Genshin Impact: The Sharpshooter of Teyvat

A few more days passed, and it was another quiet evening.

Shao Yun was sitting leisurely in front of the tent taking a rest when he suddenly heard the conversation between two members of the Tanit tribe.

"Hey, do you know? Jade is back! I heard that they successfully found the legendary Eternal Oasis! She is now in front of the mistress, accepting the mistress's reward!" One of them said excitedly.

"What? They found it so quickly! That's amazing! Let's go over and take a look!" another person responded impatiently.

Upon hearing the news that Ying and Paimeng would come, Shao Yun murmured to himself: "Ying is back? Wow, this is much faster than I expected..."

He was just about to get up and go look for the two people, but as soon as he stood up, two familiar figures, one big and one small, appeared before him.

Paimeng flew over quickly and happily. When he saw Shao Yun, he shouted happily: "We are back, Shao Yun! Have you missed us these days?"

Shao Yun smiled and reached out to gently pinch Paimeng's cheek, then turned his gaze to Ying beside him and asked with concern: "Is everything going well?"

Ying nodded and answered truthfully, "It went very smoothly! We arrived at the Eternal Oasis safely and buried the remains of Jade's parents properly. We were also warmly welcomed by Madam Babel just now!"

At this moment, the bottle "Lilupal" floating next to Ying was very unhappy, and kept muttering and complaining.

"It's not going well! The King of the Sand Sea deceived me! The mistress is gone! He deceived me... and deceived my entire tribe!"

"At first, for this desert, for the resurrection of the mistress, I deeply loved and admired him... However, in the end, I found out that it was all just a scam!"

After hearing this, Shao Yun couldn't help but say, "I remember someone said that believing in a dead god is meaningless..."

Paimon on the side quickly took over the conversation and explained: "That was what Zhongli said. However, I remember that Shao Yun, you didn't go with us to the Salt of the Earth in Liyue..."

Shao Yun did not respond to Paimon's question, but turned his attention back to Lilupal and continued to explain to him.

"Just as sheep should be protected by their shepherd, a dead shepherd cannot protect the sheep."

Lilupal seemed to understand what he heard, and asked in confusion: "According to you, do you want me to be loyal to the grass god now?"

Shao Yun gently touched his chin and muttered softly: "Well... now she is in need of a family member, maybe you can apply for the job."

After all, now that Nashida's Lanaros have disappeared, Nashida would be very happy if you could go.

Lilupal was seen gently shaking his transparent bottle, as if shaking his head in refusal.

"Forget it. I have chosen my master now. I will never be loyal to anyone else in this life."

Just at this moment, Jade rushed back from Babel.

The moment her eyes fell on Ying's back, she was startled for a moment, and then as if she mustered up her courage, she walked quickly towards Ying.

"Um, Ying, can I take up some of your time? I want to talk to you alone..."

Ying turned around immediately upon hearing the voice, her eyes fell gently on Jade, and she asked with concern, "What's wrong, Jade?"

After hearing Ying's question, Jade seemed a little embarrassed.

She lowered her head slightly and gently rubbed the ground with the tip of her right foot. After a long while, she said, "It really only takes a short while. It definitely won't delay you for too long."

Ying looked at Jade's slightly shy expression and couldn't help feeling a little confused.

So, she subconsciously turned her gaze to Shao Yun who was standing beside her, as if she wanted to ask for his opinion.

Facing Ying's gaze, Shao Yun hesitated for a moment, then quickly turned his head to one side, and responded calmly, "It's okay. I won't interfere with your private social activities. Don't worry about what I think."

After getting Shao Yun's answer, Ying turned to look at Jie De, smiled and asked again: "So, Jie De, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Jade immediately pulled Ying into her own tent, and the two began to talk in whispers.

Lilupal saw it all. When she saw her master and Jade go into the tent, she looked at Shao Yun who was standing aside.

"Since my master is not here at the moment, Mr. Shao Yun, I think I can talk to you a little more freely."

Then, Lilupal lowered his voice and continued, "That desert girl named Jade, in my opinion, seems to have an extraordinary liking for the same sex. I wonder if you understand what I mean..."

What he meant was that Jade was a prostitute, and it was very dangerous for your wife to be alone in a room with her!

Shao Yun naturally understood what Lilupal was hinting at, but he just nodded calmly to show that he knew what was going on.

Then he responded calmly: "Well, I have noticed this a long time ago."

When Lilupal heard that Shao Yun had already seen through the clues but still let the two girls stay alone together, he couldn't help but ask in confusion.

"Since you've already seen it, why do you still let them be alone like this? You're really too careless."

Faced with Lilupal's question, Shao Yun couldn't help but chuckle.

"You are talking like a fool." Shao Yun explained with a smile: "I don't think Ying will be turned gay by Jie De so easily..."

Lilupal asked suspiciously, "Are you sure?"

Shao Yun still responded calmly: "You are just thinking too much..."

At this point, he patted his chest vigorously and promised solemnly: "Let me tell you this, even if Jade confesses to Ying that she likes her, Ying will definitely think that Jade only regards her as a family member."

Lilupal looked at Shao Yun's confident and self-assured look, and for a moment he didn't know how to refute, so he could only say helplessly.

"Okay, since you've already said so... But you'd better be more careful and cautious."

However, facing Lilupal's repeated admonitions, Shao Yun slowly shook his head and sighed softly: "Hey, you really worry too much..."

While Ying and Jie De were whispering in the tent, Shao Yun began to think about preparing dinner.

He turned to look at Paimon and asked with a smile, "Paimon, I'm going to prepare dinner first. How about stewing crocodile meat with some canned food? What do you think?"

When he heard about having dinner, Paimon's eyes lit up instantly, and he nodded excitedly, "Great, great! I've been hungry for a long time!"

Although Paimon is greedy, he is easy to feed. As long as the food is cooked and tastes good, Paimon will eat it all.

The food cooked by Shao Yun is just passable in terms of taste, but it’s the same thing over and over again, so it’s easy to get tired of it. But in the desert, it’s already delicious.

……

Just as Shao Yun asked Youfuteng for some dried crocodile meat and was about to go back to stew the meat, and passed by Masella's conspicuous tent, he suddenly heard a low and magnetic voice.

"Guests of the tribe, please stay..."

Shao Yun stopped when he heard the voice, slowly turned around, and his eyes fell on Marcela who was standing at the door of the tent.

Marseilla was seen smiling, but her expression revealed an elusive deeper meaning.

Shao Yun looked at Marcela politely and asked, "Mr. Marcela, why did you call me?"

Marcela asked casually, "I heard that you entered the 'Eternal Oasis'?"

Shao Yun corrected, "To be precise, it was Ying and Jie De who went in. I didn't go with them."

Marcela didn't seem to care about it, and continued to speak slowly: "Oh, so that's the case. But it's all the same. Madam Babel is very fond of you now."

Shao Yun smiled slightly and responded politely: "Mr. Masela, you are too kind. Although we are warmly received by your department, guests are just guests after all."

"One day, we will leave. After all, we have no intention of joining you."

After hearing what Shao Yun said, Marcela's mouth corners slightly raised and she chuckled.

Then he nodded thoughtfully and kindly reminded: "Indeed, you are just guests. However, I heard an old saying in Liyue that a man is innocent unless he possesses a treasure."

What this means is that the Zhen Ling in your hands will become Babel's target.

Shao Yun narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a hint of alertness in his eyes.

"what do you mean……"

Masaila, who was standing opposite, lowered his voice and reminded in a meaningful tone: "Many tribal elders disappeared inexplicably and have not been heard from since. You know."

Shao Yun listened to Masaila's reminder, and he responded calmly: "I am not very interested in the internal disputes of your tribe."

Seeing that Shao Yun didn't want to say anything more, Marcela gave her advice.

"Final advice, the hunt is not the end, but the beginning of the storm."

Hearing this, Shao Yun couldn't help but frowned, wondering why Masaila was so long-winded.

But out of politeness, he responded: "Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Marcela."

"I do want to give you a piece of advice. You should know yourself. I hope you won't do anything stupid."

At this moment, a sturdy scout from the Tanit tribe ran over.

He walked up to Marcela, bowed slightly, saluted respectfully, and then said with a smile: "Elder Marcela, hello! I'm so sorry to bother you."

After the salute, the scout quickly turned his gaze to Shao Yun who was standing beside him, and spoke in the same respectful manner.

"Dear tribal guest, our mistress has something to ask you to go to her bedroom. She said she wants to discuss something important with you."

When Shao Yun heard that it was Babel looking for him again, he couldn't help but frown, revealing a bit of impatience and complaining.

"Why does Miss Barber always come to me for something? And the frequency of her visits to me has been a little too high lately."

However, despite feeling a little dissatisfied, Shao Yun quickly adjusted his mood out of respect and basic etiquette.

Seeing this, Masaila, who was standing nearby, stretched out her arms calmly and crossed them across her chest, and said to Shao Yun earnestly, "Since the mistress specially sent someone to invite you over, there must be something important to discuss. You should go quickly and don't worry about me."

After saying this, Marcela nodded slightly at Shao Yun.

Shao Yun said goodbye to Masaila very politely.

"Well, then, good-bye, Mr. Marcella. And I beg you to give my regards to Mademoiselle Tadella."

Masela responded expressionlessly: "Tadela hasn't come back yet, but now that you mentioned it, it really reminds me that she has been away for a long time for training..."
