Genshin Impact, but the chat group

"Hello, traveler from afar, welcome to Narukami Taisha Shrine."

Li Yue's clothes were from Liyue, and she had never seen Li Yue's face before, so it must be her first time here. So she began to introduce her.

"If you have any worries or wishes, you can come here to draw a fortune stick, and the Thor will bless you."

"Drawing a fortune stick, may Thor protect me?"

Li Yue looked at the witch in front of her with a strange expression.

"Yes, Inatsume, who has been coming to Narukami Shrine to draw a fortune stick and receive the blessing of the Raijin (Thunder God), you must be a traveler from a foreign land. If you sincerely believe in Lord Raijin, you will surely receive his blessing."

"That's it..."

Li Yue touched her chin.

"Shall I go in and take a look?"

"Please come in; the place to draw lots is at the back."

The shrine maiden politely guided Li Yue.

Following the shaman's directions, Li Yue bypassed the main hall and arrived at the courtyard behind it.

Li Yue's footsteps caught the attention of Yae no Miko. She looked up at Li Yue, glanced at him, and then froze.

What's going on? Isn't this Liyue's new Geo Archon? What's he doing in Inazuma? And here at that!

Although Inazuma closed itself off from the world, news from the outside still managed to get in. In particular, Liyue sent a letter of state to Inazuma, which was probably lucky enough to get through, since not all ships were destroyed despite the thunderstorms.

"Hey, you over there, shrine maiden, where do you draw a fortune slip here?"

Li Yue also saw Yae no Miko and directly questioned her, treating her like an ordinary shrine maiden.

Yae snapped out of her daze and looked at Li Yue with a hint of surprise, followed by understanding.

Oh, this is the successor chosen by the Rock King. Because he's so young, he doesn't recognize me. Hmm, the new Rock King doesn't recognize me and even mistakes me for an ordinary priestess. How interesting! Young god, let me play with you for a bit.

"If you would like to sign, please follow me."

Yae no Miko also cooperated, leading Li Yue to the place for drawing lots, and even personally helped Li Yue shake a lot. Holding the bamboo stick, Yae no Miko had a look of surprise on her face.

"Oh my, what great luck you are, guest! It's an extremely auspicious sign! Very few people get such a lucky sign, it means your fortune is very good today."

"Your luck is very good?"

Li Yue pinched her chin, showing no sign of happiness; instead, she frowned.

"What's wrong, guest? This is a very auspicious sign!"

Yae no Miko looked at Li Yue with curiosity.

"Actually, I came to Inazuma for some reason, but after arriving in Inazuma, I kept hearing some strange sounds, and it seemed like a woman was talking."

"Oh?"

"I followed the sound all the way here, but the sound stopped when I got here."

"Is a woman speaking?"

Yae no Miko was also puzzled. The new Rock King had arrived in Inazuma, but as soon as he landed, he heard strange noises. Moreover, the noises seemed to be coming from Narukami Taisha. What was going on? She hadn't noticed anything strange at all.

"Miko, is there anything special in this shrine? Like... something really special!"

Li Yue frowned and asked the divine child.

"If we're talking about something special, and really special, it's probably just that divine cherry tree."

The divine child looked at the divine cherry tree.

Li Yue followed the divine child's gaze toward the divine cherry tree. Filled with curiosity, he walked toward the tree, with the divine child close behind. Li Yue reached the tree and looked up at it.

"Guest, is there something wrong with this tree?"

The divine child noticed Li Yue's expression and asked curiously.

"This tree reminds me of another tree I saw before."

"Another tree?"

"Yes, two months ago, I also unexpectedly saw a magical tree, and a woman was constantly talking inside it. I rescued that woman from the tree, this one in front of us..."

"Rescue the woman from the tree?"

The divine child was full of questions. What was going on? And why would a woman go into a tree? Also, Li Yue said that this tree looked a lot like that tree. Could it be that there was a woman inside this tree too?

While the divine child was puzzled, Li Yue suddenly reached out and touched the divine cherry tree.

"Hey, no..."

Before the divine child could finish speaking, Li Yue's right hand had already touched the divine cherry tree. A burst of light shone, and then Li Yue suddenly collapsed to the ground.

The fox was completely dumbfounded when it saw Li Yue suddenly collapse.

The new Geo Archon of Liyue suddenly collapsed on his own territory for unknown reasons. If the people of Liyue find out, will they immediately start a war against Inazuma?

The divine child has already considered the reason for war: the Geo Archon of Liyue was betrayed by Inazuma! We must seek justice for the Geo Archon!

149. Raiden Shin: Morax, you're dead too?

In the courtyard of Narukami Shrine, Yae no Miko, who usually seemed to have everything under control, was unusually flustered, pacing back and forth in front of the guest room of Narukami Shrine.

"Lord Gongsi, what's wrong with you?"

The other shrine maidens at Narukami Shrine saw Yae no Miko walking back and forth and curiously came up to ask her questions. To their inquiries, Miko simply smiled and waved her hand.

"It's nothing, I was just thinking about some things. You guys go do your thing."

"Yes."

The shrine maidens responded, while Yae no Miko stood with her arms crossed at the door of the guest room, her head slightly bowed and her brows furrowed as she looked at the guest room and couldn't help but sigh.

What is this called.

The new Rock King of Liyue inexplicably arrived in Inatsume and heard a strange woman's voice. Following the voice, he arrived at Narukami Shrine and fell unconscious after touching the Divine Cherry Tree. He even fainted in front of Yae no Kami. If this got out, it would become irrefutable evidence that the people of Inatsume had harmed the Rock King, potentially triggering a conflict between the two countries!

All she can do now is try to cover this up as much as possible and then find a way to awaken the new Rock King.

However, she had just checked on Yan Wang's body in the guest room and found nothing wrong. He was breathing normally and was in good health, but he just hadn't woken up.

She considered asking for help, but this involved matters concerning the gods. The only person Inazuma could help her with was probably that guy inside the castle tower. The problem was, that guy was hiding in his own sacred ground and refused to come out.

There's no other way; I can only rely on myself, a fox, now.

After sighing, the priestess looked up at the huge cherry blossom tree behind the courtyard. She knew about the cherry blossom tree's abilities; it could absorb Inazuma's filth and needed to be purified regularly. Usually, Yae and her priestesses would purify the cherry blossom tree, but not long ago, when she was performing divination, she discovered that the cherry blossom tree would be purified without their intervention. So this time, she didn't do anything and wanted to see who would purify the cherry blossom tree.

Unexpectedly, instead of purification, the new Rock King fell into a coma after touching the Divine Cherry Tree.

"A woman's voice..."

Looking at the sacred cherry tree, Yae recalled what Li Yue had said before. The woman's voice had guided him to Narukami Shrine, but he heard it again inside the shrine. He had also encountered a magical tree in another place before, and even rescued a woman from it.

"Could there really be a woman inside the Divine Cherry Tree?"

Filled with doubt, the Divine Child arrived in front of the Divine Cherry Tree. To be honest, she had touched the Divine Cherry Tree before, but now, she was really a little hesitant to touch it. The new Rock King had already fainted from exhaustion, what if she fainted as well if she touched it?

In the end, curiosity led the fox to reach out and touch it, but nothing happened.

"What exactly is going on?"

With her left hand touching the trunk of the Divine Cherry Tree, Yae no Miko's eyebrows furrowed into a knot.

While the goddess was filled with questions, Li Yue was busy in the guest room.

Under the azure sky, on the still gray-white floating island, Li Yue received a warm welcome as soon as she entered the inner world.

"Hey kid, it's been a while since you've been here."

Enma immediately patted Liyue on the shoulder and greeted her warmly.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

The demons all gathered around and greeted Li Yue. Morax, clad in divine armor, stood in the very center, while the Great Tree King and Andrius stood on either side behind him.

"It's been a long time, everyone, especially the Emperor."

Li Yue greeted them politely.

"The reason I haven't been able to come in for so long is because of the Emperor."

"because I?"

Morax crossed his arms.

"Is it because of my faked death? You spent a lot of time dealing with the aftermath, didn't you?"

"Well, handling the aftermath didn't take much time; it was the aftermath that took more time."

Li Yue looked at Morax with a resentful expression.

"Oh? What do you say?"

Morax was somewhat curious.

"Your consciousness here asked me for help, but your physical body outside suddenly had the immortals recommend me to be the new Geo Archon. Now, thanks to the immortals' recommendation, I have become the new Geo Archon of Liyue. You can imagine how busy I am."

"Ok?"

Morax looked at Li Yue with some surprise. His original body had actually chosen Li Yue to be the Rock King? He hadn't thought of this when he transferred his consciousness into Li Yue's body.

However, since it was made by the original entity, there shouldn't be any problems.

"My original body did this for a reason. In his eyes, you are the most suitable person to inherit his position and the most suitable person to be the Rock King."

"Alright, Your Majesty, since you've said so, what else can I do?"

Li Yue shrugged.

"But I don't think I'm good at this kind of thing, so I asked my friend Zhongli to be my deputy and serve as the Grand Governor of Liyue. He'll be responsible for supervising all the big and small things in Liyue every day. Zhongli is capable. I might have to worry about having someone else help me, but I trust him to get things done!"

???

Morax leaned back as he listened to Li Yue's words. Good heavens, his true form had dug a huge hole for him.

Originally, she was supposed to retire, but now she's working all year round. On the contrary, her separated consciousness is able to live a leisurely life in Li Yue's inner world, chatting with the Great Tree King and Andrius, with the quirky Yama-no-Kami girl by her side. It's truly a carefree and comfortable life.

Don't worry, I'll enjoy the retirement you're going to have too.
