Genshin Impact: I am the Great General of Liyue

Chapter 253 Where Does the Lamp Come From?

Although Boss Filgott is of Mondstadt blood, she is very knowledgeable about all sorts of things in Liyue.

Tell me, how did the shopkeeper of [Huai'an], who's almost bald, manage to marry such a beautiful Mondstadt woman?

"If you want to participate, it's not too late to go now. Also..."

After listening to Boss Philgold's explanation, Ying turned to leave, but was stopped by the word "there is more".

(Is he... going to make me run errands again?)

Ying hesitated, cold sweat breaking out on her brow, and asked, "Is there more?"

There's no other way; I can't just neglect the boss, can I?

Seeing this, Boss Fei said, "If possible... um... why don't we try inviting Xiao along? We're not close, so it's not really appropriate for me to ask him. But I see you guys seem to have gotten to know each other a bit, so perhaps..."

Ying breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this. So, she wanted to invite Xiao to celebrate the festival with her.

However, Xiao is currently eating grilled tigerfish and reminiscing about the past, so he probably isn't in a good mood.

Is it really appropriate to invite him now?

Ying showed a bitter expression and hesitated.

"But, considering Xiao's current mood..."

Paimon nodded and said, "Yeah, it really wouldn't be good to bother him these next few days..."

Upon seeing this, the Filipino boss showed a regretful expression.

Ying and Paimon also showed some sadness, and Boss Fei quickly composed himself upon seeing this.

"Really... It's alright! I was just saying that offhand. You should hurry to Liyue Harbor. If you go too late, the town will be packed with people, and it will be difficult to find anything to do. Go on your way, and have a great time at the Lantern Festival!"

At this time, Liyue Harbor is decorated with colorful decorations everywhere.

The pier below Feiyunpo was already decorated with all sorts of colorful decorations.

Looking out the window, Huiyuan could see dozens or even hundreds of lanterns floating in the sky.

Children play and frolic, sharing their toys.

It seems the festival has officially begun.

Hui-yuan, who lost a vital organ last night, seemed out of place in this atmosphere and appeared very sad.

It's sad as it is, but we can't just skip the holiday, can we?

Touching her smooth skin, Huiyuan cheered up.

"So what if I'm a girl? It's not like Sister Tongzi won't let me turn back. At worst, I'll just treat it as role-playing, like cosplaying an anime character. Anyway... I should go find Ningguang to wish her a Happy New Year... and ask for a red envelope first."

Even without the Jade Pavilion, Liyue in the sky remains incredibly charming.

Ningguang is suffering, first dealing with Ocel and the other immortals, then repairing the damage to the port, and now she has to deal with all the things to do for the Lantern Festival.

I was so sleepy; I hadn't had a rest in ages.

There was a knock on the door of Ningguang's temporary office at Yuehaiting...

"Enter."

Huiyuan opened the door and walked in.

Happy New Year, my Ningguang!

"Uh...who are you...?"

Upon seeing Huiyuan's little face, Ningguang didn't react immediately.

Who is this? Where did this pretty little girl come from?

"It's me! Huiyuan."

"Huiyuan...? How come you've changed your appearance again?"

"Sigh... It's a long story, but I'm too lazy to explain."

At this moment, the little black cat Mimi emerged from the leisurely cave.

She yawned and jumped onto Ningguang's desk.

Upon seeing the black cat, Ningguang's suspicious gaze dissipated.

"Alright. Then... how would you be addressed in this form?"

"Just call me by my real name... um... or..."

As she pondered, Huiyuan remembered the nickname Ying had given her last night.

"Call me Xiaoyuan? Yuanbao? Little Yuanyuan?"

Ningguang's brows relaxed, and she looked at Huiyuan's chest with slight interest, a slight smile playing on her lips.

"How about I call you... Sister Yuan?"

"Okay, Ningguang-jie~ Well... since I'm calling you 'jie' now, about the red envelope I mentioned before..."

Ningguang pulled out a festive red Mora bag and gave a wicked smile.

"Give."

With a slurp of his lips, Huiyuan swiftly accepted the red envelope.

"May you be magnanimous, sister! May you enjoy good health and all your wishes come true!"

"Thanks for your kind words. By the way, our ammunition is almost gone, and we've broken a few guns... and the Senzu Beans too..."

Seeing that Ningguang had brought up the matter, Huiyuan took out a box and placed it on the table.

"Recite the incantation to activate the box and make it grow larger. Remember to find an open space, as this box can be tens of meters tall when it grows larger. The incantation is written on the bottom of the box."

Ningguang picked up the box, examined it, and nodded, naturally knowing that the gun and supplies were inside.

At this moment, Huiyuan took out a set of cosmetics.

If you want to know why Huiyuan has cosmetics, you'll have to ask Sister Tongzi.

"This is a set of skincare and cosmetics. Look at Ningguang, her hair is all gray and her skin is rough. She must have been staying up late every day lately. Here, this is for you."

"Hmm...? My hair is naturally white, isn't it? And my skin isn't rough, is it? I take care of it every day."

"Oh, never mind that, do you want this skincare and beauty set?"

"Hmph... I want it. Speaking of which, besides the red envelope, I have something else to give to you, Sister Yuan."

"Oh? What?"

As she spoke, Ningguang clapped her hands, and two Thousand Rock Army soldiers entered from outside the door.

Qianyan Jun carried the box, put it down with difficulty, and then left on his own.

What could be inside a box that takes two strong men to lift...?

Ningguang smiled slightly and said, "Shall we open it and take a look?"

Seeing this, Huiyuan slowly opened the box.

The box radiated a golden light, as if some peerless treasure was about to be born, which was very eye-catching.

Gold and silver jewels came into view, but what was placed in the center of these jewels was even more astonishing.

Various jewels serve as embellishments, highlighting the preciousness of the central item.

This item shocked Huiyuan.

"how?"

When Ningguang's questioning voice came, Huiyuan finally came to her senses.

The central item is a box, which radiates supreme divine power.

Through system analysis, it was discovered that this contained fragments of the remains of an immortal.

The fact that Ningguang sent Huiyuan was completely unexpected.

Seeing that Huiyuan did not answer for a long time, Ningguang took the initiative to speak.

"This contains an item from the immortals. You should know why I'm giving it to you, right?"

"I don't know. Wait, why did you give me this?!"

Seeing Huiyuan's shock, whether feigning ignorance or pretending to be confused, Ningguang smiled gently.

"In my dream, I heard a voice asking me to convey a message to you. But before I could understand what the message was, I woke up. When I woke up... this box was in my arms..."
