Genshin Impact: The Recorder of All Things

“Our family used it for only a year or two and it started to turn smoky red.”

"Humans, hurry up! But Gan Yu isn't a Qilin, is he?"

"Half of them are people."

"That's enough!" True Monarch Liuyun Jiefeng interrupted the crowd. The very "prestigious" True Monarch Liuyun Jiefeng spoke, and everyone else quieted down.

"Forget five or ten years, I'd rather have a baby in just one year!"

What kind of people are these? Do I have to wait another five or ten years? Why should I bother with all that effort?

"Ahem, I also think a year is enough, after all, Shen He is a human."

"That is what True Lord Yaoyue Zhuyang said."

He favored Shen He, since humans were more likely to conceive than mythical beasts.

I think it's a walnut!

"Who? Who said that? Ah, it's the Emperor..."

Zhongli took a moment out of his busy schedule to say a few words.

After all, he raised the child himself, and he knows him well. If nothing unexpected happens, he should be with Hu Tao first. Zhong Gui's personality is such that he can't leave his childhood sweetheart for last.

……

"Ah sneeze——"

"What's wrong lately?"

Hu Tao rubbed her nose. "Am I not a god? Why am I sneezing so much lately? Am I catching a cold?"

"I wonder when that guy will come back. He's even stopped preparing meals for me, the head of this hall. This is getting more and more outrageous!"

Walnut was playing with the Heart of the Rock, her lips pursed high.

She's actually been quite annoyed lately. She was finally about to get married when two people suddenly interfered.

As a result, if you form a family now, the number of people in the family instantly doubles.

It was lively, but Hu Tao didn't want this kind of liveliness.

She may seem indifferent on the surface, but how could she possibly not care?

Those two are fellow disciples, will they gang up on me in the future?

What should we do then...?

How about... two against two?

Hu Tao had an idea—something that would eliminate the need to order takeout!

P.S.: Second update. I'm taking a break today, the last day of 2022. I'm adding an extra update from home. Please give me flowers and votes.

Chapter 39 Travel - Liyue Chapter (Chapter 3)

Upon returning to Guiliyuan, both Gan Yu and Shen He wore a wreath woven from glass lilies on their heads.

At the Stone Gate, they tasted the large bowls of tea that were different from those in Yujingtai, a local specialty of Liyue.

I visited Qingce in the north and planted rice seedlings barefoot in the terraced fields. Has the farming season already passed?

Zhong Gui thought for a moment and used the power of the Heart of God to cheat, and soon a batch of rice ripened.

The local elderly people were amazed by his skill and told him not to do it again, because he was just overdrawing the soil's fertility.

Zhong Gui smiled and agreed. The elders didn't say anything more, because they suspected that the three of them were immortals. After all, Gan Yu and Shen He were too good-looking and their temperament was not like that of ordinary people.

Although they didn't know why one of them was wearing the uniform of the Hall of Rebirth, they were all old and shrewd, and they didn't say anything.

As for why they recognized the clothes from the Hall of Rebirth, it can only be explained by the fact that they were getting older and had started preparing for it.

"Qingce Village is mostly populated by the elderly and children now..."

Gan Yu frowned slightly and said in a soft voice.

“Young people all want to go to big cities, and Liyue Harbor is already overcrowded. Qingce Village is Liyue’s granary. Once this group of elderly people leave, there will be no one to farm.”

Zhong Gui reached out and smoothed Gan Yu's furrowed brows, then pulled up the corners of her mouth a little.

"Why are you worried about this? You're not a high-ranking member of Liyue anymore. Besides, we're here to have fun today."

Zhong Gui patted Gan Yu's head and took the opportunity to touch her horn, making her face turn red, so that she stopped thinking about these messy things.

"No...don't touch me..."

"Hey hey hey~"

Shen He, standing to the side, subconsciously reached out and touched the other corner.

She had wanted to touch this thing for a long time. When they were in her master's cave, her master always told her that she needed someone to touch the corner of her head to fall asleep.

She kept wondering what that corner felt like to the touch, and whether it was hard or not.

It's a bit hard, and a bit warm—it's hard to describe the feeling.

The three set off again, crossing the stone gate and passing through the salt in the ground, and arrived at the snow mountain.

This part of the snow mountain is theoretically still within Liyue territory, and since the group doesn't plan to leave the country, they stop there.

The snow and wind on the mountain had no effect on the three people who were dressed in thin clothes. Zhong Gui was a given, and Gan Yu and Shen He, aside from their physical constitution, were also the possessors of the Ice God's Eye, so they were not afraid of such severe cold.

Come to think of it, the coldness value in the game in my previous life was unreasonable.

Yura could go to the snow mountain to take an ice bath, so why did she freeze to death?

Can't the Fire-attribute Eye of God generate heat?

Is Chongyun's pure Yang body fake?

That's unreasonable, isn't it?

Whether it's reasonable or not is no longer Zhong Gui's concern; the cold weather can't bother him anyway.

"Hey ladies, take this!"

With a snap, two snowballs hit Gan Yu and Shen He directly.

"Shall we have a snowball fight?" Shen He rolled up a snowball. She and Zhong Gui used to play in Jueyunjian when she was a child, and it was a memory she could never forget.

whoosh-

fight back!

Gan Yu, who had never played these games before, watched the two play quietly until she was drawn into the "battlefield".

"what!"

As the sun set, the three of them started a chaotic battle, and the mountains were filled with joyful laughter.

……

Hall of Rebirth.

Walnut was restless, scratching here and picking at there.

Why do I feel itchy all over?

"I haven't felt well all day. Where did that damn clock go? I might be sick!"

After a passing maid confirmed that the head of the hall was still full of energy and showed no signs of illness, the master confirmed that he was still full of energy.

……

Could you approve two more documents?

Ningguang stopped writing, stretched, and then spoke to Keqing, who kept getting up to go outside and take a look.

Keqing: "..."

Ke Qing paused for a moment, said nothing, and went back to look at a few more documents.

"The sun is setting, it's time to go home."

Ningguang stood up, swaying her hips as she walked to Keqing's table.

"Want to grab a bite to eat together?"

"..."

"Don't look so gloomy. This has nothing to do with you, and it's not something you can decide."

In truth, Ningguang knew that whether Gan Yu stayed or not, whether she was present or not, was irrelevant.

They are said to be the overseers of the Seven Stars and the bridge between the Emperor and the immortals, but if the Emperor really wants Liyue to be governed by humans, then these can be replaced.

But sometimes things don't turn out that way.

Just like Ningguang, who hopes Ganyu will return, she fears that one day Liyue will encounter great calamity. If Ganyu is there, she will know that the immortals are here, the Emperor is here, and they have not abandoned Liyue, but have simply handed Liyue over to humans to govern.

But Gan Yu has left, and the immortals have all relinquished their power. She worries that one day the Emperor and the immortals will no longer care about Liyue. Although the possibility is minuscule, as the star of Tianquan, she must prepare contingency plans in advance.

Ke Qing nodded; she understood this principle as well.

Actually, Liyue is a place where both gods and humans heal; that's not what she's worried about.

She had some reservations about "Liyue, where the Emperor makes decisions on a whim".
