After cosplaying as Prince of Water, I traveled to Teyvat

"Xiao is a man of very firm beliefs. If he doesn't have a specific goal, he probably won't easily leave Dihua Island, which he has guarded for more than a hundred years."

Shui Qingli expressed his understanding and said that he had known about this for a long time, since he saw Aratake Ichito and Kuki Shinobu appear in Liyue.

"Why did he go to the Strata?"

But he still wanted to ask one more question.

"Did you know that there were five Yaksha generals under the command of Emperor Yanwang?"

Zhongli did not answer directly, but asked him a question instead.

"I've heard of it before. You mean the [Immortal Yakshas] back then, right?"

"The Yaksha clan is brave and good at fighting, and each has his own abilities. Among them, the five most powerful Yaksha immortals followed the Rock King Emperor to fight, so they were called [Immortal Yaksha]. However, such a powerful race has its own flaws."

Whether it is a human or a god, when recalling a sad event, they always become very depressed.

Zhongli didn't seem to have changed at all, and his tone remained so calm and steady, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.

"Once a Yaksha kills too much, he will be infected with the karma generated after the death of living beings. He will be entangled in unbearable pain, and his spirit and strength will be greatly damaged. In the end, it will backfire on him and he will end up in a miserable way."

"But fighting is the Yaksha's instinct to survive. Even though they knew the consequences of being entangled in karma, they did not hesitate to follow Emperor Yanwang to the battlefield and made great contributions. In the end, as you can see, there was only one person left alive in the Yaksha clan."

Moreover, the reason why Xiao survived was because of the help of the God of Wind. Now with Shui Qingli clearing his karma, his strength has been mostly restored. So when he proposed to go to Chengyan to look for the nameless Yaksha, he had no reason to stop him.

"He has four brothers and sisters, three of whom have passed away, and one is missing. Now that I know there is a rumor about a nameless Yaksha in Layer Rock, I naturally want to go and investigate it thoroughly."

Shui Qingli heard Zhongli explain it to him in such detail, and for some reason he suddenly had a premonition.

"Since you are also interested in strata, why not..."

Emperor, do you want to take a look at what you are talking about, Emperor?

The abacus beads that wanted me to help Xiao were clacking so loudly that Barbatos could hear it in Mondstadt, okay?

Wendy: Hey~

"Why don't you go and pick him up while he's hanging out in Layer Rock to prevent him from getting into any accidents."

……

It was a little different from what he had imagined but it also seemed quite reasonable. If he guessed correctly, Zhongli meant for him to wait for Xiao to come up and then help if he was in danger.

Isn't this what Zhongli did at the time? He made a three-second appearance to pretend to be a version of Bi, and saved Mihuyou's parents.

Ah, Emperor, you think too highly of me.

"I just saw Sora and Paimon heading towards the Layered Abyss. Maybe they found something there. Why don't I catch up with them? As for picking them up, I'm afraid I'm not capable of that."

Shui Qingli explained tactfully.

In short, I don't have that ability, so you should do it yourself.

He is just an incompetent Coser who can only play with water. Even if the real Prince of Water comes, he may not understand Liyue's fairy magic and have a cold face.

"Hmm? Are travelers involved as well?"

Zhongli held his chin.

"If he's here, you and Xiao might have a chance to reunite at Stratum. If that's the case... well, that's fine."

Before he finished his words, the people in front of him suddenly dispersed and turned into falling water droplets. With Zhongli's keen eyesight, he could certainly tell that this was a direct use of some kind of escape technique.

"During this trip to Inazuma, it seems that I have made great progress in the use of my strength."

He said to himself, a smile on his face.

"Looks like I should hang out for a while, too."

Kong and Paimon usually go directly to the teleportation anchor point, so it is better to wait for Yan Fei directly.

Yan Fei, who accepted the commission, also wants to go down to the Abyss. It will be more convenient and simpler to wait for her to act together.

It just so happened that Yan Fei was hiding everywhere because of a familiar ghost king from Inazuma, and she was at a loss. She had almost run all over Liyue Harbor, but for some reason, she was chased and blocked by the overly enthusiastic gentleman wherever she went.

Ah Chou hides his merits and fame.

"Hmm... what should I do? I still have a commission to do. Should I take them to the Stratum Abyss?"

Yan Fei was a little distressed. Why couldn't she get rid of it?

"Yan Fei, have you encountered any problems?"

Shui Qingli and Yan Fei had met each other before. After Zhongli took him to meet the three immortals living in seclusion in Ao Zang Mountain, Grandma Ping in Liyue Harbor naturally also knew him.

During the time when he was helping Xiao with work in Liyue, he could often see Ganyu in the wild and Yan Fei in some remote villages. Even though she was already an honorary barrister in Liyue Harbor, Yan Fei was not picky about the clients who came to her. No matter who needed help, she would take the commission and work hard to complete it.

"Oh, it's Mr. Qingli, long time no see."

Yan Fei turned around when she heard the familiar voice.

"Nothing, I just met a difficult person... Mr. Qingli went to Inazuma before, right? Can you tell me some tips on how to get along with Inazuma people?"

Yan Fei couldn't help but ask.

Anin has a calm personality and is a very hard-working and reliable junior, but Yanfei was a little overwhelmed by the fact that she didn't expect that Inazuma would have someone with the same personality as Aratake Ichito.

"…Sorry, maybe you would be better off asking Sora this question."

Traveler is a sea king who can make friends with people from any country. Is it appropriate to ask a socially anxious person this question?

Although he always uses Kong's name to scam people everywhere, Shui Qingli firmly believes that he is socially anxious. He will not talk to any stranger unless they are familiar people he has seen in the game.

"That's true...Oh no, the agreed time is almost up."

"I'm sorry Mr. Qingli, I have something else to do today. Let's talk again next time we have a chance."

Yan Fei looked at the time and jumped up anxiously, wanting to leave from the wooden bridge behind, which was the direction of Lishajiao and led to the Layered Rock Abyss.

"You're going to the Layered Abyss, right? I'm going there too, so why don't we go together?"

Yan Fei stopped moving, raised one foot and looked back, looking a little subtly embarrassed.

"Ah? How did you know..."

"Someone is following us, let's go first."

Shui Qingli suddenly grabbed Yan Fei's arm, and a water dragon suddenly appeared under his feet, instantly carrying the two of them into the air, and disappeared in less than a moment.

Arata Ichito, who followed Achou's scent from behind, wrinkled his nose.

"Ah Chou, are you sure you didn't make a mistake?"

He glanced suspiciously at his partner and pet.

The latter snorted in disgust and didn't bother to pay attention to him.

“Boss, maybe she has already left here. Miss Yan Fei is very powerful, so this is normal.”

Jiuqi Shinobu observed the surroundings and saw signs that someone had been there, so she explained.

"Okay, let's keep chasing!"

No one can stop Ara Taki Ichito from doing what he wants to do. He has made it clear today that he will definitely repay this favor!
