Genshin Impact: I, the Winter's Executor, am forced to work.

What do you mean? Who are you, trying to get my attention?

Despite all that arrogance, in the end he still has to consider the feelings of my brother, the Rock King Emperor.

I would call it a dog's staff... When brothers are of one mind, their strength can break metal.

"I'm very curious..."

Seeing that the other party had disappeared into the void, Qin Ye couldn't help but ask a question.

"How did he come to feel like he was in complete control? What gave him that courage?"

Now that I've mastered all seven elemental powers, I need to have a backup plan for myself, except when fighting weaklings like the mentally unstable Stormterror.

How could someone who can rule the abyss do something so obviously stupid?

strangeness...

He could beat Barbatos to a pulp, so killing me should be a piece of cake for him...

"Don't let his words affect you," Kong said, his voice carrying a hint of comfort.

"No, I... why are you standing so far away?"

Just as Qin Ye was about to prove that he was unaffected, he saw that Kong, who had been facing him, had jumped onto the distant stone wall.

"I have said everything I needed to say, so I should leave now."

“...Brother.” Ying’s voice carried a hint of confusion and anger.

"..." Kong remained silent.

Qin Ye: ...

Your half-step back silenced me completely.

But the matter between the siblings is none of my business. I am the executor of the Fools, and what do your affairs, the traveler's business, have to do with me?

Qin Ye suddenly exerted force with his feet, instantly releasing his restraints on Ying and leaping backward.

null:?

As someone who deals with all sorts of problems year after year, he deeply understands one thing: of all things, the most difficult to manage and the least manageable is family matters.

After all, no matter what the outcome is for the other party, those who interfere will inevitably become clowns to some extent.

So it's not that Qin Ye isn't a good brother; let the parties involved resolve this themselves!

He turned and ran towards the spot where the wind god had been knocked away, leaving the brother and sister enough private space.

As for the alchemical puppet the shadowy figure mentioned...

The tone of the other person's disdainful tone is probably the same as the nickname Paimon gave them.

After all, so many forces are connected to me, and I'm just hoping that an alchemical artifact will stand up for them?

If she's gone through such a long and complicated process, dragging in Winter, Liyue, Inazuma, Mondstadt... not counting the shadows, then her brain isn't quite working properly.

In short, all this back and forth to help me regain my memories is really a bit redundant. Of course, if it's really just a matter of scheming against a twenty-year-old kid like me for hundreds or thousands of years, then never mind what I said, and I can only accept it.

not to mention...

Isn't Columbia still there?

What do you mean by "living off a woman"? Besides me, the Fool, who else would actually live off a woman?

Qin Ye was more inclined to believe that his past self and the king of the Abyss had a blood feud, and he even felt that killing him when he was weak would damage his image, or rather, he completely disregarded it.

In any case, once things settle down in Liyue, everyone will probably understand what they need to understand.

"Hey, Qin Ye, are you done with your work over there?"

Wendy was massaging her legs, looking quite careful and attentive, with a practiced and skillful touch.

"..."

The sight of holes peeking out from stockings is, in a way, quite suggestive.

"I thought you could hold your own against him for a few rounds, but I didn't expect you to be defeated so quickly."

"Well," Wendy's smile was relaxed. "There's nothing I can do about it. After all, I've only been awake for a short time, and my strength is much weaker than before."

His expression was somewhat disappointed: "Wear and tear is a terrible thing... Even the old man couldn't completely avoid it. Ah... You should know what wear and tear is, right?"

"Hmm, I roughly understand." Qin Ye sat cross-legged next to Wendy. Seeing that he hadn't suffered any serious injuries, he realized that this guy had definitely given up resisting and had no intention of risking his life.

"That king of the abyss wanted to take advantage of the situation and steal my Heart of God, but he didn't expect... hehe!"

Qin Ye and Wendy exchanged a smile, their expressions full of mockery.

"As agreed, I've solved Mondstadt's problem for you, taught Dvalin a lesson, and the Abyss's goal... You can talk to the Geo Archon about that yourself; I won't stay with you."

"What? Isn't that being a good brother? I've given you my most precious thing." Wendy put on a pitiful expression and stared at Qin Ye with her big, watery eyes.

"A month's supply of cider."

"terrific."

Qin Ye curled his lips: "Don't think I can't see through your thoughts. You were extremely anxious at the beginning, but now you're acting like nothing's wrong. Tell me honestly, is there a mole sharing information with you?"

Although Sora doesn't seem to like the Seven Gods very much, the fact that he's cooperating with the plan means he's at least not a mortal enemy. So it's quite reasonable for him to reveal some things to Barbatos, who has just joined the plan.

Seeing that the other person had guessed everything that had happened in just a few words, Wendy couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth: "Hehe."

"Let's get down to business... Barbatos."

(Note: Some people have asked about the unclear combat power. Here's a brief explanation: Aside from revealing the seven elemental powers to Venti in Mondstadt, Abyss Aura always uses the power of the Abyss. Therefore, Abyss Aura = Columbia, and Abyss + Seven Elemental Aura is roughly equal to Anemo.)

Actually, I originally wanted to design the void as ether, but after thinking about it, I realized that the official team would betray me, so I didn't set it up that way.

I've positioned Venti roughly in the middle of the seven gods, with Grass being the weakest, Fire, Water, and Anemo about the same, Ice and Electro slightly higher, and Geo far ahead. I'll explain why later.

Qin Ye is probably stuck between the Abyss Void and the Abyss Elemental Void due to his physical condition. There's more to the story, so I definitely can't just make him invincible right away.

In the story, I referenced Daines Reeb's statement that a bard had recently appeared in Mondstadt. The setting was that he had just awakened and was unaware of the plans and situation, which is why his attitude changed at first. Now he understands that everything is part of the Geo Archon's plan.

Colombia's situation is special, and her departure from the team this time is due to special circumstances, which I will explain later.

The plot is about to move away from casual stories, but I will write some casual content. The plot setting is not very complicated, but I am preparing for an original story. So, the content I wrote without completely changing the original work will definitely come together in the end.

As for who is the strongest in everyone's opinion... well, everyone has their own opinion. I can only say that I'll try to maintain a balance without making anything abrupt.

Chapter 190 The Tool's Renewal

"What...what's wrong with it?"

Wendy, looking bewildered, half-squatted beside the sleeping Dvalin, watching as it was wrapped in layers of healing bandages.

"No..." Qin Ye glanced to the side, admiring the azure sky.

"Isn't it normal for minor conflicts to arise during communication?" He smiled, trying to brush the matter off.

"..."

Is this what you call a minor conflict?

"Who treated its wound?"

“It’s me, Mr. Wendy.” Tatiana didn’t seem to be seeking credit or reward; she simply stated a fact calmly: “Brother Qin Ye asked me to heal it, but my skills are limited, and I can only heal it to this extent.”

Nice job.

Qin Ye silently gave a thumbs up in his heart. Although he had never given such an order, this excuse was indeed timely.

"Hey~" Wendy's mood instantly improved, and she looked at Qin Ye with a teasing expression: "This girl was the one who helped us when we were discussing the Heart of God. You two have a pretty good relationship?"

The wind god casually joked, but his gaze was fixed on Dvalin. He stroked its skin with his hand, and the wind element gently clung to its body. The wind dragon's pained expression eased at a visible speed.

"Yes, that's natural." Qin Ye was quite pleased with Wendy's seemingly unintentional praise of Tatiana.

"Let me and Dvalin be alone for a while," the boy changed the subject, his tone full of longing.

"..."

Qin Ye had originally wanted to ask him to keep an eye on the wind dragon's unusual movements, but after thinking about it carefully, Wendy was the god of wind, so it seemed that he didn't need to worry about this.

“Let’s go, Tatiana.”

"Yes."

The two chatted about their upcoming plans and gradually drifted apart.

Wendy's hand was still gently stroking the dragon's body.

"Hehe, you really haven't changed at all in understanding people's hearts. That's why you can build your own bonds at any time. It's a capability that even wear and tear can't overcome."

The boy took out his harp and began to play the Wind Dragon's favorite tune.

Wishing you all the best.

"Tatiana, how is the Heart of the Wind God?" Qin Ye began to review his brief trip to Mondstadt.

"As you said, it has already been handed over to Lady Rosalind for delivery."

"Yes, that's good. Letting her grasp the Heart of the Wind God is a chance for her to have some fun."

It was as if she had personally killed the Wind God...

I'll have to rush to Liyue by then, so I won't have time to make a trip to Winterfall. The Lady has also learned a lot from me, so I'll leave the dealings with the Mondstadt people to her.

It's not that I dislike political dialogue or am afraid of wasting time; it's just about giving others a chance.

The Wolf King's Soul is probably not only useful for finding the original core; capturing a remnant of a demon god's soul would likely have other uses as well. Fortunately, Arecino's intelligence network is extensive enough.

If things continue like this, Mondstadt's every move will be under surveillance.

Unfortunately, this isn't the scenario where the Ice Emperor sweeps across the land.

What is puzzling is, what exactly is the purpose of the Rock King Emperor's scheme?

Protecting Liyue is definitely his top priority, so why would he give the Abyss King the opportunity to come to Mondstadt?

If he's right, the disappearance of the Seven God Statues and the collection of their cores are probably intended to create a war machine that could threaten the laws of nature.

The problem is that a certain Oser is still widowed under the Lonely Cloud Pavilion... oh no, his wife is still alive.

A bunch of riddle solvers really stumped a naive, kind, lively, and straightforward guy like me.
