Chapter 324 Zhongli's Speculation, Yu Guan's Helplessness
Under Nasita's masterful control, green energy continuously flowed into Xunfeng's chest at a low frequency, constantly healing him.
Feeling the energy waves brimming with vitality, Xun Feng's pale face gradually regained color, and his skin slowly returned to normal.
After a long wait, Nasita lowered her hand and let out a long sigh of relief.
"Next, let's leave it to Ying."
As soon as she finished speaking, Ying, who had been waiting at the door for a long time, walked in.
"There are still remnants of abyssal power within you, so let me help you purify them."
"Thank you for your help."
Xunfeng, whose condition had improved, slowly sat up, then leaned against the wall, looking at Ying with gratitude.

"Morax, I sense something is wrong."
As he spoke, Gui Zhong glanced warily out the window, then covered the small house with dust to prevent outside eavesdropping.
Zhongli nodded in agreement when she heard what she said.
"It seems you've also sensed our presence, lurking in the shadows and watching us intently."
"I tried to use the power of Dustfall to lock onto the target's location, but it doesn't seem to work. There's dust everywhere on Teyvat, I didn't expect someone to be able to block my lock."
"In the end, we've been targeted by the forces of Heaven. Although I cherish this time, I have to tell you the truth: this is just a parallel world."
After saying that, Zhongli sighed softly.
To avoid any mishaps for Gui Zhong, Zhong Li had no choice but to tell her the truth so that she could be on guard.
"Huh?!"
After exclaiming in surprise, Gui rubbed his eyes, still puzzled.
"The parallel world is just a world created by the principles of Heaven, while in the world I live in... you have already sacrificed yourself in the war of Guiliyuan. The purpose of Heaven pulling me to the parallel world should be... to prevent me from threatening Heaven in the original world."
After pondering for a while, Zhongli crossed his arms and said earnestly.
“My first teacher—the God of Light—was sealed away by the Heavenly Principles five thousand years ago. A year ago, he successfully awoke and began to gradually break the seal. He should have arrived in Nata by now. I suspect… the Heavenly Principles are planning something big, which is why they sent me away, the eldest of the seven gods, to prevent me from providing support.”
Gui Zhong, who had been listening silently, suddenly smiled, and then, amidst a cloud of dust, the Feathered Stork made a dazzling entrance.
"You... are not Gui Zhong? Who are you?"
Looking at the stranger in front of him, Zhongli took a step back warily, then stared at her seriously.
"Morax, as the oldest of the seven rulers of the mortal realm, I never expected you to have such rebellious thoughts. You really disappoint me."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Guan teleported and, in the blink of an eye, raised his hand to support Zhong Li's chin.
Feeling the boundless power contained within his palm, even Zhongli, who was most skilled in defense, dared not make a rash move at this moment.
The next moment, Gui Zhong, who had just returned from gathering crops in the fields, was about to share with Zhong Li a large pumpkin he had found in the field that day when he saw Zhong Li having his chin held by a strange woman.
Sensing something was wrong, Gui Zhong pushed the collection basket onto the table next to him with a palm strike, then kicked up a cloud of dust and rushed towards the feathered stork.
However, the dust particles all deflected away just before touching the stork, escaping without harming it in the slightest.
"Gui Zhong, this is my... friend, you don't need to be nervous."
To prevent Gui Zhong from getting hurt because of her, Zhong Li quickly fabricated a lie.
"So that's how it is, but why does she look like she's about to hit someone?"
"Uh... because I owe someone a little Mora, which is really embarrassing to admit."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhong Li turned his head away, looking slightly embarrassed.
"Honestly, as the creator of Mora, how could you make such a trivial mistake? How careless!"
After saying that, Gui Zhong smiled and took out a silk bag from his sleeve. He then walked up to Yu Guan and placed the bag in her hand.
"..."
"Morax didn't default on his debts on purpose. Here are five thousand Morax, that should be enough, right?"
"Enough, that's enough..."
After weighing the Mora in his hand, Yu Guan nodded helplessly.
