Genshin Impact, Raiden Shin joins the chat group

"I knew you'd be drinking tea here. Come on! We've got work to do!!! It's not easy!! Even the Immortal Summoning Ceremony has had work to do these past few days."

Hu Tao seemed somewhat excited, after all, the business of the Rebirth Hall had plummeted in the past few days since the invocation of immortals ceremony.

The reason remains the same as in previous years: before the ritual to invite the immortals ends, the elderly are unwilling to pass away and wish to see Lord Yan one last time.

After seeing Lord Yan one last time, they can pass away peacefully.

So, before the ritual to invite the immortals was over, the elderly people were unwilling to pass away, which made Hu Tao quite unhappy, because birth, aging, sickness and death are the natural order of things.

As a result of the ritual of inviting immortals, these elderly people held on to their last breath, even though they were tormented by illness, they were unwilling to pass away like this.

It is important to know that even the old master Yan once said that the cycle of life and death is the normal state of human beings, and being too obsessed with it goes against the principles of Yin and Yang.

Hu Tao could understand the elderly people's desire to see Prince Yan one last time, but it didn't have to be this extreme!

Who said that if I die these days, I won't be able to see Lord Rock again? Can't I still see him in his ghost form?

To my utter surprise, a job came today!!! The goal is quite far, but Wang Sheng Tang is determined to fulfill its mission!!!

"Master Hu..." Upon seeing Hu Tao arrive, Zhong Li suddenly felt a headache coming on.

"Hey! Su Hao, you're here too." At this moment, Hu Tao also saw Su Hao and the others. She asked with some surprise, "Who are these people?"

Looking at Wendy, Raiden Shin, Raiden Movie, Great Tree King, and Nasita, Hu Tao seemed a little puzzled. Who were these guys? Were they friends of Su Hao or Zhong Li?

How come I've never seen this before?

“These are my friends,” Zhong Li explained directly. He seemed to not want Hu Tao to meet these people, and he said very proactively, “Any business? Let’s set off now.”

With that, Zhongli quickly left, and at the same time, he also dispelled the barrier.

"Oh, oh, oh!! Yes, yes, yes!! The customer is the most important!!! Respect for the deceased is paramount!!"

Hu Tao also realized what was happening. She waved to the group of strangers and said, "After the Immortal Invitation Ceremony ends in a few days, let's have a meal together sometime. I have something to attend to with the guest elder now, so I'll be leaving now!"

With that, Hu Tao, carrying the protective charm, left with Zhong Li.

Chapter 415 Klee Meets Yoomiya

Let's have dinner together sometime!

After leaving those words, Hu Tao departed with Zhong Li.

Whether it was Su Hao's imagination or not, upon hearing these words, Zhong Li quickened his pace, seemingly intending to leave this place as quickly as possible.

It really comes in a hurry and goes in a hurry.

This amused Su Hao; Hu Tao's words were truly hilarious.

"That must be Master Hu of the Rebirth Hall."

Raiden Shin stretched out her hand and set up another barrier. She chuckled and said, "Just like what they said in the group, she really has a fiery personality."

"Yes, very enthusiastic." Lei Yingdian looked in the direction Hu Tao had left, blinked, and slowly said, "Although she's not in the group, there's still a lot of news about her."

Nasida nodded slightly. Although Hu Tao wasn't in the chat group, she was mentioned quite often by the people in the chat group.

For example, Su Hao, Abedo, Keli, Zhongli, Keqing, Kuki Shinobu, Kokoro, Ying, Paimon, and Yae no Miko have all mentioned her, or rather, anyone who has met her.

Everyone would mention Hu Tao; she truly possessed a certain charm that made people unable to resist bringing up her various characteristics.

When Su Hao mentioned her, he said that this head of the Hall of Rebirth had a very good personality, was very warm towards others, and even more so towards the dead.

Abedo, on the other hand, felt helpless about Kurumi's personality, because in his eyes, Kurumi was just a slightly older version of Klee.

Klee directly calls Kurumi a saint, and she can't change that.

Zhongli was completely helpless against Hu Tao, but it was truly laughable that the mighty King Yan was powerless against a little girl.

Everyone initially thought it was fake, but after they actually witnessed Hu Tao and Zhong Li's interactions...

Yes, there's no need to doubt it, this isn't fake.

The thing that Kuki Shinobu and Shinkai talked about most about Hu Tao was that this Master Hu was warm and hospitable and treated his friends very well.

Ying, Paimon, and Yae no Miko were there because of Kurumi's cooking... well, her cooking was indeed a bit terrifying.

"Oh dear, if I weren't afraid of the old man getting angry, I'd like to follow them and see what's going on." Wendy chuckled. He had an idea: to secretly follow them and see how Hu Tao and Zhong Li interacted.

I'm sure that would be really interesting, at least much more interesting than his plan to perform in Liyue Harbor.

"She'll get beaten up," the Great Tree King said cheerfully, having no doubt that Wendy would do such a thing.

Similarly, the Great Tree King thought that Morax might get annoyed by being watched and might actually beat up Wendy.

"Oh well~ never mind~ never mind~ I'm going to perform now~" Wendy shrugged, preparing to leave as he had an event that evening, and it was getting late, so he should hurry up and earn some Mora.

With that, Wendy vanished in a gust of wind, disappearing from sight.

“Then we’ll be going now.” The Great Compassion Tree King smiled and looked at Su Hao, Lei Dianzhen, and Lei Yingdian, saying, “We’ll come back after we’ve finished dealing with the Sumeru matter.”

Raiden Shin nodded with a smile. She knew how big the mess was right now, and she was also grateful that Inazuma had Yae no Miko, because of her.

After the reforms, Inazuma's economy recovered rapidly, and the gods no longer needed to be stationed in Inazuma all the time, so they could relax and have some fun.

“Then let’s go.” The Great Tree King looked at Naxida and said softly, “It’s time to go back to work.”

Although Nasita was somewhat reluctant, she still took out the teleportation staff and took the Great Tree King back to Sumeru.

"It's so miserable."

After Nasita and the Great Tree King left, Lei Yingdian sincerely said, then she stuffed another piece of pastry into her mouth, feeling that Nasita was really too pitiful.

With so many things to deal with, Lei Yingdian felt overwhelmed just hearing about some of them; thankfully, she didn't have to deal with any of them.

With Shin and the Divine Child around, and the three head of the three families gradually recovering, she doesn't need to worry about these troublesome matters.

"There's nothing we can do about it; Sumeru's situation is too unique," Raiden sighed, then decided not to say anything more.

It's best to avoid discussing matters of other countries, and besides, the food on the table isn't finished yet, so Raiden decided to stay here a little longer.

Anyway, the Fools were paying for this meal, so Raiden didn't feel any pressure eating it.

Besides, what's wrong with her, the God of Thunder, enjoying the treatment she usually receives as the God of Geo?

"Su Hao, what do you think of Morax's actions?"

Raiden Shinya picked up a dessert and started eating. She actually liked desserts, but not as much as Kage.

She enjoys savoring each bite, appreciating the flavors. Although demons don't gain weight, she still consciously controls her eating.

"What do I think?" Su Hao saw that Lei Dianzhen and Lei Yingdian did not intend to leave, so he sat here as well. He just did not expect that Zhen would ask this question.

This surprised him somewhat, but Su Hao quickly added, "Actually, in my opinion, he has arranged much more than I expected."

"And, I have a few personal thoughts..."

Su Hao slowly began to express his views.

Yes, Zhongli's arrangements were more extensive than Su Hao had imagined; they were far more detailed than what was depicted in the plot.

The character of Zhongli in the storyline is actually rather poorly constructed.

In exchange for the Heart of God, they made a deal with the Fools to allow them to break the seal on the Demon God and summon the Whirlpool Demon God.

He faked his own death, causing chaos among the Liyue Seven Stars. Later, after discovering that the Traveler and Paimon, two "accidental" individuals, had entered the game, he quietly joined them and traveled with them.

Knowing that they wouldn't change the plan, and might even be beneficial to it, he simply stopped caring.

The situation is different now; there are too many unstable factors in Liyue.

Or rather, the only demonic forces that Liyue Light currently possesses are Zhongli, Ruoduo Dragon King, and Guizhong.

The other immortals are no less formidable. As beings who have emerged from the war between demons and gods, they can even unite to kill weaker demons.

Simply put, Liyue is currently too powerful, so Zhongli has no choice but to devise a plan to weaken his own side.

Through today's conversation, Su Hao has realized that Zhong Li has already made arrangements for all the unstable factors.

Besides the vortex demon god Oser, Zhongli plans to release a second demon god-level warrior, Baqiu.

What's even more intriguing is that both Orse and the Eight Dragons are beings that fight in the sea, while the Dragon King Ruotu is a king on land.

Although Su Hao knew that neither Osael nor Baqiu, who had just broken their seals, could possibly be as strong as the Ruotu Dragon King, the question was, would these two be foolish enough to rush onto land and fight the Ruotu Dragon King head-on?

Obviously not. Unless those two have lost their minds, they wouldn't do that.

However, if they were in the sea, Oser and Baqiu, with their home advantage, would definitely be able to hold Ruoduo back for a while. Ruoduo would be defeated, but not so quickly.

What will happen then remains to be seen.

With the addition of the Ruo Tuo machine created by Gui Zhong, and the participation of other immortals, it was only a matter of time before they suppressed Ausel and the Eight Dragons.

Zhongli simply wanted to see how humans from both the human and immortal eras would play a role in this battle.

And after witnessing such a terrifying battle, will humanity still be like the group of humans who followed the Rock King and the immortals thousands of years ago, raising their weapons to fight against the demon gods?

This is why Zhongli told Su Hao that if things came to an end, he hoped Su Hao would step in to seal Ausel and the Eight Dragons, sealing the demon god as a human.

Having survived this catastrophe, Liyue will be reborn, radiating unimaginable vitality once again.

“Hmm.” Raiden nodded, looking at Su Hao with admiration, and couldn’t help but sigh, “Sometimes, I wonder if you’re a monster.”

"He is still so young, yet he can think about so many things."

Yes, Raiden had guessed what Su Hao had just said. Not only her, but also the Great Tree King and Wendy could clearly see it.

Zhongli orchestrated this scheme to ensure that Liyue would fully enter the era of humans and immortals, or more accurately, the era of humans.

After losing the Rock King, humanity has lost its protective umbrella and should now consider how to protect its home.

A sudden disaster can make people temporarily forget their grief and pick up their weapons again to face the disaster.

After the disaster is over, people will definitely grow and will not lose their composure in the face of the deceased.

To be honest, Lei Dian really admired Zhong Li's move. She even wondered why he chose to seal these guys away during the Demon God War.

Did they anticipate this day and that's why they sealed them away? If so... that's incredibly powerful.

"Su Hao is a genius."

Lei interjected midway through the movie, saying that she had always thought Su Hao was Inazuma's treasure, since he was so young yet had reached the realm of demon gods and understood so many things.

Sometimes, Lei Yingdian couldn't help but fall into self-doubt, because Su Hao, who had only lived for a little over ten years, understood more than she, the God of Thunder, did.

Doesn't this make her seem a little too dull?
