Genshin Impact: Learning makes me stronger
Chapter 175 Heartbeat
Su Xun walked out of the room and came to the outside of the castle tower, ready to take a stroll around Inazuma Castle in the morning.
Whether it was five hundred years later or five hundred years ago now, Su Xun had never properly toured this city, which had a style completely different from that of Liyue.
As Inazuma is an island country, the air seems to be filled with the salty taste of the sea breeze.
Walking on the bluestone-paved streets, the cherry trees on both sides of the street sway in the wind and the petals fall like rain, adding a touch of romance to the city.
Su Xun walked aimlessly, admiring the beautiful scenery of Inazuma City.
As he was walking around, his eyes were attracted by a small stall. The stall owner was a kind old lady who was selling hot glutinous rice balls.
"Would you like a glutinous rice dumpling, young man?" the old woman said to Su Xun with a smile.
Su Xun nodded, bought a glutinous rice dumpling, sat on a bench beside the stall and savored it slowly. The dumpling was soft, sticky and sweet, which made him feel happier.
Sitting on the bench, watching the people coming and going on the street, Su Xun closed his eyes, his mind gradually became empty, thinking of nothing and doing nothing.
He felt his mind was more peaceful than ever before at this moment, as if he had merged into one with the morning of Inazuma Castle.
Just then, the sound of wooden clogs came from far away, light and melodious.
Su Xun didn't care and just thought it was a passerby passing by, continuing to enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of the morning.
But for some reason, he suddenly felt an urge in his heart, as if he would miss something if he didn't open his eyes.
This impulse made Su Xun feel a little strange, but he still chose to follow his heart and opened his eyes.
The moment he opened his eyes and saw the scene in front of him, his breathing couldn't help but stagnate and his heart began to beat faster.
He saw a woman in a pink kimono walking slowly towards him not far in front of him, her steps light as cherry blossom petals dancing in the wind.
The woman's kimono was embroidered with exquisite patterns and colorful patterns that sparkled in the sun.
Her long hair was carefully tied into a bun, with a few strands dancing in the wind, adding a touch of softness. Her delicate face was like the most perfect creation of the Creator, and her pink amber pupils were as bright as the morning star.
The woman's slightly upturned mouth corners seemed to contain endless tenderness, and there was a pair of flesh-colored horns on her forehead. However, these horns not only did not destroy her beautiful face, but instead added a different kind of beauty to it.
Su Xun was deeply attracted by her, not only because of her stunning appearance, but also because of the calmness and elegance she exuded, which seemed to blend perfectly with the surrounding environment and become a unique landscape in Inazuma City.
The woman seemed to notice Su Xun's gaze. She turned her head slightly and then saw Su Xun.
It seemed that this was the first time that the woman saw a handsome and elegant young man like Su Xun. She was slightly stunned.
Time seemed to stand still at this moment. Su Xun and the woman's eyes met, and there was a hint of astonishment in each of their eyes.
After a moment, the woman came back to her senses first, and gave him a faint smile. Her smile was bright and lively, like the warm sunshine in early spring, which made people intoxicated.
Su Xun's heart beat faster, pounding like a drum.
The woman did not stop and continued her journey, and Su Xun watched her go away until her figure disappeared at the end of the street.
An indescribable feeling surged in his heart, a mixture of joy and loss.
He sat back on the bench, but his heart could no longer be at peace.
The figure of that woman has been lingering in his mind, and her every smile and frown are deeply imprinted in his heart.
"who is she?"
At this moment, Su Xun's heart was filled with curiosity and desire. He wanted to know the woman's name, wanted to know her story, wanted to communicate with her, wanted to...
As if realizing that he was a little excited, Su Xun took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. After a while, he regained his composure.
Su Xun pursed his lips, feeling a little disappointed.
Is he... attracted to that woman?
Su Xun didn't know whether he fell in love at first sight or was just attracted by her beauty, but in any case, he was sure that he wanted to get close to that woman and wanted to become a part of her life.
This was the first time he had this feeling, either in his previous life or in this life. This emotion was both unfamiliar and strong to him, making him a little overwhelmed.
It’s not like he has never been in love before, so why does he have this feeling like he’s in his first love?
Shen He, Hu Tao, Ying Mei, he already has three girlfriends, so he can't be considered a virgin. The sudden emergence of such emotions in his heart made him seem a little childish and ridiculous, but this feeling was so real that he couldn't ignore it.
After a moment of silence, Su Xun decided to follow his inner thoughts. After all, this was the first time he felt so moved. He felt that he would regret it if he gave up on that woman.
But Su Xun was not in a hurry. He would stay in Inazuma for a while anyway, and he would meet that woman again sooner or later.
After all, that woman is so beautiful, and has such obvious features as two horns on her head. She must be very famous in Inazuma City. Let's get to know each other formally next time we meet.
Thinking of this, Su Xun's mood gradually became cheerful. He stood up and continued to stroll on the streets of Inazuma City, enjoying the tranquility and beauty of the early morning.
But he didn't wander around for long. He just strolled for a while and then returned to the castle tower.
Because his main goal at the moment is to first establish a good relationship with the Thunder Twins, and then use them to find clues related to the power of time, so that he will have a chance to return five hundred years later.
Although Inazuma is very comfortable in this era, and the twin sisters Raiden Shin and Rai Dieng have become his friends, and he can live a comfortable life here, he will not forget that his three girlfriends Shenhe, Hu Tao and Yingmei are still waiting for him in the future.
As soon as he returned to the castle tower, an Ojie came up to him, bowed respectfully, and said to Su Xun: "Sir, the general is looking for you, please move to the arena."
General? Shadow is looking for me?
However, the thought was interrupted by Su Xun the next moment it popped up in his mind. No, the current General Lei Dian is real, and Ying is still just a silly country girl.
Thoughts surged in his mind, but his expression remained unchanged. He smiled and responded, "Okay, thank you for letting me know."
Feeling Su Xun's gentle attitude, this Aojiezhong was a little flattered. He didn't expect that this gentleman, as a friend of the general, would be so approachable. His good impression of Su Xun suddenly increased.
He quickly said that this was what he should do, and then respectfully led the way for Su Xun.
After a while, the two arrived at the arena.
Su Xun also saw Zhen and Ying here, as well as the little god who looked like a pink and white fox.
However, in addition to these friends, he actually saw a familiar yet unfamiliar figure - it was the woman in the pink kimono. She was standing next to Raiden Shin and Raiden Dian, and seemed to be talking to them.
Su Xun's breathing stagnated, and then his heart started beating rapidly again. He didn't expect to meet that woman again so soon. Is this fate?
He quickly calmed himself down, then walked forward, quickening his pace a little, as if he couldn't wait any longer.
"Su Xun, you are here." Lei Dianzhen smiled gently, his eyes soft, like autumn water.
After greeting Su Xun, Zhen signaled that the Aojie people who were leading the way could go down, and then she continued to say to Su Xun: "I didn't expect that you would go out so early in the morning, Su Xun, I was just looking for you."
"Hehe, Brother Su Xun, His Highness Zhen wants to introduce a friend to you~" The little son of God rubbed against Zhen's arms, blinked his lively eyes, and said happily.
"Friend?" Su Xun felt a little expectant.
"Yes, let me introduce him to you." Raiden Shin pulled over the girl in a pink kimono and said with a smile, "This is my favorite general, a good friend of Ying and I, and the leader of the ghost tribe with extraordinary martial arts - Miyu Chiyo."
"Qiandai, this is Su Xun, the direct disciple of Liyue Immortal Master Ge Chenlangshi. Mr. Su Xun is knowledgeable and his strength should not be underestimated. In the duel with Ying yesterday, his martial arts skills were comparable to hers."
After hearing the real introduction, Su Xun and Yu Chiyo looked at each other and were silent for a moment.
"Huh? Why aren't you talking?" Lei Dianzhen couldn't help but feel confused when he saw Su Xun and the other man remaining silent.
Looking at this scene, Ying and Xiao Shenzi also felt a little strange.
Could it be that these two people just don't get along?
Hearing the real question, Miyu Chiyo came back to her senses, then smiled sweetly and took the initiative to perform a ritual.
"I didn't expect this gentleman to know His Highness. I hope you will forgive me for my neglect of you before."
"Ms. Chiyo, you are too polite. We just met by chance before, and we are just passers-by to each other. How can it be considered as neglect?" Su Xun quickly returned the greeting.
"Huh? Do you know each other?" Lei Dianzhen asked curiously.
"It can't be considered as knowing each other. We just met by chance in the city this morning."
Su Xun explained with a smile, trying to make his tone sound relaxed, even though his heart was not as calm as he appeared to be.
It turns out that this woman is actually the friend of Thunder God, the demon girl Mikiya Chiyo. She is indeed worthy of being the most beautiful woman in Inazuma...
"Oh, so that's how it is." Lei Dianzhen seemed to accept this explanation. Her eyes moved back and forth between Su Xun and Yu Yu Qiandai, as if she was thinking about something.
Su Xun felt a little uncomfortable with her gaze. He subconsciously looked away, but happened to meet Yu Chiyo's gaze.
Their eyes met for a moment, then they both quickly looked away.
"Okay, now that you already know each other, let's start today's martial arts exchange." Lei Dianzhen said.
"Martial arts exchange? Are we going to have another competition?" Su Xun looked at Lei Dianzhen with some surprise.
"No," Lei Dianzhen explained with a smile, "Martial arts exchanges are not just a form of fighting, it also includes discussions on martial arts concepts, demonstrations of skills, and mutual learning and exchanges.
Since you are all friends, Chiyo and Ying are both passionate about martial arts, and Su Xun you are very powerful, I hope that through this method, you can enhance your mutual understanding and improve your martial arts together."
Su Xun nodded. Since that was what was said, he naturally had no objection.
"Then let's start with the display of skills." Lei Dianzhen suggested, "Qiandai, why don't you go first and let Su Xun see the martial arts of the ghost tribe?"
Miyu Chiyo smiled slightly and nodded in agreement.
She walked to the center of the arena and slowly drew out the long sword from her waist. The blade gleamed coldly in the sunlight.
Su Xun's eyes were filled with anticipation, wondering what kind of demeanor this stunning beauty would have when she demonstrated her martial arts.
With a clear whistle, Miyu Chiyo began her performance.
His sword skills are sharp yet gentle, his movements are elegant and calm, like a beautiful painting, perfectly combining strength and gentleness, which is breathtaking. Every time he swings the sword, there is a sound of wind, as if he can split the air.
The girl's steps are light and graceful, and every turn she makes her dance like a butterfly, making people intoxicated by her dancing.
Su Xun's eyes were filled with strange colors, so beautiful... so cool...
Crazy Heart
After the demonstration, Miyomi Chiyo sheathed her sword and bowed to everyone present.
Lei Dianzhen took the lead in applauding, and Su Xun couldn't help but follow suit.
The little son of God was so excited that he shook and clapped his hands vigorously, looking so adorable and endearing.
"Very good, very good. Chiyo's martial arts are still so beautiful and moving. Then, Mr. Su Xun, can you also let us see Liyue's martial arts? Oh, of course, immortal techniques are also fine. After all, martial arts exchanges are not bound by form." Lei Dianzhen turned to Su Xun and said with a smile.
Su Xun smiled slightly and nodded in agreement.
He walked to the center of the arena, took a deep breath, then summoned the Wanhua Magic Pearl, which transformed into a white jade green-hair brush.
Su Xun did not plan to practice his gun skills this time. After all, Zhen and Ying had already seen it, so he prepared to show off his other artistic conception-level skills.
Unlike pure combat skills such as marksmanship, the performance of calligraphy, painting and music is very gorgeous.
Su Xun glanced at Yu Chiyo without leaving a trace. There was no doubt that he had the idea of using these skills to leave some good impression on this beauty.
Although his mind was full of thoughts, Su Xun remained calm and composed.
At this time, in the center of the arena, Su Xun, who was dressed in a plain brocade gown and extremely handsome, held a white jade green-hair brush in his hand, standing proudly, looking calm and composed.
Several beauties in the audience looked at the young man with extraordinary temperament on the stage, and there was a glimmer of strangeness in their eyes.
Without any hesitation, Su Xun focused his eyes and gently moved the brush in his hand, outlining mysterious runes in the air.
As Su Xun wrote, the runes seemed to come alive. They flowed in the air and intertwined into beautiful patterns.
Some turn into gurgling water, some look like blazing flames, some are like wind blowing across the fields, and some twinkle and shine like stars!
