Chapter 85: Chapter 84: Fight Me, Morax
The term "Ley Lines" runs through almost the entire continent of Teyvat.
It is a conceptual network that connects everything in this world, with different elements flowing through it. It is said that everything that happens above and below the ground is recorded in the ley lines.
When the frost in the veins erodes the vines, a monster called a frozen tree is created.
The formation of these peculiar plants such as the whopperflower and the pyro whopperflower is also deeply related to the Ley lines.
"I'm missing a part of my soul?"
Bai Luo spread out his hands, looking a little curious.
He didn't know what the symptoms of losing his soul would be, but he certainly didn't feel any discomfort, and he even felt like he had never been so complete.
However, his own system, which was a little out of control, was obviously very abnormal. It had only recently started to become somewhat active. Before, he almost forgot that he even had this thing.
"Yes, and there are very obvious marks. Anyone can see the tearing feeling."
Zhongli looked at him again and said with certainty.
"..."
What you said is an insult to everyone in the world.
What is this so-called soul-tearing?
Could it be... That's not right. I'm not a soul traveling across time and space, but a person running here. There's no such thing as the original soul in my body being squeezed out.
That's right, evil spirits!
"Mr. Zhongli, may I ask what the term "evil spirit" means?"
Zhongli just said that his condition is related to the Ley lines and evil spirits.
Maybe the other party can give him a satisfactory answer.
"The so-called evil spirit is actually a term used by the exorcist family of Liyue. On the continent of Teyvat, it has a more orthodox name - Demon God Residue."
"Demon God Remnants?!"
Bai Luo knew better than anyone what the demon remnants were. You should know that the demon remnants were sealed in the body of the cute little Collei who he had just sent to Sumeru.
The so-called remnants of the demon god are also the remains of the demon god. Because the power has not completely dissipated, the remaining unwillingness of the demon god still affects the world.
This also made Bai Luo more certain that the soul-tearing that Zhongli mentioned should be tearing his system.
Because so far, when Bai Luo activated the system, he was doing things related to the devil or the devil's residue. For example, when Battousai fought the Thunder God, and later on, the devil's residue on Collei.
"The reason why I said that you shouldn't be told about these things is because it's related to that exorcist family. Because your soul is torn apart... If I'm not mistaken, it's the method used by the exorcist family. But there's no evil aura on you at all. Generally speaking, they shouldn't do anything to you, so I find it strange."
This time, Zhongli even stretched out his hand and placed it on Bai Luo's wrist, as if he was taking his pulse.
This also made him more certain of his guess.
"A family of exorcists..."
Are you referring to Chongyun? That guy attacked me?
That doesn't make sense. I have never been to Liyue, nor have I met anyone from the Chongyun family. Then why is my soul missing?
And also.
"Mr. Zhongli, you told me all this. Aren't you afraid that I will cause trouble for those exorcist families? After all, you know the methods of us Fatui. It's not difficult to find them."
Bai Luo said half-jokingly.
After drinking the remaining tea in the bowl in one gulp, Zhongli said in a domineering tone: "Do you dare?"
"..."
I really don't dare.
This is also one of the reasons why Zhongli said that it was not possible before but is possible now, because before he was not sure whether Bai Luo knew his identity, but after he was sure that he knew it, it became easy.
No one can kill the family of exorcists that Morax protects, and Lord Rex Lapis himself is a powerful deterrent.
Bai Luo can kill those people with his own abilities, but he will not take the initiative to cause killing.
Because there was no need for this at all. He was not even sure whether what Morax said was true. It was not his style to cause trouble for a family based on his words.
He could take Zhongli's words as advice, but not as the truth.
Who knows whether this old monster who has lived for a thousand years will cheat him.
"Now it seems that the loss of your soul has not had a big impact on you. Apart from the loss of memory, it has not affected you at all. From a universal point of view, perhaps the person who obtained part of your soul did not have any ill will towards you."
For many people, the soul is a good medium.
For example, casting a curse on the soul or doing other things will have a great impact on the person.
"Then I wonder if Mr. Zhongli could help introduce me to that exorcist family? I have no ill intentions, I just want to find the missing soul."
Although he said he wanted to retrieve his soul, in fact, Bai Luo wanted to retrieve the incomplete part of the system.
He was now almost certain that the torn part was more like his own system than the missing part of his soul.
An incomplete system can bring him such powerful strength. If he collects the complete system, does it mean that he can obtain a new career more quickly?
By then, not to mention using a steamroller to hit people, maybe even a starburst or a knife light could be used.
ou<
hihi~
"I am just an ordinary guest of the Wangsheng Hall. How can I help you to establish a connection with the exorcist family? Mr. Bai, please seek help from someone else."
Although he said it politely, Zhongli had actually ruthlessly rejected Bai Luo's request for help by saying this since both parties knew each other well.
The reason he could tell Bai Luo so many things was because he was once a citizen of Liyue. He and Bai Luo were not yet so close that he would reveal his identity for him.
"Then... can I ask you for another favor? It's something very insignificant to you."
Bai Luo did not feel disappointed by Zhongli's refusal, or rather, he had already realized that the other party would absolutely not agree to his first request.
The first requirement is entirely to pave the way for the second requirement.
"Go ahead."
Zhongli, who originally wanted to leave, did not rush to leave after hearing his words.
"Let's have a fight."
"???"
This time, Zhongli's face was no longer as calm as before, but with a hint of surprise.
Bai Luo should know who he is, right? But in this situation, Bai Luo still said this.
Over the past thousand years, Zhongli has experienced countless deaths and separations, and has his own unique insights into people. He could tell that Bai Luo was joking when he said he wanted to cause trouble for the Exorcist Family, but he could also tell that he was serious at this time.
Does Bai Luo, the Harbinger of the Fatui, really want to challenge himself as a god?
Even if he had obtained the power of the Cryo Archon, it did not mean that he could defeat a god, let alone the fact that he was the oldest god.
After being surprised for a while, he felt relieved.
"As long as you pay for my tea, I'll fight you, how about that?"
"Of course, I can still afford a bowl of tea."
"I mean... the tea money that has been owed since his grandfather's generation."
"...Then let's put it on the Childe's account."
