Genshin Impact: The Sharpshooter of Teyvat

In the early morning on the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain, the snowstorm finally showed signs of abating. The snowflakes were still falling slowly, but no longer as violently.

Kong, indeed, did not sleep all night as Shao Yun said.

He gently turned his bound hands and feet, turned around, and his eyes fell gently on his sister Ying beside him.

Ying lay on the soft bear skin, breathing evenly and peacefully, immersed in her sweet dream.

At the door, Shao Yun hadn't slept all night. Dainsleb, who had just woken up, was also beside Shao Yun, and the two seemed to be talking about something.

Kong tried hard to prop himself up. Although his hands and feet were restricted, he still stood up and skipped to Shao Yun's side.

"Shao Yun, it's getting late. I have to go."

Then, Sora turned his gaze to Dainsleb, held out his hand, and pleaded, "Dain, please help me untie these restraints."

Seeing this, Shao Yun sighed helplessly. What was supposed to come would eventually come, but he couldn't help but persuade: "Wait a little longer. When Ying wakes up, it won't be too late for you to say goodbye properly before leaving."

But Sora shook his head firmly.

"In the past week or so, I have said everything I wanted to say to my sister. Like Ying, I will not say goodbye. Besides, we will meet again. The sooner this is over, the sooner you can leave and continue your journey."

Shao Yun's eyes lightly swept over Deinsreb, and Deinsreb seemed to understand the deep meaning in his eyes. He slowly stretched out his hand, and his fingertips lightly touched the dark blue energy seal wrapped around his empty hands and feet. With a flash of light, the seal was released.

Sora felt his hands being freed again and rubbed his wrists gently, feeling the long-lost comfortable sounds coming from his joints.

"Then I'll go first. Remember to take good care of my sister. I only have one small wish, and that is not to let me become an uncle too early." He looked at Shao Yun with a smile and said easily: "I believe you will treat her well."

Shao Yun smiled slightly and promised: "Don't worry, I will."

Just as Kong was about to turn around and leave, Dainsleib's voice suddenly rang out, interrupting the two people's greetings.

"Sora, wait a minute."

Sora's eyes met with Dainthreb's, he swallowed and asked, "What's wrong, Dain?"

Dainsleb looked at Kong, with a complex emotion flashing in his eyes. He sighed softly and bid his final farewell to Kong.

"I will still stick to my position and stop the Abyss Cult's conspiracy. Even after more than a week of experience, my attitude towards the Cult has not changed."

Sora nodded in understanding.

"I understand, Dain. I'm looking forward to how you will stop us."

After saying that, Kong didn't stay any longer. He turned around and strode out of Albedo's laboratory, leaving behind a series of firm and resolute footsteps.

Dainsleb looked at Kong's departing back, was silent for a moment, and then said goodbye to Shao Yun.

"Then I should go too. I wish you all the best on your journey."

Shao Yun asked with concern: "Why don't you take a break? You have done a lot of work in the past week."

Dainsleb shook his head and declined the offer.

"There is no time to rest. Once Kong returns to the Abyss Cult, they will definitely take action immediately. I must follow them and stop their plan."

Upon hearing this, Shao Yun stopped trying to persuade him to stay and just nodded slightly.

"Well, be careful on your way. Bye."

With the departure of Dainsleib, only Shao Yun, Ying and the always energetic Paimon were left in Albedo's laboratory.

There was a slight feeling of sadness in the air, but it was soon broken by the pop-up notification from the system.

[The current red zone in Teyvat has been lifted, and the Abyss Cult's pursuit of you has ended. 】

ended……

……

Shao Yun sat quietly beside the fire, the firelight illuminating his focused face. He was carefully tending to the kettle, letting the water slowly heat up.

As the gurgling sound sounded, he took out an exquisite coffee pot and a bag of coffee powder from his backpack, ready to make himself a cup of fragrant coffee.

At this moment, Ying opened her eyes hazily, looked around, and found that Kong and Dainsleib were no longer by her side. She couldn't help feeling confused and uneasy.

She called softly, "Shao Yun, where are my brother and Dai Yin?"

Hearing the voice, Shao Yun turned around with a smile, holding a cup of freshly brewed coffee in his hand. The hot steam was rising, emitting an enticing aroma.

"Your brother, Sora, is just like you. He is not used to the farewell ceremony, so he left quietly while you were asleep."

"Daiinsleb, in order to stop the conspiracy of the Abyss Cult, also embarked on a new journey."

After hearing this, Ying's eyes flashed with disappointment, but she quickly regained her composure.

She took the coffee cup handed to her by Shao Yun and took a sip out of curiosity.

However, the strong bitter taste instantly filled her mouth, causing her to frown and even spit out the coffee, sticking out her tongue and complaining, "What kind of coffee is this? Why is it so bitter!"

Shao Yun wiped the coffee that sprayed on his face with his sleeve and explained, "There is no milk and sugar. It seems that you don't like this original coffee."

Ying looked at the brown liquid in the cup, feeling somewhat helpless. She suspected that this was Shao Yun's revenge on her...

She shook her head and said to Shao Yun, "I'd better drink some water. This original coffee... is really not to my taste."

Shao Yun smiled and nodded, took the coffee cup from Ying's hand, and said gently: "Okay, I'll go get you some water. Wait a moment."

Shao Yun gently handed Ying a cup of warm water. She took it, moistened her throat, and stood up.

"Now, we go to Liyue? After all, my brother is..."

Shao Yun pondered for a moment and suggested, "Let's go back to Mond first. I have to explain the matter of the house to Goethe. Without my permission, he dare not easily transfer the house."

Upon hearing this, Ying nodded slightly to show her agreement.

"That's fine. One more day won't hurt."

At this moment, Paimeng woke up from her deep sleep. She rubbed her sleepy eyes, looked at Shao Yun and Ying who had woken up, and asked curiously, "What happened?"

Shao Yun smiled and shook his head, and said softly: "It's nothing, Paimeng, we are about to set off, cheer up."

Paimon was still a little confused, thinking that he was on the run again, so he asked casually, "Oh, what are we having for breakfast?"

Upon hearing this, Shao Yun replied calmly, "Go deer hunter, you can eat whatever you want."

Paimeng was stunned when he heard this, and then he suddenly realized.

"Ah? Going to hunt deer? Shao Yun, you mean..."

Shao Yun smiled and nodded in confirmation.

"Yes, we will leave the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain and return to Mondstadt first, and then go to Liyue. The ultimate goal is to find a way to get to Inazuma."

After Shao Yun finished speaking, Paimeng also noticed that there were two people missing around him. He understood what had happened and nodded tacitly.

Afterwards, Shao Yun slowly bent down, picked up the legendary mountain lion cloak, the trapper's cloak and the three-star bear skin on the ground, and put them into his backpack.

Then he came to the snow-covered world outside the laboratory and came to the Andalusian horse "Robot".

He patted the horse's back gently, and the horse seemed to sense its master's intention and lowered its head obediently.

Shao Yun operated the system quickly and skillfully, put "Carrot" into the stable, and prepared to embark on a new journey.

Turning around, Shao Yun looked into Albedo's laboratory and shouted, "Let's go, leave this cold snowy mountain and welcome the warm sunshine."

After saying this, he mounted the saddle of "Boadicea", and Ying and Paimon followed closely behind him and rode on "Buel".

Three people and two horses left behind a trail of footprints that gradually faded away at the end of the snow-capped mountains.

As the outline of the snow-capped mountains gradually blurred, a long-lost warm breath blew over us.

The sunshine of Mondstadt fills the earth, everything comes back to life, birds sing and flowers bloom, and the whole world is immersed in a vibrant atmosphere. Shao Yun, Ying and Paimeng ride their horses, walk in the warm sunshine, and enjoy the rare tranquility and beauty.

Not long after, the three arrived in Mondstadt.

Shao Yun brought Ying and Paimon to the Deer Hunter Restaurant. Before enjoying the food, Shao Yun finished what he needed to do first.

He looked at Ying and Paimon, smiled and said, "I'm going to go find Goethe. I have some things to take care of. You guys can eat first and don't have to wait for me."

Upon hearing this, Paimeng immediately smiled happily. She patted her chest and said confidently, "It's okay, Shao Yun! We can wait for you to come back. Come back soon!"

Shao Yun nodded slightly, then left the Deer Hunter Restaurant and came to the small garden located between the Knights' Headquarters and the Adventurers' Association Headquarters.

There, he found Goethe, who was hunched over, leisurely enjoying the tranquility and beauty.

"Goethe, I'm here." Shao Yun's voice was calm and clear, breaking the tranquility of the small garden.

When Goethe heard Shao Yun's voice, he trembled violently and was frightened.

But he quickly adjusted his mood, turned around, and said enthusiastically with a smile on his face: "Oh, it's Mr. Shao Yun, what a rare guest, what do you want to see me about? Is it about the house?"

Shao Yun looked at Goethe's smiling face and couldn't help but laugh in his heart, but he still explained seriously: "The three of us, Ying, Paimeng and I, are leaving. So, the house is returned to you."

Goethe's eyes flashed with surprise when he heard this. He obviously didn't expect Shao Yun to offer to return the house. He had already prepared to give the house away, and now this news was no different from money falling from the sky to him.

He rubbed his hands excitedly and said repeatedly: "Ah, thank you so much, Mr. Shao Yun. I will never forget your great kindness."

Shao Yun looked at Goethe's slightly exaggerated reaction, a playful smile appeared on his lips, and he asked jokingly: "Why, you look very happy? Have you been worried that I will occupy your house?"

Hearing this, Goethe blushed slightly and looked a little embarrassed. He stammered, "Well... well... I just... haha..."

Seeing this, Shao Yun waved his hand gently, indicating that Goethe should not mind it.

He said casually, "Don't worry, I'm not interested in real estate like houses. I just came to tell you that Ying is still waiting for me to go back for dinner. Well, I should go now."

After saying that, Shao Yun turned and left the small garden, leaving behind only a free and easy back.

Goethe still hunched over, waved his hand, and watched Shao Yun leave, muttering: "Have a nice day, Mr. Shao Yun..."

"It's best not to come back for the rest of your life..."

……

Shao Yun left the garden where Goethe was and walked back to the Deer Hunter Restaurant.

At this moment, Mondstadt's "Ice and Fire People of the Forest", the passionate Amber and the cold and beautiful Eula, appeared in his sight.

At this moment, Amber was anxiously pulling the "half-crazy" Eula to stop her from making an impulsive decision.

"Eula, do you really want to fight with Shao Yun?" Amber is now confused. Early this morning, Eula seemed to be going crazy and was looking for Shao Yun all over Mond City.

"I've figured it out. I won't be at peace unless I fight him. Even if I die, I'll accept it." Eula said resolutely, "Let him die. Anyway, our Lawrence family should have perished long ago!"

Amber became even more anxious when she heard this. She hugged Eula's thighs tightly, trying to stop her in this way.

"Because of Lesig?" Her voice was trembling. "Eula, it's all over. Don't be stupid!"

Eula did not stop. She dragged her thigh, which was held by Amber, and continued walking towards the Knights.

"That's right, it's because of Lesig. I can accept it even if he is crippled, but he doesn't deserve to die. Now I understand why I am always absent-minded. I'm going to ask for leave from Captain Qin. I want to duel with Shao Yun!"

Amber almost collapsed. She couldn't understand Eula's persistence and madness. In her opinion, Shao Yun had let her go, which was the best ending.

However, Youla insisted on breaking this peace and provoking Shao Yun. Isn't this crazy?

Just as Amber was trying to persuade Eula earnestly, Shao Yun appeared in front of them.

Amber was stunned for a moment. She immediately stood up and pulled Eula to run.

While pulling Youla, he explained to Shao Yun: "Shao Yun, Youla is drunk, don't be angry!"

However, when Youla saw Shao Yun, a fire ignited in her heart. She excitedly broke free from Amber's restraints and shouted: "Shao Yun, I'm not drunk, I'm not afraid of death! I want to follow you..."

Seeing this, Amber quickly covered Eula's mouth, fearing that she would say something impulsive.

"Eula! Are you really going to die?"

Shao Yun looked at this scene, and his heart could not help but waver. He nodded slightly and said, "Okay, Amber, don't hide it."

Shao Yun stared at Eula, whose eyes were bloodshot, and knew that he had to give her an explanation.

"Eula, if you really want to fight, please do it as soon as possible."

Eula struggled to break free from Amber's obstruction, tightly grasping the heavy two-handed sword "When the Pine Sounds Ring" in both hands, with a determined light flashing in her eyes, she shouted desperately.

"Shao Yun, I've been going crazy for more than a week. I can't get over the death of Lesig. Today, I want to seek justice for him! Even if I die for it, I will have no regrets. My actions have nothing to do with anyone, they are just my personal revenge for 'him'!"

Shao Yun nodded slightly and responded: "I understand your determination. Then, come on."

Eula took a deep breath, and the tremendous power of ice element surged throughout her body. The sword was wrapped in cold air, and she shouted loudly.

"Strong ice, end the deep hatred!"

Then, she rushed towards Shao Yun regardless of everything, with her sword carrying a biting cold wind, vowing to cut off this hatred.

However, Shao Yun simply pulled out the cowboy revolver from his waist, lightly clicked his fingers, and a gunshot rang out.

Youla only felt her hands lighten, followed by the sound of the greatsword falling out of her hands. In her sight, the greatsword carrying the will of revenge had been knocked away by Shao Yun's bullet.

Eula's eyes widened, and she stood there in disbelief. The huge gap in strength made her stunned for a moment.

Shao Yun put away his gun, walked slowly to her side, patted her shoulder gently, and said earnestly: "Revenge is just a fool's game. Do you know why revenge always seems so stupid?"

Seeing that Youla was still in a state of dismay, Shao Yun continued, "Because only a few people succeed in revenge, and even if they succeed, the price they pay is often unbearable."

"You are smart. You were able to escape from the Lawrence family, which proves your wisdom and courage. Whether you hate me or resent me, I never regret killing Lesig. But if you choose to become a puppet of revenge, then I can only say that you are welcome to kill me at any time."

Before leaving, Shao Yun added in a low voice.

"But remember, don't let hatred blind you and make you into a fool like your relatives."

After saying that, Shao Yun turned and left. Youla collapsed and knelt on the ground, tears streaming down her face. She kept crying and repeating that iconic line.

"I'll remember this grudge...I'll remember it!"
