Genshin Impact's Sweet and Hard Free People

Genshin Impact: The Sweet and Ridiculous Free People (Author: Xin Yimingxuan)

"Xiao Xin, do you want a wife?" Ah... this, Xin Hui looked embarrassed, but still smiled, "Yes, yes, I need a wife, whatever makes you happy."

Until he came to his senses. What?! The cute girl with purple twin tails in front of him is my wife?! And the famous Lady Yuheng!

"There's no way around it, we Liyue people value contracts very much." Faced with the girl's outstretched fair hand, Xinhui hesitated, but still took it.

"Traveler from another world, please...please take responsibility and abide by the contract between us," said Gan Yu, the half-immortal beast. A contract? Xin Hui had already lost most of his memories and couldn't recall any connection between him and Gan Yu. *Don't cry, I'll take responsibility.*

Xin Hui looked at Ke Qing and Gan Yu beside him, feeling uneasy. What should he do? Should he go to Yan Fei to ask about the law? He was quite anxious.

...The distant memory of radiance awakens in the dark, colorless place.

The fragmented images flooding Xin Hui's mind served as a warning against interfering with the seemingly peaceful world of Teyvat. What had happened here?

[The plot of this book is a fantasy interlude; readers can apply it to the Teyvat universe as they see fit. Since Keqing's grandfather is deceased in the game, this has been corrected in this text.]

Chapter One: Encounter in the Snow Mountain

Longji Snow Mountain.

Spikes from outer space destroyed the former kingdom. Years later, only ruins remain for the world to remember its existence.

That ruin is called the "City of Snow Burial".

As the spikes hung from the dome, an aura of destruction emanated from them. Amidst the swirling snow and wind, the air was bitterly cold.

In such cold conditions, only an artificial human like Abedo, the Son of Cretaceous, could survive unscathed.

Abedo glanced at the distant, frigid sky. In recent days, the power of the spikes had become even more intense.

Aberdo had a premonition that the effects of the spikes would eventually trigger a massive change.

It was time to go back. He left the camp in the cave and followed the snow-covered road as usual. However, today was somewhat unexpected.

Beneath a broken staircase, where there should have been a blanket of snow, figures could now be vaguely seen amidst the swirling snowflakes.

Aberdo lightly jumped down the broken ladder and went over to check the situation.

There was indeed a person lying next to the dark gray rocks.

The person wore only a light blue garment, which covered only half of their forearm. Their blue hair and the half of their face exposed outside the snow made them appear fair and delicate.

Abedo half-squatted in front of him, initially thinking the man might be frozen stiff, but then he discovered that the man's frozen eyelashes were still trembling, and he was still alive, which surprised him.

He took out a translucent, milky-white pearl from his pocket—an alchemical device used to detect elemental forces.

Abedo placed the pearl in the blue-clad youth's hand and quietly awaited its transformation.

As for why it was placed in the hands of the young man in blue, it was because Abedo did not find the Eye of God on him.

Without harnessing elemental power, it would be impossible for an ordinary person to brave the wind and snow to get here.

In the blink of an eye, a bright color suddenly appeared on the pearl: blue, yellow, purple, green, indigo, red, and white.

The seven intertwined lights left Abedo somewhat awestruck. These seven lights represented the seven elemental forces that touched them, though somewhat faint, the fact remained undeniable.

Nothing can possess all seven elemental forces at the same time; this would violate the rules of alchemy.

Is the elemental probe broken?

Abedo decided to take the young man back to the camp to prevent him from freezing to death on the frozen ground.

……

The camp was slightly warm, illuminated by the firelight. When the aroma of the radish and vegetable soup that Abedo was cooking wafted out, the young man in blue, who had been lying on the ground for a long time, finally stirred.

Perhaps it was the two blankets that Abedo had laid out for him, or perhaps it was the effect of the flames, but as he felt warm, Xinhui gradually opened his eyes.

"You're awake?" A soft voice from Abedo reached Xinhui's ears, and he regained consciousness.

He slowly sat up and pulled back the fluffy blanket covering him.

"you are?"

Xin Hui looked at the young man in front of him with some surprise, who was showing him sincerity and kindness. He was clearly still a little unaware of his situation.

"I am Abedo, the chief alchemist of the Knights of Favonius." Abedo simply introduced himself, then picked up the jewel again.

"Take this."

Xin Hui took the elemental probe bead in astonishment, but this time nothing happened.

So, it really did disappear...

By the time Xinhui came to his senses, he was already holding a bowl of radish and vegetable soup and had taken a sip.

Hmm... not too salty, not too bland, the taste is absolutely delicious.

Immediately afterwards, the boy with light yellow hair asked him a few questions.

What is your name?

Source of identity?

Why did we come to the snow-capped mountains?

"My name is Xinhui, and I'm the owner of Yiyuge in Liyue Harbor. So I guess you could say I'm from Liyue."

"I only remember that I was collecting some raspberries in Mingyun Town to use as dye, and then I heard that the snow mint near Longji Snow Mountain also had dyeing properties, so I planned to collect some."

"But as I approached the snow-capped mountain, a strange feeling compelled me to delve deeper into it."

As Xinhui spoke, he placed his right hand on his face, his expression pained, as if he were recalling some unpleasant memories.

"A strange feeling?" Abedo stroked his chin.

"It's like I was asked to come to the snow mountain to find something. It was a very strange feeling. Although I'm in good health, it's still a snow mountain after all. I probably couldn't resist and fainted. Thank you for saving me."

After listening, Abedo pondered for a while. It was very puzzling that Xinhui said he had lost his memories after arriving at the snow mountain.

"Perhaps it's because of the Demon Dragon Dulin; its residual power once caused the monsters in the snow mountain to go out of control," Abedo finally offered his analysis.

Dragon Durin!

Xinhui had heard of it, but didn't know the details of the story.

Seeing that Abedo was unwilling to say more, I felt embarrassed to ask any further.

“I will take you back when it gets light. There is plenty of mountain mint in the camp; you can take it with you,” Abedo said calmly.

Xin Hui looked at the numerous reagent bottles on the camp's shelves and curiously examined the boy's appearance.

His lake-blue eyes were high, deep, and unattainable. He had certainly heard of the renowned Knights of Favonius, but he never expected to encounter them in the snow-capped mountains.

"Remember, do not go near the snow-capped mountains during this period."

Xin Hui saw a serious look in Abedo's eyes after he said that.

Xinhui had no reason not to listen, especially given the strange things that had happened to him.

Tomorrow morning, I need to rush back to Liyue Harbor to see what needs to be prepared for the shop and go to the market to make some preparations.

In particular, the matter concerning Lady Ningguang also needs to be properly decided.

The night passed uneventfully, and Xin Hui suffered from insomnia, a sense of emptiness lingering in his mind. In the dead of night, he recalled what had happened after he entered the snow mountain. He hadn't really lost control back then... He vaguely saw a long nail.

This doubt kept him awake all night, but at least morning had arrived.

Bathed in the morning sunlight, Xinhui bid farewell to Abedo, who had saved him. Abedo waved back and turned to leave.

As Xinhui turned back towards Liyue, something in the distance was trembling slightly, as if it had been suppressed for a long time and was about to be released.

Xin Hui was naturally unaware of this. Despite being wrapped in a blanket, he still felt cold; all he wanted now was to experience the warm environment and atmosphere of Liyue.

Ah, it's so cold!

[Author's Note]: The main reason I decided to write Genshin Impact for this book is because it's too difficult for a newcomer to the fantasy genre. This idea came to me in a clever way. My style is that even when I'm writing a lighthearted and humorous story, I still want to add some depth to the narrative.

In short, I hope everyone will give us your support!

Chapter Two: Jade Balance Returns to Dawn

Liyue.

It boasts towering foothills and stone forests, vast plains, and vibrant riverbanks.

Since people moved from Guili Plains to Liyue Harbor, the hardworking people of Liyue have gradually come to life, adding prosperity to this port.

In this context, as the owner of the Yiyuge shop, Xinhui naturally had to integrate into this atmosphere.

Enjoying tea, chatting, playing chess... these are all his usual ways of relaxing.

However, today's game is quite close and difficult to determine.

With a "thud," the chess piece fell to the ground. Xin Hui's eyes held a hint of smugness and mockery. It wasn't that he was arrogant by nature, but rather that defeating this opponent was truly no easy feat.

"Xiaoxin, this is no good, let's play another round."

The white-haired old man opposite him, who was gently clutching a paper fan, was about to get up in a hurry, but after thinking about it, he sat down again.

With both cannons lost and no soldiers left, he was left with only a bicycle. How could he possibly face Xinhui's two cannons?

"No, I admit defeat, I admit defeat." The old man's deep voice carried a hint of vicissitude. "But, Xiao Xin, you have to play one more game with me."

"Oh? You're coming again, Elder Yun? I still have to watch the shop." Xin Hui's tone was tinged with difficulty and helplessness.

The young man dressed in light blue clothes is the owner of Yiyu Pavilion. Although he is used to a leisurely life, he still has to take care of the business.

Sure enough, Yiyu Pavilion is right across from where he was playing chess. Just now, during that game, someone shouted, "Where's the boss?"

Although people praised Yiyuge for its excellent fabrics and the young and capable owner, he didn't want the owner's prolonged absence to cause a decline in its reputation.

Clearly, the white-haired old man in the purple robe had no intention of letting him go.

"No, no, young man, you can't be so disrespectful in chess. How can you run away after winning?"

"But...my shop..."
