Genshin Impact: The Road to Reversal

Chapter 506: Chronology (6)

"As expected of the Guardian of Evil, he's truly formidable." Diablo exclaimed.

The moment the battle ended, Mo Yan quietly released the restraints on the "Wanderer". The other party staggered and fell directly in front of Yaohui with the storage stone in his arms.

Yaohui's attention was instantly attracted. He looked down at the stone under his feet that was emitting unstable energy fluctuations, then looked up again, his sharp eyes like a hawk locked on the panicked "wanderer" who fell to the ground.

"So you are the culprit." Yaohui frowned.

As soon as he finished speaking, the "Wanderer" hurriedly picked up the storage stone and ran away.

The streets were deserted due to the panic caused by the demons, which allowed him to move freely. At this moment, a sturdy man suddenly rushed out from the side and pushed him to the ground while he was running.

"Don't even think about running away!"

thump!

The "wanderer" was hit by this sudden obstruction and saw stars, and rolled on the ground several times.

"Who is that person?" Kailin asked in surprise.

Diablo didn't reply, but his expression became a little serious.

After the "wanderer" came to his senses, he struggled frantically and quickly pushed the man aside. However, when he stood up again and prepared to escape, the man in front of him had already been blocked by other people.

"Want to run? I'm afraid that's not that easy." The black-haired woman spread her jet-black wings and slowly landed in front of him.

The other path was also blocked by a red-haired man holding a big knife who suddenly appeared.

They are "Blood Princess" Li Xueqi and "Flame King" Lieyuan Chiye.

"It's Sister Xueqi and Chiye!" Kailin exclaimed again.

Diablo smiled and folded his arms. "That's right. Because of the chaos caused by Sang Yang, most of the eight guardians are now in Linhui. But this kid is really unlucky to have attracted the pursuit of three guardians."

Li Xueqi folded her wings slightly, gazing at the man before her with her usual playful smile. Lie Yuan Chiye's broadsword, emitting a scorching heat, blocked the other side's escape route. And directly behind him, Yao Hui, wielding a giant sword and with a sharp gaze, pressed forward.

The "wanderer" stopped where he was, wanting to escape, but there was nowhere to go.

"Just surrender and stop struggling!" Yaohui said seriously.

Seeing the three people gradually approaching, the "Wanderer" gritted his teeth and took out the storage stone in his arms to make a final resistance.

Yaohui, Li Xueqi, and Lieyuan Chiye all paused. At that moment, the young man he had pushed aside stood up and rushed over again.

"Don't even think about it!" he roared.

The wanderer was caught off guard and was suddenly tackled from the side by the young man and fell to the ground! The two men wrestled together, rolling on the ground and raising a cloud of dust.

"Let me go! You bastard!" The man roared and struggled continuously, and the storage stone in his hand rolled to the side while he was tearing it.

For a moment, his wrist was tightly clamped by the other party.

Although the young man was not a big man, he had amazing brute force and ruthlessness.

"Quick! Help!" Yaohui reacted and stepped forward immediately.

After a struggle, the "Wanderer" just kicked the young man aside, and before he could catch his breath, Yaohui approached him like a gust of wind.

He swung his sandbag-like fist out instantly, knocking the opponent against the wall and making him lose consciousness instantly.

"Done." Yaohui flicked his wrist and looked at the "wanderer" slumped in the corner. He breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that the other party had completely lost consciousness.

At this time, Li Xueqi walked forward and picked up the storage stone that had rolled to the ground and was still emitting dangerous energy fluctuations, and examined it carefully.

"Sure enough, this storage stone seals a very strong elemental force. Once released, the consequences will be disastrous. But it seems that it has nothing to do with the demon summoning." She said calmly with a smile.

"Then what should we do with this guy?" Akano squatted on the ground with a big knife on his shoulder, looking at the "wanderer" in front of him and asked.

"Tie him up. No matter what, this guy was ordered by Sang Yang to cause trouble." Yaohui said seriously with his arms folded.

"okay!"

Akano grinned, and took out a bundle of strong ropes from somewhere. He tied up the unconscious "wanderer" tightly with swift movements and threw him over his shoulder like a sack.

Li Xueqi carefully put away the dangerous storage stone. At this time, Yaohui turned his head and looked at the young man who fell to the ground.

"Thank you for your hard work. How are you? Is everything okay?" He walked over and asked.

The man stood up and shook his head: "It's okay, he can't hurt me with those two moves."

Li Xueqi walked over and smiled softly, "Really? I have to say, you're quite brave. Let's not even mention how dangerous it was just now. Take the demon from earlier for example. Most people would have run away when they saw it, but you stayed where you are. Aren't you really afraid of getting hurt?"

The man gasped softly, "Oh, I'd like to leave, but my wife and children live nearby. What will happen to them if I run away?"

"I see." The playful expression on Li Xueqi's face faded, replaced by a hint of genuine approval. "Standing up to protect your family, your courage is admirable."

The young man scratched his head a little embarrassedly: "It's my duty. I can't just stand by and watch the bad guys mess things up."

Akano walked up and patted him on the shoulder: "Thanks for stopping him in time. What's your name?"

"Zeta." The man said softly.

Like a pebble dropped into a calm lake, the name stirred ripples in Mo Yan and Kailin's hearts. They instinctively glanced at Diablo, only to see his scarlet eyes flickering behind his lenses. The playful smile he always wore faded slightly, replaced by an indescribably complex expression, as if he'd seen through time, a fateful intersection.

"Zeta..." Yaohui repeated the name and nodded, "I remember it."

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly turned around and looked at Mo Yan, Kailin and others standing beside him.

The two were startled by his action, but Yaohui's eyes were fixed on Diablo from beginning to end.

"Those of you over there," he said with a subtle hint of vigilance, "Have you seen enough?"

Diablo's expression faltered for a moment before he came to his senses. "It's Lord Yaohui, the Evil One. What can I do for you?"

Yaohui walked over to them and said, "Nothing, I'm just curious. The demon was making such a fuss just now, and everyone else ran away. Why are you still here?"

He stopped in front of Diablo and looked up and down at the man with glasses and a unique temperament.

"You don't look like locals, and you're carrying weapons... Could you be mercenaries? If so, that's easy to explain. But, since you haven't left, why are you standing here watching?" He folded his arms and frowned.

At this moment, Kailin was about to step forward and say hello, but was stopped by Mo Yan.
