Chapter 402 It’s over(1/2)
Looking at the surroundings that gradually returned to calm, for some reason, Bai Qiyun suddenly felt a sense of sadness in his heart.
Whether it's sludge or giant steel snakes, they're all things from hundreds of thousands of years ago.
Not only did he not feel proud of disappearing like this now, but he felt helpless in the face of the passage of time.
In the thousands of years since the end of the Teyvat Demon God War, how many weird and mysterious existences will still be hidden in the darkness? As long as one of them comes to the light, it will bring unimaginable disasters to people.
In the face of this undercurrent of the world, Bai Qiyun suddenly felt very small.
"Is this solved?"
Ying, who had been watching, slowly fell to the boy's side. The battle between the two just now was too fast, and she didn't even have room to intervene.
Fortunately, the big steel snake only looked intimidating, and was beaten to the ground easily.
"Well, it seems so."
Seeing the Hantian Nail in front of him quietly emitting light, Bai Qiyun's mood became calmer.
There are so many suspicious things in this line that he could fill a whole page if he sorted them out, but fortunately their main purpose has been achieved.
Only by standing here can one clearly feel that the power of the Cold Sky Nail is spreading from in front of them in the cave to the entire underground.
I think it won't be long before all the sludge that gives miners headaches will disappear from under the giant rock abyss.
It's just that it's better for them not to go near the hanging city.
In his opinion, even with the suppression of Hantian Nail, that kind of place would not get much better. At best, it would not continue to spread to the outside.
After he returned to the ground, he could just tell Jin Wu that the lower area nearby would be designated as a restricted area and miners would be prohibited from going deep.
Speaking of which, the Fools that I heard about in the treasure-stealing group never showed up, so we need to be careful about this in future explorations.
It's just that those are the work of those who came later, and their work has been successfully completed.
Perhaps because Bai Qiyun's previous movements were too big, the stone pillars on the side suddenly cracked and fell into the depths of the cave, raising waves of sand and dust.
"let's go."
Looking at the cave that was starting to become noisy again, Bai Qiyun sighed and led a few people out of the place along the way they came.
It's better to be quieter in this place.
Along the way, Bai Qiyun and his party could see that some of the previous sludge had begun to melt, which was proof that their efforts were effective.
When they were close to the surface, there were still some treasure thieves who had not escaped and were moving with difficulty towards the secret tunnel they had dug.
Bai Qiyun didn't do much when he saw it, and just let it fend for itself.
Passing through the big elevator, the familiar sunshine once again shines on everyone's heads.
The few people who stayed underground for a long time were blinded by the dazzling light. They did not dare to look directly at the dazzling sunshine and covered their heads with their hands.
However, what surprised Bai Qiyun was that Yanbo and the others were still here. He had remembered that the other party should have organized people to evacuate the layered rock abyss, but he did not expect that they were still waiting for him here.
Before Yan Bo could speak, Bai Qiyun took the initiative and nodded to the soldier in front of him.
"it's over."
Hearing this, Yan Bo couldn't help but feel a hint of joy on his face.
The mutation that no one could deal with for such a long time was solved just like that, which made him feel like he was in a dream.
"The envoys have really helped me a lot. I would like to thank you on behalf of the brothers from Qianyan Army."
Yanbo lowered his head to the young man in front of him and saluted respectfully.
It's not surprising that he reacted badly. If Bai Qiyun and others hadn't come to resolve the matter, I'm afraid that in the end they would still have to risk casualties and let Qianyan's army sneak underground.
In that case, I don't know how many people would die. You must know that the Qianyan Army is also a mortal body.
The flood alone would have killed most of them, and a few of them saved the lives of hundreds or thousands of soldiers.
In Yanbo's view, this kind of mere salute is a bit too light. Afterwards, he must go to the Seven Stars to ask for some rewards for more people.
However, the excited Yan Bo obviously forgot that Bai Qiyun and others were sent by Qixing, so how could they be deprived of their benefits.
Not to mention Bai Qiyun's own opinions, Ningguang would not agree to them first.
Using so many captain-level experts and her own favors, she now had to take advantage of those stubborn old men.
Bai Qiyun waved his hand, indicating that the other party did not need to do this.
"I still have something to do to see Sister Jinwu and the others. You guys have a rest and we'll go back in the evening."
After giving some instructions to Shen He, Beidou and others, Bai Qiyun walked towards the residence of the exploration team on the side.
Needless to say, even if that group of people has no fighting ability, they will definitely be the last ones left and will not be taken away from this place by the Qianyan Army.
Just when Bai Qiyun and others returned to the ground, several figures emerged from the underground hiding deep in the shadows.
One of the thin men looked at his boss dressed in peasant clothes in front of him with a respectful attitude.
"Boss, according to the news, those people sent by Liyue have all returned to the ground."
Listening to the report from his subordinates, the man known as the boss clasped his hands behind his back and looked at the instrument in front of him without saying a word.
His slightly thin face looked even more sinister in the dark underground. Although he was dressed in peasant clothes, he had no peasant temperament at all.
Instead, a sinister expression hung clearly on his face.
But at this moment, he seemed to be in a very good temperament, with a smile on his lips.
He stretched out his hand and patted the big guy in front of him, whose whole body was made of stones. He was very satisfied.
After a while, he raised his right hand and spoke slowly.
"It doesn't matter, let those guys go back. You must know that the best way to hide something is to make the other party think that everything has been resolved."
What's more, he had already used that group of people to test the power of the instrument in front of him, and the effect was very good.
This thing is a powerful force that the Spin Demon Society has used to combine dozens of legacies. Naturally, it must be tested first if it is given to him.
Thinking of this, he remembered the news that came back some time ago about the idiot who died on the snowy mountain.
Fortunately, their organization also gave that person the 'Eye of the First Plowing Machine' that was finally obtained, but as a result, he was stuck on the snowy mountain without accomplishing anything.
According to their plan, Mondstadt should be under their control by then.
"Oh, that trash."
The man smiled disdainfully and placed his hand on the large instrument in front of him.
This is the best hiding place underground where you can't see anything.
Just waiting for the opportunity to come, he will surely overturn the entire Liyue.

After a while of instructions on what to pay attention to, a few people boarded the 'First Floor in the Sky' and flew towards Liyue Port.
After another night of traveling, Bai Qiyun saw Liyue Harbor under the rising sun from the pavilion just before dawn.
After placing the 'First Floor in the Sky' at the designated location, Bai Qiyun took the three girls back to the restaurant.
As for Ye Lan, that guy didn't know where he went when he returned to Liyue Port. Anyway, he was not an employee of his family, so he could go wherever he liked.
As soon as he entered the restaurant, Bai Qiyun bumped into Mona with an irritated face.
"Little boss? You are back."
Mona's eyes instantly lit up when she saw the boy.
The real owner is finally back.
The girl quickly grabbed Bai Qiyun's arm and slipped aside, as if she had something to tell him.
Under Shen He and Beidou's strange gaze, Mona pulled Bai Qiyun to the corner of the hall on the first floor.
"What's wrong, you're so anxious? Did something happen to the restaurant while I was away?"
Bai Qiyun slapped away the girl's hand holding his sleeve, but all he was thinking about was the Evergreen Banquet.
Seeing the young man being so absent-minded, Mona's cheeks puffed up.
She is helping this guy, why does this man still look like he doesn't care.
"Mr. Yun from Yunhan Club came yesterday and said he wanted to see you for something, but when he saw that you were not there, he went back first."
Of course, the process was not as concise as Mona said. During the period, Yun Jin also asked many questions about Bai Qiyun, but in her opinion, it was just a drunkard who was not interested in drinking.
"Viola?"
The face of the girl walking on the stage slowly emerged in Bai Qiyun's mind, making him stop thinking about the Evergreen Banquet.
"What is that guy doing here?"
Bai Qiyun held his chin and began to search his mind for recent events related to Yun Jin.
Yun Jin...wait a minute, it can't be that.
"Did Yun Jin mentioned Ning Guang when she came?"
"Ah, I remember saying something."
To be continued...
