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

Page 131

After all, he has almost ruined the main character of this big drama in Liyue.

The first to be affected are naturally the travelers, who have transformed from passionate young girls into obsessed girls who secretly play Happy Beans under the covers at midnight.

Keqing, on the other hand, transforms into a powerful witch with a cold exterior but a repressed inner desire.

The young master has been transferred away from Liyue, and the lady is on her way. The doctor, hiding in the shadows, looks at the now unrecognizable plan with a resentful expression.

Without his presence, who knows what kind of mess things would have become.

With a sigh, Xu Guang naturally took on the responsibility of correcting the storyline, without recalling at all who had changed the storyline to this state.

Xu Guang watched the scene where the traveler was located with great interest.

In the sacrificial plaza, several shamans were chanting prayers for blessings. Then Ningguang summoned a jade stone, surrounded it around her body, and after a series of actions, the jade stone entered the incense burner, and a beam of light shot into the sky. This was a necessary part of the ritual to invite the immortals.

Ying looked ahead with a not-so-good expression.

It wasn't that she had any issues with Liyue, but rather that she had been traveling during the day and playing Happy Beans at night, which had depleted her mental energy too much.

That's why.

Today, Paimon even pushed me out to see some kind of celebration.

How could she not know?

This emergency food was simply meant to pull her out of her room and stop her from getting addicted to QQ Space.

But Ying wants to say, what's wrong with this kind of thing?

It makes her happy and doesn't harm society; it's practically the best value for money!

She knew what was going on with the search for blood relatives, and there was no need for the other party to keep pushing, especially since...

As her thoughts raced, Ying felt there was something she hadn't said aloud.

Just then, Paimon beside him let out a gasp.

"Wow, it looks like something fell from the sky."

Ying looked in the direction the other person was pointing and indeed saw something yellow falling.

Before she could react, a loud bang echoed across the square.

Ningguang, who was in charge of hosting the celebration, was taken aback at first, then quickly stepped forward and looked at the objects lying on the ground.

Even though Keqing had previously hinted to her in various ways that a major event would occur in the near future, it was still a problem.

But she never expected it to be this big.

Something bad is about to happen.

Ningguang almost shouted it out, but she managed to control the situation with her professionalism.

She stepped out from under the protection of the guards and waved her hand to quell the commotion below.

"The emperor has been killed! Lock down the whole place!"

Xu Guang, sitting in the restaurant, stared at the scene before him with twitching lips, speechless for a long time.

He kept complaining while he was playing it.

First of all, a demon god of Zhongli's strength is among the top in the Teyvat world. Who could assassinate him silently?

Secondly, your... dragon, which is neither too big nor too small, is over ten meters long. It fell from a great height and only smashed an incense burner, while all the other parts were injured.

It doesn't make any sense no matter how you look at it.

Ningguang, the ruler of the Liyue secular world, did not think about how to reduce her influence, but instead chose the strategy that attracted the most comments.

He would never believe that the people behind this bizarre incident were unaware of it.

But given the situation, what could he do? He could only watch the show unfold.

He won't intervene unless the plot takes an extremely absurd turn.

However, thinking about this, Xu Guang recalled what would happen next. If he remembered correctly, the traveler would be labeled as a suspicious person, then escape, and finally be rescued by the young master.

So the question is, where is the young master at this point in time?

Xu Guang opened the location where the young master was currently, and remained silent for a moment.

At this moment, the other party was wearing a black hood and hiding on a ship docked in the harbor.

Given the current situation, it seems unlikely that they will come.

Xu Guang sighed.

This is the butterfly effect.

The more enjoyable it was to coach Ke Qing back then, the more troublesome it is to clean up the mess now.

After thinking for a moment, Xu Guang got up, changed his clothes, and walked towards the travelers.

……

“We seem to be suspicious people near the venue. That’s not all, we’re even from out of town, we only came here recently.”

Paimon looked worriedly at the armored soldiers who had gathered around him and offered his opinion.

"Why don't we leave first? Otherwise, it will be troublesome if we get questioned."

The traveler nodded. It was only because she hadn't been in good condition these past few days that she was able to find out what the problem was.

They were just suspicious individuals; they didn't actually assassinate the Emperor.

The people of Liyue can't be forced to confess under torture.

Even if that's the case, she's still an honorary knight of the Knights of Favonius. With that status, even if the people of Liyue really want to touch her, they'll have to consider the consequences.

There was absolutely no need for the dog to sneak away.

The truth is, for travelers, even complex thinking is difficult. The key is that the atmosphere is right there, and it would be a shame not to do something.

So the two little ones quietly slipped away from the soldiers' sight and slowly walked out of the venue.

The process wasn't too difficult, but unfortunately, towards the end, Ying accidentally stepped on a shard of porcelain, and the noise successfully attracted Qianyanjun's attention.

Just when she thought everything was over, a voice came.

"You don't look very well. You haven't been resting properly lately."

If the traveler had heard this familiar voice elsewhere, he would have been extremely wary. But now, he felt as if he had seen a savior and quickly turned around to look at the person, mouthing a plea for help.

Chapter 184: White Background?

"What did you say? I can't hear you!"

Xu Guang nonchalantly took a few steps forward, pretending not to see the other person's increasingly terrified expression, and approached the other person, asking in a louder voice.

Ying fell silent. She looked at the other person without saying a word, sighing inwardly.

They've been terribly wronged; now they seem to be labeled as some kind of suspicious person with an unknown background.

"who!"

Several Thousand Rock Army soldiers slowly approached, and only after they stepped around the corner and stood in front of Xu Guang and the others did they frown and ask, "Who are you, and what are you doing here?"

Xu Guang smiled, held out his waist token, and showed it to the other person.

"Young man, you're not just blocking my path, you're blocking your own future. Do you still want to continue?"

The soldiers who noticed the waist tag exchanged glances in silence for a while, but no one raised any objections, even though there seemed to be two suspicious individuals standing behind the other person.

Several soldiers stood up straight and bowed respectfully: "We didn't know it was you, sir. We'll leave now."

After saying that, they lined up and left.

Just kidding. As soldiers, they can accept dying on the battlefield, but they cannot accept being killed by their own people without any explanation.

That's ridiculous.

However, he decided to tell Lady Ningguang later.

When the big shots fight, these small fry should just stay far away.

Paimon and the traveler stared wide-eyed at what they saw, and Paimon asked incredulously:

"Wait... could it be that you..."

Xu Guang revealed a reserved and humble smile: "Let me reintroduce myself. I am a special guest of Liyue. Welcome back to the clutches of evil."

Paimon was internally complaining.

Those were truly blunt words.

What do you mean by "back in the clutches of evil"? Does it mean that it's already confirmed that the two of them can't escape?

ridiculous?

Even if she were willing, would the traveler be willing?

Paimon stood with his hands on his hips, chest puffed out, and looked back at the traveler, only to catch a glimpse of the other swallowing.

and many more!

What's wrong with you?

The other party might do this or that to you.

Don't look so excited!

Ying was silent for a moment, recalling the other party's... passion before. Her breathing quickened slightly, and she said without showing any emotion, "Do you think I would give in?"

Paimon breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

Sure enough, the traveler was quite reliable; that expression she just made was probably just her imagination.

However, she soon heard the other party continue, "Unless you can guarantee that it won't get inside, I will never agree to your perverted request!"

Hearing Ying's righteous words, Xu Guang sighed and said with some difficulty, "Although it's difficult, I'll try my best..."

Ying let out a soft "Eh," and nodded somewhat hesitantly, "Okay then, but you promised you absolutely can't get it inside!"

She was quite open-minded; since she couldn't resist anyway, she might as well exchange what the other party needed for some of her own convenience.

And it really is very comfortable.

Otherwise, she wouldn't be doing it three times a day now. The first two times were normal amounts, but the third time it started to become sticky and opaque. This can't go on forever.

Paimon held his forehead, his eyes devoid of light.

Maru, this Traveler is hopeless. Is there any way to fix this? She didn't complain when I played Happy Beans every day, but now...

Skipping over the banter, Xu Guang extended his hand, gesturing for the other person to follow.

"We'll have a more in-depth discussion tonight. For now, let's talk about where to go. After all, I'm just a delicate and powerless guest advisor. At most, I can intimidate ordinary soldiers, but I'm powerless when facing other important figures."

Paimon floated in mid-air, stamping his foot in exasperation: "You'd never get an answer to this kind of thing from us newcomers."

Xu Guang smiled and said, "Of course I know about this. But I always believe in equal exchange. We're not related now, so if you want the services you want, you'll have to pay extra."

As he spoke, his eyes looked unabashedly at several of the traveler's most sensitive areas.

Ying nodded and objectively assessed the cost of the transaction.

Firstly, it was exactly what she wanted, and secondly, it allowed her to evade capture.

That would be the best of both worlds.

"Okay then, so where shall we go?"

Xu Guang smiled and narrowed his eyes as he heard the hint of expectation in the other person's tone.

Oops, it seems I accidentally turned the other person into my own shape.
