Genshin Impact: The Road to Reversal

Li Xuecheng knew that someone would come to rescue Li Xueqi, so he set up a clever trap to lure the rebels into the trap, and also arranged a tail on the way to escape, thinking that this way he could follow him to find the rebel camp and completely wipe it out.

This was just a good plan, but he never expected that Li Xueqi got lost.

To avoid the rain, she hid in a cave, but for some reason Li Xuecheng thought this place was the camp of the remaining resistance forces.

Alternating between pain and cold, the exhausted Li Xueqi gradually fell asleep in the cave. Suddenly, a pain in her body woke her up.

For some unknown reason, she felt her body swelling, as if it was about to explode. She endured the pain for a long time before it finally eased.

She subconsciously looked outside the cave. The rain had stopped, but there was also a commotion in the jungle opposite.

Li Xueqi walked out of the cave with tired steps. At this moment, she widened her eyes because the flag that appeared in the distance was the flag of her brother Li Xuecheng.

She wanted to run, but there was no shelter around and she had no way to retreat, so she had no choice but to go back to the cave and hide.

But the army surrounded the cave with a purpose, neither retreating nor advancing.

At this time, Li Xuecheng stood out.

"My sister, you have no way out now. If you know what's best for you, come out now. Perhaps as your brother, I can give you a quick death out of our brotherly love."

Looking at the movement outside the cave, Li Xueqi hesitated for a long time. She didn't know why Li Xuecheng caught up with her so quickly, but now she had no way to retreat. Even if she escaped, it would probably be of no use.

Suddenly, the feeling of exploding came again. She curled up her body and knelt on the ground, trying to endure it. After a moment, she staggered to her feet and walked out of the cave.

"What are you talking about? I'm the only one here..." She came out of the cave and whispered while leaning against the wall.

"Just you?" Li Xuecheng looked behind Li Xueqi. Although the cave was dark, he could easily see the scene inside from his angle. Looking at the mountain behind him, it was not as huge as he had imagined and could not accommodate many people.

She was right, the cave was only big enough for one person, and when he realized this, he was immediately furious.

"How is that possible? Didn't you say this was the rebel base?" He looked at the Sanu spy beside him angrily.

"No... That's right. I saw rebel signs on the road. How could there be no one there?"

Hearing this, Li Xueqi finally understood that this was all part of his plan, designed to lure them into the rebel camp without them noticing. However, in Li Xueqi's mind, the so-called rebel markings were merely a coincidence caused by exhaustion on a rainy night.

After learning about the situation, she felt a little happy because she was lost and Li Xuecheng did not find the rebels he was expecting, but she was also desperate because she had no way to retreat.

At this time, Li Xuecheng clenched his fists and sighed angrily.

"Forget it. It's already like this. Complaining is useless." He looked at the battered Li Xueqi and said, "Even without you, I can still wipe out these parasites."

He waved his hand and the soldiers beside him walked over slowly with swords and guns in hand.

She wanted to run, but the pain in her body prevented her from standing, and she finally stumbled and knelt on the ground.

Looking at Li Xueqi's expression, Li Xuecheng sneered and said, "Oh, what's the matter, my sister? You only think of asking for mercy now. It's a pity it's too late. From the moment you decided to go against me, you should have known that this day would come."

Li Xueqi endured the pain and knelt on the ground. She did not answer Li Xuecheng's question, but after a moment, she slowly asked with an angry look in her eyes: "Why? Why must it be like this? You were born into the royal family and have enjoyed endless wealth and glory, but why do you still do this, and with these despicable Sanu people!"

"Why? Of course it's because of money, my silly sister!" He laughed wildly. "Yes, as a member of the royal family, I'm surrounded by wealth and luxury, with all kinds of delicacies from land and sea, but should I be content with that? No, who would complain about having too much money? That old man always taught us to be content and frugal, but didn't he also obtain the throne by bribing ministers? If you want to blame someone, blame him for not passing the throne to me!"

"He clearly knew my character, but he still did it. You know what? I resisted at first, but since I took power, I've realized how awesome it feels! They often fear your authority, but if you just say a word, isn't that how those self-righteous, self-proclaimed loyalists die?"

"I enjoy the fun of it, admiring their funny and miserable faces, and trampling on their last dignity. Whenever I see this scene, I feel unprecedented comfort! And you should understand this feeling, right?" He looked at Li Xueqi, his face full of madness.

"So, you did all this just for the happiness you mentioned? You are simply crazy!" Li Xueqi roared, and this emotion made her pain even more intensified.

"You just realized it? Ever since that old man forced me onto the throne, I've gone crazy! Well, after all that talk, it's time to send you on your way."

Li Xuecheng made a gesture, and the two soldiers drew their guns and stabbed.

Li Xueqi closed her eyes tightly, enduring the pain and waiting for the release called death. At this moment, she felt so helpless and miserable. If she had known that her brother was so crazy, she should have come out earlier to guide everyone, so that...

"You...are angry?"

Suddenly, time seemed to stop around her. She stood still, and a voice loomed in her subconscious.

who is it?

"You don't need to know. You only need to know that I will take your place and, with the rage and blood in my heart, strangle all injustice."

In an instant, she grasped the oncoming spear blade with her bare hands. At this moment, Li Xueqi's entire aura changed...

"So what happened next?" Karen asked.

Li Xueqi shook her head and said, "I can't remember clearly. I only know that the subconscious mind named Xueqi replaced me as Li Xueqi. When I woke up again, I had returned to Aixiou. But when I opened my eyes, the first person I saw was the Holy Lord himself."

"He told me that while I was unconscious, Xue Qi killed Li Xuecheng and all of his men. The Holy Lord expended considerable effort to restrain my rage, and I nearly cleaved Xuefeng Ridge in two with my bloody claws as I lost control."

"Oh, no wonder we saw such a big scratch when we first went up the mountain. It turned out to be you who did it." Karen said.

Li Xueqi smiled softly and said, "Yes, it's still a little scary when I think about it now. Because of the blood infection, the veins of Xuefeng Ridge took a long time to repair. If the Saint hadn't stepped in to stop it at the time, I'm afraid Xuefeng Ridge wouldn't be the only one to suffer this."

"So, since then you have become a guardian under the recommendation of the Holy Lord?" Mo Yan asked.

"That's right, but he forced it on me. When he first discussed the issue of protection with me, I refused. But I didn't expect his methods to be even tougher than my father's." Li Xueqi smiled again, but her face soon became serious again. "But after that, the problems with the Sanu people followed one after another. If it weren't for Rex's help, I, a little girl..."

Looking at Li Xueqi's expression at the moment, Kailin shook her head helplessly, and then persuaded: "Okay, at least the result now is good, isn't it?"

"Indeed, but I still want to apologize again. My recklessness nearly got you buried with me. It seems that as a leader, I still need to control my emotions." She said with a helpless smile, then put on a meaningful expression, "People always think that bloodshed is cruel, but in my opinion, it is both true and false. In times of war, bloodshed is a very normal phenomenon, and sacrifice is inevitable. Don't be frightened by the sight of blood. Perhaps the beauty before your eyes is made up of countless such cruel realities. Maintaining awe for life is the basic attitude towards people."
