In addition, he was anxious when he came here, and probably hadn't adjusted properly, which is why he was taken advantage of for a moment.

"You want to remove your karmic obstacles..."

Although Xiao's expression remained largely unchanged, his usual calm demeanor meant that even the slightest change in tone would not escape Qin Ye's notice.

After all, it's about building relationships and navigating social circles; the little thoughts of a cute young man are pretty much the same old things.

Xiao was initially pleased. Firstly, the karmic burden that had plagued humanity for a thousand years had finally come to an end, and secondly... in a sense, it could be considered revenge.

But his joy didn't last long, and he soon became somewhat disappointed.

More than anything, there's a sense of confusion.

"Are you thinking about what to do after you're relieved of your duties?" Qin Ye had completely understood Xiao's thought process.

"The Geo Archon has protected Liyue for a thousand years, and even he has his moments of exhaustion. Today, he has laid down his burden, and you should also learn to enjoy life."

"this..."

Xiao fell into deep thought.

So, how exactly should one enjoy life?

What has Your Majesty been up to lately?

Drinking tea, walking birds, listening to music, tinkering with... and appreciating antiques?

He doesn't know how to do that either.

"Don't worry, you'll be busy later, but I've made all the arrangements for you."

Qin Ye smiled, extended his index and middle fingers, and gently flicked them upwards, causing Xiao and himself to quickly rise into the sky.

"Xiao, tell me, are you good at storytelling?"

"story?"

The young man couldn't quite grasp the point of his boss's words and could only frown.

Strange, what is the deeper meaning behind Lord Qin Ye's words?

After racking his brains for a solution, he could only honestly reply, "I'm sorry, sir, I'm not good at it."

"Then you'd better take this opportunity to recall the development of Liyue over the millennium, otherwise you'll probably be laughed at for a long time when you tell your brothers and sisters about it later."

A gasp reached Qin Ye's ears.

Xiao had never interacted with Gui Zhong, but he had noticed a woman constantly accompanying the Emperor these past few days. He initially assumed it was that the Emperor experiencing life in the mortal realm...

Later, Grandma Ping... who is now the older sister, told the story to Xiao.

Could it be that Lord Qin Ye also wishes to resurrect Lord Gui Zhong...?

"You have no doubt that resurrecting your brothers and sisters is much simpler than resurrecting a demon god, but all of this requires the clearing of karmic obstacles."

Qin Ye had already sensed that the Yaksha still harbored a trace of resentment on the earth due to karmic obstacles. Karmic obstacles had been eroding the Yaksha for a long time, so it was expected that some of them would become entangled. Therefore, as long as their power was extracted, it was theoretically possible to revive them.

It's just that some of the power might be lost, but that's not the most important thing. After all, with Zhongli and Guizhong around, the power will be restored sooner or later.

The only thing he wasn't sure about was that he couldn't find Fu She's existence or resentment.

If his understanding of the plot is correct, Fushe should have perished in the Layered Rock Abyss, but he searched everywhere and couldn't find him. However, there was a very special aura in the deeper part.

Qin Ye was a little worried that asking Xiao directly would reopen old wounds since he hadn't resurrected the other Yakshas yet. It would be safer to resurrect him first and then ask him.

"I would appreciate it if you could stay by my side and protect me."

This also gives the Xiao boy a sense of participation.

"Please rest assured."

"...You're too rigid, give me a smile."

Qin Ye didn't want his child to become another person with facial paralysis because of Zhong Li.

"laugh..."

This word actually stumped Xiao, so he had to try hard to remember it and force a smile.

"No, don't take my words as orders... Never mind, I won't force you on this. I suppose there will be a time like that in the future."

Qin Ye made no further demands, silently closed his eyes, and gently placed his hands, fingers touching, on his chest.

He was able to fully sense the location of the karmic obstacle within a few seconds, but in order not to disturb the lives of the Liyue people at this time, he chose a gentler and more prudent approach.

The light split into several orbs and merged into the earth. Soon, the ley line tree established a connection with him, attacking from both inside and outside, gradually erasing away his karmic obstacles.

Fanes initially integrated his power into the continent, but now it's being given back to Qin Ye; most problems can be solved using Fanes' power.

Thank you, father-in-law.

Xiao could sense that the karmic obstacles that frequently recurred and were difficult to eradicate were gradually being lifted up by Qin Ye's power.

The problem is... he's completely useless as a protector; he's just there to create atmosphere.

The karmic obstacles seemed to be making a final counterattack, trying to invade the surrounding demons, but they were enveloped in light and could not make any progress.

As Qin Ye clasped his hands together, the karmic obstacles met their end.

Three elemental orbs of different colors flew out from the ground. Qin Ye carefully opened his left hand as if protecting a work of art, letting them float on his palm.

With his other hand, he channeled his power, allowing the two energies to slowly merge.

Familiar figures were reflected in Xiao's pupils, and the three bodies gradually transformed from illusory outlines into solid flesh and blood.

"This is..."

Fanan was the first to open his eyes, and in a daze, he saw a familiar figure. His voice trembled and was somewhat weak: "Jin... Peng?"

"..."

Xiao was momentarily speechless; he didn't know how to react to such a long-awaited reunion...

“Fanan...Minu...Yingda”

His hand trembled slightly as he slowly raised it, but then stopped halfway, not daring to step forward and give the other person a hug.

Qin Ye, standing to the side, felt a sense of disappointment and frustration.

If you were to ask one of my brothers, who wishes to remain anonymous, to meet his old friend who has a crush on him, it would be understandable if he didn't say anything.

But you're meeting your brothers and sisters, what are you being so hesitant about?

Qin Ye silently put his hands behind his back and pointed in the direction where Fa Nan was.

Xiao felt as if his body was being controlled, and rushed forward, quickly embracing his sister.

"???"

When did Jin Peng become so enthusiastic?

Mi Nu, who was the first to regain consciousness, looked completely bewildered and turned to look at the man dressed in casual black clothes beside her.

As a man who is usually very observant, he naturally became curious about Qin Ye's identity.

Moreover, even amidst his somewhat confused memories, he was still able to accurately realize that he should have already passed away.

Mi Nu's tone was somewhat respectful: "Sir, may I ask..."

"Hello, I am the second generation of Geo God." Qin Ye smiled and nodded.

"?"

Mi Nu was taken aback at first, but then realized that such a highly accomplished person would not make such a low-level joke, so he asked seriously, "This... I wonder, Your Majesty..."

"It's been sent." Qin Ye's reply was nonchalant: "The body is still sitting in the Golden House."

"?"

Seeing his boss, who had a terrible temper, making such a joke, Xiao had no choice but to abandon his conversation with Yingda and Fanan and step forward to explain.

Qin Ye fell silent, not uttering a word, but raising the corners of his mouth.

The boy was too naive; I tricked him into going up and telling a story.

Even with family members, after a long time apart, some conversation is needed to warm up the relationship; this is imperative.

Wait, I am the law of nature, not my parents...

Why have I been dealing with emotional issues and then family issues lately?

"..."

However, seeing Xiao surrounded by his older sister asking him all sorts of questions and inquiring about his situation over the years, and seeing the boy Xiao awkwardly scratching his head, Qin Ye couldn't help but smile.

Well, isn't this the kind of scene I became Tenri for?

The relaxation of both body and mind allowed Xiao to reveal an expression he hadn't shown in thousands of years.

Even if it was just embarrassment and shyness.

The story is almost over, and the four Yakshas have reconnected with their family ties.

"Mr. Qin Ye."

It was Mi Nu who spoke first: "Thank you for your help during the Demon God War."

The other three also stopped talking and bowed slightly to Qin Ye.

Similarly, if Qin Ye hadn't resurrected them, they wouldn't have even had the chance to thank their benefactor before passing away in pain and chaos.

Those who are afflicted by karmic obstacles will find it difficult to find peace even in death.

The Yakshas exchanged glances and ultimately sent out the most composed person as their representative.

Mi Nu straightened up and respectfully cupped his hands: "Although I know that you must have used a lot of power to revive us, please allow me to ask a very important question."

Qin Ye waved his hand: "I've been preparing for today for about a year. Strength and such are not important." He shook his head, indicating that the others didn't need to worry about it.

"I know what you want to ask."

His gaze shifted to Xiao beside him: "Xiao, you only need to answer me, did Grand Marshal Tengshe really perish in the Layered Rock Abyss?"
