Genshin Impact: Report to the Emperor! Xiao Shen is creating people again

What Ganyu dropped was a collector's edition book. There were no creases on the corners of the pages, and it could be seen that it was quite old. The cover of the book was still brand new.

It was a painting style with delicate and neat lines and a strong collision of colors. Looking around, the center was a handsome and proud boy who was about 60% similar to Shen Qianluo himself, and under the boy...

It can't be considered as being above him, as he was held up by a tall and gentle figure. When he turned around and smiled brightly at the camera, the creature that looked like the emperor below was staring at him affectionately.

Shen Qianluo: ...

He was showing signs of getting angry again.

The kid took a quick look at the beginning with a strange mood. In fact, it was still within the range that Shen Qianluo could accept. It was probably that Xiao Shen was bullying people everywhere every day, and was chased by the immortals and shouted to report to the emperor. Xiao Shen was creating people again~

But follow up...follow up...

Just as the boy unexpectedly turned to an illustration on a certain page in the middle or later part of the book, his hair stood up straight, his eyes widened and his face flushed red. The girl rushed to the girl in panic and slammed the whole book shut.

"Sorry! This book doesn't count!!"

But it was too late. This incident had a great impact on the child's outlook on life and values. Shen Qianluo had a dazed expression, his body was gray and his face was confused. It seemed that he had suddenly lost faith in life. The next second, he suddenly covered his burning cheeks and fled away in a hurry.

"I, I need to calm down!!"

"Brother Qianluo!" Ganyu, with a blushing face, put the book into her arms at a loss. She wanted to throw it away out of shame, but she couldn't help her love for her beloved book. After thinking about it, she quickly stuffed it into the grass by the roadside and rushed after Shen Qianluo.

Mu Sheng on the roadside: ...?

What are these two young people, one big and one small, doing?

Zhongli was waiting at home for Shen Qianluo to come back.

He even stayed at home for a while, but he always felt it was too lonely, without the lively voices of children in his ears. Although he had endured two thousand years alone, just a few days after Shen Qianluo came back to his side, he became unbearable to be lonely, and missed every little bit of him being by his side.

So he went to the kitchen and cooked himself, then sat at the table and made tea in silence. The disfavored Xieluohu squatting beside him glanced at him, snorted, and ate today's meal with disdain.

The next second, a faint and quiet sound of footsteps sounded in the courtyard. Zhongli raised his eyes and saw the boy with his head slightly lowered appear in his sight. "Are you having fun?"

"Not bad." Shen Qianluo raised his head and glanced at him, and suddenly met the man's gaze. He coughed and suddenly looked away guiltily. His peripheral vision in the corner seemed to have discovered something gratifying, and he ran to Xieluohu and stuffed the eating little fox into his arms.

"It's been a while since I stroked your fur. If I remember correctly, your name is Xiao Xie? Don't worry, I still like you very much."

Xie Luohu, who hadn't finished his meal yet and had meat residue on the corner of his mouth, watched the delicious food disappear from his mind: ???

And you are the little bastard!!

The fox struggled in dissatisfaction in the boy's arms, trying to run towards its delicious bowl of food again, but was forced to accept the boy's forced hair removal. The whole fox was depressed, and it jumped up and threw itself into the arms of Zhongli who was walking towards it.

Shen Qianluo's eyelashes trembled. The man who noticed his strangeness had walked in front of him. He lowered his head, as if he was forced into a corner. In silence, the child's mind once again inevitably associated the unknown scene in a book.

Her pretty face turned red, and her ahoge hair was running rampant on her head.

Just now, after Ganyu caught up with him, she explained that the book was not a so-called history book, but an indescribable thing fabricated by an author named Qingxuyu (? ).

And it was forced upon her by one of her colleagues! It absolutely never happened!

…perhaps?

After all, he calmed down a little. Shen Qianluo, trying hard to hold back his blushing, threw himself eagerly into the arms of history books. He and Ganyu nervously reviewed the past together, and finally felt a little relieved.

No, no, they definitely don’t have that kind of relationship…

That book is nothing but the random creation of the people...

But why would anyone have such an idea?

If Zhongli asks him later what he talked about with Ganyu, he should... not reveal anything, right?

"Are you hungry? I made some food tonight." A warm palm covered his head. Shen Qianluo raised his eyes suddenly and met the man's golden eyes in the dim light. "You came back at the right time. Eat it while it's hot."

Then, seeing that Zhongli did not ask anything, he put the Xieluohu back in front of his meal, brought the warm meal to the table, and looked back, waiting for himself who was in a daze.

“…I’m here. Sir is very gentle today.” Shen Qianluo came back to his senses and quickly washed his paws and sat down at the table. His slightly stiff face finally showed a natural expression, and his clear eyes looked up and down at the Rock King in front of him.

"What's wrong?" Zhongli noticed his gaze.

"Today I asked Ganyu for some history books and read about our past." The boy smiled, a genuine smile that he only showed to the person in front of him. "Thank you for your hard work, Lord Emperor. I will be here for you in the future."

He thought that he had finally figured out the relationship between himself and Zhongli.

He loves the country they founded with their own hands, loves the leader, Geo Emperor, and loves his best friend and partner, Mr. Zhongli, the dragon who has many beliefs.

...Xieluohu, who was eating happily before the big meal, suddenly found that the meal didn’t taste good anymore.

Shen Qianluo returned to the house and decided to eat the large amount of faith he had collected in recent days.

As he devoured faith time and time again, his hunger would always be alleviated a little, and as faith accumulated, his long-dormant divine power and memory would also be restored little by little.

Including young bodies.

When he closed his eyes and swallowed big mouthfuls of faith, Shen Qianluo always felt a kind of dizziness and loss similar to disorder, as if his body was always full, missing, and wandering in fragments.

But faith is always so sweet and wonderful. Even though every bite of faith will cause a moment of discomfort, he ignores it and includes it in his plan. He can just endure it and it will be over.

Until he gasped and came back to his senses after a long night of confusion.

The faint light of dawn generously scatters across the earth, and it is rumored that the annual grand ceremony of inviting the immortals will also be held today.

A feeling of warmth flowed through his body, and the boy's handsome golden pupils were slightly dazed. He did not show any emotion because of his body's brief recovery, but suddenly he found himself slowly turning his head to look in the mirror. His eyes were calm and warm, and he was staring deeply at the him in the mirror.

The corner of his mouth curled up in a faint smile.
