If it were the irrational Dvalin, Venti naturally wouldn't dare to make any guarantees. But the current Dvalin had regained some of his clarity and was absolutely safe.
Listening to their conversation, Stormterror Dvalin also spoke up. "Please, feel free to heal me. The power of the Abyssal poison has already corroded my insides. Pain is nothing to me."
Hearing the "flying lizard" say this, Su Han nodded. "Alright then, let me get ready."
He nodded to Keqing and Xiangling, and the three of them climbed onto Dvalin's back.
Two giant poisoned spikes were continuously releasing a malevolent aura from his back.
The Yuheng frowned. "So this is the poisoned blood that has been plaguing him?"
"Mm, this is the main spot. But if we can't clear it out from inside his body, he won't be able to recover," Su Han said, unleashing the Tessusaiga. To cut through Stormterror, he had to use the Demon Dragon form of the Tessusaiga.
With the release of the Sword of the Fang, a tearing attribute was attached to the blade. However, to make things easier, Su Han still reminded Stormterror, "You should release the seals on your body first. Otherwise, I can't get the sword in."
"Okay," Stormterror replied obediently, releasing all of its body's defenses. Since he was brought by Lord Barbatos, he would naturally not harm him.
But Su Han wanted to tell him, Brother, you're too naive.
He raised the Tessusaiga and directly cut open the area around the poisoned spike. A terrifying Abyssal power was released, and the black energy even made Venti feel nauseous.
Just then, a purple light shone, and the two women, who had been feeling it was hard to breathe, instantly returned to normal.
Xiangling said in a low voice, "Should we do it, Brother Su Han?"
"Mm. After all, we are healing Stormterror," Su Han said with a straight face. In a short while, a piece of contaminated flesh was removed from near the poisoned spike. This piece of meat weighed several dozen pounds and was very precious, covered in the filthy power of the Abyss.
Xiangling took the meat and stored it away.
For a full half an hour, Su Han dug out a total of over three hundred pounds of meat from near Stormterror's poisoned spikes. But for a dragon, this was just a layer of skin.
Below, Venti watched the bloody scene and couldn't help but ask with a pained heart, "Why are you making so many cuts?"
"Nonsense! The poison has gone deep into his body. If I don't make cuts, how can my power purify it? If you feel so bad for him, you do it." Su Han stopped his movements, looking as if he was about to leave.
Venti immediately apologized repeatedly, claiming he had misspoken.
But Su Han snorted. "Five bottles of vintage wine from Windrise."
"Don't you not drink?" Venti was still trying to struggle.
Su Han continued, "Ten bottles."
"Fine, fine! It's a deal!" If this went on, the price was probably going to rise to twenty bottles. His private collection of wine wasn't that large.
After clearing away the contaminated flesh, Su Han began to use his Purification Power to cleanse it. When the purple light entered his body, Dvalin felt a sense of relief for the first time. "So amazing! My body seems so much lighter." The poisoned blood in his body had been greatly purified. It was so comfortable. If this could continue for an hour, he would definitely be completely purified.
But Su Han only lasted for ten minutes before saying with a pale face, "My power is exhausted. I need to rest for a while."
Venti looked at his swaying figure and couldn't help but be moved. Although he's a bit greedy and shameless, he's still a person worth befriending.
With Keqing's support, Su Han returned to the ground. He said to Venti, "Lord Anemo Archon, it will take at least half a month for my power to recover."
"It's alright. I can feel that Dvalin is recovering. Then we'll come back in half a month. You've worked so hard. This is a potion I brewed myself. It can quickly restore stamina and heal injuries. Please, take it." Venti took out a precious potion from his coat. It shimmered with a faint, verdant green light and a powerful elemental fluctuation. One could tell at a glance that it was a treasure.
Su Han said with some embarrassment, "How can I accept this?"
"It's fine! You saved Dvalin, so you are my friend! Go on, take it."
"Well… alright. But I'd like to take it after I get back to the Jade Chamber."
"Mm. Then I'll send you back."
On the way back, Su Han thought of something and said to Venti, "Lord Anemo Archon, you'd better find some herbs that can restore flesh for Dvalin to apply. That way, his injuries will heal faster."
"Don't worry, how could I mistreat him? But you, you'd better not go out for the next few days. The people of the Abyss and the Fatui must hate you to the bone." Venti was now very concerned about Su Han. At least until Dvalin had fully recovered, he absolutely could not let anything happen to him.
Su Han showed a moved expression and sighed. "It was I who was ignorant before. Thank you for being so magnanimous."
"Not at all, not at all. We just got off on the wrong foot."
"No, it was really my fault before. I misunderstood you."
"Sigh, let's not talk about it anymore. You said before that we were brothers. Then from now on, let's treat each other as brothers."
"Big Brother!"
"Su Han!"
The two of them, acting like brothers, left the two women beside them completely dumbfounded. Weren't they at each other's throats? How did things change so quickly? Keqing turned to look at Su Han and saw that the corner of his mouth was twitching. This guy isn't trying to hold back his laughter, is he? Thinking about Su Han's personality, it was indeed possible. Then… is the Anemo Archon being tricked again?
After arriving at the Jade Chamber, Venti, afraid of being questioned, dropped Su Han off and fled.
But he didn't see that after he left, the pale-faced Su Han immediately stood up, his bloodless face returning to normal.
Xiangling was shocked. "Brother Su Han, you… how…"
"How what?"
"Your face…"
"Oh, you mean this? Mastering the Transparent World allows me to freely control my capillaries. It's simple. Come on, we're having Stormterror hot pot today."
Xiangling had black lines on her forehead. As expected, Brother Su Han was still as shameless as ever.
Subsequently, arriving in the grotto-heaven, Xiangling took out all the contaminated meat. A purple light flashed, and the black meat quickly returned to its original appearance.
"So you're just treating Stormterror like a buffet," Keqing teased.
Su Han shook his head. "What do you know? This is called 'reasonable utilization.' Anyway, its hide is thick and its recovery is strong. One cut is a cut, ten cuts are a cut, right? And this Stormterror meat can also increase our strength. Don't tell me you don't want to eat it?"
Being told this, Keqing seemed to remember the unparalleled deliciousness of the Stormterror meat and couldn't help but lick her lips. A treasure that was both delicious and could increase one's strength was indeed hard to find.
However, before Xiangling started cooking, Su Han still inserted the Tessusaiga into the meat, absorbing the power of Stormterror within it. After all, if that guy were to appear out of the blue in the future and see the power of Stormterror in the meat, it would be a huge mess.
In the Multiverse Mission Group chat.
Su Han:@everyone, everyone come to the Jade Chamber later for some Stormterror meat! We've got a fresh batch.
Sucrose:Didn't we almost finish the last batch? How did we get a fresh one?
Hu Tao:I want some! Wait for me! I'm in the middle of some business. I'll come over after I bury this guy.
Ningguang:As expected. I knew you were up to no good.
From the moment Su Han had set off for Stormterror's Lair, she knew there would be some shenanigans. She never thought he would actually bring back more dragon meat.
Mona:Um… I wanted to ask, Su Han, how did you get the dragon meat? The Anemo Archon was right beside you.
Zhongli:I, too, am curious.
Keqing:Him? Well…
With the Yuheng's simple explanation, everyone finally understood what had happened. But it had to be said, if not for Keqing's explanation, no one would have believed that Su Han had managed to trick an Archon into circles.
Ganyu:As long as everyone knows, please don't spread it around. After all, Su Han is doing this for our benefit.
Zhongli:So you used that kind of method.
He had originally thought it was something strange, but Su Han had used a method he had never expected. However, since it was for the good of Liyue, it was better not to tell that drunkard.
At this time, Guuji Yae happened to be free. Seeing that the group was giving out benefits again, she really couldn't take it anymore.
Yae Miko:Do you see this, little Ayaka? This is the welfare of Liyue! And look at our Inazuma! We're so poor. As the head shrine maiden of the Grand Narukami Shrine and the familiar of the Raiden Shogun, I can't even eat fried tofu freely. Let's the two of us betray the Raiden Shogun and run away to Mondstadt overnight.
Kamisato Ayaka:Lady Yae Guuji, please calm down.
Yae Miko:How can I be calm?! Look at their treatment, and look at ours! Sob sob, I'm going to keep a little notebook on Ei. If she doesn't compensate me in the future, I'll expose all of her dark history!
Kamisato Ayaka:…
Mona:…
Keqing:…
Ningguang:…
Is that something a familiar of an Archon can say?
However, Su Han said he understood very well. But there was nothing he could do about it. Who told Inazuma to be so poor?
But as someone who understood the sly fox, he knew that she was just greedy and wanted to eat.
Su Han:Don't worry, I've saved ten pounds of meat for you.
Yae Miko:Ahem, I was a little drunk just now. You understand.
