Chapter 1280 The Fourth Film Conference
"Something interesting?" Extreme Evil Knight waved his hand dismissively, saying with a self-deprecating laugh:
"What else could be interesting? It's nothing more than conquering some disobedient world and destroying a few civilizations that resisted me. Life is incredibly boring."
"I came back this time because I know there is a formidable opponent, and I'm ready to have a good match with him."
Istaru and Ronava, standing to the side, looked at the bizarre scene before them with extremely complicated expressions.
The originally serious meeting of the four film studios was suddenly interrupted by two uninvited guests, one of whom was Shao Yun, the "potential danger" they had been arguing about.
The other was a remnant of the Kanria, the powerful Extreme Evil Knights, who were actually old acquaintances of Rhinedoth, which completely disrupted their original plans.
Watching the Extreme Evil Knight and Rhein-Dort chatting animatedly, treating the place like a teahouse for reminiscing, and glancing at the cold-faced Ishtar and Ronava beside him, Shao Yun secretly began to make his own plans.
Since Extreme Evil Rider has old acquaintances to chat with, shouldn't I also take a break from my busy schedule and chat with the other two?
His gaze swept over the two of them, and he quickly ruled out Ishtar.
After all, after he blew up the Wind God as if it were a slime, the Time Ruler looked at him with eyes that seemed to freeze over. Going up to talk to him now would only be asking for trouble.
Finally, he targeted the relatively "easy-to-talk-to" Jonawa, approached her, and greeted her:
"Um, Miss Death Ruler, how are you? Long time no see, how have you been?"
Ronawa didn't give him a friendly look either. She crossed her arms and stared coldly at Shao Yun.
"So, you've broken our previous agreement and started causing trouble in Teyvat?"
In her view, Shao Yun's fight with the Evil Riders in this place clearly violated the previous agreement to "behave themselves and restrain the Descendants".
Shao Yun hadn't expected Ronawa to immediately label him a "troublemaker," and his initial desire to chat vanished instantly. He immediately launched into a tirade of curses:
"Are all those big eyes of yours just for farting? Can't you see I'm in the middle of a life-or-death battle with him! If he hadn't ambushed me, would I be in such a sorry state?"
"Is this what you call causing trouble? Can't you tell right from wrong? If you don't have eyes, you can donate them to Miss Glory in Mondstadt... No, that girl doesn't need your eyes now that her eyes are healed."
"Besides, your eyes are practically blind, so she can't use them even if you donate them!"
Rona was stunned by Shao Yun's scolding. What was this guy babbling about?
But she still understood the words "life-or-death battle" from Chloe, and then said thoughtfully:
"Really? When I saw you two fighting, I thought you were just sparring. I didn't expect it to be a fight to the death."
Upon hearing this, Shao Yun's good mood vanished completely, and he retorted sarcastically, "Oh ho! By the way, I haven't settled accounts with you yet!"
"How exactly did you manage Teyvat? You actually let that freak, the Dark Knight, who could destroy the world, go back! If he really destroys Teyvat, you, the Regent of the Dead, won't get away with it either!"
Seeing that Shao Yun was blaming her, and her expression remained cold, Ronawa still patiently explained:
"Asmodeus has disappeared. I am the ruler of death, mainly in charge of the order of death, and my perception of space is inherently poor."
"I don't know how this remnant of Kanria smuggled himself back. I only just learned of his existence."
"Who? Asmodeus?" Shao Yun's expression froze, and he subconsciously asked.
Just as Shao Yun was distracted by the questioning, the extremely vicious knight who had been catching up with Rheindorf suddenly paused.
He then snapped out of his daze, abruptly interrupting Shao Yun's conversation, and roared sharply, "Don't be half-hearted during battle!"
Before he finished speaking, the extremely evil rider suddenly drew a giant sword, raised his arm, and with the force of splitting mountains and shattering the earth, slashed down fiercely towards Shao Yun's head!
The moment Shao Yun heard the sound, he sensed danger and quickly dodged to the side, narrowly avoiding the giant sword's attack.
With a deafening roar, the giant sword slammed heavily onto the ground, instantly creating a massive crack in the floor of the mysterious space, making the space even more unstable.
Shao Yun lay on the ground, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead with lingering fear, and said urgently to Ronawa, "I'll talk to you after I've dealt with this madman!"
"I should be saying that to Rheindorf!" The Extreme Knight gave Shao Yun no chance to breathe. He abruptly sheathed his greatsword and then unleashed a move called "Bull Charge," crashing into Shao Yun with his hard armored body like a runaway beast!
Shao Yun had no time to dodge and was struck squarely in the chest by the Extreme Evil Rider. He instantly felt his blood surge and was sent flying backward like a kite with a broken string.
The extremely vicious rider then used the momentum to crash into the already broken crack in the spatial barrier, carrying Shao Yun with him.
With a "crack," the already fragile spatial barrier collapsed completely, and the two figures instantly disappeared into the mysterious space, leaving behind only spatial fragments flying everywhere.
……
After Shao Yun and the Extreme Evil Riders completely disappeared into the spatial rift, the remaining battle energy in the mysterious space gradually dissipated, leaving only countless fragments of space fluttering down.
Jonathan's gaze was the first to leave the direction where the crack disappeared, and instead turned to Rheindorf, who stood calmly to the side.
“Miss Rheindorf, I think you need to explain this.”
She was clearly suspicious of Rhinedoth's familiarity with the Evil Knights, and even suspected that the Evil Knights' successful infiltration of Teyvat was somehow related to Rhinedoth.
After all, among the three rulers, only Rhinedoth and the Extreme Knights had prior acquaintances, and such a coincidence inevitably makes people think.
Rhein-Dort couldn't help but chuckle as he looked at Jonathan, who was interrogating a criminal.
She raised her right index finger and gently tapped it on her chin, teasingly saying:
"No way, Ronawa? You don't actually suspect that I opened the Teyvat border for Surtroch and let him in, do you? You're giving me way too much credit."
Then, she shrugged and continued to explain:
“I do know him, but since the Cataclysm of Kanria, when I merged with Miss Nabelis and became the Regent of Teyvat, I haven’t been in contact with him at all.”
"I only found out about his return just now, just like you. It has nothing to do with me."
Ishtar watched as the topic veered off course, from "how to deal with Shao Yun" to "questioning Rhein-Dörgården," and she grew impatient.
The silver time energy around her fluctuated again, attempting to steer the conversation back on track.
"Shouldn't we be talking about Shao Yun now? He poses a far greater threat to Teyvat than any other threat. We must decide as soon as possible whether to use the 'Celestial Spike'!"
In her view, Shao Yun is the biggest hidden danger at present, and the extremely evil rider is just an accidental variable. There is no need to waste too much time on this matter.
However, Ronawa disagreed. She was clearly still fixated on the matter of the Evil Knights and retorted, "I think that remnant of Kanria, the Evil Knights, deserves our attention more."
"He has now returned with the power to destroy the world. If he is not eliminated as soon as possible, he will bring annihilation to Teyvat sooner or later. He is a more pressing threat than Shao Yun!"
“Urgent?” Istaru roared fiercely upon hearing this.
"I'm not exaggerating when I say that this Demon King named 'Shao Yun' is far more terrifying than Kanria! Kanria's rebellion could still be suppressed, but the power that Shao Yun wields is so great that even the laws of nature cannot withstand it!"
"You actually think the Extreme Evil Knight is more important now? Are you letting your personal emotions cloud your judgment? Is it because the power he wields is the same as yours, and you're tempted?"
Seeing that Ishtar was starting to twist the truth, Jonawa gave her a cold glance and said, "Don't settle personal scores. What business is it of anyone else if your underlings are less skilled?"
"In contrast, the danger of the Evil Knights is already obvious. I think this meeting should become a meeting to clean up the remnants of the Kanria and to prioritize the formulation of relevant plans."
"You're utterly unreasonable!" Ishtar trembled with rage, silver time energy churning violently around her.
“You’re too stubborn!” Ronawa retorted without backing down, her dark red energy surging as well.
The two were once again embroiled in a heated argument, arguing about everything from the threats of the extremely vicious cavalry to Shao Yun's stance, and then to the differences in their respective governing philosophies, their voices growing louder and louder.
Meanwhile, Rheindorf stood aside with his arms crossed, watching the two arguing with great interest, clearly enjoying the spectacle.
"They're arguing again. It's like this every meeting. It's never going to end..."
