Chapter 669 A Familiar Hall
Xu Ning noticed the unusual situation from afar.
Ying stood very close to the Hilichurl, but the Hilichurl seemed not to see her at all and just walked straight ahead.
They looked just like the Hilichurls I had seen in the Deep Rock Abyss.
Xu Ning carried Ed to a nearby spot, and as soon as Ed stood up, the first thing he did was to check the Hilichurl's arm.
"Phew, no scarf, it's not him."
It wasn't Calibel. Ed breathed a sigh of relief, and his tense expression slowly relaxed.
"But this Hilichurl is so strange, completely different from any I've ever seen."
Ying nodded and pointed in the direction of the path, "It seems to have no interest in us at all, and only wants to get over there."
Xu Ning glanced over but didn't notice anything unusual.
"Let's go and take a look."
Xu Ning's original intention was that he and Ying could go together.
After all, they had encountered many dangers in the Abyss of Layered Rocks.
However, Ed insisted on exploring everything about the Hilichurls and insisted on going with them, leaving Xu Ning with no choice but to let him go.
The Hilichurls didn't walk very fast, and soon they arrived at a cave at the base of the rock wall.
A thick blue mist hung over the entrance to the cave, making it impossible to see what was inside.
The Hilichurls went inside almost without stopping.
Ed stopped and looked around at his surroundings with a puzzled expression.
"Strange, I've been to this place many times, how come I never noticed there was a cave here before?"
Upon hearing Ed's mutterings, Xu Ning instantly became alert.
Even now, Xu Ning doesn't know whose memory this part of her life belongs to.
It is unclear whether this is merely a script of memory or a past that may have an impact on future generations.
However, in the world of Teyvat, memory itself is a very peculiar thing.
This left Xu Ning no choice but to be cautious.
The cave that Ed had mentioned suddenly appeared before us.
Although it's impossible to know whether it was originally part of this memory or if it changed due to our arrival, it's simply impossible to guess.
But we had to be extremely cautious and go in to investigate.
Upon entering the cave, Xu Ning and Ying couldn't help but exchange a glance.
This feeling of déjà vu is too strong.
It felt like stepping back into the ruins beneath the towering abyss of rock.
The pillars and patterns supporting the hall all subtly echoed the city itself.
Along the long corridor, you can see Hilichurls kneeling and worshipping everywhere. After kneeling, they get up, walk forward a bit, and then kneel again.
“What are they worshipping? They look so… devout…”
Ed seemed to find it somewhat difficult to understand.
Xu Ning knew that Ed still regarded these Hilichurls as his own people from Kanria.
The Kanriyans have never worshipped demon gods, so he naturally found it difficult to understand the behavior of these Hilichurls in front of him.
“Look at the direction they are kneeling in, they are all pointing towards the entrance at the top of the steps. Let’s go there and take a look.”
The entrance was a blue-purple light curtain.
Fearing that enemies might appear inside, Xu Ning deliberately quickened his pace and entered before Ying.
With a sudden flash of light, Xu Ning found himself once again in a palace.
Ying and Ed followed closely behind and entered the area.
Seeing that the three of them had not been separated by the teleportation portal, Xu Ning breathed a slight sigh of relief.
"There's nothing here at first glance, but it seems there should be another portal inside. Hmm?"
Xu Ning took a few steps forward and immediately sensed something was wrong.
