Genshin Impact: I'm the Group Owner in Teyvat

Karmic obstacles can cause harm that is difficult to eliminate for ordinary people. Even powerful beings with divine eyes will suffer wear and tear from staying near Xiao for too long.

Although its power is not as great as the wear and tear caused by the gods, it will still change people's character.

After Philgoldette left, a figure appeared silently.

"For me?"

Muttering something under his breath, Xiao picked up the letter, squeezed it gently, and the letter floated out.

This is a very cute cartoon paper with Dudu's mark on it, like a page torn from a diary.

The page contains several lines of text written in Liyue's script.

Happy birthday to the 1.5-meter-tall immortal!

"If I didn't know that the Great Sage Who Subdues Demons doesn't like crowds, I would definitely bring you a cake, sing you a song, and treat you to longevity noodles, haha!"

"I've been in the group for so long, it's not good to just lurk. Come out and say something occasionally, let's chat."

"The bag contains a birthday present for you. Please accept it. We'll see each other in a few days."

"That's all for now, see you later."

Signed: Chu Luo.

After reading the contents of the letter, a slight ripple flashed in Xiao's eyes.

Then came deep doubt.

Birthday?

This word is too unfamiliar.

So much time has passed, and his companions have disappeared one by one. Now burdened by karmic obstacles, he has long since lost interest in these trivial matters.

But now, a mysterious person has remembered my birthday and even sent me a greeting and a gift.

The coldness on his face melted slightly, and the corners of the boy's mouth twitched gently.

"Thank you for your kind words."

"If you are in trouble, call my name."

"I suppose you can hear me."

The mysterious group owner, whose origins and strength are unknown, naturally made Xiao think that Chu Luo could hear him.

Unfortunately, Chu Luo couldn't hear it, but he knew.

After putting down the letter, Xiao became curious and picked up the small package next to him.

Gently open it, and a fragrance you've never smelled before wafts out, revealing a sachet.

The emerald green sachet was made of an unknown material, and its contents were also unknown.

But when the aroma wafted over, Xiao's expression froze!

A faint layer of black mist around his body was activated by the scent emanating from the sachet, turning into wisps of green smoke that drifted away.

Xiao, who was constantly distracted by fighting against karmic obstacles, suddenly felt the pressure on his body lighten!

"This thing!"

Xiao's expression changed drastically for the first time: "It can actually eliminate the difficulty of karmic obstacles?"

The boy's eyes showed a shock he hadn't seen in many years. He saw a note in the bag containing the sachet and quickly picked it up.

There were words clearly written on the note.

“A sachet for exorcising evil spirits can protect you from karmic obstacles in your daily life, but it cannot eradicate them completely.”

"After a battle, karmic burdens surge. The sachet can be used once a day to remove the karmic burdens from the battle. Doing it more often will be ineffective."

"Wear it at all times, avoid fighting, and one day your karmic obstacles will naturally disappear."

Xiao's expression was one of utter shock.

This tiny sachet has such powerful effects?

You should know that ever since he was saved by the Rock King Emperor, the karmic obstacles and demonic energy on his body have accumulated to a terrifying level.

Among them are demons and gods, evil spirits, and countless monsters of all sizes.

Even the Emperor couldn't solve this problem, but... there's actually a turning point?

Even if the karmic obstacles are not removed, this is already a great kindness.

"If summoned, Xiao, obey orders and come to protect!"

Why isn't Noelle a Knight of Favonius in Chapter 111?

As night fell, Liyue Harbor was brightly lit.

Such prosperity was commonplace in Teyvat's largest trading grounds for Mora.

Along the central street, there is one of Liyue's premier restaurants.

New Moon Pavilion.

At the entrance, two Qianyan soldiers were on guard, along with Yue Shu, a waiter from Xinyuexuan.

Tonight, Lady Ningguang has booked the New Moon Pavilion, supposedly to invite a distinguished and mysterious guest to discuss some matters.

As dusk settled, a tall, slender figure walked through the bustling market toward Xinyuexuan.

In the afternoon, Zhongli received an invitation from Baiwen; Ningguang wanted to treat her to dinner.

After thinking about it, Zhongli agreed.

D'Artagnan has been quite busy these past few days because the invocation ceremony is about to begin.

Zhongli had previously revealed some information to Tartaglia, including the history of Liyue, the demon god suppressed in Guyun Pavilion, and news about the immortals in Jueyun Karst, which would keep Tartaglia busy for a while.

With Tadalia busy, Zhongli was quite worried.

"Well, there are still some flaws after all; human strength has its limits."

"Next time, give him more direct information. That way, he can stay in Liyue longer and go out less."

"We've accumulated some more bills lately, it's time to earn some Mora for the head of the hall."

With these thoughts flashing through his mind, Zhongli stepped into the Crescent Moon Pavilion.

In the center of the main hall of Xinyuexuan, a large table is filled with steaming dishes.

When Zhongli entered, he saw Ningguang, who was sitting at the table in front of him, stand up and smile slightly.

"Mr. Zhongli, please forgive my abrupt invitation."

"Miss Ningguang, you're too kind."

Zhongli gestured "please" and sat down opposite Ningguang.

With a slight smile, Ningguang sat opposite Zhongli.

"Mr. Zhongli is a wise man, so I won't beat around the bush."

Ningguang smiled and looked at Zhongli opposite her: "Mr. Zhongli received a 'Handbook for the Protection of Retirees' in the chat group earlier, right?"

"good."

Zhongli looked at the pickled bamboo shoots and pork stew on the table and felt a commotion in her stomach.

With D'Artagnan gone, Zhongli has only been eating one meal a day for the past two days.

Ningguang's eyes flickered as she stared at Zhongli's expression for a while, and many of her doubts disappeared.

Such a genuine expression probably indicates that he was being overly cautious and suspicious.

how can that be possible.

Ningguang had previously paid attention to this famous Mr. Zhongli in Liyue Harbor because his knowledge was too extensive and his connections were too clear, making it hard not to be suspicious.

As for Zhongli being the Rock King Emperor, Ningguang didn't make such a bold conjecture.

Given Liyue's current situation, the era of rule by men has arrived, and she wants to give Liyue a new direction.

But as his will became apparent, problems arose.

Behind Liyue Harbor lies the Celestials, also known as the Three-Eyed Five-Manifested Celestials.

During last year's ceremony to invite immortals, Keqing's disrespectful words towards the Rock King Emperor had already drawn criticism from some people and immortals.

Furthermore, the enigmatic laughter that the Rock King Emperor displayed at that time only fueled further speculation.

Therefore, Ningguang attached great importance to this ceremony of inviting the immortals.

She wanted to know what the Emperor was thinking.

But the premise is that the immortals cannot interfere in secret.

Ningguang suspected that Zhongli was one of the immortals.

But for now, Mr. Zhongli's apparent interest in food has actually put Ningguang at ease.

Immortals wouldn't do that.

From Ningguang's perspective, which sees through people's hearts, it is absolutely impossible.

Immortals are aloof and disdainful of worldly things, and they would never show such keen interest in an ordinary dish like pickled bamboo shoots and pork soup.

Zhongli stared intently at the pickled bamboo shoots and pork soup, waiting for Ningguang to continue.

I'm so hungry.

To mitigate the effects of wear and tear, one must fully immerse oneself in one's identity. Zhongli is just an ordinary retired old man who has finished listening to a storyteller and is preparing to eat dinner.

Not being able to eat it is really exhausting.

"If Mr. Zhongli is hungry, how about we eat and chat?"

With a slight smile, Ningguang felt good: "I'm quite interested in that 'Handbook for Retirees'. Mr. Zhongli, could you please allow me to print a copy?"

"As for the price, Mr. Zhongli, how about you name your price?"

Since we live in an era of rule by man, we must ensure the quality of life for the people. Ningguang values ​​this handbook very much.
