Returning to the Plains, Xiao stood there with his right hand on his forehead, and corpses were scattered all around him.

He stood there in a trance, and a figure seemed to appear in front of him, as if it was another him.

Xiao moved slowly towards the Wangshu Inn, but suddenly fainted halfway through.

Just as Xiao was about to fall to the ground, a green figure suddenly appeared and supported him.

"You've really gotten yourself into this state again, and the old man doesn't care about it."

Wendy looked quite helpless as he supported Xiao, but he also knew Xiao's situation. This was caused by the continuous fighting with the remnants of the demon god for thousands of years, and the continuous accumulation of karma.

It is actually very simple to get rid of this situation. Just stop fighting with the remnants of the demon and rest for a while.

But this is impossible. Without Xiao to eliminate the remnants of the demon god, the people of Liyue would not be able to live and work in peace.

With such heavy karma, and the fact that he is a member of the Yaksha clan, I guess he must be the legendary guardian Yaksha Xiao of Liyue, right?

Holding the wine that Wendy had just thrown over, Heng looked at Xiao who was leaning on Wendy's back.

"There's really no other way. Let's go to Wangshu Inn first." Wendy said to Yan, holding Xiao's hand which was emitting a green light.

As Venti transferred his power into Xiao's body, Xiao's originally painful expression relaxed a lot.

After a moment's thought, he said, "How about letting me try? Maybe I can alleviate his pain."

"Really? Then you give it a try." Wendy gently placed Xiao on the ground and stood aside. His braids were glowing slightly. If anything unexpected happened, he would be able to save the two of them in the first place.

Heng put the wine on the ground, walked to Xiao, squatted down, and put his hand on Xiao.

Ying silently called upon the strength in his body and began to use his power. Gradually, a silver-white light appeared on his body.

Wendy watched this scene from the side, her eyes flickering, and no one knew what she was thinking.

Soon, Yan took his hand back, exhaled and said, "Okay, if nothing unexpected happens, he should wake up soon."

Xiao woke up from his coma and looked at the familiar ceiling. "Is this... Wangshu Inn?"

Xiao sat up and felt his physical condition was more comfortable than ever before. He felt it and found that the karma in his body had almost disappeared.

"Are you awake? Would you like a drink? This is the best dandelion wine."

When Wendy saw Xiao wake up, she handed him the wine.

"No, Lord Barbatos, thank you for saving my life again. But Xiao has something important to attend to, so I won't accompany you any longer."

Xiao was about to leave after saying this, but Wendy pulled him to sit on the stool.

"Don't be in such a hurry to leave. You should take a rest once in a while. Besides, I wasn't the one who saved you."

Xiao was surprised when he heard this, "If it's not you, then could it be the Emperor?"

"Let me introduce you. The person next to me is Yan. He saved you just now." Wendy said, pointing at Yan who was sitting there drinking tea.

Xiao turned his head and saw a young man sitting there with a cup of tea in his hand.

Was it this doll that saved me? Xiao was suspicious. You know, even Morax and Barbatos couldn't remove the karma in his body. They could only suppress it at best. However, since Lord Barbatos said so, it should be correct.

May the wind god fool you, hehe.

"Thank you for saving me. If you need anything, just call my name and I will come and help you with all my strength!"

"Don't be so polite. It's just a small favor." Heng put down the teacup and signaled Xiao not to be so polite.

"Hey, people are thanking you, why are you making such a face? Smile."

As she spoke, Wendy walked up to Yan and stretched out her hand to pinch Yan's face.

So soft, so nice to touch. Thinking of this, Wendy couldn't help but gently pinch it again, feeling the delicate skin and the elastic touch, and an indescribable pleasure surged in her heart.

Yan's expression became very ugly, and tiny lightning emanated from his body. Seeing this, Wendy stopped what she was doing and quickly dodged.

A bolt of lightning struck where Wendy had just been standing, punching through the floor.

He waved his hand to restore the floor to its original state and glared at Wendy.

Wendy patted his chest, looking like he had survived a disaster. "It was a close call. I almost got hit."

Here, Wendy reminds everyone that petting cats is risky and needs to be done with caution.

Xiao looked at the two of them and thought that they had a really good relationship.

Well, it’s a life-long friendship.

Just as he raised his hand and was about to make another move, a voice came from outside.

"I'm really sorry for not welcoming you to visit me, an old friend!" A figure in luxurious clothes appeared in front of them.

"Hey, old man, you're here? Long time no see. I brought some good aged wine. Would you like to try it?" Wendy waved her hand and greeted Zhongli with a smile.

"It's true that we haven't seen each other for a long time, but please don't have any drinks. I have important things to do. I just took some time to come and see you." Zhongli politely declined Wendy's invitation.

"It seems that the karma in your body has disappeared?" Zhongli looked at Xiao.

Emperor" Xiao stood up and bowed respectfully to Zhongli. Zhongli just nodded slightly to show his response. Then, Zhongli turned his gaze to the one who had stood up and said, "My friend, I guess you saved Xiao, right?"

Hearing Zhongli's question, Yan replied: "Your Majesty, you are too kind. I just happened to pass by and helped out. It's really not a big contribution." The tone of his voice was very humble, which made people feel particularly comfortable.

Wendy stared at him with wide eyes. Is this really him? Why was he not so respectful when speaking to him? They are both gods, so why is there such a big difference?

"You don't have to be so polite, just call me Zhongli. As a token of my gratitude, I will cover all your expenses in Liyue Harbor." Zhongli handed a golden card to Yan with a smile on his face.

"Mr. Zhongli, do you know where I can find a good knife?" asked Ying after taking the card.

Zhongli frowned slightly, and after thinking for a moment, a knife flashing with purple light suddenly appeared in his hand.

"This sword is called Autumn Leaf, and it was left by an old friend of mine. Since you are in need of a good sword, I will give it to you." Zhongli said softly.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhongli!" There was a hint of surprise in Yan's eyes as he thanked Zhongli.

"I'm glad you like it. However, I still have some things to take care of, so I won't disturb you anymore. I wish you have fun in Liyue Harbor." Zhongli smiled and nodded, then turned around and slowly left Wangshu Inn.

"The old man is still so decisive and efficient." Wendy joked after Zhongli left.

"At least he's more reliable than that god who only knows how to slack off." Yu put away the knife.

"Indeed!" Wendy nodded in agreement.
