In Genshin Impact, why are all the characters I play NPCs?

Xu Guang knew what this was, of course. He raised an eyebrow slightly, not expecting that the other party would have this trick up their sleeve.

Fanan simply felt that continuing to spend time might make the other side wait too long, so he thought that if they could eat more, it might be more effective.

Xu Guang also responded to her expectations.

He held Fanan's cheek and then passed all his warmth to her.

The main course is coming up later, so we really can't spend too much time here.

After drinking his fill, Fanan felt his body brimming with energy.

She looked up.

It made a popping sound and pulled out a thread.

Looking at this thing, Fa Nan blushed, wiped some on his face, and then asked a question.

"Is this alright?"

Xu Guang pulled up his pants and nodded: "If you don't fight, it's about right, but if you fight, once the energy depletion gets too high, you'll have to replenish it again."

Fa Nan let out a sound of surprise, but he was not surprised.

Not long ago, I even had some difficulty walking, but now it's much better.

In terms of combat...

My brothers and sisters are still alive, so whether I'm one more or one less shouldn't be a big problem.

The two of them went back like that.

Hisaki Shinobu closed the book without asking anything about whether it was over or not.

She knew that there was still a long road ahead.

Xu Guang stretched his limbs and said energetically, "Alright, let's go."

Meanwhile, Yingda looked at Fanan beside him and asked curiously, "Are you feeling any better? How did you get treatment over there? Do I need it?"

Fa Nan gave an awkward smile and simply said that he was much better.

The treatment process is something I can never talk about.

However, after looking at Yingda and thinking for a moment, she realized that whether he needed treatment was uncertain.

She really didn't know what was going on. She was the one who wanted to bring those two together, but it seemed like her connection with Xu Guang was getting deeper and deeper.

Meanwhile, outside the Abyss of Layered Rocks, Zhongli stood on the edge of a precipice, his gaze deep and unfathomable.

He wasn't as cold-hearted as he claimed.

Since it concerns my last Yaksha, I should at least come and see.

To my surprise, I actually saw it...

Can that guy really even bring the dead back to life?

Zhongli's stone heart stirred for a rare moment, then he shook his head again.

He had considered asking Xu Guang for help, requesting that he resurrect some people.

Those brave and fearless warriors who sacrificed themselves for Liyue.

He always felt that he hadn't done a good enough job as the Rock God. His sons followed him into battle, but after each war, every family ended up in mourning.

He used to say that the road to peace is never easy and that these sacrifices are inevitable.

But can we really remain indifferent now?

However, putting aside whether Xu Guang could actually resurrect so many people, let alone whether he could do it.

Even if it were possible to do so.

Centuries have passed, and the families and relatives of those warriors should be long gone.

What should I do to take care of them?

Shaking his head, Zhongli turned to leave.

Having seen what he wanted to see, Xu Guang knew that what lay beneath the towering abyss would indeed cause trouble, but it wouldn't be a problem for him.

The opponent is someone who can easily defeat a demon god.

But where should we go?

Let's go have tea with Xianyun; it's been many years since we last met.

It seems that after Gui Zhong left, the group of them had less and less contact.

As he pondered, Zhongli arrived outside the cave.

Then he gently stretched out his hand, displaying divine power.

In this way, the idle clouds inside the cave will be able to sense your arrival.

Soon, commotion came from inside the cave.

"Your Majesty!? What brings you here?"

Xianyun was still in the form of a crane. She flew over lightly, somewhat surprised.

Zhongli smiled and shook his head: "I just felt like we hadn't seen each other in a long time, so I came over to ask for a cup of tea, is that not allowed?"

Xianyun quickly waved his hand: "Of course, I can do it right away. Wait a moment and I'll get it done."

Seeing Xianyun rush out and then rush back in a flurry, Zhongli couldn't help but chuckle.

So many years have passed, and I'm still just as impulsive and careless.

I guess the other party will only restrain themselves when they are with Gui Zhong and the others.

After finding a seat, I looked at the familiar table and scene.

Zhongli sighed.

"I wanted to buy osmanthus flowers and share wine, but alas, my old friend is no longer here."

Of those who were with me back then, how many are still left?

Soon, Xianyun came out with the tea set. Looking at Zhongli, who was sitting there lost in thought, she smiled and said, "This tea set hasn't been used in a long time. I don't know where I put it. I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

Zhongli shook his head: "It's nothing, I just waited a little longer. But what have you been doing lately?"

Xianyun's smile froze; she didn't know how to respond.

If she told the truth, she would definitely be laughed at.

After all, it would be too embarrassing for an immortal like herself to be sitting in her room researching spells to make men seek her out.

So after a brief moment of thought, Xianyun gave an ambiguous answer.

"Nothing much, just teaching my disciples and then spacing out."

Zhongli nodded knowingly, pretending not to notice Xianyun's initial hesitation.

Everyone has secrets.

"That's not bad, but you shouldn't stay at home every day. Since what happened last time, you should go out into the world more often."

Xianyun seized the opportunity: "That's natural, but I haven't had much time lately. My little disciple is a bit of a handful."

Zhongli asked, "Is it that little girl named Shen He? What happened to her?"

Whether it's him or those immortals, they've all become complacent and stuck in their ways.

They rarely have contact with outsiders.

So, most people who knew Xianyun knew that he had taken on a new disciple.

Xianyun chuckled twice: "It's nothing, it's just that I don't go out much these days, and I'm afraid that if I continue like this, something will go wrong."

It's one thing to stay indoors, but at least you shouldn't be sleeping in a cave with a boy's clothes on, and then rubbing against him.

This makes people's hands go numb.

Chapter 445: Chiori

Zhongli nodded silently.

He had had many such casual conversations, but this was the first time he had had one with Xianyun in all these years.

After the war ended, they rarely crossed paths.

Previously, it was because of that person, but with that person's death, the glue that held them together seemed to have disappeared.

Zhongli hesitated for a moment before speaking slowly.

"I saw... Xiao and his brothers and sisters today."

Xianyun was still embarrassed and didn't react immediately, but she quickly widened her eyes.

What did she hear?

Xiao and his...brothers and sisters!?

If she hadn't believed that the Emperor would never joke at a time like this, she would have definitely shouted that it was impossible.

The celestial yakshas are widely regarded by outsiders as the Emperor's high-end combat force.

Now that we have the Yaksha, shall we guess who the immortal is?

Xianyun had a pretty good relationship with those few Yakshas; they were the kind of people who would exchange a few pleasantries if they bumped into each other on the street.

Therefore, after witnessing the eternal departure of many acquaintances, many immortals chose to live in seclusion.

She is no exception.

But what did she hear now?

Zhongli, observing Xianyun's changing expression, added another sentence.

"it is true."

Xianyun fell silent.

She definitely knows it's true.

Even if the Emperor had plenty of free time, he wouldn't make a special trip to find her just to play a joke that could be exposed at any moment.

"How...did they do that?"

Xianyun swallowed hard, feeling a little nervous.

She hadn't felt this way in a long time.

Moreover, she believed that the Emperor knew why he was asking this question.

Why did Ping'er change her appearance and live as a mortal in Liyue Harbor? And why is she hiding in a cave?

There is only one answer.

Zhongli picked up his teacup, sighed, and revealed the truth.

"If there are no surprises, it was done by that guy named Xu Guang."

Having said all he could say, Zhongli fell silent.

He quietly sipped his tea.

Even rocks, after years of exposure to various stimuli, cannot remain heartless forever.

He came here only to tell Xianyun who she should contact if she really wanted to do something.

Just so.

Xianyun took a deep breath, not surprised by the answer.

After all, it's that person; it's normal for them to do anything.

She was inexplicably annoyed.

But why didn't the other party tell me something so important?

Is it impossible?

Indeed, Gui was, after all, a demon god.

but……
