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

After fate intervened, Zhu Xi was completely bound to Nan Dou's soul, which means that he can also appear and use it in the sea of ​​​​consciousness.

Zhu Xi transformed himself into dragon scale armor that covered Nan Dou's body, protecting him from the erosion of the sea of ​​blood.

To Nan Dou's regret, the Blood Sea Evil Spirit was not in the shallow layer. It was very likely that it was frightened by the Tree of Life and hid in the depths of the Blood Sea.

After entering the sea of ​​blood, Nan Dou realized that Shen He's entire sea of ​​consciousness was dyed blood red under the frozen ice.

"No, it doesn't have that ability. It and Shen He share the same soul. Although it has temporarily suppressed Shen He, it is impossible for it to pollute the entire sea of ​​consciousness."

After figuring this out, Nan Dou closed his eyes, and the powerful soul power spread quickly to every corner of the sea of ​​​​consciousness like a radar.

The solid ice that freezes the sea surface is actually the self-protection mechanism of Shen He's sea of ​​consciousness, preventing the blood sea evil spirits from invading the entire sea of ​​consciousness and thus controlling the body.

"found it!"

After a long time, Nan Dou opened his eyes, and in the sea of ​​blood shrouded in murderous intent and evil spirit, he found a pure place.

Nan Dou set off immediately, like a swimming dragon in the sea water.

The noise of Nan Dou searching for Shen He's trace just now alarmed the hidden Blood Sea Evil Spirit. It knew that once Nan Dou found Shen He's self-consciousness, it would be in great danger.

The Blood Sea Evil Spirit does not have a fixed entity. The entire blood sea is the source of its power. As long as the blood sea does not dry up, it can be resurrected infinitely.

But at the same time, its power is also limited by the sea of ​​blood, and the sea of ​​blood is limited by Shen He.

As a Liyue immortal, Shen He is strong enough to fight against some weak demons. If it were Nan Dou before fate intervened last time, there would be a great possibility that he would be defeated if he rashly entered the sea of ​​blood.

But now... I can only say haha.

The blood sea evil spirits kept transforming into various monsters and attacking Nan Dou from all directions.

But every time he was bounced away by a burst of green light before he could get close to Nan Dou.

After the sudden baptism, Nan Dou's soul power is no longer the same as before. How can the evil spirit relying on Shen He's sea of ​​consciousness have the qualifications to challenge him?

If it weren't for Shen He's safety, it wouldn't be difficult for Nan Dou to let the Tree of Life purify the entire sea of ​​blood.

Soon, Nan Dou found a piece of pure glacier in the deepest part of the sea of ​​blood.

Shen He's self-consciousness is frozen in the glacier, which is the self that embodies Shen He's most authentic emotions.

If it were like the emotionally indifferent Shen He in the past few decades, it would be fine, and the Blood Sea Evil Spirit would find it difficult to gain any advantage.

But Shen He here has her most vulnerable part. Shen He also knows that it is difficult for her to compete with the Blood Sea Evil Spirit. In the end, she chose to freeze herself completely to avoid causing trouble to Nan Dou and others.

"Silly girl, I'm here to save you."

Nan Dou stretched out his hand, the thick ice melted, and Shen He's self-consciousness floated out.

Nan Dou pointed his finger at Shen He's brow, and a warm energy instantly poured into him.

"!!!"

Shen He's eyes opened, and memories of this period of time emerged in his mind.

"Senior Nandou, you came to save me..."

At this time, Shen He was truly conscious of all her emotions. When she saw Nan Dou coming, ripples appeared in her beautiful eyes. She looked so pitiful, which made Nan Dou very uncomfortable.

If you think about it carefully, Shen He has been emotionally closed since childhood. Although her IQ is normally developed, she has lived in the deep mountains and forests for many years. She is simply a pure girl who cannot be more innocent.

"Okay, time is running out. Let's catch up after we deal with that guy."

Nan Dou lowered his head slightly and stared at Shen He seriously, which made her lower her head and look away. She was actually shy.

"Tsk tsk... This kind of Shen He is too hard to get used to."

After secretly complaining in his heart, Nan Dou began to tell Shen He what to do next.

After a while, the innocent Shen He nodded seriously: "I understand, Senior Nan Dou, I will do it!"

"Very good, very energetic!"

What Nan Dou has to do is to let Shen He completely devour the Blood Sea Evil Spirit and completely control her fate, which is not a difficult task for Nan Dou.

One day later.

Nan Dou, who was sitting next to Shen He, suddenly opened his eyes.

When Nan Dou opened his eyes, he saw Master Liuyun Jiefeng standing not far in front of him, leaning against the door sill, dozing with his head drooping.

As an immortal, he wouldn't be this sleepy even if he didn't rest for a month.

It's likely that Master Liuyun Jiefeng will have few days of peaceful rest after Nandou left.

"Oh, how pitiful are the parents in the world."

Although Zhenjun Liuyun Jiefeng has always claimed to be Shen He's master, in fact she raised Shen He since he was a child, so it is not an exaggeration to say that she is Shen He's biological mother.

Nan Dou waved his hand and sent a ray of life energy, allowing Master Liuyun Jiefeng to sleep more peacefully.

Then he sat quietly on the stool and fell asleep. Even he would feel tired after tossing around in Shen He's sea of ​​consciousness for such a long time. It was a good opportunity for him to take a rest before Shen He woke up.

For a moment, the three people in the room fell into a sweet dream.

One day later...

Shen He woke up from a long sleep, opened his eyes and saw the familiar ceiling.

Because he had slept for a long time, his body felt a little stiff. After a brief period of adaptation, Shen He raised his head and scanned the room.

Then he found Nan Dou and his master sleeping soundly.

Nan Dou and Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhen Jun were awakened by the noise of Shen He waking up.

"Shen He, are you okay?!"

Master Liuyun Jiefeng instantly appeared in front of Shen He and examined her body in a somewhat helpless manner.

"Wuwuwu~~~ Master, I'm fine. I'm sorry for making you worry!"

What both of them didn't expect was that Shen He grabbed the wings of Master Liuyunjiefeng and burst into tears.

Nan Dou's eyes widened suddenly. Although he had expected that Shen He would change after recovering his emotions, such a drastic change still made him a little uncomfortable.

"It's okay...it's okay...as long as you're okay, I can finally rest assured."

After a brief moment of shock, Master Liuyun Jiefeng quickly regained his composure and hugged Shen He tenderly.

Nan Dou watched this touching scene of a loving mother and a filial daughter with deep emotion. He couldn't help but think of Hu Tao who was far away in Liyue Harbor. Calculating the time, he had been away for more than half a year, and he didn't know how lonely Hu Tao must be.

After the warmth, Shen He did not forget the important matters.

The so-called murderous intent and evil spirit are ultimately just a special kind of energy. With the help of Nan Dou, it is not a difficult problem to solve.

To this day, the Tree of Life is still rooted in Shen He's thawed sea of ​​consciousness, constantly absorbing the source of the blood sea evil spirits as nutrients, and has completely become Shen He's power.

"Master, look."

Shen He greeted Master Liuyun Jiefeng, and then carefully mobilized the new and unfamiliar power in his body.

Nan Dou also came closer curiously, wanting to see what special power belonged to Shen He's unique fate.

As Shen He began to use his power, the temperature in the room dropped suddenly.

Shen He's hair, which had turned back to black because the seal was lifted, began to change again, but this time it did not turn white, but blood red.

Shen He's pupils turned blood red, and an extremely strong smell of blood emanated from her body. Even Nan Dou felt a dangerous aura from her.

"This is……?"

True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng couldn't help but take a few steps back, shocked by the terrifying aura emanating from Shen He.

Shen He's fate, or her special physique, is a combination of pure murderous intent and evil spirit.

This is not over yet. Shen He pinched his hand seals and the summoned talisman spirit changed from its original icy white color to an extremely ferocious blood red, and its appearance also became like a demon.

"Tsk tsk, this doesn't look like a serious power, it's too murderous!"

Nan Dou nodded, commenting to himself.

Soon, Shen He took back his power, and it would take more time to master this new power.

"Okay, now that Shen He is fine, I will go home first. Hu Tao is still waiting for me."

Seeing that Shen He was fine, Nan Dou waved and prepared to leave.

"(Nandou) Nandou-senpai, please wait a moment!"

Shen He grabbed Nan Dou's arm, and Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhen Jun followed closely behind.

"In order to save me, you must have searched all over Teyvat and gone through many hardships..."

Nan Dou scratched his head and thought to himself that it wasn’t that difficult, it just took a little longer.

In the end, Nan Dou left, but before leaving, Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun and Shen He told him that they would thank him and give him some gifts when they met next time.

Nan Dou didn't take it seriously. There were few things in Teyvat that could interest him now. Could it be possible that Master Liuyun Jiefeng could promise Shenhe to him?

"How is that possible? There's such a huge age difference between us, and I consider Shen He a cute junior."

Nan Dou shook his head, dispelling some unrealistic fantasies.

……

A few hours later, Nan Dou returned to the Hall of Rebirth.

The sky just got brighter at this time, and we were just in time to have breakfast at the Wangsheng Hall.

In the courtyard where the master of the Wangsheng Hall lives.

The funeral director who came to deliver breakfast looked at Hu Tao, who was holding her chin with both hands and had lifeless eyes, and couldn't help but say, "Master, if you don't eat now, the food will get cold."

"It's okay, I like to eat cold food."

Hu Tao's expression didn't change as she replied casually.

"Hey." The funeral director who had been taking care of Hu Tao for many years knew very well what had caused Hu Tao to become what she is now. In order to let Hu Tao eat immediately, he had to say, "Master, your brother is very capable and will definitely return safely."

"When he comes back and sees you like this, he will be very worried."

After hearing what the funeral director said, Hu Tao finally responded: "Yes, my brother told me to take good care of myself. I want to eat!"

But Hu Tao thought again, Nan Dou has been away for such a long time this time, what if he doesn't come back, just like that time...

Suddenly, Walnut lost his appetite again.

It was at this moment that the figure that Hu Tao had been thinking about day and night appeared in the courtyard.

"Hmm~ What smells so good?"

"It's a pity that no one eats such a good breakfast."

Nan Dou's figure flashed, and he walked from the door to Hu Tao's table in a few steps.

From the moment she heard Nan Dou's voice, Hu Tao's eyes were fixed, as if she had no reaction.

Nan Dou bent down, looked at Hu Tao with a smiling face, and said softly: "Little Hu Tao, brother is back."

"elder brother!"

As if suddenly activated, Hu Tao pounced towards Nan Dou.

Nandou straightened up as expected and reached out to catch Kurumi.

Feeling the weight of Hu Tao's body, Nan Dou's heart was filled with happiness, and the scene of Master Shen He and his apprentice meeting appeared in his mind.

Thinking about it this way, he is also someone who is expected and cared for by others.

"Woooooo~~~~"

Just as Nan Dou was immersed in the warmth of family affection, Hu Tao buried her head in his arms and burst into tears.

Nan Dou was a little panicked, not knowing what was going on: "What's wrong? What's wrong? Why are you crying, Kurumi?!"

"I thought...my brother didn't want me anymore!"

Hu Tao cried with tears and snot, and at least Nan Dou felt that he could not keep his clothes.

The funeral home that came to deliver the meal sensibly left the compound, closed the gate, and even stood guard outside the door to prevent anyone from disturbing the reunion of the brother and sister.

The most important thing is not to let outsiders see Hu Tao in this state. The image of the head of the Wangsheng Hall must be maintained.

In fact, except for the time when her grandfather passed away, Hu Tao had never cried as sadly as she did now.

"Okay, okay, isn't my brother back?"

"Brother said he would never abandon Walnut again, and he won't break his promise."

Nan Dou gently stroked Kurumi's back with his hand, comforting her.

Nandou could understand Kurumi's feelings.

Losing something makes people very sad. If you gain something and then lose it, the sadness will be doubled.

"I know... I believe my brother... but I can't stop, I'm so sad... I want to cry!"

Hu Tao cried and spoke intermittently.

"It's okay, it's okay. Just cry for a while, it will feel better after you cry it out."

Nan Dou knew that Hu Tao had been crying for too long and needed to vent her emotions, so he let her continue crying and just accompanied her quietly.

After a while, Hu Tao's crying finally stopped, and her emotions were almost vented.

Hu Tao, who was lying in Nan Dou's arms, looked up quietly with some embarrassment, but found that Nan Dou was staring at her.

"Hey, brother, don't look at that!"

Hu Tao quickly reached out to cover Nan Dou's face.

Nan Dou's expression suddenly changed, and he tilted his head backwards desperately: "No, no, no, your hands are full of snot, don't wipe it on my face!"

After the fight, the brother and sister looked at each other.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"Little cat!"

"Brother, don't laugh at me!"

"It would be inappropriate if I didn't laugh at you during this rare opportunity. Come on, take a picture."

"don't want!!!"

"Crack!"

After all, Hu Tao's reaction was not as fast as Nan Dou's, who had already planned it, and a precious photo was born.

An hour later, Hu Tao changed her clothes and came out of the house. The corners of her eyes on her fair face were red, and you could see traces of crying.

Nan Dou's body was also clean again, and he looked at the photo again and again with endless aftertaste.

Hu Tao quietly moved behind Nan Dou and pounced on the photo in his hand.

"I've discovered you a long time ago!"

Nan Dou skillfully turned his body slightly to the side, and Hu Tao missed him. Then he grabbed Hu Tao's belt with his free hand.

"Ahhh! Give me that photo!"

Walnut, who was lifted into the air by Nan Dou, was flapping his arms and legs.

"Hehe, this is my brother's lifelong treasure."

The brother and sister kept fighting and playing, and only after the funeral home called them many times did Hu Tao agree to go out.

As the head of the Wangsheng Hall, Hu Tao is very busy when he has schedules.

After Hu Tao left, Nan Dou took out the photo again, his eyes full of tenderness.

Only in front of him would Hu Tao fully reveal her true self, crying and making a fuss as she pleased. She was just a young sister who had a brother to rely on.

But outside, Hu Tao had to pretend to be the trustworthy leader of the Wangsheng Hall.

"Well, let's go take a look around and see who is in Liyue Harbor. Come back in the evening."

"If Hu Tao is not busy, why not take her out to play during this time?"

"..."
