Chapter 265 - Chapter 31: Prehistoric Boar

Ganyu smiled and glanced at Illustrious, then picked up a piece of meat and began eating. Because she usually ate here, she wasn't as surprised as Illustrious.

She chewed slowly, savoring the flavor, and finally swallowed the last bite. Looking at Xiangling, who was worried about the taste, Ganyu smiled and said, "Xiangling, your culinary skill is really improving."

Seeing that both of them said the meat she roasted was delicious, a smile appeared on Xiangling's face. "I'm glad you both like it! I was worried the heat might have been too high, making it taste bad, but it looks like this level was just right!"

"Actually, the wild boar you're eating is just an ordinary wild boar. Once, I discovered a Prehistoric Boar that had been frozen for 300 years in a cave. If we used that for roasting, it would definitely be ten times more delicious!"

"What? A Prehistoric Boar frozen for 300 years? Xiangling, hurry up and make it for me! I'll pay any price." Ganyu said excitedly.

Xiangling rubbed the back of her head and said awkwardly, "Uh! Sorry, I haven't managed to obtain that Prehistoric Boar frozen for 300 years, because it's too difficult to get."

"What makes it so difficult to obtain?" Illustrious asked.

"Next to the Prehistoric Boar, there is a monstrous Cryo Regisvine. It is very powerful and highly sensitive. If I approach even slightly, it reacts. Last time, I was almost frozen into an ice sculpture. It was truly too dangerous, but luckily, I was agile and quick enough to escape, so I wasn't turned into an ice sculpture." The yellow-clothed girl said proudly, placing her hands on her hips.

Ganyu slammed the table once and said angrily, "A mere Cryo Regisvine dares to obstruct our delicious food! It deserves ten thousand deaths! Xiangling! Where is that Prehistoric Boar? Lead the way, and we will help you kill the Cryo Regisvine and obtain the Prehistoric Boar."

"What? Really? That's great! I'll take you there, then!" Xiangling pulled Illustrious and Ganyu out of the restaurant. As she left, she shouted to the restaurant owner, "Dad, I'm heading out for a bit, I'll be back soon."

"Alright, no problem, Xiangling. Remember to be careful on the way." The restaurant owner shouted loudly.

"Got it, Dad." Xiangling replied.

"Hey! If you're going, go, but why drag me along? I don't even know you two." Illustrious said with a look of helplessness.

"Ah! I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Xiangling, and I am the new Head Chef and Vice Manager of Wanmin Restaurant." Xiangling introduced herself.

"Hello, my name is Ganyu, and I am the secretary to the Liyue Qixing." Ganyu nodded at Illustrious and said.

Seeing them introduce themselves so formally all of a sudden, Illustrious immediately smiled and said, "Hello, my name is Illustrious, and I am an ordinary person."

"Alright, now that we've finished introductions, let's keep going!" Xiangling continued pulling Illustrious and Ganyu toward the Prehistoric Boar.

"Wait, wait! I haven't finished eating yet! At least let me finish my meal before we go!" Illustrious shouted.

"Why bother eating now? We'll have Prehistoric Boar to eat later; isn't that better?" Ganyu said dismissively.

"Ganyu is right. Let's go! Our target is the Prehistoric Boar that has been frozen for 300 years." Xiangling said excitedly.

The three of them rushed forward powerfully. Xiangling was very confident in defeating the Cryo Regisvine, because on her right was Ganyu, the Qixing Secretary whose vision had reached Level 98, and on her left was the Silver-Haired Girl whom she recognized as the Ke Family's son-in-law, and who she heard had recently acquired a gnosis.

With such a powerful team, what is a mere Cryo Regisvine? They just needed to 'Dragon Ride the Face' and auto-attack their way through... Meanwhile, seeing Illustrious leave, Keqing, who was naked, didn't pay it any mind. She felt the surging elemental power within her body. The elemental power rapidly erupted from her, reaching Level 100, making it impossible for anyone to harbor any thought of resistance.

Keqing was very satisfied that her vision had finally reached Level 100. She put on her clothes, combed her hair, and stepped out of the room.

Today was the yuexing Competition, and also the day she would become the yuexing. She would not allow herself to be late. As for losing, that was simply impossible. Now that her vision had reached Level 100, she could be considered the strongest among all vision holders.

Keqing encountered her father and mother as she left the house. Her father saw her leaving and knew she was going to participate in the yuexing Competition. "Qing'er! Participation is what matters most. Winning or losing doesn't matter; just treat it as experience!"

Master Ke didn't expect Keqing to achieve final victory. After all, he knew his own daughter best; with her vision only at Level 45, such a low level meant she was merely cannon fodder among the participants.

"Your father is right. Anyway, we have our son-in-law now. She is the one who possesses a gnosis! With her around, no one dares to bully our Ke Family like before." Madam Ke chimed in from the side.

Madam Ke meant that your spouse is very powerful, Daughter, so you don't need to work so hard. Just lie back and enjoy the beauty of the world.

Keqing dismissed her parents' words and said, "Father, Mother, you don't need to say anymore. I will definitely secure this yuexing position."

"You child, why are you so stubborn!" Madam Ke sighed and said.

"Alright! Dear, let her go. This child is exactly as unruly as I was back in the day." Master Ke laughed. "Qing'er, seeing you so confident, has your strength increased recently?"

"Nothing can escape your discerning eye, Father." Keqing said without concealing anything.

Master Ke showed an expression that said, 'Just as I thought,' and said calmly, "Half a month ago your vision was only Level 45. Based on your usual leveling speed, you should have reached Level 48 by now. Am I right?"

Master Ke was usually very confident in his deductions, but today he was likely going to be proven wrong.

"Father! How could I have only gained three levels to a mere Level 48! I'm not afraid to tell you," Keqing said mysteriously, "Father, I have actually upgraded my vision to Level 100—that is, max level."

"What? You trained your vision to Level 100? How is that possible? It's only been half a month! Even with exceptional talent, you couldn't improve that fast!" Master Ke said in disbelief.

"Qing'er, we are your parents! How can you lie to us? That is wrong." Madam Ke criticized Keqing.

Madam Ke knew Keqing's situation best. For the past half month, Keqing had been busy serving and pleasing her son-in-law in bed, doing nothing else. If that could lead to max level, she and Master Ke would have maxed out their visions long ago.

Since her parents didn't believe her, Keqing had no choice but to show them the truth through action. A powerful aura erupted from Keqing's body.

This aura was so strong it immediately surpassed Master Ke's Level 61 vision and Madam Ke's Level 59 vision. Countless bolts of Electro Power continuously wrapped around her whole body, making Keqing look like an unparalleled Electro Archon.
