“Are you going to fight me?” Mu Yang’s face showed a playful smile.
Tartaglia’s combat strength has always been a bit of a mystery. At first, many people thought Tartaglia possessed the strength of a god, after all, he was nearly able to go toe-to-toe with the Traveler who wielded two elements.
However, it was later discovered that while this guy might be able to unleash power comparable to an ordinary god after using his Delusion, he was still quite a bit weaker compared to a god like Xiao.
The Traveler’s strength is also quite a mystery. At first, everyone thought that the siblings together could fight evenly with the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles, after all, the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles even had to fight with the god of time. But it was later found that the opening animation was probably all there was to it. They were defeated and sealed in just a few seconds.
After all, even the god of time himself admitted that he couldn’t even defeat Dainsleif, not to mention that there were five people in Khaenri’ah who were even stronger than Dainsleif.
A protagonist with five elements can’t beat a servant, this is a fact. At first, everyone thought that a protagonist with seven elements would have the strength comparable to the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles, but if you think about it carefully, the protagonist with seven elements might just be a god at best.
However, if that were the case, then such power would not be worthy of the title of Descender.
“Of course I want to,” Tartaglia’s face showed an eager look. “After all, you should be a powerful fighter.”
“If you want to fight him, defeat me first.” Keqing stood in front of Mu Yang with sharp eyes and a cold voice.
Tartaglia then turned his gaze towards Keqing. “I have already challenged the Jade-Chamber Star. The time given by Liyue seems to be a month later.
I look forward to our battle.”
He then turned his gaze to Mu Yang again, “I hope we can have a fight then.”
After finishing his words, Tartaglia turned and left. He had already found out what he wanted to know.
However, the Tsaritsa asked him to find Rex Lapis. He has been wandering around Liyue for several days now, but he hasn’t seen Rex Lapis’s whereabouts.
He didn’t know where he went, and he didn’t know where to look for Rex Lapis.
Seeing Tartaglia leave, Keqing asked Mu Yang, “Was he here to provoke us?”
Keqing was not a fool, she was even smarter than Mu Yang, but Mu Yang always gave her the feeling that he had everything under control, which made Keqing quite confident in him. The intelligence gap between them was quite large, and she was willing to trust Mu Yang.
“There should also be some probing.
He wants to see if I’m a Descender.” Mu Yang pondered for a moment, then let out a cold laugh. “There are differences between travelers from other worlds and Descenders.”
“Descender? So are you a Descender?” This was the first time Keqing heard the term Descender.
It sounded quite powerful.
“I don’t know about that, to be honest, even I’m not quite sure.” Mu Yang shook his head slightly. “But you need to work harder from now on.
Try to completely surpass him within a month.”
Mu Yang had been watching Keqing’s growth over the past few days. If she fought Tartaglia with all her might, Keqing might not lose, but Mu Yang didn’t want Keqing to get hurt.
Thinking for a moment, Mu Yang continued, “Tartaglia has a god-forged weapon, we should ask Rex Lapis if he has any good weapons. He has quite a few good things in his possession.
I remember there’s a Primordial Jade Cutter, it should be a good weapon for you.”
“Primordial Jade Cutter?” Keqing had heard of this weapon belonging to Rex Lapis before, and her heart was moved. A good weapon would give her a huge boost.
Moreover, it was the former weapon of Rex Lapis, for Keqing, the symbolic significance was far greater than the combat power boost.
It represented Rex Lapis’s approval of her.
“But can I really get it?” Thinking of this, Keqing also became conflicted.
Of course, Keqing wanted the Primordial Jade Cutter, but she felt like she didn’t deserve to possess the Primordial Jade Cutter.
“Why can’t you get it? Rex Lapis truly admires you.
I’m very sure about this. For Rex Lapis now, the Primordial Jade Cutter is just a casual weapon, if it is beneficial to Liyue, he wouldn’t mind taking out the Primordial Jade Cutter.
Besides, you fought for Liyue this time. To let you fight for Liyue better, it’s not a problem to borrow the Primordial Jade Cutter, right?” As for whether she would return it later, that would be a problem for later.
Keqing frowned, feeling uneasy inside. She remembered what she said during the Rite of Descension. At that time, she was quite rebellious.
Would she be acknowledged by Rex Lapis with such an attitude?
Mu Yang: “@Zhongli, are you there? Need to borrow something!”
Zhongli: “What?”
Mu Yang: “Primordial Jade Cutter, Tartaglia has challenged Keqing, the other party has a weapon given by the Tsaritsa, you borrowing the Primordial Jade Cutter is quite reasonable, right? Don’t let her lose to Tartaglia because of weapons.”
Ganyu: “Primordial Jade Cutter?”
Xiao: “!!!”
Ningguang: “This weapon might be a bit difficult, after all, it’s Rex Lapis’s sword, it has too much symbolic significance.”
Of course, Ningguang also hoped that Keqing could defeat Tartaglia, after all, this represented the fight for Liyue, but if Keqing held the Primordial Jade Cutter, the whole Liyue might be in an uproar.
As long as Rex Lapis didn’t appear himself, Keqing holding the Primordial Jade Cutter would represent Rex Lapis’s decree.
Even the Qixing would be overshadowed by Keqing.
Zhongli: “Primordial Jade Cutter? Anyway, the Primordial Jade Cutter no longer has much use for me, I’ll give this sword to Jade-Chamber Star to use.”
Zhongli didn’t have such concerns.
If it were an ordinary person, Zhongli would indeed need to worry about them acting recklessly.
But the other party is Keqing. This girl’s principles are stronger than imagined. Moreover, they are all in the guild now. Zhongli doesn’t need to worry about Keqing acting recklessly. If she has any ideas in the future, he can directly let Keqing take out the Primordial Jade Cutter and forcibly push it through.
Zhongli himself still wanted to hand over the power to humans, he wanted to retire.
But after hearing the terrifying things from Mu Yang, Zhongli felt that his retirement plan needed to be adjusted.
