Genshin Impact: Can’t the executive just give up?

“Got it, little brother.

Let me make it clear first, my sexual orientation is very normal, even if you peek at me, I won't be tempted at all." Rhine smiled mischievously.

“……” Xiao was silent.

"I am the Three-Eyed Five-Manifested Immortal, but I look young."

After thinking about it, Xiao decided to explain it clearly.

"It turns out to be Immortal Xiao. My apologies for your disrespect." Rhine's expression suddenly became serious, revealing just the right amount of respect.

Now that Xiao has revealed his identity, it is not appropriate for Rhine to continue teasing him.

"I wonder why the immortal wants to see me?" Rhine asked with a bow.

Xiao looked at Rhine, his golden eyes reflecting the light from the lantern. "I'm just curious, since you are one of the Fatui, why do you want to protect Liyue?"

Xiao folded his arms.

He was just a little curious about Rhine, so he looked at him twice more.

Xiao is an immortal after all.

If Rhine had not happened to stay at the Wangshu Inn tonight and had not happened to climb to the top of the mountain to find him, he would never have easily appeared in front of mortals.

But now that he's here, Xiao wants to resolve the doubts in his heart. Although he doesn't care about the Fatui, he is concerned about the safety of Liyue.

Why did the notorious executor attack the Fatui and why did he help the Liyue people?

Rhine:?

How come even the most important people in Liyue know my identity?

Rhine suddenly felt that he revealed more about himself than the books on Liyue’s customs and practices had revealed.

Xiao saw the confusion in Rhine's eyes, but did not explain it to him.

That day, the Emperor came to the inn to visit Xiao and had a meal with him, and then he told him these things.

But the less mortals know about the affairs of immortals, the better.

"Well, Immortal Xiao, you may not believe it, but Fatui is actually the righteous side."

Rhine spread his hands and said slowly: "The ideals of the Ice Queen are lofty and do not contain any personal emotions. Her goal is not for the winter, but for the entire Teyvat.

But you also know that there are insects in every group. They distorted the Queen's original intention, causing many orders to be misinterpreted during implementation.

As the most loyal executive officer under the Queen, I naturally have the obligation to correct their thoughts. You must have seen what I did at Wuwang Slope and know that this is true. "

Far away in Liyue Harbor, Rosaline suddenly felt her nose itchy.

"Change for another bouquet of roses." Rosalin instructed her subordinates.

The firefly wizard beside him lowered his head and said: "Yes, sir, it's just that the room of "heretic" needs to be replaced with a new one?"

Rosalin frowned slightly, a little unhappy: "He... forget it, let's change them all."

……

"There are a lot of bugs among the Fatui."

Standing on the top floor of the inn, Xiao shook his head slowly.

"That's just them, but I'm different. I still firmly uphold the Queen's original intention. The actions I order have always been based on peace." Rhine bowed again and said sincerely.

Of course, he didn't know what the Queen was thinking, but he could just say whatever sounded best.

"Don't worry, Immortal Xiao. I am a peace-loving person and I will not have any bad intentions towards Liyue."

"That's good."

Xiao said coldly: "If a mortal stays in contact with me for too long, it is easy to be infected with karma. You should leave as soon as possible."

"Karma?" Rhine was a little curious.

Xiao has been fighting against the remnants of the demons for years and is haunted by karma, so he is unwilling to come into contact with mortals.

Other immortals may remain untainted by the mundane world because of their noble character, but Xiao has no choice.

Rhine asked: "Xiao Shangxian, can you use that karma barrier a bit? I don't mean anything else, I just want to see the world."

"Ignorance." Xiao shouted coldly.

Ordinary people are not aware of the harm of pollution, so they do not listen to advice and do not take karma seriously.

"Dull, but as you wish."

Xiao pointed lightly at Rhine, and a thin wisp of dark green mist emerged from his fingertips and flew towards Rhine.

Xiao looked at him coldly.

If this mortal can understand the harm of karma and behave himself in the future, his efforts will not be in vain.

However, Xiao watched the mist fly towards Rhine's brow, but it came into contact with some black and red colors, and then disappeared.

"What?" Xiao's eyes widened a little.

As an immortal, he would not attack mortals, but he controlled his karma to a very small level. Once someone came into contact with him, he would fall into fear.

At that time, he would use secret methods to eliminate the karma and make the person in front of him remember it for a long time.

Unfortunately, the effect Xiao wanted was obviously not achieved.

"Don't be so surprised, Immortal Xiao. I am an executive of the Fatui after all. It's normal to have some special skills, right?" Rhine said with a smile.

Several black and red cubes appeared from his forehead, flying around with a wisp of black air, and then penetrated into his body.

Rhine could clearly feel that the mist was being eroded and torn apart by "natural law" and soon turned into nothingness.

Even when the demons were alive, they were unable to defeat Sky Island. How could the curse that turned them into residue after death be able to deal with Rhine, who possessed the power of the maintainer of "heavenly justice"?

"You executive officers are special."

Xiao's voice still lacked warmth, but Rhine felt a little bit of... recognition in this sentence?

In the end, Rhine said goodbye to Xiao and slowly went downstairs.

There was no other way. At night, evil spirits were wreaking havoc, and Xiao had important things to do. It was impossible for him to lie in bed and sleep like Rhine.

Rhine was not interested in dealing with the evil spirits. After all, that meant he would need to stay up late or even all night, and his relationship with Xiao was not close enough for him to help with everything.

"Getting up early makes you healthy, going to bed late makes you feel relaxed~" a cheerful girl's voice came.

As Rhine walked to the door, he saw Walnut standing aside, with his arms folded across his chest, staring at him.

"I will keep in mind the teachings of Master Hu." Lai Yin looked at Hu Tao and said, "You are still awake so late, are you waiting for me?"

"Your face is thicker than a coffin." Walnut stuck out his tongue.

"I was about to fall asleep, but someone had no sense at all and stepped on the wooden planks, making a creaking sound, which woke me up."

"I'm so sorry." Rhine clasped his hands together.

"Okay, ha~ I'm going to sleep." Hu Tao waved his hand and left.

Rhine looked at Walnut's back and was a little confused: "She wouldn't be staring at me all the time, right?

Could it be that even Walnut knows my identity?"

Rhine shook his head slowly.

There is another possibility. Hu Tao knew that Xiao was in Wangshu Inn, and seeing some strange behavior from Rhine, she became curious and wanted to check it out.

"It can't be that I really woke her up, right?"

Although Rhine wore a long robe with wide sleeves, he did not change into Liyue's traditional cloth boots for ease of movement. He still wore the thick-soled winter boots.

It shouldn’t be that loud…right?
