Genshin Impact: The Glory of the Herrscher Shines on Teyvat

However, it was obvious that such a childish trick could not scare the clever Alicia and the calm Clorinde. On the other hand, Funina, who had probably experienced several shocks before, was only frightened and trembled all over when faced with Walnut's sudden action, without much other reaction. Obviously, this reaction was not what Walnut expected to see. Seeing that the three girls were not frightened as expected, Walnut felt very disappointed.

"Forget it, forget it. I won't tease you any more. It seems that you are quite courageous to dare to come to Wuwangpo so late at night."

"You are so rude. Why do you want to scare me for no reason?" Funina asked with lingering fear.

"Oh? Did I really scare you? Well then, I, the hall master, would like to apologize to you!" Hu Tao said with a joking smile.

"Who... who was frightened!" Funina retorted stubbornly, but she was clearly at a disadvantage. In just a few words, the outcome was decided.

"Okay, I won't chat with you anymore. Can you leave Qiqi to me?"

After hearing Hu Tao's words, Qiqi was so scared that she immediately hid behind Funina. This action also aroused Funina's desire to protect her. She took a step forward and held Qiqi firmly behind her.

"You're dreaming. You can't hurt Qiqi while I'm here!"

Kurumi felt a bit of a headache when she saw this scene, and Alicia spoke up to break the deadlock.

"Master Hu, can you tell us why you buried Qiqi?"

"Yes, Qiqi is so cute, and you can tell at first glance that she is not a bad person... er... not a bad person, so why did you bury her?"

When Funina saw Alicia speak, she immediately became confident and angrily questioned Walnut.

"This has to start with the duties of our Wangsheng Hall. The main duties of the Wangsheng Hall are to undertake funerals and maintain the balance between the Yin and Yang worlds, ensuring that the deceased can rest in peace and the living can be comforted. In addition, we also send those who are reluctant to leave after death to where they should go."

Having said this, Hu Tao paused, then looked at Qi Qi and continued.

"If people like Qiqi who have passed away are allowed to wander in the human world, they will inevitably break through the barriers between life and death. Most of those deceased souls have unfulfilled wishes and obsessions. If they are all like Qiqi, they are greedy for the mortal world and linger, then chaos will surely occur. Moreover, for her, staying in the mortal world is also a torment."

Faced with Walnut's convincing reasoning, Finina was speechless and at a loss as to what to do. She could only look to Alicia for help.

"What you said makes sense, but... have you ever asked Qiqi for her opinion?"

Alicia's question caught Hu Tao off guard. After a little thought, her gaze turned to Qi Qi.

Seeing someone standing up for her, Qiqi became bolder. She mustered up her courage and stepped out from behind Funina, facing Hutao, and said carefully, "Qiqi... wants to live!"

Qiqi's words really made Hu Tao feel awkward. In fact, burying Qiqi was not her original intention, but as the head of the Wangsheng Hall, she shouldered a heavy responsibility, so how could she just sit back and do nothing?

"Besides, in a sense, Qiqi is not really dead."

"How is it possible? My beautiful lady, I used to work in a clinic before Wangshengtang. Although my generation has changed careers, I still have some medical skills. Qiqi's limbs are stiff, his hands and feet are cold, and he has no pulse. How could he still be alive!"

Walnut was obviously unwilling to believe what Alicia said. Qiqi didn't look like a living person at all. Not to mention Walnut, even Funina and Clorinde who followed Alicia didn't believe it.

Facing Walnut's questioning, Alicia just smiled and said, "All this has to start with Qiqi's origin~"

Qiqi was originally just an ordinary girl picking herbs who strayed into the fairyland. She accidentally broke her right leg and hurriedly hid in a cave to rest.

While she was busy bandaging her wounds, she vaguely heard otherworldly sounds, but she never expected that after the loud bang, she would be trapped between life and death forever.

Fairy or demon, justice or evil... No matter which side, they all understand that she is just a mortal, an innocent person who has suffered the disaster.

Or maybe it was God's will, but she unexpectedly caught the attention of God with her amazing will to survive when she was on the verge of death, and obtained the Eye of God. However, due to her severe injuries, the power of the Eye of God could not save her gradually dissipating vitality.

After the war, the immortals found Qiqi buried in the ruins. They couldn't bear it, so they each took a strand of immortal power and sealed it into Qiqi's body, intending to revive her body.

The awakened Qiqi was reborn, but because she could not control the immortal power in her body, she fell into unprecedented madness... In order to calm the restlessness, Lishui Dieshan Zhenjun had no choice but to seal the unfortunate girl in amber. The amber was not broken until not long ago. The wandering girl was taken back to Bubu Lu by Bai Zhu who passed by and became a medicine boy.

After listening to Alicia's story, everyone present showed astonishment on their faces. They looked at each other in disbelief, with turbulent waves in their hearts.

Who would have thought that the innocent, lively and lovely Qiqi actually lived in such a distant era? What is even more heartbreaking is that Qiqi was a poor person with a tragic fate and suffered a lot. The mystery of her life experience is like a heavy stone pressing on everyone's heart, making people breathless.

While everyone was still immersed in the shock of Qiqi's life story, Alysia raised her lips slightly, revealing a playful and cute smile, and then continued the previous topic: "Actually, think about it carefully, since Qiqi has obtained the immortal power bestowed on her by many immortals, from a certain perspective, she can also be regarded as an immortal?"

"Real name..." Qiqi blinked her bright big eyes and spoke in a baby voice.

"I'm—hungry—Zhen—Jun~" Alicia deliberately dragged out the tone and imitated the way Qiqi spoke.

"Real name—Master Du'e!" The two of them said this at the same time, as if they had telepathic connection, and even their tone was exactly the same.

"Oh no! I buried an immortal while burying a zongzi! Lord Emperor, please bless me, I hope I won't be struck by lightning!"

Hu Tao had mixed feelings at this moment. When Qi Qi and Alicia said their real names at the same time, Hu Tao knew that what Alicia said was true.

After learning the truth, Hu Tao gave a flattering smile and said to Qi Qi.

"Du... Master Du'e, do you remember? You are a great man who doesn't bear grudges. I was blind before. Please don't take it to heart."
