Chapter 21 Ganyu Joins the Team
"Ah Mao?"

"Hmm~ some strange names."

Xiao lowered his gaze and began to think about what to do next. He had heard the name "Amao" mentioned by Wendy before, but he didn't pay much attention to it at that time.

At this moment, the Emperor actually named him personally. Is there any deep meaning behind the Emperor doing this?

After a moment, Xiao responded:

"I will do my best to find someone."

"However, I have been walking in the wilderness for many years and have never set foot in the human world. I wonder if it is appropriate for me to be Liyue's 'representative' and negotiate with the rulers of this world's humans?"

Xiao expressed his concerns.

I am really not good at interpersonal communication.

Hearing this, Morax remained calm and responded calmly:

"Originally, the immortals were planning to entrust Ganyu with these two tasks. For many years, she has been working at Yue Hai Ting, serving as the secretary of the 'Liyue Seven Stars', responsible for various reception and negotiation tasks. She is the most suitable candidate for this commission."

"but……"

Having said that, Morax turned his gaze and fell on the "Seven-Colored Demonic Deer" not far away.

At this time, the Devil Night Deer was already dying. Grandma Ping immediately walked to her side and used her magical power to heal its wounds.

Morax continued:

"The humans in this world seem to harbor great malice towards birds and beasts. Ganyu, as a unicorn bloodline and a semi-immortal beast, should be regarded as an auspicious existence."

"But in this world, she is walking in the human world. It will be very difficult for her to complete this commission."

As he spoke, Morax's steady gaze fell on Xiao again.

"Your true form is not human, but your appearance is no different from that of an ordinary person."

"So, I want to give this commission to you."

Xiao understood and nodded seriously.

"understood."

"I will do my best to do what the Emperor has entrusted me with."

Morax nodded, showing a look of approval.

"As for the search for 'Amao', you can leave it to Ganyu."

"After discussion among the gods, Xumi was contaminated by the Death Realm and could no longer survive, so the first batch of people were sent there first. Inazuma was also in danger after being attacked by the Dark Sea, so the people of Inazuma were sent there in the second batch. Mondstadt was the third batch, and Liyue was the fourth batch."

"So, the time left for you is more than enough!"

Hearing this, Xiao frowned.

"Fontaine and Natta have almost completely fallen! And the Queen of Winter, in order to protect the people, seems to have reached an agreement with the Abyss."

"In that case, aren't we the people of Liyue the last batch?!"

"Emperor, you...are you going to fight until the last moment?"

At this point, Xiao was a little excited. The Emperor chose to hold on until the last moment. The brutal war would take away countless lives every day!

When we meet again next time, I wonder how many of my old friends will be alive? And I have to stay out of this fight!
For a while.

Worry and guilt made Xiao lower his eyes.

Morax stretched out his hand and gently patted Xiao on the shoulder.

"We chose to hold on to the end because the domain gate is still being built!"

"During the previous three transmissions, the gods of various countries had to make choices and abandoned a large part of their people."

"But I don't want to give up anyone in Liyue."

"When I return again, I will protect all the people of Liyue and cross the void to come to this other world!"

After Morax finished speaking, he raised his hand to signal the immortals. Then, he turned around and prepared to leave.

The immortals waved goodbye to Xiao one after another, and then followed the footsteps of the Emperor closely.

After a brief reunion, Xiao was left alone.

Under the vast night sky, this deep forest regained its former tranquility.

Xiao has never been afraid of death, but he is only afraid of being alone.

Loneliness is like a double-edged sword.

Just when I was hesitating.

A tentative call came from beside Xiao.

"Hmm... The Great Saint Who Subdues Demons!"

Gan Yu spoke softly, her voice as ethereal and pleasant as a spring. "In fact, the Emperor has many things that he has not yet told you."

Xiao couldn't help but be a little surprised and turned to look at Ganyu.

At this moment, she held up the little rock dragon in her hands and handed it to Xiao.

Xiao didn't know what it meant, so he could only stretch out his hands and take the cute rock-type dragonet.

The rock dragon that was waving its short legs and struggling just now miraculously calmed down in Xiao's arms.

Ganyu couldn't help but smile, her eyes were like two crescent moons.

"It seems that this little guy likes you very much!"

Ganyu stretched out her slender hand and gently poked the little guy's belly with her index finger.

The little guy immediately got angry, waving his four short legs up and down and making "chirping" sounds in protest.

After a while.

Ganyu retracted her fingertips and turned her gaze to Xiao.

"Actually... the Emperor's original intention was for you to take this little fellow with you and give yourself a long vacation!"

"As for finding that 'Amao', or negotiating with the ruler of this world as a representative, these are all insignificant matters!"

In Xiao's surprised eyes, Ganyu continued to explain:

“During this crossing of the void, Tianquan Ningguang, Yuheng Keqing, and Beidou, the managers of Liyue Harbor, also came to this world at the same time.

"With their skills and abilities, even if... you and I don't do anything, they can still arrange the contact matters in an orderly manner!"

"Once they have made all the arrangements, you, the 'Great Saint Conquering Demons', will come forward as Liyue's 'representative' to go through the motions, and everything will fall into place."

Upon hearing this, Xiao seemed to understand the Emperor's intention.

"It is more appropriate to leave human affairs to humans!"

"As for us, we just need to hide in the dark and keep them safe."

Gan Yu was stunned and shook her head vigorously.

"No, no!"

"It is my job to protect the safety of the seven planets of Liyue! And your job now, 'Demon Conqueror', is to put down your weapons and take a long vacation."

"Didn't you say you're not good at socializing? Wouldn't it be meaningful to take this opportunity to travel around and make some new friends?"

Xiao lowered his eyes and acted a little cold about this.

"I don't need friends, and I don't need rest!"

Hear the words.

Ganyu was so angry that she pouted, her expression speechless and helpless.

"you……"

"You should be aware of your own body."

"If we continue to fight like this, we will be eroded by karma and die sooner or later!"

"You may not care! But whether it is the Emperor, True Lord Liuyun, or all the immortals, they are all worried about this."

Ganyu became a little excited when she spoke of this.

"You said you didn't need friends. But don't we who have been with you for a thousand years count as friends?"

Hearing this, Xiao's heart was suddenly shocked.

For a while.

The atmosphere fell into silence.

Ganyu clenched her fists, seeming to want to say something but stopping herself.

Xiao was silent for a moment, then responded seriously.

"I see!"

"But I... have never been deep into the human world, and I am not good at socializing."

"So, can I temporarily invite you to be my companion?"

Hear the words.

Ganyu nodded vigorously, with a gleam in her eyes.

"Yeah, of course!"
