"But the cult's messenger was repelled yesterday, so things should be relatively peaceful recently. You just need to follow from a distance, and don't get too close."

"Okay, Sister He, I will keep my distance."

Anyway, Ying and Paimeng only operate around Liyue Harbor, so it is easy for Li Mochen to protect them.

The next morning, Li Mochen arrived outside Ying's residence early.

It was still early, so he sat by the wall waiting for the princess to appear.

However, before the princess opened the door, an emergency flying saucer arrived - Paimon.

"Hey, isn't this the guardian general? Long time no see."

In the morning light, Paimeng appeared beside Li Mochen like a ghost, greeting him with a smile.

"Hey, isn't this the mysterious creature and suspicious snack Paimon? Long time no see."

“Who is this mysterious creature and suspicious snack?”

Hearing Li Mochen's answer, Paimeng stomped her feet in the air and couldn't help complaining.

However, her cuteness did not distract Li Mochen, but instead made him start asking more questions.

"Then tell me, what kind of creature are you? Human? Animal? God? Or an elemental creature?"

In fact, Li Mochen had wanted to ask Paimeng this question for a long time.

What is the origin of this strange creature?

According to Ying, she found Paimon by the river, but that sounds ridiculous.

How could a flying creature that can float freely in the air fall into a river? This reason is too far-fetched.

But since Paimon was always flying around with Ying, it was difficult to investigate further when Ying was present.

Now Li Mochen has a rare opportunity to face Paimeng alone and can finally ask questions.

“I am… a human being, I suppose.”

Faced with this question, Paimon's eyes dimmed slightly, but he still answered uncertainly.

"It's considered a human, but it's not a human. How can someone so small fly?"

"Well, you're really a stickler. Others wouldn't ask that kind of question."

"Isn't it because you did something to yourself? I guess you used some kind of spell to make people not suspect you?"

This...can you see this?

Li Mochen hit the nail on the head and Paimeng couldn't help swallowing his saliva.

Up to now, although Paimon has traveled around with Ying, there are almost no people who are interested in her.

Even though there is always such a little creature that looks neither human nor human around Ying, no one will doubt Paimeng.

What kind of creature is she? Is she dangerous?

People would never have such vigilant thoughts about her.

This is not entirely because Paimon looks harmless, but because she has some kind of strange barrier on her.

As long as this barrier exists, no one will question her existence.

No matter who Paimon appears in front of, that person will take her for granted and get along with her.

From this perspective, the barrier is like a kind of "confusing" spell.

Even false gods like the "Seven Rulers of the Earthly Realm" could not resist the influence of this divine spell.

However, Li Mochen vaguely sensed that Paimeng was abnormal, which was even more unusual in Paimeng's opinion.

Is this the special ability of "people from another world"?

He has no fate seat and is not affected by my magic spell?

To this day, Paimon's identity is known only to her.

She stayed by Ying's side in a low profile, and naturally didn't want her identity to be exposed.

But faced with Li Mochen's persistent questioning, Paimeng didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Creak... Just then, accompanied by a slight sound, Ying pushed the door open and walked out.

"Wow, my friend of destiny, what a refreshing morning!"

Paimon seemed to have seen a savior. He immediately flew to Ying and spoke loudly with a smile.

"Hey, what are you two talking about? You seem to be so interested?"

Ying looked up and glanced at Li Mochen on the wall, feeling a little puzzled.

Ying didn't have any special reaction to the fact that Li Mochen was the one sent to protect her today, but she was a little surprised that he seemed to be chatting with Paimeng just now.

"Nothing, just chatting about the delicious food in Liyue, hehe."

"What a little foodie... Let's go. It's a rare opportunity to go to the Adventurer's League today. Let's see if Catherine has any new tasks."

After taking another look at Li Mochen, Ying turned and walked towards the east district of Liyue Harbor. She was now an official member of the Adventurer's League, so if she had nothing to do, it would be nice to take on a mission to kill time. After all, she had been a freelancer in Teyvat for so long, and it was a little strange to suddenly be idle.

Hey, I was fooled by her, little guy... One day I will reveal your true face. Li Mochen looked at the backs of Ying and Paimeng going away, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then he quietly followed them. As his duty to protect Ying, Li Mochen had to follow her secretly no matter where she went.

However, the mission he received from the "Adventurer's League" this time was a little unusual. It originated from a series of events triggered by a big tree and a mysterious little girl under the tree, and even involved a grudge spanning thousands of years...

The Adventurer's League of Liyue Harbor is located in the eastern part of the city, close to the dock. It is the place with the most dense flow of people and the most prosperous business.
