Genshin Impact: The Sharpshooter of Teyvat

On the other side, in the cabin of the Death Star, soft light filtered through the window lattice and sprinkled on a slightly messy bed.

Paimon opened his eyes drowsily, having just woken up from a sweet dream.

At the same time, Ying also moved slowly, her eyelids trembled slightly, and finally slowly opened.

There was a hint of confusion in her eyes, as if she had not yet completely emerged from the dream.

She stretched out her hand lazily and groped for the bedside, but was surprised to find that there was no one there.

This discovery made Ying murmur softly.

"Where are the people?" There was a hint of confusion and puzzlement in her tone.

Paimon heard Ying's whisper, sat up straight, rubbed his still hazy eyes, and asked curiously: "Who is it?"

Ying did not answer immediately, but clutched the quilt tightly, turned over, and continued to speak lazily: "Shao Yun... after sleeping... I disappeared, really, um..."

There was a hint of complaint and confusion in her tone, and she was somewhat dissatisfied with Shao Yun's sudden disappearance.

However, Paimon seemed to have heard something extraordinary. She widened her eyes in surprise and shouted loudly: "Ah!!!"

This high-decibel scream instantly broke the silence in the cabin, and Ying couldn't help but cover her ears, looking a little impatient.

"What are you doing, Paimon? It's so noisy..."

Paimon realized that he might have lost his composure and quickly adjusted his mood, but his excitement could not be concealed in his tone.

"Ying, what did you say just now? And, your...?" She wanted to ask where Ying's clothes were, but she couldn't open her mouth.

Ying was obviously very sleepy. She closed her eyes tightly and interrupted Paimon.

"Paimeng, I'm very tired, let me take a nap. Shao Yun and I fell asleep very late last night." There was deep fatigue in her tone, and it was obvious that she didn't want to continue this topic anymore.

However, Paimon's curiosity did not dissipate. She gently pushed Ying's back and asked again, "What did you two do last night?"

But Ying obviously didn't want to say anything more, she just replied in a daze.

"Don't ask, I want to sleep." After saying that, he fell asleep again.

Paimeng looked at the fair and tender Ying and imagined a scene that was not suitable for children, which shocked her young mind.

"This is a bit too, too exciting..."

……

Ying took a nap until noon. The sunlight shone through the window into the room, bringing a hint of warmth.

Paimon was sitting next to Ying, his big eyes full of curiosity and confusion, and he spent the whole morning trying to digest the explosive news.

When Ying finally woke up from her dream, she opened her eyes slightly and saw Paimon's "big face" very close to her.

Ying suddenly opened her eyes and saw Paimon's round face almost touching her nose. The sudden visual impact made her instantly alert.

Ying grabbed the quilt and sat up suddenly, shouting in dissatisfaction: "Paimon! What are you doing? You scared me to death!"

Paimeng was startled by Ying's reaction, and then pouted his lips and asked with a wronged look: "Ying, what did you and Shao Yun do last night?"

Ying's thoughts were instantly brought back to the warm moment of last night, and a blush appeared on her face.

She gently placed her right index finger in front of her mouth, made a "hush" gesture, and then said in a sweet and mysterious tone: "This is a little secret..."

Seeing this, Paimeng immediately had some guesses in her mind. She thought, "It's over. Ying must have been 'taken away' by Shao Yun!"

But this speculation did not last long, because Shao Yun's appearance immediately diverted her attention.

Shao Yun was holding a box of exquisite snacks in his hand, with a smile on his face. He walked into the room and said, "Ying, Paimeng, I bought some delicious snacks for you from Liyue Harbor."

When she heard there was something delicious, Paimeng immediately threw away her previous worries. She excitedly flew to Shao Yun and asked with sparkling eyes: "Wow! What is delicious? Let me see!"

Ying yawned, grabbed the quilt and slowly sat up, her eyes lazily fell on Shao Yun, and asked softly: "Did you buy anything delicious?"

Shao Yun smiled and gently placed the snack box on the table, and replied, "Delicious pastries. I don't know what Xiangling made for me."

Ying was about to stand up, looked down at herself, and urged Shao Yun to turn around and not look.

"Shao Yun, turn around first and don't peek at me getting dressed."

Upon hearing this, Shao Yun immediately turned his back, playfully covered his eyes, and said with a smile, "Okay, I won't look."

Ying gently lifted the quilt and carefully stood up with the help of the bed. She gently covered her stomach and was obviously still feeling a little uncomfortable.

At this time, Paimon quickly flew over and said with concern: "Ying, let me help you change your clothes. You don't seem to be able to move very well."

Ying nodded and looked at Paimon gratefully.

"Thank you Paimon..."

With Paimon's careful help, Ying changed into her exotic blue and white "Newborn Star" costume.

This outfit is full of exotic style. The blue and white color combination is fresh and refined. The white sleeves with rabbit ear knots and the white and gold wooden-soled boots add a bit of playfulness and agility.

The hem of the skirt is decorated with many golden diamond-shaped accessories, which sparkle brightly in the sun.

The white split scarf tied around her neck fluttered gently in the wind, making Ying look as noble and elegant as a princess from a foreign country.

After changing her clothes, Ying sat down at the table with the help of Paimon.

She gently opened the lid of the snack box and looked at the neatly arranged pastries inside. She couldn't help but exclaimed: "These snacks look really good."

Shao Yun also turned around at this time, and saw Ying changed into her "initial skin". He couldn't help laughing and said, "Haha, my sharpshooter girl has changed back into her 'princess' costume. She is getting more and more beautiful."

Ying picked up a piece of raspberry mille-feuille and took a bite. It tasted sweet and delicate.

She looked at Shao Yun and said meaningfully, "Stop talking nonsense...Try these snacks, they taste really good."

……

Shao Yun, Ying and Paimeng were in particularly good mood after enjoying the delicious snacks.

Shao Yun suggested taking a walk on the deck, getting some fresh air and enjoying the gentle sea breeze.

Ying readily agreed, although there seemed to be a subtle difference in her steps. Paimon noticed it, but she was smart and chose to remain silent. She didn't ask any more questions, but just accompanied her silently.

On the deck, the sea breeze blows gently, bringing with it a slightly salty scent, making people feel relaxed and happy.

At this moment, Beidou's familiar and heroic voice sounded. She was directing the crew to make preparations for setting sail in a tense and orderly manner.

Seeing Shao Yun, Ying and Paimeng coming, Beidou showed a hearty smile on his face.

"You've arrived at the perfect time. The Death Star is about to set off for Inazuma. It's expected to take three days to arrive. Is there anything else you need to take care of?"

Upon hearing this, Shao Yun smiled slightly, indicating that he had no worries.

He turned to look at Ying, only to see Ying looking at Beidou, nodded and said, "No more, we are ready."

Beidou saw this and nodded with satisfaction, then announced loudly.

"Then let us set sail towards the 'eternal' kingdom surrounded by thunder and rain - Inazuma!"

Her voice was so powerful that it even shook the sea breeze.

Paimon cheered excitedly, "Let's go!"

……

At Beidou's command, the Death Star responded quickly. The anchor was pulled up suddenly, making a heavy sound. Then, the huge sail slowly rose under the action of the wind, leading the giant ship to break through the waves towards the distant Inazuma Kingdom.

Shao Yun stood under the mast, with his back against a solid wooden pillar, looking deeply at Ying and Paimeng beside him.

He slowly recounted the information he had learned from Beidou and Manye in the morning, his tone carrying a seriousness that could not be ignored.

"When we arrive in Inazuma, Miss Hokuto has already made arrangements. A friend named Thomas will come to pick us up. However, things are unpredictable, and we still need to be fully prepared to deal with any unexpected events that may arise."

Ying nodded slightly when she heard this. It’s not a bad thing to prepare for a rainy day.

"Shao Yun, go ahead and talk. We are all listening."

Shao Yun turned his eyes gently to Ying and continued, "Our first task is to help you regain your lost power. Remember? You once gained elemental power by touching the statue. So, first regain your power. After that, we will try to leave the island and face the Thunder God of Inazuma, the Thunder General."

Having said that, Shao Yun couldn't help but pursed his lips slightly, revealing a hint of reluctance in his heart, but then he became firm again.

"Although I don't want to be a messenger, those two bastards Wendy and Zhongli were very nice to you in the past, so I am willing to lend them a hand. After meeting General Lei Dian, we don't need to worry too much about the content of the conversation, as long as we can make sure we can meet her in person. As for whether to continue our adventure in Inazuma or go to the next country, we can make plans later."

After listening to Shao Yun's plan, Ying nodded again in agreement.

"Okay, Shao Yun, we all understand."

Looking at Ying who was so obedient, Shao Yun gently kissed Ying on the cheek.

"Inazuma is more dangerous and unpredictable than Mondstadt and Liyue, but as long as we unite, nothing can stop us. We can go anywhere, and no one can defeat us."

However, this warm atmosphere did not last long as it was broken by Paimon's exclamation.

She pointed at the sea in the distance and said in surprise, "Shao Yun, Ying, although this is my first time on a boat, there's something wrong with the clouds over there!"

Upon hearing this, the two immediately looked in the direction Paimon pointed. They saw that a large patch of thick dark clouds had gathered in the sky, accompanied by bursts of thunder and lightning, foreshadowing the coming storm.

This reminded Shao Yun of bad things. Wouldn't the Death Star sink in the storm, and then Shao Yun, Ying and Paimon drift to some Guarma Island?

"Everyone on the deck, get into the cabin immediately!" Beidou's steady and powerful voice sounded at the right time, "We are about to enter the storm area off the coast of Inazuma!"
