Right after Ganyu said the word "start," Su Yuan immediately sprang into action! Su Yuan knew that in a straight-up arm wrestling contest, he absolutely couldn’t beat the eerie transformed Furong, so he had to rely on some clever tricks! Did you really think that having Ganyu count down but shout "start" before reaching one, hoping to catch Furong off guard, would be enough to win this arm wrestling match? It’s not that simple! This specially customized wooden board was the real key to victory! In the middle of the board was a hidden hinge that could flip the board upward! Remember the winning rule Su Yuan just explained? As long as the back of one’s hand touches the board, that person loses! So, Su Yuan immediately used his other hand to flip up the side of the board under Furong’s hand, causing the board to make direct contact with the back of her hand! "Furong! I win!!!" Su Yuan declared triumphantly. Furong’s expression froze, clearly caught off guard and not fully comprehending what had just happened... "Cheating! This is cheating!!!" Furong said angrily. "This isn’t arm wrestling at all!" Su Yuan quickly pulled his hand away from Furong’s and stepped back, keeping a relatively safe distance. "Where’s the cheating?" Su Yuan argued firmly. "Didn’t I explain the rules before the match started?" "The winning condition is whoever’s hand back touches the board." "As for how it touches, did I ever say there were any restrictions?" "As long as the rules don’t explicitly forbid it, everything is within the allowed range!!!" "But Ganyu’s countdown clearly hadn’t finished—why did she shout ’start’ early, leaving me no time to react???" Furong still looked very dissatisfied. "Furong! Think carefully again—when Ganyu said she’d be the referee, did she ever say the words ’countdown finished’?" Su Yuan continued to argue: "Who says you have to wait for the entire countdown before shouting ’start’?" After hearing Su Yuan’s words, Furong stood completely still, silent... At this moment, Su Yuan swallowed hard, sweat breaking out on his body... He knew he was taking advantage of a loophole—it was a risky gamble... Since the eerie forces place so much emphasis on rules, then he have to exploit every loophole in the rules to target them! If it comes to this point and Furong still refuses to admit defeat in this arm wrestling match, then he’ll just have to think of another plan... Hoo— Furong suddenly let out a long breath, then looked at Su Yuan with cold and calm eyes, and said: "Alright... Su Yuan..." "You won this arm wrestling match..." "But next time, don’t think about pulling any more of these tricks..." After saying this, Furong wobbled unsteadily on her feet and then collapsed onto the ground... Su Yuan breathed a sigh of relief—looks like he had successfully won the gamble! Su Yuan, Ganyu, and Beidou quickly stepped forward to check on Furong’s condition. Furong rubbed her eyes, then slowly opened them and looked at everyone, saying: "Huh? Big Sister Beidou? Su Yuan? And this must be Miss Ganyu?" "What happened? Why did I fall to the ground? Why don’t I remember anything?" "It’s nothing, Furong. Since you can’t remember, just don’t worry about it," Beidou said, revealing news that shocked Furong: "The Alcor fleet has disbanded..." "Big Sister Beidou, why did it disband? What happened to the Alcor fleet?" Furong asked, unable to understand. "Everyone was tired and didn’t want to be crew anymore. They all went off traveling to distant places." "You should go travel too. Don’t come back to Liyue again..." "Consider this my final order and request to you." Seeing Big Sister Beidou’s serious expression, Furong knew she wasn’t joking... Furong choked up, tears shimmering faintly at the corners of her eyes, and replied in a trembling voice, "Alright, Big Sister Beidou..." "Oh, and one more thing—promise me, okay? Don’t arm wrestle with anyone anymore." Beidou smiled as she reminded her, "You’re a girl, it’s not really something you should be doing." "Okay." Su Yuan watched Furong’s figure fade away, then turned to Beidou and asked, "Beidou, is this really the right thing to do? Not telling Furong the whole truth, and hiding everything from her?" "Even though Furong has some strength, she’s ultimately just an ordinary person." Beidou replied, "Besides, I know her very well, I understand her personality. She’s someone who deeply values loyalty and feelings..." "If she found out she was the one who killed all our brothers and sisters on the ship, knowing her, she would definitely take her own life to atone. There’s no other possibility..." "Letting her go far away, away from the truth of all this, might already be the best choice..." Beidou’s expression turned cold and angry, her teeth clenched as she said: "Eerie, you killed so many of my brothers and sisters—I won’t let you off easily..." Su Yuan looked at Beidou, knowing that she was the one who was truly the most heartbroken and devastated... Seeing the brothers and sisters on the ship, who had been together day and night, die one by one before her eyes, and being powerless to stop it... "By the way, Ganyu, why exactly did Ningguang ask me to come back? What important matter did she want to discuss?" "Tell her for me that once I change into clean clothes, I’ll go to the Jade Chamber to find her." "Beidou, that’s the problem right there..." Su Yuan took over Beidou’s words and said, "According to Ganyu’s description, Ningguang never actually sent a letter asking you to return from Liyue..." "Is that so..." Beidou fell into thought after hearing Su Yuan say this. "So that means either Ningguang has already been controlled by the Eerie force, or someone is impersonating Ningguang to lure me back to Liyue?" "But no matter what, since I’ve returned to Liyue, I definitely have to meet Ningguang!" "Then there’s no time to waste. Let’s go to the Jade Chamber now," Ganyu said. .............. "What a foolish little girl, just a few sweet words and she’s completely under my spell?" In Liyue Harbor, a well-dressed man was counting the money he had just taken from his sixth girlfriend with great satisfaction. "She said she’d only love me and for a lifetime—did you really believe that?" "I’m the famous Casanova of Liyue Harbor, playing countless boats at once!" But in the next moment, a tall and dignified figure appeared before him. "Hm? Zhongli, the guest consultant from Wangsheng Funeral Parlor?" "People who deal in death business, stay away from me—bad luck!" he shouted impatiently. Yet Zhongli only spoke slowly: "The contract is sealed. Those who break their word shall suffer the punishment of the Geo Archon..." --------------- Exclusive access : 320+ch on paetron Join now : patreon*com/DeCakraWnloverz
