Genshin Impact: A Traveler with Only Two Skills
Chapter 40 Soul Split
This face, Ying had seen it before.
That was when she first entered the village, before she lost consciousness, all she saw were two dark, empty faces.
She didn't expect that it was Ling Yue.
"Don't be afraid." Ling Yue wanted to comfort Ying, but her look was really unconvincing. It was hard to make people feel at ease with a face like that, especially since Ying had been attacked by a monster with this face. She couldn't believe Ling Yue at all.
"I am the part of the soul that has not been completely eroded." Ling Yue continued, perhaps to show her sincerity, she did not make any other movements.
"I'd never trust you!" Ying complained in her heart. Ling Yue in front of her didn't look like she was okay.
But thinking of the Ling Yue outside just now, the guy who kept asking her to call his name and wanted Ying to become Ling Yue as well, Ying felt that the Ling Yue in front of her seemed somewhat credible.
Do not!
The most likely scenario is that both Ling Yues have been possessed by demons, but the two possessed souls have not yet merged, which is why it is like this now.
This shows that Ling Yue is really an immortal, and in order to prevent herself from being possessed by a demon, she also used the method of soul leaving the body that Bai Han used to prevent the situation from getting worse.
Thinking of this, Ying did not relax at all. She glanced around with her peripheral vision, trying to find a way to escape from here, while dealing with Ling Yue in front of her.
"Why should I believe you?" Ying asked.
"I know I must look strange now, but I have to tell you that I won't hurt you. I can tell you what happened, including how I came here and how the village became like this. By then, you will definitely understand that I am not your enemy." Ling Yue said, and then she stared at Ying closely, as if seeking her opinion.
This was very strange, because as mentioned before, the person in front of him only had two dark holes on his face, and no real eyes or other organs, but Ying could not only hear her speak, she could even feel her gaze.
Communication between people is not just through words. Rather, communication using only words will produce a lot of ambiguity. Especially as the language becomes more and more rich, the possibility of ambiguity will increase.
I don’t know how many misunderstandings and quarrels arise when the only way of communication is through text.
In reality, people need to communicate with each other through tone of voice, body movements, facial expressions, and eye contact. Only in this way can people transform language communication into communication that is closer to the heart, and only in this way can people understand each other.
Although Ling Yue did not use any body movements, her facial expression could not be seen, and even her tone of voice did not fluctuate, it was because Ying felt her eyes - that kind of tenderness, with a hint of sadness and melancholy, that made Ying willing to believe her.
This is not absolute trust, just like when Ying met Tartaglia and Sanbing in the continent of Teyvat. One of them was the last of the Fatui executive officers, and the other was the former Fatui executive officer. They had both done many evil things and caused irreparable harm to many people.
As a result, Ying is always very alert when she sees them now, but this does not mean that she cannot cooperate with them.
Now facing Ling Yue, Ying's thoughts are the same as when facing Tartaglia and Sanbing. She remains wary of her, but still has basic trust in her.
After getting Ying's answer, Ling Yue raised her head slightly. She seemed to be organizing her words and recalling the past. After a while, she opened her mouth and said:
"The name Lingyue is actually mine, not this little girl's. Her original name was Ah Yue, and she was a resident of this village. However, her consciousness has disappeared due to the erosion of the demonic energy, and I had no choice but to occupy her body."
"I was originally a cultivator from Tianya Island. I was injured by the demon cultivators and had to flee to this remote place. But I didn't expect that when I was fighting with those demon cultivators, they had already injected their demonic energy into my body, causing me to be corroded by the demonic energy without knowing it. By the time I discovered it, it was already difficult for me to expel the demonic energy by myself."
"My magic power had not yet recovered at that time, and I could not ask for help from fellow disciples on the island. I had no choice but to hide near this village, hoping to slowly recover my magic power."
"I also know the harm of demonic energy, so in order to avoid affecting the villagers, I hid in the cave outside the village most of the time, but I didn't expect that I would be discovered."
"Was it Ah Yue who discovered you?" Ying asked, but she had another answer in her mind, "Or was it Gui Yan who discovered you?"
If what Ling Yue in front of her said was true, then she also figured out whose voice she had heard in the village before.
When she was unconscious in the village, she heard two voices. One was childish and clear, and the other sounded familiar. If she guessed correctly, the familiar voice was Gui Yan's, and the childish voice might be the A Yue mentioned by Ling Yue.
"Guiyan found me." Lingyue confirmed Ying's guess, "Then she asked Ayue to find me because Ayue wanted my help with something."
"Heh." Ling Yue actually chuckled when she said this, but soon her aura became sad again.
"They were all innocent children who believed that immortals were omnipotent and could solve all problems. So, I didn't want to disappoint them, and I also thought I had the ability to help her."
Although judging from her age, Guiyan should be a girl.
Ying complained in her heart and then said:
"'I hope my parents stop fighting, and I hope that bad uncle stops showing up'"
As soon as the words fell, Ying felt Ling Yue's surprise.
"Why do you know this?"
Ying was hesitating whether to tell her about her experience of time travel, but before she could make a decision, Ling Yue in front of her suddenly pounced on her.
"Is she going to attack me?!" Ying quickly got into position, but she soon realized that Ling Yue didn't want to hurt her.
Ling Yue rushed towards Ying, shouting "Be careful!"
Ying also felt a murderous aura, so she quickly jumped to the side and successfully avoided the sudden attack.
When Ying stabilized her body, she found that what attacked her was actually a beautiful white flower.
"You are not the immortal's elder sister. You don't want to call me by my name, but why are you chatting so happily with the other me? I am so jealous."
The seemingly normal Ling Yue suddenly appeared. She walked out from the empty darkness and looked at Ying with an innocent smile on her face.
"Call my name now, big sister. I want a beautiful big sister like you to become Ling Yue too."
