Genshin Impact: The Road to Reversal

The figure slowly turned around. It was a young man. Looking at the crowd approaching him, he asked pointedly, "Looking for someone in the underworld? There are only dead people, and no living people. Who are you looking for?"

Kailin said hurriedly: "We are looking for our friend, his name is Mo Yan, have you seen him?"

The young man was stunned and replied, "Ah, how can I know who you are looking for just by saying the name? Don't you have any other physical characteristics?"

"Other characteristics..." Kailin and the others exchanged glances and answered haltingly, "Perhaps wearing mercenary uniforms like us? Or perhaps a young man around the same age as the one next to me?"

She looked at Yaohui and explained in vague words, but after talking for a long time, she didn't know what she said.

At this moment, a handsome young man came out from the back room, holding an iron saw in his hand, and his leather coat was covered with sawdust. It seemed that he had just been sawing wood and came out because he heard the noise.

"What's going on? Hey, buddy, are there any guests?" the man asked.

"Oh, boss, there are a few guests, but they are looking for someone," the waiter replied.

"Looking for someone?" The man looked at Yaohui and the others in confusion. "Looking for someone in this hellish place, I wonder if you've come to the wrong place?"

"Hey, what do you mean?" Karen was stunned.

Yaohui quickly explained, "We are indeed here to look for someone. Our companion came here by accident not long ago..."

So Yaohui told the man everything that happened in the world of the living and his purpose.

Upon hearing this, the young man's eyes flashed with a complex expression, then he lowered his head and smiled, "I see. It seems we have a truly remarkable guest. However, this is the underworld, and it's not easy to bring the souls of the deceased back to the living world."

"That self-proclaimed King of Hell, Hu Xiaotao, told us the same thing," Kailin said with a complicated expression. Then she sighed angrily, "Alas, is there really no other way?"

"Don't worry, we'll find a way," the man said with a soothing smile. "But the most urgent thing right now is that you all should find your friends first."

"That's true, but this place is so big, where can we find it?" Karen said a little disappointedly.

The man smiled and comforted them, "It's okay. Although I don't know where your friends are, perhaps I can do my best to help."

"Ah, boss, are you leaving?" the waiter asked in surprise.

"Yes, looking at the anxious looks on the committee members' faces, you can tell how worried they are about their companions. Although I can't bring their friends back to life, I should at least help them reunite." The man smiled, then took off his leather jacket and put down the tools in his hands.

Yaohui was a little surprised as he watched the other person approach him, but he still said calmly, "Thank you very much, but is this a bit of trouble, brother?"

The man shook his head and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter. I'm idle anyway. One more person means more strength, right?"

Yaohui sighed and said, "Okay, I just don't know what to call you, brother."

The man smiled softly: "Just call me 'Juechen'."

"Juechen? What a strange name." Kailin said in a low voice.

"Then Brother Juechen, I wonder where you will take us to find our friends." Yaohui asked.

"Lord Yaohui, don't worry, just follow me." With that, Juechen walked out of the house.

After everyone nodded to each other, Juechen left the coffin shop, leaving only the clerk in the shop in a daze.

"Strange, I remember the shopkeeper didn't seem to be very proactive in meeting guests."

……

Everyone followed Juechen on the road for a long time, but before they knew it, they had left the town.

"Wait a minute." Suddenly, Yaohui stopped.

"Huh? What's wrong?" Juechen turned around and asked.

"Mr. Juechen, although we are very grateful that you can help us, your actions are too suspicious." Yaohui said seriously.

"Oh, how do you say this?"

"It's simple. You and I are strangers to each other, and you also know that you and I are strangers to each other in the underworld. I can't understand why you, as a person from the underworld, would help us?"

Hearing this, Kailin was stunned: "Oh, no, can you please stop being suspicious at this time?"

"This is not suspicion, it is a reasonable judgment. You have to know that this is the underworld. For the undead here, the arrogance of the living is the most precious nourishment." Yaohui replied.

When she heard this, Kailin was almost scared.

Juechen smiled lightly: "Hehe, as expected, you are as sharp as the rumors in the world of the living say, Master Evil."

As soon as these words were spoken, Yaohui's nerves tensed up and he was ready for battle.

"But please rest assured. I'm just the owner of a coffin shop in the underworld. Helping you is my own free will. Please don't get me wrong." Juechen turned and looked ahead. "Just a few dozen miles ahead is the mining area in the underworld. That's where criminals gather. I can sense the presence of your companions there."

"Feeling?" Karen was stunned after hearing this.

Juechen nodded and said, "Yes, I actually have a talent. Whenever a wandering soul comes here for the first time, I can sense the moment of belonging to the world of the living from them. Although it is very brief, it is enough."

"You mean, Mo Yan is very likely in the mine in the underworld?" Karen asked.

Juechen nodded again: "Yes, as for why he came here, you should ask him."

After saying that, Juechen put down his hands and continued walking forward.

Yaohui stood where he was. Although he had some doubts in his heart, he had no choice but to follow for Mo Yan.

At the mine, Athens led Mo Yan among the crowd. Looking at the surrounding scene, he had an indescribable feeling.

Tsk, these people are all the Sangyang people who were worshipping Yufu Eijiro in the Anping Ghost Shrine. Weren't their souls devoured at that time? How come they are here again...

"It seems you recognize them." Athenus folded his arms and said, "Yes, these are the Sanyang people you saw before, but their souls are not complete. What you see now are just ghosts without consciousness and can be controlled by others."

"So why did you bring me here?" Mo Yan asked disdainfully.

"Come to relax. What's wrong? Normally, people in Teyvat would be very excited to see this kind of scene, but why are you..."

Before he finished speaking, a figure suddenly rushed towards Mo Yan in panic. When he came to his senses again, he felt a familiar embrace on his chest.

"Mo Yan! Great, I finally found you!"

"Ka…Kaylene?"
