Genshin Impact: Return of the Water Queen

When the Heart of God was taken away by the "Lady", the contract between Zhongli and Luo Chaya came into effect. He would help Luo Chaya save Fontaine and help her plan, which was to help her save Fontaine.

Therefore, Zhongli was very serious when he said this. If Luo Chaya was not doing well in Inazuma, he really wouldn't mind going to Inazuma to help.

"Yes, thank you." Luo Chaya understood Zhongli's meaning. She thanked Zhongli and whispered, "I have something else to tell you."

"What's the matter?" Seeing Luo Chaya being so cautious, Zhongli thought it was a big deal and his expression became more serious.

Luo Chaya whispered to him, "I say...if it really doesn't work, why don't you apologize to Xiao and Shen He? I think they both have PTSD now. Look at Shen He, he doesn't even dare to sit next to you."

"What is PTSD?" Zhongli asked curiously after hearing Luo Chaya blurt out an unfamiliar term.

Luo Chaya was stunned, then explained with a smile: "Ah... this... this is what psychological shadow means."

"Psychological trauma?" Zhongli thought for a moment in silence, then nodded and said, "Well, what you said makes a lot of sense, but it's you, me, and that drunk poet who caused this. Do you need me to go to Mondstadt and drag him here?"

"Can you find Venti in Mondstadt? I think it's a bit risky... Why not look for him in Liyue, maybe you can find him." Luo Chaya made a precise comment.

"From a common sense perspective, this is indeed the style of the drunkard poet. Thank you for reminding me." Zhongli nodded and said. He quickly changed the subject, "By the way, I have a few bills sent from Fontaine, most of which are Fontaine's special desserts..."

"Eh?" Luo Chaya was stunned. She watched Zhongli take out the bills and hand them to her. Then he said to her, "I have already paid for these bills with my salary. You don't have to worry."

"This..." Luo Chaya was a little embarrassed. She smiled and said to Zhongli, "These are the expenses for my snacks for Funina. I originally told them that they could send them to Qun Yu Pavilion and Northland Bank, but those merchants don't seem to dare to send them to these two places, so I can only send them to you."

"It's okay, just consider it as me treating you two." Zhongli didn't care about it.

After Yun Jin on the stage finished singing, Luo Chaya also stood up and said to Zhongli, "Okay, I'm going to go prepare the things I need for the trip. Let's talk next time when we return to Liyue."

"Be careful on your journey." Zhongli said.

Luo Chaya hummed, and after walking a few steps, she suddenly stopped. Helicia, who was following behind her, almost bumped into her. Luo Chaya turned back to look at Zhongli and said, "Well, I have something else to tell you. Zhongyue and Xianyun seem to be blowing up graves everywhere in Liyue. You should pay attention. It will have a bad influence."

"Ah...for them, it's become a common occurrence. I will remind them to be careful." Zhongli sighed and nodded after hearing Luo Chaya's words.

Is this normal? No wonder the residents of Liyue Harbor didn't seem surprised just now. It turns out they are used to it... So pitiful.

After saying goodbye to Zhongli, Luochaya took Helicia to the streets of Liyue to buy some things for the journey, but when they were looking for a boat at the harbor, they ran into problems. No matter which boat it was, when they heard that they were going to Inazuma, they all rejected their request.

"Really... We can't just fly there directly, that would be too ostentatious..." Luo Chaya took Helicia around the harbor, but they couldn't find a boatman who dared to take them to Inazuma.

The sea off Inazuma was full of thunderstorms, so it would be no problem to go there in the normal way by boat. But if she flew there directly, it would be a bit too disrespectful to the Thunder God. After all, he was a reigning god, and she still had to show due respect.

When Luo Chaya and Helixia were walking back from the harbor, they ran into Ningguang.

"It's you." Ningguang smiled and greeted Luo Chaya after seeing her. "I just heard from Qianyanjun and Miss Xianyun that you've returned from Fontaine, so I came here specially to look for you."

"Looking for me?" Luo Chaya was stunned for a moment. She put her hands in front of her chest and took a step back. "The pit was blown up by the two of them. It has nothing to do with me. Master Ningguang, don't you want me to pay for it?"

"Ahem... Of course not!" Ningguang was very helpless after hearing what Luo Chaya said. She continued, "You just came back from the harbor, right? If I'm guessing correctly, you should be looking for a ship to Inazuma at the harbor? But the situation in Inazuma is turbulent right now, and ordinary ships definitely don't dare to go to Inazuma."

"What do you want to say?" Luo Chaya looked at Ningguang strangely. She stopped her on the street just to say this?

Ningguang continued, "The Liyue Seven Stars are willing to prepare a ship for you and send you to Inazuma. They will also endorse you as an official of Liyue, so that your activities in Inazuma will be easier and will not be affected too much."

"So good?" Luo Chaya was a little surprised. She looked at Ningguang and asked, "What are you planning?"

"As expected of you, you figured it out so quickly." Ningguang laughed. She said to Luo Chaya, "Of course I have my considerations. You will definitely return to Fontaine in the future. With your status, you are able to dominate everything in Fontaine. It is also an investment for Liyue to make it convenient for you, and it can take the relationship between Liyue and Fontaine to a higher level."

"As expected of Tianquan Ningguang, your business acumen is different." Luo Chaya smiled and continued, "Okay, I have no objection. Go and prepare the boat."

“Please wait a moment.” Ningguang nodded.

Ningguang quickly arranged a ship to take Luo Chaya out of the port. Although Luo Chaya's identity was not made public, the person who could be arranged by Tianquan Ningguang personally must have an extraordinary status. The people on the ship were also smart people, and they treated Luo Chaya and Helicia very politely and respectfully.

After sailing for a while, a terrible thunderstorm surrounding the sea off Inazuma could be seen ahead.

"Sir, we are in the Inazuma Sea ahead. We are about to cross a thunderstorm!" The crew on the ship came to Luo Chaya and told her about this matter. They also said, "It will be very dangerous outside the cabin. Please do not come out with your attendant."

"Just take care of yourselves. Don't worry about my safety." Luo Chaya said to them.

Although the power of a thunderstorm was terrifying, it was useless to her.
