Chapter 599 Part 1 To those who stay
"How about we leave Liyue Harbor for a while?" After a long silence, Paimon finally broke the suffocating silence. Her voice trembled a little, and she was obviously frightened by what had just happened. At this moment, she was looking at others with lingering fear, and there was a glimmer of worry in her eyes.
However, Kong had no reaction to Paimon's suggestion. He still stood there quietly like a statue, not saying a word, as if he was completely immersed in his own thoughts.
At this moment, Shen He suddenly spoke, her voice was as cold as frost and snow in the cold night, and seemed to carry a thousand years of chillness: "Master asked me to come to Liyue, probably hoping that I could give them some help when necessary. So, you leave first. I can't choose to escape when Liyue Harbor is in danger. This is my responsibility as a practitioner." Shen He's eyes were firm and persistent, revealing an unquestionable determination.
Although Shen He's words were brief, her determination could not be ignored. Her attitude was so resolute that she seemed to have made up her mind to face everything that might happen next alone.
Lin Feng listened to Shen He's firm words in such a cold tone, and a complex emotion surged in his heart. Leaving Liyue Port was not difficult, after all, the rise and fall of this place had no direct relationship with him. However, if Kong chose to stay, then Lin Feng would definitely stay without hesitation.
After all the experiences during this period, Lin Feng deeply realized that what he was facing was far beyond his imagination. Even a protagonist like Kong might be in danger, so how could others protect themselves?
Sora slightly raised his head, his eyes looking through the window of the room, as if he had traveled through endless time and space, looking at the distant skyline. Under the sunlight, the distant skyline was like a golden ribbon, connecting the sky and the earth. Sora's eyes seemed to linger on the ribbon, as if he was thinking about some profound question.
After a moment, Kong slowly withdrew his gaze as if he had finally made a decision. He took a deep breath, and the breath seemed to carry a hint of determination, just like the decision in his heart, firm and unshakable. Then, his eyes fell on Lin Feng, and he slowly said: "Lin Feng, you take Paimeng and leave, I want to stay in Liyue Port."
Lin Feng was not too surprised when he heard this. His understanding of Kong had made him anticipate this decision. He frowned slightly, and after a moment of hesitation, he said, "Forget it, I'll stay here, and I won't leave." His voice was calm and firm, without the slightest hesitation.
Paimeng, who was standing by, couldn't help but feel a little scared when she heard Lin Feng's words. She originally thought that Lin Feng would take her away from this dangerous place, but she didn't expect that Lin Feng would decide to stay. She gritted her teeth and said calmly, "I'll stay here with you too. It should be okay. It will be okay."
Lin Feng felt a little amused when he saw Paimeng pretending to be calm. He couldn't help but comfort him, "Don't worry, you'll be fine with me here!" However, Paimeng glanced at him with disdain and snorted, "Lin Feng, why don't you listen to what you are saying? I'd rather follow Shen He than you. At least she looks more reliable than you."
Lin Feng was speechless for a moment after being criticized by Paimeng. He wanted to make some excuses, but swallowed the words back. After all, considering his performance during this period, it was no wonder that Paimeng said that. He really didn't know how to explain this matter.
"Oh... okay, let's not talk about it anymore. Have a good rest today. Maybe today is the last day. Shen He, you can sleep in this room, or should I find you another one?" Lin Feng sighed helplessly and turned to ask Shen He.
Shen He nodded slightly, his cold face didn't show much expression, but his eyes revealed a subtle resistance. Someone had just slept in this room, and if he rested in it, it would be a little hard to accept, so he said softly: "Please."
Lin Feng saw that Shen He seemed reluctant to stay inside, so he decided to take Shen He and the other two people along the corridor.
The corridor was spacious and bright, with beautiful paintings hanging on the walls on both sides. These paintings seemed to be a long scroll of Liyue's history, vividly depicting the beautiful scenery of Liyue's mountains and rivers and its long history and legends. The sunlight shone through the windows onto the ground, forming patches of golden light that shone like broken gold. Their figures shuttled through these spots of light, and their footsteps echoed in the silent corridor, as if they were traveling through a tunnel of time.
After walking for a distance, Lin Feng found a room for everyone. The layout of these rooms is simple and warm, the beds are soft and comfortable, and the light coming through the windows makes the whole room full of warmth. After Lin Feng carefully arranged the room for everyone, he turned and walked towards the first floor.
Although Lin Feng did not have much deep feelings for these people, and his intuition told him that nothing unexpected would happen tomorrow, he still felt it necessary to tell the relevant personnel about the situation out of caution. After all, "it is better to be safe than sorry", and any small negligence could lead to unexpected consequences.
When Lin Feng walked to the lobby on the first floor, he looked around and his eyes finally fell on the staff member who was slacking off in the corner. The man was yawning out of boredom, with his eyes half open and half closed.
Seeing this, Lin Feng's face turned serious. He immediately walked forward quickly, stopped, cleared his throat, and said in a serious and low voice: "Well... listen carefully, notify the management here immediately and leave Liyue Port as early as possible tomorrow morning, because there will be major changes in Liyue Port tomorrow."
Although the voice was not loud, it created an inexplicable pressure in the air, as if the whole room became solemn because of his words.
The man who was resting with his eyes closed suddenly trembled when he heard the familiar voice, as if he was struck by lightning. He hurriedly opened his eyes and looked straight at Lin Feng, his eyes full of surprise and confusion.
After a long while, he came back to his senses, coughed twice unnaturally, and then stammered, "Ahem, um...is this news reliable?"
Lin Feng looked at his horrified expression and was speechless, but he still patiently explained: "Of course I'm telling you the truth. When have I ever lied to you? Go and inform them quickly, before it's too late."
