In Genshin Impact, I'm really not Muzan.

In this way, there is no need for them to continue. Even if there are any that escape, they can be handed over to the Thousand Rock Army to deal with. As for ordinary monsters, they can still handle them.

"I see... I understand. We'll follow your advice over there." Shen He nodded and agreed to Liang Gongyou's suggestion.

Afterward, she found a shady spot, swept away the dust from the ground, laid down a layer of leaves, and then lay down to sleep, quickly falling asleep.

Because she has lived in the deep mountains for many years, Shen He has a wealth of wilderness survival experience. No matter how harsh the environment, as long as it is not a place where humans cannot survive, she can fall asleep easily.

Normally, she might still be a bit wary, since resting in the wild could be attacked by monsters or other malicious people at any time.

This time was different, though. Because Suzumiya Yu was watching over her, Shin-haku fell asleep very quickly, and even her breathing was very even, making her look very at ease.

"I never expected there to be such strange people in Liyue." Ryou sat on a boulder not far away, gazing into the distance, towards Inazuma.

"I wonder how Ayaka and the others are doing now. And our child... should be born in about six months." It is said that people change once they have something to care about, and Suzumiya Yu is no exception.

The thought of becoming a father soon made him smile like an idiot, a sight he never usually saw.

Chapter 183 The Commission Completed

Time flew by, and it was noon. Shen He still showed no signs of waking up, which meant she was really tired. Liang Gongyou didn't wake him up, but just stayed by his side.

No monsters came to disturb them during this time. Occasionally, Yui Suzumiya would see the Chiiwa Army running past on the distant road. Judging from their appearance, the mission to exterminate the monsters was about to end.

This means that Suzumiya Yu and the others will be able to return to Liyue Harbor soon. It's just unknown whether Shen He will stay behind, since clearing out all the monsters is a very time-consuming task that can't be accomplished in just a day or two.

Given Shen He's personality, he'll probably not be satisfied until he's completely wiped out all the monsters in the vicinity. I wonder if Liang Gongyou can persuade her again.

In the afternoon, Shen He, who was fast asleep, finally opened her eyes. She first propped herself up, then stretched, and her alluring posture made Liang Gongyou take a few more glances.

Shen He's figure is impeccable, and the clothes he wears are all very tight, giving people a very sexy feeling, just like Yura. Moreover, the two of them are quite similar in some ways.

"What time is it now?" Shen He glanced at Liang Gongyou.

"In the afternoon, I suppose, but I don't know the exact time," Ryou replied. He was unfamiliar with ancient times and didn't know how to answer.

"Did I...sleep for almost a whole day?" Shen He glanced at the sky outside, then immediately got up. "I need to hurry up and clear out the monsters. If this continues, I won't be able to complete the mission on time."

Hearing this, Ryou was very puzzled. This request clearly had no time limit, so why would she say that she would not be able to complete the request on time?

Does that mean self-disciplined people all set time limits for themselves? That's quite possible.

"The task of exterminating the monsters has actually been completed," said Ryou Miyako. "I encountered a group of Thousand Rock Army soldiers who said that the number of monsters in this area is no longer enough to pose a threat to pedestrians, so there is no need to continue the extermination."

Suzumiya Yu wasn't lying; a pair of Thousand Rock soldiers had indeed found this place not long ago and told him that the quest to exterminate the monsters had ended and that they could return to Liyue Harbor at any time.

"Even if they're no longer a threat, there must still be monsters around, right? If we don't eliminate them all..."

However, just as Suzumiya Yu had guessed, Shin-haku planned to eliminate all the monsters. If he did that, he didn't know how much time it would take, and Suzumiya Yu certainly didn't have that kind of free time.

"That won't be necessary. Monsters can't be eradicated, we can only try to reduce their threat to pedestrians. Besides, aren't you going to integrate into human society? There's no need to waste time on this kind of thing."

In the past two days, Ryou has tried to persuade Shen He countless times. Fortunately, she listens to his advice every time and does not choose to go her own way, otherwise he would have a great headache.

"You're absolutely right, but..."

Just as Shen He was about to say something, he was interrupted by Liang Gongyou.

"There's no 'buts' about it. Let's go. If we go at full speed, we might be able to get back to Liyue Harbor before dark. That way, we won't have to spend the night in the wilderness."

After saying that, Ryou turned and left, which left Shen He with no choice but to follow. Although he was still a little hesitant, he still trusted Ryou completely.

At least until now, the other party hasn't done anything to harm her; otherwise, with her keen insight, she would have seen through Ryou's plans long ago.

......

The two continued their rapid southward journey, their figures flashing across the road like lightning, so fast that ordinary people couldn't even make out their appearance with the naked eye.

However, as they passed Luhua Pond, the two sensed something was amiss.

The surrounding temperature seemed to have dropped somewhat, not due to a natural phenomenon, but rather due to elemental forces.

While ordinary slimes and Slimeflowers can use the power of ice element, they cannot change the temperature. This means that there is a holder of an ice-attribute God's Eye nearby.

Not only that, he also fought with an enemy, to the point that his elemental power affected the surrounding temperature.

Thinking of this, the two stopped in their tracks. Shen He, being an Ice-attribute God's Eye, was able to sense the other's location.

"There." Shen He stretched out his finger and pointed in a direction in the distance. Liang Gongyou looked over and sure enough, she saw the blooming ice elements there.

"Should we go take a look?" Shen He asked. Although there were people fighting there, they might not necessarily need their help, and who knew who it was?

Ryou didn't answer Shin-ho's question immediately, but instead kept her eyes fixed on the direction in the distance.

After thinking for a moment, he finally said, "Let's go take a look."

The two then immediately headed towards their destination, and because they were moving very fast, they arrived there in just a short while.

The closer he got, the lower the temperature became. When he finally saw the face of the Ice Attribute God's Eye holder, he couldn't help but be stunned.

It was a blue-haired boy dressed in white clothing, who was holding a greatsword and confronting a Rockhelm Hilichurl King.

The size difference between the two is obvious at a glance, but being bigger does not necessarily mean victory. Those with the Eye of God can basically defeat King Chuchu on their own.

Aside from characters like Barbara who are purely healers, even dealing with a group of ordinary Hilichurls would be quite troublesome for her, let alone dealing with the Hilichurl King.

Suzumiya Yu quickly recognized the boy as Chongyun, a four-star ice-type greatsword character who appeared in the game and was born with the [Pure Yang Body].

Chongyun was born into a family of exorcists, and his pure yang body gives him the ability to control evil spirits. Therefore, his path of exorcising evil spirits is generally smooth sailing. The only troublesome thing is that evil spirits run away as soon as they see him.

He was quite disappointed because he had never managed to catch any evil spirits. But there was nothing he could do; that was the effect of the Pure Yang Body. Even from a great distance, evil spirits could be sensed.

However, the Pure Yang Body is ineffective against demons, and for Chongyun, continuous combat is not a good thing, because as his body temperature gradually rises, his Pure Yang Body will gradually go out of control.

At that time, he will be unable to remain calm and will become very impulsive. When fighting monsters, impulsiveness often leads to losing one's life.

Therefore, Chongyun usually doesn't let battles last too long, but this time, he has finally met his match.

Chapter 184 Shen He is Chong Yun's aunt?

"That is..." Upon seeing Chongyun, Shenhe froze on the spot, and this reaction naturally caught Liang Gongyou's attention.

"What's wrong? Do you know him?" Liang Gongyou asked. Judging from Shen He's reaction, she must have seen Chongyun before, which meant that the two had known each other before.

"He... should be considered one of the few relatives I have in this world. However, we haven't met many times, only occasionally bumping into each other in the mountains."

“Really? Family.” Ryou nods. He didn’t expect that Shen He and Chong Yun were actually relatives.

After all, Shen He had been cultivating with immortals since childhood. If she still had relatives, she would definitely not have been taken in by the immortals, unless the Chongyun family did not like her and watched her die.

However, Chongyun himself was definitely not included in this. Given his personality, he would probably disregard his parents' objections and insist on taking Shen He in.

"It seems we have no choice but to get involved," Liang Gongyou said. Since Shen He and Chong Yun are relatives, she certainly wouldn't stand idly by.

Moreover, as time went on, they found that Chongyun's attacks became increasingly unskilled, which was the drawback of the Pure Yang Body, making it difficult for people to stay clear-headed.

"The sword imprint stains the ice!"

On the other side, Chongyun, who was fighting the Hilichurl King, slammed his greatsword into the ground, instantly creating a domain that granted anyone within it a short-term ice elemental enchantment.

This enchantment makes the weapon sharper than before, but it doesn't seem to include magical weapons.

The greatsword, enchanted with the power of ice, struck the Hilichurl heavily. Soon, a crack appeared on its rock-hard skin, but that was not enough to kill it.

Chongyun understood this, so when his attack failed, he immediately distanced himself from his opponent.

"Damn it... If this continues, the Pure Yang Body will get out of control." Chongyun felt his body temperature rising rapidly. He knew very well that if this continued, the situation would be very unfavorable for him.

However, the power of the King of the Hills is extremely strong. Even with the Eye of God, he must be careful. Although he is a master of exorcism, talismans are useless against demons.

"Breath of Flame, Fifth Form: Flame Tiger!"

Just then, a loud shout came from afar. Chongyun had just turned his head when he saw a blazing tiger pouncing towards him.

Instinctively, Chongyun immediately dodged to the side, but the fiery tiger's target wasn't him, but the Quel'Thuzad behind him.

The next second, a violent explosion was heard. When Chongyun turned around again, the Hilichurl King had been blasted away by the Infernape and eventually fell into the lake and suffocated to death.

"What's going on?" Chongyun was still a little confused, but then Liang Gongyou and Shen He appeared, which made him immediately realize that these two people had saved him.

"Thank you so much..." Chongyun was about to express his gratitude, but when he realized that the person who came was actually Shen He, he couldn't help but be stunned, "Aunt... Aunt?!"

Clearly, Chongyun had recognized Shenhe, but to Liang Gongyou's surprise, he actually called her "Auntie".

So, Shen He is actually Chongyun's mother's sister? If that's the case, she must be quite old.

Thinking of this, Ryou couldn't help but glance at Shen He. Perhaps because he was so well-preserved, he couldn't tell how old the other person was for a moment, just like Ning Guang.

"Long time no see," Shen He was happy to see her again after so long, but she didn't seem to be good at handling this kind of family reunion. "I remember, your name is... Chongyun, right?"

Well, if they can't even remember Chongyun's name, these two probably haven't even met many times.

"Yes, my name is Chongyun, and my aunt's name is Shenhe, right? My mother mentioned you to me." Chongyun nodded and then brought up his mother.

Suddenly, he felt a surge of heat within his body. Because his attention was focused on Shen He, he momentarily forgot to suppress his pure yang body.

"Oh no, oh no, this can't go on." Chongyun's hands moved quickly over his body, and after a moment, he took out two popsicles that were emitting cold air from his pocket.

He then quickly finished the two popsicles, and his face, which had been burning hot, returned to normal.

"Pure Yang Body, huh? There are so many people in their family with special constitutions."

Shen He is a Lonely Star Calamity, and her nephew Chong Yun is a Pure Yang Body. Liang Gongyou doesn't know whether this is a coincidence or a deliberately made setting.

"By the way, Auntie, Mother heard you're still alive and has been thinking about you. Now that you have the chance, why don't you go and see them?"

Chongyun extended an invitation to Shenhe, and Lianggong You could practically imagine the scene after hearing it.

Shen He, who is not good with words, was caught in the middle by Chongyun's family and asked all sorts of questions, such as how he had been doing lately or how much he missed them.

Suzumiya Yu knew very well that Shinzuru would not be able to handle that situation, but for her, it was a very good opportunity. If she could get through it, she would take the first step into human society.

"No need for that, I don't..."

Just as Shen He was about to refuse Chong Yun, Liang Gongyou, who had anticipated this, spoke first.

"Go ahead, this is a great opportunity for you. Once you become familiar with similar situations, you will have officially integrated into human society."

Ryou's words made Shin-haku take them to heart, because for her, integrating into human society was something she had to do, so even if she encountered difficulties, she would choose to face them head-on.

However... it's really a bit difficult for her to meet Chongyun's family, because she's really not good at handling similar situations.

"I...I understand." In the end, Shen He nodded and accepted Chongyun's invitation.

Just as the three were about to leave, Suzumiya Yu took Chongyun aside by herself.
