Genshin Impact: Learning makes me stronger

Chapter 367 The Mysterious Little Girl

Just when everyone was about to breathe a sigh of relief, the seal suddenly emitted an intense light, and then a powerful force burst out from the seal, shocking everyone back.

"What's going on?" Ganyu exclaimed.

Lishui Dieshan Zhenjun's face was solemn: "I'm afraid there is a power hidden under this seal that we don't know about. The reinforcement just now only suppressed it temporarily."

At this time, Gui Zhong suddenly said: "I seem to feel a familiar breath, this power..."

Before she could finish, a black shadow jumped out of the seal and flew away.

"Chase!" Xianyun said without hesitation, and everyone followed.

Gui Zhong's eyes moved slightly, but he did not move to chase after him.

The black shadow was moving rapidly in front, as if intentionally luring everyone, and its speed was always kept within their reach.

This made everyone feel very surprised. You know, they are all immortals. The black shadow can control the distance between them so accurately. The strength should not be underestimated!

The crowd chased after him, passing through the mountains and forests of Liyue, crossing the river, and finally came to a desolate valley.

"Who are you? Why do you want to destroy the seal of the Fulong Tree?" Xianyun took a step forward, his eyes as fast as lightning, fixed on the black shadow in front of him.

This mysterious being was surrounded by black air and his face could not be seen clearly.

He turned around and sneered at everyone, his tone full of resentment: "Seal? Haha...hahaha! This thing shouldn't exist!"

"Who are you?" Ganyu frowned, with a hint of anger in her voice, "The seal of the Fulong Tree is related to the safety of Liyue. Don't you know the consequences of doing this?"

Hearing this, the black shadow just looked at everyone with cold eyes and stopped talking.

Seeing the black shadow's attitude, everyone looked a little confused.

The other party led them here but did not take any action. No one knew what he was planning.

Xianyun frowned and said impatiently: "Since you don't want to reveal your identity, we can only find the answer ourselves."

After she finished speaking, she raised her right hand with her five fingers slightly spread out, and a powerful immortal power surged out from her palm and attacked the black shadow.

Seeing this, the black shadow did not avoid it at all, but watched calmly as Xianyun's magical power grabbed his body.

What surprised everyone was that as Xianyun's immortal power tightened, the black shadow did not resist at all, but dissipated like smoke.

"Not good! Could it be a plot to lure the tiger away from the mountain?!" Zhenjun Xueyue Zhuyang exclaimed, and everyone's face suddenly changed. Realizing that the situation was not good, they quickly turned around and rushed back.

When they returned to the Fulong tree, they found Gui Zhong standing under the tree, looking deeply in a certain direction, as if he was thinking about something.

"Gui Zhong?" Xianyun was slightly stunned. Apparently she just realized that Gui Zhong did not go with everyone to chase the black shadow.

Gui Zhong smiled slightly when he saw everyone. Just as he was about to tell them about his recent discovery, Zhenjun Lishui Dieshan and Zhenjun Xueyue Zhuyang exclaimed in surprise.

"What?! Guizhong? You are Guizhong?"

Gui Zhong nodded gently and said, "It's me. Long time no see. Li Shui, Xiao Yue."

Lishui Dieshan Zhenjun looked incredulous: "You have already...how could this be?"

No wonder they felt familiar with Gui Zhong when they first saw him, but couldn’t remember who he was for a moment. It turned out to be the Demon God of Dust from that year!

But wasn't Gui Zhong already dead? They had seen her die with their own eyes when her divine power was exhausted and she turned into dust.

Gui Zhong sighed and said, "This is a long story. I will tell you in detail when I have the chance. Let me first talk about the seal of the Fulong Tree."

Xianyun said solemnly, "It seems that the black shadow is trying to lead us away. I wonder what its purpose is."

"When that black shadow suddenly appeared and led you away just now, I felt something was wrong, so I stayed here and continued to observe." Gui Zhong said.

"So what did you find?" Ping asked.

She was not surprised. Guizhong was known for his wisdom, so it was reasonable for him to do such a thing.

Gui Zhong smiled softly, "Just as I expected, after you left, another person jumped out of the seal and fled in a certain direction."

"Why didn't you stop him..." Xianyun said with a frown.

"I tried to stop him, but I failed." Gui Zhong blinked her beautiful eyes and said innocently.

“……”Everyone was speechless for a moment.

"You really didn't stop it, but you didn't want to stop it?" Xianyun looked suspicious.

Gui Zhong rolled his eyes at Xian Yun and said unhappily, "Please, I just resurrected, my soul and strength haven't fully recovered yet, how can I compare to my peak state? That person is too fast, I can't stop him."

Lishui Dieshan Zhenjun said in a deep voice: "Guizhong, did you recognize who that person was? Or did you notice any clues?"

"That person looks like a little girl..." Gui Zhong looked a little strange.

"Little girl?" Everyone looked surprised.

Gui Zhong nodded slightly and continued, "And this little girl exudes a strange aura that makes me feel very familiar."

She paused, then looked at everyone and asked, "By the way, I haven't asked yet, who is sealed under this Fulong tree? Why does he have such a powerful force and a familiar aura?"

Zhenjun Lishui Dieshan and Zhenjun Xueyue Zhuyang looked at each other, and there was a heavy look in their eyes.

Lishui Dieshan Zhenjun slowly said: "The one sealed under this Fulong tree is Ruotu Dragon King."

Gui Zhong was startled, "Ruo Tuo?"

She frowned slightly and asked in confusion: "Isn't Ruota a comrade of Morax? Why is he sealed here?"

Lishui Dieshan Zhenjun sighed and said, "It's a long story. Back then, the Ruotu Dragon King was resentful because humans over-mined the ore and destroyed his territory. He gradually lost his mind due to wear and tear, and eventually went to war with the Emperor. The Emperor remembered their old friendship, so after defeating him, he sealed him under the Fulong Tree."

Gui Zhong suddenly realized, and his expression became more solemn: "So that's how it is. No wonder this breath makes me feel familiar. What is the relationship between the little girl who just escaped and Ruo Tuo?"

Xianyun shook his head: "It is still unknown at the moment, but this matter is probably not simple."

Ganyu said worriedly: "If the Dragon King breaks free from his seal, it will bring great disaster to Liyue."

Ah Ping nodded: "We must find that little girl as soon as possible and find out the truth of the matter, just in case."

Shen He said: "Then where should we start looking now?"

Everyone fell into deep thought.

At this moment, a green light descended from the sky and transformed into a handsome young man holding a Hepu Kite.
