"There's no need to pay for free. It's natural to pay for meals. I'm different from my ex. I don't like to keep accounts."

Zhong Rui declined Xiang Ling's reward. As the rock god, he could make Mo La at any time. In a sense, it was a kind of free prostitution.

And if Xiangling insisted on giving him a free meal, he would be embarrassed to come to Wanmintang to eat often.

"By the way, I'll give you the recipe. In your words, delicious food is for sharing, so you don't have to worry about it so much."

"Zhong Rui! My lifelong friend! You are so kind!"

Hearing this, Xiang Ling hugged Zhong Rui even more excitedly. His friend was too much for her!

When Master Mao in the kitchen saw his daughter hugging the young man, he couldn't help but swing the kitchen knife a little harder.

"By the way, I happen to have an appointment with Yun Jin this afternoon. Let me introduce you to..."

Just as Xiang Ling was speaking, the man next to him who was eating alone suddenly stood up, summoned a water blade in his hand and stabbed Zhong Rui, who was being held by Xiang Ling.

"careful!"

Hearing the movement behind him, Zhong Rui didn't even look back. The imaginary number square appeared out of thin air and trapped the assassin's arm.

"Huh?! Such ability! You are!"

Before the man could finish his words, the imaginary number square completely sealed him, then gathered into a palm-sized square and returned to Zhong Rui's hand.

"Interesting, you were obviously targeting me just now?"

The clear murderous intent on the other side was noticed by Zhong Rui when they were eating just now.

I thought he would follow me to a place where no one was around before taking action, but it turned out that the other party was even more impatient than I expected.

"Zhong Rui, are you okay?"

"Well, I'm fine. I'm sorry Xiang Ling, I almost got you involved."

Zhong Rui pretended to put the imaginary number cube into his pocket, but actually threw it into his alien space. He turned around and said to the startled diners.

"I'm sorry for scaring all the diners because of me. As an apology, I will pay for your consumption today."

"This young master is so polite!"

"We are fine, but you are not injured, right?"

Upon hearing the generous young master's treat, the diners showed their enthusiasm for Zhong Rui.

There were also a few well-dressed diners who looked at Zhong Rui's face and tried to identify him...

Soon one person remembered something, and quickly grabbed his accomplice who was about to come forward to talk, and shook his head slightly at him.

This young man is a distinguished guest of Yuheng Star, not a big shot that small businessmen like them can make friends with.

After leaving a large amount of mora, Zhong Rui hurriedly said goodbye to Xiang Ling, turned around and walked into a deserted alley, using space to move back home.

Taking out the imaginary number cube, Zhong Rui unlocked the seal inside and released the man who swung the knife at him in Wanmin Hall.

"Abyss Religion?"

Zhong Rui glanced at him, and then used the ability of the prompt system to accidentally discover his identity.

[Name: Si Lan]

[Race: Human (cursed)]

[Current favorability: -100 (until death)]

[Skills held: Water Element Mastery lv2 Torrent Swordsmanship lv2 Disguise lv2 Power of the Abyss lv2]

[Currently available beliefs: 0/month]

[Evaluation: The cursed apostle of the Abyss Cult, who disguised his identity and sneaked into the city in order to carry out His Highness's orders, is just an insignificant ant to you. 】

"Heavenly Reason!!!"

Si Lan, who had just regained his freedom, instantly shed his disguise and turned into a fighting posture, completely degenerating into a monster.

The body is wrapped in blue light armor, the wrists condense with dark blue water blades, and the armor shines with the light of the water element.

Just when it was about to rush towards Zhong Rui and swing its knife, its body strangely solidified in mid-air.

It's like stopping when hit.

Although he still retains the ability to think, his body cannot move at all, so he can only watch Zhong Rui observe himself with interest.

"Si Lan, I didn't expect that your Highness would actually send you here..."

"?!"

The originally furious Apostle of the Abyss felt as if someone had poured cold water on him, and a chill ran down his spine and rushed straight to his brain.

Why does he know his name? !

He even knows about His Highness!

Has he noticed their actions? ?

"I have to say that your Highness actually acted at this time, which is beyond my expectation."

"How on earth did you know that?!"

Take the bait!

I just said it casually, but I didn’t expect that I actually caught a big fish~

Zhong Rui raised a smile on his lips, snapped his fingers, nailed its limbs with the Archon Spear, and looked at it condescendingly.

"Is there a possibility that the Abyss Cult has been under my surveillance from the very beginning?"

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

"The reverse statue of Liyue, the Demon God of the Whirlpool, Tevalin of Mondstadt, the remnant soul of the North Wind Wolf King..."

"you!!!"

Si Lan looked at Zhong Rui in horror. He didn't understand why the Abyss Order's plan was exposed to him!

Is it true that as he said, the movements of the Abyss Religion have always been under his surveillance? !

But how did he do it!

"Judging from your reaction, it seems that my spy is disguising himself very well."

Zhong Rui smiled, watching Si Lan's expression gradually change from fear to anger.

If it hadn't been for today's assassination, he would have almost forgotten that the Fools were not the only ones causing trouble in Teyvat, but also the Abyss Order, a dangerous element that was an enemy of the Seven Kingdoms.

If the Fools are trying to collect God's Hearts for the Queen of Winter, they will do whatever it takes to plunge other countries into chaos.

The Abyss Cult is trying to make the Abyss submerge the throne of Tianli. To this end, they will do whatever it takes and have a hostile relationship with the Seven Kingdoms.

He had only tamed the Fools to be obedient in Liyue, but he had not prepared the means to deal with the Abyss Cult.

If I remember correctly, the Abyss Religion at this time was gathering demon-level combat power in an attempt to use it against the Seven Kingdoms and Heavenly Law in the future.

Mondstadt's wind dragon Tvarin, and Liyue's Osel who was sealed in Guyun Pavilion, these are the goals of the Abyss Order.

Seeing Zhong Rui who was ready to get to know him, the Abyss Apostle lying on the ground had resentment in his eyes. He didn't expect that there was a traitor within the cult!

"Okay, that's enough chit-chat, you're not far behind...who is that person!?"

A vague figure suddenly appeared from behind Zhong Rui, holding a long black knife and slashing hard at the space barrier set up by Zhong Rui.

Feeling that the restraints on its limbs suddenly disappeared, the Abyss Apostle immediately jumped out of the window to escape, and at the same time, an Archon Spear penetrated its chest.

However, the monster's inhuman constitution prevented it from falling. Hearing the sound of fighting behind him, Si Lan endured his injuries and got into the open fog door in front of him.

Zhong Rui looked at its back as it disappeared behind the fog door, removing the figure refracted by light elements.

With an intriguing smile on his face, he waved his hand to gather the fragments of the window together with the wind element.

The seeds of doubt have been planted by him. Will this be able to delay the Abyss Order's actions for a while?

Chapter 49 Mond: First of all, I didn't mess with any of you!

"Your Highness, there are traitors in the Order..."

Si Lan desperately told the other party the final news. The dirty blood no longer flowed out of the hollow chest, and the corpse lying in the hall turned into little stars and disappeared.

"traitor?"

Kong looked at Si Lan's fallen position, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes, but he quickly calmed down.

There was no time to feel sad, so he tried his best to convey this precious news to himself. Naturally, Sora would not doubt the authenticity of this news.

Si Lan was a member she sent to lurk in Liyue Port. Where did she learn this news in Liyue?

Apart from the immortals living in seclusion in Liyue, the only ones who could beat the apostles of the abyss into such a dying state were the two rock gods...

But how did they place spies within the Abyss Order?

Who is that traitor?

"Your Highness, how should we handle this matter?"

The Abyss Master respectfully asked the air that this piece of information that Si Lan desperately conveyed might cause chaos within the Abyss Order.

Although most of them are the cursed remnants of Camria, it is inevitable that there will be some who are unwilling to follow His Highness' ideals.

Just like that Dainsreib who often hindered their actions.

"...Stop actions on Liyue's side, and while the Fengshen has not yet awakened, give priority to awakening Tevalin."

Kong thought for a while and decided to hide this matter first so as not to affect the unity within the sect.

In addition, she is now confused about the identity of the traitor, so she can only test it slowly in the future.

Since the water in Liyue is too deep, they will first target Mondstadt, which is not protected by gods.

Moreover, even if Barbatos wakes up, he probably won't have much strength left in his body that has not performed his priestly duties for hundreds of years.

At least on the surface, Barbatos is easier to bully than the new god Liyue, whose strength is unknown!

What's more, there is no immortal like Liyue in Mondstadt.

Especially during this time in Mondstadt, the elites of the Knights have set off on expeditions, and now there are not many troops left in Mondstadt.

The more Kong thought about it, the more he felt that Mond was a soft persimmon, best suited to implement their Abyss Order's plan.
