Genshin Impact: The Beginning of the Wind

How could such a responsible and hardworking deity be like Wendy?

Right?

After temporarily clearing his mind of all the random thoughts, Su Feng quietly looked at the divine cherry blossoms in front of him.

"You are free to make your own plans. Just ask me for this power when you need it."

"This power was originally obtained because of you, so don't worry about what I will do. You can treat it as a transaction, and you will benefit from it."

Perhaps sensing Raiden's hidden worries, Su Feng spoke these words without any pretense, leaving Raiden momentarily at a loss for how to respond.

Is this truly the savior chosen by time? Something seems a little strange.

In the end, Raiden really only had this thought in her mind. She couldn't understand why Ishtar was sure that Su Feng was the savior of Teyvat, but she knew that the one who truly controlled the power of time would never make a wrong choice.

Since everything was planned from the beginning, shouldn't she just go with the flow?

……

The exchange between Su Feng and Raiden Shin didn't last long. Since Raiden Shin had made his decision, Su Feng only needed to do what he was supposed to do when necessary.

So after chatting for a while, Su Feng simply left the roots of the Divine Cherry Tree and returned to the Narukami Shrine on Mount Kage.

However, according to Raiden's plan, he cannot explain the other party's existence to Yae no Miko for the time being.

Only after a period of time, according to her plan, allows Lei Yingdian to gradually emerge from her past nightmares and achieve sufficient growth, will she appear before her former relatives and friends.

This wasn't a problem for Su Feng; it was just something he did on a whim.

Of course, he was also very curious to see the fox's expression when it suddenly realized that its plan to help its old friend escape the nightmare had been perfectly exploited by another.

That sounds quite interesting, doesn't it?

Thinking of this, Su Feng couldn't help but smile. And judging from Lei Dian's personality, perhaps in the near future someone will be able to properly discipline that fox.

Yes, remember to record audio and video when you do it. Maybe the shrine maidens of Narukami Shrine will offer a high price.

Are you thinking about something terrible?

Just as Su Feng was thinking about how to open the eyes of Yae no Miko, Yae no Miko seemed to sense something, twitched her two pink ears and narrowed her eyes to stare at Su Feng.

She seemed to be trying to put pressure on Su Feng in this way, but unfortunately, this pressure, which was quite terrifying to Inazuma, had no effect on Su Feng, who was not afraid of foxes at all.

He glanced disdainfully at the seemingly arrogant Yae no Kamiko in front of him, then revealed a strange smile that made her whole fox-like body tremble with rage.

"Cough cough!"

"The traveler you brought along and her pet are now wanted by the police!"

"Why don't you go and save her?"

Perhaps feeling uneasy about Su Feng's smile, Yae no Miko tried to divert Su Feng's attention after managing a couple of forced smiles.

Don't be fooled by her usual swagger in front of Su Feng; she's practically walking a tightrope.

She only dared to reveal her true nature slightly because of her years of experience in courting death—let alone crossing the line by dancing wildly, she would only do so if she was absolutely safe.

Otherwise, Yae no Miko has plenty of ways to torment people, so why would she choose to joke around in a field like 'Mora' that most people with a little strength wouldn't care about?

To put it bluntly, she had to show that Inazuma's divine relatives were not afraid of Su Feng, but she also couldn't really provoke Su Feng.

The right balance is very difficult to strike.

That's why, after seeing Su Feng's unfathomable smile, she decisively chose to divert his attention, and even wanted Su Feng to simply leave Narukami Shrine.

"Huh? Ying's wanted by the police?"

Although he knew this was Yae no Miko's attention-diversion technique, he was still completely stunned when he heard that Ying was suddenly wanted—did Inazuma not welcome outsiders?

"That's right~ She's wanted for disrupting the Eye Hunt Order~"

"It seems they assisted the rebel soldiers when the Heavenly Territory was arresting the possessor of the Eye of God, so after reporting to the General, they were immediately put on a wanted list throughout Inazuma~"

Although Yae no Miko seemed to be exaggerating the problem, Su Feng still keenly sensed from her words that Ying's current condition was not bad, so after his initial surprise, he returned to his original calm.

"If they were just ordinary people, they wouldn't be able to do anything to her."

Su Feng had some understanding of Ying's strength. As a descendant, Ying possessed considerable power. Although she was currently sealed away for some inexplicable reason, she was still not someone that ordinary people could deal with.

Not to mention that Ying's strength is gradually recovering, and having mastered two elemental powers, she is definitely not someone that ordinary people can deal with.

"Oh my, it seems you have a lot of confidence in your friend?"

Although she said those words, Yae no Miko knew why Su Feng was so at ease.

She had investigated this traveler beforehand, so Yae no Miko knew a lot about Ying, a rising star in the Adventurers' Guild.

Given the current state of the Heavenly Territory, it's impossible for them to do anything to Ying; the gap between the two sides is simply too great.

Moreover, she was still hoping to use Ying to wake Ying up. Even if Tianling Fengxing suddenly unleashed his power and actually did something, Yae no Miko would definitely intervene immediately.

"Actually, I don't mind if you use Ying—I reckon she's almost gotten used to being used, but remember to prepare enough compensation for her."

Having learned from Raiden Shin what Yae no Miko was planning to do, Su Feng wasn't too concerned about what Ying was doing.

After all, this was part of the journey of the Firefly, so he naturally wouldn't interfere too much. However, Su Feng still warned this scoundrel not to go too far.

"Oh dear, little fox, I'm not that kind of person~ Of course I'll give you a generous reward later."

Upon hearing this warning, Yae no Miko narrowed her eyes and smiled like a fox.

No, this guy is actually a fox.

However, she soon changed the subject.

"What price do you think a Heart of God could fetch?"

"In particular, what kind of reward would I get for selling this Heart of God to a doll that's going crazy because it lacks a 'heart'?"

Chapter Eleven can't really be a disaster magnet, can it?

The Heart of God is a treasure that almost nothing in the mortal world can compare to—even if the being who possesses the Heart of God doesn't care about it, any god would surely admit that the Heart of God is by no means a piece of junk that can be discarded at will.

Even Rai, who casually entrusted the Heart of God to Yae no Miko, was well aware of this.

And if one wanted to trade something that was almost impossible to trade in the mortal world, especially since one's desire for the Heart of God had been clearly perceived by others, what terrible price would one have to pay?

Anyway, Su Feng didn't know this.

No one knows what price the Eightfold Divine Child, who holds the Heart of God, wants to ask for, but everyone is certain that it will be extremely difficult to get the Heart of God from her.

Yae no Miko was certain that neither the Scattered Soldiers nor the Winter Empress would be stingy with their offer. Even though she didn't know why the Winter Empress wanted to collect the Heart of God, it didn't stop her from sensing the other party's determination to get it.

Inazuma is currently unable to afford to go to war with Shifu, so after much deliberation, Yae no Miko decides to sell the Heart of God for a good price.

It just so happens that Inazuma is indeed encountering some trouble right now.

"Don't you know where Zhidong's bottom line is?"

Su Feng quickly guessed Yae no Kamiko's doubts, and then he directly reassured the worried fox.

"All you need to know is that the Winter Queen is willing to pay the highest price for the Heart of God."

"In order to obtain the Heart of God from the Rock God, it even signed a contract with the Rock God that would end all contracts."

Su Feng simply told him what he knew, and upon hearing this, Yae no Miko relaxed considerably at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"If that's the case, then that would be perfect. It looks like I've found quite a few cannon fodder."

"Cannon fodder? What's been going on with Inazuma lately? Are you planning to use the Fatui as cannon fodder?"

Su Feng was puzzled when he suddenly heard that Yae no Miko wanted to trick some cannon fodder into using him. Could it be that Inazuma is in some big problem now?

No way, let's not make it seem like he'll encounter some kind of major incident wherever he goes. If this continues, he'll really be seen as a jinx.

Su Feng didn't believe that Yae no Kamiko wanted to borrow troops from the Fools just to deal with the mortals within Inazuma's ranks.

"Hmph, this matter is actually related to you. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have to worry about so many things right now."

"I've been so busy lately that I've started losing hair. I usually put so much effort into maintaining my hair, and now it's falling out in clumps. It breaks my heart."

Upon hearing Su Feng's question, Yae no Miko snorted coldly and immediately shifted the blame onto Su Feng. Su Feng, caught off guard and surprised to be implicated, instinctively wanted to object, after all, he had only been in Inazuma for a short time and hadn't accomplished anything earth-shattering...

No, he did give General Raiden a big blow, and the thunderstorm that was originally surrounding the entire Inazuma was severely weakened because of his confrontation with General Raiden. But even so, would anyone dare to invade Inazuma?

This wouldn't be of much benefit to the other seven kingdoms either, and they would still have to face General Thunder. Who would do something so foolish... Well, maybe there really is one.

As Su Feng thought of something again, an embarrassed expression gradually appeared on his face, because he remembered what might be endangering Inazuma in his current state.

This danger is certainly not the so-called rebels on Umijima Island—it would be a miracle to expect those incompetent rebels to succeed. If it weren't for the fact that a large group of people within Inazuma were not of one mind about the Umijima Island issue, those rebels would probably have been dealt with long ago.

However, the Heavenly Commander wanted to rely on the rebels to gain military merits and funds, and Yae no Miko and others hoped to use the rebels to change the mind of the movie—in short, the rebels on Haiji Island were just a tool, and a tool that everyone wanted to use.

There is only one place that can truly endanger Inazuma—the Dark Outer Sea.

These chaotic places, not yet governed by the current order of Teyvat, are a gathering place for the losers of the Demon God War. Those who have fallen into evil gods are the most deadly danger to Inazuma.

Inazuma has always been harassed by evil gods from the Dark Outer Sea and the monsters they unleash. Inazuma has paid a heavy price to resist the invasion of the Dark Outer Sea.

The seclusion edict not only locked down the other six countries, but for General Raiden, the thunderstorms surrounding Inazuma were also meant to defend against the monsters from the Dark Sea that might invade Inazuma.

Now, the weakening of the thunderstorm and the general's slight defeat of Su Feng have given those evil gods who have been watching Inazuma a sense that an opportunity has come—they, who have been patient for a long time, are naturally starting to stir.

Thus, while Raiden General was recuperating, Yae no Miko, who inexplicably became the sole pillar of Inazuma, had to face yet another great disaster that could endanger the entire Inazuma after hundreds of years.

It was precisely because of this that she conceived the idea of ​​exchanging the Heart of God for a batch of high-level cannon fodder from the Winter Solstice. After obtaining the exact value of the Heart of God from Su Feng, the Eightfold Divine Child became even more determined in this idea.

But before that, it seems she could bring in an even stronger fighter?

After pondering for a while, Yae no Miko tentatively looked at Su Feng with a gaze full of pressure, but Su Feng directly glared back after feeling Yae no Miko's gaze.

"Don't try to pin all the blame on me. If it weren't for your partner's incomprehensible explanations, would we have ended up fighting like this? Would things have turned out this way?"

"She bears at least half the responsibility for this!"

Su Feng admitted that he was the one who injured General Thunder, and that he did indeed consume the thunderstorm surrounding Inazuma. However, he still acted in self-defense. If General Thunder hadn't been so persistent, this would not have happened.

"But you also bear some responsibility; you have to take charge of this matter!"

"As for what reward you want afterward... I wouldn't mind even giving you the shadow as compensation!"

Su Feng's words did make some sense, but it was clear that the current Yae no Kami was not going to reason with him.

After all, reasoning alone won't work against those evil gods who are about to storm in with overwhelming force.
