Genshin Impact: The Sharpshooter of Teyvat

Chapter 962: Poison that Enrages the Beast

When Alice heard Shao Yun ask her to make an hourglass, she reached into her small waist bag, which could be called a treasure bag, and started searching without thinking.

"Ok!"

Alice then took out a palm-sized hourglass and explained, "Once the sand in this hourglass runs out, it will last for 72 hours. Can I start counting now?"

Shao Yun nodded and said kindly, "No problem, what I'm going to say next will also count..."

Alice turned the hourglass over and the time began.

Shao Yun took into account the time he spent talking with Alice, giving her enough face, and then formally stated his request.

"I'll give Wendy a chance. I'll search for him in Mondstadt for three days. When the time is up, all the grudges between Wendy and me will end, and Ying, Paimon, and my daughter will be completely free."

"But the prerequisite is that Wendy hides and doesn't let me see her. I believe that as the God of Wind, Wendy should be quite good at hide-and-seek."

Alice knew that this was the biggest concession Shao Yun could make. No, this basically meant letting Wendy go!

Alice thanked him profusely, nodded, and clasped her hands together in gratitude, saying, "Thank you! Thank you for your kindness..."

……

However, just when Shao Yun was about to tell Ying to take Paimon and his brother-in-law to Liyue first, he would stay in Mondstadt for three days to save face, and then go to find her.

Suddenly, a breeze blew, brushing across Shao Yun and Alice's faces like a veil, causing them to squint their eyes.

Immediately afterwards, right in front of Shao Yun, a green airflow swirled, and Wendy slowly emerged from the wind.

Wendy appeared in front of Shao Yun with his lively face, his emerald green eyes staring straight at Shao Yun, with a glimmer of provocation in his eyes.

Shao Yun was stunned at first, his eyes widened, his mouth slightly open, and an expression of disbelief appeared on his face.

Then he rubbed his eyes hard, trying to confirm whether everything in front of him was real.

Seeing this, Alice's mind flashed with a line of lyrics: "I dare not open my eyes, I hope it's just my illusion."

Alice is so confused! We've already negotiated it! They're about to let you go, why are you, Wendy, so angry?

At this moment, Wendy raised her chin provocatively towards Shao Yun again, issuing a declaration of war.

"I'll wait for you at Zhaixing Cliff."

After saying that, Wendy turned into a breeze again and left.

Wendy is completely issuing a declaration of war! She really has no shame at all.

At this moment, Shao Yun's eyes were about to pop out of their sockets. He gritted his teeth and shouted angrily: "There is a road to heaven, but you don't take it. There is no door to hell, but you rush to death!"

"Wendy, you are so shameless!"

As the saying goes, a bad guy's brains are not as good as a stupid guy's sudden inspiration.

At this moment, Shao Yun was so angry that his face turned red and his facial features were about to move.

Alice looked at Shao Yun, whose face had turned red, and tentatively reached out her hand, wanting to hold Shao Yun.

At this moment, Shao Yun roared, "Barbatos, damn it! You will die today! I will blast you like a wind slime!"

Seeing that Shao Yun was about to go berserk, Alice pounced on him, hugged his waist, and shamelessly asked him to give Wendy another chance.

"Wait a minute! Give Fengshen another chance! I beg you, he's been drinking too much lately, you won't get angry with a drunkard!"

Shao Yun turned his head with an angry face and glared fiercely at Alice who was hugging his waist tightly.

Then, he exerted force and forcibly pried open Alice's fingers that were tightly clasped around his waist, while yelling at the top of his voice:

"I gave him a chance? Are you blind or what? Didn't you see Wendy's provocative look just now? He was just looking for trouble!"

Shao Yun became angrier and angrier as he spoke, and his voice became louder and louder.

"Damn it, do you really think I'm still the soft persimmon that let Rosaline go just because he said a few nice words? That's all in the past!"

Before he could finish his words, he mercilessly tore away Alice's hands from her waist and pushed her away like she was throwing away garbage.

Alice was caught off guard and was pushed by Shao Yun. She lost her balance and staggered. Then she sat down on the ground with a thump.

The fall was so severe that Alice felt a sharp pain in her butt and almost cried out.

At this moment, Alice had already cursed Wendy in her heart.

Everything had already been agreed upon, and Shao Yun was just going through the motions.

From beginning to end, Wendy was at most branded a coward.

Besides, what's so shameful about losing to Shao Yun? There's nothing shameful about being a little timid!

After all, fear is the nature of living things, and courage is the hymn of mankind.

But the problem is, you, Wendy, are not a human. Aren’t you a wind elf in your true form?

People have given you a way out, but you are still showing off. Do you really want to die?

Seeing that Shao Yun was about to ride the Apocalypse horse "Famine" to chase Wendy, Alice was anxious.

If we don't find a way to stop Shao Yun quickly, the consequences will be unimaginable.

At this critical moment, Alice suddenly remembered what the devil had said about Shao Yun's most vulnerable heart.

"Eliza and Isaac!" Ellie called out the two names without hesitation, and her voice echoed in the wilderness.

When Shao Yun heard these two names, he felt his head buzzing and was completely stunned.

"what are you saying?"

Shao Yun covered his forehead, turned his head, looked at Alice who was pushed to the ground by him, and asked with a suspicious look on his face.

Alice struggled to get up from the ground. She took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and then said in a gentle tone:

"Eliza, your dead wife, and your poor child 'Isaac'."

"I already know your past, Arthur Morgan!"

Shao Yun narrowed his eyes and looked at Alice, subconsciously thinking that it was Keli who told Alice.

After all, he had only shared the past in "his" mind with Klee.

"Keli told you?"

Alice shook her head slightly, an expression of great sympathy on her face.

"No, it was...the devil who told me."

When Shao Yun heard that Alice had actually communicated with the devil and only got such a little information, he felt that Alice was ridiculous.

"You communed with the devil and paid the price, and this is all you got?"

Alice pursed her lips and grasped her left shoulder tightly with her right hand.

Her eyes fell on Shao Yun, full of sympathy, and then she said, "You are just...immersed in your past mistakes. You want to make amends, right?"

Shao Yun's body trembled slightly. He didn't expect Alice to say this so directly.

Alice continued: "I am also a mother. I can't imagine how I felt when I lost my child and my family. I understand your devastated feeling."

Shao Yun's focus at this moment was on the word "make up" in Alice's words.

He tried to remain calm and composed on the surface, but his heart was close to madness.

"Make amends? What do you mean by make amends?"

Alice obviously hasn't realized the seriousness of the matter yet. She is still immersed in the "substitute literature" plot in her mind.

She looked at Shao Yun, revealed a slightly meaningful smile, and then said to herself:

"I think I know why you care so much about Ying. You are trying to make up for the debt you feel towards your dead wife and child."

"In short, you, you treated Ying and Paimon as your dead wife and children. Am I right?"

"In that case, you should cherish it! Don't make the same mistake again!"

Shao Yun stared at Alice expressionlessly without saying a word.

But his heart was like a burning flame, churning violently.

Various thoughts kept flashing through his mind, one of the most extreme of which was: should he just kill Alice and then raise Kelly as his own child?

Alice noticed that Shao Yun looked a little "confused", so she slowly walked up to him and gently hugged him.

She soothed him softly, "This idea is like a plot in substitute literature."

"You have a tragic past, so you want to make up for what you owe to Ying."

"It's not something to be ashamed of, it's okay...

Just when Alice thought everything was settled, Shao Yun's voice revealed an imperceptible madness in his calmness.

"You know what? I've never felt..."

Alice watched Shao Yun gradually calm down and began to express her inner feelings.

Mistaking this for a good sign, she smiled and asked, "Feeling what?"

However, just before Alice finished her words, Shao Yun's hands quickly grabbed her neck like iron clamps.

His expression instantly became hideous and ferocious, in stark contrast to his previous calmness.

He changed his face like a Sichuan opera performer, switching to his angriest side without any warning.

Shao Yun widened his eyes and roared at Alice, "I've never felt so angry!"

Shao Yun suddenly became furious without any warning, like a powder keg that had been lit.

This was something Alice had not anticipated at all. She had no idea what she had said wrong to cause such a strong reaction.

"Ah~ Let go~"

Alice begged for mercy in fear, but Shao Yun had already grabbed her neck like a ferocious beast and lifted her up.

Alice kicked wildly in the air, trying to break free from Shao Yun.

But it was all in vain. Her breathing began to become more and more difficult, and she felt like she was going to suffocate to death in the next second.

However, Shao Yun had no intention of letting go, but instead continued to increase the strength in his hands.

His eyes were bloodshot and he looked like a madman who had lost his mind.

Shao Yun stared at Alice fiercely and kept roaring.

"You know what? 'I' love Ying!"

"The 'me' in the past chose the gang and gave up my family. This is the pain of my life. This is why I was so angry when I saw John not cherishing his family!"

"Everything he has is what I have always dreamed of! And now I have worked so hard to finally realize this dream!"

Having said that, Shao Yun became more and more excited, and the strength in his hands increased further. The fingers that were pinching Alice's neck almost sank into her flesh.

"With just a few casual words, you turned my love for Ying into a ridiculous lie!"

"You don't know how to respect my feelings for Ying! What's the difference between you and that beast Wendy?"

After hearing this, Alice suddenly realized that she had been tricked by the devil!

Shao Yun's love for Ying is so unique that it is not a kind of stand-in literature at all!

Originally, this plan should have been able to awaken the "kindness" deep in Shao Yun's heart, but it instantly turned into a poison that angered Shao Yun's bestiality. Now it's really over!

Just when Alice was strangled to the point where she could hardly breathe, suddenly, the tearful look of the little girl Keli flashed through Shao Yun's mind.

At this moment, the last bit of kindness in Shao Yun's heart was awakened again by Ke Li.

He released the hand that was pinching Alice, and then he looked at his red palm. Through it, Shao Yun could see the anger and murderous intent just now.

Then, his gaze turned to Alice who was sitting on the ground, watching her panting, as fragile as a rose ravaged by a storm.

Shao Yun took a deep breath, and for Ke Li's sake, he still gave Alice a chance.

As long as Alice no longer harms his wife and children, he can choose to forgive her and give her countless chances.

After all, he is a father, and Alice is a mother...

"You know what? I should just crush you to death with my foot."

"But you should be thankful because you have a lovely daughter! Stay out of my family!"

Then, Shao Yun was determined to kill the Wind God, and whispered like a devil: "Barbatos, you bastard!"

Alice looked at Shao Yun riding on the apocalypse horse "Famine" towards Mond's "Star Cliff" and pleaded helplessly:

"Ahem, no, come back... No... Barbatos..."
