Original God, I, the prince of Liyue, do not want to inherit the throne

The sky is filled with yellow earth and yellow sand. The scorching sun burns the sandy land. In the ocean formed by endless sand, there are many tenacious plants supporting their lives, surviving in this environment which is like a forbidden zone for life.

At this time in the endless desert, there were two figures, one big and one small, wearing cloaks and carrying large bags on their backs, walking in this endless desert.

“Oh, it’s so hot!”

One of the figures uttered the soft voice unique to a young girl in the desert, but it sounded a little weak.

Tianana cried out and looked up at the hot sun in the sky. For the first time, she felt a strong dislike for the sun.

Ye Li didn't feel anything at this time. As a demon god, his body was completely immune to this hot environment. Moreover, the yellow sand here made it even easier for Ye Li to control it, as if this was his home court.

However, his current identity is a mortal, and based on his personality, he has to take actions that are consistent with his personality.

"Don't complain. We have finally traveled through the rain forest for a month to get to the desert. If we give up so easily, how can we meet the Scarlet King and the Flower God, punish the evil-minded Ku Azha, and restore order to Xumi?"

Ye Li's encouraging words gave the girl, who was feeling helpless about the hot desert, some strength, but she still said in a rather tired voice:

"I know what you said, but it's really hot here. I just came out of the rain less than half a day ago and I'm like this. Could it be that my physique is not suitable for staying in the desert for a long time?"

Faced with Tinana's troubling question, Ye Li thought for a moment and took out a small box from his package.

This action also made the girl's eyes light up. She was very curious about the good things that Ye Li took out from time to time. Those things were not available in Xumi.

Ye Li opened the wooden box. The cold ice crystals produced mist in the hot desert environment. The combined refreshing feeling of the two made the girl move closer, and she almost stuck to Ye Li.

"Ye Li, what is this? The cool feeling is simply amazing." Tianana said excitedly with bright eyes.

"Every family in Liyue has this thing, but mine is a super small model. I spent a lot of Mora to buy it, and I can't be unprepared when I come to Xumi this time."

Ye Li talked at length about the prosperity of Liyue and also explained the box in his hand.

"This thing is an element refrigerator. It only takes a little bit of elemental power to drive it to create cold air like ice slime. This thing is what I prepared for the desert environment."

"Ye Li, you are so strong! You are so well prepared that even a guide like me feels ashamed of myself."

The amazement in Tinana's eyes did not diminish at all, and she became more and more curious about the Liyue that Ye Li mentioned. She even had the idea of ​​following Ye Li to Liyue after this operation.

Ye Li took out two popsicles from the small element refrigerator, handed one to Tinana, and said:

"Eat it now, or it will melt in the sun."

Tianana was not one to be pretentious. She took the popsicle in one hand and put it directly into her mouth. The cool feeling and the taste of the fruit made the girl squint her eyes.

In the hot desert, Tianana was genuinely happy to have this thirst-quenching and cool popsicle to moisturize her body.

Ye Li smiled and looked at the endless desert in front of him. He began to sense the veins of the earth under his feet, looking for the direction of the oasis.

As they walked, Tinana took out a map of the desert from her package. The more she looked at it, the more her brows furrowed. She touched her chin and said:

"It's weird. If we follow the map, we should be close to the oasis nearby, but there's no trace of it."

As a guide, Tinana had made all kinds of preparations for exploring the route, but when she followed the map, she couldn't find the destination, which really puzzled the girl.

Ye Li looked at the map, and compared it with the route of the veins under his feet. He couldn't help but point his finger at a corner of the map and said:

"Why don't we go this way? After all, the environment in the desert is changing all the time. It's very likely that the route on the map will be wrong in a few months."

Tianana also sighed helplessly, reached out and took a popsicle from Ye Li's elemental refrigerator, put it in her mouth and nodded, then started walking in the direction Ye Li pointed.

In less than half an hour, they found a tiny oasis with an area of ​​about two hundred meters, which was enough for two people to survive.

Ye Li and Tianana came to the small lake in the oasis and reached out to test the purity of the water. Suddenly, a shadow rushed out of the water.

Tinana's reaction was faster than the figure that rushed out of the lake. She thrust out with her spear like a dragon, leaving an afterimage and instantly eliminated the creature that attacked them.

Ye Li took a look at the scorpion-like creature in front of him and couldn't help but squint his eyes to look at it.

Tinana is very familiar with this kind of creature. After all, she is a scholar of the life theory school and has a wealth of biological knowledge.

"This is a poisonous scorpion unique to the desert. It seems that this water cannot be drunk."

"We finally found an oasis, but the water is not drinkable. This scorpion is really vicious." Ye Li said helplessly.

"But the drinking water we have can last for a few days, so we don't need the water from this oasis."

Tianana said comfortingly.

Time passed slowly and night had come. The temperature difference in the desert was huge. It was extremely hot during the day and extremely cold at night.

Such a huge temperature difference has no effect on Ye Li, but it is very dangerous for Tinana.

But fortunately, we brought a lot of firewood for the campfire, so we can still keep warm.

Tianana crawled into a cotton nest made of animal fur, only one meter away from the fire. Otherwise, if Ye Li took out the isolation glass, Tianana would have been burned long ago.

Looking at the transparent glass in front of her, Tianana didn't feel excited. After all, this is the building material of many houses.

The starry sky at night illuminated the earth. Ye Li set up defensive traps around him and lay down on the haystack in the oasis. He looked up at the starry sky and fell into thought.

After more than a month of adventure in the rainforest, Ye Li has indeed broadened his horizons. This may be one of the reasons why Morax invited him here to exchange technology.

However, Ye Li also knew that the exchange of technology was secondary. The real purpose was to destroy the Demon God's plan for the land of Xumi. It was also a disguised way of protecting Liyue's defense and maintenance in the direction of Xumi. It was a plan jointly arranged by the two countries.

Ye Li is the biggest chess piece in this game, and the one who can overturn the chessboard with his bare hands.

Now Ye Li had no intention of discussing technical exchanges. He was just curious about how the Flower God and the Red Queen would react when he met them. Whether they would change their plans and cause irreversible impact on the future. All of this was within the scope of what Ye Li needed to consider.

After all, his butterfly has been moving all the time and has changed a lot of situations. Even the demon in the original timeline who would have been killed by his father is still alive and has joined Osel's camp.

Ye Li, whose local household registration is recorded by the World Tree and who has the characteristics of an adventer, is so difficult that even the Great Compassion Tree King cannot figure out this relationship.

Ye Li sat up and didn't think about it anymore. These problems were all matters for the future. Now he just had to focus on the current journey.

His thoughts turned rapidly, Ye Li closed his eyes, sat cross-legged, and communicated with the jade pendant in the Sea of ​​True Spirit.
