Chapter 231 - Chapter 229: Great King Phanes: Feeling like I've been NTR'd... The "Divine Han" and "Martial Ming"

Star Lord collectives have both deeply researched the essence of National Fortune, combining unique rules like "God" and "Martial" as nourishment to continuously advance their own Path of the Star Lord.

It's not just these unions.

There are also extra-universal life forms being constantly salvaged through Quantum power; their current momentum is not to be underestimated.

For example, the Honkai Alliance is said to deeply study a power called Honkai, using it as fuel and nourishment to drive their progress. The leader of this Honkai Alliance is the Star Lord of Everlasting Fire, Himeko.

Also, it's said that many guys with strange powers have arrived recently, taking advantage of the "version dividends" from two completely different worldviews, and there are signs of them rising up... In comparison, the original citizens of Teyvat seem a bit ordinary—

It's not that Teyvat has no talent; it's just that talent emerged, but couldn't be kept!

For instance, the Traveler, Lumine, is the one with the greatest achievements right now.

Then there are the witches of the Hexenzirkel, each with their own unique skills. After reaping the version dividends, their hidden potential exploded. The strength of the Hexenzirkel is not necessarily inferior to their Seven Archons Alliance... If they don't give the original seven nations of Teyvat a hand, their citizens might truly fade into mediocrity.

It's not that they aren't capable, but there's a habit of intense competition that isn't very friendly to citizens who are used to a leisurely life.

"Hmph! Barbatos, stop making sarcastic remarks."

The Tsaritsa, Barnabas, frowned and said with some dissatisfaction, "If we weren't worried about the original seven nations of Teyvat, with our abilities, even if we couldn't take the top spot, we certainly wouldn't fall out of the first-rate ranks."

"But once that person is resurrected, will you be able to endure their short temper?"

The relationship between the Demon Gods and Phanes is quite subtle.

In fact, it could be said that the Demon Gods fundamentally originate from Phanes.

Even Morax, though formed from a falling Heavenly Star, has countless ties to Phanes.

If Phanes hadn't been such a jerk back then, these Demon Gods would naturally have been Phanes' direct subordinates.

Nahida, who still looked like a minor, curiously observed the complex emotions of the seniors present, and then tentatively spoke up: "How about I go back to the Lord of Heavenly Principles' courtyard to scout things out?"

"Hmm?!"

Good grief, I almost forgot—among us Seven Archons, there's one with the ultimate connection!

This one has the qualification to freely travel to and from the Creator's courtyard!

Especially Raiden Makoto; as she looked at Nahida, a hint of envy flickered in her eyes.

She still vaguely remembered that existence bringing her dissipating consciousness back to that courtyard and meticulously nursing her back to health, which finally allowed her to return whole... Unfortunately.

After she recovered and left, she wasn't granted the qualification to return to the courtyard again.

Every time she thought about it, a sense of loss would well up in Raiden Makoto's heart... "Then I'll leave it to you, Lesser Lord Kusanali. It's best if you can find out the attitude of The Primordial One."

"No problem!"

...Thump! Thump! Thump!

Amidst the sound of a powerful heartbeat, a woman with her eyes tightly closed, looking exactly like the four including Istaru, finally appeared before Hermes.

With the return of Phanes, Order turned into threads, Civilization into a neon garment, Remembrance sang around her like playful sprites, and Faith and Ambition intertwined to form a ribbon tying up her hair... Finally, Pure Beauty became Phanes' heart!

When Ronova, Istaru, and the others saw her, the void in their hearts seemed to be filled.

"I didn't expect that after throwing ourselves into Master's embrace and clearly becoming independent lives, still..."

"That connection existing in the dark hasn't been severed; instead, it's become even tighter."

The emotion in the voice was extremely complex.

They were both delighted by the return of their former sovereign, yet terrified that her return would affect their connection with their current Master.

After all... the connection between the four of them and her was truly too close.

This connection seemed even to surpass their connection with their current Master!

Under the complex gazes of Istaru and the other three, Phanes' state finally stabilized, and she slowly opened her eyes.

Though she had only just been resurrected, the aura on Phanes at this moment was faintly even above the four Sustainer of Heavenly Principless like Asmodeus.

Her eyes were not the unique Kaslana eye color of Kiana's counterparts, nor were they the golden eyes symbolizing a goddess, but rather an iridescent black.

A bone-chilling divinity and a compassionate humanity for all living things cycled within those eyes.

After Phanes regained consciousness and exchanged glances with her former Four Shades, she stood up and looked at Hermes with a complex expression.

Perceiving the complex state of mind of these few people at this moment, it felt like she was being NTR'd.

Her own halves, facing her resurrection, didn't immediately feel joy, but instead felt a strange guilt toward their current Master because of their closer connection to her?

Where's the logic in that?

Wake up, we are of the same origin; even if we're separate now, we're still the closest of sisters!

"I arranged everything for Teyvat, even leaving all my power to my chosen successor, but I didn't expect..."

Phanes bit her lip slightly, feeling both surprise and joy.

With her strength, she didn't need to do anything to understand all the cause and effect; even if her former reflections became independent, it was impossible to completely sever all ties with her.

The great cycle of life and death in the Great Universe and the evolution of all things under cause, effect, time, and space were clear in her eyes.

The Teyvat of old had already been salvaged from that pitch-black calamity by the man before her, becoming part of this golden world that had existed almost only in her dreams.

The citizens she once cherished were running freely in this world, chasing those golden dreams.

Everyone is like a dragon, everyone is like a god.

In her eyes, the intelligent life in this world, no matter how insignificant, seemed to be instinctively chasing the bright light of the universe.

Hermes quietly observed Great King Phanes, whom he had long admired:

"As expected of a character model beloved and favored by the multiverse!"

The goddess before him was almost identical to Kiana, except for slight differences in eye color and temperament.

Her personality was just as abstract, and she was also the final boss of a world.

Although Istaru and the others were also quite similar, they each had their own characteristics; only Phanes had that fundamental level of similarity...
