Genshin Impact: The Road to Reversal

Chapter 354 Chaos

"He...just left like that?" Karen murmured as she stood there.

Mo Yan looked around with a complicated expression: "It seems that he really has no intention of attacking us."

In the distance, the thunder of Minghuang was still raging, but the number of undead had clearly decreased. However, his performance had become noticeably more impatient.

"Tsk, this is endless!"

He gritted his teeth, held the lightning in his hand and struck the ground fiercely. In an instant, a dazzling white light burst out.

"White Night·Thunder!"

The violent lightning swept across the entire undead realm like an angry dragon, and the remaining skeleton army was completely shattered. However, before he could catch his breath, more monsters broke out of the ground.

"Tsk, damn it!"

At this moment, Kailin stood there, looking at Minghuang who was in a tough battle, and she felt a pang of regret.

"Well, should we help that uncle?" She turned to look at Mo Yan, her tone sounding a little embarrassed.

Hearing this, Mo Yan sighed angrily: "Let's go. If something really happens, we will all be implicated."

After saying that, the two turned around and joined the battlefield.

Perhaps because the Undead Army was controlled by the Phantom, they ignored the attacks of the two and continued to target Minghuang alone.

Kailin's dagger slashed across the skull of a skeleton, but the bone monster didn't even turn its head, and continued to pounce on Minghuang stubbornly.

Seeing this, she frowned and shouted, "Hey! You skeletons, look over here!"

Mo Yan cut off three skeletons with one sword, but was still ignored by the undead.

In the distance, Minghuang's breathing had become heavier. His entire body was drenched in sweat, and the lightning wasn't as bright as it had been at first. But the number of undead didn't decrease at all; instead, it continued to grow.

"Damn it, I can never finish fighting..." He gritted his teeth, then adjusted his breathing slightly and prepared to launch the next round of attack.

At this moment, the space suddenly trembled violently, and the skeleton army that had been making crazy "cackling" sounds suddenly turned into broken bones and scattered on the ground. Then, the space began to collapse, and at a speed visible to the naked eye, the original sky was revealed.

Kailin stumbled and was nearly thrown to the ground by the sudden spatial distortion. Mo Yan quickly caught her: "Hey, be careful!"

However, Kailin didn't care and continued to look at the collapsing space.

"Space is collapsing. In other words..."

"Well, the Phantom has escaped from everyone's sight." Mo Yan nodded.

Minghuang knelt on one knee, his scimitar dug deep into the ground to support himself. He panted heavily, his white hair sticking to his face with sweat, but he still gritted his teeth and showed an expression of unwillingness to admit defeat: "Tsk, did you let that kid get away?"

At this time, Kailin tiptoed to Minghuang.

"Um...are you okay..." She stood beside Minghuang, her eyes wandering, and her index fingers poking at each other from time to time, like a child who had done something wrong.

Minghuang raised his head, a lingering flash of lightning still lingering in his golden pupils. "Don't worry, this level of skill won't defeat me."

Mo Yan stood aside, scanning his entire body, then put one hand on his waist and said, "If you hadn't seen how embarrassed you were, I would have almost believed it."

"Tsk, I'm just conserving my strength, you know? How can I, 'Flashing Thunder', use all my strength to deal with these minnows?" He crossed his arms, and in the eyes of outsiders, he clearly had a stubborn attitude.

Hearing this, Mo Yan's pupils widened in shock: "Are you 'Shan Ting'? The one who's in charge of monitoring us?"

Minghuang just smiled and didn't answer.

At this moment, Kailin, who was standing beside her, put her hands behind her back and hesitated again: "Um, I'm really sorry this time..."

"Huh?" Minghuang was stunned. He stared at Kailin for a few seconds, then burst out laughing. "Pfft, did I hear correctly? A certain kind-hearted person actually took the initiative to admit his mistake."

Kailin's face flushed crimson instantly, and she stamped her feet angrily: "Of course it's true, after all, I was the one who made the mistake first. Anyway..."

Before he could finish his words, Minghuang waved his hand and interrupted, "Alright, alright, there's no need to tell me all this. It's already happened, and there's no way to undo it. I also know you did it out of ignorance, but next time, I suggest you learn from your friend and not trust others so easily. Haven't you heard the ancient saying of Linhui, 'To be kind to others is to be cruel to yourself,' especially in this situation?"

As he spoke, he brushed off the dust stuck to his body by sweat. Then he deliberately patted Mo Yan's shoulder and walked past.

"Forget it this time, but brother, I personally sincerely hope that you can keep your (girlfriend) in check and at least don't cause us any more trouble before the brigade retreats."

Mo Yan put one hand on his waist and sighed angrily: "I'll do my best."

"Well, then I'll take my leave."

After saying that, Minghuang left without looking back.

"Oh, right." Kailin exclaimed, "Speaking of which, what's your name?"

"Just call me Minghuang, or you can call me by my given name like everyone else." Minghuang waved his hand gently.

……

"Hey, are you back from your walk?"

Back at the inn, Ye Lan was still sitting at the counter. When she saw the two of them return, she greeted them with a smile.

"Um, yes, if everything is fine, we'll go back first..." Karen responded with an awkward smile and waved, then turned towards the room without looking back.

When she returned to the room, she collapsed on the bed instantly.

"call……"

"Karin...what happened?" Zixuan asked from the side.

Mo Yan then told everyone everything he had seen and heard since leaving. A moment later, the room fell into a dead silence. Zi Xuan's fingers unconsciously twisted the corners of her clothes, Zhao Heng's brows knitted together, and Tian Lang rubbed his chin thoughtfully.

"So, that phantom is the final holder of the Fallen Angel element, right?" Zhao Heng asked.

"That's right." Mo Yan nodded, "But he doesn't seem to be hostile towards us."

"I can only say that it was Kailin's kindness that saved you from disaster." Tianlang smiled. "After hearing what you just said, I'm really eager to meet that person called Phantom."

"Don't worry, there are plenty of opportunities. Thanks to someone's kindness, he may be walking around the city with his head held high." Mo Yan said sarcastically with his hands folded.

After hearing this, perhaps because she was too tired, Kailin no longer had the heart to argue with him.

"Okay, stop implying to me. Instead of wasting time thinking about what to do next..." There was a rare hint of fatigue in her tone.

Hearing this, Tianlang folded his arms and acted as if it didn't matter. "I think there's no need to think too much about it. Since Linglang and the Four Extremes have already taken action, why don't we just leave it alone?"

"Ah? Do you know what you're talking about?" Tianlang's words instantly froze the air in the room. Kailin suddenly jumped up from the bed, her eyes wide open.
