Chapter 70: After the Battle

At Tianheng Mountain, as Wang Daoyi withdrew from his divine form, the previously boiling and riotous geo elements gradually began to stabilize, and the somewhat abnormal earth veins returned to calm.

It had to be said that the efficiency of the fatui's was really high. Although they had just been affected, they quickly cleaned up the camp, providing a place for the two of them to rest.

In the ruins of the fatui's camp, two exhausted figures lay half-reclined on the mats prepared by the fatui soldiers. Several firefly sorcerers surrounded them, fearing that something might happen to them again.

"You don't have the same aura you had just now!"

Tartaglia glanced at Wang Daoyi, who was lying motionless after Xiao left, and said thoughtfully.

Wang Daoyi ignored him, silently adjusting his breath. When he entered the divine form, he gained not only strength but also the ability to easily accomplish many things that were previously impossible.

The premonition of imminent battle, the rain-like spears, and the final Law of Command: Celestial Star suspended in the sky.

These were all abilities that Wang Daoyi did not originally possess, but after entering the divine posture, he used them naturally.

There was also the external transformation of the divine form. No matter how Wang Daoyi thought about it, it resembled Morax during his time as the White Hood.

"So, is this divine form actually imitating the former Morax?"

A thought flashed through Wang Daoyi's mind.

On the other side, Tartaglia, seeing Wang Daoyi not speaking and not getting angry, continued speaking to himself, "You looked a bit like one of our executives just now. That tone of yours is really annoying!"

Wang Daoyi's face turned red, and under the divine posture, although his other emotions were suppressed, his pride was infinitely magnified. Thinking of those chuuni remarks, he felt an impulse to kill someone to keep them quiet.

"Shut up! Don't make me recall those words again! When I completely control that state, such things won't happen again!"

Wang Daoyi said bitterly, and Tartaglia sensed a hint of resentment in his words.

The two's argument did not affect the surrounding fatui's. Their efficiency in doing things was very high. They knew that the commotion here would definitely attract the attention of the Liyue authorities, so they were urgently destroying some hidden things.

At the foot of Tianheng Mountain.

Feeling the gradually calming elements, Keqing's eyes were filled with solemnity. As a Tianquan, she hadn't encountered such a situation of a big battle near the Liyue Harbor for a long time.

"Move out! Don't let anyone escape!"

Leading an entire battalion of the Millelith Army, Keqing took the lead and headed towards the mountainside of Tianheng Mountain.

The gathering of the Millelith Army naturally caught the attention of the fatui's. A fatui officer hurriedly came to the two chatting people.

"Two adults, Qixing is leading the Millelith Army up here. Should we relocate first?"

Humph, look at how well the fools can talk. "Relocate" instead of "flee" or "escape".

"Why should we leave? Didn't we report to the Ministry of Civil Affairs?" Tartaglia was puzzled. He remembered that he had informed his subordinates to report this battle to the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

"Uh!" The fatui officer's expression froze, then he looked at the surrounding ruins and thought of the huge explosion and mushroom cloud just now, revealing an awkward smile. "Executive, what we reported was a friendly sparring match. Obviously, the combat power of you two exceeded the scope of a sparring match!"

Tartaglia and Wang Daoyi glanced at each other, only then did they realize that the commotion caused by their battle this time might have been a bit too much.

"Cough, this is your camp. Leave that Qixing to you to deal with. Anyway, your Northland Bank has money, it's just a fine. You are the Snezhnaya Envoy, Keqing won't punish you separately!"

Wang Daoyi showed an innocent smile, throwing the problem to Tartaglia.

Tartaglia looked unhappily at Wang Daoyi, who actually wanted to escape. However, he immediately smiled again, "Although what you said makes sense, but just now, we were delayed for a while. I'm afraid the way down Tianheng Mountain has been surrounded by the Millelith Army. How do you plan to leave? It's better to wait here for Qixing to handle us!"

Wang Daoyi looked at Tartaglia strangely, not speaking for a moment.

Tartaglia felt uncomfortable being stared at by Wang Daoyi, and couldn't help but speak, "Why are you looking at me like that? Did I say something wrong, or do you know of a secret passage down the mountain?"

"I mean, is there a possibility that I can fly out?" Wang Daoyi looked at Tartaglia, feeling like laughing.

"Fly?" Tartaglia was surprised. Although both of them could fly when they entered their divine posture and Demon Lord Armor, it was obviously not a capability they had in their normal state.

"Um, Executive, according to our intelligence, His Excellency Wang Daoyi has an elemental creation creature stationed at Tianheng Mountain." Before the words of the fatui officer fell, accompanied by the cry of an eagle, a fierce wind descended on the camp. The previously tidied-up fool camp became chaotic again.

Responding to Wang Daoyi's call, the gigantic Wind Eagle flew down from the summit of Tianheng Mountain. In fact, it had sensed the arrival of its master during the riot of geo elements. It just hadn't been summoned and had been waiting there.

"Huh? You're actually a beast tamer?" Tartaglia was surprised. He had only glanced at the fool's briefing, which only mentioned that Wang Daoyi had destroyed a large tribe of hill tribes attacking the fools. It didn't explain how he did it, so he was surprised to learn for the first time that Wang Daoyi actually had a Wind Eagle pet.

"Heh, you don't know much yet!" Wang Daoyi sneered, stood up from the mat, and the Wind Eagle landed in front of him, affectionately rubbing against its master. "I'm going to slip away first. Goodbye!"

Wang Daoyi climbed onto the back of the Wind Eagle, which flapped its wings, instantly taking off from the ground. The previously harsh wind became gentle, enveloping Wang Daoyi on its back.

At the entrance of the fatui's camp, Keqing led the Millelith Army to arrive, only to see a huge green eagle soaring into the sky, with a person sitting on its back.

Her eyes became even sharper. Someone actually wanted to escape!

With a flick of her right hand, a long sword appeared in Keqing's hand, and the next moment, a thunder mark was thrown out.

Wang Daoyi was sitting on the back of the Wind Eagle, contemplating his gains from this battle, when he saw a purple thunder mark appear beside him. Then, with a flash of lightning, a purple-clothed girl appeared behind the Wind Eagle, a long sword appearing precisely at Wang Daoyi's neck.

"You are under arrested! Descend immediately!"

Keqing's cold voice sounded in Wang Daoyi's ear.

[Oops, I was careless and didn't dodge!]

Feeling the sharpness on his neck, Wang Daoyi considered for a moment. It seemed that it wasn't appropriate for intellectuals like them to engage in fights and killings. They should cooperate with the official actions.

Patting the back of the Wind Eagle, which sensed the situation behind it and let out an angry cry, feeling indignant that it hadn't reacted yet and someone had broken through its protection and held its master hostage.

But now that its master was in the hands of the enemy, the Wind Eagle could only obediently descend and return to the fatui's camp.
