In Genshin Impact, I'm really not Muzan.

In this way, the ruthless killer will not disappear, and the great hero who is specifically opposed to him will not be doubted by the ignorant masses.

Judging from the current situation, Suzumiya Yu's plan is progressing smoothly. The only unexpected thing is the sudden appearance of Tenri.

Fortunately, his divine nature had diminished considerably, and his strength was far less than before; otherwise, he would probably have already fled to the Dark Sea.

"Speaking of which, are your parents still alive, Ryoumi?" Shenhe suddenly turned to look at Ryoumi, which caught her somewhat off guard.

Goodness, this is like they're starting to check your household registration!

However, Suzumiya Yu didn't actually know how her parents were doing, because she hadn't seen them for several years. Their own son had gone missing; they couldn't possibly remain calm no matter what.

Moreover, Suzumiya Yu is an only child, and the treatment of only children goes without saying; those who know, know.

Even so... before his transmigration, Suzumiya Yu was not a pampered young master. His father's belt and his mother's slippers always made him restrain his sharp edge, and he would occasionally suffer a double beating from the two of them, which was truly unbearable.

In the past, Yui Suzumiya believed that she would become very free once she left her parents, and that was indeed the case. She was free, but no one cared about her anymore.

Growing up in this environment is probably one of the main reasons why Yuu Suzumiya has become the way she is now, but that's no longer important to her.

Even if he had grown up in a good environment, he would probably have gradually evolved into what he is now. After all, the incompatibility between species is one of the main reasons why he cannot coexist with humans.

The only way to solve this problem is to become the supreme ruler of mankind. In this way, even if it is just a matter of using force to coerce others, one can coexist with mankind.

“My parents live in Inazuma, that old couple. I haven’t been home to see them for a long time,” Ryoumi Yu replied to Shinzuru with a dry laugh.

In this world, he is portrayed as an ordinary person from a family of samurai for generations. He is an only child with both parents, but his parents live deep in the mountains of Inazuma.

It was only in Liyue that Suzumiya Yu said these things. If it were in Inazuma, and someone just said they wanted to see his parents, it would be a problem. After all, in this world, he was a true orphan with no blood relatives.

Even his beloved son will not be born for another two months. Speaking of which, he doesn't seem to have named the child yet, which is quite a pity.

"I see. They live in Inazuma, right? If I have the chance, I really want to meet them." Shinhaku nodded, expressing his true feelings.

First they checked his household registration, and then they wanted to meet his parents? Was Shen He's statement unintentional or deliberate? To be honest, Liang Gongyou couldn't tell anymore, because in his opinion, no one should be able to say these things without expression, not even him.

“Ah, if you go to Inazuma in the future... I might be able to introduce you to them,” Ryoumi replied. It seems that after returning from Liyue this time, I'll have to create a set of parents for him.

This task can be given to Shadow, because she can create androids. It would be very strange to use ordinary residents, and they probably wouldn't be able to accept this concept either. Even Suzumiya Yui wouldn't be able to accept it.

Creating two autonomous androids was not a difficult task for Shadow, since these androids did not require her to inject some of her power into them during their creation, unlike General and Skirmisher.

Speaking of the general... For some reason, Suzumiya Yu always had a bad feeling, as if something big was about to happen.

It would be better if this important matter happened after he returned, but it would be troublesome if it happened while he was away.

Because Inazuma and Rigetsu are too far apart, Suzumiya Yu can no longer sense the presence of Kujo Sara and Toma. However, she can occasionally hear images of them when she concentrates.

In a world without cell phones and with limited communication technology, if something unexpected were to happen to Inazuma under these circumstances, it would be as if Suzumiya Yu had been robbed of her home.

However, with Shadow and Yae no Kamiko around, there shouldn't be any major problems. After all, one of them is one of the Seven Rulers of the Mortal Realm, and the other is a member of the Thunder God's Familiar. In terms of strength, there are really few people on the Teyvat continent who can deal with them.

"Where should we go next? Like last time, should we go to the city?" After visiting Shen He's hometown, she began to think about where to go next.

Chapter 229 On the Consumption of Liyue

Normally, Shen He would definitely suggest going to the mountains to cultivate alone, but not now, because her cultivation involves integrating into human society.

So, when she had nothing to do, she would often go for a stroll in the city and occasionally greet passersby, but most of the time she would suppress her anger.

Perhaps it was because of his outstanding temperament, or perhaps it was because of his outstanding appearance, that Shen He often noticed people staring at him on the street.

Some people were alright; their eyes only expressed curiosity about her. But others were different. The lewdness in their eyes was completely undisguised. If it weren't for the red rope binding them, Shen He probably would have slapped them twice.

However, she also knew that if she wanted to integrate into human society, she had to cure her bad temper, because attacking pedestrians on the street was something that could not be tolerated under the laws of Liyue. Once she made a mistake, all that awaited her was jail time.

Prison food isn't about experiencing life; it's just pure stupidity. If Shen He were to go to jail for assaulting someone in the street, that would be even stupider than being stupid.

"Let's go for a stroll in the streets. The Lantern Festival is coming up soon, who knows what kind of adventure we might have?" Liang Gongyou said. The adventure he was referring to was actually the chance encounter that would allow Shen He to integrate into human society.

For example, if someone encounters difficulties and asks Shen He to help them, and that person can say thank you afterwards, then that would be an extraordinary encounter.

It's funny, really. Something that seems perfectly normal to most people becomes more precious than pearls when it comes to Shen He. If you told others about it, they might not believe it.

......

As the sun sets, a bright moon rises slowly, hanging overhead. Liyue Harbor is brightly lit and bustling with activity.

Suzumiya Yu and Shin-haku weaved through the crowd, their presence noticeably more striking than that of ordinary people, drawing stares wherever they went.

Many people stared at them curiously, especially those who harbored unusual fantasies about them. Upon seeing the couple's bracelets on their wrists, they immediately showed extreme disappointment.

It seems that the Puxin group will exist in every era. Liang Gongyou doesn't dislike them, because before he transmigrated, he was one of the Puxin group, but he was in the early stages of the disease and hadn't reached the point of being incurable.

"Although I visited Liyue Harbor three days ago, seeing it now still makes me marvel at how bustling the cities humans live in are." Looking at the sea of ​​people in front of him, Shen He couldn't help but sigh.

Suzumiya Yu shrugged upon hearing this, because he knew that this phenomenon only occurred in Liyue. Places like Inazuma and Mondstadt, even if they held festivals or celebrations, would never be as lively as Liyue Harbor.

Well, it's quite lively, though. The only difference between the two is that neither of them inspires passion.

“By the way, haven’t we been here before?” As they passed by Mingxingzhai, Shen He couldn’t help but glance at it. They had been there before and bought a pair of couple bracelets that were the envy of everyone.

However, Shen He didn't know what the thing symbolized, so he didn't really feel anything. He simply thought it was just a gift he gave to a friend.

"What's wrong? Are you still planning to go take a look?" Ryouko saw through Shin-ho's thoughts and suggested that they go take a look.

“Hmm, I’d like to see if there are any more bracelets like that. The Chongyun family has treated me well, so I plan to buy a few pairs and send them to them,” Shen He said. Her serious expression almost made Liang Gongyou curse out loud.

"No, it's better not to do that." Ryou quickly rejected Shen He's suggestion. What a joke! Can couple bracelets be given away as gifts so casually? The problem is, you're giving away a whole pair, not even keeping one for yourself.

Chongyun's parents are an old married couple, and they come from a family of exorcists. They probably have more pearls and treasures than the entire Starry Pavilion combined.

"Why? It's just a gift to repay them, what's wrong with that?" Shen He was full of doubt, she couldn't understand why Liang Gongyou would refuse her.

"I'll explain this to you later. For now, you just need to know that you don't need to do that. If you want to buy gifts for their family, you can buy something else, like bracelets, but don't buy matching ones."

Liang Gongyou gave a rather veiled explanation. He didn't tell Shen He the reason, but simply asked her to choose a different gift. After all, Mingxingzhai had a wide variety of jewelry, including many bracelets and other accessories sold individually.

"I see." Shen He nodded. "Since you've said so, I'll do as you say."

Afterwards, Shen He went to the front desk of Mingxingzhai and began to select a suitable gift for Chongyun's family.

While she was choosing a gift, Suzumiya Yuu stood quietly behind her. He glanced at the crowded street and sighed that Liyue truly lived up to its reputation as the city of contracts.

However, there might be some favoritism on Old Mi's part. If that's the case, all I can say is... Well done!

"Please give me this." After browsing at the front desk for a long time, Shen He finally settled on a necklace. The necklace was quite expensive, costing a whopping nine million Mora.

Are you kidding me? Nearly eight figures of Mora would make you a small tycoon in Inazuma, but in Liyue it can only buy a necklace.

Suzumiya Yu is indeed very wealthy; in fact, the entire treasury of Inazuma could be considered his assets. Even so, he believes he cannot compare to the wealthy merchants of Liyue.

In their eyes, the competition between Mora was just a game, and there were very few reports of wealthy businessmen falling from grace, because even if they couldn't make it in Liyue, they could continue their businesses elsewhere.

Liyue's consumption is basically more than 50% of that of other countries in Teyvat. For example, Inazuma accounts for 60%. Since she has not been to other countries, Suzumiya Yui cannot make an accurate judgment.

However... a 20% increase in consumption is already quite astonishing, so what does a 60% increase mean? It can only be described as terrifying.

The main reason for this might be that the only place on the continent that produces Mora is the Golden House in Liyue. Because it can produce Mora at any time, it has become the richest country on the Teyvat continent.

So it seems that Liyue's consumption is 60% higher than other places, which is not particularly outrageous, because if they wanted to, they could consume 100% more or even more than other places.

Because they control the flow of Mora across the entire continent, if the Liyue Seven Stars wanted to, they could even directly establish an economic monopoly, which would be fatal to the other six nations.

Chapter 230 An unexpected encounter with Ah Qing while shopping

"I'm sorry, sir, this necklace has already been reserved, so I can't sell it to you."

At the front desk of Mingxingzhai, Shen He had already chosen a gift to give to Chongyun's family, but the shop owner, Xingxi, refused to sell it to her, saying that someone had already made a reservation.

"Reservation...what does that mean? Does it mean I didn't pay enough?" Shen He couldn't understand the meaning of the word "reservation." She thought it meant she didn't pay enough, so she kept taking out one money bag full of Mora from her pocket.

This scene was witnessed by the newlyweds passing by. Even though Liyue is the city of contracts and the richest country in Teyvat, no one would flaunt it like this, right? Moreover, the amount of money Shen He took out was not small at all, at least 20 million Mora.

In the real world, Mora comes in various denominations, such as one Mora, ten Mora, and white Mora, unlike in the game where it can only be counted individually.

In reality, the largest denomination of Mora is one million, but that's for the wealthy. Ordinary people simply can't afford it, because in a sense, those with family assets exceeding one million Mora are no longer considered ordinary people.

"No, no, no, sir, you misunderstand. It's not that you haven't paid enough, but that someone has already bought this necklace, they just haven't taken it yet. It's already owned, so I can't sell it to you."

Xingxi quickly explained to Shenhe, because she was afraid she would change her mind if things continued like this.

No, to be precise, she wanted to change her mind, but she didn't dare, because the person who had reserved the necklace was someone she couldn't afford to offend—a very important figure she would normally bow to on the street.

"I see..." Shen He nodded. After Xingxi's explanation, she understood why she couldn't sell the necklace, but she still didn't quite understand the term "reservation".

However, Shen He had her own unique understanding of these unfamiliar words. For example, after Xing Xi explained the word "reservation," she knew that if someone else had reserved something, she could no longer buy it.

In this way, even if she doesn't understand the meaning of the appointment, she can still understand its general meaning and at least know what she needs to do.

"In that case, I'll take another look." Since she couldn't buy the gift she liked, Shen He could only choose another one. However, although the jewelry selection at Mingxingzhai was extensive, there were very few pieces that would catch her eye.

Because he lived deep in the mountains for many years, Shen He would find many jewels and similar items when he went out to train. These jewels were either naturally formed or passed down from ancient times.

She usually ignored those jewels or just threw them away somewhere. To her at that time, they were useless. To her now, they are just gifts to be given away.

Ryou Suzumiya stood aside without saying a word. If it was something that Shin-haku could handle, he wouldn't interfere. He would only take action if Shin-haku couldn't handle it or even wanted to resolve it with his fists.

"Suzumiya? What are you doing here?" Just then, a familiar voice rang in her ears. Suzumiya Yu turned her head and saw that it was Keqing dressed in casual clothes.

Beside her were several women of similar age, whose attire clearly indicated that they were also young ladies from wealthy families, taking a stroll during their leisure time.

This point was mentioned in Keqing's character story, but in this case, shouldn't Keqing be holding two Emperor clay figurines? After all, those things could fill an entire wardrobe in her house.

"Ah... I'm just accompanying someone out for a stroll." Ryou answered Keqing's question, and this was the truth, because his current purpose was to accompany Shenhe for a stroll around Liyue Harbor.

"Accompanying someone...out for a stroll?" A question mark appeared in Ke Qing's mind. She looked at the front desk of Mingxingzhai and saw Shen He picking out gifts there.

This glance had a significant impact. The problem was that she happened to see the matching bracelets on Suzumiya Yu and Shin-haku's wrists. What did this mean? It meant that the two of them were on a date, and their relationship was obvious at a glance, since it was all too clear.

"Oh...oh...I see, are you out on a date with your lover?" Ke Qing's tone became inexplicably nervous as she looked at Shen He, only to find that she didn't remember such a person at all.

Not only that, she was also amazed by the aura emanating from the other person, which was so similar to the immortals in Jueyun. It was as if a crane untouched by the mortal world was standing there, making people unable to help but turn their heads to look at it.

However, besides her, there was another person present who was very easy to attract attention, and that was Suzumiya Yu.

Putting aside his godlike appearance, Ryouji Suzumiya exudes a completely different aura from ordinary people. He is like a mountain, displaying composure in every gesture, as if nothing in this world could cause him to have any emotional fluctuations.

Ke Qing had met someone like this before; it was Mr. Zhongli from the Hall of Rebirth. As a guest elder of the hall, his prestige was no less than that of the hall master, Hu Tao. Even Ke Qing and Ning Guang tried their best to win him over.

However, despite his youthful appearance, Zhongli seems to have entered old age prematurely. He is indifferent to everything and has no interest in becoming a subordinate of the Seven Stars. The reason he became a guest elder of the Hall of Rebirth is only because he wanted to find someone to pay his bill.

According to statistics, nearly one-third of the income of Wangshengtang in the past three months has been spent by Zhongli. As for what he did, he probably just enjoyed flowers and birds, appreciated antiques, and when he was in a good mood, he would spend a lot of money to buy all the antiques in the store.

Zhongli has no concept of money, and that's not his fault, because he himself represents money, and is the only being that represents money.
