Chapter 882 I'm Going to Start Lying
The simultaneous appearance of the words "new love" and "crisis" made Kong feel doubly embarrassed and tense.
Before he could ask or explain anything, Xu Ning had already grabbed his arm and slipped out of the Hidden Cave.
Only after the two disappeared did Ying, who had seemed calm the whole time, slowly reveal a hint of worry. "How much does he know?"
As soon as Paimon left Xu Ning's place, he unconsciously reached for the stove. Ying's question was clearly directed at Qingyi beside him.
Qingyi curled her lips, "They probably already know what they need to know."
Ying sighed softly, "Then... could you let me out of here when he's not looking...?"
"I still have an unresolved grudge against Heaven's justice. Before that, I need an entire world to contend with Him..."
The woman in green waved her hand dismissively. "Relax. Since Xu Ning has trapped you here, it's because he's also involved in this game. As for the 'world' you mentioned, he'll get it for you. Let's go choose a room first. What style of decoration do you like?"
Outside the Dust-Hidden Cave, Kong Yi saw a bewildered Tyrell circling the Dust-Hidden Gourd as soon as he emerged.
"You're out! You were just talking a moment ago, and then you disappeared in the blink of an eye..."
Kong didn't tell Tyrell that Ying had frozen time in Canria for a moment, but instead took out the hibernation pod key she had found from her pocket.
"Brother, should I... still have Tyrell bring it to Ying?"
Xu Ning reached out and picked up the incredibly high-tech key from his empty hand. "The ending has already been written. Whether you give it to me or not, it won't change the predetermined ending."
"And you should also know that when Tyrell found her, Ying's power had already been completely divided up. She was no match for that person's methods. Rather than perish together, it would be more worthwhile for her to meet you."
Xu Ning placed the key in Tyrell's bewildered hand. "It doesn't matter if you don't understand. Take it and continue your journey. Canria will surely be redeemed, and we will surely meet again in the new world."
Tyrell gripped the key tightly in his hand and nodded emphatically. "I've always believed that."
As soon as he finished speaking, Tyrell's figure faded and disappeared.
Xu Ning clicked her tongue and didn't turn around. "You're really boring. Everyone else hasn't even had a chance to say goodbye yet, and you're already here."
The captain stood with his hands behind his back and said calmly, "Saying goodbye to this person is the same."
Sora finally understood why Tyrell had suddenly disappeared when his older brother and the Hilichurl appeared a few days ago, but reappeared in the cave after the captain took the Hilichurl away.
The timid Hilichurl in front of him, who dared not look him in the eye, was Tyrell.
The captain made some space, allowing Kong to speak to the timid and dodging Hilichurls, while he himself walked over to face Xu Ning.
"Should we start?"
Xu Ning took a sip of wine. "We've been through so much, it's time to wrap things up. Let's say hello to our old friends and get started."
As Nata's multi-day celebration banquet was drawing to a close, and on the eve of many foreign groups that had prepared to offer assistance even packing their bags to return home, Xu Ning appeared at the banquet.
"Happy times always pass too quickly, and it's time to say goodbye again. I believe everyone will bring back the good news of defeating the abyss to their respective gods and people, but I hope that when you go back, you will also bring back some not-so-good news."
A long silence fell over the banquet, and everyone in the hall stopped what they were doing and looked at Xu Ning, who had spoken.
This hall in the arena was specially prepared for important figures from other countries who came to lend a helping hand. Those who could sit here were representatives from various countries who came to provide support, such as the Mondstadt adventure team, the Inazuma priest team, the Sumeru business team, the Fontaine airship team, the Winter Fools team, and the heroes of various tribes who had awakened.
Xu Ning was very satisfied with the complete Teyvat faction information in front of him.
Seeing that everyone's attention had turned to him, Xu Ning said, "The abyssal forces that have been troubling Teyvat seem to have been destroyed. Logically speaking, the only thing we should worry about now is what kind of fun we should find to get through a peaceful and prosperous era without any threats in the long generations to come."
Many people listening to Xu Ning's words exchanged glances with their familiar companions, all understanding the subtext of Xu Ning's words.
The peaceful and prosperous era did not arrive as expected after the abyss of destruction; it seems that some crisis still awaits ahead.
"The Abyss is not Teyvat's most terrifying enemy; it is merely a legion under the command of the Destroyer. The truly despairing 'Destroyer' is silently accumulating power in places we cannot see, brewing its next attack."
The people seated at the banquet below remained completely silent, all pondering the information brought by Xu Ning.
"We can actually make some preparations. After all, through some divination-like methods, we have obtained information about the Destruction Envoy, named Star Howl. It likes to use its immense strength to pull together fragments of stars and cover the civilized world with meteorites falling from the sky. Then, the destructive power emanating from it, similar to the abyss, will naturally engulf the entire world."
People's expressions finally changed.
This method, similar to widespread abyssal contamination, is even more difficult to defend against than an attack by the Abyssal Legion.
Fighting the monsters of the Abyss Legion is already difficult, but at least we have a fighting chance. But how do we defend against and clear the countless meteorites falling from the sky, carrying the aura of the Abyss?
"Like something like a crater rock falling down? I remember your wine could wash away that kind of aura, right?"
Marani of the Flowing Springs suddenly spoke up and asked.
We're just waiting for someone to speak up!
Xu Ning laughed heartily, "Yes, except that meteorites are larger and have a greater impact, they're about the same as abyssal boulders, and my drinks are indeed the nemesis of those things. So..."
So, you should start selling alcohol now, right?
After hearing that there was a solution, everyone present relaxed, but then a feeling of absurdity arose in their minds, as if they had mistakenly entered a large shopping mall and were being tricked into buying alcohol with persuasive words!
"...Therefore, from now on, all the alcoholic beverages under my brand will be provided free of charge and in unlimited quantities to people around the world!"
Free? Unlimited?
Suddenly, the whole place erupted as everyone started discussing the crazy plan to "supply drinks to the entire Teyvat".
Xu Ning did not stop the noise below, but raised his voice and said: "What I ask is that all countries fully cooperate in the transportation of the wine, so that in the shortest possible time, everyone in Teyvat can drink the wine that can resist the abyss aura. Even children will have a supply of pure water for brewing. We must ensure that everyone is covered without any omissions!"
