Genshin Impact: The Road to Reversal

Chapter 379 The Saint’s Child

Seeing Kailin's reaction, Hualong chuckled again: "Surprised, right? Let me tell you another secret. Most of the elemental power and contracts in Perissa come from the Holy Lord. So you can say that she is the Holy Lord's biological daughter."

what?

Kailin screamed, and the teacup in her hand fell to the tea table with a "clatter", and the tea splashed on the table like a broken flower. She suddenly looked around and made sure no one was watching before asking again.

"The Holy Lord's child, her age..."

Perissa tilted her head slightly and said in a childish voice, "Lisa is already 200 years old."

"200 years old?" Karen exclaimed, then observed her innocent appearance. It was obvious that she looked like a girl under 14 years old.

"Could it be that Lolita is old... Ugh!"

Just as she was about to continue, she suddenly felt a pain in her right foot.

Then, Mo Yan folded his arms and continued, "It's okay, keep talking."

Gui Zhong smiled helplessly and continued to explain, "Lisa was born during the plague 200 years ago. At that time, because of her ability to coexist with the plague, she was once believed to be the one who brought the plague. Later, the Holy Lord stepped in and evolved the plague. It was then that we learned that the plague that caused her birth was not only the result of the evil deeds of the Sangyang people, but also the poison used by the Holy Lord to purify the world's filth. It can be said that it was a true accidental product."

"Therefore, Lisa naturally became one of our Seven Stars." Hualong nodded.

Kailin hesitated for a few seconds and said, "Why does it sound like you got in through the back door because of some connection?"

Hualong laughed again: "Haha, I do feel that way, but her strength is unquestionable."

"That's right. Last night at the South Gate, our Lisa single-handedly eliminated most of the mutant monsters attacking the city." Gui Zhong smiled and gently stroked the top of Perissa's head.

"Last night?" Kailin was stunned again. "Speaking of yesterday's action, Sister Ye Lan seemed to have mentioned that the four gates were guarded by seniors who were stronger than them. Could it be that the seniors she was referring to were..."

Before he finished speaking, Hualong nodded and said, "Quite quick reaction, not bad. That was us. I was in the west, Mr. Zhongli was in the east, while Senior Guizhong and Perissa were guarding the north and south gates respectively."

"So you have been in Linglang from the beginning?" Kailin asked again.

Hualong folded his arms and shook his head. "That's not the case. I arrived here after the Fallen Angel Troupe stole the defense map. Mr. Zhongli, Senior Guizhong, and Perissa were already in the city when they disguised themselves as mercenaries and entered here. Speaking of which, Mr. Zhongli seems to have had some interactions with It from the Fallen Angel Troupe, right?"

Zhongli nodded. "Yes, I took action in Sangang Bay because I promised Brother Chiye. I didn't expect him to come up with a countermeasure based on my fighting style. In the end, even the Demon Lord, the mastermind behind the scenes, joined the fight for the Heart of the Demon Killer."

"Were you there when 'Killer Ghost' was taken away?" Tianlang was suddenly shocked.

"Well, but from a common sense perspective, it was actually Lisa who led us the way. She must have sensed the flow of the Fallen Angel's power, which led us to the village." Zhongli explained.

"It's a pity that they still let them take away the 'Shagui'. At the same time, many mutated monsters appeared around at that time." Gui Zhong added.

"I see. Then why didn't you tell me directly when we met?" Karen asked with her arms folded.

Zhongli took a sip from his teacup. His eyes deepened amidst the aroma of the tea. "It couldn't be helped. We were busy clearing out the monsters around us at the time and had no time to pay attention, so we lost the chance to meet."

"But it doesn't matter. Aren't we meeting again? To be honest, when I knew you were friends, I was so happy. Mr. Zhongli also told me a lot about what you did in Sangang Bay. Now, we can fight side by side again!" Hualong said excitedly.

At this point, Kailin suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, where are Jiexiang and Qianshang? Aren't you three siblings always together? Why are you alone this time?"

Hualong stood up and replied, "Jiexiang is in Chicheng, and Qianshang is in the Black Territory. Although the three of us siblings often work together, we each have our own missions. This time, I actually rushed here because I received a request from Military Advisor Luo Hao."

"Is that so..." Kailin revealed a complicated expression, "What a pity! I thought we could spend some more time together."

"Are they all right now?" Zhao Heng asked.

"Don't worry, apart from being a little busy, everyone is doing well. By the way, do you have anything you want to convey? I will convey it to them when we return to Sangang Bay later." Hualong said with a smile.

"That's great! They'll definitely be surprised when they hear the news about us." Karen suddenly became excited.

At this moment, Hualong smiled again: "Okay, it's noon now. What do you want to eat? Don't hesitate. It's my treat. We can have a good chat later."

"I'm so sorry~" Kailin said tactfully.

"It's okay, we're all friends."

"Then I won't be polite. Boss, give me your signature dish!" Karen's eyes lit up and she shouted at the counter.

"Hey, are you acting embarrassed?" Mo Yan complained with his hands folded.

……

Outside the city, the barbarian camp.

When they heard the news of the death of leader Dou Koda, everyone was in a panic, as if they were afraid that they would be the next.

"What should we do now? Our leader is dead. Will our barbarian tribe be leaderless?" a burly warrior said in panic.

Nayoka grabbed another barbarian warrior by the collar and shouted angrily, "Hey, you said the leader is dead. Is that true?"

The warrior said in panic, "Yes, just now the Fallen Angel Brigade sent news that the leader fell in the battle against the Thunder Lord and was completely reduced to ashes."

"How is this possible!" The soldier he pushed away staggered and leaned against a pillar nearby.

At this time, another barbarian warrior who had lost his right eye came to his side and said, "Nayuka, I understand how you feel, but now that our leader is dead, we barbarians must choose a new leader and clarify our next steps. Only in this way can we avoid annihilation."

"But the leader is not here. Who else can lead us forward?" asked the thinner warrior.

"Yes, none of the warriors here have the strength of the leader. If we continue, I'm afraid we will only perish." The burly warrior said again.

"In my opinion, we might as well surrender. We have Linglang's blood, so we can only be considered to be returning to our ancestral homeland. They have no reason to stop us."

"That's right..."

The whole audience was in an uproar, with discussions breaking out one after another.

At this moment, a roar broke the chaos.

"enough!"
