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

She didn't quite understand what the other person meant.

"Yes, I just looked through some of the events that have happened in Inazuma in recent years. The Eye Hunt Order happened too suddenly. There must be some mastermind behind it."

Moreover, he is no simple character. Compared to other gods, he is easier to fool, but he is still a god. Although he has gone astray, his purpose is to love his people.

In other words, the person behind this must have come up with some explanation that she couldn't refuse.

The only person on the island who can influence her is Yae no Miko.

Through his probing of Ayato, Qin Ye realized that it was basically impossible.

Since she agreed to let the fools go ashore and even offered them help, it means she wanted to take advantage of the situation to rescue her good sister.

Of course, it cannot be ruled out that she wants to shift the blame to the Fools.

After all, regardless of whether Teyvat is chaotic or not, my family will take half the blame.

Therefore, it is highly likely that there is another force hidden in the shadows that he has not yet discovered.

“Tatiana, it just so happens that I haven’t tested you in a long time, now is a good time.”

"Brother Qin Ye, please ask."

"I didn't have many interactions with Ningguang in Liyue, similar to those with Ayato. In your opinion, who is more troublesome, Ningguang or Ayato?"

Without hesitation, the girl replied, "Ningguang."

"Oh? Why do you think that?"

"Because in the mystery... no one can match you in terms of rhetoric. When Ningguang was with you, you rarely used these tactics with her, but instead tested her little by little."

In other words, Qin Ye believed that Ningguang was not likely to be completely fooled after just one conversation.

"That's the idea. Although Liyue has seven stars and eight gates, each has its own role and everyone is of one mind. As a result, the resources that Ningguang can control are unimaginable. This is also my strength. But it would be very troublesome if it were an enemy. Using power to oppress others is the hardest thing to break free from. After all, the general trend cannot be defied or reversed."

Even if Tianquan Ningguang can't outsmart me, she doesn't need to win every time. She only needs to find one flaw in me to win.

It's good that Zhongli was hiding it; if he didn't care at all that others knew he was the Rock King Emperor, I wouldn't have been able to fool him long ago.

But what exactly is your society's "advocacy"? On the surface, the three advocacy leaders each have their own duties, but in reality, they are all ruthless in their struggles, cunning, and scheming. I could easily slip in and fish in troubled waters with just a few words.

To put it bluntly, even if General Thunder came... she couldn't come. She doesn't care at all, and she doesn't understand.

That's why he summed up Inazuma in one word: chaos.

The factions are in chaos, the backgrounds are in chaos, and the people are in chaos.

The main problem is that things will get even more chaotic after I arrive.

Hehe.

"Actually, Inazuma's little matter is nothing, but we must proceed step by step. As for that Yae-no-miya, I've thought about it for about half a day and I already have a way to deal with her. No one needs to come with me, otherwise how can I play her?"

Tatiana nodded hesitantly. She had a feeling that Qin Ye was hiding something from her, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

"Then I'll head to Narukami Shrine first. You can stay behind as the shrine magistrate..."

Qin Ye lowered his voice and quietly reminded him.

"When Ayato asks you to do something, just drag it out. When Tom tries to get information out of you, just pretend you don't know. Chat with Ayaka Kamisato more about everyday things, but remember, only talk about family matters, because there's a possibility that her brother might be teaching her how to talk. Also, when you're together, the other two won't be able to find you."

As for Tadalia, he himself knows nothing, and even Taromaru knows that chatting with him is a waste of time.

"I understand."

She silently kept those words in her heart.

"Alright, then I'll..."

Qin Ye was about to get up when he felt his arm being pressed down firmly.

"Columbia, I have important things to take care of, please let go first."

"Wait a minute... it'll be ready soon."

The girl changed her position and buried her face in Qin Ye's arm.

"..."

Have I been spoiling you guys too much lately?

The other party seemed to understand Qin Ye's thoughts and added.

"From Liyue to Inazuma, it's exhausting."

He stared helplessly at the girl with her eyes tightly closed, and clenched his fist.

Okay, okay.

"Tatiana, come here."

"Hmm? Do I need to bring Lady Columbia..."

"You sleep here."

"?"

Is there such a good thing?

-

"hiss..."

Someone moved their two numb arms, then gently placed them at their sides, stepping onto a staircase that had absolutely no connection to the mortal world.

I remember Narukami Taisha was a beautiful place, with neat and tidy staircases and torii gates...

He looked down at the nuclear waste pool below the cliff, at the path that had ended halfway down, and he didn't know how to proceed.

Oh, I always teleport directly to the mountaintop in the game, then it's fine.

He gritted his teeth and looked around at the deserted scenery. The Divine Eye in his clothes flashed, and rock pillars emerged from the mountain.

Thunder surged beneath his feet, churning and tumbling above the rock pillars, and he ascended to the mountaintop in one breath.

To Inashiro Hotaru's astonishment, a figure shot into the sky and then landed smoothly in front of her.

"who?"

The shrine maiden's heart was in her throat.

"Zhongli, a retainer of the guild, has come to see Lord Yae no Kami, on the orders of his master, Ayato Kamisato."

Chapter 64: I should play along and pretend not to see.

(Note: This chapter is partly told from the perspective of the shrine maiden.)

"Looking for Lady Miyaji? Then you may have come at the wrong time. She went to Yaedo today for a promotional event for her new novel and is not at Narukami Taisha."

"The shrine priest isn't at the shrine, huh? Fine, I'm in Mondstadt, right?"

Qin Ye pouted, looking displeased.

"You, a mere shrine maiden, have delayed the patriarch's affairs. Can you bear the responsibility for that?!"

Faced with the aggressive attitude, Inashiro Hotaru was not annoyed, but simply smiled.

“Oh dear, Mr. Zhongli, since you are in such a hurry, please wait a moment while I explain to the other priestesses, and then I will personally take you to Inazuma Castle to find Lord Yae no Miyaji.”

"Hurry up."

Qin Ye waved his hand impatiently, then stood up with his arms crossed.

The priestess had just turned around and taken a few steps when his toes began to tap the ground repeatedly. His brows were furrowed, and he would occasionally look up at the position of the sun, as if checking the time.

Within just two minutes, he could no longer stand and began pacing back and forth in place.

Finally, as the priestess watched him about to enter the shrine herself, she turned and walked back.

"Mr. Zhongli, we can set off now."

"Then please."

The two walked silently down the road. Inashiro Hotaru squinted at the man walking quickly ahead, lost in thought.

"Hey, there's no way forward. It was like this when I came up. How did you guys build this staircase?"

The woman had a smile on her face.

"Hehe, just take two steps forward, and the road will appear naturally."

"You're kidding me."

Qin Ye appeared quite annoyed and took two tentative steps forward.

The shrine maiden tapped her fingers lightly from her sleeve.

The man in front of him suddenly slipped and fell from a great height. Fortunately, he was agile and grabbed a tree branch to stop his fall.

"ha!..."

The woman's smile was quite unrestrained, but she didn't laugh out loud for fear of being discovered. She waved her slender hand in front of her face, then covered her lips, while her other hand supported her lower abdomen.

She wanted to slap her thigh several times, but she resisted the urge.

Seeing Qin Ye raise his head to look at her, she instantly reverted to an innocent, expressionless face.

"Oh dear! It was my oversight! The shrine is currently under renovation, and many parts are a bit unstable. I'm so sorry, Mr. Zhongli. Are you alright?"

She craned her neck and looked down with concern and anxiety.

"It's alright. I, Zhongli, represent the will of the patriarch and don't concern myself with ordinary people."

After all, what does Zhongli's embarrassment have to do with me, Qin Ye?

He landed nimbly, looked at the steps in front of him, and called out, "My lady, why don't you just jump down from over there so I can catch you?"

When Inashiro Hotaru saw the other party make a hugging gesture, she scoffed at this clumsy counterattack.

She quickly waved her hands and awkwardly took a step back.

"No need, no need. Wait for me down here. There are other routes that go in the opposite direction."

"?"

Seeing the man below with his veins bulging, the shrine maiden was overjoyed.
