Genshin Impact: The Road to Reversal

Kailin's pupils suddenly constricted, and her throat felt as if an invisible hand were strangling her. She instinctively took a half step back, but bumped into Mo Yan's shoulder. Unbeknownst to her, the silent swordsman had already stood in front of her, his thumb resting on the hilt of his sword, a cold gleam faintly visible within the sheath.

"Heh..." Ye Lan suddenly chuckled, and the Shadow Viper melted back into the floor. "It was just a joke. However, I can't guarantee that all the members of the Fallen Angel Brigade's secret gang have left. After all, the city has been in turmoil for a while now."

As she finished speaking, her fingertips tapped lightly on the counter. Shadows swirled around her, as if ready to transform into deadly venomous snakes. Her gaze flickered between Kailin and Mo Yan, a faint smile playing at the corners of her mouth.

"Don't worry, we're just going out to relax. We won't cause any trouble." Mo Yan stood up. His right hand still on the hilt of the sword, he responded calmly.

Ye Lan chuckled and closed the notebook in her hand: "I hope so. But don't worry, my shadow servants will be watching from the dark and will not act rashly unless necessary. But if you take the initiative to cause trouble, I will not clean up the mess for you."

Kailin curled her lips and was about to retort, but Mo Yan grabbed her wrist and dragged her out.

"Let's go. There's no point in arguing with information dealers." He lowered his voice.

The two left the inn, and Ye Lan sat alone in front of the stage. She leaned on the table with one hand, tilting her face to the side, and said with a faint smile, "Information dealer... Indeed, here, almost everyone calls me that."

After a moment's silence, she spoke again: "Then I'll leave it to you, Huang."

As soon as he finished speaking, a nearly half-naked, white-haired man walked out of the kitchen. He folded his arms in the shadows and smiled slightly, "Don't worry, Big Sister, I will keep an eye on these guests."

The man was casually wearing a light gray leather coat, his left shoulder armor resembled a wolf's head, and a strangely shaped scimitar hung at his waist. He leaned lazily against the door frame, his amber pupils gleaming with a beastly glimmer in the dim light.

Ye Lan chuckled and said, "Don't mess around. They are our guests after all, and Lord Tianlang is here too. Just like I said just now, let's indulge them a little."

"Oh? Is this really okay?" the man asked, tilting his head.

"Of course, they are smart people. No matter what, they will not be stupid enough to seek trouble for themselves. Besides, if an accident really happens, with the speed of "Lightning", they can feel it instantly even if they are a hundred meters away, right?" Ye Lan smiled and looked at the man with a kind look.

"That's true, alright." The man stretched, and his bones made a crisp sound.

At the same time, on the street, Karen sighed from time to time, looking at the eyes gathered around her, feeling disgusted.

"Are you kidding me? I can't be at peace unless I relax." She folded her arms and sighed again.

Mo Yan stood aside and shook his head: "Who told you to come out?"

"It's because the room is too stuffy, and those people even arranged for me to stay in the room those guys used to stay in. It makes me uncomfortable just thinking about it!"

As she spoke, she suddenly stopped and glanced at the beams, dark alleys, and various dark places behind her.

"These guys are really following us." She said with her hands on her hips.

Mo Yan shrugged. "During certain periods, be considerate. Otherwise, just treat them as bodyguards. Besides surveillance, their responsibilities are the same."

"You accepted it pretty quickly." She glanced at herself with a look that was both helpless and a bit teasing.

Mo Yan spread his hands and said, "What else? Fight with them? Don't forget, this is their territory."

Kailin curled her lips, but ultimately, she could only accept her fate and continue walking forward. Most of the shops on both sides of the street were closed, and the occasional pedestrians passing by were hurried and looked at her warily.

"Tsk, this atmosphere is even more depressing than a prison." Kailin muttered softly.

"After all, the Fallen Angel Troupe just caused trouble, and no one wants to be the next victim." Mo Yan responded in a low voice.

When the two were walking around the corner, suddenly, a "citizen" in a cloak rushed out from the side. He ran so fast that he almost collided head-on with Karen.

boom!

Wow!

"Who is it? Don't you look at the road when you walk? Hey?" Karen staggered back after being knocked. She was about to get angry, but was suddenly stunned by the other person's dress.

"Oh, sorry, I was too impatient."

The man's voice was weak and helpless. His hair was disheveled, his cloak was tattered, and his handsome face was about his own age.

"This outfit... could he be a homeless person?" Mo Yan wondered.

Kailin adjusted her mentality, then immediately leaned over and helped the man in front of her up.

"Hey, are you okay?"

"I'm fine, big sister, I just bumped into you accidentally, I really didn't mean it..." The man was timid and behaved very humblely.

At this moment, Mo Yan folded his arms and jokingly said, "Looks like you scared me quite a bit."

"You're such a mouthful." Kailin lowered her voice and roared, then looked at the homeless boy in front of her again, "Don't mind it. I admit that I was rude just now, but you don't have to keep doing this."

"Hey? Really? Big sister, you don't blame me?" The cloaked boy looked a little pitiful, which made Karin even more at a loss.

She scratched her head, her tone softening unconsciously: "Of course I don't blame you! But you, running so fast, did you run into some trouble?"

The boy twisted the corner of his clothes awkwardly. "No...nothing. I just want to find a place to camp quickly. It's been a bit uneasy here lately, so I've been looking for a safe place."

"Sleeping outdoors? Didn't you join?" Mo Yan asked.

The cloaked boy lowered his head and was silent for a moment: "My home... was destroyed a long time ago."

"How pitiful." Kailin flinched, a look of pity in her eyes. "I never thought there would be homeless people in such a developed city."

"Stop, stop, stop. Can you please not let your saintly heart get out of control at this time?" Mo Yan said anxiously.

"What? People are in such a miserable state, do you have any sympathy at all?" She put her hands on her hips and said angrily.

Upon hearing this, Mo Yan slapped his forehead instantly, showing a bit of helplessness.

Just at this moment, the sound from the boy's stomach directly broke the atmosphere.

Gululu~

"Oh, sorry." The cloaked boy immediately hugged his stomach, looking a little embarrassed.

"Are you hungry? Why don't we go get something to eat? There's a snack bar right next to it." Karen looked at the sign of the farm house nearby, turned around and was about to lead the boy over.

That's when.

"Hey, wait a minute."

"Tsk, what on earth do you want to do?" Karen turned back impatiently.

But Mo Yan folded his arms and said, "Are you planning on just going in like this? Two outsiders leading a homeless person, and considering the current situation, are you sure the owner will let you in like this?"

"Ah, that's true..." Kailin patted her head as she suddenly realized, "Then what do you say we should do?"

"It's simple. You go in alone and pack your bags."

"Oh, that's all." Kailin sighed angrily. Just as she was about to ask the boy, she suddenly paused when she heard a name. "By the way, what's your name?"

"Me?" The boy thought for a moment, "Everyone calls me An."

"Then I will call you Xiao An. Tell your sister if there is anything you want to eat?" Kailin said with a smile.

"Whatever you want to eat...just eat whatever you want. I'm not picky..." The boy shook his head slightly.

"Well, let me take a look at their signature dishes. Mo Yan, keep a close eye on Xiao An. If anything happens to him, I'll hold you accountable." She said in a threatening tone.
