Genshin Impact: Supreme Justice of Teyvat-Chapter 19 - The Second Slaughterhouse! Creating Shadow Servants
Chapter Nineteen: The Second Slaughterhouse! Creating Shadow Servants
East District Flower and Bird Market!
Although it is called a flower and bird market, it is not just a place selling flowers and birds; it also offers a variety of small beasts and special kinds of poultry.
No matter the world, some wealthy people, often bored, enjoy trying new things, including exotic meats.
However, the wilderness in this world is extremely dangerous. Apart from the official roads guarded by the army, the rest are filled with lethal plants and fierce beasts.
This has given rise to a new, doorless profession—treasure hunters.
The name sounds good, but it is a high-risk industry, and treasure hunters often become rich overnight after finding rare plants and beasts.
However, what most people see is their wealth, unaware of how many treasure hunters venture deep into the wild and end up buried in the bellies of beasts.
This flower and bird market is where treasure hunters come to sell rare plants and beasts, and they even provide slaughtering services, which is why it is also called the second slaughterhouse.
However, Lu Yu is not here to seek novelty like those wealthy people. His purpose is not to find rare beasts or plants.
He is here to test his skill, Shadow Servant!
Shadow Servant: After absorbing enough shadows, the Void Spider can spawn a shadow servant (in spider form). A maximum of ten can be created, capable of blending into shadows, being natural assassins and loyal servants.
This is the original description of the skill. However, after extracting the skill and solidifying it within himself, the skill has undergone a change.
Shadow Servant: After absorbing enough shadows, the Void Spider can spawn a shadow servant (in both spider and human forms). A maximum of ten can be created...
The form option has changed from simply spider form to include both human and spider forms. This means the skill adapts based on the user’s characteristics.
This change greatly pleases Lu Yu, as if the shadow servants are in spider form, their appearance would easily be associated with the evil camp, and might tie them to the twisted Spider Sect.
However, human form is widely accepted among humanity and could help Lu Yu maintain his disguise.
Yet, this human-shaped shadow servant gives Lu Yu a sense of déjà vu, reminding him of a creature named Ghost Shadow Ninja from Jackie Chan Adventures.
The creature was strong, could fight, tank, and work. Though an ancient life form, it could also manipulate electronics—functioning quite comprehensively. When watching anime in his past life, Lu Yu had wished for such minions to give him massages, cook, and perform other tasks. Unfortunately, adulthood brought a dose of reality.
He hopes the ones he creates will be even smarter.
With this in mind, Lu Yu did not linger at the door and directly entered the renowned second slaughterhouse... uh, flower and bird market.
The structure inside is somewhat similar to a flower and bird market from his previous life. There’s a central walking path with numerous shops lined on both sides.
The scale of the North District Flower and Bird Market is quite large. Every 100 meters or so, there are three or four security guards maintaining order. The streets are filled with the strong smell of blood and animal droppings.
However, the people here seem to have gotten used to the smell and do not raise any objections.
After all, animals can’t use the restroom like humans, right?
Even if an animal were intelligent enough to use a toilet, its power wouldn’t be something a regular flower and bird market could hold.
Lu Yu scanned the area and bypassed some flower shops, heading directly to a rabbit shop.
Rows of cages were stacked together, with many rabbits cramped inside, most of them gray, though a few were white.
Although there were plenty of rabbits, the place was clean, with no strong odor.
The owner, a young man wearing glasses, had a regular appearance. Upon seeing Lu Yu, he simply nodded as a courtesy but did not show any enthusiasm.
After all, the flower and bird market sees a large flow of people daily, and most of them are just browsing. If the owner greeted every person warmly, he would have been exhausted by now.
As long as the genuine customers pay for what they want, it doesn’t matter if the greeting is cold.
Lu Yu was pleased to see the rabbit shop owner looking down at his phone, making it easier for him to test his skill.
He stepped forward and blocked a few cages with his body, scanning quickly and soon locking onto a large gray rabbit.
This rabbit was bigger than the others and stood a full head taller, occupying a small area of the cage. The other rabbits dared not approach it.
Because it took up so much space, the rabbit’s shadow on the ground was large and compact, casting a tangle of shadows.
“Big Brother Rabbit, you’re the one!”

A smile tugged at the corner of Lu Yu’s mouth, but the rabbit, sensing danger, began trembling and looked around with blood-red eyes.
But it was too late.
“Shadow Servant!”
Lu Yu raised his hand, and with a delicate motion of his index finger, a strange power he could only see gathered at the tip of his finger. This formed a gust of air that moved toward the rabbit’s shadow. Slowly, it took shape, resembling a pair of scissors that gently snipped at the shadow.
Snip!
