Genshin Impact: Immortal Cave

Li Mochen suddenly became Ningguang's fake fiancé, which was really a headache. He was not afraid of anything else, but was mainly afraid of death. After all, he went out today and came home with a fiancée for no reason. If his special lover knew about it, the consequences would definitely be terrible.

His lover is not an ordinary person, but the famous Master Liuyunjiefeng. In other words, he is a domineering and somewhat hypocritical crane. Although the crane's yandere symptoms seem to have eased a lot during this period, it does not mean that she has fully recovered. If she were to be told that she has a fiancée, even if it is just in name, the crane would probably pick up a hatchet and give him a quick "six-horse torn apart" and the extra "horse" would probably be the first to suffer.

Just as Li Mochen was carefully slipping back to the "Liuyunjiefeng Cave Mansion", Shenhe turned his head towards him and asked, "You're back? How's Qiqi? Is she okay?"

At this moment, on the huge platform in the center of the cave, the "Giant Wind and Cloud Puppet" that was being made was almost completed. According to Shenhe, the puppet's body part could already move freely, and only some details needed to be fine-tuned. By the time of the "Seven Stars Summoning Immortals Ceremony", all adjustments should be completed. By then, Shenhe also wanted to drive this mechanical beast to give the Emperor, who had not seen him for a long time, a big surprise, so that he could see how powerful his mechanical skills were.

"Well, Qiqi is indeed fine, but I have encountered a problem here."

Li Mochen walked to the side of Shenhe and pretended to be embarrassed.

"Something's wrong? What happened?"

"Well...it's related to Sister Ningguang."

Upon hearing the name "Ningguang", Shenhe's beautiful eyebrows couldn't help but raise.

Ever since becoming lovers with Li Mochen, Shen He had classified the threats they posed to the women around him.

The first level is "safe and secure", including people like Keli, Qiqi, and Baishi. They are either too young or have no feelings for Li Mochen at all, so there is no risk in interacting with them.

The second level is "need to pay attention", such as Xiangling, Ganyu, Ying, Barbara, etc. Most of them are of marriageable age, outstanding in appearance, and may develop feelings for Li Mochen, so you must pay close attention when you approach them.

The third level is "Get away, vixen!" Only Ningguang is included in this level. So far, Ningguang is the only woman that Shenhe is wary of. Because she is really good at guessing people's hearts, coupled with her beautiful and noble appearance, it is easy for her to seduce men.

So, when Shen He learned that Ning Guang had caused trouble for Li Mochen, he immediately became alert: "Is she asking you for help again this time?"

"Well, first of all, you have to know that she and I are nominally siblings."

"Of course I know. She is approaching you under this pretext. No one would believe what you call sworn siblings."

Shen He snorted coldly. She was not a novice in love, but a love veteran who was familiar with all kinds of love novels. The favorite trick of those "tea art girls" in novels was to approach men as siblings first, and then gradually erode the other party's psychological defenses.

"I've always felt that Ningguang would reach this day sooner or later. She would definitely not be satisfied with being just your sister in name only and would definitely continue to stay close to you."

As he spoke, Shenhe looked up at the sky, acting like a master. Unfortunately, she guessed right this time.

Just today, Ningguang really took that step. She used the excuse of being harassed by many suitors to successfully upgrade her status from "sister" to "fiancée".

Hearing the prophecy of Shenhe coming true, Li Mochen's forehead was covered with cold sweat. What should I do now? If I tell her the truth now and say that all this is just acting, she will definitely not believe it.

Instantly, Li Mochen felt as if he was standing at a crossroads in his life. Although he could keep it a secret from Shenhe today, the truth would eventually come to light. After all, Shenhe's adopted daughter Ganyu was still working in Liyue Harbor. How could Ganyu not know about what happened today? Sooner or later, she would tell her adoptive mother the news.

Rather than delaying and waiting to be exposed by Ganyu, it is better to confess to Shenhe right from the beginning. Being honest is always better than denying. As for how wide this "forgiveness" is, and whether it can be wide enough to save his life in this storm, it is unknown.

However, Li Mochen took a deep breath and decided to confess everything to his lover. After all, if two people really love each other, the most basic thing is to be sincere to each other, otherwise what is the difference between it and acting?

"Sister He, can you change back into human form?"

"Change back to human form? Why do you suddenly want to do this? I feel quite comfortable the way I am now."

"Although your crane form is also beautiful, I prefer your human form."

Li Mochen said this so frankly that Shen He was stunned and a slight blush appeared on his face.

What's going on? Why is this guy so honest today?

However, since his lover asked, the divine crane turned around and returned to human form.

"So beautiful, you look best in human form after all."

Seeing her beautiful and fairy-like figure, Li Mochen couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

"Ahem, I asked you to turn back into a human, not because I wanted to make you happy."

Although Shen He felt very happy after hearing Li Mochen's praise, he still turned around and pretended to be serious.

"Actually, I have something to tell you truthfully. We are lovers and I don't want to hide anything from you."

At this moment, Li Mochen's expression became serious. Although Shenhe was surprised by his sudden change, he still nodded.

"It's right to be honest. Since we are in a relationship, there is nothing that cannot be explained clearly."

"Really?"

"Of course it's true. As long as you tell me honestly, there's nothing I can't accept."

"Oh, that's great. Actually, Sister Ningguang asked me to pretend to be her fiancé, so I wanted to say..."

Li Mochen was just halfway through his words when he saw Shen He's mouth curl up into a murderous smile. Then, she gently raised her slender white hand, and a breath of "clouds and winds" magical power was ready to be released from her hand...

Li Mochen later recalled that extremely dangerous moment.

The fatal blow was only a centimeter away from his face, but a quarter of a second later, he was ready to run away.

"Bang!" A deafening explosion came from deep in the cave.

Fortunately, Li Mochen thought he ran fast enough, otherwise he would have been paralyzed by that blow just now.

Li Mochen quickly retreated a few meters away and looked at the cold murderous intent on Shenhe's face, and a trace of regret immediately surged in his heart.

Originally Shen He acted like a shy little girl, but as soon as he opened his mouth to speak, the other person's face changed instantly.

The speed at which his expression changes is even faster than turning the pages of a book, making it impossible to guard against.

"Wait, Sister He, I already told you that it was just acting! It was just to deal with those guys pursuing her!"

Li Mochen hurriedly explained, trying to calm the now furious Shenhe.

"acting?"

Shenhe raised his head and questioned Li Mochen in a cold tone.

“Really, nothing happened between me and her.”

"novel……"

"Um?"

"Those unfaithful men in novels always say this!"

The divine crane seemed to recall the plot in the novel, and mobilized the power of the wind element even more angrily, attacking Li Mochen frantically.

Looking at her posture, it seemed as if she wanted to tear Li Mochen into pieces.

"What kind of crappy novel are you reading? Why do all the men in it cheat on their husbands?"

If he had extra energy, Li Mochen really wanted to retort loudly.

However, gusts of wind as fierce as flowing clouds came one after another, almost smashing his body to pieces.

When the divine crane began to attack fiercely, Li Mochen truly realized that her title was not undeserved.

The high-density compressed wind force formed into cloud shapes and attacked him fiercely.

It looks like auspicious clouds filling the sky, but in reality it is like purgatory on earth.

In just a few seconds, the divine crane had performed the magic technique called "Flying Clouds and Wild Winds" dozens of times.

Whether it is the attack speed, range or power, Li Mochen’s existing binding skills cannot withstand it.

Although Shenhe seemed to be attacking randomly due to his rage, the accuracy of his attacks was extremely low, allowing Li Mochen to dodge.

But if she is allowed to continue doing this, this cave will soon become as horrible as if it had been hit by a typhoon.

"No... I have to find a way to calm her down."

Realizing that words alone could not appease Sister He, Li Mochen hardened his heart and decided to take the risk and take action.

"Exterior Scenery Technique: Heart Steel!"

As his legs shone with golden light, his strong body actually went against the wind and rushed straight towards the divine crane!

"This guy actually dared to..."

Shenhe was using the technique of retaining clouds and borrowing wind to the fullest, but she didn't expect Li Mochen to be so bold as to rush straight towards her.

Caught off guard, the next moment, Shenhe fell into Li Mochen's warm embrace.

"Don't worry, let me explain it to you slowly, okay?"

After hugging Shenhe, Li Mochen gently stroked her jade-white hair as if he was comforting a cat.

"Uh... this... what on earth is this..."

Being hugged so tightly, Shen He suddenly found it difficult to breathe, his vision went dark, and he almost fainted.

After all, although the two of them were together as lovers before, the level of their feelings was only at the level of elementary school students, and holding hands was already the limit.

During this period of time, Li Mochen and the divine crane had never had such close contact.

And now, in front of her was his warm chest, and behind her was her long hair being gently combed by a hand.

Even though Shenhe, who was previously full of anger and like a resentful woman, could not resist this feeling at this moment and was immersed in it involuntarily.

Seeing that Shenhe stopped struggling, Li Mochen continued to hold her and gently stroked her soft hair.

The divine crane's hair is extremely smooth, like fine threads carefully woven from white jade, and feels extremely wonderful to the touch.

In this way, Li Mochen stroked her hair while hugging her, and time passed quietly.

After a while, Shenhe sighed softly and slowly pulled his head out of Li Mochen's arms.

"I guess Ningguang told you that she was troubled by being pursued by someone, so she tricked you into falling for it."

As a bystander, Shenhe knew Ningguang's thoughts very well. How could she be bothered by such a trivial matter as being pursued by someone?

Given Ningguang's personality, she is not the kind of woman who would easily get bothered by such trivial matters, and Shenhe knows this very well.

“… maybe, but it doesn’t really matter.”

However, Li Mochen shook his head and smiled after hearing this, and gave Shenhe an affectionate look.

"What's the meaning?"

"Even if Sister Ningguang played some tricks, my feelings for you will not change because of this. I will always like you."

As he said this, he stared into Shenhe's eyes, and their eyes met, exploring each other's inner world.

Faced with such a sincere gaze, even Shenhe couldn't help but be deeply attracted by it.

"Yes, how could I doubt Mo Chen? He was just deceived and used by Ningguang."

Thinking of this, Shen He nodded, accepting Li Mochen's "betrayal".

Seeing her nod, Li Mochen breathed a sigh of relief, but his attention was immediately attracted by the emerald green eyes of Shenhe.

The eyes of the divine crane are stunningly beautiful, clear and green, like bright and translucent jade.

Especially when the two people were looking at each other at such a close distance, every detail was clearly visible.

Li Mochen looked at the divine crane, and the divine crane responded to his gaze unconsciously.

The two of them just stared at each other silently, as if they were competing to see whose eyes could open wider.

"Wait, Mo Chen and I are in a relationship, and the atmosphere right now... seems... a bit like the scene in a novel?"

A few minutes later, Shenhe suddenly realized that something was wrong. This situation was obviously not normal.

All along, the interactions between Li Mochen and Shenhe have been very proper and polite, and the two have never overstepped the line.

In a situation like this, it should be a matter of course that nothing would happen.

Yet even with their heads so close together, the look is somewhat misleading.

"Master Liuyun! I have something important to discuss with you...eh?"

At this moment, a figure suddenly broke into the cave.

The person had two horns on her head and a face like a blooming peach blossom. She was the adopted daughter of the divine crane - Ganyu.

Ganyu seemed to have urgent matters to deal with and needed to find the divine crane, so she rushed into the cave without notifying anyone.

So, she happened to witness her adoptive mother and her best friend looking at each other, their eyes locked, as if they were about to perform some intimate act.

For a moment, Ganyu froze because she misunderstood the situation.

At the same time, Shen He and Li Mochen were also stunned. The three of them stood there awkwardly, as if they could hear the sound of a pin drop.
