Genshin Impact: The Sharpshooter of Teyvat

Seeing that Nashida did not use her authority as the God of Grass, Kong gently patted Shao Yun on the shoulder and said, "There is no time to lose. I will go to the World Tree immediately."

"I'll leave you the location information of the Abyss Node. As for the Grass God... I'll leave it to you. I believe you will make the best choice."

When Nashida heard what Kong said, her eyes widened instantly. Apart from wanting to attack the World Tree, his words also implied that Shao Yun was asking her to kill her.

She quickly stretched out her hands, tightly grasped Shao Yun's sleeves, and shouted at the top of her lungs: "No! Absolutely not! You damned fellows, don't even think about getting your hands on the World Tree!"

"Even if I use up my last bit of strength, I will fight you to the end, until I die!"

Faced with such a fierce reaction from Nashida, Kong seemed to have heard nothing and continued to command the members of the Abyss Cult to activate the Abyss Portal.

With a flash of dazzling light, their figures gradually disappeared from the spot.

At this moment, only Shao Yun and Nashida, who was lying on the ground and seriously injured, were left.

Shao Yun had already understood the deep meaning of his brother-in-law's words just now. He wanted to eliminate Nashida, the potential threat, to avoid any unnecessary complications or unexpected events.

However, when he slowly shifted his gaze back to the injured Grass God in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a trace of hesitation and reluctance in his heart.

Especially when Shao Yun stared at Nashida's pale and delicate face and her desperate eyes, two graves with crosses on them kept flashing in his mind.

This scene kept lingering in his mind, and Shao Yun was unable to make up his mind in the end.

So, Shao Yun gently smoothed the messy hair on Nashida's forehead and tried to make his voice sound gentler.

"Nashida, to be honest, I don't want to kill you. But the situation is urgent now, and I can't show any mercy. So, please calm down for a while and stop struggling in vain. If you cooperate with me, you can survive."

Afterwards, Shao Yun didn't care whether Nashida agreed or not, and hugged Nashida in his arms.

Nashida fell defenselessly into Shao Yun's warm and strong arms. If Nashida could still use even a little bit of strength at this moment, she would open her mouth desperately and bite Shao Yun hard to let him know that she was not to be trifled with.

However, as the power of the abyss was raging wildly within her petite body, corroding every inch of her skin and bones, she could only curse angrily with the little strength she had left.

"Get lost! You crazy man! I have already admitted my mistake to you, but you actually teamed up with the Abyss Cult and attempted to destroy the entire Teyvat continent!"

Shao Yun looked down at Nashida, who was as small and exquisite as a delicate doll in his arms, and said helplessly: "I have no choice... Maybe this is the 'karma cycle'!"

Then, his expression suddenly turned grim, and he said coldly: "At this point, in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, Nashida, I have to keep you locked up for a while longer like before."

Afterwards, Shao Yun hugged Nashida tightly and strode towards the meditation device that had once imprisoned her.

Seeing that she was about to be locked up again, Nashida, who was held in Shao Yun's arms, twisted her body with all her might, trying to break free from Shao Yun.

"You devil! You are the same as those great sages!"

Shao Yun said expressionlessly: "The only difference is that I will let you out! Instead of locking you up forever! The premise is that you are obedient!"

After saying that, Shao Yun threw Nashida into the meditation device. When he closed the device, he also threw a bottle of ordinary healing medicine into it.

Nashida held on to her body, pounding the pale green barrier in front of her with all her might, and shouted, "Let me out, I'm going to kill you!"

Through the light green barrier of the meditation device, Shao Yun fearlessly opened his arms and said, "There are many people who want to kill me, but the premise is that you are healthy! Take your medicine and have a good rest!"

……

At this moment, the four Deep Sin Baptists of the Abyss Cult were surrounding the World Tree, muttering to themselves, and a magic circle flashing with strange light slowly emerged.

This magic circle gradually connected the World Tree and the Loom of Destiny together.

At this moment, Shao Yun passed through the abyss portal and came to Kong's side.

"Am I late?"

Kong turned around and saw Shao Yun finally arrived. A relieved smile appeared on his face and he replied, "You came at the right time! The Loom of Destiny has successfully established a connection with the World Tree!"

When his gaze once again turned to the connected World Tree and Kalibel, a trace of loneliness that was difficult to conceal was revealed in his eyes.

"It's a pity that Kalibel will never be able to witness this moment in person."

Compared to Kong's deep longing for Kalibel, Shao Yun rubbed his hands excitedly and shouted excitedly: "Great! Since everything is ready, can we start the final battle now?"

Kong looked at Shao Yun's excited and eager look.

He swallowed hard, then slowly lowered his head and said in a low voice: "Sorry..."

Seeing Kong making an apologetic expression, Shao Yun was stunned, thinking that Kong was going to back out again.

"What are you sorry about? Now everything is ready, why are you backing out again?!"

Kong knew that Shao Yun had misunderstood what he had just said, so he quickly began to explain.

"I'm not backing down! It's just... oh, I didn't expect things to go so smoothly. I simply can't store up enough energy to overthrow the throne of Heavenly Justice!"

Shao Yun suddenly felt a rush of blood to his head and he almost fainted from anger.

"Then why didn't you say it earlier?"

After hearing this, Kong really felt that he was more wronged than Dou E.

"I wanted to explain it to you clearly at that time, but you seemed to be possessed. You wouldn't listen to anything I said. You were so reckless, like a mad bull out of control, you didn't care about anything!"

As soon as Kong finished speaking, Shao Yun instantly raised his fists as big as sandbags, and it seemed that he was going to give his brother-in-law a good beating. A fierce family war was about to break out.

However, the only remaining trace of rationality finally overcame the impulse, and Shao Yun reluctantly slowly loosened his clenched fist and put it down helplessly.

"This is just like robbing a bank, and finally rushing to the vault door, only to suddenly realize that you didn't bring any explosives!"

At this moment, Shao Yun was so angry that he was furious.

Seeing this, Kong hurriedly explained: "Don't worry, although the situation did not meet your expectations, it is not to say that you have gained nothing and returned empty-handed!"

“We can still take some actions to make a difference!”

When Shao Yun heard that there was a chance for a turnaround, he calmed down immediately.

"what?"

Sora began to explain slowly.

"The energy I currently possess is far from enough to completely overturn the throne of the God of Heaven, but it is more than enough to edit the fate of an ordinary person."

"So, I plan to do an experiment first to accumulate some experience."

At this point, Kong paused, then continued, "We can give it a try, letting those who should die survive and those who should live die, so that we can accumulate some experience first."

Having said that, Kong handed this rare opportunity that could change someone's destiny directly to Shao Yun.

"Brother-in-law, I leave it to you to change a person's fate. You have helped me a lot and you deserve this opportunity."

After listening to Kong's detailed explanation, Shao Yun sighed helplessly.

"Damn it, so they don't have enough explosives, so they can only blow a hole in the vault wall? Reach in, grab a few gold bricks and leave?"

Even so, this result is still far from the main goal set initially, but as the saying goes, something is better than nothing.

It's better than giving up halfway...

Back to the topic, Shao Yun thought about whose fate he wanted to change.

For ordinary people, there are only a few people that they know.

Gloria? Her boyfriend is back, so she doesn't need...

Lesig Lawrence? He ended up well enough...

Teppei? He has changed his fate. Shinnojo? Who is he? I don’t know him!

As Shao Yun thought about it, he finally thought of a suitable candidate.

"Liyue, there is a woman named Huanian. See if you can find a way to keep her alive!"

Hearing this, Kong nodded, and then gave orders to the four people who were baptized in deep sins.

The four people baptized in deep sins immediately took action and began to search for all the information about Huanian inside the World Tree.

However, while they were busy, Kong's curiosity suddenly got the better of him and he couldn't help but ask a question.

"Who is Huanian?"

Shao Yun briefly told his brother-in-law about the woman in Huanian.

"A poor woman. She is the only one who I personally think should not die..."

Kong listened to Shao Yun's narration with a calm expression on his face.

"Oh, so that's it..."

Time passed minute by minute, and finally, the deep voice of a deep sin baptist broke the silence.

"I found it! But... it's strange, something is not right! Your Highness, something is wrong!"

Hearing this, Kong's head suddenly tightened, and an ominous premonition came over him.

"What's wrong? Tell me!"

At this time, the Deep Sin Baptist who discovered the problem replied: "According to the inference, if this woman named Huanian is to survive, then according to the cause and effect relationship, there should be three other people who can survive as well.

"But the current situation is that no matter how we calculate, Hua Chu, Lord De'an, and Jian Qiu will not be able to escape death."

"Forcing Huanian to survive now could result in a serious mistake."

When he heard that it was a family of three, his nervous heart instantly relaxed. He thought that this couldn't be a big deal.

"Don't worry about these three. Their souls have been taken away by the devil! Find a way to make the logic round and kill these three. If possible."

The person who was baptized in deep sins was going to follow Shao Yun's method, but he was confused about how to write them to death next.

"That's fine, but what logic can you use to sustain the death of three people?"

After a little thought, Shao Yun gave a suggestion.

"You can probably write it like this: Jianqiu attempted to murder Huachu but failed, and was captured by the patrolling Qianyan Army. In order to save his family's reputation, Lord De'an asked his daughter Huachu to cut off contact with Jianqiu.

"But Hua Chu refused and insisted on contacting Jianqiu in prison. He even bribed Liyue's staff to get Jianqiu out of prison."

"In order to stop his daughter from having such thoughts, Lord De'an poisoned Jianqiu, which caused Huachu to commit suicide because she could not accept the reality. Finally, Lord De'an became insane and hanged himself."

Kong, who was standing by, felt embarrassed after hearing Shao Yunrang rewrite his fate, and said, "It feels so ridiculous, but... I'll listen to you."

Shao Yun glanced at his brother-in-law and replied, "Believe me, reality is much more ridiculous than what I imagined!"
