Genshin Impact: Great, you guys still remember

"Is that the Wangshu you mentioned?"

"Yeah, after so much time, not much has changed."

"It's okay. It won't be long before Guiliji will expand here."

"Really."

Five hundred years later, when He Li stood under the Wangshu tree again, he felt as if he were in another world.

"So much time has passed,"

Gui Zhong looked at him sideways without saying anything.

The two of them stayed in silence for a while.

After not staying for long, He Li took Gui Zhong and continued to fly north.

Along the way, He Li pointed to the distance and narrated:

"That's Dihuazhou. A little further out is the area of ​​other demon gods."

Gui Zhong listened very attentively and nodded continuously: "Yes,"

It's not like she hasn't seen this before.

In the past, when she was looking for power, she also traveled to many places.

But now when she came again, she had many different feelings.

Perhaps it was because things and people had changed over the past thousands of years, or perhaps it was the worldly heart she had gained that made her understand a little.

Or maybe...

She glanced to the side and subconsciously tightened her grip on He Li's hand.

Maybe it's because there is someone around her who can give her a sense of peace of mind.

she asked:

"Shall we go take a look?"

He Li was hanging in the sky. He shook his head and drew a circle in the air with his hand:

"No, to be precise, it's the world within the area that I have drawn. We don't need to look at it."

That area refers to the attractive radiation range of the return to the original place in Zhong Li's plan.

To some extent, all humans within the range of her attraction were classified as her subjects.

As for those who are not in Guiliji, they are just "citizens temporarily living under the rule of other demon gods".

However, Zhong Li and Gui Zhong believed that with the growing attraction of Guiliji, their relocation was only a matter of time.

This attractive radiation range is called "Liyue" by Zhong Li.

This is Gu Liyue.

"The people of Ancient Liyue will unite sooner or later, so we should focus our attention further ahead."

As he spoke, He Li stretched out his hand and pointed to the distance.

Finally, I looked along the fingertips.

All I saw was a vast expanse of white.

...

Ancient Liyue only has dozens or hundreds more demon gods than Liyue, and the rest is actually the same as in later generations.

Compared with Ancient Liyue and Liyue,

Gumond is quite different from the Mond in later times.

Looking up, there are only vast expanses of ice.

"Hiss—are there really humans living in this damn place?"

Gui finally exhaled a breath of hot air, looked at He Li with worry, and rubbed his hands:

"Aren't you afraid of the cold? Why don't we go?"

"fine,"

He Li enjoyed Gui Zhong's body temperature and looked around.

He turned back and smiled at Gui Zhong:

"We are so strong, how can we still be afraid of the cold? As for these wind and snow..."

He reached out and took a snowflake:

"How can we stop the human heart from running towards freedom?"

...

"Well—I don't believe it."

After hearing He Li's story, Gui Zhong shook his head.

She also squatted down and picked up a handful of snow, removing the demon's aura from the outside world.

Allow the cold air from the outside world to invade the body of the demon god.

The coldness came from all directions.

Her nose itches:

"Aqiu——"

He Li quickly pulled her up and wrapped her in his arms with clothes:

"Be careful, you're not fully recovered yet."

Gui Zhong curled his arms and smiled secretly, repeating his previous tone in a funny way:

"It's okay, we are so powerful, this is nothing.

But... I just tested it and found that humans absolutely cannot survive in this world."

She leaned in He Li's arms and shook her head:

"I don't believe there are any humans who would want to pursue a life here."

In her opinion, in her heart,

Human beings are small and fragile creatures.

That's why she had spent all her energy to bend down and take care of them, and she took it for granted.

These are my people, what's wrong with me taking care of them?

It was not until later, at He Li's request, after entering the mortal realm, that she began to have fewer such thoughts.

It turns out that humans can use their own wisdom to break away from their dependence on the devil.

But despite this,

She still couldn't imagine.

How could anyone come to this land in the wind and snow?

This makes no sense.

...

"It's not hard to understand. In a person's life, there are always things that are more important than food, clothing, shelter, transportation, and even life itself."

He Li said slowly:

“Maybe it’s persistence, maybe it’s belief, or maybe it’s a goal.”

This is the "world" that runs through the entire life, detached from the dust and beyond the dust, yet inseparable from the dust.

"Maybe you don't believe it, but in my dream hometown, there is indeed such a group of people, a group of the cutest people."

I don't really understand it after all:

"Hometown in my dreams?"

“That’s my real hometown.”

Gui didn't know what to say, but from the look in his eyes, she could tell that he was telling the truth.

There is indeed such a group of people, who are willing to sacrifice their lives for their beliefs and persistence.

"I...I'm sorry,"

But...

She covered her chest, she seemed unable to understand.

"But I really..."

Is there really anything more important than life?

He Li hugged her waist and said softly:

"It's okay, no need to apologize, I'll take you to witness it and you'll know."

After saying this, he raised his head, his gaze piercing through the wind and snow, reaching the independent city thousands of miles away.

That impenetrable city.

"it is good,"

The doubts in my heart turned into expectations.

She also wanted to see something that existed outside of her worldly mind, independent of life, and that shouldn't exist.

"Then let's go."

...

With a goal in mind, the two of them naturally sped up their pace.

This is also due to the harshness of the land.

Just as oil breeds mold, bad land will naturally not attract the covetousness of foreign demons.

It was not until they had flown about a thousand miles that they encountered the first demon since entering Gumond.

Why can you tell at a glance that the other person is a demon?

That's because the other party didn't cover it up at all.

Not even a hint of concealment.

She just stood there.

The overwhelming aura spread outwards.

He Li was a little alert. He Weiwei blocked Gui Zhong behind him and held the stone in his arms, ready to call his sister at any time.

Although he had said before, "The demon gods who choose to protect humans are generally not that bad,"

But speculation is speculation, the true devil is unpredictable.

This was the first time he had seen someone emitting the aura of a demon as soon as they met.

...

But what they didn't expect was that

The demon in front of them saw their alert look and did not show any hostility.

Instead, a helpless smile appeared on his face.

She bent down slightly and looked at the two of them.

She performed a very ladylike ceremony,

She stood in the snow, looking straight at He Li, and even her tone was so gentle:

"Sir, I heard your words on the wind. Would you please come with me to the city to talk?"

"Ok?"

The two were stunned for a moment, obviously surprised by the "duplicitousness" of this demon god.

"I'm sorry, I haven't introduced myself yet,"

The lady smiled and bowed again:

"My name is Diekarapian, the demon god of the tornado,"

This time, she looked at He Li with some anticipation:

"I would like to invite you two to come to the city for a chat."

...

Something is wrong. It is extremely wrong.

Although He Li had expected that Diekarapian would be different from the "tyrant" and "dictator" in Mond's history books,

but...

He looked up at Diocletian, who had his hands on his waist and noticed his gaze and even nodded and smiled in return.

This gap seems a bit big.
