Genshin Impact: Emperor

"Shh-"

Zhongli put his finger on his lips, Teresa puffed up her mouth in dissatisfaction, but remained obediently silent.

Seeing him put Yae Sakura on the bed, Teresa found the witch who seemed to be sleeping soundly. She couldn't help but feel very embarrassed. It turned out that something happened to Miss Sakura.

???0 ask for flowers..

Theresa will forgive you this time, hum.

A few days later, early in the morning.

Inside the shrine, Yae Sakura is doing daily prayers.

"Five more children died of starvation yesterday. What's their name?"

She pursed her lips with a perplexed look, especially when she remembered what happened yesterday.

"A dozen people were killed by the bear demon yesterday, and last week... twenty died. The weather has been dry recently, and the grain in the fields has not been harvested for a long time..."

A trace of pain flashed in Yae Sakura's eyes.

Is it really necessary to do that?

——"Are you praying for this village? This village is really unfortunate. The way to protect the village is actually very simple. Didn't you know it a long time ago? Just offer sacrifices as before."

who?Who is it again! ?

Yae Sakura covered her swollen head, and the darkness quietly spread and encroached on her heart.

"Master Miko, there is no time, please make a decision as soon as possible."

The villagers knocked on the door and spoke coldly to Yae Sakura in the prayer room.

"understood."

The villagers outside the door smiled strangely and disappeared suddenly.

The front yard of the shrine.

Zhong Li looked at the huge Yushen tree in front of him, feeling a little helpless in his heart. In the past few days, of course, he noticed that Yae Sakura was a little unnatural, and seemed to be hiding something, but even if he asked her, he kept silent, and there was nothing he could do for a while.

As the breeze blew past, the wind chimes on the imperial tree rang crisply, and suddenly a vague figure of a girl appeared in front of Zhongli.

He was slightly surprised, and saw the little girl approaching him and said:

"Big brother, can you save my sister? There has always been a dark force eroding my sister, she is about to be completely submerged by the darkness in her heart, and now I can barely get out

Now here, only your power can save her.

Jian Mei frowned slightly, Zhong Li looked at the little girl with cherry hair and double ponytails in front of him, and contacted what he heard in the reception room before contacting him, so he had some guesses.

"You are Yae-san's younger sister, Rin, aren't you?"

"Yes, big brother. I will come at night, please wait for me here..."

As if restricted by something, the girl's figure gradually became transparent, and soon disappeared into the courtyard.

Zhongli wanted to maintain the girl's existence, but found that he could not do this kind of behavior in this space. He thought in his heart that it was nothing more than the Corrosionist interfering with his behavior, and suddenly felt helpless.At.

No.80—The chapter is about to die

It was night, and the moon was as high as the day.

A little girl with pink hair and twin ponytails appeared from nothingness. She floated to Zhongli's room and put her hand on his forehead.

Immediately, a memory of Yae Sakura flashed in Zhongli's mind.

In a small village named Yae Village, the owner of the shrine has a pair of cute and clever twins. Unfortunately, the gods are not beautiful, and the world is difficult. The younger sister Rin has always been weak and sick, lying in bed all year round.

Even though her father no longer cares about Rin, her elder sister Sakura has been taking care of her.

In the midsummer of that year, due to the absence of any precipitation for a month, the fields in the village were dry and cracked, and the harvest of crops dropped sharply. The villagers died one after another under the scorching heat and hunger.

He decided to sacrifice his little daughters to the gods one by one.

Knowing all this, Sakura wants to take her sister away and flee the village with her. Even if there are only two of them, as long as they have each other, they can live happily ever after.

But when she saw Rin again, her hamstring had been broken, and she knelt down on the altar. Sakura, unable to resist fate, finally, under the coercion of the God Lord, buried her sister herself.

It turns out that this is the memory of Yae Sakura, and the nightmare that has been lingering in her heart for a long time is probably her sister.

"Rin, I will save your sister.

Zhong Li opened his eyes, looked at the pink-haired girl who was kneeling beside him and put her hand on his forehead, somewhat similar to Yae Sakura, and nodded in agreement.Yae Rin smiled brightly, and his figure instantly turned into nothingness.

Floating, seems to go to the tombstone in the east.

A ripple appeared in the space, then collapsed.

"Please, Mr. Zhongli..."

East of Yae Village, altar.

At this time, Teresa, who had her tendon broken, was kneeling on the altar, her hands were tied together with Shimenawa rope, and several bonfires were flickering around the altar, illuminating the sky on the top of the mountain. black

"It's finally here! As long as this ceremony is completed and the last wave of faith in her heart is destroyed, Yae Sakura's soul will completely belong to me!"

"Bah! You won't have a chance to succeed with the broken will, the captain will definitely come to save me!"

Teresa spat angrily on the face of the villager in front of her, angrily refuting her wishful thinking.

If it weren't for the fact that she had no strength to resist in her sleep, and was suddenly knocked out and taken away before she could make a move, how could she be in such a mess like she is now.

"Oh, stupid little girl, I have fought openly and secretly with him so many times, and I already know it well. I have already set up an illusion, and this is my home field! By the time he arrives, you may have been sacrificed as a sacrifice Already!"

Corrosion Herrscher wiped her face, but she didn't feel annoyed, just smiled triumphantly, she opened her arms to embrace the night sky where the bonfire was crackling, then folded her hands on her chest, and bent down to mock Theresa.

"Poor man, you shouldn't have come here. Do you know that if your spirit dies here, your body in the real world will also die together, haha! If you want to blame, just I can blame the general, he gave me such a good chance to make a move. Yae Sakura, go up and give her a ride!"

Yae Sakura standing under the steps pulled out the spirit knife from its sheath at the moment.

There was a flat and shaken expression on her soft face, she walked forward slowly, looking at the girl in front of her who had been with her for less than three days, her mind was uncertain.

Although she was the one who brought Teresa's broken hamstring here, she still couldn't make up her mind at this point.

But, but... When the villagers killed Rin, did they think about this?

These damned villagers!

Stupid, ignorant, terrible!

Yae Sakura didn't know how she got here in the past few years.

She has long lost hope.

Do not have any hope for life.

"Anything is fine."

Yae Sakura thought so.

But, but...

The vacant and dirty part of her heart was filled by someone.

She suddenly had some hope of life again.

She didn't want to die.

If Teresa is killed...

She was afraid that Zhongli would break up with her, and they would never see each other again.

She was ashamed of him, and she took his woman as a sacrifice without discussing it with him.Doesn't this seem to be a bit of revenge.

Are you such a person?

But, but...it would be best if he had only himself by his side...

As expected, get rid of the woman who got in the way.

It's better to occupy him and find an excuse to erase Teresa's existence... 0

Knife up and down.

It's easy...

The so-called killing means to have the awareness of being killed, even if you are killed by Mr. Zhongli in the future, you can have a good experience, and you will have no regrets.

The so-called sense of happiness is that tiny ray of light found in the faint darkness.

"It seems that I still need to help you."

OQ

In front of Yae Sakura who was gradually losing its light, the figure of "Rin" suddenly appeared, and the extremely thick black air lingered around Yae Sakura.

"Sister, do you still remember the wish you made? I always hoped that you would become an outstanding and powerful witch! Work hard for the gods, sacrifice your life for the gods, please do it quickly, sister, you did it right!"

"Yae Sakura! Don't listen to her nonsense! She is not your sister! How can a sister order someone to kill someone! Wake up!"

"It's useless, she can't hear you anymore?"

"Rin" covered her mouth and smiled, looking provocatively at Teresa who was struggling fiercely on the altar.

Looking at the smiling younger sister who suddenly appeared in front of her eyes, Yae Sakura silently recited "My sister is right", her cloudy blue pupils have lost their brilliance.

She raised the spirit knife in her hand.

She stabs Theresa in the heart.

- A knife flashed.

The cold moon splashed on the knife.

— Footsteps came.

Yae Sakura's chaotic consciousness that was about to be lost suddenly woke up.

2.4 His figure suddenly appeared in front of her eyes.

He was holding her cheeks in his familiar warm palms, and the warmth in his hands was transmitted clearly to her heart, making the chaotic darkness in her pupils disappear without a trace.

Yae Sakura looked at Zhongli in front of her, the stagnation in her hand made her suddenly understand what she did again.

She lowered her head and saw the spirit knife piercing Zhongli's lower abdomen, she trembled and let go, with tears all over her face:

"I'm sorry...I'm sorry! Mr. Zhongli, I don't want to do this! I shouldn't keep doing this! I hurt you one after another, what right do I have to be with you! Zhongli pulled out the spiritual knife in his lower abdomen and smiled casually.
