warrior with rich combat experience. Compared with ordinary Liyue warriors, his moves are more fierce and deadly, and he even has a posture of exchanging injuries for lives.

Unfortunately, facing the absolutely dominant Xing, the opponent was defeated after a difficult battle.

Exhausted, he half-knelt on the ground, gasping for breath, looking at Xing who was calm, and waved his hand to indicate defeat - he could see that the person in front of him was here purely to experience the "mortal martial arts".

Fortunately, the prize for second place was also considerable, so he happily accepted the prize.

After Xing took the jade token handed over by Beidou amid cheers, she grasped the hand of Beidou who was presenting the award to her and looked at her with fiery eyes:

"I heard that Sister Beidou is also known as the Uncrowned Dragon King of Liyue... I wonder if today... I can have the honor of witnessing the true power of the Dragon King?"

Because Beidou was still holding Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun's loudspeaker at this time, the audience who had not yet dispersed could hear her words, and the atmosphere seemed to change for a moment.

Beidou looked at Xing in confusion, then seemed to mistake the burning look in his eyes for a desire to fight, and immediately burst into laughter.

"Okay! To be honest, being the host is really fun, but...how can it compare to being on stage in person?"

She also held Xing's hand:

"I missed the battle at Osel, but I regretted it for a long time, so... I have long wanted to see your true strength! So..."

The Big Dipper holds high the hand of the star:

"Let's have an extra play-off!"

Ningguang watched this scene in the audience, listened to the excited cheers of the audience around her, smiled helplessly and sighed, signaling the staff to do as they said.

Soon, one of Beidou's crew members brought over her Black Rock Slasher, and Xing also put away her baseball bat and replaced it with her own flame spear.

"Since this is a play-off, there is no need to worry about whether or not to use elemental power. Sister Beidou, please show me your power to destroy the sea and mountains~"

Beidou raised the dark red Black Rock Slashing Blade and nodded:

"Of course! I have a feeling that unless I use my full strength, I won't be able to hurt you at all... So..."

She slammed the sword down, and a flash of lightning suddenly flashed on the extremely tough sword. Then, two thunder dragons rose up beside Beidou and surrounded her. The whole person was wrapped in a faintly visible purple shield.

"Please be careful, Xing!"

It is rumored that Sister Beidou has challenged a sea monster named Haishan many times. The last battle lasted for four full days. Haishan, with his four legs tied, still fought hard. People were wary of Haishan's invasion and dared not sleep all night.

Until Sister Beidou, who had been standing on the bow listening to the sound of wind and waves, jumped high from the bow at the moment the sun rose, and with one blow, she broke through the clouds and the moon, like mountains and seas, and completely cut off Haishan's head.

It is said that it was at that moment, accompanied by thunder in the sky, a ray of purple lightning descended from the sky, condensed in front of the blood-soaked Beidou, and turned into her own Eye of God.

How powerful, how beautiful!

Such flowers should be planted by her...

Xing suppressed her excitement - this... was exactly the scene she had always longed for, and... she wanted to see more!

"Then... let's get started!"

Volume 159: The End of the Immortal Body, the World and the Human World: Big Dipper Star (Part )

The collision of fire and thunder instantly caused a violent explosion and shock wave on the field.

This fight filled with light and flame effects was not on the same level as the previous fights that did not use elemental power, and the atmosphere on the scene was immediately aroused. The audience all felt that he was worthy of being the pioneer who could defeat Osel and the uncrowned dragon king who could destroy the sea and mountains.

There were also fanatical fans of the two who excitedly shouted strange things like "It's worth it even if I die to witness such an intense fight."

But although the two seemed to be fighting evenly, Xing was actually in firm control of the situation.

Compared with previous opponents, Beidou's martial arts are more powerful, like a tide, one wave after another, and he is undoubtedly better at dealing with large enemies or group battles.

But what really made Xing feel a little bit troublesome was Beidou's "flying knife".

It was a superb skill that used elemental forces - Beidou could always block and rebound Xing's attacks at the right time, and then launch a thunderous counterattack, as if all of Xing's attacks were accumulating energy for her to counterattack.

[I...seem to remember this move...or rather, I have used it before - in the midst of the storm of attacks from those disgusting enemies, I steadily received those attacks, constantly accumulated and suppressed them...then saw through them at the right time, and finally exploded completely at that moment to gain victory]

It’s just… this time it seems like Sister Beidou is using this trick against us…

[It seems so... but it's still a little bit off]

It was indeed a little bit short - it was simple, Beidou-jie's attack... was almost impossible to break through the shield that she could continuously add to herself.

In fact, Xing was still holding back - he could have charged forward with the Flame Lance earlier, but this was just a sparring match after all, and she was the one who felt sorry for hurting Sister Beidou.

Therefore, Xing seemed to be fighting back and forth with Beidou. The burning spear tip kept colliding with the big sword flashing with lightning. The clinking sounds, flying sparks and lightning elements made the audience subconsciously hold their breath.

Finally, with a roar from Beidou, she once again blocked Xing's flaming spear sweep, and a swift slash with unprecedented dazzling lightning struck Xing hard, and the two thunder dragons bit her like living things.

This attack even made a large number of spectators around close their eyes subconsciously, and those who were close to it felt a gust of wind blowing towards them.

But... with the end of this shocking blow, the purple shield on Beidou's body also dimmed.

Upon seeing this, Xing quickly extinguished his flaming spear, slapped away the lightning that was lingering around him, and stepped back a few steps to signal that the battle was over:

"Oh, it seems we have reached our limit. As expected of Sister Beidou..."

Seeing Xing looking a little exhausted, Beidou was slightly stunned, then stared at her with wide eyes, and finally sighed and smiled bitterly:

"I didn't expect this blow to be so... Hey, there's no need to give me face. If I lose, then..."

"Oh alright alright! Now that the fight is over, it's time to celebrate!"

Xing put away his flaming spear, rushed forward and hugged Beidou, suppressing her words. Then he waved to the audience and pulled Beidou off the stage.

It wasn't until they reached the backstage that Beidou had the chance to speak:

"I say... in the fight just now, I didn't even allow you to use your full strength, right? Why did you insist on pretending to be a draw with me?"

"Of course, if Sister Beidou, the Uncrowned Dragon King, loses like this, I'm really worried that she will secretly cry alone after returning to the ship. Woo woo woo, so pitiful~"

Beidou, who was originally a little depressed, was amused by Xing:

"How is this possible? Am I so fragile in your eyes?"

"Then consider it as me trying to maintain the value of the title of Uncrowned Dragon King~"

Xing moved closer to Beidou and put a finger on her lips:

"Anyway...Since I lost in battle, Beidou-sister, let's win back somewhere else. How about that? Are you confident?"

"Oh?"

Beidou suddenly became interested.

"That's what you said. You're going to Inazuma next, right? We'll have many opportunities to spar with each other along the way! Don't blame me for bullying you when the time comes!"

Xing nodded with a smile:

"Then... let's wait and see, Sister Beidou~"
