Yae from Genshin Impact is my sister

"Of course, as long as I, Paimon, am on the job, any problem can be solved. Look, three portions of perfume, not one less."

Zhongli's praise made Paimon straighten her back. Even though she hadn't done anything, it didn't stop her from accepting the praise. After all, it was pretty much the same whether she accepted praise or Ying accepted it.

"The first one is called 'Hidden Beauty in a Golden House.' Miss Ying'er said it's sweet and dreamy, and it's the little girl's favorite."

Paimon placed the first sachet of perfume before the idol. Looking at the glowing idol, Paimon scratched his head and exclaimed in surprise...

"Could it be that the Rock King Emperor is a little girl? That's amazing. I thought she would be an older sister."

Zhongli stared at the glowing statue, his lips twitching involuntarily. He couldn't understand why his statue thought he liked this. Was it because he had been a little girl before?

"Although the first one glowed, let's still try the remaining two. Maybe the Rock King Emperor will like the remaining two as well."

Paimon took out a second balm, placed it next to the Seven Gods, and began to introduce the balm to everyone.

"This is the second type of perfume, called Shanyin Jincui. It is said to be elegant and luxurious, and a favorite of wealthy young ladies."

Seeing the seven celestial beings remain unresponsive, Zhongli subtly acknowledged the statue's authenticity; he was indeed not overly arrogant. Since the statue showed no reaction, Paimon took out the last type of perfume and placed it beside the seven celestial beings' statue.

"The third type of perfume is called 'Ethereal Fate,' with a light yet long-lasting fragrance, like a hazy mist... something like that, anyway, it's the most popular among mature women."

As she spoke, Paimon looked at the statue with anticipation. In her heart, she felt that the Rock King Emperor would definitely like this balm. However, as time passed, the seven statues in front of her did not react at all.

"Um, could it be that the Seven Gods statues are broken?"

Zhongli stared at the unresponsive statue and fell into deep thought. Logically speaking, the seven-day statue should be reflecting reality, so why would it like the perfume that little girls like?

Unlike Zhongli, who was deep in thought, Su Bai shrank back, as if he had learned something incredible. Ying and Paimon, who were standing to the side, were completely dumbfounded. The Rock King was a little girl? This was earth-shattering news! If they knew this secret, wouldn't they be silenced by the Liyue people?

"Well, I think the Rock King Emperor might not be a little girl."

"As for why he likes the perfume that little girls like, maybe, maybe..."

Seeing that Su Bai couldn't continue the conversation, Zhong Li coughed twice and took over. In order to maintain the image of the Rock King Emperor in everyone's eyes, he had no choice but to state what he considered to be the most likely speculation.

"Perhaps it's because the Geo Archon sees everyone in Liyue as his own child and hopes that his children can grow up healthily, which is why he likes the 'Golden House' perfume."

Just as Zhongli was racking his brains trying to convince the others, inside the Fools' Unrestricted Talisman replica base, the young master carefully walked through the base holding a water blade. Because the base had been attacked by an unknown force, the young master had already ordered his men to move out.

However, the relocation did not mean that the young master would swallow his anger. In order to find out which audacious guy destroyed the base, the young master came alone to investigate and try to find clues left by the enemy.

However, the enemy was clearly very clever. No matter how hard the young master searched, he could not find any clues. This made the young master somewhat suspicious. Could there be a traitor within the Fools' Clan?

Meanwhile, the secret base of the Fools No. 5 also received some uninvited guests. Originally, this base was located deep underground, and the possibility of it being discovered was almost zero. No one knew how these uninvited guests found it. In the short time it took for the Fools guarding the gate to yawn, there was a loud bang, and the gate of the secret base flew off.

"Sister Tuotuo, if we bomb these bad guys, will we really get a lot of Mora?"

“That’s right. That woman named Ningguang said that as long as we destroy the Fatui base in Liyue, she will reward us with a large amount of Mora.”

Ruo Tuo had no doubts about Ning Guang's words. This woman had been praised by Zhong Li, the Rock King Emperor, so she was not worried that Ning Guang would renege on her promise.

Upon hearing that blowing up bad guys would earn you Mora, Klee immediately pulled a bunch of bombs from her little backpack and started throwing them, muttering "Full power!" and "I can blow them all up!"

If the load-bearing walls of this secret base weren't so sturdy, Ruoduo would have been worried that he could have blown it up.

Unlike the commotion caused by Klee, little Qiqi, wielding a blunt sword she'd picked up from who-knows-where, had already begun taking care of the bad guys. Judging by the skill with which she moved, she must have dealt with the treasure-hunting gang quite a few times.

"Enemy attack! Prepare for battle!"

As the alarm sounded, many elite members of the Fools poured out of the secret base. These elites were all smuggled in from the Winter Kingdom and were truly the elite of the elite.

However, their opponents were clearly not normal people. With a light stomp of his foot, the rocks controlled by the rock element crushed the gathered Fools into dust.

Considering that there were two children with her, Rota thoughtfully used stones to block the bloody scene. The fools, crushed into mincemeat, slowly sank into the ground along with the rocks, as if nothing had ever happened.

This led to a strange phenomenon when the Fools sent people to investigate: the number of corpses in the base did not match the actual number; the number of corpses found inside the base was far less than the number of corpses inside the base.

Of course, these are all things for later. At this time, the young master had not yet realized the seriousness of the matter, because some secret bases were so well hidden that the Fools in the secret bases generally would not go out and expose their whereabouts.

Moreover, this mission was extremely important. The Fatui, who had stockpiled a lot of food, hid in their secret base awaiting the order to attack Liyue Harbor. This meant that the Fatui members who were out in the open were completely unaware that their secret base had been wiped out by the three little Rhodes.

Elsewhere, Ying and the others finally found a few high-quality glass lilies, but they were stumped by the singing. According to Zhongli, glass lilies would only bloom more brilliantly when they heard beautiful singing, but none of the people present were good at singing.

"Um, how about I give it a try?"

Ying weakly raised her hand, and Paimon and Su Bai quickly pulled her back. They had finally found a few nice glass lilies, and if Ying opened her mouth and they withered, it would be a real problem.

"Hey, how can you do this? My singing has been recognized by a great musician from another world. These glass lilies will definitely like it."

"Oh? Music from another world? Well, it wouldn't hurt for you to try it, Ying. I'd also like to hear some music from another world."

Zhongli's curiosity emboldened Ying. She cleared her throat, ready to let Zhongli hear her heavenly voice. Su Bai and Paimon exchanged a glance, having already experienced Ying's singing, and silently covered their ears.

Chapter 156 Unexpected Discovery

"At first listen, the singing is not very pleasant to listen to, but upon closer listening, it has a unique charm."

Zhongli stroked his chin as if he were carefully examining something, but the immortal power flowing over his ears made his words completely unconvincing.

“Zhongli, if you didn’t use your immortal power to plug your ears, I think your words would be more convincing.”

Su Bai watched the battle between the Liar and the Deceitful Flower not far away. He felt that he couldn't understand this world anymore. When did the Glass Lily become a Deceitful Flower? He remembered that the Deceitful Flower loved to disguise itself as a Sweet Flower.

At this moment, Ying felt that these two Deceptive Flowers were ungrateful. She had sung a song for them, and not only did they not give her any Deceptive Flower Honey, they even dared to jump out and beat her up.

If it weren't for the fact that the Phantom Flower couldn't speak, Ying would have insisted on making it sing a song today. At this moment, Paimon, who was watching the show, noticed something was wrong with these two Phantom Flowers.

Why do these scam flowers look so angry?

"Could it be because Ying is singing a song from another world instead of a Liyue song that there's a language barrier?"

Paimon, who was almost hit by the ice shards launched by the Liarflower, shuddered and hid behind Su Bai. At the same time, she was also a little puzzled. She had seen plenty of Liarflowers being taught by Ying, but why were these two so fierce?

A petal of a glass lily drifted down to Zhongli on the wind. As if he had discovered something interesting, Zhongli picked up the petal and examined it carefully.

"Although these are not the best glass lilies, these glass lilies used for disguise and deception flowers have been around for too long, and have actually become excellent medicinal materials."

"Once we've dealt with these two deceptive flowers, we can collect the petals of the glass lily. I'm sure Bai Zhu will fetch a good price for that."

Upon hearing Zhongli say that the petals could fetch a good price, Paimon got so excited that she almost rushed to the place where Luminous and Slytherin were fighting to pick up the petals. Unfortunately, the vicious Slytherin attacked her on sight, which prevented Paimon from getting close to the battlefield at all.

"Ying, be careful not to step on the petals, they're all for our future travel expenses."

"Desolate Star!"

A rock made of rock element slammed hard onto the heads of the two Deceptive Flowers. Deceptive Flower nectar flowed down the broken pistils of the Deceptive Flowers and spread all over the ground. For a moment, the entire riverbank was filled with the sweet fragrance of Deceptive Flower nectar.

Ying adjusted her breathing. Normally, dealing with two Liarflowers wouldn't be so troublesome for her. However, now that they were by the river, the water element combined with the Liarflowers' ice element meant that she could be frozen if she wasn't careful. This forced Ying to be on her guard.

"It seems we still need to continue searching for the Glass Lily. Next time we encounter a Glass Lily, Ying, you'd better not use your singing to provoke it. I'm worried that it will just turn into a flower-baiting trick again."

"What? My songs are clearly very beautiful, okay?"

Paimon's criticism displeased Ying. Although her singing voice might not be as good as Barbara's, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to describe it as heavenly compared to the average person.

"Hush, the Fools are coming."

Before Ying could retort, Su Bai suddenly conjured an illusion barrier with his hand, and a transparent barrier enveloped the group. Paimon and Ying immediately stopped arguing.

Two minutes later, three Fools carrying several large bags slowly appeared in front of the crowd. Judging from their appearance, these people were clearly not valued. It would be strange if they were valued for doing such hard labor in the sweltering heat.

"Captain, why are we sending so many raw materials for the Unrestricted Talisman? Didn't we say we've already produced enough?"

"I do know a little bit about this. It's said that our people discovered an abandoned immortal cave in Liyue, and we might need to use the Unrestricted Talisman."

"It's so annoying. I thought I could finally get some rest these few days, but I've been working overtime at the base every day to make the Unrestricted Talisman. I've even got dark circles under my eyes."

The three Fools grumbled as they headed towards the deserted countryside. Inside the illusion, Zhongli and Su Bai both looked rather grim. The abandoned Immortal Cave might be the last thing that immortal left in the world, and they couldn't let the Fools squander it.

“The Fools are getting bolder and bolder.”

"We might gain something by following these fools."

Su Bai's eyes flashed with killing intent. He had always respected the immortal elders who had given their all for Liyue, and the actions of the Fools had undoubtedly ignited his anger.

"This is indeed the case, based on general rational opinion. Perhaps I should also take action."

Zhongli's usual calm expression vanished without a trace, replaced by a slightly gloomy one that revealed his anger. He couldn't bear to touch the things his old friend had left behind, so how could he let the Fools destroy them now?

"Wow, what a terrifying aura."

Paimon shrank back, never expecting that Zhongli, who was usually kind and easy to talk to, could be so terrifying when he got angry. This terrifying sense of oppression was no less than that of Dvalin when he went berserk.

At this moment, Ying realized that Zhongli might be an immortal. She nodded in agreement. Fortunately, she did not have any conflict with the immortals. If she had argued with them, they would have given her a good beating.

With the illusion barrier provided by Su Bai, it made Ying and her group's tracking incredibly easy. Under the influence of the illusion barrier, the three Fatui didn't even notice anything amiss.

Following the three Fools on their journey, Su Bai and his companions unexpectedly arrived at the outer edge of Jueyun Realm. Watching the three Fools searching for the base entrance among several boulders, Su Bai was dumbfounded. He never expected the Fools to be so bold as to build a base right outside Jueyun Realm.

"The most dangerous place is the safest place. The old saying in Liyue is indeed true. Not to mention Su Bai, Ying Du and I passed by this place with a good opportunity, but we didn't find anything wrong at all."

Su Bai was also a little confused. A question lingered in his mind: how dare these Fools build a base here? This is the place where immortals live. Aren't these Fools afraid that immortal will wipe out their base?

"Captain, we can't find the gate! I remember it being behind this rock."

"Yeah, that's right. I've pressed the buttons so many times I've worn them out, but the door just won't open."

"Could it be that the mechanism is broken? I told them not to use stones for the mechanism, but they just wouldn't listen."

The Fool leader, who was clearly the captain, was also puzzled. Had they moved their base? That shouldn't be the case. They had just left the base that morning to carry back some raw materials. Even if they had moved, it couldn't have happened so quickly.

"Are you in some kind of trouble? Perhaps I can help you."

"That's great! Wait, who's there?"

Chapter 157 An Unexpected Encounter with Gan Yu

This voice, unlike the other two, immediately put the captain of the Fools on alert, and the remaining two Fools also drew their weapons and cautiously observed their surroundings.

Unfortunately, with Su Bai's illusion barrier in place, even if they stared wide-eyed, they couldn't see anything amiss. Su Bai, who had been observing for a long time, figured that these three idiots had no idea where the base's entrance was. So he decided to stop hiding it, removed the illusion barrier, and the group appeared before the three fools.

"No wonder the three of you were assigned to do hard labor. With brains like yours, you can't even find the gate to your own base, so you can only do manual labor."

Su Bai's words made the faces of these fools somewhat embarrassed. They couldn't bear to see such a shameful thing being said.

"By the way, is this your first time at this base?"

"That's definitely not it. We're from this base. We were here this morning..."

"Shut up!"

The captain of the Fools yelled at the Fool who had interrupted, "This brainless guy, he'll take anything! Doesn't he know the other party is trying to gather information?"

"This is the first time I've met someone who doesn't know how to open their own front door. They're even dumber than Paimon."
