Genshin Impact: The Beginning of the Wind

Actually, Ying had wanted to ask who the little bottle floating next to Su Feng was before, but she just didn't say anything because she wasn't that curious.

But now Su Feng suddenly has this little bottle by his side?

"Lilupal is the most famous Great Town Spirit in the legend of Sumeru. She is the outflow of the Flower Goddess's power and now she has inherited the last remaining light of the Flower Goddess."

"As a great spirit, Lilupal may be of great help to you on your journey ahead—few people can compare to a spirit in terms of understanding human nature and intrigue, and she can help you resist any conspiracy."

"Moreover, Zhenling also possesses the power to control sandstorms, and I think this power should be able to provide you with more assistance in the desert."

Nasita explained in detail to Ying what kind of existence Lilupal was, and after listening to this series of explanations, Ying looked at Lilupal and Su Feng with curiosity.

"Honorable Winged One, I obey your command."

"It is also my honor to be by the side of this princess."

Lilupal did not resist Su Feng's order at all. After she had organized the light barrier power bestowed by Su Feng, she responded, and Su Feng nodded slightly.

“Lilupal, I once found some information about the Flower Goddess in the World Tree. There is a Sea of ​​Dew Flowers on the side of the Desolate Stone Desert, where many flower spirits split off from the former divine bird Seymour live. They can also be considered another continuation of the Flower Goddess’s power.”

"Perhaps you can go and meet them. Besides, these flower spirits have maintained the seal of the desolate desert for hundreds of years. If it weren't for their persistence, the calamities of the past would probably not have been so easily resolved."

"You might be able to get more help from Hua Ling."

Su Feng gently told Lilupal this information, and upon hearing of the presence of the Flower Spirit, a bright light suddenly flashed on Lilupal's silver bottle, which barely recovered after a while.

"Thank you for your guidance, Your Excellency Winged One."

"I will carry out your orders."

Having finally regained her composure, Lilupal gave a careful answer and then flew to Ying's ear.

"Your Highness, I will now draw up a contract with you regarding my true name. You will possess my true name, and I will offer you my insignificant power."

Although she didn't know what kind of being Ying was, Lilupal could clearly sense the shining light emanating from Ying's body—Ying may seem weak now, but that's only temporary.

For the creations of the heavens, power has never been the most important thing; what matters most is their innate status and nobility.

As for the power that can be mobilized?

It will take only a negligible amount of time to collect them.

Being able to protect this princess is quite a good job for Lilupal.

Chapter Sixteen: The Troublesome Great Witch

Do you think Ying can help us solve the problem of the desolate desert?

After Ying took Lilupal away, Su Feng brought Naxida back to the high sky to look out at the celestial phenomenon of Burning Truth. Naxida was filled with worry.

She certainly believed that Su Feng's strength was enough to solve all problems, but she also had to admit that if the calamity broke out again in the desolate desert, then Sumi would probably not be able to continue to resist another calamity.

She already knew very well how terrifying the aftershocks would be when true powerhouses clashed. After experiencing the battle between Su Feng and Irming in Gül City, she understood this perfectly well.

Nasita knew even better that neither side had likely exerted much of their strength in that brief battle.

"Don't worry, with me here, there won't be any major problems."

Su Feng, of course, sensed Naxida's worry, and he gently patted her back to comfort the little one.

In fact, Su Feng knew very well why Nasita was so worried—ultimately, it was because Nasita lacked self-confidence. Although she was the incarnation of the World Tree and the deity of Mount Sumeru, Nasita, who had lived in the shadow of the Great Tree King since birth, always lacked self-confidence.

Even after meeting the Great Tree King again and now having his help at any time, she still lacked any confidence. That's why she always stayed by Su Feng's side. In Nasita's eyes, Su Feng, who had helped her many times and solved many potential calamities in Sumeru from the beginning, was omnipotent.

But this idea is dangerous for Nasita.

Teyvat is becoming increasingly turbulent, and Nashda must grow stronger.

Su Feng couldn't stay by her side forever; one day Nasida would have to face all sorts of dangers on her own.

but......

Forget it.

Looking at the pitiful Naxida curled up in his arms, Su Feng gave up his idea. In the end, Naxida's strength was still somewhat weak, and the lack of sufficient strength was the root of everything.

In short, let him handle these matters for now.

"Speaking of which, I sensed something familiar. Maybe we can go and take a look; we might even encounter something interesting."

Temporarily setting aside his own thoughts, Su Feng looked down at the desert and said this. Upon hearing this, Naxida was filled with curiosity again—is this Thousand Ravines Desert so troublesome? Why are so many things piled up here?

Thus, Nasita, full of doubt, was led back to the desert below by Su Feng. This time, Nasita saw a 'bottle' and the witch holding the bottle again.

The moment Narcissus saw the witch, she immediately became alert, even her previously droopy pointed ears perked up again. After confirming that the witch in front of her was the one she knew, she jumped out of Su Feng's arms and looked at this 'troublemaker' with extreme vigilance.

"Great adventurer, renowned travel writer... Witch A, a member of the Witch Guild—Lady Alice, when did you arrive in Sumeru!"

Although she spoke with apparent respect, Narcida was actually extremely vigilant and almost wanted to use the World Tree's authority to send the witch directly out of Sumeru—the situation in Sumeru was already bad enough, and it would be too terrible if this great witch added fuel to the fire.

It's worth noting that Zhongli personally accompanied this person when they arrived in Liyue. The fact that the Geo Archon personally came out is enough to demonstrate this person's power and influence.

"Oh dear, am I being rejected? Seriously, I was just trying to find a nice summer vacation spot for my daughter."

"There's no need for two important figures to come knocking on my door the moment I show up, is there?"

Alice, the witch who also didn't expect Su Feng and Nasita to come to her door directly, was also a little troubled - if possible, even she didn't want to have too much interaction with these gods.

Although she has some privileges, if she really causes trouble, these gods are not to be trifled with either.

Even the most lawless person has to back down when facing local bullies. Moreover, the borders of Teyvat are becoming increasingly unstable. Just maintaining the borders is already a huge challenge for her. If she were to suddenly be targeted by some gods, it would be very troublesome.

and......

Alice, who was already having a headache because of Narcida's targeting, became even more troubled when she saw Su Feng standing behind Narcida with Narcida's support. If Narcida, as the incarnation of the World Tree, was a troublesome god, then Su Feng, who clearly had a powerful figure behind him and was also quite strong, was even more unapproachable.

Even Alice, who held special privileges, didn't want to offend these two at this moment. Otherwise, if she were chased out of Sumeru in a sorry state, she would probably be ridiculed by the other members of the Witch Guild for hundreds of years.

“Witch Alice... Sumeru is very unstable right now. As the deity of Sumeru, I will not accept any unstable factors that may threaten Sumeru, especially since you are here.”

“I know you guard the borders of Teyvat and make a great contribution to the world, but now you're here…”

Narcida didn't finish her sentence, but Alice understood perfectly well what Narcida meant by what she hadn't said—in the end, it was because Alice had caused too much trouble in the kingdoms before. Even though she knew that Alice wasn't Teyvat's enemy and had even helped resolve some potential threats on many occasions, an unstable factor was still an unstable factor.

This can only be described as a backlash from past sins.

"Alright, alright, how about I tell my old friend about my plans and then leave?"

Having been clearly disliked, Alice glanced at Nasita, who was unwilling to compromise, and Su Feng, who was standing behind her in full support, and decided to retreat for the time being. After all, this incarnation of the World Tree was like a bomb that would explode at the slightest touch.

To make matters worse, the other party has an even more troublesome backer, so she should probably avoid confrontation for now!

Of course, if she doesn't come over and do some 'renovation' for Sumeru after this incident, then she wouldn't be Witch A!

Since the Crimson King's Tomb is no longer of any use, and those powerful treasures will likely be completely destroyed after this, we might as well...

Let's make these as a gift for little Keli!

Of course, this was after Sumeru had survived this disaster.

In short, under Nasita's pressure, Alice hurriedly communicated with the bottle in her hand and then decisively teleported away from Sumeru. After confirming that Alice had left, Nasita breathed a sigh of relief.

This rather dangerous witch has finally left.

Then she casually glanced at the bottle in front of her...

"Honorable deity, is there anything you require of me?"

Upon noticing Nasita's gaze, the bottle in front of her trembled slightly, and then a tiny pure water sprite slowly emerged from the bottle's opening.

Chapter Seventeen: The Concealment of Pure Water

Idia felt quite unlucky—it all started when the landlord just wanted to bring his daughter over for a visit.

This is actually nothing, since she doesn't have much to do while she's inside the bottle.

In fact, she has been doing similar things from the past until now; she is just entertaining the landlord's daughter and her friends more often now.

Nothing at all.

But Idia never expected that her landlord would encounter an even bigger landlord—as the god of Sumeru, everything in Sumeru theoretically belongs to Nasita, so it is not wrong to say that Nasita is the bigger landlord.

Of course, encountering only the Grass God wouldn't be a problem, since the relationship between the seven gods isn't too bad.

Although the current water goddess is an anomaly among the seven gods, she is the current water goddess Funina. What does she have to do with Egolia, the goddess who was once a pure water spirit?

She's already escaped Fontainebleau, so there's no way she could be held responsible for Funina's situation.

However... if the Grass God's side can be fooled, then the noble being standing behind the Grass God, the one that even Alice had to temporarily yield to, is someone that cannot be ignored.

The surging, powerful light force that could be sensed even with just a glance, the purest soul and consciousness, and the powerful and clean pure water tightly wrapped around his body—all these things testify to his nobility and power.

Is it good or bad luck for her to meet someone like this?

Thinking of this, Idia couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

"A pure water spirit... but much weaker than I imagined... and are you really a pure water spirit? I've never seen a pure water spirit like Zhenling, kept in a bottle."

"In that case, how would you integrate and expand the pure water?"

Su Feng frowned when he saw Idia swimming out of the bottle.

Because this pure water spirit seems really unreliable—you know, pure water spirits are creations of the heavens, and these beings that pursue love and pure water have their own unique mission and responsibility.

The pursuit of more love and dreams is the instinct of pure water, and connecting with all life and soul in Teyvat by following the flow of water is the deepest instinct etched into the hearts of all pure water spirits.

But it's clear that all of this isn't so easy to do inside a bottle.

“My esteemed sir, although I am inside this bottle, thanks to Lady Alice’s help, the ‘magic bottle that can grant any dream’ is still quite famous, so people always come looking for me.”

"That way, I can still collect dreams and love..."

Although she was defending herself, Idia still spoke very cautiously, constantly observing Su Feng's expression. It seemed as if she would change her mind on the spot if Su Feng showed even the slightest dissatisfaction.

"You're really interesting... much more interesting than the average pure water sprite."

Seeing Idia's appearance, Su Feng couldn't help but chuckle. Idia didn't seem like the pure water sprite known for her stubbornness and indifference at all.

She didn't even act like a pure water sprite chasing after pure water.

It's important to know that even a powerful pure water spirit like Lothia would fawn over and obey Su Feng. The suppression from a higher level and the endless pursuit of pure water and love make any pure water spirit powerless against Su Feng.

But unlike Lotia, Idia didn't act like that. Instead, she seemed extremely cautious and careful, as if she had seen some ferocious beast that might devour her alive at any moment.

That's truly amazing.
