Genshin Impact: Reincarnation Exposed, Heroines Run to Their Husbands in Tears

Page 215

Furthermore, the baby boy kept his eyes tightly closed, wailing loudly, showing absolutely no strength.

"The Emperor is right."

"I think he must have been hungry, that's why he was crying so loudly."

[The human-like Xianyun (True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng) adjusted his glasses, his eyes curiously observing the baby boy not far away.]

[I found it extremely interesting.]

Zhongli nodded and strode away.

However, the next second...

He immediately sensed that something terrible was about to happen.

A sharp force erupted from the baby boy's body.

Fortunately, Zhongli reacted quickly and the effect vanished.

Even so, the sharp force of "597" still managed to slash his cheek.

Fresh blood immediately flowed out.

"Your Majesty!"

The sudden scene was quite bizarre.

For a moment, all the immortals stared in disbelief at the infant boy, who seemed oblivious to everything and continued to cry.

【"this..."】

"Impossible! How could a mere baby boy possess such formidable power?"

【"actually..."】

"How could it possibly harm the Emperor?"

What's most incomprehensible is that this force seems to be uncontrollably protecting a crying baby.

Zhong Li stood motionless, his expression solemn.

After a long pause, he slowly spoke, "It seems the surrounding magical beasts were all killed by its power because they wanted to devour this infant."

"This child..."

"Could it be another offspring of a demon god?" Xianyun's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly.

But she quickly abandoned this foolish idea.

The demons of Liyue had long been defeated and killed by the Geo Archon. Very few demons survived, and they were all suppressed by the Archon's rock spear.

Even if they have offspring, none could be as fierce as the baby boy before them.

"Morax, look..."

The human-shaped Naga King scratched his head.

Things seem a bit tricky.

"We can't just leave him here unattended."

Even if the monsters can't harm him, it would be troublesome if passing humans, unaware of the situation, got close to him.

【"besides..."】

[The Dragon King Ruoduo listened to the baby boy's cries.]

[He sighed, "He must be starving. If this continues, he might starve to death."]

Zhong Li nodded.

[Then, he spoke up: "I am Morax, the Geo Archon, one of the newly appointed Seven Rulers of Teyvat and a deity of Liyue."]

"I just want to take this child back to Liyue to care for him; I have no ill intentions whatsoever."

[It was as if they understood Zhongli's words.]

The baby boy's cries were a little weaker.

[Seeing this.]

Zhongli stepped forward again.

This time, nothing unusual happened when approaching the baby boy.

When he picked up the baby boy, he discovered a piece of white jade with iridescent colors shimmering within the swaddling clothes.

【"this..."】

"Could it be that this jade stone is protecting the baby?"

[Zhongli murmured to herself.]

At this moment, the other immortals also gathered around, but they were not attacked in any way.

"Your Majesty, this jade stone?"

[The True Lord of Flowing Water and Stacked Mountains looked at Zhongli, puzzled.]

The other immortals also shook their heads.

"I have never seen such a peculiar jade."

"I have a feeling that this piece of jade contains a rather terrifying power."

"However..." Xianyun tentatively rubbed her face against the baby boy's cheek.

The baby boy suddenly grabbed her finger and began sucking on it vigorously.

"Hey, this kid's really hungry."

"The most urgent thing is to find him a wet nurse."

[Xianyun let the baby boy suck his fingers.]

Her suggestion was accepted by everyone.

Zhongli then handed the baby boy to Xianyun.

"However, from a generally rational perspective, we should give him a name before that."

"Let's name him according to the style and tradition of Liyue. Since he appears in Liyue, let's call him Liyue," said the Dragon King, Rhododendron, offering the first answer.

【"this..."】

"Are you an idiot? How could you name a child after a place?"

Xianyun rolled her eyes at Ruotu Dragon King.

"No, this name is too casual."

[True Lord of Carving the Moon and Building the Sun nodded slightly, agreeing with Xianyun's point of view.]

"Since a peculiar, iridescent jade stone was stuffed in his swaddling clothes."

"Let's name him Ayu."

Zhong Li: "..."

[Xianyun: "Hmph! The name you chose is even more casual than Ruotuo's, and he's a boy, but you gave him a girl's name."]

"Then what should it be called? If not, you think of something." The True Lord of Moon-Slicing and Sun-Building Glory grumbled.

Then, as if remembering something, he finally turned his gaze to Zhongli.

"I think the decision to name this child should be left to the Emperor."
