Yanfei was apologizing for Yelan's words, but Xiao ran too fast and could only convey her apology to Yingmei.

Yanfei felt that Yelan's words were not wrong, but they might be a bit too 'direct', and she was worried that they would displease Xiao.

But in reality, Xiao wouldn't get angry about it at all.

Yanfei, as Yelan's friend and someone who understands Yelan, tells the traveler the reason for Yelan's anger and her past experiences.

It turns out that Ye Lan was rescued by her comrades during an operation and was a survivor, but the comrade who saved her was left there forever.

[Yan Fei said, "Can a life that has been saved live without any burden? Receiving a favor is not such a simple matter."]

This statement is generally accepted, for a simple reason: everyone has heard Wendy's story.

Wasn't Hans a survivor who was rescued by Stanley?

Judging from Hans's reaction, Yelan's mindset is much better in comparison.

No wonder Ye Lan was angry back then; she certainly didn't want to encounter such a thing again.

After the two finished speaking, Yanfei left a protective magic circle for Yidou so that the travelers could enter the inner space together.

She planned to travel with the travelers because she was 'not good at martial arts'.

Lin Qiu also drew illustrations for this interior space. The most eye-catching thing is the huge disc suspended in the air, which is enormous.

Everyone understands the principle, but why is this disc so big?

The traveler remarked, "It's bigger than all of our heads put together..."

Fortunately, Lin Qiu drew the illustrations; otherwise, based solely on Yingmei's words, it would have been impossible to grasp the size of the disc, since none of the people present were tall and had large heads; they were all quite short.

Originally, the highest-ranking fighter fell into a coma due to being "unsociable," and now the highest-ranking fighter is Ye Lan.

As for this disc, it might be the 'Taiwei Instrument Disc' that Yanfei is looking for. The problem now is how to take it away since it's so big?

Is it too late to invite Shen He, this 'tall and strong woman' who can lift a tripod?

We need to get out of here first. For now, we can only investigate. It just so happens that quite a few 'treasure-stealing groups' have appeared in this space. Let's see what's going on.

Character Voice Lines - Yelan: About 'Stanley'

“His experience is similar to mine... but I am not trapped in the ‘past’ because I will move forward with them.”

Chapter 382 Three Letters

The treasure-hunting group within the space is certainly not 'the real person'; they are merely a part of Yan Fei's memories.

As a top lawyer, Yan Fei has been involved in many big cases, so naturally, wealthy people have sought revenge on her. These treasure-hunting gangs were hired to take revenge.

This caused the people of Liyue to frown, as they were very worried about the safety of Attorney Yanfei.

Yan Fei has helped them a lot with their cases; she's a good person.

Fortunately, Yan Fei is a half-immortal and has been practicing martial arts for many years, making it difficult for ordinary people to get close to her. She can handle these treasure-hunting groups all by herself.

The people of Liyue relaxed, no longer worried, as even a hundred or so burly men couldn't get close to them.

After dealing with the treasure-hunting gang, the group found a letter with a line of text written on it.

[Letter 1: I borrowed paper and pen from Lord Boyang to write a letter home, but I don't know what to write... I hope everyone in my hometown is doing well. I miss my daughter very much.]

Readers realize that this space not only presents people's 'memory', but also 'real things'.

This place once trapped a group of people, but for some unknown reason. Readers are filled with curiosity: Who is the letter writer? And why is he here?

With curiosity, the traveler carefully read the letter, then turned the Taiwei Dial, revealing a new entrance. Entering it, he found another letter.

[Letter Two: Written on behalf of Brother Hulan, wishing his family good health. If it weren't for this incident, I would have liked to go back for the Lantern Festival.]

The people of Liyue felt sad, as they had just celebrated the Lantern Festival not long ago.

They had just finished experiencing the peace and joy of the festival when they witnessed the sorrow of their ancestors from a hundred years ago who could not return home.

Their sacrifice was so that future generations could peacefully celebrate the Lantern Festival time and time again, but they also had regrets in their hearts, regrets that they could not see whether Liyue was peaceful and whether their families were safe.

Moreover, since this was written by someone else, it means that the person either couldn't write or had already passed away.

"The largest lantern of the night... I really must make one for you." Xianyun suddenly said out of the blue, as if he were speaking to Shen He.

Shen He was puzzled, and Xian Yun offered no explanation, only gazing in the direction of the layered rocks.

May the light of this lamp be enough to illuminate the underground palace and guide you home.

After putting away the letter, the group continued forward; this time, there were no enemies.

No, it's not that there are no enemies, but that the enemies are good at hiding. Xiao instantly recognized the other party's identity—Fu She!

【???:“I led you to the underground space because I discovered your weakness.”】

"Die here with me!"

From Fushe's words, the reader learns that those who came here were not accidentally trapped like travelers, but rather entered this space on their own initiative.

Xiao's eyes dimmed slightly in reality; this was the unexpected end.

Fushe was a proud warrior; his death should not have been left unsaid!

No, that's not right. To die in battle, to protect Liyue, Fushe would probably feel his death was worthwhile...

Now that Lin Qiu has written this story, more people will see Fu She's deeds. He is not an unknown demon, but the Grand Marshal of the Tengshe—Fu She!

This is also one of Lin Qiu's purposes in writing the book: to bring those stories that should have been seen by more people into the lives of all the Teyvat people, because they should not have been buried.

In the story, Xiao and Fushe fought. Fushe was merely a wisp of obsession left behind by the Taiwei Instrument, and his strength was naturally inferior to Xiao's. After several battles, he was already showing signs of fatigue.

Fushe shouted, "...Go! I'll cover their retreat. Don't let the monsters return to the surface!"

Even though he was exhausted, Fu She was not afraid at all. He ordered the others to retreat, while he planned to use his life to hold off the 'enemy' and buy time for his comrades to retreat.

Fu She said, "Remember, everyone hold the two-hundred-mile front line outside the layered cliffs!"

Just that one sentence brought tears to the eyes of the people of Liyue. Two hundred miles of battlefront!

They held their line to the death! The Thousand Rock Army did it! Not a single one of them retreated!

As mentioned before, the achievements of the Thousand Rock Army have never been killing, but protecting.

Zhongli frowned, unaware that the tea in front of him had gone cold. He took a sip and then sighed softly.

The impact of this story on him was even greater than the exposure of his faked death plan.

Even he was unaware of some of the details in the story, as he was still in Kanria at the time.

Wendy glanced at Zhongli furtively and pushed the wine toward him; it was still warm.

Zhongli didn't refuse and took a small sip.

Wendy chuckled. "Alcohol is a good thing, isn't it? I like to drink when I'm feeling down."

"Haha, but I think I've been drinking the whole time, hehehe."

Gui Zhong carried a cup of wine on a sandy backside, drank it all in one gulp, and the spiciness made her open her mouth wide and close her eyes.

Unfortunately, the spiciness only affected her throat, not her brain. The image she was imagining was still so vivid, and tears were about to stream down her face. Yes, it must have been spicy.

Returning to the story, Xiao eventually dispelled the illusion. During the battle, he hesitated to strike many times, which was the reason for his previous injury.

What we just saw was not Fushe, but a memory left behind in this space, belonging to Fushe. Therefore, it cannot communicate; it merely reproduced Fushe's posture during the battle.

Even if it's just a memory, 'Fushe's' martial arts skills are enough to amaze people.

Tengshe Taiyuanshuai Fushe eventually became an unnamed yaksha fighting here.

At that time, Fushe's memory had likely been erased by karmic obstacles, and his thinking was even unclear, but he still staggered to this battlefield.

Xiao sighed, "Yakshas are never a race that can thrive in peaceful times; they are more likely to be drawn to the atmosphere of fighting and killing."

"We are masters of killing... perhaps, all we know is killing."

Seeing that Xiao's words almost triggered 'DNA', Arecino would give guidance to any child in the Hearth House who had the same idea.

Besides killing, there are also family members!

Wait... thinking about it carefully, Xiao doesn't seem to have any family anymore... those Yakshas are all gone...

In short, readers still want to refute this: Who said that? Didn't you "fit in very well" in the previous story about the Lantern Festival?

This shows that Yaksha can survive well in peacetime; he's just an introverted 'person'.

Readers may not know that, apart from Xiao, the other guardian yakshas are not actually introverted and are better able to 'integrate' into the peaceful era.

It's a pity that the Yaksha, who wanted to see peace and integrate into humanity, didn't survive.

Only the wind, which is most elusive and cannot be held onto, continues to blow.

Xiao said, "That was a very good battle. Goodbye, Fushe."

It's unclear whether the battle he referred to was a battle against him or a battle against the towering cliffs and abyss.

At the same time, the group found the third letter:

It's been more than ten days since I got separated from Boyang and the others. But the brother next to me said it's only been three days... I don't know who's right and who's wrong, and I don't want to argue about it. I want to go home, but I can't.

Another Qianyan soldier who misses home. They are never afraid of death, but while waiting for death, they are afraid of the feeling of constantly missing their loved ones.

Chapter 383 Boyang's Letter

Readers are already missing Ichito. Without Ichito, the story has become increasingly depressing. The cheerful boy who brought 'sunshine' is gone.

The group in the book continued forward and found the fourth letter, which said that the ferocious beast trapped there had lost its ability to move, and that they were becoming increasingly exhausted.

Everyone misses home, and perhaps it is because of this longing that this area has become like 'hometown'.

This confirms everyone's suspicions: time stands still in this place, but it allows fatigue to accumulate, which is even more pronounced for creatures from the abyss.

The 'Boyang' mentioned in the letter is Yelan's ancestor; her ancestor was not called 'Yaksha'.

When Yelan's ancestors went to the battlefield, one of them returned insane, while Boyang was the one who did not return.

Ye Lan said, "I have a feeling... the clues are all connected, and we'll find out the truth sooner or later."

"However, it's unclear in what form this space intends to provide the answer."

Yes, readers are also very curious about how Qiu Cheng will answer the question.

Is it a novel, or just another 'comic strip'?

The group continued forward, and this time the space transformed into a part of an abyss.

[Ye Lan: "There's an aura of the abyss, but... there's no opponent?"]

Pass it on, Yelan said she had no rivals in the abyss.

There were indeed no enemies here; instead, the traveler's brother, Sora, appeared.

In reality, Yingmei's eyes widened in surprise. Fortunately, her brother disappeared after she went back in the story, so it was probably just a phantom of her memory, not the real person. She breathed a sigh of relief.

Wait, what am I relieved about? It's all Lin Qiu's fault. I was afraid my brother would get stabbed after he showed up.

In the story, Yingmei failed to catch up with her brother, but she discovered the Taiweiyi Pan. It wasn't the large Taiweiyi Pan in the sky, but a small Taiweiyi Pan that could be held in one's hand.

They dug and dug inside the large instrument panel, and finally found this small instrument panel.

Yan Fei was looking for this 'magic weapon', and coincidentally, Ye Lan knew quite a bit about it and knew how to operate it.

However, since the Taiwei Instrument Plate had been used before, it would take some time to unlock it, so the group left the secret realm first.

[Ye Lan: "Within Yin and Yang, within the Five Directions. Water, fire, wind, and thunder, endlessly cycle. Holding the Seven Stars on Earth, the Three Gates open, the meridians and parallels are connected..."]

The reader cannot understand it, but the Taiweiyi disc has been unraveled, and a notebook is found inside.

My name is Boyang. I record everything I know here, so that future generations may read these words and know my experiences.

Everyone still remembers who Boyang is; he was mentioned in the notes of the Qianyan Army.

My younger brother Rong Zhao and I, following the orders of the Seven Stars, carried the Taiwei Instrument and rushed to the Layered Rock Abyss to support the soldiers of the Thousand Rock Army.

However, the beasts here are extremely ferocious, and our group suffered heavy casualties. If it weren't for the Yaksha's intervention, even my younger brother and I would have perished on the spot.
