Genshin Impact: I was sent away by Yaksha at the beginning

These days, Ying and Paimeng just felt that there was simply not enough time.

They received the task assigned to them by Zhongli - to find the Immortal Xiao.

However, whether it was the Wangshu Inn where the young man often appeared, or Dihuazhou, or even the rock abyss, there was no sign of him.

"I'm so anxious, where has this cold-faced immortal gone?" Paimeng has been running around with Ying for several days and feels his body is drained.

"Losing your loved one and the person you respect the most in one day, I'm afraid no one can bear it." Ying sighed softly.

How could this CP that I worked so hard to pair up become like this? How could it become like this!

"Maybe we should go find your brother. I feel like he might be able to help. Hasn't he always been looking for justice? I think this matter might be related to the Supreme God." Paimon suddenly felt like he was really smart.

"Brother, he..." Ying was a little angry when she heard Paimon mention her brother. It was not easy for the brother and sister to meet, and he promised to tell her everything slowly. But a week later, her brother was only concerned with running out! He only found various abyss wizards to dance for him and entertain him. What's more, he didn't even allow her to go out easily!

"Brother, he has no idea how hard I worked to find him!" Ying felt furious when she mentioned Kong.

I went through so much trouble to find and beat him up, but in the end, this guy is still okay and I can be seen all day long!

Of course, the group of abyss mages did not dare to stop their princess. Ying simply put the long sword in her hand to her neck, and they let her go helplessly.

My little princess, I can't hurt her, what else can I do except spoil her? Besides, if we really fight, I don't think I can win...

After searching for a whole day and returning empty-handed, Ying had no choice but to go to Ganyu for help in a dejected mood.

When Ganyu heard that Xiao was missing, she sighed and said, "He has always kept his distance from the world. I guess it's just his personality... I can understand him, but I can't get close to him. After all... his companions who fulfilled the same "contract" with him are no longer here..."

"Are you talking about the other immortals and yakshas?" Ying vaguely heard Ling Mengxue mention that there were five immortals and yakshas originally, but now only the Great Sage who Conquers Demons is left.

"Well, I'm not very clear about the details, but if you want to find Xiao, maybe you can try here." Ganyu suddenly remembered that the Emperor once said that there was a place under the rock abyss where you could see the endless starry sky in a special way, and that child named Ling Mengxue seemed to like it very much.

Ying, who learned from Ganyu how to get to the starry sky, did not dare to relax at all, and soon arrived at a huge rock abyss that she had never set foot on.

It's cold and damp here, and there's no light at all after walking for so long. It's worthy of being underground in the mountains.

"We should be almost there." Paimon held up the Lumen Stone Catalyst given to them by the Adventurers' Guild - a precious crystal that could provide light here.

"I think it should be soon." Ying opened the map. According to the map drawn for them by the members of the Rock Layer Abyss Investigation Team, this place is not far from there.

Ying didn't know how long she had been walking. She always felt that this road seemed to have no end. In the pitch-black darkness, she could only move forward relying on the faint light held by Paimon.

This place is really scary, Ying couldn't help but think so.

"There was a slope just now, wasn't there? At least it shows that the route we took is correct." Paimon was cheering Ying up. In this dark and unfamiliar environment, without the support of friends, she would probably want to escape from here soon.

“Really…?” Ying was still a little skeptical, but she didn’t stop.

What Paimon said made sense. Although the road ahead was indeed not obvious, after turning a few corners, Ying was already sure of it.

"Although it was very subtle, I felt the power that only belonged to Xiao Shangxian."

"Can you feel it?"

"Well, it's a little far up there. Let me take a look. Ganyu told me to release the desolate planet first, and then jump in..."

"Then what are you waiting for?" Paimon seemed a little anxious.

"I really hope I can find the Immortal Xiao smoothly." Ying released Huangxing and jumped in. After trying to jump several times, Ying was surprised to find that the surrounding scenery had really changed.

"...!"

'boom--'

Ying felt her heart pounding and her skin was tingling.

Paimon also felt something was wrong and quickly held his breath.

But soon, this uncomfortable feeling disappeared, and a vast starry sky appeared before my eyes.

The stars in the sky are turning, and the curtains on earth are falling. After getting drunk, I don’t know the water in the sky, and the boat is full of clear dreams, which are pressing down on the stars.

Ying couldn't help but sigh that the starry sky here really contained endless romance. No wonder Xiaoxue liked this place so much.

"Look, that's the cold-faced immortal." Paimon pointed with his hand, and Ying looked in the direction Paimon pointed. Sure enough, there was a young man lying there who looked very painful.

Ying ran over in a hurry, only to find the young man speaking incoherently in a daze.

"Shirayuki, I gave up a lot in order to survive. There are many things that can be solved by death, but I... didn't do them."

"Is it because I love life or because I am afraid of death? I can't tell, and I don't want to tell. But I always feel that I am still alive. Even if life is worse than death, at least I am still alive."

"I want to live for you."

Ever since Ling Mengxue came to him, Xiao found that his addiction to sweet dreams had been greatly weakened. As long as she was by his side, he would have a sense of peace as if he was in a dream. Even if he did not take sweet dreams, he would not fall into the devil's barrier again.

That false sense of happiness often made Xiao unable to distinguish between dreams and reality, because he often dreamed of her, she was in his dreams and she was also outside of his dreams.

Sometimes Xiao would feel that such happiness was too extravagant, and that a person with such sins on his hands should not pick the flower at all. His greed and desire would sooner or later bring retribution.

But Xiao didn't expect that there would be retribution, and it would come so quickly, but it happened to Bai Xue.

He didn't regret kissing that flower, even if the price was death - but if he had known that kissing that flower would cause it to wither and die, he would never have approached it in the first place.

Xiao repeatedly asked himself, is love about fulfillment? Or is love about possession? However, after thinking about this question for a long time, he still had no answer.

The last time I saw her, when I saw her lying in my arms and crying loudly, I had a vague feeling that something big was going to happen.

I shouldn't have let her go! Damn it, I was so slow.
