Yuuko ignored these two sycophants and walked past them.
And came before the others.
For some reason, as soon as Yuuko approached, a few people trembled slightly and hid behind him... protecting their faces with their hands.
Those two were the eighth Harbinger, Signora, and the eleventh Harbinger, Childe, from the Snezhnaya Fatui... This greatly puzzled the other Harbingers. Why cover your face when someone approaches?
No one is going to do anything to your face.
Yuuko noticed this, could only give an awkward smile, and pretended not to see it.
Afterward, he cleared his throat, scanned everyone around him, and shouted angrily:
"Archons of all nations! Follow me!"
And so, this incredibly luxurious team set off.
Their destination was Musk Reef, north of Inazuma and east of Mondstadt!
As for why they were going there, it was because that was the best way to reach Celestia.
It is said that a tall tower Domain exists within Musk Reef.
It is said that this tall tower leads to the cosmos, with a total of twelve floors.
The higher the floor, the closer one gets to the cosmos.
And climbing to the upper floors of the tower would bring them to the same height as Celestia!
Reaching that height would make ascending to Celestia much easier.
This was the information Lumine had given Yuuko earlier.
As for its veracity, Yuuko couldn't judge yet, but he felt that Lumine shouldn't be deceiving him at this point... Afterward, the group began to advance towards Musk Reef.
Along the way, the Hydro Archon walked beside Yuuko, clearing the path for him despite everyone else being present.
It was as if she was afraid Yuuko would be uncomfortable walking... Along the way, the group encountered a few unlucky Whopperflowers.
Just as Yuuko was about to casually deal with those Whopperflowers, the Hydro Archon stepped forward:
"Lord Phanes, please leave this matter to me."
With that, the Hydro Archon waved her hand, instantly conjuring hundreds of water spikes that twisted the unlucky Whopperflowers into pretzels.
Hmm... any monster that encountered this group on the road was truly out of luck... Afterward, the group continued to advance.
On the way, they suddenly encountered three Electro Lawachurls.
Just as Yuuko was about to make a move, the sycophantic Hydro Archon instantly acted again: "Lord Phanes, you can leave these trivial matters to me!"
Hmm... this Hydro Archon is really becoming more and more like a sycophant... If she truly wanted to clear the monsters on the road, she could have sent her subordinates to do it in advance.
But the Hydro Archon deliberately didn't do so, insisting on waiting until the group encountered monsters before publicly resolving them... She was practically a top-tier sycophant!
This scene also made the other Archons look strange... The one with the most significant change in expression was the Tsaritsa.
Recalling the Hydro Archon's actions, the Tsaritsa frowned deeply, as if facing a formidable enemy.
How is this guy even more of a sycophant than me?
Damn it! I was the first one to fawn!
The indignant Tsaritsa also joined in, glaring at the Hydro Archon... On the way, after finally shaking off the two sycophants, the Tsaritsa and the Hydro Archon.
Yuuko came to Morax and Venti's side, intending to chat with Morax a bit before they arrived.
Seeing Yuuko approach, Morax also put down Venti, whom he was carrying, and smiled:
"It seems you have something to ask me."
Yuuko shook his head: "No, you wouldn't tell me anyway, so I just came over to chat with you."
Morax looked at Yuuko with slight surprise, and after a long while, his expression returned to normal.
"Feel free to say whatever you want to chat about; consider this our last leisure before the big battle."
Yuuko nodded, then began:
"Morax, there's one thing I've always wanted to know. Assuming, and I mean assuming."
"Assuming I really am the Primordial Deity, then why hasn't that Imposter on Celestia noticed my existence until now?"
"If that Imposter truly wanted to kill the Primordial Deity, he should be more actively searching for the Primordial Deity."
"So, it should be very easy for the Heavenly Principles to detect me, especially since I didn't hide at all in the early stages."
"Why did they only start acting now?"
This was something Yuuko had always found strange.
He possessed the Pure White Element, but he had it since he transmigrated.
He had used it a few times before. Logically speaking, given the Elemental Power he used, which was so harmful to the environment.
Celestia shouldn't have failed to notice it.
Why was everything fine before, and only after reading 'the past events of the sun and moon' did they start to act?
The more he thought about it, the more Yuuko had the illusion that everything was pre-arranged... Faced with this question, Morax pondered for a long time before answering:
"Perhaps the Heavenly Principles truly hadn't detected your existence before?"
Yuuko immediately shook his head: "Impossible. All you Seven Archons recognize me one by one, and I don't believe the guy on Celestia would be slower to detect me than you."
Hearing this, Morax smiled faintly, then shook his head and remained silent.
After that, no matter what else Yuuko said, Morax remained silent.
Yuuko felt quite helpless about this and could only roll his eyes at the guy.
Fine, you Geo Archon, you always clam up at crucial moments, don't you... However, despite Morax's concealment, Yuuko once again confirmed a fact.
His existence was actually exposed from the very beginning.
Celestia had detected his existence from the start.
But if that's the case, various things become very strange... Many past events can no longer be explained logically... Indeed, Morax concealed many things.
As for what Morax concealed, Yuuko still had no way of knowing.
Afterward, Yuuko also didn't bother to ask Morax anymore, instead pondering other matters.
"Speaking of which, Lumine also doesn't know where she went. She clearly said she would come find me earlier..."
"And she said that going to the Spiral Abyss in Musk Reef would allow one to break through this false sky, making it easier to go to Celestia afterward."
"So what exactly does 'false sky' mean? Is the sky actually fake?"
Yuuko murmured continuously.
Perhaps hearing Yuuko's low murmurs, Morax actually leaned over again at this moment and initiated a conversation:
"Mr. Yuuko, what are your thoughts on the Kingdom of Khaenri'ah and the current Abyss forces?"
Faced with such an inexplicable question, Yuuko was stunned for a while, his expression very peculiar.
