"Dear Azhdaha, I actually think that there might be some misunderstanding between you and Morax..."
Facing the imposing and furious "Azhdaha," Su Yuan did his best to suppress the fear and tension within him and slowly spoke:
"Perhaps, contrary to what you believe, Morax isn’t the one responsible for destroying the rock layers and the leylines — in fact, he’s been helping to repair the damage instead?"
Although Su Yuan knew that trying to reason with someone tainted and controlled by the Eerie was basically impossible...
Still, no matter what, he had to try — anything to buy more time...
"Even if Morax isn’t the culprit behind the destruction of the rock layers and leylines, a war between him and me is inevitable!!!"
The "Azhdaha" snarled viciously:
"The pain and loneliness of being sealed away for a thousand years... the despicable theft of the ancient dragon’s authority..."
"It is time... to settle everything!!!"
Roaring with fury, "Azhdaha" charged straight toward the direction where Zhongli stood!
At that critical moment, Zhongli’s voice echoed from within the house:
"Su Yuan, it’s done!!!"
Su Yuan and Zhongli both breathed a sigh of relief.
Thank goodness—they had made it just in time...
With this, "Azhdaha" should stop his attack now... right?
But to Su Yuan’s shock, Azhdaha’s massive frame still surged forward like a mountain crashing down, barreling straight toward the house where Zhongli and Ganyu were!
In an instant, the entire house was crushed into dust!
"Zhongli!!! Ganyu!!!" Su Yuan cried out in shock as he witnessed the scene.
Based on what Zhongli had just said, why hadn’t "Azhdaha" stopped?
Why did he still throw his massive body forward and crush everything?
Was it because his sheer size and weight made it impossible to stop in time due to inertia?
Or... had Zhongli’s method failed?
Guiding the Eerie power out of the leylines and the rock strata wasn’t enough to reverse Azhdaha’s eerie state?
Like drinking a bottle of poison—even if you try to pump your stomach, the damage is already done.
It’s impossible to recover instantly.
Or maybe... maybe Azhdaha had already broken free from the Eerie’s control—but due to the erosion, he was still rampaging like a mad beast?
Whatever the reason, the situation was clearly grim!
After being crushed under that massive weight, were Zhongli and Ganyu still okay?
Su Yuan took a closer look at Azhdaha’s condition.
Now, it seemed that the aura of the Eerie power had disappeared from his body...
But his expression was still twisted and ferocious as ever.
It looked like things were most likely in line with Su Yuan’s last guess...
However, in the very next moment, from beneath the rubble of the collapsed house, a surge of eerie power shot into the sky, blasting away the debris that had been weighing down the wreckage!
In the center of the battlefield, Ganyu emerged — her face distorted, her entire body radiating with eerie power, bow in hand!
It seemed that Zhongli and Ganyu’s plan had succeeded — they had successfully drawn the eerie energy out of the rock layers and leylines, and transferred it into Ganyu’s body instead!
But Su Yuan didn’t see any sign of Zhongli.
He had probably made sure to avoid Azhdaha...
Still, the current situation was far from optimistic!
Although they had indeed brought Azhdaha out of his eerie state, now he was driven mad by erosion — and frankly, there didn’t seem to be much of a difference at all...
Moreover, the situation had merely shifted from a fully Eerie Zhongli versus a fully Eerie Azhdaha...
to a partially Eerie Ganyu versus an Azhdaha driven mad by erosion.
"Su Yuan, over here."
At that moment, Su Yuan heard Zhongli’s voice coming from behind a massive boulder nearby.
Sure enough, Zhongli was unharmed — he had been hiding just behind that huge rock...
"Su Yuan, what do you think the outcome would be if Ganyu and Azhdaha fought now?" Zhongli asked.
"Though Ganyu is only partially corrupted by the Eerie, the suppression that the Eerie power exerts over elemental energy is utterly overwhelming and unreasonable..."
Su Yuan thought for a moment before replying:
"Right now, the Azhdaha Geo Dragon Sovereign is absolutely no match for an Eerie state Ganyu..."
"A lowly half-Adepti dares to act so arrogantly in front of me?!"
Facing Ganyu’s attack, Azhdaha roared with rage — clearly furious!
"You despicable Adepti... You’re a race superior to humans, and yet you choose to help them??? You even went so far as to bear offspring with them—utterly incomprehensible!!!"
"This world of Teyvat was clearly meant to be ruled by dragons! Pathetic humans should grovel beneath our feet!!!"
Hearing Azhdaha’s furious roar, Su Yuan couldn’t help but think—why did Azhdaha now sound a bit like Neuvillette?
Regardless of the reason, once they lose their sanity and fall into madness, do dragons all carry such deep-seated resentment toward humanity in the depths of their hearts?
And yet, in the face of Azhdaha’s roaring rage, "Ganyu" said nothing.
Silently, she raised her bow, infused it with eerie power, and formed an arrow—then loosed it straight at Azhdaha!
However, whether it was due to "Ganyu’s" current partial corruption not being strong enough, or simply because Azhdaha’s hide was just that thick, the eerie-infused arrow, though it hit him squarely, didn’t seem to cause any real damage...
Watching this unfold, Su Yuan suddenly remembered — aside from using the Eerie to fight the Eerie, physical attacks also seemed to be effective against it!
The thick, sturdy armor on Azhdaha’s body wasn’t formed from Geo elemental energy — it was his actual, tangible flesh...
With that in mind, the situation now seemed to have taken a complete 180-degree turn.
"Ganyu," currently wielding only limited Eerie power, didn’t seem capable of breaking through Azhdaha’s defenses at all!
"Zhongli, it looks like the situation has changed..."
Su Yuan swallowed hard and said to Zhongli beside him:
"Azhdaha’s physical body... seems a little too overpowered..."
"With Ganyu’s current level of attack... it doesn’t look like she can even scratch his defenses..."
"Azhdaha doesn’t even need to use elemental power — he can completely overpower Ganyu with just brute force..."
"As expected, we’ll still have to seal Azhdaha once more..." Zhongli said with a trace of helplessness.
"But Zhongli, you can’t meet Azhdaha face-to-face right now — so how do you plan to fight him and seal him again?"
"Besides, you mentioned before that back then, Azhdaha still retained a sliver of rationality — he willingly entered into a contract with you and accepted being sealed..."
"But now, he seems to have completely lost his mind due to erosion. There’s no way to communicate with him anymore..."
"Even if you could confront him directly and defeat him, the consequences of the battle would undoubtedly spread across all of Liyue!"
