In the dark woods, Ye Li walked alone in the special forest of Wuwangpo with ghost lights.

Looking at the unique environment around him, Ye Li reached out and touched the ghost fire floating around.

This will-o'-the-wisp has no temperature or substance, it is as illusory as a dream bubble, but it can be seen clearly with the naked eye.

After walking around, Ye Li did not find any secret realm like the one in the game map. In other words, there were not even any ancient ruins here, let alone the Fire Crossing and Witch Set.

After observing Wuwangpo with his naked eyes, Ye Li finally arrived at one of the few villages here.

Although Wuwangpo is a bit eerie and strange, it is still relatively rich in resources and can easily provide enough supplies to maintain a city.

However, due to this special environment, few people live here. After all, when you walk out of the forest, you will encounter a natural environment with green grass, green piles and shady trees. Even if there are not many resources, if you look back and compare the two scenes, you will choose the latter.

After all, human patience and spirit have their limits. There are places with more beautiful paintings that compare with here. Sooner or later, someone will not be able to hold on and run to a better place.

Nowadays, due to the war between demons and gods, although Wuwangpo has not been affected, many people still ran to Guiliji in search of a better life.

This also contributed to the inevitable reduction of the village in Wuwangpo as the population decreased.

Walking into the village with not many people, the villagers here were not afraid of the environment here. There was numbness and habit in their eyes. When they saw Ye Li, an outsider, entering, they did not have much enthusiasm to greet him. However, the old village chief, who was the head of the village, was very excited and came to Ye Li's side with his crutches:

"Young man, you must be from Guiliji in the east."

Ye Li did not deny it, and nodded openly:

"I came from Guiliji, but due to the war, the Qianyan Army guarding the border can only let me out for a few days at most. If I don't return within the deadline, I might be treated as a monster and prohibited from approaching the border wall."

The village chief frowned after hearing Ye Li's explanation, but he finally sighed and said:

"If what you said is true, young man, then people from our village won't be able to get to Guiliji."

"Old village chief, you can still go to Guiliji. As long as you can prove that you are human beings and not monsters, you still have a chance."

"Young man, this is serious."

"Of course, as long as you follow the arrangements of the Qianyan Army, you can enter the border wall."

Ye Li smiled. He was the one who made this rule, so how could he not take it seriously?

However, you have to sign the contract with Morax before entering. This is also to ensure that outsiders will not cause trouble after entering Guiliji and cause unnecessary chaos.

Ye Li talked with the old village chief about some information about Wuwangpo and Guiliji, then waved and left.

Not long after Ye Li left, the village turned into ruins, leaving only the old village chief who turned into a transparent shadow and looked at the direction where Ye Li left. A sigh spread throughout the surroundings:

"Today, a young man finally came and learned the news from Guiliji. I have no regrets. However, saving a young man from going deeper is the last good thing I have done."

As the old village chief turned into a little starlight and disappeared, Ye Li's figure appeared nearby. Looking at the long-abandoned village, he couldn't help but smile bitterly:

"Old man, I saw through it a long time ago. It's a pity that your disguise is not as good as mine. However, it's a win-win for us that you leave without regrets."

After saying that, Ye Li walked towards the depths of Wuwangpo.

Just as Ye Li left, a figure that Ye Li was quite familiar with appeared at the entrance of Wuwangpo.

"Huh, I finally caught up. I wonder if that old man is still here. He seems to be very concerned about the situation in Guiliji."

Hu Tao wiped the sweat from his forehead, with a smile on his lips. He carried a long stick wrapped in bandages on his back and held various things in his hands as he walked towards the entrance of Wuwangpo.

Half an hour later, Hu Tao found traces of someone passing by. He frowned and quickened his pace.

When he arrived at the entrance of the abandoned village, Hu Tao discovered that the remaining soul of the old village chief had disappeared.

Hu Tao's eyes flashed a dark red light. He saw through the illusion and watched the old man's soul drifting towards the familiar place. His worries were put aside.

"It seems that the guy who dared to come to Wuwangpo alone was persuaded to leave by the old village chief. It seems that the guy has a lot of information, otherwise the old village chief would not leave here so easily and go to that place."

Just when Hu Tao thought that the man had left and turned to walk deeper, an explosion was heard deep in Wuwangpo.

Hu Tao's heart tightened and he quickly quickened his pace, running deeper into the place. When he arrived at the site of the explosion, he saw Ye Li, a man dressed like a knight and with a familiar face.

Ye Li killed the monster that was blocking his way with one sword, then turned around and found Hu Tao running out from the bushes. He couldn't help but reveal a surprised expression, as if he was very surprised how this guy got here from the border guarded by the Qianyan Army.

"Isn't this the immortal who helped me in the clinic before? I didn't expect you to be here."

Hu Tao looked very surprised. If he remembered correctly, most of the immortals were already stationed at the frontiers to resist the attacks of various demons. They should not have the time and energy to come here.

Ye Li smiled at Hu Tao, looked at the wrapped long stick behind him, and then said in a serious tone:

"I should be the one asking you this. Mortals are not allowed to leave the border. Isn't this clearly written in the contract?"

Hu Tao smiled awkwardly and told Ye Li part of his situation.

"I see. I heard from Ganyu that the Hall of the Dead that you built is indeed interesting, but sending away the dead souls doesn't require traveling so far."

In response to Ye Li's straightforward question, Hu Tao took out a contract without saying a word. His action was very obvious and his meaning was very clear.

Ye Li smiled helplessly and reached out to sign his name on the contract. He had read the contents of the contract at a glance, but it just prevented him from telling the truth.

Seeing the immortal in front of him so happy to be famous in the world, Hu Tao told Ye Li about the matter between Yin and Yang without any hesitation.

The Emperor also knew about the balance between Yin and Yang. After all, as the God of Contract, Morax would not violate the contract once it was signed.

"The world is so big, it's really amazing, but I didn't know such an important thing. It seems that the Emperor has already signed a contract with you."

Hu Tao didn't find it strange that Ye Li looked enlightened but not surprised.

After all, he is an immortal, and his psychological quality must be better than that of an ordinary person.

"But there have been some unusual movements at Wuwangpo recently, you should know this."

Hu Tao's expression became serious. How could he not know about this? After all, this was the center where the Yin and Yang worlds met. Once the balance between Yin and Yang was broken, he couldn't imagine how chaotic it would be.

One demon war is enough to plunge the entire continent of Teyvat into chaos. If yin and yang lose their balance at this critical moment, things will be very serious.
