Genshin Impact: Learning makes me stronger

"The Traveler and Su Xun?"

When Xiao heard Zhongli mention Ying and Su Xun, his heart moved slightly.

Xiao had seen the strength of Su Xun, the eldest disciple of Ge Chenlangshi Zhenjun, and he had indeed reached the same level as the immortals like them.

As for the Traveler Ying, he had never met him, but the person recommended by the Emperor must be extraordinary.

If these two could go with him, this exploration of the Layered Abyss would indeed be much easier.

However, I am not familiar with them. Is it a bit abrupt to directly invite them to participate in such a dangerous operation?

Xiao was a little hesitant. He was not good at interacting with others, and he was even more unwilling to cause trouble to others because of his personal affairs.

Zhongli seemed to see Xiao's concerns, so he smiled faintly and said, "Xiao, you don't have to worry too much. Ying and Su Xun are both people with a sense of justice. If they knew that this matter concerns the safety of Liyue, they would definitely do their best. Moreover, their strength is enough to deal with the possible dangers in the Layered Abyss."

Xiao nodded. Zhongli’s words made him feel much more at ease.

Without further hesitation, Xiao made up his mind: "Emperor, I will go and invite the travelers Ying and Su Xun, and ask them to go to the Layered Abyss with me."

Zhongli nodded slightly: "Go ahead."

Xiao bowed again, then his figure flashed and turned into a green light, disappearing on the observation deck of Wangshu Inn.

……

Liyue Port, Wanmin Hall.

At 3 p.m., the sun shines on the quaint streets, and people are coming and going, making the place bustling with activity.

Wendy was tasting the dishes prepared by Xiangling in Wanmin Hall. The unique flavor dancing on his tongue made him eat with great delight.

"Mmm, delicious! Xiangling, I didn't expect your cooking skills are so good!" Wendy ate heartily while praising generously. Xiangling was listening with great joy, her eyes smiling like crescent moons.

"Haha, as long as you like it. Although my cooking skills are not as good as my senior brother's, I have been working hard!"

Xiangling put her hands on her hips, looking proud, "When I develop more new dishes in the future, you must come and try them!"

"Of course, I can't resist the temptation of delicious food." Wendy said with a smile and stuffed another large piece of meat into her mouth.

At this time, the two people who were supposed to be strolling in Liyue Harbor were here because Xiangling's father, Master Mao, was a little too busy, so he sent someone to call Xiangling back to help.

Since Wendy had nothing to do, she followed Xiangling to Wanmin Hall.

In order to express her apology for not fulfilling her duties as a tour guide, Xiangling specially prepared this table of newly developed dishes for Wendy.

"Speaking of which, Wendy, do you have any delicious ingredients in Mond? I've been trying some new dishes recently and I want to find some special ingredients to add flavor."

Xiangling looked at Wendy with sparkling eyes, full of curiosity.

Wendy swallowed the food in her mouth and patted her chest. "That's a lot! Mond has sweet windmill daisy, which has a fresh and elegant taste. It's perfect for making drinks or garnishing desserts. There are also sunset fruits, which have plump and juicy flesh, and taste sour and sweet. If you make it into jam and spread it on bread, the taste is so delicious."

Xiangling's eyes lit up when she heard this. "That all sounds great! If we use these ingredients to create new dishes, it will definitely bring a whole new experience to the diners!"

Xiangling rubbed her hands excitedly and had already started to imagine the appearance of new dishes in her mind.

"Girl, come and help. The guests have ordered a large table of dishes and we can't handle it!" Chef Mao's voice came from the stove.

"Come here, Dad!" Xiangling responded and winked at Wendy. "I'll go get busy first, you take your time eating." After that, she ran to the kitchen in a hurry.

Wendy looked at Xiangling's busy back, smiled, and continued to enjoy the food.

However, at this moment, he suddenly felt a familiar breath approaching.

Putting down the cutlery in her hand, Wendy turned and looked towards the door, only to see Xiao's figure appear at the gate of Wanmin Hall.

Wendy was a little surprised. He didn't expect to see Xiao here.

Xiao's gaze swept across the Hall of All People and finally fell on Wendy, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Wendy smiled and waved at Xiao, "Hi~ Are you coming to Wanmintang for dinner too?"

Xiao paused, then walked towards Venti.

"wind……"

"Shh!" Wendy quickly raised her index finger to her lips, made a gesture of silence, and then lowered her voice and said: "Here, I am just Wendy, not the God of Wind. Come, sit down, and taste the food together."

Xiao hesitated slightly, then sat down opposite Venti.

He looked at the table full of dishes, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes, as if he felt a little strange that Wendy appeared here to taste Liyue's dishes, but he did not ask any more questions.

Xiao is not the type of person who likes to pry into the trivial matters of other people's lives. At this moment, what he is thinking about is how to invite travelers Ying and Su Xun to go to the Layered Abyss together.

Wendy saw that Xiao seemed to be worried, so he put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hands, wiped his mouth, smiled and asked softly: "Great Sage Conquering the Demons, is this the first time we officially meet?"

Xiao nodded slightly, "Yes, it's the first time."

He paused, then continued, "Thank you for calming the suffering of my karma before. If it weren't for you, I might still be suffering from that pain."

Wendy waved her hand and said with a smile, "No need to thank me, it's just a small favor. You look like you have something on your mind. If you don't mind, you can tell me about it."

Xiao was silent for a moment. He still trusted the Emperor's colleague and the God of Wind who had helped him to relieve his karmic suffering many times over the past few hundred years.

Fortunately, this was not something that needed to be kept secret, so Xiao hesitated for a moment before briefly telling Wendy what had happened in the Abyss and his plan to explore it again.

After listening quietly, Wendy's eyes flashed with enlightenment, "So that's how it is..."

"I just talked to the old man about the Layered Rock Abyss this morning. I didn't expect that there would be some abnormalities there."

After stroking his chin and mumbling a few words, Wendy looked at Xiao's indifferent and handsome face, smiled easily, then patted Xiao's shoulder and said:

"Then it was the right choice for you to come to find Traveler Ying and Su Xun. They are both very reliable people, especially Traveler. She is like a gust of free wind, always able to blow away the fog and find the truth."

Xiao nodded slightly, then frowned again and said, "But I just followed the scent and didn't find them. They don't seem to be in Liyue."

"Ahaha~" Wendy raised her eyebrows, then spread her hands to Xiao, "Then we can be considered to be in the same boat. To be honest, I was planning to go look for Su Xun and the others today, but I heard that they went to Fontaine and will not return to Liyue until the evening. You should not be in a hurry, right? If not, then wait here with me for them to come back."

Xiao thought about it for a moment, then nodded slightly in agreement.

It's almost night anyway, so it won't hurt to wait for an hour or two.

Moreover, he was somewhat curious about the God of Wind, and this was a good opportunity to learn more about him.
