Genshin Impact [Outsider]

"Master, didn't you lie to me? This is obviously very strange to humans..."

Lin Xi doesn't seem to like these features of hers, and perhaps this is the reason why she hides her face.

Su Li shook her head and replied: "I don't think this is strange, but rather a unique advantage. Catwoman is popular everywhere!"

If Lin Xi has the characteristics of a cat girl, then she most likely also has a tail. Although Su Li wants to get a glimpse of her true appearance, she can't just pull off someone's pants like a pervert.

"Advantages? But the people in my tribe say that I am a bad omen. Only people who are born with a curse will look like this."

Lin Xi had a very unpleasant past. In order not to be excluded, she trained hard and became a hunter, but this still could not change her fate.

"This is definitely not a bad sign. Who would be cursed to grow into such a cute cat girl?"

The soft and warm touch of the cat ears made Su Li a little overwhelmed, but thinking that Lin Xi might mind, she withdrew her uneasy little hands.

"My parents were sacrificed when I was a child because of the curse... After the elders of the tribe fell into eternal sleep, my former comrades planned to sacrifice me, so I escaped."

As Lin Qian spoke, her eyes suddenly turned red with tears.

This was probably the first time she completely vented her emotions in front of others. She just kept wiping her tears but they wouldn't stop.

Su Li was a little shocked and angry. It seemed that the tribe was not a good place, otherwise how could Lin Xi escape from that troubled place.

The tribes that escaped from the jurisdiction of Xingji also happened to escape the punishment of the Demon Shadow. The evil people are always lucky.

But luck will come to an end sooner or later, and what awaits them is definitely the judgment of justice.

"If you have nowhere to go, then come with me." Su Li sighed and continued:

"But I also said that it is not safe to follow me, and there are more terrifying enemies to face. I hope you can think carefully before making a decision."

Lin Xi nodded with sobs, her clever cat ears shaking. Perhaps Su Li liked cat girls because of these cute qualities.

Su Li added: "Don't force yourself. If you don't want to, after this meal, I will give you your freedom, and then we will go our separate ways. You and I will no longer owe each other anything."

Lin Qian shook her head and cried, "I want to follow Master. I don't want to go alone..."

Su Li smiled and said, "Then I'll be happy to teach you from now on. Should I call you Miss Lin Xi or Miss Catwoman?"

"Lin Xi, don't want Catwoman..."

So, in the end, he accepted Lin Xi, but Su Li understood that this relationship was only based on the fact that he could protect her.

When Su Li was powerless, it was also the time for the two to part ways...

When they returned to the temporary base, the hot pot had already been lit and was waiting for the two to return.

"Wow! It's so rich, I can't wait to have a bite!"

Su Li explained to Hotpot what happened during the trip, while Lin Qian focused on taking care of the little squirrel, then squatted by the fire and started grilling the meat.

"Hmm... I've never seen anyone with cat ears. Hey, little guy! Show me what you look like."

Hotpot shifted his gaze to Lin Xi's hood, and then imagined what it would look like with a pair of ears erected on her head.

"No!" Lin Xi rejected his request without even thinking about it.

"Hey, hey, don't be so stingy. You let that guy Su Li see it, so why can't you let me take a look?" Hotpot still asked unwillingly, leaning towards Lin Xi.

Lin Xi stepped back repeatedly, trying her best to avoid being touched by the hot pot.

"You look too fierce, so I refuse to show you!"

Hotpot was shocked and said disdainfully: "You stingy guy, if you don't want to show it to me, then don't show it to me. And you even slander others for looking fierce."

Lin Xi ignored him and handed the roasted squirrel meat to Su Li, saying, "Master Su Li, eat it while it's hot."

After the few people solved the problem of food and clothing, the fatigue from a sleepless night began to surge in their hearts.

"I'm going to take a short break. I'm so sleepy..." Hotpot leaned against the tree, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Su Li was also feeling a little tired, but the three of them couldn't rest at the same time, otherwise they wouldn't be able to respond immediately if any emergency occurred.

"Master, do you want to rest?" Lin Xi stomped out the gradually weakening fire, turned around and saw that Su Li had not rested yet.

"Aren't you sleepy?" Su Li really wanted to rest for a while, but it would be better to discuss with Lin Xi about taking turns to keep watch.

Although it is already early morning, it cannot be considered as vigil...

"I'm fine. I just woke up not long ago, so I'm not very sleepy. Master, if you are tired, just take a rest." Lin Xi explained with a smile.

Su Li yawned and found a tree to lean against.

"Then please keep watch. If you get tired, wake me up and take over."

Lin Qian nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, Master. When I feel sleepy, wake me up and play with me."

Lin Qian waited until Su Li fell asleep, then quietly came to the treetop and observed him quietly.

Strangers have now become my only support. This world is so strange.

Lin Xi waited for several hours. When she was bored, she wandered around. When she was tired, she sat cross-legged near Su Li and stared blankly.

She slowly closed her eyes, and scenes from her past experiences suddenly emerged in her mind, scaring her so much that she woke up immediately.

"No, I can't fall asleep..." Lin Xi patted her cheeks, trying to keep herself awake.

Those nightmares have been haunting her since she was a child, except for the time when she first became a hunter, when she thought everything in the past would be over.

Until the reality hurt her again, those nightmares came back again, and the unbearable memories could not dissipate for a long time.

"Master..." Lin Qian lowered her head silently, reached into her hood and grabbed her ears, unable to hold back her tears...

After Su Li took a short rest, she suddenly felt a chill all over her body. She shivered and her consciousness became a little clearer.

He slowly opened his eyes and quietly found Lin Xi squatting in front of him, twitching with her head in her hands, with a sad look on her face.

"What's wrong?" Su Li slowly stood up and squatted in front of Lin Xi.

Lin Qian shook her head, wiped away her tears, and said with a forced smile: "It's okay, Master, I just remembered some unhappy things."

Su Li sighed and said, "I'm glad you're okay. If you have any worries, maybe you'll feel better if you tell them."

Lin Qian nodded and pulled the brim of her hat down to block her vision.

"I'm sorry to have made Master worried..."

Hotpot also woke up at this time, stretched his waist and yawned, saying: "I slept so comfortably!"

Su Li observed the sky. Although the cumulus clouds were gloomy, she could roughly guess the time just by observing the faint light shining through.

"It shouldn't be afternoon yet, let's go towards the coast."

"Well, Lin Xi will show the way to Master!" She quickly adjusted her mood and put on a mischievous and optimistic look again.

At this moment, Hotpot's body suddenly froze, and then he quickly glanced around, his nerves tense.

"It seems like there's something around!"

When Su Li heard what Hotpot said, she quickly glanced around, not missing any grass or movement.

Lin Xi was a little puzzled. She clearly didn't feel anything, so why did Hotpot suddenly become alert?

Her keen sense was no less than anyone else's, but even so, she might still miss some subtle changes.

Su Li also sensed a familiar aura. Although it had only appeared once before, it left a deep impression on Su Li.

"This aura... is him!"

Su Li immediately assumed a fighting stance, with a flower blade appearing in his hand and a flower spear following behind him.

This flower spear is the weapon of the Flower Speaker. After being infiltrated and transformed by the Ring of Chaos, Su Li can now control it easily.

Hotpot also transformed into a fire knife, and looked around more cautiously and asked: "Who is he? Is he as strong as that woman?"

Su Li nodded and responded: "Compared to them, their strength should be about the same. If they really come, don't fight them head-on."

Lin Qian was completely confused by the sudden alertness of the two people, and asked in confusion: "Who is he? Who is that woman?"

"Lin Xi, hide first, danger is coming!"

Just as Su Li finished speaking, a powerful pressure suddenly descended from the sky nearby, and the air around them trembled three points instantly.

The sky was instantly replaced by nothingness, and the surroundings were enveloped by countless star shadows. Then a figure slowly appeared in the air, holding a broken blade in his hand.

"Shu Li, we meet again." The man smiled slightly, and the stars slowly fell with his shadow.

"It's you..." Su Li stared at the man coldly, his body trembling slightly instinctively. The man who appeared in front of him at this moment was the mysterious man who had previously hunted Luo Chen.

"Haha, after we met that night, I have always been curious about how long you can live. You really didn't let me down, my old friend."

The man landed gracefully, and a shadow instantly appeared on the ground to catch his body.

"We don't seem to be very familiar with each other." Su Li tightly grasped the flower blade and observed the man carefully. As long as he made the slightest movement, Su Li would immediately slash out the phantom blade.

"Star God [Onlookers], those who know my name will be considered my friends, and those who are irrelevant will be eliminated."

The spectator clenched the hilt of the sword in his hand, and cracks instantly appeared on the broken blade and spread throughout the entire weapon.

Su Li understood what he meant. Except for Su Li, he wanted to eliminate the remaining two people so that no third person would know his name.

"Lin Xi, find a chance to escape!" Su Li waved the flower blade, and his figure flashed out, heading straight for the spectators.

Lin Xi did not insist on staying. She could clearly feel the suffocating pressure. Even if she stayed, she would be a burden. At this moment, she could only listen to Su Li's words and escape from here.

And at the moment when Lin Xi's figure disappeared, the phantoms near the spectators instantly formed a barrier, completely isolating Su Li and the hot pot.

Hotpot was surrounded by red light, resisting the pressure from the spectators, and gritted his teeth and said, "We just finished a battle, why is there another one!"

The spectator retreated and distanced himself from Su Li the moment before he approached. He had no intention of fighting Su Li head-on, and Su Li was not qualified enough for him at the moment.

"You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. I won't kill you today, my old friend. As long as you accompany me to watch a show, I will let you go. How about it?"

As soon as he finished speaking, countless stars surrounded Su Li, and countless chains circled around him, trapping Su Li in a small area.

These chains were like phantoms. Su Li slashed at the chains but missed. However, when he touched the chains, he felt obvious obstruction.

"I like weaklings who act like they're strong, but I don't like cats that run around."

The spectator slowly snapped his fingers, and a ferocious shadow wolf appeared behind him, growling and staring at Su Li.

"Your goal is not these. Go and catch the escaped cat and try to keep it alive."

Shadow Wolf followed the spectator's orders and immediately chased in the direction Lin Xi fled.

Su Li was completely trapped within the chains. At the moment, he had no way to break the chains. Even if he used Hua Ren's Butterfly Flash ability, he couldn't get out.

"As long as I don't stop, you'll never be able to get out, so just enjoy it with me."

The spectator exerted force suddenly, and the broken blade in his hand shattered instantly. At the moment it turned into powder, two figures slowly condensed along with the broken blade.

"Let's see if your friend can defeat my Broken Puppet."

As the broken blade condensed again, the soil on the ground rose up and gradually condensed near the broken blade, slowly forming the shape of a human body.

Two broken puppets that were a head taller than ordinary people had condensed, the broken stones and blades had condensed, and each of them held a heavy stone blade in their hands.

The Broken Puppet's gaze fell directly on Hotpot, its murderous aura did not subside at all, and two different forces burst out at the moment of collision.

A powerful momentum surged out as the heavy blade was swung up, and the two broken puppets stepped towards the hot pot together, giving people a strong sense of oppression.

Although the two puppets are covered with cracks, they are actually stronger than steel, and their movement shakes the ground. They are monsters that can make people lose half of their confidence just by facing them.

"Just stone men, I'm going to smash them to pieces!" Hotpot shouted angrily, without any fear, and rushed straight towards the broken puppets.

The fire knife was surrounded by flames, and as it was swung, it drew a fierce shadow and slashed at the body of the broken puppet.

In addition, Lin Xi has completely escaped the range of the spectator seal, but she is not safe at the moment.

Just when she was considering whether to hide nearby and wait for Su Li to return, she sensed that terrifying aura was rapidly approaching her.

Without time to think, Lin Qian quickly restrained her breath, jumped to the treetops, and quickly shuttled through the woods to hide her figure.

The shadow wolf found itself nearby, and its deep and dreamy eyes were constantly searching for Lin Xi's figure.

Because of its naturally sensitive nose, it can quickly locate and lock onto the target and search quickly in a small area.

Listening to the wolf growling and looking around nearby, Lin Xi, who was hiding on a treetop, swallowed her saliva and did not dare to relax at all.

She even controlled her breathing to be extremely light, for fear that the noise would be too loud and the wolf would discover her location.

Sometimes things always go in a direction that is contrary to one's will...

As the wolf slowly approached, Lin Qian once again recalled her childhood...
