Chapter 782 The Uninvited Guest, Silk Kirk
Although Navelette appeared to maintain his usual composed demeanor, the scepter he held trembled slightly, revealing that his state of mind was far from stable.
Xu Ning shook his head slightly when he heard Villette's question.
"No, how could I possibly have thought of using you beforehand..."
Kong, who was worried about another fight, breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Xu Ning's words. Fortunately, Brother Xu did not make things difficult for Vilette.
"...I've been eyeing this 'fetal sea' for hundreds of years..."
Empty: (wДw)
Ignoring Kong's shock, Xu Ning continued speaking to himself.
"...However, Agolia was too cautious, and in the end she only gave me a spring. Now that we finally have a chance to enter this place, how can we not take everything away to make up for the suffering of Little Fish? We went through a lot of trouble to have a good meal, and then we were robbed again."
Upon hearing Xu Ning mention the Devouring Whale, Vilette seemed to suddenly understand something.
"You foresaw the form in which the Fontaine prophecy would take place and placed this giant whale here in advance?"
Xu Ning waved his hand dismissively, "Although I used some tricks, it wasn't me. As for you, you're just some water from the Fetal Sea. Before today, it might have been somewhat useful for the reproduction of the Fengdan people, but after today, the Fengdan people have been given true bloodlines by you, and the Pure Water Spirits will no longer travel through the Fengdan waterways as your companions. This dispensable Fetal Sea is better left to me, so that the remaining Pure Water Spirits can have a place to live."
Navelette said in a deep voice, "The Primal Ocean of the Womb is not something dispensable, whether for Fontaine or for the entire Teyvat..."
"It's very important! I know you've said it several times. Anyway, there are no outsiders here, so I might as well be blunt. My brother's sister seems to want to wage war against Heavenly Justice. Both my brother and I want to help her, both morally and logically. As for you, as the Water Dragon King, Heavenly Justice is also the biggest obstacle to your restoration of the ancient dragon's glory and your target for revenge, isn't it?"
Xu Ning opened his arms and made a gesture of embracing the two of them, and laughed: "That's why I've always said that we're actually on the same side. I'm just using the Fetal Sea to increase my bargaining chips in the final battle. In the end, I still have to give it back to you. You can't even bear to part with this?"
Navelette looked at Xu Ning's flamboyant demeanor and slowly shook her head.
"I don't trust you."
"Alright, all that talk was for nothing. I know you suspect that I deliberately kept the little fish here, causing the disaster in Fontaine. You think I caused the disaster and then came to play the savior, but I want to say that this is just a matter of fate, and everything follows the trajectory of destiny."
Xu Ning shrugged, "Unfortunately, I can't find anyone to testify for me right now..."
Before she could finish speaking, the void around her suddenly shattered, and a small, fair fist punched through the space with a "thud." As the spatial fragments fell, a white-haired, red-eyed girl walked in from the broken hole in the space.
"It's already over, which saves me a lot of trouble. I was just in seclusion for a while, but I didn't expect my disciple to get into a fight with my pet. What a mistake."
Paimon, who was dragging the young master aside with Kong, couldn't help but ask upon hearing this, "Disciple and pet? So, you're the young master's master? The one he met in the abyss?"
The girl didn't respond, but she noticed the young master being supported by Paimon and Kong. She walked over on her own and lifted the young master up with just one hand.
"Ha, he's injured like this. It seems he's been quite lax these past few years."
After casually tossing the young master into the shattered space behind her, the girl finally looked at the four people around her properly.
However, upon closer inspection, his brows furrowed slightly.
The little flying creature and the blond boy both possessed an extremely strange aura, completely unfathomable.
The guy holding the scepter... his aura was also extremely mixed, seemingly completely out of place with his appearance.
And the last one holding the wine gourd, Tun Tun actually got so close to him, which was completely abnormal.
Although his master had given it to him a long time ago, he had raised it for quite some time, but Tun Tun had never been as close to his master as he was to this person.
Could it be... that person?
A thought flashed through the girl's mind, and the arrogant expression on her face softened slightly.
"To be able to remove the primordial womb from Tun Tun's body without relying on any external power, it seems that you are all quite strong and have the qualifications to speak with me on equal terms."
Paimon was very curious about where the young master had fallen. He peered into the large black hole for a while before turning to ask, "Is the Tuntun you're talking about the Star-Devouring Whale? Was it your master's pet? But who would keep such a ferocious creature that could easily destroy a country as a pet?"
"Hey, little thing, I agree with you the most. Using the fetal sea of an entire planet to raise a pet is already quite strange. Apart from being somewhat ornamental, Tun Tun is weak, lacks interactivity, is greedy, and likes to throw tantrums. It always wants to run away from home and only wastes my cultivation time. It's really not a qualified pet."
The girl muttered to herself as she walked toward the Star-Devouring Whale. The Star-Devouring Whale seemed a little afraid of her and began to hide its massive body behind Xu Ning.
Paimon quietly approached Kong and whispered, "Young Master is such a good-for-nothing. He actually said that his master doesn't like to talk, and he hasn't been able to find out anything about her while learning from her... I think if we ask her a couple more questions, she'll tell us everything."
The girl walked up to Xu Ning, hesitated for a moment, and seemed unsure of how to address him.
Xu Ning spoke first.
"You're Xiao Su's disciple? Ha, I knew he couldn't stand being alone. I thought giving him a fish to raise would be enough, but I didn't expect him to have the mind to train a disciple..."
Upon hearing this, the girl had no more doubts and respectfully greeted Xu Ning, saying, "Skirk has met the God of Wine in person, and I have heard my master mention you."
"Who is your master? Did he raise this colossal whale in the primordial sea of wombs?"
Navelette, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up and asked Skirk.
Skirk paused for a moment. “Oh? I thought that since you were with Lord Saigong, you would know something about my master… The Evil Knight, Surtroch, is my master.”
Violet, Sora, and Paimon remained silent; they were names I'd never heard of.
"Huh? It seems Master's fame isn't high enough. What about that prophet, Viserfnir? The Golden Rhinedoth?"
The moment the name Rhein-Dörgården was mentioned, everyone except Xu Ning felt their hearts skip a beat.
