Chapter 100: The Temptation from the Strange Bird

Three days had passed since the lady had a heart-to-heart talk with Wendy. During this time, Qin came forward to vouch for Akira Takagi on the basis of his help, and no one was openly monitoring Akira Takagi's actions in Mondstadt.

Takagi Akira felt a moment of regret that he no longer had to accept Noel's personal service.

Xiao Cheng, who was eager to return to Liyue to report the news, also left Mondstadt two days ago with a team of Knights of Favonius who were clearing the trade route to Liyue and embarked on the journey back to Liyue.

During these three days, Gao Muming had been secretly paying attention to the movements of Lao Wan and the other two.

He watched as Lao Wan and the other two used the money he gave them to buy a poorly managed store and start a new life in Mond, while Mond's business was still in urgent need of recovery.

Gao Muming, who was hiding in the corner, felt very relieved.

Just at this moment, a person passed by Gao Muming and bumped into him seemingly accidentally.

Gao Muming grabbed the other person's hand that was about to reach his pocket and pulled the person into the alley.

Gao Muming grabbed the other person's hand with one hand and the other hand grabbed the other person's neck and pushed the person against the wall, with a very ferocious look on his face.

"You're so brave to put your hand in my pocket."

The man whose throat was grabbed by Gao Muming's face flushed red. He was having trouble breathing and could only use his still-free hands to repeatedly slap Gao Muming's hand that was grabbing his neck.

Gao Muming looked at the note in his hand and frowned slightly.

"Is this a message you want to give me?"

Thinking of this, Gao Muming released the hand that was pinching the other person's throat.

Pulling the note out of the other person's hand, Gao Muming looked at the guy who was bent over and coughing, and spoke coldly.

"Are you here to pass on a message to me? Remember not to do this again in the future, otherwise you know the consequences."

"Ahem, ahem ~ No, I just kept hearing about your strength from the boss, and I wanted to test your abilities and verify whether the rumors are true."

Opening the note in his hand, Gao Muming read the words on it while chatting with the other party without much concern.

"You want to test my quality? Do you think I'm alone now and you can use the numbers to control me? How did you find out? How do you feel?"

"I think I have some strength, but I am powerless in front of you. The strength you have shown is much stronger than what the boss said. I was just looking at the world from a narrow perspective."

"It's been a few years since I last fought in front of your boss, Monster Bird. It's only natural that I've become stronger."

After replying to him, Gao Muming withdrew his gaze from the note, crumpled the paper into a ball and held it in his palm. The element of ice surged around him and his eyes were full of anger. Seeing tiny ice crystals appearing around Gao Muming due to the low temperature, the person who delivered the message felt fear reaching its peak.

"Go back and tell your boss to put away his unnecessary thoughts. He has no control over the people under me. If he wants to threaten me with what's on the note, I don't mind having another fight with him."

Facing Gao Muming's anger, the person who delivered the message couldn't help but swallow his saliva. He turned around with trembling legs and was about to escape, but was stopped by Gao Muming.

"Wait a moment."

After hearing Gao Muming's voice, even though his body was trembling a little, he still stood still and dared not move at all.

"Oh, and one more thing. Tell him that I don't agree with what he invited me to do. Get lost."

When he heard Gao Muming asking him to leave, his originally stiff body felt relieved and he quickly left as if he was escaping.

Seeing the other person leave, Gao Muming curled his lips in dissatisfaction.

"My good mood has been ruined. If you want to cause trouble, just do it yourself. You want to drag me into it. But you want to use Lao Wan and his men to threaten me. It seems that the monster bird that has grown stronger in recent years has become a little arrogant."

"I've let them know that I've obtained the Eye of God through what happened to them just now. That should help them stay quiet for a while and stop getting mad at me. At least they won't target Lao Wan and the others anymore."

"However, judging from the crime committed by the treasure robbers, it was indeed a great opportunity to take advantage of the end of the dragon disaster in Mondstadt and the relief of the Knights of Favonius who were responsible for protecting Mondstadt. The monster bird is indeed quite capable."

"It just so happens that I've been sitting around in Mondstadt for a long time, so I might as well go out and take a look around the Wind Dragon Ruins. This way, I can avoid that weird bird guy getting into trouble and implicating me as a member of the treasure-stealing group when Mondstadt conducts a search."

Gao Muming took action as soon as he thought about it and walked directly towards the city gate.

When passing by the Adventurer's Guild, I happened to meet Ying and Paimon walking out of the Adventurer's Guild. Paimon was still talking beside Ying.

"Another commission to escort supplies. I feel like we've been doing this kind of mission lately. Ying, don't you think these missions lack the feel of an adventurer?"

"Little Paimon, do you want to do a mission to explore the secret realm? But that kind of mission takes a long time to execute and requires replenishment of consumables. We are already short of Mora. If we really do an exploration mission, Mora on hand might be a problem. Then Paimon won't be able to go out to eat delicious food."

"Eh? No good food? I don't want it. That won't do."

"So now these tasks that can get paid in a timely manner are more suitable for us."

"I really wish there was a way to easily earn a lot of Mora. By the way, how about we sell some of the treasures we found in the secret realm?"

"Didn't Gao Muming say before that Mond just went through chaos and business is still slowly recovering. If you sell it now, not only will there be no buyers, but it will also be hard to get a good price. It's best to wait for a while."

"Well, let's hurry up and carry out the commission for the sake of delicious food."

Seeing Ying and Paimon finished their conversation, Gao Muming, who was in a depressed mood just now, suddenly had a brighter expression when he looked at Ying. He walked over to greet them with a smile on his face.

"What a coincidence, you guys are going out of town too?"

"Yes, we are going out of town on a mission."

"Then let's walk together for a while."

"it is good."

After a brief conversation, Ying and Gao Muming walked towards the city gate together.

"Where are you going? I plan to visit the Wind Dragon Ruins. I will probably stay there for a few days."

"Unfortunately, they are heading in two different directions. We are here to escort supplies through the Whispering Forest."

"I see. It's a bit regrettable that we can only walk across the bridge together."

After Gao Muming expressed his feelings, he wanted to stay with Ying for a while longer and gradually slowed down his pace.

What surprised Gao Muming was that Ying also slowed down her pace as if responding to Gao Muming.

Despite slowing down their pace, the two soon arrived at the separated bridge. For the first time, Takagi Akira felt that the bridge outside Mond City was a little short.
