Genshin Impact: Starting Guide - End of the World Qi Bao

Juexi didn't speak, but a hint of surprise flashed in Beidou's eyes, which disappeared in an instant. She spoke to Kiana.

"Oh, Miss Kiana, you're overthinking it. My 'Death Star' is extremely safe at sea and has never had any accidents. If you don't believe me, ask that young friend Manyo. He escaped from the hands of General Inazuma, the Thunder General, and he's still safe and sound on my ship. I can even pass through those powerful thunderstorms."

Kiana found Beidou's words increasingly absurd. This was a flag being raised so high; it seemed like something terrible was about to happen.

Wendy, however, complained.

"Young friend Wanye? He doesn't seem that young. Why do you call him that?"

"Hey, Wendy, that's what you don't understand. He can't drink, he's just a kid. Let's keep drinking, keep going..."

Before he could even utter the word "drink," the ship began to rock violently, the surrounding waves became turbulent, and the once calm sea surface began to tremble violently. Beidou clicked his tongue in exasperation.

"They arrived so quickly..."

Kiana lightly patted her forehead... Sure enough, something bad had happened. She thought to herself that her captain was such an unlucky guy, always getting into trouble. If he were a native of Teyvat, he would have died countless times.

Jue Xi pretended not to understand Bei Dou's language, but Wendy really didn't understand.

Beidou looked embarrassed, but after thinking it over, he still spoke seriously.

"Brother Juexi, please excuse me. There's been some trouble on the ship, probably caused by a common 'sea monster.' I need to deal with it. I'll come back to drink with you two after I'm done."

Just as Beidou was about to depart, Juexi called it a halt.

“Beidou, I always thought you were a very frank person. What? Couldn’t you tell if it’s just an ordinary ‘sea monster’? There are so many people on the ship, I don’t want to say anything more. Ningguang taught you this before, right? That line you just gave me.”

"Yes, oh no."

Beidou spoke with a "what's the use" attitude.

"Alright, I was just worried you wouldn't make a move. I've heard Ningguang say how powerful you are, but I haven't seen it for myself yet. I wonder if you can handle the aftereffects of the 'vortex'."

Jue Xi said.

"You dared to bring me to this central area, far from Liyue Harbor, so you obviously don't believe I can handle this Bazhe. But I didn't expect you to be willing to board this ship with so many people if you don't believe me."

Beidou also said with a smile.

"I still believe in your abilities, Juexi. However, the location was chosen here to avoid affecting the people of Liyue Harbor."

"Alright, one last thing, are you so sure that this beast will be attracted to me?"

Beidou provided the answer.

“You killed her husband, Demon God Oser. She must hate you to the core, and she certainly won’t let this opportunity pass her by.”

Jue Xi waved her hand helplessly and said.

"Alright, then Beidou, you don't need to go out. I'll be right back. Qibao, please warm up the wine for me. It's a bit cold. I'll be back as soon as you've warmed it up."

Kiana was speechless; how could her captain be so boastful?

Seeing that Jue Xi was willing to help, Bei Dou happily patted Wendy on the shoulder and said.

"Alright, then I'll wait here for your good news, Juexi. But finishing this in the time it takes to warm the wine and come back is a bit too much..."

Jue Xi shook her head.

"That's fast! I'll give you an extra treat later, some braised pork."

Chapter 97 Sister Beidou

Jue Xi stepped out of the cabin and looked at the boats on the sea. Looking back, she realized that the Jade Pavilion hadn't even come this time. Ning Guang and the other immortals really believed in her...

Jue Xi summoned his divine key from the theater of domination, pointed the sword at Ba Che, and said.

"I don't know if you can understand human language, but I'm sorry, your husband killed you. To make it up to you, I'll send you to reunite with him."

Ba Che naturally understood Jue Xi's words and roared angrily at her. Ba Che then swung her huge tail, and a massive wave crashed onto the ship where Jue Xi was.

Looking at the giant wave in front of her, which was enough to overturn the 'Death Star', Jue Xi thought to herself, "It's a good thing I'm here, otherwise, without Shen He, many people in Liyue would have suffered."

Jue Xi cast an Ice Law buff on her Sword of Domination, fearing that this strike might have the same effect as Shen He's. Killing her would be easy, but she worried that the tsunami might affect others. She decided to finish this quickly; she needed to go back for drinks later.

"The Spirit of the Taixu Sword Technique"

The same white sword aura, devoid of elemental power or Honkai energy fluctuations, yet brimming with overwhelming killing intent… This time, the sword's edge faintly carried a chilling blue aura (the power of the Ice Law). The tsunami halted its advance some distance before the sword aura even touched it. Ice… began to spread wildly outwards from the tsunami's center. The instant the sword aura touched the tsunami, the hundred-foot-high wave shattered into dust.

Seeing this, Ba Che knew something terrible was about to happen, but her husband had already died by this sword, where could she escape to? A loud boom resounded, and then the sea returned to calm, with only a few scattered white dots gradually disappearing into the smoke and clouds.

Jue Xi stood at the bow of the boat and sighed.

"No, this didn't even get us any extra food. We can't use this move next time. It even wiped out the ashes. This swordsmanship is too amazing. I feel like this thing is even more useful than Honkai energy, System."

"Sigh, I'm tired of saying that. Everything produced by this system is guaranteed to be top-notch, so my transformation..."

"What a beautiful day! Time to go back and have a drink."

“*?*?*?*?*?*?*?*?”

Jue Xi returned to the cabin where everyone was drinking. Bei Dou, of course, knew about the commotion outside; she had just gone out to peek. Good heavens, that sword strike was not only incredibly powerful but also devoid of elemental energy. Calling him a god of this era wouldn't be an exaggeration; this kid's background is truly terrifying. However, this was just Bei Dou's thought. What bad intentions could the carefree Captain Bei Dou possibly have? After all, with Jue Xi's strength, he seemed to be able to ignore any schemes... Bei Dou went over and hugged Jue Xi, patting his shoulder as she spoke.

"Brother Juexi, you are truly amazing. That sword strike just now, the sound, and the power really opened my eyes."

Juexi glanced at Kiana, and sure enough... Kiana looked like she had drunk a very strong bitter melon juice, which scared him so much that he immediately moved away from Beidou and came to Kiana's side to say something.

"Haha, Captain Beidou, drink up, drink up! No need for flattery, we're all brothers..."

Beidou was also a shrewd person. He glanced at Kiana, understood the problem, and said with a smile.

"Brother Juexi, I should be older than you. Today, on behalf of all our crew members, I thank you. Without you, our crew would have suffered heavy casualties. If you don't mind, just call me Sister Beidou. Calling us Captain is too formal. Brother Juexi, Sister-in-law Kiana, I'll drink first as a sign of respect."

Beidou ignored Juexi and Qiyana, drank a large bowl of wine in one gulp, and continued speaking after finishing.

"Brother Juexi, thank you. Although you have helped me solve such a big problem, please forgive me for taking my leave now. I need to go out and comfort the crew and check on the situation."

Jue Xi quickly spoke up.

"Sister Beidou, you can go and do your thing."

Kiana wasn't really angry, just a little unhappy. After all, she was her captain, and she'd actually been quite pleased to hear her call him "sister-in-law." But looking at Hokuto... she was reminded of a teacher who loved to drink... and a wave of melancholy washed over her.

Chapter 98 Inazuma

Juexi also felt quite strange. What was wrong with her Qibao? Her mood was fluctuating wildly. Was she on her period? Juexi didn't understand, but she still hugged Qiana and asked softly.

"What's wrong? You're so jealous! Whose little vinegar jar has been overturned, Qibao?"

Kiana, after recovering from Juexi's embrace, also put on a smug face and said...

"Hmph, I'm not jealous."

The road turned back.

"Qibao, you have no idea what kind of face you had just made. Luckily, my Qibao isn't a yandere, she's just jealous, otherwise she would have killed me."

"I'm not jealous! Besides, even if I killed you, I wouldn't survive either. Ugh, you dead captain, you're so annoying. You reek of alcohol, go take a shower."

Jue Xi, however, continued shamelessly.

"Qibao says she's annoyed with me, but when I hug her, she's still so well-behaved, isn't she?"

Kiana struggled out of Juexi's arms after hearing his words, thinking to herself, "Captain, don't I have any pride? Why do you have to be so blunt?"

Meanwhile, Wendy sipped her drink, seemingly oblivious to the couple's daily antics, having grown accustomed to witnessing their affection every day.

Juexi and Kiana flirted and teased each other, Wendy drank her wine, and Qiqi played with Xiao Tuanque. Time flew by...

The next morning, Juexi smiled at Qibao in front of her and poked her cheek.

"Huh? Ugh~ Stop it, Captain, I'm sleepy..."

Juexi ignored Kiana's words and instead rubbed her face. Kiana immediately said something.

"No, you kept me up so late yesterday, Captain, feeding me."

Kiana tried to be cute, but this time the captain refused her.

"Qibao~ Wake up quickly, we're almost at Inazuma. Get up and have some food, then I'll show you around. Maybe we'll even run into someone we know."

Kiana yawned, and despite complaining, she came to the deck with Juexi, rubbed her eyes, and greeted him.

"Good morning, Sister Beidou."

Good morning, we'll be there soon.

A small island can be vaguely seen ahead.

Jue Xi spoke politely.

"Thank you, Sister Beidou. If there's anything I can do to help in the future, just let me know."

Beidou also said it in a very casual way.

"Don't worry, I won't be polite, Brother Juexi. Although I don't know what you're doing in Inazuma, it seems that with your skills, you won't be bullied, so I'm relieved. The gods of Inazuma pursue 'eternity,' and recently the Eye Hunting Order has suddenly intensified. I don't know why, so please be careful."

Juexi replied with a smile.

"Yes, yes, Sister Beidou."

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Juexi, Qibao, and the others set foot on the land of Daozaki.

Inawa

"Brother Juexi, sister-in-law, Wendy, Qiqi, farewell."

Beidou saw everyone off the ship, watched them leave, and slowly said goodbye. After saying goodbye to Beidou, the group wandered around for a while, and Juexi bought a lot of local specialties for Qibao to eat.

As Juexi walked, she pondered, "I don't understand why Beidou didn't introduce us to Thomas. It seems I need to be with Yingmei to trigger these main storylines... I wonder what Yingmei is up to. I've prepared a big gift for her when we meet again."

Kiana noticed the captain's strange expression and knew he wasn't up to any good, so she asked him.

"Captain, so we're just here for a vacation?"

Juexi patted Qibao's head.

"Don't be impatient, Qibao, we'll go find a scumbag fox in a bit."

Chapter 99 The Kamisato Family

Kiana asked, puzzled.

"Disgusting fox?"

The road turned back.

"Ahem, that's not important."
