Genshin Impact: I am best at sacrifice, don't cry

"This power is increasingly beyond my expectations..."

Nan Dou slowly took his hand away from Xiaoyu's face, looking at those beautiful eyes full of spirit, feeling deeply moved.

After the Seed of Hope evolves, the power it displays is far from the Power of Abundance.

Compared to the healing and recovery of living things that the Power of Fertility relies on, the recovery brought about by the Seed of Hope is like turning back time.

But strangely, in the process of using the Seed of Hope, people can still feel a strong sense of vitality.

"Brother Nandou, I can see again, and I don't feel any pain at all!"

Xiaoyu's eyes widened as he looked at Nandou with great excitement.

"Well, this time... maybe I won't be blind again."

Nan Dou said somewhat unsurely.

"If that's the case, Brother Nan Dou is the great hero of the Xianzhou Alliance!"

Xiaoyu said to Nandou with great anticipation.

There was nothing wrong with her words. After all, once the problem of the [Tianque People] was solved, the people of Xianzhou would no longer have to worry about it, and no one knew how many Tianque People in dire straits would be saved.

Speaking of Xiaoyu, five hundred years have passed and she is no longer young.

As a person with natural deficiencies, she is very resistant to the anti-aging elixir, so Xiaoyu now looks like a woman in her forties.

I don’t know if it’s because of Tianque, but Xiaoyu didn’t fall in love with anyone and chose to be alone just like Jingliu.

As time goes by, the little girl who once struggled to survive in the darkness has now become a famous musician in Luofu Fairy Boat.

"Brother Nandou, I have a performance the day after tomorrow, do you want to come and see it?"

Xiaoyu blinked and stared at Nandou with great anticipation and asked.

Nan Dou looked at Xiaoyu's behavior like a little girl and couldn't help laughing: "You are already old, but you are still like a child, you are not ashamed."

"I'm just a little girl in front of Nandou."

The little fish started to act coquettishly and refused to give in.

Nan Dou looked at Xiaoyu, who had grown into a beautiful woman, and his eyes vaguely recalled the time when she was sitting alone and quietly at the busiest intersection in the center of Xingcha Sea.

I couldn't help but reach out and touch Xiaoyu's head, and replied lovingly: "I will go and see. I don't know if your Master Jingliu has time."

Hearing Nan Dou's agreement, Xiaoyu nodded happily and replied: "Master Jingliu agreed to my invitation yesterday."

"Is it okay for me to take Dan Feng with me?"

"Okay, okay. It would be even better if Brother Danfeng could come."

"Okay, okay, it's not good for me to come, right?"

"No, I didn't say that!"

"..."

Nan Dou played with Xiao Yu for a while and then left her place.

Maybe it was because of her special experience as a "person with a missing talent" since childhood, Xiaoyu has been immersed in the world of music all her life, which has reduced many worries and allowed her to achieve something.

For this reason, Nan Dou was once worried that Xiaoyu would become like those immortal boat people he had seen on the verge of falling into the devil's body, and that their emotions would be worn away by the repetitive life.

But surprisingly, Xiaoyu really loves music, and her love for it has lasted for hundreds of years. Every time she picks up an instrument, she can relive the joy of her first contact with it.

This made Nan Dou very pleased and relieved. He had watched Xiaoyu grow up since she was a child, and sometimes he even felt that Xiaoyu was his daughter.

Apart from Xiaoyu, the only other person who gave him this feeling was Yueyan.

"I suddenly had an idea. After so many years, there is not even a decent photo. This is not acceptable!"

A strange light suddenly appeared in Nan Dou's eyes, and he immediately returned to Xiaoyu's home.

A few hours later, Nan Dou came out of Xiaoyu's house with a smirk on his face: "I'm really looking forward to the expressions on your two faces when the time comes."

Three days later, in the center of Xingchahai, the busiest street, an open-air stage was being built in full swing.

Passersby all stopped to talk about it.

“Which artist is coming to perform?”

"Stupid, doesn't it say right on the banner, famous musician Cuttlefish!"

"Everyone in Luofu Xianzhou knows her story. I grew up listening to her music when I was a child."

"Hey, as a person without talent, he has achieved such success in music. I wonder how much effort and sweat he has put in, and how much suffering he has endured."

"Now that you mention it, I'm going to take a closer look."

"..."

Conversations like these are happening all over the street.

Not only that, no one knows who posted the photos here on Xianzhou’s network.

At one time, many Xianzhou people who loved music or loved excitement emerged one after another.

Some people skipped work and asked for leave to go to the scene, while others slacked off during work and secretly watched the live broadcast.

By the time the performance was about to begin a few hours later, the stage was already packed with people.

This was Xiaoyu's first public performance, and it was unexpectedly popular.

However, next, Nam Doo will take the heat of this performance to a new level.

Ten minutes before the show starts, backstage.

Nan Dou smiled, holding a suona in his hand, and said to Dan Feng and Jing Liu who were staring at him, "It has come to this point. You have practiced enough. You don't want Xiao Yu's performance to become imperfect because of you, right?"

"How dare you, Nan Dou, plot against this Dragon Lord!"

Xiaoyu, who was standing by, covered her mouth and laughed secretly, but Danfeng rolled his eyes at her.

"And you, Xiaoyu, when did you learn bad things from Nandou? How dare you lie to me!"

“Huff, huff, huff~ Brother Nandou forced me to do this. Xiaoyu can’t be pinched.”

The little fish turned his head to the side and whistled as he shook the pot.

Jingliu, who had remained silent, was much more straightforward. He stretched out his hand and grabbed Xiaoyu's ear, causing her to scream in pain: "It's falling off, it's falling off, my ear is going to fall off, please spare me, Sister Jingliu, I won't dare to do it again next time!"

"Hmph╯^╰!"

After Jingliu taught Xiaoyu a lesson, he let go of his hand.

"This performance will be based on the part I arranged for you before."

"Brother Danfeng, Sister Jingliu, is it okay for you to perform on stage?"

After the fight, Xiaoyu got serious and asked everyone one last time.

"Don't underestimate me. If Nandou can do it, I can do it too!"

Dan Feng twirled the flute in his hand and spoke with great confidence.

"This kind of thing is easier than fighting."

Jingliu gently stroked the pipa in his hand and said without showing any weakness.

As for Nandou, he had participated in the performance of Xiaoyu more than once over the past few hundred years just for fun.

Danfeng and Jingliu have accompanied Xiaoyu backstage more than once, but this time they are going to go on stage and perform in front of the public.

There's nothing I can do. Xiaoyu doesn't have many friends, so she can only rely on these reliable elders.

"The time has come, get ready to go on stage!"

"Brother Danfeng, Brother Nandou, Sister Jingliu, let's make this performance a legendary story of the Luofu Immortal Boat!"

Xiaoyu's passionate gaze swept across Danfeng, Jingliu, and finally fell on Nandou.

She would never forget the day more than 500 years ago when Nan Dou introduced her to music for the first time and her life changed because of it.

Later, she even learned the [Mind's Eye], and the world around her no longer felt strange or scary to her.

Also, some time ago, Nan Dou completely cured her eyesight. She will never forget this kindness.

That was why, when Nan Dou asked her this request a few days ago, she agreed without hesitation. This was also what she had always wanted to do - to perform on stage with her admired seniors.

This will be the most memorable day of her life!

"If it weren't for Senior Nan Dou, I would have chosen to end my life long ago because I couldn't bear the darkness and loneliness..."
