Chapter 229 Return to Xumi
Chapter 229 Return to Xumi
Jiang Xun spent a long period of time slacking off, but fortunately it was quite effective in recovering his mental body. After these days of recuperation (and sleeping soundly), his mental damage has almost recovered.
After completely absorbing the power of Sky Island brought back by the spiritual body, Jiang Xun's abilities skyrocketed again, and the constraints between heaven and earth were reduced a lot again. This gave Jiang Xun a very intuitive feeling.
It was equivalent to the energy contained in five Frost Sky Nails. After absorbing it, Jiang Xun felt that the shackles that were hindering him had become dilapidated, as if they would break at any time. And until the day when the shackles broke, it would be the time for him to step into a new realm.
Jiang Xun is now looking forward to that day more and more. During his recovery period, Jiang Xun even returned to the boundary between life and death, wondering if he could enter that mysterious place again.
But Jiang Xun was clearly ready to fight with that woman again, but the other party did not give him the opportunity. He found that he could no longer enter that space.
However, those souls were still able to enter the border gate normally. This could only mean one thing, that is, he was blocked. Perhaps the other party remembered his breath and refused his entry again.
However, Jiang Xun was not too disappointed. After all, if she didn't take any measures, he should be more suspicious.
Jiang Xun lay in the rocking chair, enjoying the afternoon sunshine. Although he had been sleeping and recovering most of the time these days, he did not stay in one place all the time. He visited the immortals of Liyue everywhere.
During one of his visits to visit Master Liuyun Jiefeng, he also met Ganyu, and this situation seemed to have triggered the crane's big mouth program.
As the few of them were chatting, Master Liuyun Jiefeng began to talk about the great reputation that Ganyu had when she was a child, who was known as the Master Who Choked Monsters to Death. Although Jiang Xun had known about this for a long time, it was still a different experience to hear the person involved tell it again.
Ganyu just sat aside the whole time, her face as red as a monkey's butt, and she didn't say a word. However, Zhenjun Liuyunjiefeng might not know that because of her behavior, it would be many years before he would see Ganyu again.
Jiang Xun was basking in the sun with his eyes closed, but suddenly he felt a darkness in front of his eyes. Was the sunlight blocked?
Jiang Xun slowly opened his eyes, and what came into view was Jiang Ruoli's pretty face.
"The face is too close."
Jiang Xun said calmly, stretching out his hand to move the other person's face to the side.
Although the other person had the subtle fragrance of glass lily, Jiang Xun wanted to bask in the sun more at this moment.
Jiang Ruoli grabbed Jiang Xun's wrist, with no expression on her face. Then she asked with some dissatisfaction, "Old Jiang, did you sneak out to play by yourself?"
Jiang Ruoli looked like she was going to call Jiang Xun to task, as if Jiang Xun had done something unforgivable.
"No."
Jiang Xun shook his head. He had been recuperating in Liyue. How could he have the time to go out and play?
"Then why did you appear in the desert area of Xumi?"
Jiang Xun frowned when he heard this: "How did you know?"
Jiang Ruoli then put the newspaper in her hand into Jiang Xun's hand. This was a newspaper published by Steambird News, and there was an extremely blurry photo on the headline.
The person in the photo exudes a dark aura all over his body. Perhaps it is because the person taking the photo did not dare to get too close, or because of the environment, it is impossible to take a close-up photo, so the photo is very blurry.
But Jiang Xun could tell at a glance that the person in the picture looked exactly like him, but he had never left Liyue, so who could this person be?
"This person is not me."
After returning the newspaper to Jiang Ruoli, Jiang Xun continued to lie down.
"Yeah, that's right. Although the guy in the picture looks exactly like you from behind, the power he carries gives people a very bad feeling. It's probably not you."
Jiang Ruoli thought about it carefully and found that something was wrong. She simply regarded it as a gimmick created by the group of reporters in Fontaine to gain publicity.
However, Jiang Xun did not let the matter go.
He was very familiar with that power, which came from the abyss. He had basically never shown it to others, so few people knew that he had such ability.
But the person in the picture is obviously using the power of the abyss.
A figure that looks exactly like himself and can use the power of the abyss...no matter how you think about it, things can't be simple.
Jiang Xun stood up, put away the recliner, and then asked Jiang Ruoli beside him: "Do you have anything else to prepare?"
"What preparation?"
"I'm getting ready to leave, don't you want to come with me?"
Jiang Xun's words immediately caused a drastic change in Jiang Ruoli's mood.
"Are we finally leaving? Let's go now!"
Seeing her like this, there was probably nothing that needed to be prepared. Jiang Xun then tidied up the yard, locked the door and left.
"Right, where are we going?"
Jiang Xun walked slowly in front. When he heard Jiang Ruoli's question, he simply replied, "Xumei, I think the newspaper just now is a bit interesting. I plan to take a look."
"Hey, don't you think this is just hype from those reporters?"
"Maybe, but what if it's not?"
"Forget it, as long as I can get out!"
Jiang Ruoli had always been well protected by Gui Zhong. It’s not that she had not left Liyue before, but she was never alone when she went out.
The reason why she chose to go out with Jiang Xun was because she understood his character. A guy who liked to slack off more than herself would naturally not control her everywhere.
More importantly, when Gui Zhong gets angry, she can bring Jiang Xun out to ward off disaster.
Hmm? Why do I feel like I've been tricked?
After a while, Jiang Xun returned to Xumi again, but this time was much more interesting than the first time he came to Xumi, because there was one more person by his side.
Especially the clear stupidity revealed in Jiang Ruoli's eyes made Jiang Xun couldn't help laughing.
Since Nashida came back to power, everything in Xumi has been developing in a good direction. At least when passing through the forest, there are no longer a few gilded brigades or treasure-stealing groups popping up from time to time to commit robbery like last time.
"stop!"
Well, I didn't say anything...
Jiang Ruoli's interest in continuing to watch was also dampened by the angry shout that came from nowhere.
After a while, footsteps were heard from all directions, and then there was a lot of movement in the grass.
Then a dozen forest rangers walked out slowly, holding weapons in their hands, pointing at Jiang Xun.
"Damn demon, destroying our home isn't enough, now you're trafficking in human beings?!"
The leading young man with brown skin shouted angrily while gritting his teeth.
Jiang Xun:?
