Genshin Impact: Starting Guide - End of the World Qi Bao

"Oh~ so this is what they mean by one thing subduing another?"

Seeing this, Liu Yun chuckled and spoke up.

"Young friend Jue Xi, you are truly skilled! You really are a master of disguise."

Jue Xi then took Kiana's hand and said to Liu Yun Zhenjun.

"I am just a mortal, but True Lord, don't forget the three conditions you promised me."

Chapter 79 Has the dust settled?

Liu Yun was stunned for a moment, then realized what was happening and spoke up.

"Ah? Cough cough, let me tell you about Gan Yu when she was little. Gan Yu was chubby when she was little..."

"True Lord!"

Gan Yu interrupted her awkwardly, but Kiana seemed to have become interested.

"Miss Gan Yu doesn't look fat at all, and then what?"

Liu Yun glanced at Gan Yu.

"When there are fewer people in the future, Miss Kiana, you and Mr. Juexi can come to Jueyun Pavilion to find me, and we can chat slowly."

Paimon also breathed a sigh of relief.

"So... is this finally over?"

The immortal beside Him also replied.

"That extremely malevolent and ominous aura has indeed dissipated... It's hard to imagine that the 'Vortex Demon God' would just disappear like that..."

The immortal didn't say anything more, but looked at Juexi. Ningguang was also unsure how to deal with Juexi... but she still stepped forward and spoke.

"Many thanks to all the immortals and Senior Juexi for their great help. If it weren't for your presence, the future of Liyue Harbor would be unpredictable..."

Liu Yun was already unhappy about losing the bet, and coupled with his disappointment with the Seven Stars, he also started to tease them.

"Hmph, why bother with flattery? Besides, it's not an exaggeration to say that all the credit for this battle belongs to this Jue Xi. We didn't 'happen' to be here. Tian Quan, have you already pretended to have forgotten our purpose?"

After spending too much time with Paimon and Juexi, he's become even more prone to making sarcastic remarks.

"Is True Lord Liuyun Borrowing Wind throwing a tantrum because he lost a bet?"

"How could I, an immortal, be so narrow-minded?"

Jue Xi felt extremely troubled. She had been instantly defeated by Osael, and Ning Guang hadn't smashed the Jade Pavilion. How could the immortals accept her now?

Jue Xi said.

“True Lord Liuyun, shouldn’t we give Seven Stars a chance? We, whom you call ‘mortals,’ have fragile bloodlines, but we are also strong. Wasn’t it us who defeated Ausel?”

"Hmph, Jue Xi, you cannot be called a mortal. You possess that kind of power, where good and evil are separated in an instant, and you can make a decision that could change the world in a single thought."

"But over the years, Liyue's problems, big and small, have not always required the power of immortals to be solved. For example, the main reason I took action was because I made some deals with Ningguang of Tianquan. The 'contract between the gods and Liyue' has been in place for over a thousand years, and now it is the era of 'contract between Liyue and humans'."

Ningguang listened to Juexi's words and pondered. Since she had received his help today, she might have to grant him some favors in the future. However, it seemed that Juexi was still loyal to Liyue, so giving up some benefits was not out of the question, of course, it was to him, not to the Fools...

Liu Yun snorted coldly.

"Hmph, I can't win an argument with you, and it's not like I was the one who started this... coming to Liyue Harbor to demand an explanation..."

Paimon was puzzled.

"Something seems off about the immortals."

Xiao glanced at Jue Xi.

"Let's go back."

After saying this, Xiao left Liyue Harbor, leaving the bewildered immortals behind. Liu Yun followed closely behind, and Jue Xi quickly spoke up when she saw Liu Yun leaving.

“True Lord Liuyun, my first request is that you don’t forget to send your beloved disciple down the mountain for training. Otherwise, if he stays on the mountain for too long, he will end up like you, ‘very good at chatting.’”

"Hmph, it would be better if you were like me, I know."

After Liu Yun agreed, he hurriedly left, and then the other immortals also left Liyue Harbor. Ningguang then walked up.

"What does Mr. Juexi want when he spoke up for me just now?"

"Huh? Oh, do you know what I wanted by joining the Fatui?"

Jue Xi realized that Ning Guang was coming to repay her favor, and asked a question in a pretentious manner.

Ningguang gave Kiana a mischievous grin.

"Do I really want to tell you what Mr. Juexi is after?"

Jue Xi didn't react for a moment, but Kiana suddenly sensed something was wrong and spoke up.

"Miss Ningguang, please just say it."

“Lady Rosalyn…”

……

Kiana's hand had already reached for Juexi's waist and twisted it into a pretzel... Juexi thought to herself, "Ningguang, you are so ungrateful!" Then she said in a slightly trembling voice.

"Miss Ningguang is quite the joker, haha. We can talk about this later. I have other matters to attend to today, so I'll take my leave now."

Juexi couldn't bear it anymore and pinched me, so she grabbed Kiana's hand that was pinching her with one hand, grabbed Kiana's arm with the other hand, and kissed her on the lips.

"Well……"

Ningguang, being sensible, turned around and slowly left. Business can be discussed anytime, but not now.

Yingmei blushed slightly, wondering why Kiana wasn't resisting... She seemed quite comfortable... Little Paimon looked like he had learned something amazing.

Several minutes passed before Kiana felt her body go limp and collapsed into the captain's arms like a lump of mud.

Kiana thought to herself, "How can this idiot captain be so good at bullying girls? Luckily Mei isn't here, or she would have fallen victim to his cruelty. This kind of thing... I can handle it myself." Thinking this, Kiana slumped into the captain's arms without resisting, feeling his presence.

Jue Xi has such an arrogant and conceited attitude. Little Qi Bao is nothing special.

"Um... Mr. Zhongli is really the Geo Archon, right?"

Yingmei slowly asked Juexi.

"We can just check with Zhongli about this. Yingmei, look at Kiana's condition, let's go and rest first."

rest?

Kiana and Ying both blushed slightly upon hearing this.

"I'm going to the Hall of Rebirth to find Zhongli."

Yingmei left immediately after saying goodbye, and Juexi could still vaguely hear Paimon asking, "Why is your face red too, Traveler?"

Kiana, standing beside her, said this.

"Captain, shall we go home?"

"No return."

"Let's go to the Northern Bank to take care of one last thing."

……

Chapter 80: Winter

D'Artagnan looked aggrieved and asked Rosalyn.

"You actually call this a collaboration? You should have just told me directly."

The lady replied to the young master with a blank expression.

“I’ve already told you, but you don’t believe me, so why blame me?”

"Rosalyn, you should have shown it to me earlier."

"Hehe... Don't be like that, 'Young Master'. Didn't you also cause a scene? Wait, it seems like an acquaintance has arrived. Let me see... Oh, it's Juexi who beat 'Young Master' to a pulp."

Hearing the "lady's" sarcastic tone, Juexi remained silent, while Kiana tugged at Captain Juexi's hand, as if seeking some kind of consent. Juexi nodded, and Kiana went straight to Rosalyn's side, hugged her arm, and rubbed against her.

"Tsk."

Rosalind clicked her tongue slightly but didn't say anything. Jue Xi was watching her, and if she expressed any dissatisfaction, she might get beaten.

Zhongli also spoke up.

"Alright, I presume you have obtained what you desired. Mr. Juexi, thank you for your help to Liyue. If there is nothing else, I will not disturb you any longer and will return to the Hall of Rebirth, where there are probably still people waiting for me."

Jue Xi immediately said.

"Mr. Zhongli, please take care. If Liyue needs my help, I will definitely do my best."

Zhongli heard what he wanted to hear, smiled slightly, replied with a thank you, and left the Northern Bank. With Juexi's words, he could relax and slack off, after all, he was quite satisfied with Seven Stars.

After watching Zhongli leave, Juexi got down to business.

"When can I join the Fatui?"

"That's what the lady said."

"Are you free now?"

Jue Xi didn't even think about it.

"It's inconvenient. I have something important to discuss with Qibao later."

Kiana was speechless when she heard the captain talking nonsense, but she didn't complain; she just thought to herself.

What important matter could you possibly have, you idiot captain? You're clearly just after me...

Rosalyn also delivered a scathing rebuke to Juexi with a single sentence.

"What? After the first time, you've become addicted to that kind of thing and can't stop?"

Even someone as thick-skinned as Jue Xi looked pale now; the "Young Master" was still there. Jue Xi glanced at Dadalia and realized he genuinely seemed oblivious to these matters—perhaps this was a sign of high emotional intelligence. But Rosalind's mouth...it was truly indescribable. No wonder she had such a bad relationship with the other executors of the Fools.

Kiana, standing next to Rosalyn, was even more embarrassed. She naturally understood what Rosalyn meant. She wasn't that resistant to that kind of thing... after all, those who know, know... she was just a little shy. Now that Rosalyn had said this, it made her seem like a bad girl.

The lady wanted to laugh when she saw Juexi's unusual expression, but when she looked at Kiana beside her, who looked at her with a disappointed expression, she couldn't laugh. She thought to herself, "Kiana, you're so useless, you actually gave it to me?" So she got serious and started talking about business.

"I'm leaving Liyue now, Juexi. Will you come back to Winter with me? The 'Queen' is eager to see you. Or will you choose to travel with this 'battle maniac'?"

"Hey, Rosalyn, don't talk to me like that. Want to fight?"
