Chapter 205 Did It
Mo Ran looked at the dark night sky. The surrounding security had already dissipated under the attack just now, and everything seemed to have not changed.
Because of the existence of the system, other beings on the continent of Teyvat, except for their group of people, were unaware that they had just experienced a devastating disaster.
The Maintainer was nowhere to be found, and it was unclear whether he was still alive. The reddish blocks also disappeared.
The world returned to normal, but it only lasted for a moment.
An instant later, above the Tianqiu Valley, a piece of debris the size of a fingernail burst out with the vitality of a world. It was the body fragment of the Maintainer, and she was quickly recovering her body.
Mo Ran naturally didn't want to give her this opportunity. He didn't move, but in a flash, he was in the air, clenched his right fist, and punched out.
There was no fancy moves, no skills, just a simple punch straight ahead, but it made the Maintainer feel the fear like a mortal child facing an adult. This Maintainer, who had almost no joy or sorrow since his birth, was actually afraid today, and was afraid to the extreme.
With several loud rumbling noises, the Maintainer's body, which had not yet fully recovered, flew backwards, and the surrounding space was destroyed one after another. Countless sonic booms vibrated in the air, but they could not be transmitted because Mo Ran was holding it in one hand to prevent any more accidents.
After a moment of trance, the Maintainer came to his senses and his divine power poured out like a flood, stabilizing his finally restored body. When he looked at the man in black, his eyes were filled with anger and fear.
But she hid her fear deeply, because she thought that gods should not have such emotions. The Maintainer opened her jade mouth and said, "You are just an ant, so arrogant!"
"The price of challenging the gods is death!" The Maintainer shouted, his face ferocious, no longer as noble as before, like a madman.
Divine power surged towards the man in black like an overwhelming force. Wherever it passed, space shattered with a loud bang, deafening the ears. The wheel of time stopped for a moment before starting to turn again.
Facing this equally world-destroying blow, Mo Ran did not move. As the torrent of divine power arrived, his black clothes swayed backwards and his long hair stood on end, but he did not take a single step back.
The torrent of divine power came to a sudden stop three feet before reaching where Mo Ran was. No matter how the maintainer drove it, it could not advance any further.
"Come here!" Mo Ran spoke lightly. His voice was very light, but it carried an irresistible majesty. The torrent of divine power was broken in an instant and disappeared without a trace.
After hearing these two words, the Maintainer's body suddenly flew towards the man in black, as if an invisible big hand grabbed her and made her unable to move.
Mo Ran looked at this god who used to be so high and mighty, and said calmly: "Go back and tell Tianli that next time you make a move, it's best to kill with one strike!"
"Otherwise, what is happening today will be His fate!"
After saying that, Mo Ran flicked his fingers and sent the Maintainer back to the Sky Island like a bug. Then he looked at the broken void, waved his hand casually, repaired the space, and then slowly fell to the ground.
"puff!"
When Mo Ran stopped using his ultimate fighting tactics, blood surged throughout his body and a pool of black blood spurted out of his mouth, splashing several feet away. He then fell backwards to the ground. Although his eyes were still open, his body was motionless.
Ying was still immersed in the battle just now, but Kong had already woken up. He pulled her and hurried over to check on her, anxiously asking, "Mo Ran! How are you? Are you okay?"
"It's okay, but I estimate that his body will not be able to move within ten days. Don't worry about the law of nature. He won't come down for the time being." Mo Ran said lightly. In his current appearance, he didn't look as majestic as before. Instead, he looked like a tired young man.
Ying looked at him like this, and thought of what she had said not long ago. Her eyes flickered a little, and she whispered, "Yes, I'm sorry..."
Mo Ran hummed lightly, and did not mention the previous incident again. Instead, he smiled softly and said, "Now, you don't have to hide from Kong anymore!"
There was not much hatred between him and Ying to begin with, and at this point, there was no hatred at all. Anyway, even if it was just because of that kick, Mo Ran was not a narrow-minded person.
The yellow-haired girl was stunned. Looking at this face that was so ordinary that it was hard to describe, she felt as if something was pulling at her heart. Her eyes trembled slightly as she asked, "Why? Why did you do this?"
Mo Ran said calmly: "There are always some things that must be accomplished even if it costs one's life. I can't bear to see my friends sad. Your brother happens to be my friend, so of course I have to fulfill my unwavering ideals."
Ying continued, "You and I have probably only met twice. Once, your family was almost destroyed because of me, and once, I came to you to seek cooperation and give you my sword."
"Besides, as you mentioned before, my brother is your friend, but you have only known each other for less than three months. For some people, this is just the beginning."
"Just these are not enough for you to do so much for us, please tell me, why did you do this?"
Kong noticed that his sister was not in the right mood and placed his hand on her back. The slight warmth made her feel a little relieved, but at the same time, she began to wait for her answer.
"Why?" Mo Ran muttered to himself in a low voice. As he was thinking, he noticed the change in Ying's words and attitude just now, and couldn't help but smile.
"Actually, I can't really explain why, but I think the closest answer is that there is someone in my heart that I always want to see but can't see."
“Perhaps only those who have truly experienced loneliness can empathize with those who are going through the same thing.”
"Since you are the most important person to Kong, I will help him fulfill his wish. This is the contract I made. As a Liyue person, I must carry out the contract to the end and fulfill this promise with my friend!"
"Besides, three months is already a long time for me!"
Hearing this, the brother and sister were stunned. They looked at the man in black, one on each side, helping him up. Paimon finally appeared at this time. After hearing the news that the brother and sister were traveling together, he almost fell from the air.
"Wait! Can one of you three explain to me what happened in between? Paimon also wants to know the process of your reconciliation!"
Mo Ran, Kong and Ying looked at each other, all smiling without saying a word.
Just like that, with Paimeng's muttering, they set out on the journey back to Liyue Harbor. Because Mo Ran's body could no longer withstand the pressure in the space rift, they could only go back on foot.
Ying looked at the black-clad woman who couldn't move and needed them to hold her up, and asked curiously, "Since the strength you just displayed could crush her, why didn't you just attack Sky Island?"
"Yes, if that's the case, why don't we just kill the one in the sky? Anyway, she was beaten badly by you just now." Kong didn't know that the one just now was just the maintainer, not the law of nature itself.
Mo Ran couldn't help but roll his eyes and sighed, "You two brothers, you must have incompatible fates, right? Before you met, one was the princess of the Abyss Cult, and the other was a famous traveler."
"After the reunion, why are you the same as Paimon!"
"Hey, Paimon, did you hear me?" Little Paimon put his hands on his waist, his big eyes flashing with useless cold light until he stared at a man in black.
Mo Ran turned a blind eye and continued to explain: "Look at me now. It's a bit difficult to fight a Maintainer, let alone kill them. God knows what kind of horror is up there!"
"It does seem to be the case." Kong muttered to himself with a thoughtful look on his face.
Ying nodded in agreement.
Paimeng was still making a fuss. The purpose of her doing this was, of course, so that she could cook for Mo Ran after he recovered. Any hesitation would be considered disrespectful to the food.
The night passed, and outside the Yaksha Temple in the suburbs of Lisha, the four people saw a rising sun from the sea of clouds. The light drove away the darkness and brought warmth.
A shadow floats alone, occasionally swaying between three intersecting shadows, as if two young people are taking their elderly and naughty children out for a happy outing.
Ying did not open the space crack, but took them directly back to Liyue Harbor, because Mo Ran's current body could not withstand the pressure of the space crack, and it seemed like a good idea to take a walk with important people.
Mo Ran looked at the two travelers on both sides and sighed in his heart: I finally saw this scene. It was worth it for this one-on-one fight with the Maintainer!
In fact, a long time ago, when he saw the scene of the reunion in the game, he wanted to tear the screen apart and stop his sister for Kong. Unfortunately, it was too unrealistic for him at that time.
But now it seems that he did it, and did it well.
