Chapter 137: The Chief Husband
Mondstadt, Office of the Master of the Knights of the West Wind.
Qin stood in front of the window, looking at the peaceful Mondstadt, but sighed softly.
"Squeak~"
The wooden door hinges make a sour sound.
It's time for the office door to be maintained... Qin suddenly turned around and looked at the person coming: "Senior Diluc, did you find anything?"
Diluc shook his head, still expressionless: "No, the other party did it very covertly, and Mondstadt City was not very stable at that time, so there were even fewer traces that could be found."
After they returned to Mondstadt by dragon, they learned that when they were fighting against the demonic tide, an unknown force broadcast the scene of their battle with the demonic tide live in three locations: Mondstadt City, Qingquan Town and Xingluo Lake.
The photographer's skills were very good, the angles were clever, and he even did some fine-tuning to make the three of them and the traveler look like warriors facing the disaster alone. They were so majestic that they didn't even dare to confirm the image. The people in it are themselves.
There are already rumors in the city of Mondstadt that they are the people chosen by Lord Barbatos, the God of Wind, and are responsible for protecting Mondstadt - otherwise, how could they be recognized by the Dragon of the East Wind and fight with the dragon?
Qin and Diluc fell silent, thinking about which force had the motive to do such a thing and what they could gain by doing so.
"Generally speaking, when encountering this kind of thing, I would first suspect the beneficiary, but..." Qin's lips moved, looking hesitant.
"But by far, the biggest beneficiaries of this are the two of us and the families behind us."
Diluc filled in what Qin had not said. He looked calm and told the truth: "Yora and the Laurence family need not say more. Travelers are rootless duckweeds in Mondstadt, and they will not stay in Mondstadt for a long time. So even if they Gaining reputation cannot turn it into visible benefits as quickly and efficiently as we can.”
"...That's right."
Qin nodded with a complicated expression: "When I learned about this incident, the first thing I thought of was that this incident was planned or participated in the planning by the Gunnhild family, but then I felt that it didn't look like... where is senior Diluc? ?”
"Absolutely. It's just that I'm pretty sure that the Legenfund family can't do this kind of thing, let alone do it without me." Diluc's tone was calm and confident.
Now that the entire Legenfund family is under his substantial control, it is natural that these things cannot be confirmed.
Diluc looked out the window: "The knight chosen by the God of Wind, the guardian of Mondstadt, the darling of Lord Barbatos... Now in Mondstadt, you, me, and Yora already have such titles."
"From a certain perspective, there is no fallacy in these titles." Qin also turned her gaze to the window and pursed her lips: "It was indeed Lord Barbatos who chose us, and we did protect Mondstadt. As for the end, Lord Barbatos Nostalgic darling..."
She opened her mouth, her expression a bit helpless, a bit dumbfounded, and extremely complicated: "It can only be him."
"Yes, besides Chen Tianfeng, who else can be called the [Wind God's Favorite]? Although he may not want to agree." Diluc sighed.
Even though Mondstadt is a free city-state and the Wind God is the god of freedom, their gods are too free.
Diluc threw these complicated thoughts out of his mind and suddenly realized something. He looked at Qin, his eyes slightly surprised: "You don't seem to want to stop the rumors?"
"Senior Diluc saw it."
Qin did not deny it, but nodded slightly: "I really don't want to stop the spread of rumors, as long as they are positive."
"Why?" Diluc's heart moved slightly and he guessed: "The Gunnhild family?"
"Some, but not all."
Qin shook her head and gave the answer: "The other part is because of Yura."
"Yura?"
"Well, Yora. In fact, before we went to the Wind Dragon Ruins, Yora and I had arranged for the Knights' Propaganda Department to assist [Dandelion Knight Jean Gunnhild and Spray Knight Yora Lawrence to resist the disaster and save Mongolia." De’s deeds have begun to be publicized.”
"Why?"
"Senior Diluc should be aware of Yora's situation in Mondstadt."
Qin looked into Diluc's eyes and said seriously: "Yora needs this honor more than us."
Yora was her friend, but she couldn't provide much help to her or the Lawrence family. Over the past thousand years, the Mondstadt people's view of the Lawrence family has long become a terrifying inertial torrent, a right that is difficult to change.
It was not easy for Youla to get a chance to turn around. She could not and did not allow herself to wipe out this extremely rare hope for Youla with her own hands.
Diluc suddenly said: "Count me in."
"Um?"
Qin was stunned.
"I said, count me in."
Diluc crossed his arms and remained expressionless: "As long as I am involved, no one will dare to usurp Yula's glory, even if her surname is Lawrence."
Anyone in Mondstadt who has the ability to usurp Yula's glory will know his past and what he hates most. As long as he is involved, anyone who wants to tamper with the facts must consider whether he can bear the most severe revenge of the Legenfund family.
"Senior Diluc..."
Qin pursed her lips and was about to say something when she noticed something and looked towards the wooden door of the office.
"Squeak~"
The sound of the wooden door hinges sounded again, and two figures, one large and one small, pushed the door open and entered.
"We're back!"
Paimon waved his hand with a pure smile.
"Yeah, thank you for your hard work."
Qin coughed lightly, her expression became serious, and she looked at Ying and Eula: "Did you gain anything?"
Ying and Eula shook their heads together.
"It's okay, the other party is too cunning, it doesn't matter if we can't find them. As long as they continue to act, they will definitely reveal more flaws." Qin comforted.
Unless the other party's purpose is really just to help the four of them promote, but how is it possible.
"I hope so." Eula took a breath, her eyes turned to Qin and Diluk, a little curious: "What were you talking about before?"
The atmosphere seemed a little wrong.
"We..."
"We were talking about who is the most worthy favorite of the God of Wind."
Diluk's expression was not strange at all - still expressionless: "Then we came to the same answer."
"The favorite of the God of Wind..."
Ying, Eula and Paimon looked at each other and said in unison: "It must be Tianfeng/Meteorite Man!"
"Meteorite Man?"
Diluk's expression was rarely surprised: "Who? Chen Tianfeng?"
"Hey, this is the nickname Paimon gave Tianfeng."
Ying coughed lightly and rubbed Paimon's hair with some amusement.
I don't know if Tianfeng is out of danger, and where he is with Wendy now.
...
Chen Tianfeng and Wendy returned to their residence in Mondstadt, the two-story building.
Before opening the door, the two noticed something wrong.
There is someone inside.
Chen Tianfeng looked at Wendy with a questioning look. Wendy first raised a finger, then shook his head gently, indicating that there was only one person inside, but he didn't know who this person was.
Chen Tianfeng retracted his gaze, put his palm on the hilt of the knife, held his breath, quietly approached the door, and then pushed it open!
Chen Tianfeng quickly locked onto the figure who broke into the residence, and was about to draw his knife, but suddenly froze.
The man had no intention of hiding, and looked at him with a smile. He had purple hair and purple eyes, and was wearing a coat. He looked elegant and dangerous. There was a colorful cloud made of water elements at his feet.
Ye Lan looked at the stunned Chen Tianfeng, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly: "Long time no see, my husband, I'm here to take you home."
