"I'm referring to the most powerful immortal in Liyue... Lin Zixuan. He's not a good choice of enemy! He just used four clones of Funina to defeat me and Leosli."

"After Xumi, the battlefield between Liyue and the Kingdom of Winter has moved to Fontaine. We have no choice but to stand on the side of the Fatui now."

"I think as long as we can deal with the prophecy, it doesn't matter which side we stand on. What about those low-lying areas in Baisong Town? Navia wants to approve a piece of land. Is there room for maneuver?"

“It’s difficult. Although I am the highest judge of Fontaine, there are still many powers in Fontaine that are not in my hands. The nobles left over from the time of Fucarus are more cunning than the others.

Especially for this kind of land issue, if Navia had a title, she could still do something about it. But she is just a commoner...if she is given land, the nobles will definitely boycott it."

"Is it feasible to let the 'Duke' Leosley sacrifice himself and incorporate Baisong Town into his territory?"

"It's impossible. Leosli's foundation is too shallow. He got the title of 'Duke' at the cost of a lot of sacrifices. His territory is actually Melo Petersburg. It's basically impossible to get another piece of land outside."

"It seems like we can only put it on hold for now. Aren't the laws of Fontaine a bit too weird? As a god, Funina has no rights at all? She is restricted in every way? For example, no one is allowed to fly flying objects in the Fontaine district during the first three days of each month. I don't know who came up with such weird laws."

"Uh...it was Furninna who proposed it." said Navelette.

"......" Clorinde was speechless.

Gray River Navia residence.

"Miss, there's news coming back from our secret agent in Momang Palace." Silver rushed over to report.

"What news?" Navia was calculating the assets of the Rose Thorn Society.

"The goddess Funina did not mention anything about the young lady, so it is unlikely that anyone will find any evidence against her. Another thing is that it is said that the Kingdom of Winter will soon come to Fontaine with a large amount of disaster relief supplies."

"Relief supplies? Don't be too happy too soon. It's still unclear whether these relief supplies can reach us.

If they transported the supplies directly to our towns, there might be some hope. If they gave the relief supplies to the nobles and asked them to distribute them...

The nobles exploited us at every level. If we had two out of ten truckloads of supplies, we would be lucky. The nobles only needed to push out one or two scapegoats to perfectly eat up these disaster relief supplies.

Even if we investigate after the incident, these scapegoats will surely behave themselves and reveal the location of the supplies. At most, we can only trace five trucks of supplies, and three of them will surely be missing.

This kind of minor matter will only take a year or two in prison in Mellow Petersburg and you'll be released. It's not a big deal.

No matter how fair the law is, it cannot stop people’s greedy hearts.”

"The young lady has grown a lot!" exclaimed Servant Silver.

"Marcelle had bad intentions. He taught me all the knowledge on how to escape the punishment of the Fontaine law. He was waiting for me to follow his knowledge one day, so that he could catch me and send me to the opera house for trial.

Fu Nina...didn't she mention the relocation of Baisong Town?"

"No! Maybe she thought that the supplies from the Kingdom of Winter would be enough."

"Stupid. A second flood that affects the entire Fontaine is almost equivalent to mobilizing the entire country. The supplies from the Winter Kingdom alone are simply a drop in the bucket." Navia said angrily.

"Miss, are you a little too nervous? No one knows how high the water will rise the second time, and there is also the fantastic thing that people will dissolve." Silver felt that Navia was very impatient recently.

Navia calmed down, stood up and looked out the window.

"Silver...I actually asked Master Xuan privately about the prediction of the second flood. What if Master Xuan said: The highest water level of the second flood will submerge Mo Mang Palace?"

"Flooding the Momang Palace? Doesn't that mean it's higher than the walls of Fontaine? Then the people in Baisong Town and Huihe..."

"The young and strong people in Baisong Town who can swim will survive. The old, the disabled, and the children will all die. Those who cannot escape from the Gray River...will all be wiped out.

In ten minutes, all the water that has risen to the Momang Palace must disappear. Not only the Fontaine, but the entire Fontaine must be made to disappear. Do you think Fu Nina can do it now? Not to mention the time required for the initial rise of the water.

Funina only had 5 minutes, or even less than 5 minutes. If the water level rose for more than ten minutes, it would be enough to kill half of the population of Fontaine.

Is she capable of solving such a disaster now?"

"Didn't she give all her power to the Cardinal of Enlightenment? Can't she take it back?"

"It's useless to take it back. Even Master Xuan can't guarantee that he can save everyone in Fengdan. Can her backing be stronger than Master Xuan? Have you ever heard of a being stronger than Master Xuan? Will he lend a helping hand to Fengdan?"

"......" Silver shook his head.

"We are now on the edge of a cliff. If we take a step back, there will be no return. I really want to escape. If I can escape to Liyue, I can have a new life and a new beginning.

But I don't want to regret it for the rest of my life. I will find a way to save the people of the Rose Thorn Society and Fontaine."

"Miss, we are already being watched by many people. If we do something out of line again, it will be very troublesome."

"Indeed. I must act in a different capacity."

Navia took two steps back and forth, picked up her phone and dialed a number.

"I need a mask that can change my appearance. Can you lend it to me?"

Lin Zixuan, who was far away in Liyue Harbor, scratched his head while holding the phone. His mind was not on Navia and he didn't know what had happened.

"Sure, sure. Just remember to return it to me after you use it. What are you going to do?"

"I want to save Fontaine by using another identity."

"Another identity?"

"Well, the new identity name is: Joan of Arc." Navia said.

"Oh??? Interesting, this is really interesting, I will prepare all the props for you. Let me see how far you can go?" Lin Zixuan never thought that Navia would make such a decision.

"Is there any way for me to use the water elemental power?"

"Water elemental power? Sure."

The call ended and Navia breathed a sigh of relief.

"Miss, what did Master Xuan say?"

"He will help me."

"That's great."

Lin Zixuan put down the phone and thought for a while. One side wanted to use the power of God to save the Fontaine people, while the other side wanted to use the power of the Fontaine people themselves to save the Fontaine people. What kind of story will these two people with different paths to the same destination start?

Chapter 420: The Second Act of Xumi Officially Begins

Tomb of the Red King.

"We have been exploring here for three full days. How big is the Red King's Tomb?" Paimeng complained.

"Go on, we've almost finished the exploration." Falushan looked at the notebook in her hand.

During these three days, everyone not only had to deal with high-intensity battles, but also had to deal with various puzzles, mechanisms and traps, which also made them mentally tired.

After repelling the invisible mechanism once again, everyone chose to take a break.

"If it's not here yet, we may have taken the wrong road." Falushan spread out the notebook for everyone to see.

"This is where we are. We originally thought that the solar boat was placed in the deepest part of the tomb. According to the size of the space, the last position may not be able to accommodate the boat, unless the boat is very small."

Falushan circled out three roads leading to the outside of the Red King's Mausoleum.

"The location of the solar boat...is likely outside the tomb."

"Outside the mausoleum!!! Then wouldn't it be like we've wasted three days?" Paimeng said in surprise.

"I told Elhaisen this morning that they are exploring these three directions separately. There are fewer guards outside the mausoleum, so they should be able to handle it alone."

'Beep, beep, beep'

"It's Kavi's number!" Falusan answered the call. "Yes, we'll be there right away."

"Kavi found the Sun Boat. It's in the lower left corner of the Red King's Mausoleum. He also found... uh, Master Xuan."

"Eh? Is the big bad guy here too?"

Everyone hurried to the location of the solar boat.

Two hours later.

"We're finally here. My legs are almost numb from running." Paimon complained.

"Paimeng, you are flying, didn't Falusan give you the 'Light Steps' state?" Lin Zixuan walked up to Paimeng and rubbed her face when she was not paying attention. "The chubby cheeks feel really good."

Paimeng struggled to escape from Lin Zixuan's clutches and hid behind Ying. "Ying, he bullied me, go beat him up!"

After exchanging greetings with everyone.

"Master Xuan, why are you here?" Candice asked.

"I'm here to find the truth."

"the truth?"

“That’s very important to me, and it can be summed up in three words: Who am I?”

??? A string of question marks popped up in everyone’s heads.

"Don't think too much. Do you feel safe with me protecting you?"

"It does make me feel relieved, but I don't know what bad ideas you are up to." Paimon popped up and complained.

"Okay, okay, let's wait for the little auspicious grass king to arrive and see if there is a place to insert the key on this boat." Falushan said.

"I just checked it. There is a place to insert the key, but I'm not sure if it can be started. The entire hull of the ship looks like a work from the Red King era, but I found that this ship doesn't use technology from the forbidden knowledge, but more like technology from the White Night Country."

"White Night Kingdom? Are there any other countries besides the Seven Kingdoms?" Candice asked.

"It seems that there is a record in the documents of Xumi. Where did you see it?" Elhaisen also began to recall.

"Bai Ye Kingdom was the former kingdom of Inazuma Umi Island. A powerful person from Sky Island bestowed this precious technology on them, but they ruined themselves, causing the technology to be lost. The various patterns on this ship are very similar to those in Bai Ye Kingdom." Lin Zixuan explained.

"According to the priests' records, the Red King seemed to have once lived on the Sky Island. If he wants to go back to the Sky Island, does he need a means of transportation?" Candice asked doubtfully.

"Does this mean that this ship is an extremely rare and precious ship that can reach Sky Island?" Paimon asked in surprise.

"Once it starts, we'll know whether it can go to Sky Island." Lin Zixuan also looked at this special ship again.

Soon, Nashida and Seno also arrived here. Seno had gone out to the anchor point to receive Nashida. Lin Zixuan divined this action and gradually became embarrassed.

Ying inserted the special "Key of Royal Law" into a mechanism on the ship, and the transparent screen gradually lit up.

"It's started?" Everyone was delighted.

Lin Zixuan walked forward and reversed the direction of the "Key of King's Law", shutting down the start of the ship.

Everyone looked at Lin Zixuan, wondering why he did this.

Seeing this, Lin Zixuan said, "This trip is extremely risky. I may not be able to protect you completely. I think it would be better for you to write a suicide note first, or choose to stay here and wait for us to come back."

"Don't worry! We will come back alive." Paimon said.

"Shut up!" Lin Zixuan looked at Paimeng sharply, causing Paimeng to shrink behind Ying. "Some words cannot be said easily. These words that make people feel at ease will eventually lead them to a desperate ending. How can you guarantee that they can come back alive?

Ying and Senor had already died once because of Nashida's word "chase". I can't guarantee that I can protect them completely, can you? The hooded man's strength is unfathomable. Once we are separated, there will be no time to rescue us.

I like your innocence and cuteness, but that doesn't mean that innocence and cuteness won't cause any mistakes. Sometimes, the lethality caused by words is more hateful than direct murder.

you......"

Before Lin Zixuan could finish his words, Nashida pulled him aside and asked him to calm down first.

"Ying..." Paimon looked at Ying with tears in his eyes.

"Okay! Okay! Let's apologize to him later! The risk of this trip is indeed too great." Ying touched Paimeng's little head.

Lin Zixuan sighed and walked over again. "Sorry, I lost my composure a little."

"It's okay, you're also thinking about our safety." Ying said hurriedly, pulling Paimeng who was hiding behind him with his right hand.

"I'm sorry!" Paimon floated out from behind Ying and said.

"A good child is one who admits his mistakes and corrects them." Lin Zixuan took the opportunity to rub Paimeng's little head.

"So, has anyone decided to stay?"

"Let's stay here, father and daughter. If we get trapped after going in, we won't be able to help." Gabriel said, holding his daughter Jade's hand.

"I'd better stay here too. I haven't entered the 'Combination' stage yet, and I'm not a professional who specializes in combat, so my role in the future will be limited." Kavi also said.

"Let's count the number of people. There are Elhaisen, Senor, Candice, Dishia, Falushan, Ying and Paimon. There are also Master Xuan and I. A total of nine people are heading to an unknown destination." Nashida said.

"Write the suicide note and give it to Kavi for safekeeping. I have predicted this trip again, and the result is still 'Kan', which you can understand as 'very bad luck'." Lin Zixuan looked at the result shown by the hexagram in his hand and let eight pieces of paper and pen float in front of them.

"Very bad..." Everyone's face turned dark. The divinations made by god-level people all showed very bad omen, which could be said to be a one-way ticket.

Looking at Lin Zixuan's serious expression, everyone knew that this was not a joke, so they took the paper and pen and started writing a suicide note.

"Ying, who should we send it to?" Paimon scratched his head.

"Send it to people you know? Like Klee and Captain Qin?" Ying said.
