Genshin Impact: I was sent away by Yaksha at the beginning
Chapter 23 Meeting the Immortal
However, when she walked to the front desk of the inn, Ling Mengxue remembered that she was busy visiting the Qingxian Dian at noon and seemed to have forgotten to come back and give Xiao almond tofu.
It's over. Now that he's been summoned out, he must be in a bad mood. But this matter concerns whether he can have a good life in the future, so he has to bite the bullet and do it!
Paimeng and Ying gradually relaxed. The view from the top floor of the inn was excellent, and they soon became intoxicated by the beautiful scenery. At Ling Mengxue's call, Xiao quietly arrived...
"Oh my, when did you show up?" Paimon was obviously scared.
“My…” Xiao was just about to reach out to Ling Mengxue as usual, but he found that he was not the only one coming today. There was also a strangely dressed girl and a floating flying monster beside her?
"Ahem, let me introduce you. This is the honorary knight Ying from Mondstadt and her pet Paimon." Ling Mengxue said cautiously to the frowning Xiao, handing over the almond tofu that had been prepared long ago.
"Damn it, Paimon is not a pet." After hearing such an introduction, Paimon immediately refuted, but Ling Mengxue just made a face at it and ignored it.
Xiao was obviously a little hungry, and he started eating without paying attention to the presence of others. Ling Mengxue and Ying stood quietly by the side, waiting for the immortal to finish his meal.
After Xiao had finished eating the almond tofu, Ying handed him the "Hundred Taboos" scroll that the young master had given her.
"It seems that you are well prepared. However, this only tells me not to harm your token. It does not mean that you will not be harmed." After taking the Scroll of No Taboos, Xiao took a look at it and said coldly.
"If you are willing to listen to what they have to say, I am willing to provide you with almond tofu for another month, how about that?" Ling Mengxue has killed a lot of monsters in the wild recently, and her wallet has slowly become fatter. In order to catch the big fish Ying, she made up her mind and took out her trump card again.
"...Bai Xue, you are crossing the line. This will not happen again." Xiao always seems to find it difficult to resist this kind of temptation.
"Uh... I don't quite understand." Paimon didn't understand what the two were talking about. But the general idea was that the immortal in front of him could continue to listen to them?
"Getting too close to the world of immortals and demons is overstepping the boundaries. Human souls are far less strong than immortals, and it is difficult for the blood to carry such a strong immortal aura. I don't want you to get too close to me, and it's for your own good." Xiao waved his hands helplessly.
"Why don't you try the specialty of this foreign traveler first? I specially selected it according to your taste, a refreshing dessert!" Ling Mengxue struck while the iron was hot and served the delicious mint jelly that Ying had prepared long ago.
"..." Looking at the crystal clear jelly, Xiao felt helpless. Since it was chosen by Bai Xue for him, it should suit his preferences.
Xiao picked up the small spoon that Ling Mengxue had prepared for him, scooped a spoonful and put it into his mouth. The cool and refreshing taste seemed to instantly dispel all his negative emotions, and his slightly frowned brows slowly relaxed.
"Why are you still standing there? Tell Xiao what happened while he's in a good mood." Ling Mengxue hurriedly urged Ying as she looked at the dazed Ying.
Ying then recounted everything that happened during the Immortal Invitation Ceremony in full. Xiao listened to her carefully and patiently. At the end, Ling Mengxue added some details. She emphasized that before the celebration began, she, the head of the Wangsheng Hall, Hu Tao, and Zhongli were not far away. She saw Ying pushing forward in the crowd, but did not notice any inappropriate behavior from Ying.
"Emperor Rock King... suffered such a disaster." After listening to Ying and Ling Mengxue's narration, Xiao's brows, which had just relaxed, furrowed again.
"I...can't imagine it. No matter how the times change, I have never imagined losing the Emperor's Liyue. What role did the Seven Stars who govern Liyue play in this matter?" Xiao paused and continued, "I will go find the three True Lords, Xueyue, Lishui, and Liuyun. It's time for them to know about this and make a decision."
"So, after losing the Emperor, will the immortals take over Liyue?" Ling Mengxue obviously did not expect things to develop like this. She heard that the immortals of Liyue were all former subordinates of Emperor Yanwang, and they were all extremely powerful. If the Seven Stars of Liyue really wanted to hide the real murderer, the two sides would have to fight.
"An immortal will not evade responsibility. Although... I have my reasons for not wanting to participate in the mortal world, duty is duty after all. Because the god of our Liyue is the god of contract." Every time Xiao talked about Lord Yan, his expression would become extremely respectful.
This Prince of Rock was suddenly assassinated, and Xiao, who admired him so much, didn't seem to have any extreme behavior. This matter always felt like something was wrong. Ling Mengxue suddenly remembered what the bard had said.
"In fact, the old man in Liyue also has similar ideas to the God of Wind." The words of the drunkard Wendy rang in Ling Mengxue's mind like a bolt from the blue.
"...No way, no way, is this old man from Liyue trying to retire early by faking his death?" Ling Mengxue was shocked by her own thoughts. In her opinion, if something really happened to Lord Yan, Xiao should have rushed to the scene with a gun and searched the entire Liyue to find the murderer! This cold-faced immortal was so calm that she felt extremely unnatural. His first reaction was not to find the murderer for the emperor he worshipped, but to run to inform other immortals. This was very suspicious!
"Bai Xue, I advise you not to interfere too much in this matter." Xiao glanced at Ling Mengxue who was thinking with her head down, gave her a warning and then disappeared.
"Ah, this person is so annoying. Xiaoxue is trying to help us... I really want to give him an ugly nickname. Don't call him the Three-Eyed Five-Manifestation Immortal, let's call him the Three-Point-Five-Inch Immortal!" Paimeng was furious when he saw that Ling Mengxue had agreed to make almond tofu for Xiao for a month in order to help them, but Xiao coldly told him not to interfere in this matter anymore.
"Shh, keep your voice down!" Ling Mengxue hurriedly covered the mouth of the outspoken Paimeng, "Why are you as ignorant of life and death as that cook! Be careful or you will give Hu Tao a business deal if you talk nonsense again!"
"Hu Tao? Who is Hu Tao?" Ying asked curiously.
"He's the head of the Wangsheng Hall, who's in the funeral industry... His biggest hobby is promoting the business of their Wangsheng Hall! If you meet someone who comes to your door to sell you tombstones or coffins, and claims that you buy one and get one free, then he's basically head of the Hall, Hu." Ling Mengxue spread her hands.
"Asshole, you actually cursed me. Damn it, I'm going to give you an ugly nickname too!" Paimeng didn't see Ling Mengxue's humor at all and seemed to be even angrier.
"Oh, it's so lively here. It seems that you have already seen the immortal?" The innkeeper had nothing to do at the moment and seemed ready to join their discussion.
"You are lucky to meet Xiaoxue. He is the person who comes into contact with the immortal the most every day. On weekdays, he would probably only be willing to come out and see people when he is in a particularly good mood." Philgodette said to Ying and Paimon with a smile.
"It's really hard to describe the attitude of this immortal." Paimeng, who had just been warned by Ling Mengxue, didn't dare to speak carelessly at this time, but he also had to express his dissatisfaction in a tactful way.
"If Xiaoxue hadn't been here, it would have been difficult for you to get close to him. Immortal fate is rare, and it is your fate to meet Xiaoxue. How many people have been searching for immortals, but have never seen one in their lifetime. Moreover, most of the immortals only know how to use fighting to protect Liyue..."
"So this is the reason why the immortal was so cold just now." Paimon seemed to understand.
"So for thousands of years, humans have mastered the rules of operation here, and the immortals have almost all lived in seclusion. Although these words are a bit disrespectful to the immortals, in my opinion, the current Liyue is no longer the era ruled by the immortals. Now it belongs to humans."
"The proprietress knows so much." Ying looked at Philgodette in surprise. An innkeeper actually knew so many things.
"Don't be a good boy. Don't be like Xiaoxue. You're the boss, not the boss's wife." Philgodette put away her smile and glared at Ling Mengxue. It was all this boy's fault. He kept calling her the boss's wife, and the little girl in front of him started to imitate him.
