Genshin Impact: The Recorder of All Things

This reminded him of Maxius, the god of the hearth.

"I wanted to buy osmanthus blossoms and share wine, but alas..."

"Wine." Wendy reached out and poured Zhongli a glass of apple wine, one of his treasured possessions.

Zhongli smiled calmly; he had waited five hundred years for this cup of wine…

The wind has returned to Liyue.

Even if there aren't many left, old friends are still here.

"please."

Zhong Li raised his glass, clinked it with Wendy and Zhong Tao, and finally raised it to Ying and Nasida on the other side.

Shen He took a glass of juice and fed Naxida a sip.

Naxida didn't lift a finger the whole time, relying solely on Shenhe to feed her; the scene was very harmonious.

Elhesen, Seno: "..."

They've really learned something new today; this is the biggest scene they've ever witnessed in their lives.

The scale of the event depends on the people on it; the ones on the field now are gods.

Are gods in other countries all like this?

It seems I overestimated them before... no, I didn't expect the gods to be so approachable.

They thought their little Lucky Grass King was special, and before coming to Liyue, they were afraid that the little Lucky Grass King would be looked down upon by the gods of other countries.

This now seems to be the normal state of the gods.

What Elhesen didn't expect was Zhong Gui's identity.

I already thought he wasn't just any ordinary divine being, but I never imagined he was the Crown Prince of Liyue, and the one who had already ascended the throne.

The people of Liyue are unaware that their Geo Archon has been replaced, but this secret has been discovered by us, the people of Sumeru.

El-Hysen didn't know what to say.

Elhesen hadn't expected that the gods of the four countries had such a good relationship, and that the four gods were almost all the first generation of gods.

As long as the gods are alive, there can be no war between nations.

At most, it's just competition and friction in the economic and cultural spheres.

And now, regarding the situation in the four countries... Elhesen looked at Zhong Gui, who was serving Hu Tao a plate.

Perhaps this man can make a decision about the four countries with a single word?

Zhong Gui knew he would definitely refute his idea; there were no four countries, only two and a half.

Zhong Gui's first destination was Mondstadt, but he didn't make contact with the Knights of Favonius there and wasn't familiar with the upper echelons of Mondstadt.

This is because of Wendy; gods in other countries are all connected to temples, but Wendy is completely detached.

So Zhong Gui came into contact with some adventurers and free agents in Wendy and Mondstadt.

The highest level among them was Lord Diluc, who had left the Knights of Favonius.

I always have to visit the Dawn Winery when I'm passing by.

So Mondstadt's upper echelons only knew of Zhong Gui's existence, thanks in large part to Kaeya, who had been monitoring the foreigner who had suddenly arrived in Mondstadt.

After observing Zhong Gui for a period of time and finding nothing suspicious, he did not report it, only mentioning it a few times when chatting with the head of the troupe, Qin.

Venti is unwilling and unable to interfere with the free city-states, so Zhonggui has no way to interfere with Mondstadt through Venti.

Although he didn't have that idea either.

And the other countries—

Chapter 59 Walnut and Xiao, an Old Father Spending Money Recklessly (Please Subscribe, Please Give Gifts)

Zhong Gui has traveled to seven countries, and if he had any ambition, he would have already controlled half of them.

This kind of control is similar to an alliance, and he is the leader of the alliance.

Although Wendy doesn't manage things personally, once she makes a decision, the Knights of Favonius will listen to it as long as it doesn't harm Mondstadt's interests.

And Inazuma...

To be honest, Inazuma is important to Barzebu, but not the most important one.

Now, the most important people in her eyes are actually the gods and the children.

A wife can be rebuilt if she's gone, but a person is truly gone once they're gone.

Of course, she'll kill anyone who touches Inazuma.

Zhong Gui, who appeared out of nowhere, was also one of the important people in her life.

She and Zhong Gui didn't have any romantic feelings for each other. Yae no Miko was just teasing them. After all, there were only a few of them at that price, and they were the only ones they could joke around with.

In Lei's eyes, Zhong Gui was her friend, the one who pulled her out of loneliness.

He was also the most suitable eternal partner in her eyes, the kind who would still be there even if she were gone.

Please forgive her selfishness; she really doesn't want anyone to get ahead of her again.

Under this complex relationship, Zhong Gui wielded considerable power over Dao Qi.

Or perhaps, with Shadow not involved, all the power lies in the hands of Fox and Zhong Gui.

As long as Inazuma is not harmed, the fox will not interfere with any of his decisions.

Now that Zhong Gui is gone, the fox has handed over power to Ayato Kamisato.

Speaking of Ayato Kamisato, Zhong Gui knew one thing: Ayato Kamisato might have a crush on him.

It's not some kind of illusion about life, it's real.

After all, he's handsome and capable, so it's understandable that young girls just beginning to experience romantic feelings would like him.

So Zhong Gui ran away...

In the Winter Kingdom, Zhong Gui fought with the Queen, stole the Heart of God, and ran away.

In Fontaine, Zhong Gui met the Water God at the end of a court trial.

Nata of the Land of Fire... to be honest, the God of Fire has a pretty good temper, I guess.

Sumeru, the bell returns to Sumeru, that is the retired emperor who has complete power.

None of that matters. Zhong Gui feels that Li Yue alone is enough to keep him busy. If Li Yue weren't inherited, he wouldn't even want her if she were given to him.

In my spare time, I write books, go out with Hu Tao to carry coffins, and go out to exorcise demons...

What a comfortable life.

And now? The ritual to invite the immortals is in a few days, and I haven't even made my plans yet.

How about we outsource it?

Speaking of going out to exorcise demons when I was a child...

"Pfft."

"What are you laughing at?" Hu Tao touched her face and found that there was nothing on it.

"No, I remembered Xiao's past."

"elf?"

Hu Tao thought of that stranger, "Hehehe~"

Back then, the two of them were still quite young, and Xiao didn't know Zhong Gui's identity. 8

The two wandered around Guili Plain, intending to perform a ritual to appease the souls of the dead, and then encountered a demon-slaying spirit. 9

Although Hu Tao was young at that time, he had already inherited the position of head of the Hall of Rebirth. Since ancient times, one had been in charge of killing and the other of burial; their cooperation was quite harmonious.

So Xiao sent over some simple, undead spirits. 9

At the time, Kurumi even said that Xiao, who didn't seem like a good person, was actually a gentle one, and that they should gradually get to know these things. 6

At that time, Kurumi, who was only half the height of Xiao, looked up at Xiao with admiration and said, "Big brother, you're so tall!"

Then year after year—chest, shoulders, eyebrows, top of the head, walnut-shaped eyebrows…4

From then on, it was always the same: "How would I know about matters concerning immortals? Oh dear, heavenly secrets cannot be revealed, don't ask me."

Disclaimer: Hu Tao has no knowledge of any "Great Sage Who Subdues Demons," so please refrain from making unfounded statements.

“Grandpa had just passed away at that time. If you hadn’t been with me, I definitely wouldn’t have been able to get through it so easily.”

"No, you're Walnut, you have inexhaustible energy."

"It's all because of you!"

"Mmm, try this sea bass."

"Hehe~"

Walnut opened her mouth and ate the boneless fish meat, then glanced around.

"The Hall of Rebirth has never been so crowded or so lively before."
