Genshin Impact: The Sage's Disciple Doesn't Want Fame

As twin demons, and having met Morax at the Seven Gods Gathering, they had some connection. Considering they were neighbors and colleagues, Ray Movie would naturally lend a helping hand.

Ji Ming was completely bewildered: "Barbatos? What's this guy up to?"

Yae no Miko blinked: "Ji-kun is amazing, he actually knows the Wind God."

After glancing at the Wind Attribute Divine Eye at Ji Ming's waist, the Eightfold Divine Child's curiosity grew stronger, and she began to wonder about the little guy's identity.

"I also know the Fox Fairy Palace Master, doesn't that make me even more powerful?"

"Mmm, that's great."

The bad fox is forbidden from imitating Barbara the little angel.

Seeing that the two were getting more and more off-topic, Lei Yingdian interrupted them in time: "From today onwards, you no longer need to live in Narukami Taisha."

Ji Ming raised his hand, looking as obedient as a little baby: "Then where will I stay?"

Lei Ying said, "Tenshukaku, I will teach you martial arts."

Before Ji Ming could react, Yae no Miko was the first to express her dissatisfaction. She sat down next to Lei Yingdian and deliberately put on a tearful expression: "Ying, how could you steal my love? Ji Jun is mine."

The bad fox has changed; it's become a possessive, spoiled dog that needs a lot of love and attention.

Lei Yingdian turned his head and looked at him, his expression softening slightly: "Stop joking around, Divine Child."

"I'm not kidding. He never comes to Narukami Shrine to see me, but now he's here to steal my Ji-kun."

Yae no Miko returned to Ji Ming's side. As if to make her words more credible, she reached out and hugged Ji Ming. Then, her feigned annoyance faltered, as if she had thought of some conversation.

As expected, when Ji Ming was embraced by Yae no Miko, after a brief moment of stunned silence, the guy quickly revealed a sinister smile of triumph.

"Ji Jun, if you dare to take a deep breath, I'll have Sister Gan Yu teach you a lesson."

Upon hearing this, Ji Ming, who was just about to take a deep breath, felt somewhat helpless. The wicked fox reacted very quickly.

Seeing that Ji Ming no longer wanted to take a deep breath, Yae no Miko finally felt relieved and continued to pretend to cry: "Waaah, Ying never comes to keep me company. I'm so lonely, so lonely. Now that Ji-kun is with me, how can Ying steal my love? You bad guy!"

This is a lie. The reason why Yae no Miko wanted to keep Ji Ming was firstly because of Gan Yu's request, and secondly because she knew that Lei Yingdian's trial was very difficult. If she didn't want Ji Ming to become a lump of mud, it was best not to let the little guy go.

Yae no Miko did her best so that Sister Gan Yu wouldn't worry about her junior brother.

Lei Yingdian didn't speak, but looked at Ji Ming next to Yae Shinko, intending to give the choice to Ji Ming.

If Ji Ming is unwilling, Lei Movie doesn't need to force him. After all, it was Morax's request, and he can just explain the situation truthfully afterward.

Seeing Lei Yingdong cast his gaze, Ji Ming readily agreed: "I believe in Barbatos, and I also believe in the general's martial arts skills."

Lei Ying stood up: "Okay, come with me."

After saying that, Lei Yingdong left the main hall.

Yae no Miko, exasperated, poked Ji Ming's face hard: "You don't appreciate kindness, is Ji-jun an idiot?"

Ji Ming did not resist: "I know that the general's teachings may be very difficult."

"Then why did you go?"

"Because I'm an idiot."

"バカ!!"

Yes, the fox priest who occasionally insults me in Inatsume's language.

Chapter 99 [Extra Chapter] Jianghu Daolang Li

Orphan – that was Li Sui's first identity in Liyue Harbor.

Compared to his sworn brothers from the Nine Gates, Li Sui undoubtedly has the most peculiar background. He has never met his biological parents since he can remember, and he doesn't have a single relative by his side.

At the same time, the biggest difference between Li Sui and his sworn brothers was that he liked to write diaries.

Because of his orphanage, Li Sui was taken in by the nursing home established by the Liyue government when he was very young. There were many orphans who had lost their parents, as well as lonely elderly people who had lost their children.

This is one of the welfare measures of the Liyue government. In order to hide the male officials of powerful families, the officials specially created this Liyue-style orphanage for orphans.

While high-ranking officials are not exactly virtuous, there are many idealists among the lower-level clerks, such as the directors of various nursing homes. They are willing to come to these places with no political prospects, simply to take care of children who have lost their parents.

At least during his childhood, Li Sui was not alone, because the nursing home he lived in had a good director whose eyes were both gentle and sharp, and who could pay attention to every child.

Lu Ci'an, 48 years old, unmarried woman, is said to come from a good family. In her youth, she had many handsome men pursuing her, but she rejected them all.

The orphans all called her Lu Niang.

"I want the children of Liyue to have enough to eat, and I want the children of Liyue to be able to go to school."

This is a phrase that Lu Ci'an often says. She frequently teaches orphans to read and write in the nursing home.

The orphans were all well-behaved, but Li Sui was very mischievous. He was the most active person in the entire nursing home, climbing trees to dig nests and tearing off roof tiles. He also liked to play with guns and sticks all day long, which gave Lu Ci'an a lot of headaches.

Lu Ci'an knew that since Xiao Li had neither parents nor friends, he was probably giving up on himself.

Because of this personality, Li Sui had almost no friends in the nursing home. Only Lu Ci'an often played with him, and he would just laugh it off even when the little guy played pranks on him.

Gradually, Li Sui became obedient in front of Lu Ci'an. He did everything that Lu Niang asked him to do. If anyone dared to say anything bad about Lu Niang, he would pounce on them and beat them up, even if he couldn't beat them.

To prevent Li Sui from developing a distorted personality, Lu Ci'an had no choice but to have him read every day and teach him how to write a diary.

"Lu Niang, I don't want to write in my diary."

"Why don't you want to write? Writing a diary is so much fun! Xiao Sui can write down all the interesting things that happen every day, and Lu Niang can write with Xiao Sui."

"really?"

"Really, Xiao Sui, shall we start writing today?"

Picking up a pen and paper, Xiao Li racked his brains, secretly glancing at Lu Ci'an while biting the end of the pen, and finally wrote in a crooked hand: "I like Lu Niang, and I want to marry Lu Niang as my wife in the future."

Lu Ci'an sighed helplessly, reached out and pinched Li Sui's cheek, then took the pen that he was biting: "You can't bite the pen anymore, it's very unhealthy."

That's how children talk—it can be both funny and embarrassing. Where did this child learn the word "woman"?

Lu Ci'an didn't dwell on the matter. Instead, she started writing and drawing in her notebook, deliberately letting Li Sui see: "Lu's mother likes Xiao Sui very much. Xiao Sui should grow up happily."

From that day on, Li Sui took to writing in his diary. The orphan, who had no friends, would scribble and draw in his diary and then secretly place it on Lu Niang's bedside table.

The next day, a diary would appear on the bedside table, with a few lines of neat handwriting and a hand-drawn emoticon at the end.

It was a series of children's paintings featuring Li Sui. Lu Ci'an used this method to pull the self-destructive Li Sui back onto the normal path of growth.

Of all the children in the nursing home, Lu Ci'an preferred Li Sui. Although this went against her professional ethics, people are always biased. After taking care of all the other children, she always liked to play with Li Sui.

Perhaps, in Lu Ci'an's heart, her biological child would be like Li Sui, sometimes obedient and sometimes naughty, but mostly obedient.

The reason she didn't get married was because Lu Ci'an was afraid that her own children would take away her love for the orphans.

However, the existence of Xiao Li Sui inevitably caused Lu Ci'an to show favoritism, although this favoritism was very slight and based on fairness.

Lu Ci'an began to learn to knit. Coming from a wealthy family, she rarely had any experience with this kind of work and was often pricked by the needle, resulting in various wounds on her fingers.

Of all the children, it was Xiao Li who first noticed that something was wrong with Lu Ci'an. However, he did not make a fuss. Instead, he took his pocket money, bought some medicine patches from a vendor, and quietly placed them on Lu Ci'an's bedside table.

The next day, Li Sui was held in Lu Ci'an's arms for a very long time, almost to the point of being unable to breathe.

Lu Ci'an's health was not good; she had to drink various expensive Chinese medicines since childhood. After she announced that she would not get married, her family severed ties with her.

The director's salary alone was not enough to support Lu Ci'an in purchasing traditional Chinese medicine. She could feel her health deteriorating, and she would consider it a long life if she lived to sixty at most.

The reason she knitted sweaters was because of Lu Ci'an's health condition. She wanted to knit some sweaters for Li Sui, enough for him until he turned twenty-two.

Although Lu Ci'an paid great attention to her health, the pressure of work still overwhelmed the director. The Liyue government had been refusing to approve the subsidy, and when she heard that the government wanted to close and merge a number of nursing homes, she suffered a stroke and immediately became bedridden.

Lu Ci'an knew that the orphanage had harmed the interests of the powerful families, and there were many officials from powerful families in the Liyue government. What would happen to these orphans?

Lu Ci'an was helpless; she could only watch her body grow thinner and thinner each day.

Fifteen-year-old Li Sui often went out to do illegal work in order to buy Chinese medicine for Lu Ci'an, even when Lu Ci'an scolded him severely.

"Xiao Sui, when did you become so disobedient?"

"I don't want to obey, I just want Lu Niang to live."

In three years, Li Sui will leave the nursing home. He thought he could come back to visit often after leaving the nursing home, but unexpectedly, Lu Niang's health deteriorated rapidly.

Lu Ci'an's eyes were filled with tears: "There are sweaters I knitted for you in the closet. Take them and keep them safe. I've knitted enough sweaters for you until you're twenty-two."

"Lu Niang?"

"After you turn twenty-two, another woman will knit you a sweater, Xiao Sui..."

It was clear that Lu Ci'an had a lot more to say, but her physical condition prevented her from saying more.

A month later, Lu Ci'an passed away.

Eight months after Lu Ci'an passed away, the nursing home was closed.

A year after the nursing home was closed, a wealthy businessman who had proposed closing it was murdered, stabbed seven times in the back. The murderer left behind a blood-written letter with the character "Li".

Three days after the wealthy businessman was murdered, the nursing home was reopened.

Chapter 100: It's all the work of the wicked fox.

The castle tower, from the outside, looks like a tower-shaped Inazuma pavilion, with a height of no more than 20 meters. But from the inside, it is a whole different world, with a total of nine floors, each with a very spacious interior.

"From now on, you will live on the first floor, and I will live on the ninth floor. You must reach the ninth floor within these few months, or the trial will fail."
