Genshin Impact: I am best at sacrifice, don't cry

"Dan Feng, although you are the Dragon Lord, you acted too impulsively this time!"

"If our teachings over the past 100 years have not helped you grow, then let's give it another 100 years."

"Lord Longzun, the people of Fengrao are full of tricks, so you must not act rashly!"

"..."

Nan Dou leaned casually against the wall outside Dan Feng's residence, listening to the dragon masters inside denouncing Dan Feng.

For some reason, I felt a bit like when I was a child, when a teacher criticized naughty students, even though Master Long was indeed Dan Feng's teacher.

Dan Feng was in the wrong this time. It was he who instructed Nan Dou to change the destination of the Star Shuttle, and he did not expect to get into a fight with the Fengrao people.

Therefore, in the face of the dragon masters' condemnation, he had no choice but to remain silent. This was the price he paid for his willful behavior.

Fortunately, this was Dan Feng’s first mistake, and it did not cause any serious consequences.

The dragon masters left very quickly. Dan Feng was now like a piece of unpolished jade and was not qualified to leave the Dragon Master Council.

"Have you heard enough? If you have, come in."

Dan Feng's voice came from the yard, and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry.

Nan Dou shrugged, put his hands in his pockets, and jumped over the courtyard wall with a light jump.

Looking at Dan Feng standing quietly with his back to him, Nan Dou took off his sunglasses and said in a rogue tone, "Brother Feng, do you want me to get rid of them?"

Dan Feng turned around and replied in a nonchalant manner: "Not yet, it hasn't come to that point yet."

Dan Feng had long been accustomed to Nan Dou's occasional crazy behavior during the hundred years they had been together. He would even cooperate with him expressionlessly. This could be considered a unique way for the two to regulate their emotions.

After adjusting his emotions, Dan Feng said to Nan Dou with some melancholy: "I want to get rid of the control of the dragon masters. Do you have any good suggestions?"

"Ahem, you finally asked the right person."

"About treason... ahem, no, I've been thinking about how to shut those old guys up for a long time."

"As the Dragon Lord, how can you let those old guys who have half of their bodies sunk into the ancient sea tell you what to do? This is simply going against the will of Heaven!"

"Come, look at this. I have prepared it for you a long time ago, just waiting for you to say this today."

As soon as he finished speaking, Nan Dou quickly took out a stack of information half a meter thick from the storage item.

"This is……"

Dan Feng's eyes suddenly widened.

"This is the plan I wrote, titled [On How the Dragon Lord's Regime Will Develop]."

"The content detailed and specific plans on how to gain control of the power within the Chiming Clan, and how to enhance the reputation and fame of the Chiming Clan in Xianzhou Luofu."

Nan Dou handed the plan to Dan Feng with great pride and gave a brief introduction enthusiastically.

Dan Feng looked through the plan for a while under great pressure, then silently put it on the ground.

Suddenly, Dan Feng clapped his hands on Nan Dou's shoulders, his eyes full of trust: "I will grant you the power, and the rest is up to you."

"No, no, no, Dan Feng, you can't leave this matter entirely to me. As the Dragon Lord, you must cooperate with me."

“First, we have to make money!”

Nan Dou knew that Dan Feng didn't see anything and didn't care.

“How do I make money?”

Dan Feng asked with some curiosity.

"In the past hundred years, I have commissioned Teacher Ganlu to conduct an investigation and found a way for the Chiming clan to make money."

"That's... the elixir!"

"Over the past thousands of years, our Chiming clan has accumulated a large number of prescriptions, especially the successive Dragon Lords who can pass them down through memory."

"The only difficulty now is the replacement of some extinct medicinal materials."

In fact, there are other ways to make money besides elixirs, but Nan Dou didn’t elaborate on them.

In fact, elixirs are one of the main ways for the Chiming people to make money.

It’s just that Nan Dou wants to carry this method forward.

With the seed of hope in his body, Nan Dou is qualified to become the new generation Shennong.

"The second step is to develop power and win over talents!"

"Just like the Luofu Jianshou Jingliu we met a few days ago, it is necessary to maintain a friendly relationship with a potential stock like her."

"We need to establish good relations with the Engineering and Manufacturing Department, Tianbo Department, Danding Department, etc."

"As long as the gift is given in your name, it is not considered a bribe. At most, it is a symbol of friendship among the Chiming clan."

"And the general of the Immortal Boat..."

Nan Dou had a good idea. Their Chiming clan did not need much power, but their status must not be low, and it would be easier to get things done if they had wide connections.

After all, the number of people in the Chiming tribe is small, and many things are beyond their reach.

"The last step is charity!"

"Charity?" Dan Feng didn't understand again.

"That's right. The Xianzhou people have a long lifespan. As long as we leave a good impression on them, that benefit will last for hundreds of years."

"All that's left is..."

The two of them seriously discussed the development issues of the Chiming tribe for a whole day.

After this day, Dan Feng's impression of Nan Dou changed again.

The two young men acted extremely efficiently and started taking action the next day.

Facts have proved that the title of Dragon Lord is really useful.

Four hundred years have passed since the last Dragon Lord was reincarnated, not to mention the members of the Vajra Clan who were born in these four hundred years.

Those members of the Vajra Clan who were born in the era of the previous Dragon Lord are extremely supportive of the Dragon Lord.

However, a problem arose immediately. The Dragon Master Council had also been developing its power during the three hundred years of the Dragon Master's transformation, so much so that Nan Dou and Dan Feng were reported to the Dragon Master Council by spies as soon as they took action.

So, the next day, the dragon masters maintained the same lineup as last time and came to Long Zun’s mansion again to demand an explanation.

"Lord Longzun, the clan's industry has been stable for hundreds of years. Isn't it too risky to change it rashly?"

Although Huanyu was asking, his tone left no room for doubt.

This time, Dan Feng also stood up and retorted: "There has been no progress in hundreds of years. Doesn't this mean that the industry in the clan has no development!"

"If the Chiming tribe wants to prosper again, how can they do that without changing the status quo?"

Dan Feng's words left Huanyu speechless. In his opinion, it was a good thing that the industry of the Chiming tribe had remained stable for hundreds of years, which also confirmed Dan Feng's words.

However, he would not give up easily, so he regained his composure and said, "It's not that the clan has not tried to expand its industry, but the number of people is ultimately not comparable to that of the Xianzhou people, and most of the attempts made ended up in vain."

"Lord Longzun has just woken up a hundred years ago. How can he understand the business world?"

"The tribe is relatively stable now. If something goes wrong, how can we explain it to the diligent tribe members?"

Huanyu's powerful words made Dan Feng hesitate, but when he saw Nan Dou standing beside him showing a disapproving expression, he instantly felt confident.

"You won't know the result until you try. It would be too arbitrary to deny it without even trying."

"Give me ten years. If there is no result, I will not mention this matter anymore."

Dan Feng spoke to Huanyu in a tough manner.

"I think it would be best to discuss this matter after a few years. By then, Lord Longzun will have sorted out the affairs of the clan and will understand our painstaking efforts."

But it is obvious that Huan Ying does not want to follow his rhythm, and the main strategy is to drag it out.

Nan Dou knew very well that as long as it happened for the first time, there would be endless excuses to shirk responsibility afterwards.

Dan Feng narrowed his eyes and looked at Huanyu, and Huanyu did not give in either. The atmosphere between the two gradually became tense.

In this situation, Nan Dou couldn't speak up, after all, he was just a guard of the Dragon Lord.

At this moment, Ganlu, who had a high reputation in the Dragon Master Council, stood up.

"Lord Long is young and full of vigor..."

Ganlu's words attracted the attention of the two people.

Huanyu seemed a little surprised. In the Dragon Master Council, Ganlu and Long Zun were the closest, and therefore they were rejected by most people in the council.

Dan Feng was very calm, waiting for Ganlu's next words.

"Lord Long Zun is young and full of vigor, and he has just assumed power in the clan, so naturally he wants to show his strength to realize his ambitions."

"Looking back, most of the Dragon Lords of previous generations have been like this, so I think we should give Dragon Lord this opportunity."

The Dragon Masters are not unaware of this, but what they care about from the beginning to the end is losing the power in their hands.

Huanyu saw Dan Feng's tough attitude, so he had to compromise and said, "Ten years is too long. One year. If there is no success after one year, then Long Zun please put your thoughts on hold."

"Yes." Dan Feng nodded and agreed.

Huanyu was stunned for a moment when he saw Danfeng agreed decisively. Then he waved his hand and left with a group of dragon masters.

But on the way back, Huanyu glanced at Ganlu who was walking alone at the end. Her performance today made him make up his mind about what he had been hesitating about.

"It's time to let Ganlu enter the Danding Division..."

Huanyu did this in order to force Ganlu to leave the power center of the Dragon Master Council and weaken her influence in the Dragon Master Council.

But what he didn't know was that after he glanced at Ganlu, a look of understanding appeared on Ganlu's face.

……

"One year is more than enough."

"Come on, Lord Longzun, let's start our great cause!"

After the dragon masters left, Nan Dou finally didn't have to keep a stern face anymore, and he waved his fist and shouted excitedly.

"I'll leave it all to you. I don't understand that."

Dan Feng waved his hand indifferently. Compared with business matters, he cared more about the growth of his own strength.

"That won't do. You have to come out and cut the ribbon for the opening of the new store. I will promote it in advance. Once Long Zun's name is known, there will definitely be a lot of people who come to watch the fun."

"And now, follow me and visit someone."

Nan Dou pulled Dan Feng out the door without saying anything, with a long sword case on his back.

Just by appearing on the street, countless people from the Immortal Boat cast curious glances at him. This is the attraction of Dragon Lord.

The purpose of their trip was also very clear. The apology that Nan Dou made to Jing Liu a few days ago was not just empty words.

After asking along the way, Nan Dou and Dan Feng finally found Jing Liu's residence.

However, what surprised him was that the sword master who was the best in Luofu actually lived in an inconspicuous courtyard.

"Master Swordsman, Chiming Nandou is here to visit you!"

Nan Dou walked forward and knocked lightly on the doorknob, then introduced himself.

Without further ado, the door was opened.

Jingliu stood by the door, ignoring Nan Dou who was standing in front of him, and looked past him at Dan Feng behind him.

For a moment, Nan Dou was embarrassed.

Dan Feng stared back without giving in, and the two of them were confronting each other with a strong sense of tension.

It’s not that Jingliu has any opinion on Danfeng because of what happened a few days ago.

I just simply wanted to have a fight with Danfeng, the Vajra Dragon Lord.

Dan Feng's words showed that he was really unwilling to accept it. As the Dragon Lord of Chiming, he had been respected in the clan since he was a child. However, he was looked down upon in his first battle. His self-esteem made him unable to accept it.

After a moment of silence, Nan Dou couldn't help but speak: "You two, if you want to fight, make an appointment. Now is not the right time."

After hearing Nan Dou's voice, the two finally calmed down.

Jingliu turned around silently and led the two into his own courtyard.

There was only an open space in the courtyard. The ground was sunken and deep footprints and dense sword marks could be clearly seen in many places. These marks could not have been caused in a short period of time.

As for the inside of the house, some scenes can be seen through the open door: a bed, a wardrobe, and nothing else.

Jingliu lives alone like an ascetic monk, and Nandou doesn't even know where to sit. Fortunately, they are not here as guests this time.

"Master Swordsman, I will give you this sword as a token of my gratitude."

Nan Dou said as he took off the sword box from behind him, held it up with both hands, and handed it to Jingliu.

Jing Liu looked at him calmly and said, "It's just my job, not worth mentioning."

Jingliu rejected Nandou with a cold face, but this was not enough to make him give up.

After glancing at Dan Feng behind him, Nan Dou moved closer and whispered, "Master Jing Liu, this sword is the proud work of the best OEM maker Si Si Zhen."

After hearing what Nan Dou said, Jing Liu, who had a cold face just now, couldn't help but be moved, because Si Zhen was the boss of the Gongzao Division, which meant he was the strongest craftsman in Luofu.

Seeing that it was effective, Nan Dou couldn't help but continue, "Master Sword Master, please help me with the sparring with Master Long Zun later. If Master Long Zun can't win, please give him some face..."

Jingliu didn't like the ways of the world, and frowned instantly, but looking at the sword box in Nandou's hand, he could feel the sharpness of the sword inside even through the sword box.

finally……

"Since you are so sincere, I will accept it with reluctance. If you encounter any trouble in the future, please report my name."

Jingliu took the sword box from Nandou's hand calmly, his face still showing an expression of indifference.

"Thank you, Master Swordsman."

Nan Dou also expressed his thanks at the right time.

However, he didn't notice at all how dark Dan Feng's face was when he was whispering to Jing Liu just now.

Before coming, Nan Dou told Dan Feng that he had a way to make Jing Liu accept the gift, and Dan Feng did not doubt it.

But what Dan Feng never expected was that the method Nan Dou suggested was to belittle him in order to please others.

He was really angry that he thought he was inferior to the other party even though they hadn't competed yet.

Dan Feng was so angry that even Long Xin couldn't stop him.

As soon as he received the gift, he couldn't help but declare war: "Luofu Sword Master, let's set a time for a duel."

"Okay, how about the day after tomorrow?"

Jingliu agreed casually. She just wanted to send Danfeng away so that she could study the new sword seriously.

After the two agreed on the place to fight, Dan Feng and Nan Dou left.

On the way, Dan Feng had a gloomy face all the time, and no matter how Nan Dou tried to persuade him, it was of no use. This made him regret bringing Dan Feng here.

As for the mirror flow...

"Qiang!"

"It is indeed a precious sword. It is so sharp. My combat power will surely be enhanced to a higher level!"

Jingliu no longer had the indifference he had when he met Danfeng. His pretty face was filled with an excited smile.

As a swordsman, how can you not feel happy about getting a sword that suits you?
