Genshin Impact: I, Heavenly Principle, Will Make Teyvat Supreme-Chapter 118: The Tyrannical Authority Feared by the Gods Has Returned
Phanes said, "My two shadows—so you've already taken them, haven't you?"
Noah stroked his chin. "They're quite useful—obedient and submissive. I imagine you'll be just as useful, won't you?"
As the origin of the Four Shades, Phanes surpassed both Asmoday and Istaroth in strength and physical maturity.
And that was despite the fact that they had grown nearly ten times stronger than before.
In other words, Phanes' shadows possessed only a tenth of her power.
Asmoday was now at a surface level of strength, whereas Phanes was at a planetary level—capable of reducing an entire planet to cosmic dust with a single full-powered strike.
Due to the Teyvat world being a large-scale world bubble with spatial and temporal constraints, her planetary-level power was not fully displayed.
However, when she had first descended upon Teyvat, she had possessed the power to create a world barrier that completely isolated the outside universe. She had even created a sun to eradicate the dragons on the Teyvat continent, once evaporating the entire ocean in the process.
It could be said that the original Seven Dragon Sovereigns were boiled to death by the sun Phanes had created.
Phanes sighed helplessly. "With such overwhelming power, why are you still so intent on subduing me?"
Without a word, Noah manifested a whip in his hand. "It seems you've chosen the second option."
Phanes' expression remained unchanged. "My shadows have already become your retainers—I cannot be placed on the same level as them. At the very least, I must be the mistress."
Noah did not hesitate. This was all within his expectations. "You want to be the mistress? No problem. Then let's begin the ritual now."
With that, he stepped forward, seized Phanes' arm, and pulled her into his embrace.
Phanes did not resist, allowing herself to be handled.
Having traveled through countless worlds, she understood all too well the laws of the strong preying on the weak—though up until now, she had always been the strong.
Even within the vast macrocosm, she was far from weak.
Moreover, with the power to create microcosms, it was impossible to predict how strong this man would become in the future.
She could feel it—Teyvat was still growing.
This man would one day become the ruler of an entire macrocosm.
Noah could only marvel—Phanes, as the original form of the Four Shades, had a body that was astonishingly perfect, infinitely close to an ideal state. Was this the physique of a primordial being? Every aspect of her body was flawless.
It was the very perfection that Rhinedottir, that deranged woman, had so desperately pursued.
At the height of his enjoyment, he pulled Istaroth and Asmoday into the scene as well.
Istaroth grabbed Phanes' arm with a mischievous grin. "Hehe, old master, you're really something else. So powerful, yet you still can't take it?"
She had long wanted to cross this line. If this had been in the past, Phanes would have undoubtedly destroyed and remade her from scratch.
Phanes bit her lip—her shadows were no longer under her control. They were now independent entities. A trace of helplessness flashed across her brow.
Even if she wanted to destroy these two shadows and claim the man for herself, he would never allow it.
As he played with Phanes, Noah simultaneously pulled her into the Pantheon System.
A new Holy God seat had been added above the Supreme Gods in the Pantheon System.
Since Noah had absolute authority over the system's hierarchy, Phanes' placement in this position was entirely his decision. Moreover, considering her immense power and legendary status, it was a logical choice—no god would dare to voice the slightest objection.
Simultaneously, Noah established a direct power channel between himself and Phanes, allowing her to share one-fifth of his strength.
Phanes, already wielding the power of the Human Realm and the Light Realm, saw her abilities skyrocket. Previously, she could destroy a single planet—now, she could annihilate multiple planets.
With such strength and abilities, she would be considered a supreme entity in many cosmic worlds.
As soon as the Pantheon System updated, every being within it received the notification.
Those below the level of the Primary God remained unaffected, but for those at the Primary God and above, it felt as if the heavens were collapsing.
Though most had never met Phanes in person, her aura and will were all too familiar.
...
Mondstadt
Venti, who had been drinking himself into oblivion at Angel's Share, suddenly sprang from his chair, his turquoise eyes filled with terror.
"What?! Phanes?!"
He immediately slapped himself across the face in an attempt to sober up. Frantically, he flipped through the Divine Pantheon Blueprint, and upon sensing that unmistakable will, his intoxication vanished in an instant.
"It's really Phanes! She's back! Ah—no, wait! This must be Lord Noah's doing!"
After the initial shock, he felt an overwhelming urge to weep.
The Holy God's throne signified that in the absence of the Heavenly Principle, Phanes would serve as its substitute, overseeing the order of the Teyvat Universe.
Why had Lord Noah revived her? That woman's will tolerated no impurity—she was the embodiment of absolute order!
And now, she had been assigned to regulate the Teyvat Universe… Was this not the equivalent of hanging a sword over the heads of all gods?
As Venti recalled Phanes' methods, he couldn't help but shudder violently, instinctively reaching for the back of his neck.
For a brief moment, his vision went dark—that tyrannical and absolute authority had returned to Teyvat.
...
Liyue
At Third-Round Knockout, Zhongli had been serenely sipping tea while listening to an opera performance. But the moment he sensed the change, his expression froze.
The teacup slipped from his fingers, shattering upon the ground, soaking the hem of his robe.
...
Fontaine
Focalors, upon sensing the alteration in the Pantheon System and feeling the unmistakable aura of the Holy God, went weak at the knees and nearly collapsed. Terror filled her gaze.
Only after confirming Noah's presence did she finally feel a sense of security and manage to regain her composure.
"Wh—Why would Lord Noah revive her? Is the Teyvat Universe that short on personnel?"
At that moment, Neuvillette, in the midst of reviewing documents, suddenly lost control of his quill. The feathered tip punctured straight through the parchment, leaving a gaping hole.
His expression twisted as if he had just consumed some vile, inedible substance.
"That usurper… has returned…"
...
Snezhnaya
Tsaritsa collapsed onto her divine throne in sheer terror, her entire body drenched in cold sweat. Her breath came in ragged gasps.
...
Inazuma
Raiden Makoto and Raiden Ei, after a brief moment of shock, quickly regained their composure.
They had never defied Phanes—there was no reason for her to seek them out without cause.
Besides, Teyvat's authority no longer rested in her hands.
...
After seven cycles of the sun and moon, Noah stepped out of Celestia, feeling refreshed.
A flash of Light Realm Force shimmered across Phanes' body, and in an instant, her tattered clothes were restored, immaculate and new. Every trace left on her skin vanished without a single mark remaining.
Noah turned back to look at Phanes. "For the time being, I will be leaving Teyvat. Handle things as you see fit. Just don't alter the fundamental order of Teyvat's operation—everything else is up to your own will."
Phanes nodded. "While you are away, you can leave the Teyvat Universe to me with confidence."
As she spoke, an aura of both cold indifference and boundless compassion naturally emanated from her.
Noah smacked Phanes on the hip. "Call me 'husband.'"
Phanes: "…Husband."
Noah waved his hand. "Good girl." With that, his figure gradually faded into the shadows.
During his time away from Teyvat, he had two key objectives—aside from entrusting tasks to Mondstadt, he also needed to recover the Tree of Life, Kabbalah.
After all, it was one of the two great truths of the cosmos—and for the universe to become a perfect cosmos, these two truths were indispensable.
...
Mondstadt
Noah appeared not far from Starfell Lake. Thinking back, he had already visited Inazuma, Liyue, Sumeru, Fontaine, and Snezhnaya. Yet, this was his first time coming to Mondstadt—the most peaceful and comfortable beginner's zone.
As expected of Mondstadt, it was adorably wholesome. The moment he arrived, he spotted a small red figure sneakily attempting some mischief.
The little figure was dressed in a red children's outfit that perfectly matched her leather satchel.
On her head sat a red beret with an extended brim, adorned with feathers and four-leaf clover patterns. Beneath the hat, her platinum-blonde hair was tied into two small pigtails. She wore gloves, a dress-like tunic, bloomers, knee-high white socks, and little leather boots.
There was no mistaking it—this mischievous little cutie was Mondstadt's strongest combatant, an otherworldly traveler, and the daughter of the Bomb Witch Alice—Klee.
Klee carefully set her small satchel on the ground and pulled out a bomb nearly as tall as her calf, shimmering with the glow of all seven elements.
Her crimson eyes sparkled with excitement as she looked around cautiously. Then, she suddenly jumped for joy.
"Yay! I sneaked out, and Acting Grand Master Jean didn't notice!"
"If Jean finds out about the gift Mom sent me, she'll definitely confiscate it."
"Mom said this is a super-powerful bomb—an upgraded version of my usual ones. I think she called it an… Elemental Nuke? It's waaay stronger than my regular bombs!"
"If I use this for fish blasting, I'll definitely get tons and tons of fish!"
Klee's eyes gleamed like stars as she curiously examined the Elemental Nuke. "But… Mom never told me how to make it explode. How do I do it?"
She nibbled on her finger, her crimson eyes filled with confusion.
The sight was so unbearably cute that Noah, standing behind her, nearly had a nosebleed.
Too cute.
He had a soft spot for such pure and innocent souls.
"It's very simple. Just press the red button."
Klee's eyes lit up with understanding—completely oblivious to who had just spoken. "Ohhh, is that how it works?"
She pressed the red button with her tiny finger. "And then?"
"Then, you pull the safety pin. Lastly, activate it with elemental energy, and it'll explode."
"Oh, it's that easy? Thanks, um… huh?"
At that moment, Klee finally realized something was off. She quickly turned around and gasped, "Wah!"
After getting a good look at him, she pouted, puffing out her cheeks.
"Big brother, who are you? And why did you scare Klee?"
Noah squatted down, smiling at the pouting Klee.
"I didn't scare you. But I did catch you trying to use a super bomb to blast fish. Now, I'm going to tell Jean. How long do you think she'll lock you in solitary confinement this time?"
Klee panicked. She hurriedly hid the bomb behind her back, fumbling in her haste.
"Klee wasn't fish blasting! Klee doesn't have a bomb!"
Noah instantly mimicked Jean's authoritative aura.
"Klee, lying is not allowed."
Klee froze in shock, staring at him in disbelief.
"Big brother… y-you're just like Jean!"
Noah continued, his expression calm but firm.
"Klee, changing the subject won't work either."
Klee's eyes welled up with tears as she clasped her hands behind her back, gently swaying her body. Her adorable crimson eyes peeked up at this unfamiliar big brother, whose presence felt just like Jean's.
"Big brother, can you not tell Jean, please? Klee will treat you to grilled fish."
Noah crossed his arms. "Klee, you've even learned how to bribe people now? That makes me even more inclined to tell Jean."
Klee pressed her index fingers together, looking up at Noah with teary eyes.
"Then… what does big brother want Klee to do so he won't tell Jean?"
Noah could feel his heart melting at Klee's tearful expression, but he still extended his hand.
"First, hand over the bomb to big brother."
Klee panicked, clutching the bomb tightly in her arms.
"But this is a gift from Mom! Can Klee give you a different bomb instead?"
Noah smiled. "Jean—"
Before he could say more, Klee reluctantly handed over the Elemental Nuke, looking utterly dejected.
"Klee will give it to big brother… but big brother has to promise to give it back one day, okay?"
Noah accepted the Elemental Nuke. "When Klee grows up, I'll return it to you."
Klee's eyes sparkled with anticipation as she stuck out her pinkie finger.
"Pinkie promise! No take-backs for a hundred years!"
Noah chuckled, then scooped Klee into his arms.
"You little troublemaker. I think I'd better return this Elemental Nuke to your mom, Alice."

Being lifted into the air, Klee instinctively clung to his shoulders, feeling a little nervous.
But when she heard her mother's name, she bit her finger in confusion, her big red eyes blinking curiously at the face so close to hers.
"Big brother knows Mom?"
She had never seen him before in Mondstadt.
Noah balanced Klee in one arm while tossing the Elemental Nuke slightly in the other, testing its weight.
"Of course. She's an interdimensional traveler, after all. This Elemental Nuke is even a three-phase bomb. Alice must have spent quite some time on Earth—she even managed to figure out nuclear bomb mechanics."
"Tsk tsk. This Seven-Element Bomb isn't much weaker than the Tsar Bomba. If it exploded in Mondstadt, Starfell Lake would be wiped off the map."
Klee's big red eyes widened in shock—but then, she suddenly lit up with excitement.
"Earth?! Big brother, are you from Earth too?"
"That's right. But not the same Earth your mom visited."
Klee reached up and took the stuffed toy from her backpack, holding it out with bright, expectant eyes.
"Then, big brother, do you know what this is?"
Hearing her adorably hopeful tone, Noah couldn't help but smile.
"Isn't this Dodoco?"
The moment he said it, Klee threw her arms around his arm in excitement.
"Daddy! Big brother is Klee's daddy! No wonder—even though Klee never met big brother before, big brother recognized Klee right away!"
Noah smiled. "And why do you think I'm your dad?"
Klee blinked.
"Mom said Daddy is from Earth, and if he recognizes Dodoco, then he must be Daddy! Big brother is Klee's daddy, right?"
Her big, bright eyes were full of pure anticipation.
Noah couldn't resist those adorable eyes.
He gently kissed little Klee's cheek.
"If my little Klee believes it, then it must be true."
Receiving his confirmation, little Klee happily wrapped her arms around Noah's neck and called out sweetly,
"Daddy! Klee has a daddy now!"
Noah's golden eyes flickered briefly.
Klee didn't actually have a father—she was born through parthenogenesis. The elf race was unique in that they could reproduce without a partner, much like how Nahida was born from Greater Lord Rukkhadevata.
Noah gently patted Klee's back.
"Klee, let's go back to Mondstadt now."
Klee clapped her little hands excitedly.
"Yay! Daddy is going to find Mommy!"
