Genshin Impact: Xiao Tiandao becomes a game character

"Emperor." Yu Xi called out.

"How is she?" Zhongli asked.

"No problem." Yu Xi shook her head.

"Then let's talk?"

Yu Xi was silent for a moment: "In fact, sometimes knowing the truth is not necessarily a good thing."

Seeing Zhongli's determined eyes, Yuxi sighed and said, "Let's go."

So the two of them walked side by side towards the interior of Liyue Harbor. Yuxi cast the "Immortal Magic - Return Without Trace". The conversation between the two could not be heard by others, and it was even difficult for them to notice them. Even if someone passed by and heard it, they would subconsciously treat it as unimportant information and forget it.

"My name is Xiaoshi, and I am Shiyi's previous life." Yuxi said, "Of course, my name in this life is Yuxi."

"Oh?" Zhongli was very surprised when he heard that.

"In my previous life, I once climbed the immortal ladder in an attempt to become an immortal. Unfortunately, I failed in the end, and because of this, I developed a demon in my heart."

"My downfall is related to the destruction of the Immortal Ladder. The Immortal Ladder is spiritual, and I think my inner demon was affected by the resentment of the Immortal Ladder, becoming strange and unexpectedly brought to this life."

Zhongli nodded. Even the weakest demon god would explode into terrifying demon god residue when he fell, which contained extremely terrifying resentment. It was normal for the immortal ladder mentioned by Yuxi to have resentment.

"The moment I lost my inner demon, I was also awakened." Yu Xi said, paused, and said: "Maybe it's hard to understand. For a living being, the most important thing is memory. If my memory merges with Shi Yi's, then whoever's memory dominates will become the dominant one in the body. And our memories are divided into two parts, which means that we are essentially two people."

"For example, I will copy your memory and erase the memory of the other person. Then input your memory into that person, and you will perfectly possess that person. This is much more convenient than using the soul to possess the body, because there will be no rejection between the soul and the body."

"I understand." Zhongli nodded.

"Before I lost my inner demon, I didn't know what was going on, but I started to recall my past life. As you know, Shiyi was too weak and couldn't recognize her own heart. And because of the influence of the laws of heaven, she wouldn't live long. In order to save her, I chose to obey my inner demon."

"Submit to your inner demons?" Zhongli didn't quite understand.

"Well, the inner demon and the host have completely opposite personalities and thinking. So after obeying the inner demon, Shiyi is too weak, and I am too strong. Shiyi is too dependent on others, and I am too independent. Shiyi cannot recognize his own heart, and I have a firm heart of Tao."

Although, it is also because of this that Shiyi has a straightforward personality, while Yuxi is more arrogant.

"Shiyi is suppressed by the Ten Laws of Teyvat, and if I want to save her, I need to be stronger than the entire Teyvat. If I practice in Teyvat, I will never be able to grow stronger than Teyvat unless I drain Teyvat dry."

"Shiyi's time is running out. I must grow up fast enough, so I must practice the "ancient way". The "ancient way" is a cannibalistic law that cannot be recognized by you."

"Plus I am independent by nature, so I finally chose to stay away from you."

Listening to Yuxi's explanation, Zhongli nodded: "So you did that on purpose on Mount Aozang?"

Yu Xi was a little embarrassed when she heard this: "Yes, yes, yes."

There was no way, she couldn't say that because she didn't have much memory to recover, she couldn't control her personality well. And because Shiyi was quiet, she was... a little bit immature.

The truth was revealed, Zhongli was a little amused. The two little girls were both a worry to him. Couldn't he have just talked it out earlier? Why did he have to handle it all by himself? But it made sense. Yuxi was independent, and Shi would ask for help whenever she encountered a problem, so Yuxi naturally thought that she would solve it by herself.

"So what have you been doing lately?" Zhongli asked.

Yu Xi touched his chin and said, "I conquered some abyssal races and asked them to go to the small world every year to capture living creatures as offerings."

"This way I will, uh... have time to travel around Teyvat." Yu Xi said, blushing a little.

Zhongli didn't expose her. Yes, Shiyi likes to run around and always cause trouble, and Yuxi is really worried about him, so she came back to keep an eye on him. Look, after not seeing him for more than ten days, he has been with the top Abyss Demon God day and night. He is really good at finding trouble.

"Do you have to do this?" Zhongli asked about the cannibalism issue.

Yu Xi remained silent and did not answer, which meant she agreed.

Zhongli sighed, feeling a little conflicted for a moment. On one side was Yuxi, and on the other were countless innocent lives.

The two walked back to the Hall of Rebirth.

"Scare!" A fragrant breeze blew into the air, and Hu Tao jumped out in surprise, making a scary face.

Yu Xi was stunned. Oh no, she forgot to ask about Shi Yi's interpersonal relationships.

"Oh, you're not scared, that's boring. Oh, Xiaoshi, you finally came back to see me. How long have we not seen each other? You didn't even celebrate the last Lantern Festival." Seeing that Yuxi was not scared, Hu Tao didn't care, but instead started to scold Yuxi.

They seem to be very good friends.

[Team Voice] Yu Xi: Emperor, this is...

[Team voice] Zhongli: Master of Hu Tao, Xiaoshi’s friend.

"Oh, Hu Tao, don't be angry. I'm back now. I was in seclusion because of something. Don't be angry." Yu Xi pretended to be Shi Yi and said with a smile.

"No, I'm very angry. But I heard that you went to Inazuma as a diplomat. How about this, I'll give you a chance, how about you tell me some interesting things that happened to you in Inazuma?" Walnut said carelessly.

Something happened! I only knew that Xiao Shi was trying to turn back the timeline with Inazuma, but I didn't know anything else! I was busy trying to catch Dai Yin.

[Team voice] Yu Xi: Emperor, please come quickly, help us. What did Xiao Shi do in Inazuma?

[Team Voice] Zhongli: Well, from a common rational point of view, I don’t know about this matter. After all, these things are recorded by the Seven Stars.

Yu Xi was helpless when seeing this, so she could only cough and talk about how she captured a fugitive (actually, she captured Dai Yin), slapped someone who provoked her (actually, she failed to grill fish and got angry and hit the person with a mountain), and then she had a duel with Thor (actually, she was unilaterally abused).

"Wow, I haven't heard of it. Well, it seems that those people from Inazuma are no good. They haven't even found out all the heroic deeds of my Xiaoshi." Hu Tao said angrily.

Yu Xi was embarrassed. It turned out that you could find out everything. Then why were you asking me?

……

After finally coaxing Hu Tao into submission, Yu Xi returned to the laboratory and she regretted it.

Shiyi's liking for interpersonal communication does not mean that she does not like it. It seems that walking outside on behalf of Shiyi is not suitable for me.
