Is this... being rescued?
Jiang Ning gasped for breath; the threat of death and the sudden exhaustion after the sprint were definitely not pleasant.
After regaining his senses, Jiang Ning turned around and saw a scene he would remember for the rest of his life.
She was a girl with an ethereal, otherworldly aura.
Her delicate and flawless face, exuding a cool and aloof charm, was fair and radiant. She had long, thick, snow-white hair, tied with red ribbons at the ends and mid-lengths.
She was tall and curvaceous, seemingly the same size as the ice golem from before.
She was wearing a black, tight-fitting leather bodysuit, but there were diamond-shaped cutouts on the sides of her waist, and her lower abdomen was covered with black stockings.
A white cloth with a honeysuckle pattern covered its chest, but it was pushed up by the towering slime.
The red rope binding her figure didn't appear vulgar, but rather added a touch of ascetic, fairy-like charm.
She held a long spear in one hand, and a talisman between her index and middle fingers in the other.
Bathed in moonlight, the scene was dreamlike and enchanting, leaving Jiang Ning momentarily stunned.
Seemingly sensing Jiang Ning's gaze, her already expressionless face grew even colder. As if confirming that Jiang Ning was alright, she turned and left.
"Um... thank you... where am I? And who are you?"
Jiang Ning quickly spoke up.
The girl seemed oblivious, continuing to walk slowly up the mountain in her high heels.
Jiang Ning had no choice but to follow.
They followed each other for about five or six minutes without saying a word.
Finally, Jiang Ning couldn't hold back any longer and asked again:
"Um, may I know the name of my savior?"
The girl remained silent.
Just as Jiang Ning was about to ask something, another voice seemed to come from above:
"Honestly, you child, this is your first time going down the mountain to rescue someone, and this is how you react?"
The girl stopped in her tracks upon hearing this voice, looked up, and said:
"master."
Jiang Ning also quickly looked up.
Then he froze.
It was a crane whose body was composed of cyan, white and light blue, and there seemed to be light red makeup under its eyes, like eyeshadow.
Although it looks similar to other cranes in its standing posture, it always gives people a sense of etherealness and a master standing with his hands behind his back.
And... it was this crane that just spoke, right?!
Jiang Ning seemed stunned, muttering to himself, "This, this crane can talk? It must be a celestial crane..."
"How dare you! What crane? But you are half right. My name is True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng. I will let it go since you are just a mortal."
That bird... or rather, it was True Lord Liuyun who spoke again.
Jiang Ning quickly said, "Greetings, Immortal..."
However, True Lord Liuyun Borrowed Wind ignored Jiang Ning and instead addressed the young girl:
"I see you have mastered your skills and wanted to let you experience the mortal world. Saving people was a good opportunity for that. After you saved them, you left immediately?"
"Then what's the point of all this? You child, you'll eventually have to go down the mountain, how can I rest easy with you like this..."
Jiang Ning looked at the crane and inexplicably felt that this crane seemed a bit... talkative?
No, I can't think like that. This is the master of my savior, and also an immortal. I can't be disrespectful to my immortal master.
"Master," the girl said, seemingly annoyed by the nagging, "I have already followed your orders to save people."
Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun continued, "Are you sure this place is safe? Are there any other demons? What if they come out again and hurt someone?"
Although what he said made a lot of sense, Jiang Ning still felt that the crane was just trying to save face by arguing in front of his disciple.
“Master, he and I are not related, and I have no obligation to save him again and again,” the girl said.
For the next ten minutes or so, no matter what True Lord Liuyun said, the girl always found a way to respond.
This seemed to annoy the immortal.
"Hmph, fine... But hey kid over there, are you from Liyue Harbor?"
It seems that Lord Liuyun Jiefeng intends to send his disciple down the mountain into the mortal world, so he thought he should first ask about the current situation of Liyue Harbor.
Liyue Harbor?
Jiang Ning was somewhat bewildered. He only knew that Liyue was a country in Genshin Impact, and Liyue Harbor was the country's port?
"You don't know Liyue Harbor?"
Now it was Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun's turn to be puzzled. Liyue Harbor, surely every Teyvat should know about it? As a place where thousands of merchants gather and wealth accumulates, even a three-year-old child should know about it.
"Um, actually, I'm not from this world..."
Jiang Ning explained his origins, including his background and the situation in his previous world, but omitted the part about playing games.
Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun said, "So, you are a traveler from outside Teyvat? You just woke up here after a nap? But judging from your appearance, you should be an ordinary person."
Jiang Ning was also on the verge of tears: "I don't know how I came to be here either."
Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun seemed to be deep in thought. He found it quite interesting that an ordinary person could travel through time.
Moreover, the world this person is talking about is somewhat similar to Liyue today.
As a researcher, Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhen Jun's curiosity was piqued.
She looked up at Jiang Ning with her bird-like eyes: "It's getting late tonight. You won't be able to find a place to stay if you go down the mountain now. Come up the mountain with me. If you encounter any more demons and die, then it will be my fault."
"The people my disciple managed to save can't die like this. Of course, I am also somewhat interested in the country you mentioned."
The girl glanced at her master. Was he starting to be stubborn again?
Actually, you're probably interested in what he's talking about, right? Why make such a big deal out of it?
The girl glanced at the boy she had saved again, but didn't think much of it.
Perhaps, once his curiosity was satisfied, his master would send him down the mountain.
This is not something that a young girl should pay attention to.
Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun spread his wings and soared into the sky, while wind also manifested around Jiang Ning.
Then Jiang Ning led the way and flew directly to the mountaintop.
"Yeah!"
Jiang Ning looked down at the sheer cliffs and gasped in surprise.
"What's so scary about that..." the immortal seemed to mutter.
Then, Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun said, "Shen He, since you're talking back to your master like this, you can go up the mountain by yourself. You're not allowed to use elemental power or immortal techniques. Run up the mountain."
The girl called Shen He did not respond, but silently ran quickly up the mountain.
In the midst of Jiang Ning's panic, a voice seemed to emerge from deep within his mind.
[Ding, system loading complete, host identity confirmed, binding in progress...]
[Binding successful. Villain System, at your service.]
But Jiangning doesn't have time to deal with it now.
Because of the high altitude, being swept up by the wind, and below is a sheer cliff...
If Jiang Ning hadn't been mentally strong, she would have fainted long ago.
2. The Cat Head system's inherited weakness.
Jiang Ning was extremely thirsty after being asked by the True Lord Liuyun to tell the story all night.
Finally, he waited until his voice was a little hoarse before he let himself go.
However, some of his words seemed to have been quite enlightening for Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun.
For example, things like waterwheels, faucets, and electricity.
In short, True Lord Liuyun returned to his cave dwelling with satisfaction, and no one knew what he was doing next.
There was no place to sleep in the immortal's cave on the mountain, so Jiang Ning could only sleep fully clothed. Fortunately, a heater and a blanket flew out of the immortal's cave, which saved Jiang Ning from the embarrassment of freezing to death.
Wrapped in a blanket with a small stove in front of him, Jiang Ning finally had the leisure to look around curiously.
The Immortal's Cave is located on the mountaintop, surrounded by ancient trees that look very old.
In the center was a lotus pond, which contained many oilfish that I had never seen before.
There is a stone table and several stone benches by the pool.
Jiang Ning huddled there, suddenly remembering that he seemed to have a... system?
Jiang Ning's eyes lit up. Could it be that he would soon be able to rise to prominence, fight demons and gods, and kick the abyss?
Who knows, with a sudden burst of energy, he might just find a bunch of beautiful wives throwing themselves at him.
The teenager's hormones were still very strong.
"System, are you there?"
Jiang Ning asked cautiously.
[Yes, yes, host, hello! This is the Villain System, at your service!]
It's a vibrant, energetic girl's voice, somewhat playful and lively.
"A villain system?" Jiang Ning was taken aback.
