Chapter 269 Shunping Provides Clues

"Never mind, no rush... The game is only just reaching its climax."

"My lord, during your absence, one of the four energy pillars on Sky Island went out... Did you activate this energy?"

"Yes, it's me."

"My lord, after you mobilize the time energy, time on the Teyvat continent will become sealed during this period when time energy is lacking. In other words, in this Teyvat timeline without the protection of time energy, no one can use the power of time to travel to this time period."

"By exchanging a period of time-space closure for the authority of one of the seven gods, do you think I lost or gained?"

As Tenri spoke, he stood up with great interest and inadvertently appeared in front of Asmodeus.

"My lord, in my opinion, you have made a profit."

"Good to know. By the way, how's Paimon's mission going?"

"Reporting to my lord, she is currently... in Inazuma."

The scene changes.

Inazuma, an outlying island.

Main street.

"Want to know how I acquired the [Statue of the Great Master of the Imperial Palace]? Hmph, don't even think about it!"

A man named Shunping shook his head dismissively after being recognized by Ying and Paimon.

"Huh? Why? We're not buying your doll, we're just asking for some information~"

As Paimon spoke, he drew a circle in the air, puzzled.

"Stop asking, I'm not going to tell you."

After saying that, Shunping shrugged.

"how so……"

Feeling hopeless once again, Zaoyou lowered her head in despair and closed her eyes tightly.

She could almost see Kujo Sara beckoning to her.

Meanwhile, Xunfeng looked at Shunping with a serious expression.

"This doll, was it sold to you by [an insider]?"

"What?! How did you know?"

Upon hearing this word, Shunping frantically scratched the back of his head.

"Because we are [professionals]!"

As Hu Tao spoke, she proudly pushed the early pomelo to the front.

"Huh?! Huh... Yes, that's right! We, we are [professionals]!"

After saying that, Zaoyou was forced to recover from the crash.

"Sigh, alright... since you already know... let's make it clear first, don't spread it around."

Shunping cautiously looked around at his surroundings while mysteriously lowering his voice to give a reminder.

"Actually, I arrived early to queue up, but unfortunately... the first batch of statues sold out very quickly. I wasn't satisfied, so I ran to the back door of the rooftop to find out when the next batch of figurines would be released..."

"Unexpectedly, one of the shop assistants ignored me and kept carrying box after box of figurines out of the store! I thought I'd go up and ask what was going on, and then..."

After saying that, Shunping hesitated for a moment, but still chose to speak.

"He dismissed them with a doll."

"So... this doll was actually hush money he gave you?!"

Paimon, standing to the side, tilted his head curiously.

"What hush money? I paid the full amount properly and bought it legitimately from the clerk!"

After saying that, Shunping straightened his back with a righteous air.

Just then, an untimely but chilling voice came from not far away.

Whether something is right or wrong is not up to you to decide.
