I'm in Teyvat, join the chat group.

"It's in the first room on the second floor."

Without any hesitation, just like he had done with Eriri before, Li Xiao carried Sayuri and headed towards her room.

I won over Sayuri and Eriri today, it was a great success!

In addition to the Yukinoshita family bucket, he also collected the Sawamura family bucket.

Upon arriving at the room, Li Xiao and Xiao Baihe immediately began exercising.

However, after the warm-up and getting down to business, something unexpected happened to Li Xiao.

Little Lily actually bled during her workout!

Li Xiao asked with some surprise, "Is this your first time exercising?"

Sayuri nodded shyly and admitted, "Yes, Eriri is my sister and brother-in-law's child. I have been raising her since they passed away."

I've kept this from Eriri all along; I consider her my own daughter.

(The above content has been adapted to avoid censorship; please interpret it as you see fit.)

"You must have had a really tough time all these years."

Li Xiao lovingly stroked her face and brushed away the hair that was stuck to her cheeks with sweat.

Lily placed her hand on the back of his hand and shook her head at him.

"I'm fine, you can continue."

The feeling of having to stop halfway through her workout made her feel a little uncomfortable.

At this moment, just like Eriri, she finally understood how the heroines in those doujinshi felt when faced with such a situation.

Especially since Eriri was just one room away from here, and she was doing this with her boyfriend, Sayuri felt a mix of guilt and excitement.

This feeling didn't make her feel scared or hesitant; on the contrary, it made her somewhat unable to resist.

As the saying goes, "Thirty is like a wolf, forty is like a tiger," and even though it was only Sayuri's first time exercising, she performed much better than Eriri.

While Li Xiao and her boyfriend were busy on one side, Eriri on the other side had no idea what her mother and boyfriend were doing.

She was drooling, a slight smile on her face, as if she were having a sweet dream...

Main Text: Chapter 179 Returning to Liyue

Eriri woke up in bed the next morning.

"I'm so hungry..."

She rubbed her slightly empty stomach. She usually wouldn't wake up at this time; today she was simply woken up by hunger.

Even though I ate a lot of the protein liquid that Li Xiao gave me yesterday, it didn't keep me full at all; it only made me feel very full at the time.

She got up, grabbed her clothes, and prepared to go to the bathroom to wash off the sticky sweat before going to the kitchen to see if there was anything to eat.

Since the bathroom was on the first floor, and she happened to be passing by the kitchen, she glanced at it. She immediately noticed something was wrong.

Why does the kitchen door seem to be shaking? She didn't feel any earthquake.

And it seems like Mom doesn't close the kitchen door when she's not cooking, right?

She approached, a little puzzled, and placed her hand on it to feel the vibration.

Surprisingly, the vibrations were quite regular, and the frequency had a strange sense of familiarity to her.

"Mom, is that you in there?"

Since she didn't hear any noise, she didn't think much of it and assumed that Xiaobaihe was doing something inside.

Meanwhile, inside the door, Sayuri, who was lying on the door enduring the blows from the arm wand, suddenly heard Eriri's voice and was so frightened that her whole body tensed up.

But she couldn't care less about that now. She patted Li Xiao's hand, which was holding her waist, and hurriedly said, "Stop! Eriri is here!"

Li Xiao continued working, leaning close to her ear and whispering, "Don't worry, she can't hear us. Just talk to her normally and get rid of her."

He had already created a wind barrier, so that only the sounds he had filtered could be heard.

Knowing this man wouldn't let such an opportunity pass, Sayuri decisively chose to comply, trying to maintain her usual tone as she spoke to Eriri outside the door:

"I... um, I'm making breakfast. You go to the dining room first, haha~ wait over there for a bit."

"Mom? What's wrong with you?"

Eriri felt something was off about the voice, but the hunger in her stomach and the grogginess from waking up early prevented her from thinking too much about it. She simply asked a question out of concern.

Xiaobaihe clenched her fists, trying to calm her trembling voice.

"I'm fine, I just choked a little."

"Ha~ Okay then~ I'm going to take a shower now."

Eriri yawned and went into the bathroom.

Hearing Eriri's footsteps as she left, Sayuri breathed a sigh of relief, then glanced at Li Xiao behind her with a hint of resentment.

"You're just playing tricks on me."

Li Xiao leaned down and kissed her. "But don't you think this is exciting?"

"It seems... to be quite exciting."

To be honest, although I feel very sorry for Eriri, Sayuri actually quite likes this kind of game.

After Eriri finished showering, the two who had been in the kitchen were now dressed and sitting in the dining room, with breakfast laid out on the table.

Of course, Li Xiao bought breakfast from outside. He and Xiao Baihe simply didn't have time after they finished.

Seeing Li Xiao, Eriri was a little surprised: "Eh? Li Xiao, are you still here?"

When Yingli woke up and didn't see Li Xiao, she thought he had left.

Li Xiao looked a little sad: "What do you mean? Eriri, are you not welcoming me anymore? You were calling me when we were having fun together yesterday..."

Before he could even utter those two words, Eriri pounced on him and covered his mouth.

"Shut up, you!"

She was really afraid that Li Xiao would tell her mother. It was fine to play around with this kind of thing in private, but if her mother found out, she would be finished.

Li Xiao removed her hand, hugged her, and sat down next to her.

"Alright, it's time for breakfast."

"Humph~"

After letting out a soft hum, Eriri obediently began to eat her breakfast.

Li Xiao didn't know what to say. He had clearly taught her a lesson so harshly yesterday, but she was still so arrogant today.

Well, that's part of her charm. We can use that to our advantage in the future.

After finishing breakfast, Eriri finally remembered that she had gained superpowers and began practicing excitedly in the living room.

"Wow! Li Xiao, look! Aren't I amazing?"

Eriri used the wind to carry two pieces of paper, which flew around everywhere.

Li Xiao frankly said, "This level is far from enough."

"Tch~" Eriri didn't want to talk to him anymore, and looked at Sayuri smugly.

"Mom, aren't I amazing?"

Sayuri smiled and nodded, "Eriri is amazing."

Actually, she also has superpowers, but she hasn't tried them yet, and it's not the right time to show them off, otherwise Eriri would definitely know what happened between her and Li Xiao.

After playing for a while, Eriri remembered something and ran to Li Xiao's side.

"Li Xiao, do you have any way to give my mom superpowers too? Don't you dare mention that method!"

She was still thinking about her mother, but if that method was absolutely necessary, then she had no choice but to give up.

Xiaobaihe was touched by what she heard. But at the same time, her sense of guilt intensified.

Should she not have kept it from Eriri? She wondered to herself.

"Well..." Li Xiao pretended to think for a moment, "It's not possible now. I'll think of another way later."

“Alright then…” Eriri was a little disappointed.

"It's okay, there's no rush about superpowers, we can talk about it later," Xiaobaihe comforted her, then casually reminded her, "You should go to school now."

"Oh no! I'm going to be late!"

After glancing at the time, Eriri hurriedly got ready and left.

"Alright, I'm leaving now."

Li Xiao also said goodbye to Xiao Baihe.

It's time for him to return to Liyue; Zhongli's farewell ceremony should be ready soon.

Moreover, having obtained the resurrection ritual, he could use it to acquire some of the beautiful women he wanted to collect.

Seeing that he was about to leave, Xiaobaihe didn't try to stop him, but just kissed the corner of his lips with a little reluctance.

"Be careful out there, I'll be waiting for you at home."

"Don't worry! See you next time, Sayuri."

After saying that, Li Xiao summoned a portal and left.

After returning to Liyue, Li Xiao took a deep breath and then began searching for Zhongli's location.

He wanted to discuss with Zhong Li about being his resurrection skill's tank, and Li Xiao believed that Zhong Li would definitely not refuse.

"That's... Bu Bu Lu? So you're saying we're buying eternal incense now?"

Perfect timing, Li Xiao also wants to meet Qi Qi.

Who wouldn't love a cute, white-haired, white-stockinged little girl?

Without hesitation, Li Xiao flew directly towards Bubulu.

"Hey everyone!"
