Chapter 956 Hazard's Defenses Are Broken
“You wouldn’t dare lay a hand on me,” Iya explained further.
Azar's face instantly darkened: "You say I wouldn't dare to lay a hand on you? Ridiculous! There's nothing I wouldn't dare to do in this Sumeru!"
Iya immediately said, "Then go punch Caesar for me, the kind that goes right in the face."
“…” Hazard remained silent.
Is this a question of whether or not one dares? Isn't this a question of whether one can survive if one walks up to Caesar, gets punched, and then walks away?
Hazard could still feel the pain in the spot where Caesar had punched him during the Flora Festival not long ago.
If it weren't for the doctor's help with treatment, Hazard felt he would still be lying in the intensive care unit of the Church of Christ.
Iya smiled and said, "So there are still things you don't dare to do. Since there are, that naturally includes not daring to lay a hand on me."
Hazard's face darkened: "Arrogant."
"Whether it's arrogance or not..." Yi Ya said calmly, "wouldn't a simple analysis make it clear?"
"Your confidence comes from that false god that is still taking shape, but gods are not something that only you Sumeru can have."
“Since you know that I am the offspring of the Phoenix, then you must also know that the Phoenix is also a deity.”
Iya looked at Azar with a hint of mockery: "Unlike the false god you have high hopes for, whose combat power is unknown, Phoenix's title of God of Slaughter was earned in the war between demon gods."
"Even if you are truly confident that your false god can defeat my elders, are you confident that the false god you created can fight two against one?"
"With your intelligence, surely you don't know that the Demon God created by the people of Liyue, the God of Destruction Obelisk, is currently patrolling Liyue above Guili Village?"
"And there's also Dust Queen, who is one of the three Liyue Archons alongside Geo Archon and Ho-Oh. Is she still alive today?"
Iya paused, then strolled over to Hazard and continued to analyze the situation for him:
"The Emperor has passed away, and the Dust King has gone into seclusion, but Liyue still has a Marshal."
"Besides, Prince Chen is merely living in seclusion, not like the Emperor who has passed away. Even if you believe that the Emperor, who served as the link between Prince Chen and my family's elders, has passed away, the two of them are no longer related."
"But do you really think that my elders and Prince Chen have no familial ties whatsoever?"
"As long as there is even a little bit of kinship, it will be enough to get her to come out of seclusion."
Yi Ya's smile vanished, his eyes turning cold: "Because in the face of true gods, you are only worth a little bit of incense offerings."
"Even in the worst-case scenario, Liyue now has three gods. Even if you say that the God of Destruction and your false god are no different, you can still barely count them as two and a half?"
"In short, I only have one point to make..."
Iya leaped down from the platform, landed beside a guard, grasped the spear in his hand, pointed it at his own neck, and looked at Hazar:
“If I suffer even the slightest injury here, you, the false god behind you, and the entire Sumeru will bear the wrath of at least three gods.”
Are you really sure... you dare to touch me?
Azar stared at the tip of the spear, which was only an inch away from Iya's neck. His face flushed red and his jaw clenched.
He swore that he wanted to give the order right then and there for the guards to thrust their spears through Iya's throat.
But what Hazard actually said was—
"Put down your weapons!"
Upon receiving Azhar's order, the tense guards felt as if they had been granted a pardon. They loosened their grip, and the spears fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
Upon hearing this, Yi Ya's lips curled into a meaningful smile: "I knew your confidence only applies to the Little Lucky Grass King."
[Iya looked so cool in that scene.]
[It's truly a case of following the same pattern; this scene directly evokes the illusion of Brother Bai.]
[Iya: I'm standing right here, if you dare touch me, you're the one who gets a thumbs up.jpg. If any of you royalists survive, then I'm the one who gets this contempt.jpg]
On the surface, Yiya only has Bai Ge behind her, but if something really happens to her... all sorts of monsters and demons from Liyue will appear.
Wendy: If something really happens to Little Eya, then I, Mondstadt, can't just stand by and watch.
[Raiden Shin and Kage: Let me see who wants to be built into the statue?]
[↑I hadn't remembered if you hadn't mentioned it, but the other two countries also have pretty good personal relationships with Bai Ge.]
Hazard took a deep breath, his gaze fixed on Iya: "You just mentioned... 'False God'? It seems you're not entirely ignorant of our work."
Hazard revealed a smug smile: "Since that's the case, why don't you come to praise our 'great achievements,' but instead raise those trivial concerns, trying to sway me..."
Iya rolled her eyes: "Look how smug you are. If Uncle Caesar hadn't been too lazy to bother with you, do you think you would have had a chance to complete it?"
Hazard's face turned pale.
If the other party questions his deification efforts, he has reason to say that it is tarnishing their current great achievements.
However, the other party directly criticized Hazard for having the right timing, location, and people to complete the plan, which immediately silenced him.
Because lies cause no harm, but the truth is the knife that cuts to the bone.
Hazard wasn't a sage for the first time, and he naturally knew that if the "first sage" of 500 years ago wanted to deal with his royalists, he wouldn't even need to lift a finger.
He could only flick his sleeves and angrily rebuke Iya: "Ignorant! Don't think that just because you are the son of a god, you can tarnish the great cause we are undertaking!"
“Creating gods…we are creating gods with human wisdom!” Adar’s expression became extremely excited when this was mentioned, as if he was about to fulfill his faith.
He spread his arms wide, his expression excited: "If humanity cannot reach 'omniscience and omnipotence,' then let us create gods to reveal it! This is the pinnacle of human wisdom."
"..." Iya looked at Azar with a caring gaze, "You mean the pinnacle of wisdom is something we Liyue have already mastered?"
"..." Hazard's expression froze.
Iya began to berate Hazard: "And based on what we know about the god-making plan, if that false god really comes into being, does it really have anything to do with the wisdom you talk about?"
"..." Hazard's expression froze completely.
Iya started counting on her fingers: "Brother Rogue was created by Sister Thor, it has nothing to do with you;"
"The source of the divine knowledge you use to create gods is the Red King and the Great Tree King... Sister;"
"Only the outer shell of the mecha was made by humans, but as far as I know, the main engineering work on the outer shell was done by the Fatui. May I ask what part of the process you were involved in?"
With each word Iya uttered, Azar's face paled further, until, as soon as he finished speaking, this great sage of the royalists collapsed into his seat.
