Genshin Impact: Pool Character, Nirvana of the Demon God

"The next selection will be in ten years..."

"Before that day comes, I will definitely work harder!"

The young man expressed his lofty ambitions at the foot of Tianheng Mountain.

Jun Moli smiled and said, "I'm optimistic about you."

Yuan Xi smiled shyly, scratched his head, and said, "Thank you, Mr. Mo Li. But... the peak is not so easy for me to climb to."

"I can only...do my best until that day comes."

Jun Moli smiled and said, "I can definitely do it."

“If it’s something you really want to do, you should give it your all until you achieve results. If you fail, try to recover until everything is right again.”

[Give it your all before you achieve results! After failure, try again and again!]

【What a full-opener. 】

[This sounds quite encouraging, as expected of the second brother.]

[Now with another buff, Yuan Xi is simply born to be the disciple of the second brother~]

Scenes from the past flashed back before Jun Moli's eyes.

Like Yuan Xi, he also had a goal that was not easy to achieve and he once wanted to give up.

Jun Moli wiped the dim divine eye that served as a sword tassel with his hand, revealing a look of nostalgia.

Looking at Yuan Xi, his eyes became softer.

This kid and I are truly destined to be together. It's just like what my eldest brother once said: "We really are destined to be together."

An idea suddenly came to Jun Moli's mind.

He pondered, considering whether to implement this idea.

"Speaking of which, Mr. Mo Li, why do you want to be the best swordsman in the world, and why are you so persistent in doing so?"

Yuan Xi suddenly asked.

Jun Moli came back to his senses and asked, "Couldn't it be that I just wanted to do this?"

Yuan Xi nodded and said, "Of course, that way, you'll look even more impressive, having persevered with your own will to realize your childhood dream."

Jun Moli laughed, then shook his head: "...Actually, it's not something I want to do. This is my father's last wish."

Upon hearing this, Yuan Xi nodded, and then seemed to suddenly realize: "Mr. Mo Li, you too?"

"Yeah, wait, also?"

Jun Moli looked at Yuan Xi with a subtle expression.

Is there really such a deep fate?

Yuan Xi nodded:

"Becoming Tenho Rinha is a goal I want to achieve for myself."

"But in fact, it was originally my father's expectation of me. Although I didn't want to, I was always a little lazy."

What this means is that Yuan Xi was not as hardworking as she is now, and it was the unexpected events that led to the current situation.

Yuan Xi said with a lost tone, "Mr. Mo Li, do you know anything about me?"

Jun Moli nodded: "I probably know."

"Including my father's disappearance?"

"..."

Starting from zero frame, there is no way to avoid it.

Jun Moli could only listen silently.

Yuan Xi smiled and shook her head:

"Actually, there's nothing I can't tell you. It's just that one day, while on a mission, I suddenly disappeared."

"I don't know whether he's dead or alive, leaving me to live alone."

"..."

Jun Moli remained silent.

He didn't ask questions like "Where is your mother?", after all, every detail showed that Yuan Xi and his father depended on each other.

Since only father and son depend on each other, the question of where Yuan Xi's mother goes becomes insignificant.

Whether it is an accidental death or leaving home.

It is not appropriate to mention it in front of Yuan Xi at this time.

So where's your mother?

[I think I know why my second brother accepted him as his apprentice...]

[All the elements are complete, it's like it grew on my second brother's XP.]

[A father who has a personality like an older brother, has ambitious goals, is willing to take action, is hardworking and motivated, and has a high probability of being killed...]

[In his later years, Zhu Yuanzhang encountered a young woman who looked like Empress Ma and handed him a sesame cake. What a coincidence!]

[So, could this be a trap set for my second brother?]

The two chatted for a while, and the more Jun Moli talked, the more he felt that this boy was destined to be with him, but he felt more and more embarrassed to continue.

His father disappeared, his mother died young, and he studied hard.

This is how Yuan Xi’s experience can be summarized.

There’s no way to continue this conversation!

So Jun Moli could only hope that the group of people who had their eyes on the Mingxiao Lantern would come and meet him soon.

Perhaps Jun Moli's prayers were effective, because after a while, the contact person mentioned in the intelligence appeared with a group of treasure thieves.

Well, whether it is a real treasure-hunting group remains to be seen.

When Jun Moli was escorting goods in the past, he had encountered thieves similar to the Treasure Stealing Group before.

The images of those thieves and these treasure-hunting groups...are a bit disjointed.

"The treasure-stealing group... should be bandits similar to thieves. Logically, they should have a bit of a rough and tumble aura..."

"But these people...are neat and disciplined."

"Are they really a group of treasure thieves?"

Jun Moli looked at the orderly treasure-stealing group beside the contact person, and the more he looked, the more he felt that it was a disguise.

It looks a bit like the Qianyan Army.

But without evidence, he didn't speak directly.

Anyway, whether it is true or not, we will find a way to verify it later.

At this time, the contact person opened the empty box prepared in advance by Qianyan Army. Because he needed to inspect the goods, he opened it directly after the transaction.

"Huh? Empty?"

"Where are the things? Have you dealt with them?"

The contact person looked at the empty box and asked.

Yuan Xi frowned and said:

"It sounds like you don't care whether we have the stuff or not. What you care about is whether those things are still in the warehouse in Liyue Harbor."

“…This is not part of the contract.”

The contact person looked displeased: "You just need to tell me, have you completed your work according to the contract?"

"Or... are you planning to breach the contract?"

The treasure-stealing group next to the contact person looked unfriendly.

Yuan Xi raised a wooden stick on her toes and shouted, "I have never made a contract with you!"

Jun Moli held the Chengxiao Sword, thought about it, and finally chose not to draw the sword, but to hold the sword and the scabbard together.

[Details, Chengxiao Sword with scabbard.]

[Second brother is worried about sending him away.]

Second Brother: I don’t want to bully others.

So if you're going to fight, why bother pretending to make a deal? Are you betting they won't inspect the goods?

Ying and Paimon rushed out from the bushes nearby.

No matter how slow the contact person was, he could tell that it was an ambush, and immediately called on the treasure-stealing team to take action and launch a siege.

A chaotic battle broke out.

As soon as they started, not only Jun Moli, but even Paimeng could see that these "treasure-stealing groups" were in disguise.

Normal treasure-hunting groups don’t have this much force.

The individual soldiers are slightly inferior to the Qianyan Army, but they are not someone that an ordinary treasure-stealing group can challenge. The two sides are not on the same level.

Moreover, they are well-disciplined and their movements are standard.

The treasure-stealing group, which started out halfway, can't be compared.

But unfortunately, not to mention that these "treasure-stealing groups" are worse than the Qianyan Army, even the real Qianyan Army would not be able to do anything to Ying or Jun Moli without forming a formation.

After a while, a group of people were beaten to the point of opening their mouths and closing their eyes.

The contact person retreated immediately.

Yuan Xi, sweating profusely, raised his wooden stick and was about to chase after him, but was stopped by Jun Moli.

"...Mr. Mo Li?"

"There's someone behind us, let him lead the way."

Jun Moli said concisely.

Apart from the fact that they can't form a formation, the gap between these people and the Qianyan Army is not that big. They are most likely private soldiers.

Since they are private soldiers, it means there is someone behind them.

Put one back and follow the clues to solve the problem more efficiently.

So the group began to pursue him in a big way.

Chase to the foot of Tianheng Mountain.

The contact person ran into a secret place, and everyone followed closely behind.

In the secret realm, there are private soldiers everywhere disguised as treasure-stealing groups.

"You can't force your way in, you'll be discovered."

Ying and Paimon stopped the other two.

Then she said that it was not appropriate to force her way in at this time, and the best way was to sneak in secretly.

Then an awkward situation arises.

"I won't lurk."

"I haven't learned yet."

One big and one small said.

Jun Moli had learned swordsmanship and escorting, but he knew nothing about lurking, so he said frankly that he couldn't do it.

You have a latent interest in the Qianyan Army’s courses, but Yuan Xi is not old enough to learn them, so he doesn’t know how to do it.

【It's a rare time when Second Brother is unreliable. 】

[My second brother has always been a head-on fighter. He's never played stealth, so it's normal that he can't do it.]

[No, it turns out the Qianyan Army can teach people how to hide.]

[I'm a potential student, but I haven't started learning yet.jpg]

Helplessly, Ying and Paimeng can only hide alone.

Before leaving, Ying told the two not to take any action until they heard from her, as she would send a message using the mechanical bird.

As for these two, Yingbi feels more at ease with Paimon.

She believed that without her news and without waiting for the mechanical bird, the two would never act rashly.

After all, Jun Moli is an adult.

So Jun Moli and Yuan Xi guarded the entrance to the secret realm.

Jun Moli looked at Yuan Xi and felt overwhelmed.

……

Ying and Paimeng successfully bypassed the patrols and went deep into the secret realm. The two of them walked in cautiously.

As you step into the depths of the secret realm, a rotten and damp smell hits you in the face, and before you is a gloomy dungeon.

The dim firelight flickered in the corner of the dungeon like a will-o'-the-wisp, stretching the hideous shadows of the moss on the wall.

The iron bars of the cell were already rusted and flickered eerily in the dim light.

The ground was covered with puddles of water, and every step Ying took would cause small splashes of water to form, making crisp sounds in the silent dungeon.

Ying had to move forward cautiously.

Paimeng subconsciously followed suit and restrained his strength.

Then Ying looked at her with strange eyes.

Paimon then realized that he could fly.

Paimon resumed his usual movements and whispered, "I didn't expect there to be a dungeon inside this secret realm."

Ying's eyes flickered: "Dungeons are used to imprison people."

"I just don't know who's imprisoned here. My intuition tells me this probably isn't a good thing."

Ying thought about it, then took out the mechanical bird and started shaking people.

The two people outside can take action now.

She continued forward with Paimon.

Go deep into the dungeon.

"Ah~ah~"

A weak wail came from it.

Ying's eyes flashed, and she took Paimon to a corner to observe the situation deep in the dungeon.

The dark and damp dungeon was filled with a pungent stench of decay. The torches on the walls flickered, emitting a weak and flickering light, barely illuminating the gloomy space.

The middle-aged man was dressed in luxurious clothes, wearing a jewel-studded robe and an exquisite hair crown, with an expression of indifference and arrogance on his face.
