Chapter 523 People’s words are scary

No matter what, these few words left Funina speechless. After listening to Shao Yun's words, Funina couldn't understand Shao Yun's logic for a while, as if her brain was overloaded.

I saw Furninna standing on a high place with a look of astonishment on her face, stammering.

"No, you, you..."

Seeing how frustrated Furninha was, Paimon lowered his voice and said to Ying beside him, "Wow, Shao Yun actually made the Water God speechless. That's amazing!"

At this moment, the careful Ying noticed a rather strange detail, and she leaned over to Paimon's ear and whispered softly.

"But then again, Zhongli wouldn't get hurt if he fell from such a high place like the Water God is standing?"

Paimon tilted his head and thought for a moment, then lowered his voice and answered, "Well... Zhongli was once the God of Rock, so this little situation shouldn't be a problem for him."

"And I seem to have heard before that he can even eat rocks, so falling from the same height might not be a big deal for him."

……

Zhongli: No, does my ability to eat stones have anything to do with my ability to withstand falls?

……

Although Finina was temporarily at a disadvantage in this verbal battle, the atmosphere around her was extremely heated.

Everyone was whispering to each other, speculating what exciting drama would happen next.

All I could hear was whispers from the crowd from time to time.

"What's going on? Lady Funina is here? Do you want to see any good show?"

"Of course! That's the blonde traveler. Lady Finina came here specially, so she must want to have a great duel with her, right?"

"Ohhh! That's so exciting. I know Lady Funina won't let us down!"

Although Shao Yun only said two or three simple sentences, it made Funina feel quite embarrassed.

However, the people of Fontaine all started to make a fuss at the same time, clamoring for the Water God to have a battle with Shao Yun and his party so that everyone could watch the fun and have some fun.

Hearing the constant jeers around her, especially the calls for her to duel with Ying, Funina suddenly felt as if she was caught in a dilemma.

But soon, she put her hands on her hips, burst into a hearty laugh, and then shouted to all the people of Fontaine present: "Ahahaha! That's right, stay calm."

"My people who believe in me always like to shout along with the spectators. It's so loud, and I will tolerate these disturbances."

Then, following everyone's wishes, Funina went on to say, "As you can imagine, I am indeed determined to have an epic showdown with these foreign travelers!"

As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately attracted even more enthusiastic cheers and applause from the audience.

Paimon, who was standing aside, was dumbfounded when he heard that Finina decided to start a war so decisively.

"Is the fight about to start? It's progressing too fast... I thought we could communicate with the Water God, but he's coming to cause trouble for us without even saying a word..."

Shao Yun also realized that Funina was being swayed by public opinion and didn't think much about it.

After hesitating for a moment, he decided to ease the situation.

"Um... can we not do anything? How about you come down first, or we can go up and sit down and have a good chat?"

However, Funina completely failed to understand Shao Yun's good intentions. Instead, she mistakenly thought that she was in an advantageous position and became more and more arrogant.

"Wow? Are you afraid of this duel? Humph, it seems that you are not as brave and fearless as the rumors say!"

Shao Yun couldn't help but frown when he heard Funina's aggressive words.

Originally, he was thinking of maintaining peace as much as possible, but seeing that the other party was getting so aggressive, Shao Yun didn't want to waste any more words.

"I didn't come here to cause trouble for myself. The purpose of our trip is just to spend a vacation here."

Then he added: "If you really don't want us to enter Fontaine, then at least let us see the statue of the water god as a souvenir."

"As long as this is met, we will turn around and leave immediately. After that, we will not interfere with each other. You can be your god and we will live our lives."

Shao Yun is now waiting for his elder brother-in-law to accumulate enough energy for the "Loom of Destiny". When the time comes, he will take Kong, Ying and Paimon and run away.

I am not the Messiah in the white linen robe. What does it have to do with me whether Fontaine will die or not? If you, Funina, don't welcome us, we will take the water elemental power and leave.

Wouldn’t it be nice to go to Nata and play with the little dragon by yourself?

Show respect to others on their territory, or don't go there.

When the other party drives you away, just leave tactfully and that's it.

When she heard that Shao Yun and his group were leaving, Fu Ningna was stunned for a moment.

Her purpose was to put on a grand show, not to drive people away!

If Shao Yun and his group were really allowed to leave like this, wouldn't the audience who were looking forward to watching this exciting event be greatly disappointed?

He took great pains to arrange maintenance work at Roudeng Port and waited at Hailu Port for more than a week before Shao Yun and others finally arrived.

If it ends like this, wouldn't all the careful preparations before be wasted?

At the same time, seeing that there was nothing exciting to see, some people in the crowd began to make a fuss impatiently, clamoring to leave.

"Oh, what? I thought I would see a fierce battle between the gods and foreign travelers."

"It's boring, let's go."

Listening to these complaints and watching the disappointment gradually appearing on the audience's faces, Funina was extremely anxious.

In order to reignite the lively atmosphere at the scene, she cast her gaze towards the figures of Shao Yun and his group. After quickly scanning each person, she finally fixed her gaze on Paimeng who was floating beside Ying.

In an instant, a brilliant idea came to my mind.

I saw Funina standing firmly on the high ground, taking a deep breath, and then shouting at the top of her voice: "No, you absolutely cannot leave now!"

When Shao Yun heard this, he realized that they didn't let him enter Fontaine, and they didn't let him leave, so he had to give an explanation no matter what!

So, he asked with a slightly dissatisfied tone: "Why don't you let us go?"

Funina said solemnly with a serious face, "According to the Fontaine law, no one is allowed to fly flying objects in the Fontaine city area during the first three days of each month. You have violated this rule. So I have reason to arrest you!"

After saying these words, Funina added: "You have the right to remain silent now, but in court, please freely state your defense of innocence!"

Just then, Paimon heard that the group was about to be arrested, and quickly asked, "Wait a minute? What did you say?"

Faced with Paimon's question, Finina remained calm and repeated what she had said before without hesitation.

"You have committed a serious violation of the law! According to the clear provisions of the Fontaine law, during the first three days of each month, no one is allowed to fly any type of flying objects in the Fontaine city area."

"However, unfortunately, you have ignored this law, which has already constituted a violation of the law!"

After listening to Furninna's words, Paimon was confused. How could releasing a flying object be a crime? What kind of strange crime was this?

Paimon began to look around carefully, trying to find out what might have caused them to break the law.

Suddenly, as if realizing something, Paimon suddenly lowered his head and looked at himself.

I am floating in the air. Could it be... could it be that the flying object that Funina mentioned is referring to me?

Paimon raised his head slowly in disbelief, looked at Furninna above, and asked, "Wait... are you saying that I... I am the so-called flying object?"

Finina stared at Paimon's surprised expression with interest, and couldn't help but find it very interesting.

"Haha, not bad! It seems that you are quite self-aware! In this case, if you have no objection, I, the Water God, will formally arrest you in the name of the Water God!"

"Let's go to the Oprykle Opera House and have a good meeting. I'm really looking forward to seeing your wonderful 'performance' there!"

Funina's words were like a bombshell dropped into the crowd, instantly detonating everyone's emotions.

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became heated and tense.

However, just when Funina was delighted and thought she had successfully turned the tables, Shao Yun could not help himself.

I toasted you but you didn't drink; I served you food but you turned the table, do you really treat me like air? !

Shao Yun took two steps at a time and took a step forward, releasing his anger without any concealment.

He stared at Funina above him with his eyes wide open, and shouted at the top of his voice: "What did you mean just now? Repeat it again if you dare!"

"How dare you say my precious daughter is a flying object! Are you tired of living, insulting your daughter like this in front of a father? You damn bastard!"

Shao Yun's sudden roar shocked everyone present, and for a moment the whole scene fell into deathly silence.

When Funina heard Shao Yun claim that Paimeng was his daughter, she was so shocked that she couldn't say a word for a long time.

After a long while, she stammered in retort, "Daughter...daughter? Are you kidding me? Look at the way you two look, you don't look like father and daughter at all!"

Shao Yun raised his arm, pointed at Furninna who was standing high up, and shouted, "Paimon is my adopted daughter! Is there any problem with that?"

"You racist! This ridiculous law you made is the biggest insult and offense to my daughter!"

"Today you dare to offend my daughter so brazenly, then tomorrow you will be so cruel as to set up a concentration camp and throw all those who don't look like 'humans' into the crematorium!"

As soon as Shao Yun spoke these stern words, the whole situation suddenly underwent a shocking reversal.

Funina, who originally had the upper hand, was hit down by Shao Yun's iron fist, and the offensive and defensive situations had changed!

When everyone heard Shao Yun accuse Funina of racial discrimination, everyone was shocked and pale.

You know, such a crime is a serious crime that makes people shudder, not only in Fontaine, but also in the entire continent of Teyvat!

After all, the continent of Teyvat today is generally relatively harmonious and peaceful.

As long as they are not the kind of brutal monsters that are completely unable to understand human language, as long as they can communicate effectively with humans and have good intentions, they can basically live a stable and peaceful life.

Here, there is no clear boundary or differential treatment between so-called sub-humans and normal people. No matter who you are, everyone is treated equally and lives in harmony.

Take Mond for example, Diona, a loli cat girl. I have never seen anyone pointing at Diona and calling her a monster.

This is especially true in Liyue, where many mixed-race offspring are born from the union of immortals and ordinary people. These have long been commonplace for the people of Liyue.

Ganyu and Yanfei came about in this way.

The ghosts, monsters, and so on of Inazuma now coexist peacefully with the Inazuma people.

The Xumi statue is Tinari, he is the descendant of the Tinari people. No one cares about his pair of furry fox ears.

It is even more impossible for anyone to discriminate against others just because they look different from themselves.

Especially the magical creatures like Fontaine and Merusin, which enjoy the same rights as humans.

Discrimination is a serious crime in Fontaine! If you don't weigh 400 grams, you won't be able to weigh more than 1,000 kilograms.

Shao Yun's accusation that Funina "discriminated" against Paimeng left the people of Fontaine, who were just there to watch the fun, dumbfounded and stunned.

After everyone came to their senses, they immediately started whispering and discussing among themselves.

Someone couldn't help but sigh: "That's right, if you think about it carefully, there must be many white friends like the one beside the blond traveler in Teyvat."

"If it is considered a violation of the law to release a 'flying object' just because of its unique way of movement, it does sound a bit discriminatory!"

Another person echoed, "Lady Funina was accused of racial discrimination? This is a very serious crime! Does this mean that our Lord God is really going to be imprisoned in Melo Petersburg?"

For a moment, the whole scene became chaotic, and all kinds of speculations grew explosively.

At this time, Funina was standing on a high place, looking at the people of Fontaine below who were pointing fingers at her and talking about her.

She just felt her head buzzing and her heart beating rapidly.

This sudden situation was completely beyond her expectations and she almost fainted on the spot.

At this moment, Funina really wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

"How did I discriminate against her? What's going on? Why do people think like this..."

At this moment, Funina was frightened by the scene before her and was eager to explain it to everyone.

"Hey! Everyone, please calm down and listen to me! I really didn't mean that! I definitely don't discriminate against that cute little white guy!"

However, at this moment, Shao Yun added fuel to the fire and asked loudly: "Then may I ask, what do you mean?"

"If you don't welcome me to Fontaine, we will leave and won't stay here. But there's no need to discriminate against my daughter's unique way of moving? Or even use this as a reason to arrest us! Do you think you've lived too long?"
