In Genshin Impact: I accidentally ruined the Seven Gods

Chapter 266 Shiraki's Gift of the Sea Lantern to Xiao

"This is for you."

After Ayato and the other two left, Shiraki handed a ball of milky white light to Kage.

"This is?"

"Those beliefs that you severed?"

Reaching out to touch the ball of light, Ying's puzzled gaze cleared considerably.

The faith within the sphere of light flowed into her body, which greatly improved her complexion.

“I plan to use the Thor statue on Sea Island as the ‘true’ statue. Since your Thor is a twin, your statue is very compatible with her.”

Upon hearing this, Ying understood why Shiraki had inexplicably severed his connection with the statue.

Although Shiraki did not inform her of this action beforehand, causing her some harm, this harm was insignificant compared to Shiraki's purpose.

After a moment of silence, Ying tentatively asked:

"Could you sever my connection with the statue as well, and leave me with only the one in Heguan?"

In fact, if it weren't for the need to stabilize the divine position, Ying wouldn't even want the statue of Crane Temple, and would want to give all the statues to "True".

However, Shiraki's actions might have unpredictable consequences, so she decided to be more conservative and keep a statue for herself.

"what?"

"If I really did that, your sister would hate me to death after she comes back to life."

Shiraki shook his head vigorously.

While Shadow's idea would be very beneficial for a true resurrection, if it were actually implemented, she would inevitably suffer a great loss of energy.

"She won't hate you. I'll put in a good word for you when the time comes."

"You can pull him down."

Shiraki waved his hand, deciding not to discuss this topic with Kage any further.

"Just relax and have fun here for the next couple of days. Once I've finished dealing with my business, I'll help you revive your sister."

"As for the idol, don't even think about cutting it off yourself."

"After all, you don't want your sister to be driven to death by your actions again after she's resurrected, do you?"

......

With only two days left until the Lantern Festival, Liyue Harbor is bustling with unprecedented activity.

Even so, the area in front of the Hall of Rebirth was still desolate.

Even if someone is curious about this place, they will only take a quick look from afar and are unwilling to stay here any longer.

"Yo ho."

"It's rare that the head of the hall didn't go out to do business today. Is it because business has been slow lately?"

Seeing Hu Tao squatting in front of the Rebirth Hall counting ants on the ground, Bai Mu walked to her side and said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Hu Tao raised her head and replied in a half-dead tone:

"Hi."

"Don't mention it."

"Isn't the Lantern Festival coming up soon? If I go out to find business at this time, wouldn't I just be making things difficult for myself and others?"

"is it?"

How do you know this is causing trouble for others?

Shiraki looked curiously at the walnut squatting on the ground, feeling that it seemed to have some kind of story.

As expected, after Bai Mu voiced his doubts, Hu Tao said indignantly:

"A couple of days ago, I was trying to find business opportunities, and I was kicked out by someone."

"They also said, 'The Lantern Festival is almost here, can you please stop causing us trouble?'"

Hu Tao narrowed her eyes slightly, and with a high-pitched voice and a vivid, yin-yang expression, repeated what someone had told her a couple of days ago.

"Haha."

"Why don't you take a break these two days? After all, you still have two gluttons to feed, don't you?"

After hearing about Hu Tao's experiences over the past two days, Shiraki kept offering words of comfort, but his smile never faded.

"Ah~"

"You're here to see Zhongli, right? He's in the courtyard. Go in by yourself."

Seeing the smile that wouldn't fade from Shiraki's face, Hu Tao sighed.

She lowered her head again and continued watching the ants moving their nest at her feet.

...

Upon arriving at the courtyard where Zhongli was, Baimu discovered that only Zhongli and Guizhong were there; Ruotuo Dragon King was not with them.

After questioning Bai Mu, he learned that Ruo Tuo Dragon King had recently gotten together with the demon boy who had been rescued from the Abyss of Layered Rocks.

They all have easygoing personalities and get along quite well.

Sure enough, the Dragon King Ruoduo has been spending all his time with Araki Ichito these past two days, and they've almost reached the point where they want to become sworn brothers.

Sitting opposite Zhongli, Guizhong had already brewed tea for the two of them.

After taking a sip of tea, Shiraki spoke:

"I resurrected those four Yakshas."

"What?!" *2

Even Zhongli was surprised and stood up after hearing what Bai Mu said.

As for Gui Zhong, her mouth was agape, wide enough to fit a Sunset Fruit.

"Call Xiao over here, this is my Lantern Festival gift for him."

Upon hearing this, Zhongli glanced at Bai Mu with a complicated expression.

He closed his eyes slightly, then opened them again.

"I've already called him."

"I thank you on behalf of that child."

"I also thank you on behalf of that child."

Although Guizhong is not much older than Xiao, since Zhongli treated Xiao as his own child, Guizhong should naturally be treated as his own child as well.

"No, it's just a small favor."

Bai Mu waved his hand.

After all, he had only condensed the consciousness of these few Yakshas, ​​and for now they could only exist by relying on the sacred relic. For Bai Mu, this was indeed a piece of cake.

As the three chatted, a beam of blue light quietly entered the courtyard.

"You're looking for me?"

Upon hearing this, the three of them turned to look at each other.

Feeling uncomfortable under the gazes of the three pairs of people who looked at him as a junior, Xiao suddenly felt a little awkward all over.

Zhongli and Guizhong both turned their gazes to Baimu, and they did not allow Xiao to take a seat.

Because they knew that even if they gave the order, Xiao would not sit down.

"Xiao, I've prepared a Lantern Festival gift for you."

Shiraki looked at Xiao, who was suspended in mid-air with his feet about twenty centimeters off the ground, with a smile on his face.

Upon hearing this, Xiao initially intended to refuse outright, but when Bai Mu took out the "Cinnabar Rebirth Record," Xiao's aura suddenly became uncontrollably disordered.

Zhongli raised his hand and casually severed the connection between the courtyard and the outside world, preventing Xiao's aura from affecting the outside world.

"We've finally emerged from Chenge Cave. I thought that senior had forgotten about us."

"It's only been a few days, Yingda, and you don't even have this much patience?"

"Why does this guy look so familiar?"

"Jinpeng! It's Jinpeng!"

"Is he Jinpeng?"

"It's been so long since I've seen Jinpeng. It's so good to see you again."

"Jinpeng? How long has it been? How come you've grown so tall?"

"Wait a minute! You're floating!"

Hearing these familiar voices, Xiao's lips unconsciously curled up, but his eyes were unknowingly soaked with water.
