In Douluo Continent, my summoning of Naxi Da was exposed by the heavens.

The scene on the screen continued. Zhongli led the little girl who looked remarkably like Guizhong into the room. Holding a photo of Guizhong, he asked the little girl, "Do you believe in reincarnation?"

"Sir, I don't quite understand what you mean."

"Come with me."

The Emperor gently patted the little girl's head.

The scene then shifts to the immortals of Liyue gathered together.

Xianyun, Granny Ping, Zibai, Xiao, the True Lord of Shaving the Moon and Building the Sun, and the True Lord of Flowing Water and Stacking Mountains are all present.

"Why did Your Majesty suddenly decide to summon the immortals?"

"All the immortals have arrived; it has been so many years since we've had such a proper gathering."

"After Gui Zhong left, there was no more."

"Gentlemen, I've brought people here without permission. I hope you don't mind?"

Zhong Li led the little girl in.

"mortal?"

"No, this is..."

"A reincarnation?"

"Why haven't we seen the True Lord Ge Chen Lang Shi?"

Grandma Ping was right there, but she still maintained that old and frail appearance and did not reveal her true form.

Grandma Ping sat in front of the zither, thinking to herself, "She was never the right person."

The little girl then walked up to Grandma Ping.

"Hello, sister!"

"Sister? Hahaha, you understand music too?"

"I know a little bit, and I can even use mechanical arts to play music."

Upon hearing this, Grandma Ping's heart was no longer at peace. Images of Grandma Ping playing the zither in her youth appeared on the screen, along with Gui Zhong and the dust-removing bell she had made.

"Music is the sound of the soul, and it cannot be replaced by a machine."

"What about music as an alternative to simple music?"

"That won't work either!"

"Then let's ask Mr. Zhongli to judge this matter."

"Haha, that's exactly what I was thinking too."

The conversation between Grandma Ping and the little girl perfectly replicated the argument between Ge Chenlang Shizhenjun and Gui Zhong back then.

The scene ends here, but the feelings it evokes are far from over.

"Zhongli, how is Aping now?"

"She still looks old, and she hasn't played the zither in a long time, but she has taken on two disciples, both of whom are very good children."

"Really? That's great! I really want to meet them."

"There will be opportunities in the future, I promise."

"Yes, there will be a chance. Xiangling is the culinary goddess of Liyue. Her cooking is superb. I believe you will like it. There is a dish called boiled blackback bass, which is especially delicious."

"Boiled blackback sea bass? I must try it sometime."

Many people on the Douluo Continent side are also expressing their feelings.

"Reincarnation, Miss Dolly, do you think there's a concept of reincarnation in the Douluo Continent?"

"Huh? You're asking me? I'm not sure how to answer that. I don't know much about your world. I'm just a businessman."

"It's alright, I just wanted to hear what you had to say, Miss Dolly."

"It probably does exist. This world has no ley lines, so souls and information cannot be reassembled. Reincarnation may indeed exist, but that would be of little significance."

The soul has changed, and there are no memories left; it's a complete stranger now, so there's no need to be too attached to it.

Although she said that, if someone who looked exactly like Dolly actually stood in front of her right now, Dolly would never be as carefree as she claimed.

This would be the same for anyone; even a god like Zhongli couldn't overcome this hurdle.

Welcome back. Now, a new chapter begins. Next up is the story of Grand Master Falgar.

The scene shifts, and Paimon complains that she doesn't know when a letter appeared in her backpack. She then opens the letter and sees its contents.

Traveler's message: Hey! Long time no see, my friend.

"Are you trying to say we just saw each other not long ago? For a heart that misses a friend, every single moment feels like eternity!"

"Besides, you experienced such a grand adventure in Nordkalley, you must have accumulated quite a few stories."

"Is it just so you can catch up with an old friend?"

"Isn't it just so possible that you need a bard to turn your story into poetry?"

"Then come to Star-Picking Cliff to reminisce. Fine wine and musical instruments are ready for you."

A bard

It is clear that this is a letter Wendy wrote to a traveler, and it was carried by the wind.

So the Traveler and Paimon arrived at Stargazing Cliff and found Wendy.

When Wendy saw them arrive, she played a tune for them first.

"Welcome back, my old friend. How shall I address you now? Knight of Honor of Mondstadt? Dumeni of Nata? Or the great hero of Nordkal?

"Just call me by my name."

"Hehe, it hasn't been long since the Nordkare incident, and the news has already reached you so quickly. Your information network is really impressive."

"Hehe, the wind is always one step ahead of the carrier pigeon, but to turn your adventure into a poem, we still need to hear the protagonist's own story."

Come, the wine and strings are ready, we await your story. Please sit, traveler.

So the traveler sat down and told Wendy what had happened in Nordkale.

"I see. The story of the Moon Hunter and the Doctor is truly a magnificent adventure."

It sounds like the Wild Hunt has fallen silent after dealing with the Lunarians?

"It seems so. After that, we were all focused on dealing with the Doctor."

"Although some remnants of the Wild Hunt remain, they no longer pose a major threat."

"That's good. Now that the calamity of the abyss in the north has been resolved, Falga and the rest of the expeditionary force should be able to return in peace."

"It's been so long since we last saw them; I wonder how many stories they'll bring back."

"Speaking of which... have you met before?"

"Yes, I'm a little curious too. Falgar called you Barbatos, but shouldn't you have been sleeping when he was still in Mondstadt?"

"Well, I should say I was half asleep. I was sleeping soundly in the Thousand Winds Temple when I suddenly heard the sound of fighting outside."

It turned out to be a young knight who had heard the tales and legends in the tavern and sought out this place in search of trials and divine guidance.

Although he was met only with moss-covered stone walls and the fierce attacks of the ruins' guards, the young man paid no heed, laughing as he launched the missile into the sky.

Paimon retorted, "If you can be woken up even when you're sound asleep, just how noisy is it?"

"It's probably like..."

Boom! Boom! Boom! Another loud noise came from not far away.

The scene shifts to a young knight wielding a lance, battling the ruins' guards.

"Hey! Is that all? Come on, hahaha!"

In a few swift moves, the ruins guards were defeated by the young knight.

"He fell down so quickly; he wasn't as resilient as Falgar said."

The Traveler, Paimon, and Wendy then came over.
