Genshin Impact: The Road to Reversal

"I'm sorry, that's the rule. Please forgive me."

"That's right. If you have any opinions, please tell our superiors."

The two guards walked towards Karen, their guns loaded. If the other party tried to escape or resist, they would shoot without hesitation.

"What are you doing?"

At this moment, a voice came from behind the city gate. Everyone turned around and looked. At this moment, a woman with short white hair and wearing casual jeans stood in front of them.

"Lord Obsidian, it's you." The guards turned around and said politely.

The woman walked over to the guard and said, "Well, what's going on? I heard you guys arguing when I got here."

"Oh, it's this mercenary lady." The guard looked at Kailin behind him again, "We detected that she was carrying a large amount of arms. Since she doesn't have a local permit, we are about to arrest her."

"Is that so?" Hei Yao looked at Kailin coldly. She observed him carefully from head to toe. Suddenly, she noticed Yue Tianlang next to her. "Yues... ahem, isn't this Mr. Tianlang? What brings you to the City of Sin this time?"

Seeing Hei Yao's change of attitude, Tian Lang smiled and replied, "Yes, Miss Hei Yao. Long time no see. I came here to do something, but when we were crossing the mountains and rivers, my companion lost his permit, so what happened now has happened."

"I see." Hei Yao nodded in understanding, then looked at the two guards beside him again, "You two, Mr. Tianlang is my friend, and these four are his personal guards. I can vouch for this young lady, so please let her go."

The guard was a little surprised and asked, "Ah? But Lord Obsidian, we..."

"How dare you disobey what I say?" Hei Yao crossed his arms in front of his chest and said in a threatening tone.

"Ah? No, we're just worried about what might happen if the higher-ups blame us..."

Hei Yao lowered his clenched fist and said, "Don't worry, I'll explain everything to Clorinde. Are you relieved now?"

"Well, since Lord Hei Yao says so..." The guard nodded, then looked at Kailin beside him, "You can go in. Remember not to cause trouble once you enter the city. Be careful. Compared to other cities, this place is much more dangerous."

"Oh, okay!" Kailin responded immediately.

After everyone entered the city and was away from the city gate, Hei Yao stopped.

"Alright, no one should be able to hear us here." Hei Yao turned to look at Tian Lang and asked, "Excuse me, Master Yue Sheng, but what brings you to the City of Sin this time, and who are these people?"

She looked at Mo Yan and the others, and Tianlang told the truth without hiding anything.

"Well, it's a long story. These friends of mine are from outside the world of Teyvat. You should have heard about the photopsia incident a while ago. They helped me with advice and avoided the loss."

"I see. Then why are you here?" Hei Yao asked again.

"They came from outside this world and definitely need to go back, but they don't have a direction at the moment, so I suggested that they come here to look for the evil spirits and see if I can help them find a way back." Having said that, Tianlang asked again, "Oh, by the way. Hei Yao, you are his contractor, so do you know where Yao Hui is now?"

"Master Evil?" Hei Yao lowered his head and thought for a moment. "I'm sorry, I don't know. You should also know this. Master comes and goes without a trace. We can't see him just because we want to."

"Well, all right then."

Hei Yao added, "Excuse me, Master Yuesheng, but since you and Master Evil are both guardians, you should be able to sense the bond between you."

Tianlang nodded and replied, "Indeed, but unfortunately, you know I'm a half-baked person in the Guardian. In order to treat my aphrodisiac syndrome, I've overused my strength, and now it's sometimes there and sometimes not. I don't think even he can sense my presence, let alone me."

"No, you two have talked for so long, do you really know each other?" At this time, Kailin, who was left aside, walked between the two of them and complained.

Tianlang finally reacted and replied, "Oh, I almost forgot. This is Hei Yao. She is the second wolf-man to sign a contract with the evil spirit after William Neil. Since she is a mixed-blood, the people here don't know about her."

"Ah, you said Miss Obsidian is a werewolf?" Kailin looked at Obsidian in disbelief.

Hei Yao nodded and said, "That's right. Don't look at me like this. I'm actually hundreds of years old. You came from Wolf Mountain, so you should have met my elder brother and the others, right?"

"You mean Williams? We've actually met him. Although he's a bit fierce, he's a pretty nice guy."

Hearing this, Hei Yao chuckled softly and said, "Hehe, that's just how Big Brother is. Well, since you are friends of Lord Yue Sheng, you are also my guests. Welcome to the Black Territory. As the guard at the gate said, everything here is unlike other cities, so please be careful."

"Come with me, I'll take you to a nearby inn. Just as a courtesy host, I'll pay for your accommodation." Hei Yao turned around and walked towards the city.

Kailin stood there, looking at the backs of Tianlang and Heiyao, feeling helpless.

"Alas, he's called a god, but why do I think he doesn't have even the slightest bit of dignity?"

Whether it was Williams before or Obsidian now, no one showed any respect to him. They even chatted and laughed with him like ordinary friends. If you told others that he was a god, they would probably never believe it. And more importantly, as a god, he actually boldly admitted to his people that he was half-baked. This is unprecedented, no matter where he goes.

Mo Yan nodded subconsciously.

"Perhaps we think too highly of the gods."

At this point, Kailin became furious and instantly lost her temper.

"Really? Others who traveled through time all had systems and mascots, but here he's just a half-baked god. If it weren't for the Xuanyue Town incident, I would have suspected he was just a filler god."

"Don't say that. We are friends after all." Mo Yan said with a helpless smile. "Besides, he is not as you say. Didn't he just help us out of trouble because of his connections?"

"That's true, but it's still hard to imagine."

Mo Yan smiled, pushed Kailin, and said, "Okay, if you want to complain, you can do it later. If you don't catch up now, you'll get lost."

The two followed Tianlang and Heiyao into the city. Like Xuanyue, the architecture here was medieval. Perhaps due to differences in local management, the streets were deserted. It was just past noon, yet the silence was as dead as it had been during a photophobia.

"It's so quiet here." Kailin looked around and subconsciously leaned behind Mo Yan and said.

"Do our arms dealers get scared sometimes?" Mo Yan teased.

"I want you to take care of it!"

At this time, Hei Yao replied, "It's normal. This is your first time here, so you don't know much about this place yet. This was a concentration camp a thousand years ago, and even though it has evolved into a city, the smell of past crimes still lingers. Unless there's a market or a large parade, no one wants to go out on the streets and invite trouble."
