Nasida rested her hands on the table.

"She is Li Yue's daughter."

???

A string of question marks couldn't help but pop up above Zhong Li's head.

Upon first meeting Naxida, Zhongli recognized her as the current Grass Goddess.

However, he now knows why the Grass God wasn't in Sumeru, but instead was with Li Yue. But this answer turned him into a subway senior citizen's mobile phone.

What the hell?

From Naxida's self-introduction, it can be seen that she, like himself, chose to hide her identity. As for why she hid her identity, he had not been to Xumi for the past 500 years, so he did not know. Anyway, gods have their own ideas. But what's the deal with her directly becoming Li Yue's daughter?

"Li Yue's daughter?"

Zhongli tried to confirm this identity again.

"Yes, Li Yue said I was an orphan, so she decided to adopt me."

Naxida used the words Li Yue had used when she adopted her to tell Zhongli that she was very excited. She had met the oldest and most experienced ruler among the Seven Gods, the Rock King Emperor! Moreover, Li Yue said that he and the Rock King Emperor were good friends and even lived together, practically family. This was truly astonishing to the gods that Li Yue had such a relationship with the Rock King Emperor!

With such an ancient deity by my side, I'm sure I can learn a wealth of experience in being a god! And then become a qualified god myself!

Naxida looked at Zhongli with great anticipation, but Zhongli fell silent after hearing Naxida's words.

He couldn't help but turn his head again to look at Li Yue, who was installing solar panels outside. No, how did she do that?

He remembered Li Yue saying that he had gone to Mondstadt, but why was there an extra Grass God from Sumeru when he came back after going to Mondstadt? Could it be that the Grass God from Sumeru was on vacation in Mondstadt?

"Li Yue contacted me without knowing me."

Seemingly sensing that Zhongli didn't quite understand, Nasida kindly explained again.

"Yes, me too."

Zhongli understood Naxida's meaning and returned the same reply to her.

"So, you'll be living with Li Yue from now on, right?"

"Yes, I want to follow Li Yue and learn how to become a qualified Grass God."

Ok?

Zhongli looked at Naxida with suspicion. "Are you sure you can learn how to become a grass god by following Li Yue? Does he look like someone with a lot of experience as a grass god?"

"The specific situation is..."

"Alright! All done!"

Just as Nasida was about to explain, Li Yue walked in from outside, pulling on an electrical wire.

"Naxida, how did your chat with Zhongli go? Don't let his old-fashioned and serious appearance fool you, he's very easy to talk to, so don't be afraid, just ask him anything."

"Yes, I had a very pleasant chat with Mr. Zhongli."

Li Yue was very satisfied with Naxi Da's answer.

“Zhongli, you too. Naxida is a good child and loves to study. You happen to be very knowledgeable and like to chat. You can chat with her when you have free time. She will definitely be a very loyal listener.”

"Yes, I can see that too. Nasita is very smart, and we get along very well. If she's willing, I'd love to talk to her about topics that interest her."

Naxida's eyes lit up after hearing this.

"That's great!"

Although she encountered the Wind God in Mondstadt, during the time she spent with him, it seemed he was always drinking, either drinking or on his way to drink. The same was true in the world of Saekano: How to Raise a Boring Girlfriend. While the Wind God didn't seem to display any particular abilities, he displayed an astonishing talent for communication. Narcida watched as he quickly became friends with Li Yue with just a few words, and then with the bar owner of the other world—his success rate was extremely high! This left Narcida momentarily speechless, unsure how to evaluate this senior Wind God.

Now that she has encountered the Rock God, the oldest and longest-reigning deity, she will surely be able to learn a wealth of governing experience. She can learn the Great Tree King's combat experience from Li Yue, and then learn governing experience from the Rock God. In this way, she can grow into a qualified Grass God under the watchful eye of the Great Tree King!

Seeing Naxida's happy expression, Zhongli smiled and nodded, then got up and went to Li Yue's side.

"Young friend Li Yue, there are some things I'd like to discuss with you privately."

"Let's go outside and talk."

Li Yue understood Zhong Li's meaning, gave Naxida some instructions, and then followed Zhong Li to the outer courtyard.

Zhong Li looked at the solar panels that Li Yue had installed on the roof tiles, and while wondering about it, he also asked Li Yue in a low voice.

"Young friend Li Yue, Naxida just said that she is an orphan you adopted. What's going on?"

"She told you that this child is much more mature than other children."

Li Yue looked on with a sigh.

“Zhongli, you should know that I awakened a special power, right? I have mastered that power in depth. When I was in Mondstadt, I discovered that my sword could cut through space and create a portal to another place. On my first attempt, I opened a portal and went to a cell of an evil organization, where I found Narcida being imprisoned.”

“I felt very sorry for her, so I rescued her.”

"I see."

Zhongli nodded. From Li Yue's words, he gleaned some information and roughly understood that the Grass God had been imprisoned by the Sumeru people, and that Li Yue had rescued the Grass God without knowing his identity. However, Zhongli also had a new question: why would Naxida choose to be Li Yue's daughter? Li Yue didn't look like Naxida's father at that age. He couldn't possibly be a father at the age of ten.

Li Yue's next words successfully answered Zhong Li's doubts.

"Shortly after that, during my second attempt at the ability, I ended up in a special place. There was a big tree there, and inside the tree was a woman. I recognized the woman at a glance as Nasita's mother because she looked so much like Nasita."

The World Tree? The Great Compassion Tree King?

Zhong Li looked slightly surprised; he hadn't expected Li Yue to be able to reach the World Tree.

"It turns out I was right. The woman's name was Ah Ci, and she was indeed Nasita's mother. As for why she was in that tree, after careful analysis, I deduced that she, like Nasita, was imprisoned and experimented on by the evil organization of Sumeru. She became a victim of the experiment at a young age, leaving behind the poor child Nasita."

"Are you sure she's also being held captive by the evil organization?"

Zhongli couldn't understand how Li Yue made that deduction; that was the Great Compassion Tree King!

"That's right, I'm sure of it. I found a curse on her, and it was clearly not a good thing. So I used another power that my knife carries to peel the curse off her and successfully healed her."

"You cured her?"

Zhongli was very clear about the condition of the Great Tree King. He never expected that Li Yue would be able to cure the Great Tree King. No one in Teyvat had such an ability!

“That’s right. Unfortunately, she has been dead for at least ten years, leaving only a wisp of her soul. So I can only let her reside in my soul.”

Wait, is the Great Tree King in your soul?

Zhong Li felt that she had been quite shocked today!

"Oh, this is the true ability I have awakened, which is the ability related to the soul. I can absorb other souls and then use their power by letting them reside in my soul. All my power comes from this."

So that's how it is! No wonder we couldn't analyze the essence of Li Yue's power before; it turns out he was borrowing the power of others.

Zhongli nodded silently.

"I promised her that I would help her raise Nasita and allow her to watch her daughter grow up through my eyes. In return, she lent me her power to express her gratitude. That's roughly the situation."

Now Zhongli understood why Naxida was willing to be Li Yue's daughter. Naxida probably knew that the Great Tree King was on Li Yue, which is why she said she wanted to learn how to be a grass god from Li Yue.

Zhongli looked at Li Yue, who was spreading his arms, with a gentle expression. The Great Compassion Tree King was not completely dead and was still residing in Li Yue's body. Although it did not have its own body, it was still a good situation. Zhongli stared into Li Yue's eyes and found that there were green light spots flashing in Li Yue's eyes.

Sure enough, the Great Tree King was observing everything in the outside world through Li Yue's eyes.

Zhongli Like smiled and nodded slightly to Li Yue, expressing his respect for the Great Tree King.

Having stripped away forbidden knowledge, saved the Great Tree King and the World Tree, and been recognized by the Great Tree King, Zhongli naturally also recognized him. If Li Yue's previous behavior in the Hall of Rebirth made Zhongli see Li Yue merely as a young friend from another world, then now in his eyes, Li Yue is a truly recognized family member.

"In that case, you should take good care of this child. If you encounter any difficulties, feel free to tell me."

"really?"

Li Yue's eyes lit up.

"Yes."

Zhongli nodded affirmatively.

"Zhongli, could you find a way to get me a Geo Eye?"

Zhongli was speechless.

You're really obsessed with rock elements.

67. Zhongli, let me introduce you to an important person.

In the end, Li Yue still did not obtain the Eye of the Geo Element because Zhong Li could not agree. He was just a minor guest of the Hall of Rebirth. What merit did he have to help someone else obtain the Eye of the Geo Element, especially since he specifically requested the Geo Element?

Therefore, Zhongli could only temporarily refuse Li Yue's request. However, Zhongli also knew that Li Yue had always wanted to obtain the power of the rock element. Considering Li Yue's soul characteristics and the new power that Li Yue had just shown, Zhongli suddenly had a different idea. Since Li Yue wanted the rock element so much, he might as well give Li Yue a soul that could use the rock element. In this way, wouldn't Li Yue be able to possess the rock element? This would also be a way of expressing his gratitude to Li Yue for saving the Great Tree King.

That’s right, just do it!

Li Yue was unaware of Zhong Li's thoughts. He had only been teasing Zhong Li casually. Now that he was actually given the Eye of God, Zhong Li didn't want it. What he wanted now was the Demon God of the Rock Element!

After sharing his fabricated story with Zhongli, Zhongli believed him without a doubt, which made Li Yue very satisfied, as there would be more ways to play in the future.

After that, Li Yue asked Zhong Li to chat with Naxida, while she went to install the household appliances.

With the solar panels installed, the next step is to install the remaining household appliances. In the entire Wangsheng Hall, only Li Yue understands these things, so the pole installation can only be done by Li Yue alone. For the sake of her future living experience, Li Yue has to work a little harder.

"It's installed, and I feel great."

After spending half an hour arranging and installing the household appliances, Li Yue plopped down in a chair, picked up the tea that Naxida had poured for him, and drank it all in one gulp.

"The solar panels have started generating electricity, so all the appliances can be used now, and I can charge my phone later."

Li Yue's phone, although she hasn't used it much, has almost no battery left after several days of standby.

"Where did all these things come from?"

Zhongli looked at the new refrigerator and massage chair in the living room with great curiosity. These things didn't look like they came from the Teyvat continent.

"Oh, I bought this from another world."

"Different world?"

Zhong Li stared at Li Yue.

Didn't I just say that?

Did you just say that?

"Okay, I didn't mention it earlier. To put it simply, my ability isn't just to open portals on Teyvat, but also to other worlds. So I took Narcida and Wendy to another world. It's a very peaceful world where human technology is very advanced. So I bought these appliances and brought them back to use, especially this one!"

So that's how it is. Going to another world? That's nothing. There are people from Teyvat who go to other worlds.

Li Yue pulled Zhong Li to the massage chair and patted it.
