I, the leader of the esoteric sect, am doing great things in the infinite world!

"Thank you." Nian, who was eating hotpot, swallowed the meat slices in his mouth and thanked him indistinctly, "Next time I make a movie, I'll ask you to be the lead."

Theresa shrugged noncommittally. She wasn't interested in the trashy movies made years ago, but she'd still enjoy a bit of fun.

She snapped her fingers.

......

The Deep One is menacing and imposing, but he's not as fast as you. Now, Walnut attacks the Deep One! What will she use to attack?

"Charge! Chop him to pieces!" Hu Tao transformed into a bloodthirsty Autobot, especially in a game where there was no need to back down. "I'm going to turn him into boiled blackback bass!"

Li Lin explained as he threw the dice.

[Hu Tao drew a cleaver from behind and charged forward (throwing a small amount). The floor of the Yu Tea House, slippery from the Oser cultist's spell, caused her to lose her balance. The cleaver grazed the Deep One, polishing his scales.]

"I get it, it must be because of Keqing, otherwise why would I have thrown out a little bit?" Hu Tao decisively shifted the blame.

"Hey, how can you slander someone's innocence out of thin air? Shouldn't we be suspecting a cover-up?"

The innocent carver, caught in the crossfire, swung her twin ponytails to launch an offline attack on Hu Tao. Unfortunately for Hu Tao, who also had twin ponytails, she retaliated in kind.

The two swung their pigtails like electric fans, and soon their hair became tangled together.

Yanfei had no choice but to untangle their hair, but by the time she finished, she had forgotten what she was supposed to do. So she gave up and said, "Then... then I'll go around Hu Tao and attack the fishman with my fists."

[Yanfei clenched her fist in an attack stance, dodging the slippery ground (throwing a little), and swung her fist. However, because she was too cautious, her fist lacked power, like a woman's, failing to form a sandwich between two pieces of cheese. It looked more like she was giving the Deep One a free hug.]

"Great opportunity!" Keqing exclaimed excitedly. "I brought a shovel from the construction site. I'm going to take this chance to aim at the merman's head and launch a heavy attack!"

Keqing swung the shovel like a celestial fire sword, smashing it heavily towards the Deep One's head (throwing it slightly off-target). She used too much force; the shovel grazed the Deep One's head and struck Yanfei on the forehead.

Li Lin suggested rolling a damage die here, and he rolled one again.

Keqing's shovel gave Yanfei a new hairstyle; now she looks more like a rapper.

“Pursue them,” Zhongli said succinctly. “Use the benches in the teahouse.”

Zhongli followed, grabbing a nearby bench and attempting to strike the Deep One's lower body (throwing it slightly). The bench hit Yanfei's back, but fortunately, Zhongli was too weak to do so due to hunger, and it felt like he was just tickling her.

After four major failures in a row, everyone began to reflect on the meaning of life.

The crucial point is that Li Lin really didn't do anything wrong, which makes it even more ridiculous.

After four rounds of attacks from his teammates, it was the boss's turn to attack, having transformed into a Deep One.

The Deep One grinned lewdly. He seized the opportunity to kick out, intending to break free from Yan Fei's grasp, while simultaneously turning and throwing a punch at Ke Qing behind him (throwing a small amount). Due to the unusually slippery ground caused by the spell cast by Oser's followers, he slipped and fell to the ground. Fortunately, he turned in time and caught Ke Qing with his stomach.

"Wow, what a tense, exciting, and spectacular battle!" Ke Qing yawned.

"No, actually I'm more interested in seeing what kind of tricks you guys can pull off." Despite being relentlessly teased by her teammates, Yan Fei said cheerfully, "After all, it's all minor, and no one's seriously injured."

"Damn it, if that's how it is, then there's nothing we can do." Hu Tao, the only one who didn't attack her teammate, shouted, "A wise man submits to circumstances; I'm going to join my grandfather!"

"What?" Ke Qing wondered if she had misheard.

The understanding Li Lin explained in time: "Hu Tao's grandfather is Oser, who was imprisoned under the Gu Yun Pavilion. She is a descendant of the Demon God, so she has now betrayed us."

Ke Qing was shocked: "How did you let her pass with such an outrageous background?!"

“I didn’t want to either, but Hu Tao promised me that if I went to the funeral parlor, I could get two coffins for free.”

Li Lin revealed his ugly face, corrupted by capital.

"Is there any need to eat these sugar-coated bullets?" Shen He, who hadn't spoken for many chapters, couldn't hold back any longer and suddenly started complaining.

196 Look at this mess that happened in Guigu Bahuang, tsk tsk

That's what they say, but after all, Grandpa Hu Tao isn't the real Oser. As the losers of the Demon God War, the people of Liyue can usually stand on the shoulders of the Geo Archon and point fingers at them.

"I'm going to kill them with the murlocs!" Hu Tao shouted.

"Just don't roll a single point," Yan Fei said ruthlessly, undermining his plan.

Amidst the chaos, it was revealed that the original Liyue Little Chef was actually a descendant of Oser! In the blink of an eye, the situation took a sharp turn for the worse! The Liyue Justice League is in dire straits; their successive defeats have dampened their spirits! Over there, Kurumi brandishes her cleaver! Quick, quick, quick! She and the fish-men pounce on the nearest Keqing.

"Even the top storyteller at Heyu Teahouse isn't this passionate."

Amidst their lighthearted conversation, Li Lin tossed out a small amount.

[Eek! Hu Tao's cleaver aimed at Ke Qing, but as she turned, she slipped on the wet ground again, the blade striking empty air, and the cleaver slipped from her hand!]

"Counterattack! I'm going to counterattack!" Ke Qing shouted.

Seeing this opportune moment, Keqing shouted and chopped up the beef offal, brandishing her iron shovel with great force (throwing it a little), the shovel flashing past Hu Tao's forehead, swatting away a fly that was about to land on her head.

[The Deep One boss wasn't to be outdone, slamming both palms heavily onto the ground. If he landed, these reckless fools would pay the price (throws a small amount). However, the fish-man boss used too much force, his lower limbs couldn't bear the weight, and he ended up with high-level paraplegia.]

So far in this battle, the greatest damage has actually been caused by the Deep Ones themselves.

"That's not right." Keqing suddenly realized, "Osel has already invaded Liyue Harbor, shouldn't the Geo Archon react?"

Zhongli silently put down her teacup.

If Li Lin hadn't done that, he might have had a different opinion, but now Morax has to think it over again—would it be better to hand over the power of Rock Harbor to another trustworthy person instead of handing it over to the Liyue Seven Stars Eight Gates?

For example, the vortex demon god Oser right in front of us.

When such a natural disaster strikes, will Liyue be able to stand on its own two feet under such a threat?

"Yes."

Li Lin's eyes lit up.

Just then, a handsome and dashing man slowly emerged from the dark street. In this world, demons and gods have risen together. Though I have no intention of vying for power, I know the suffering of the common people...

Zhong Li's lips twitched, and he closed his eyes in pain.

In short, it turned out that Master Li had a divine intervention, with the Geo Archon himself descending to earth to wipe out the Oser followers who were ravaging Liyue and the Oser who were about to emerge. Hu Tao also reformed and returned to a harmonious and beautiful society. Everything was gratifying.

"That's so much fun! I think we can play again next time," Hu Tao clapped her hands excitedly.

Keqing hesitated, though she hadn't played this kind of game much, she had at least watched it. Wasn't this kind of game, where the host personally stepped in to beat people up, quite different from the one hosted by Ningguang...?

After tidying up the chess pieces and dice, Yan Fei and Shen He finally had a chance to talk to Li Lin about serious business: Grandma Ping had arrived.

“Grandma Ping went to Biyue Plain in the north a while ago. There are a few mutated Deceptive Flowers growing on the earth’s veins there. If left unattended, they can easily proliferate. She only came back last night,” Yan Fei said.

The Lil's Flower is a monster native to the continent of Teyvat. It's like a pitcher plant that can run away. Lil's Flowers usually disguise themselves as small plants like mint or sweetflowers. Unless you're impulsively pulling them out, you won't be attacked by them.

The problem is that they happened to grow on the earth's veins, and the surging power within the veins and the memories of their ancestors became excellent nourishment for them. In a short time, they grew to a size similar to ordinary trees.

At this point, even experienced adventurers can't handle the Deception Flower. Only well-trained Thousand Rock Army soldiers or those with the Eye of God's unique skills can defeat it. And to completely eradicate it, even more effort will be required.

Of course, as an immortal, Granny Ping had a much easier time dealing with these matters.

“Let’s go now. Granny Ping has great admiration for you, the savior of suffering, Master Li,” Yan Fei said.

Li Lin raised his hand to indicate that he needed to pause.

"Is there a problem?" Yan Fei scratched her head.

"I haven't eaten," Li Lin told the truth.

After seeing Yan Fei and Shen He off to the law firm, Hu Tao and Ke Qing also went home. Only Zhong Li accompanied Master Li to Wanmintang for dinner.

Heavens have mercy, everyone else who transmigrates to Genshin Impact has endless girls to date, and stealing their master's stockings and Yanfei's underwear is commonplace. How come I'm the only one acting as a righteous person in Liyue? And the person by my side isn't a lover, but Zhongli, that stone.

Even Wendy next door, who's just lounging around, has white stockings.

"Zhongli, I hate you because you're a stone!" Li Lin suddenly turned around while walking down the street and said to Zhongli with heartfelt pain.

Zhong Li had become accustomed to Li Lin's occasional erratic behavior.

“I was originally a stone,” Zhongli replied.

There's a food street between Chihuyan and Feiyunpo, and it's especially bustling with people at this time of day.

A cool breeze carried a faint fragrance, and the ginkgo leaves on both sides of the road rustled. Soon, dusk began to fall, and white birds flew across the horizon like pearls with broken strings. The setting sun shone on the mirrors of the houses, shattering into tens of thousands of small golden pieces. In the distance, incense smoke wafted from the Salvation Temple, and the sounds of chanting and wooden fish drums filled the air.

"In times of great calamity, compassion extends, the gate of sweet dew shines upon the world, auspicious purple and gold emanates, the wondrous true form appears. Great sage, great compassion, great vow, boundless in the ten directions, universally saving all sentient beings. Rescuing from suffering and calamity, responding to cries and manifesting, the savior of suffering and distress, the True Man Li."

Drawn by the aroma, Li Lin went to a stall and bought a skewer of grilled coral. The sweet and delicious coral sizzled as it was grilled with caramel and fish oil, spreading its sweet fragrance far and wide.

This roasted coral is probably a specialty of the Genshin Impact world, since Li Lin has traveled through several worlds and has never seen anyone eating coral.

Zhongli didn't go to eat the grilled coral. He stood with his hands behind his back in front of the Jiuku Temple, looking at the flourishing incense, his eyes deep and unfathomable.

"Did you know? There's actually another immortal in Liyue, she's the true savior from suffering..."

"Alright, stop talking." Li Lin shuddered. "I'm already at the full lifespan of 77."

This encroachment and overriding of faith is actually a manifestation of history. The original true god of the hearth, Maxius, passed away after his intelligence and power declined, but the Liyue people of later generations bestowed his name and authority upon Morax, the Geo Archon.

God of Wealth, God of History, God of Pioneers, God of War, God of the Hearth, God of Precious Metals... So many demons, all given the same name "Morax," could he possibly be all of these gods?

The scholars of the Sumeru Academy, who understood history and recorded the development of civilization, never raised any objection to this claim.

In Mondstadt, the name of the Rock King is often associated with that secret pact with the wind at its back. Li Lin knows that it was Barbatos's prank, but for Mondstadt now, the name of the Rock King always carries a hint of mockery.

After quickly finishing the roasted coral, Li Lin pushed open the door of Wanmintang.

197 I ate two bowls

"Wabi Wabi Wabi Babu?" A mysterious creature greeted Li Lin and Zhong Li at the door.
