Genshin Impact: Return of the Water Queen

"Hey! Ying, Ying! What's wrong with you?" Paimon was shocked when he saw Ying fainted. He quickly fell down and shook her body.

Luo Chaya noticed the power lingering around Ying, and she said to Paimon, "Don't shout! Ying has been pulled into the space of consciousness. You guard this place, I'll go in and take a look."

"Eh? Am I guarding it?" Paimon looked at Luo Chaya in surprise, but before she could say anything more, Luo Chaya had already released her power and projected her consciousness into the illusion that Ying was immersed in.

Here, there is an extremely huge pink giant tree!

"Luo Chaya, you came in too?" Ying, who was standing in front of the tree, noticed Luo Chaya and shouted in surprise.

Luo Chaya raised her head and looked at the tree. She felt the breath coming from the tree, which was a very familiar and friendly breath. The tree also responded to Luo Chaya's arrival. In an instant, a strong wind blew up the skirts of Luo Chaya and Ying.

"...It's...you..."

"Long time...see..."

"Please... don't... the world... forget me..."

"There seems to be a sound, is it the sound of this tree?" After hearing this vague sound, Ying turned around and looked at Luo Chaya.

Luo Chaya walked to the tree, stretched out her hand, and gently placed it on the trunk. "If I can, if I have time, I will..."

"No...you...are...taking...a risk..."

After finishing these intermittent words, the tree sent Luo Chaya and Ying out of this space.

Outside, Luo Chaya opened her eyes, and Paimeng asked anxiously: "What happened? Why hasn't she woken up yet?"

"Don't worry, she's fine. Let her pass out for a while and she'll wake up." Luo Chaya comforted Paimeng and told her not to worry. Paimeng was still worried after hearing this, but he was relieved after all.

Just be fine.

Luo Chaya looked around and said slowly, "The most important thing for us now is to find a place to settle the people down. We can't just lie on the ground, that's too indecent."

"You're right! Then you can pick her up..." Paimon nodded and said to Luo Chaya.

Luo Chaya didn't say anything. She just picked up the sleeping Ying like a princess and walked forward.

They had not walked far when they met Cole and Tinari who were coming towards them.

"Luo Chaya, look, there are people over there!" Paimeng pointed at the two people in front and said to Luo Chaya. She shouted this while floating beside Luo Chaya's head, making Luo Chaya speechless.

"I can hear you, so you don't have to speak so loudly." Luo Chaya sighed.

Tinari brought Cole to Luochaya. He looked at Luochaya, Paimon and the unconscious Ying and asked, "Excuse me, what's going on? Where are you from?"

Paimon quickly replied, "We came here from Liyue! But she fainted just after arriving at Xumi. Is there a place for us to rest?"

"Of course! Come with me!" Tinari nodded and quickly led a few people to Huachengcheng.

On the way, Tinari introduced himself and Kelai to Luochaya and the others, and said, "In Xumi, it is common for foreign travelers to faint in the rain forest! So the rangers occasionally pick up many fainted guests."

"So this is a regional characteristic?" Paimeng made a precise comment.

After putting Ying on the bed, Tinari said to Luo Chaya, "I'll go prepare some herbs for her. You can rest here for a while. If you need anything, you can talk to Ke Lai."

"Yes, tell me if you need help!" Cole nodded.

When Tinari brought the herbs over, Ying woke up from her coma. She looked at Luo Chaya and said, "Luo Chaya, what we just saw... is it real?"

Luo Chaya nodded slightly and said, "Yes, it really exists."

"Just now? Did you see hallucinations while you were unconscious?" After hearing Ying's words, Tinari thought that she had seen some hallucinations while she was unconscious. "Did you faint because you asked the scholars in the forest about the incense?"

"No, it's not." Ying shook her head.

"Can you tell me what you saw?" Tinari sat on the edge of the bed again, looking carefully at Ying's eyes and expression.

Ying nodded and described to Tinari the huge tree and red sky she saw in the illusion.

"Giant trees... and red sky..." After hearing this, Tinari fell silent. He first asked Ying to drink medicine, and then said: "It must be an illusion! Xumi has never had such plants."

"Is it an illusion?" Paimon blinked after hearing what Tinari said. She scratched her head and said, "But even Luo Chaya said it's not an illusion, so it definitely can't be an illusion. Could there be something you don't know?"

"Hmm? From what you said, this lady has an extraordinary background." After hearing what Paimon said, Tinari looked at Luo Chaya again.

After hearing Tinari's question, Paimon put his hands on his hips, raised his head proudly, and said, "Hehe! The one standing in front of you now is the famous Liyue Immortal, the True Lord of Pure Water Judgment, who once suppressed the Vortex Demon God Osel and his wife Ba Che in Liyue! She has lived for many, many years, so if she says this is not an illusion, then it must not be!"

"Liyue Immortal?" Tinari and Cole both looked at Luo Chaya.

Tinari said slowly, "I have heard that there are immortals in Liyue. According to legend, they were the ones who fought against the Rock God of Liyue. I never thought that Miss Luo Chaya is actually an immortal!"

"Hey! It's just an empty name, just an empty name, not worth mentioning!" Luo Chaya waved her hands, pretending to be humble.

Tinari continued to say to her: "Indeed, as you just said, whether it is the big tree or the red sky, it is not necessarily an illusion. Many people in Xumi have dreamed of this. But... I still hope that you will not publicize this situation."

"Don't publicize it? Why?" Paimon asked puzzledly.

Tinari sighed and said, "Because the sages of the Church of the Lords have issued an order that no one is allowed to spread anything about dreams, fairy tales, and legends in the land of Xumi."

"Why is this happening?" Ying frowned and looked at Tinari in confusion.

Tinari said to her: "These are some old stories of our Xumi. It is difficult to explain them in a short time. You should have a good rest. When I have time, I will slowly tell you."
