Honkai Impact 5 vs. Genshin Impact, I'll provide the venue.

Su Ze: “…”

That's no fun chatting like that.

An awkward atmosphere filled the air, and even someone as eloquent as Su Ze didn't know how to continue.

"Um... let's not talk about this anymore." Finally, Xianyun broke the silence: "Let's take a look at Shen He's fate."

"Yes, yes, business is more important."

Su Ze quickly agreed, then looked at Shen He.

"It's been changed!"

He was puzzled. Shen He's fate had clearly changed, so why did Xianyun say it was still the same?

"Um... I don't know either. You might as well ask Shen He."

"it is good."

If Xianyun doesn't know either, then the only way to find a breakthrough is with Shenhe.

"Miss Shen He, what have you been doing lately? Do you still have the urge to kill?"

"some."

Shen He nodded.

"When?"

"In the game yesterday."

what?

Su Ze didn't understand. What did yesterday's game have to do with you?

Could it be that seeing those strange things reminded Shen He of his childhood experiences, which gave him the urge to kill?

"Can you tell me more about it?"

"Okay." Shen He nodded blankly and replied, "It happened the moment Su Chang hugged you."

silence.

Su Ze opened his mouth for a long time, but couldn't utter a single word.

How did this get involved with me?

He remembered that in the game, after Su Chang returned, she jumped onto him, but what does that have to do with you?

Could it be?

A hypothesis began to swirl in my mind.

Shen He likes me?

People often say that one of the three great illusions in life is that so-and-so should like me, but Su Ze felt that this was very true at the moment.

Although he's a bit of a straight man, he's not stupid.

But Shenhe is being too direct, how am I supposed to put this?

Looking at Xianyun, the latter awkwardly turned his head away.

"You know that Shen He's fate has been changed, right?"

"Ahem...This immortal...This immortal does indeed know."

Seeing that he couldn't hide it any longer, Xianyun admitted it directly: "I'm planning to be a matchmaker for my apprentice. Do you dare?"

"Ugh..."

Su Ze sighed. He already had Bronya at home, and now another one was coming?

Although I felt a little bit of satisfaction, I still felt sorry for Bronya.

"Let me think about it."

Su Ze had never encountered this situation before and didn't know how to handle it. He could only go back and think about it slowly, and he couldn't just agree on a whim.

"Alright, I'll wait a few days." As long as he's willing to consider it, Xianyun nodded on the spot: "Don't think that my Shenhe is unwanted. As long as I spread the word, a large number of talented young men will come. Do you believe me?"

"Of course I believe that."

Su Ze nodded. How could he not believe it? Although she was a country girl at heart, she was a disciple of the immortals and a goddess of Liyue. Her popularity was naturally top-notch.

But when she discovered that Shen He actually liked her, why was she so happy?

After chatting with the two men for a while, Su Ze prepared to get up and say goodbye.

He needs to go back and think carefully about what to do.

Back home, Su Ze unexpectedly met a stranger: Cocolia.

Upon seeing Su Ze return, Cocolia, who had been waiting in the living room, stood up and bowed to him.

She used to be Prini, so she wouldn't dare to be presumptuous in front of Suze.

"Um...you don't have to do that..."

Su Ze waved his hand: "You are a player now too, I will treat you fairly."

"Thank you."

Cocolia thanked him and then sat down opposite Suze.

"What do you want to see me for?"

"Have."

Cocolia nodded, then, as if she had made a huge decision, turned to look at Suze: "Lord Suze, what do you think of Bronya?"

"Ah...that's good, what's wrong?"

“Huh~~~!”

Taking a few deep breaths, Cocolia didn't flinch this time. She looked intently into Su Ze's eyes and asked, "You went to Liyue today, probably because of Shen He, right?"

"Uh...yes."

My heart skipped a beat. Could it be that my mother-in-law had come to confront me?

"As expected." Cocolia muttered to herself, then said, "I hope you will grant me one request, otherwise I will absolutely not allow Bronya to associate with you again."

"what for?"

Su Ze's eyes narrowed. What are you threatening me for?

In fact, Su Ze is the type who responds better to gentle persuasion than force. If you talk to him nicely, he'll reason with you. If you're unreasonable, he'll resort to violence.

For a moment, the surrounding air became oppressive.

Cocolia sensed that if she made even the slightest move, or if she displeased Suze, she would immediately have to return to the Demon Realm to become Prini.

But for Bronya's sake, she had to say... given Bronya's personality, if she didn't stand up for herself, she might not even get a share of soup for her daughter in the future.

“I don’t care how many more people you have after that, but Bronya must be your legal wife, otherwise… it’s all off the table.”

"Forehead..."

His imposing manner crumbled instantly, and Su Ze's expression changed from unfriendly to embarrassed: "What are you talking about? Those things won't happen."

"Whether it's true or not, you know for sure."

"So, sir... will you agree?"

"I didn't do any of those things... Bronya is my wife, don't worry."

Hearing Su Ze's sophistry, Cocolia rolled her eyes. "Do you think I'm like Bronya, who doesn't care about anything?"

She had noticed something was off about some players long ago, and she immediately realized what was going on after Xianyun asked Su Ze to go to Liyue.

That's why he came to negotiate behind Bronya's back.

But she also knew that trying to control Su Ze was wishful thinking, but giving Bronya an identity was still an option.

To use a line from the TV series she and Shiluwa recently watched, "The Legend of Jia Huan".

That is...

If I am not, then you will all be concubines in the end!

It seems watching more TV dramas is a good thing. She's secretly thinking about whether to ask Su Ze to produce more dramas so she can learn from them.

Chapter 222 Sky Island Conquest, Let's Get Started!

In the evening, Suze saw Cocolia out the door.

"No need to see me off, I can go back by myself."

Cocolia waved to Su Ze and walked towards Crepper Castle, her demeanor befitting a mother-in-law.

Upon entering, seeing Bronya still working, he immediately complained, "Why haven't you rested yet?"

"Mother, I have something to attend to, I'll be right back."

Cocolia stepped forward and pulled Bronya up, saying earnestly, "Bronya, this is a crucial moment, we can't let our guard down."

"Ok, I know."

Belloberg is in dire need of rebuilding, isn't this a crucial moment?

"What do you know? I'm talking about Su Ze!"

"Su Ze, what's wrong with him?"

"He..."

Cocolia leaned close to her ear and whispered about what had happened that day.

"Ah~~~ How could you..."

Bronya was at a loss for words. Her mother was already keeping an eye on her man, so why was she pushing him away?

"Can you control him?"

"this..."

She couldn't control Su Ze, but the thought that Su Ze had relationships with other people made her feel uneasy.

"Bronya, let me tell you something..."

Cocolia immediately began to analyze the situation for Bronya, who found it increasingly convincing as she listened.

She couldn't control Su Ze at all, and there were definitely people outside who coveted Su Ze, so she might as well occupy a good position in Su Ze's heart from the beginning.

"Then... Mother, what should I do?"

"You're like this..."

Cocolia began teaching Bronya her tricks, and at first Bronya thought they made sense, but the more she listened, the more something seemed off.

"Remember, the most important thing is the child. Once you have a child, your position will be secure."

"And you also want to kill other people's children."

"Wait a minute." Bronya quickly interrupted, realizing her mother's words were getting increasingly off-topic: "Mother, where exactly did you learn this?"

"The Legend of Jia Huan... What happened... Don't underestimate this TV series, there's a lot of experience in it."

"I have something to do, you should go back and rest first."

Bronya's face darkened completely, and she practically pushed Cocolia out of the room. Good heavens, had her mother gone mad, teaching her palace intrigue?

"No, I have to talk to Su Ze and tell him not to take out all sorts of random things."

She knew that Su Ze had recommended this book, "The Biography of Jia Huan," to Xiluwa, but she never expected her mother to use it as a teaching tool.

No, I need to find something for Mom to do. If she's idle all day, she might cause a big commotion.

three days later.

Su Ze is on a floating island; this is the game.

There's no way around it; if she doesn't start the game, the players will nag her to death. Almost every time she opens her livestream, it's just them urging her to start the game.

He doesn't talk about it himself, so let him do it.
