Genshin Impact: Return of the Immortal Realm starts with being chased by Shadow

"Oh~ I didn't disturb you, did I?"

"Ah...no..."

"That's good, that's good, otherwise I will feel very guilty."

"..."

Even though he said this, there was no trace of guilt on Yae Shenzi's face.

This woman is not at a level they can deal with.

Yae Shenzi coughed twice, with a rare serious expression on his face.

This look didn't appear even when she was talking about how to deal with General Thunder, and she couldn't help but pay attention to it.

"I want to see you two for something."

"Is it about the special training against General Thunder?" Paimon asked.

"No, there is a more important and urgent matter to deal with than that."

"Something more important and urgent?"

"That's...about the demonic resentment in Lin Jinnian."

"The Demon God's Resentment?!"

Ying and Paimon were also very surprised. Why is the demon's resentment on Lin Jinnian?Can such a thing still be attached to its host?

When Lian Ying fell into the trap, she was only affected by the demon's resentment, and she was not entangled.

Yae Kamiko looked at the two people's serious expressions and explained to them.

The demon's resentment contains huge evil spirits, which will affect people's minds.

And when Lin Jinnian came back with Ying, Yae Shenzi saw the extremely heavy demonic resentment entrenched in him.

This level of demonic resentment would be difficult to gather unless it was in the ruins of the ancient demonic god's death.

Therefore, what is even more chilling is that such a huge amount of demonic resentment is actually gathered in one person.

This is the first time even Yae Shenzi has seen this situation.

"And he doesn't seem to know it himself, but in fact he has begun to be affected by the demon's resentment."

"Huh? Why?"

"That's because I know him."

Yae Shenzi recalled Lin Jinnian’s previous behavior.

"If it were him in the past, he would definitely listen to me, and he wouldn't be as stubborn as he is today."

"He is a very cautious person and will definitely agree to my exorcism."

"But now, that guy still thinks he is very good."

Ying and Paimon thought about it carefully, and it seemed that it was indeed as Yae Shenzi said, Lin Jinnian felt a little strange after arriving at Narukami Taisha Shrine.

"so……"

Yae Shenzi looked directly at the two of them with his deep eyes.

"What on earth is going on? I think... you two little guys need to give me an explanation~"

This time she was really angry.

If I had known that asking Lin Jinnian to go out to rescue them would cause trouble, I might as well have gone there myself. Alas...

Moreover, he was injured because of another woman, and he felt inexplicably jealous when he thought about this Yao Shenzi.

Ying quickly explained and told her everything about the situation in the Evil Eye Factory.

The skirmishers took advantage of the demon's resentment on the remains of the ancient demon [Orocha Orobus] on Balu Island to set a trap in the Evil Eye Factory.

Ying only knew so much, after all, Lin Jinnian had already passed out as soon as she arrived.

"Then if that's the case..."

Yae Shenzi and Ying looked at Paimon in unison.

Paimon was a little nervous under their gazes.

"I... I might know..."

"At that time, Lin Jinnian knocked down the skirmisher with two blows, and then... then the skirmisher seemed to have said something that made him very angry."

"Then I saw a lot of terrifying black mist pouring towards him!"

"The mist disappeared after entering his body. It seemed that even the skirmishers were surprised..."

Fortunately, Paimon is better at telling stories and clearly told the two of them what happened.

"Is that so..."

"It seems that the resentment of Demon God Orobus was absorbed by Lin Jinnian by accident, which led to the current situation."

Yae Shenzi was not in the mood to think about what could make Lin Jinnian angry. She had to speed up the progress.

That is the resentment of the ancient demon god... Who knows what terrible consequences it will have over time.

"But why did he absorb the demon's resentment?"

Ying raised her own question. At that time, she was only invaded by the demon's resentment and had not absorbed it at all.

"I don't know about that either."

Yae Shenzi shook his head in a rare gesture.

"There are things about him that are so mysterious that even I can't fully understand him."

Having said that, she has not yet tortured Lin Jinnian about what he went through in the 500 years since he disappeared.

It seems that I will have to find an opportunity to ask in the future.

"We need to prepare an exorcism ritual to get rid of the demonic resentment in him."

"I'm here to help."

It is my duty to do so in this matter.

After all, Lin Jinnian was tainted with the demon's resentment because he was trying to save her. He would be too ungrateful if he didn't do something.

"I'm here to help too!"

The same goes for Paimeng. She was also rescued by Lin Jinnian, so she naturally wanted to help.

"That's what I've been waiting for."

Yae Kamiko took out a piece of paper with something written on it and placed it on the table.

"I have already thought of a way to exorcise evil spirits, and the location has been chosen at Narukami Taisha Shrine, right under the sacred cherry tree outside."

The sacred cherry tree has the effect of restraining evil spirits. It has the best exorcism effect there and can best purify Lin Jinnian's demonic resentment.

"But, preparing for the exorcism ritual requires some special materials..."

Then Yae Shenzi paused and continued.

"And... you also know that he is so powerful. If he wakes up during the exorcism ceremony... he accidentally goes berserk or resists."

"So I plan to make a potion that after he drinks, it will ensure that he sleeps deeply during the whole process and cannot wake up even if he is struck by lightning."

"Huh? Why...it doesn't sound right?"

Paimon felt that this potion seemed a bit strange, and it looked too much like... what was that?Is it really okay to make this weird potion?

Yae Shenzi immediately saw through what Paimon was thinking and gave her a blow.

"What are you thinking about? I am the Palace Secretary of Narukami Taisha Shrine. How could I have those dirty and obscene thoughts?"

"That's right..."

Paimon rubbed his forehead. No matter what, Yae Shenzi is still the palace minister of Narukami Taisha Shrine and a pure miko. It is impossible to do this, right?

Of course, it might have been the pain in her head that convinced her.

And Yae Shenzi swore in her heart that she never thought of doing anything shady with these potions.

I wasn't planning on knocking him out and doing something inappropriate for children.

How could she treat Lin Jinnian like this?right.

These potions are all used for the exorcism plan, unless... there are still some left after using them up, hum.

"Okay, making the potion also lacks a few ingredients. This is the list of materials."

"Some materials can only be found on Haiji Island and Yalu Island. They are the territory of the resistance. Due to their status, it is inconvenient for my people to go, so I would like to trouble you to make a trip."

"Ok."

After Ying glanced at the list, she found that she knew most of the materials. Even if there was something she didn't know, she could go to Coral Palace Xinhai for help.

Coral Palace Xinhai is a goddess and a witch, and she will definitely be able to help them.

Then Ying folded the list in half and put it away carefully.

Yae Shenzi warned with some worry.

"Time is running out, you have to leave tomorrow."

After all, the longer the delay, the easier it is for the demon's resentment to take root, and the more serious the impact will be.

Be sure to perform an exorcism ritual before the point of no return.

"And you also know how powerful Lin Jinnian is and how difficult it is to deal with, right? If he has doubts and is wary of us, then the risk of the exorcism ritual will be greatly increased."

"So you must do it secretly, and you must not be discovered by him."

Ying and Paimon nodded solemnly, once again feeling the heavy responsibility.

……

So the next morning, they embarked on a journey to find materials early.

Returning to the resistance army again, Ying directly found Coral Palace Xinhai.

"Traveler, Paimon, you are finally back."

Coral Palace Xinhai finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that both of them were safe.

"Thanks to you at the Evil Eye Factory for dealing with the fools inside, our subsequent settlement work went smoothly."

"For this, please allow me to express my gratitude to you again."

"It's okay, Xinhai, no need to be so polite...hehe."

Paimeng was a little embarrassed. In fact, she didn't do anything. It was all the credit of Ying and Lin Jinnian.

Yingze took out the folded paper and stated the purpose of his trip.

"Xinhai, we need these materials."

"Material?"

Coral Palace Xinhai took the paper and glanced at it quickly.

"We have just enough of these materials in our inventory. Just wait a moment, and I'll have someone get them right now."

She was very conscious and did not interfere with the purpose of the materials.

Ying didn't expect that it would be so easy to find all the materials at once. She couldn't believe it.

When did she have such a smooth day?

She was stunned for a moment, then thanked Coral Palace Xinhai.

"Thank you."

"Travellers don't have to be so polite. These are nothing compared to your contribution to the resistance."

While waiting for the soldiers to deliver the materials, Ying and Paimon also met Zheping.

His complexion now is completely different from the last time we met.
