He had already gone blind as soon as he arrived in Genshin Impact.

Chapter 83 is really lame.

"Alright everyone, let's prepare to seal it. After you've removed all the karmic obstacles from Xiao's body, we'll seal it directly."

"Yes, Your Majesty." X4

(Note: Grandma Ping has returned to Liyue Harbor.)

The immortals surrounded Wu Di and Xiao, looking ready to fight. Xiao understood their intentions and silently adjusted his power, preparing to seal the karmic obstacle in Wu Di's hand.

For the immortals, time passed rather slowly, but they could tell from the ever-growing black aura in Wu Di's hand just how much karmic burden had accumulated within Xiao's body.

If these karmic obstacles were released, it's unknown how long it would pollute an area—it could take hundreds, or even thousands of years.

As the black ball in Wu Di's hand grew larger, Xiao also felt his body gradually becoming lighter, the murderous desires in his mind lessened considerably, and the flow of power became smoother.

Wu Di stopped when a black ball the size of a basketball appeared. He took a deep breath and calmed himself down. Now, all the karmic obstacles within Xiao's body were in his hands.

"There are quite a lot."

Wu Di examined the black ball floating in his hand. The karmic obstacle was now like a quiet "troublemaker," constantly wriggling back and forth, just like a living thing.

"Young friend, just throw the karmic burden in your hand onto the ground."

"Oh? Oh, okay."

Looking at the immortals and emperors standing guard around him, Wu Di realized that the thing in his hand was dangerous. Hearing Zhong Li's words, he gently tossed it upwards.

The karmic obstacle broke free from Wu Di's control and was about to go berserk, but in an instant, countless golden chains bound it tightly.

Next, all the immortals worked together to completely seal away the karmic obstacles, and then, with Wu Di's help, the problem that had troubled Xiao for nearly a thousand years was ended in a muddled way.

Xiao felt the changes in his body and felt refreshed. He couldn't help but wonder if things would have been better if Wu Di had existed hundreds of years ago.

Xiao didn't know that his expression was very serious. He clenched his fist and placed it on his chest, and earnestly assured Wu Di.

"Wu Di, I will always remember this kindness. If you ever need any help in the future, please call my name loudly, Xiao, and I will quickly come to your side to help and protect you."

Looking at the extremely serious Xiao in front of him, Wu Di didn't know what to do for a moment, because this was just something he wanted to do, and he didn't care about the reward.

However, seeing Xiao's extremely serious and earnest attitude, Wu Di had no choice but to agree, and the long period of guidance made him a little tired.

"Okay, I understand."

Upon hearing this, all the immortals around laughed. Wu Di had solved another problem for Li Yue, which gave Zhong Li a headache. Favors are truly hard to repay.

"Alright, young friend, it's getting late. You should go and get some rest. Leave the rest to us."

Seeing Wu Di's exhaustion, Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun felt sorry for him and told him to go and rest.

The current True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng couldn't wait to make Wu Di her son-in-law, because not only had he brought Guizhong back, but he had also solved Xiao's troubles.

Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun just wanted Gan Yu to be more ambitious and quickly win over Wu Di; she couldn't wait any longer.

"Okay, see you all tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow, young friend."

"See you tomorrow."

As Wu Di returned to his cave, the immortals gathered around Xiao and offered their congratulations.

"Congratulations, Great Sage Who Subdues Demons!"

"Congratulations."

"Xiao, how are you feeling now?"

Zhongli's concern made Xiao fall silent for a moment. He clenched his fist and then felt the strength in his body.

"It's better than ever before, Your Majesty."

“I even feel a little unreal, that the karmic obstacles that have caused me pain for nearly a thousand years have been removed by my benefactor.”

"Ah."

Zhongli nodded and said nothing more. Instead, he turned his gaze to the sealed black sphere and began to think.

Since Wu Di's power is capable of this, could his other old friend also receive help?

Zhong Li plans to find some time to ask Wu Di for a favor, as there are more and more favors owed.

Zhong Li said that since there was already so much, a little more wouldn't hurt. If Wu Di needed anything or was bullied, she would just take care of it herself.

"..."

--the next day

Wu Di and Gan Yu bid farewell to the immortals and Zhong Li early in the morning and embarked on their journey back to Liyue Harbor.

When the immortals saw Wu Di take out a wind slime, they were somewhat surprised, especially since it could grow larger, large enough to hold both Wu Di and Gan Yu.

However, the immortals quickly calmed down. Having witnessed Wu Di's power before, they were no longer surprised by this level of strength.

Wu Di is now holding the Geo-attribute Eye of God given to him by Zhong Li, and it activated with a single touch. He can feel a subtle connection between the Eye of God in his hand and himself.

Incidentally, when Wu Di received the Eye of God, the seven elements switched back and forth before finally settling on the Geo element.

Even after the image froze, it lit up a few times, as if to say, "Is this all you've got? That's really lame."

Now Wu Di feels closer to the rock element, and in his other hand there's a little rock figure constantly making movements: uppercuts! straight punches! sweeping kicks! Just like a martial arts master, Wu Di is having a blast.

Come on, having a rock character that you can control is really cool.

Gan Yu watched quietly as a faint smile appeared on her face. In her eyes, Wu Di was just like a playful little boy, and he was the only one she could focus on.

Gan Yu wished time could slow down, as this opportunity to be alone with him was extremely rare and she cherished it. She then quietly moved her body a little closer to Wu Di, and could already smell the faint fragrance emanating from him, like a glass lily.

But time doesn't stop moving, no matter who it is.

Soon, several hours passed, and the two returned to Liyue Harbor. Gan Yu said goodbye to Wu Di because she still had work to do. The three Wen sisters must have been exhausted from yesterday all day.

After all, when she returned after a day's rest last time, she saw "corpses strewn everywhere" and the three girls collapsed on their seats, looking like they had been burned out. This made them realize just how terrifying Gan Yu's workload really was.

Chapter 84 Waiting is the most agonizing thing

After parting ways with Gan Yu, Wu Di planned to return to the inn to meet up with Ying and the others and let them know he was safe.

When Wu Di returned to the inn, before he even went upstairs, he saw a white figure rushing towards him. In order not to hurt the person, Wu Di did not dodge, because he sensed a familiar aura from the figure.

He was then knocked to the ground, accompanied by a familiar sound.

"Xiao Di, waaaaah, I've finally found you."

— An hour ago

Barbara woke up early in the morning from Wu Di's bed. After so long, she finally had a very peaceful sleep.

But the girl still didn't want to get up, wanting to savor Wu Di's scent in bed a little longer, until there was a knock on the door and Ying's voice came from outside.

"Barbara, are you up?"

"Coming, coming, what's up?"

Seeing this, Barbara had no choice but to get out of bed, open the door, and look at her two friends with a smile.

"Oh, I was just asking if you're going to get some breakfast? After all, Xiao Di probably won't be back anytime soon."

"Hmm—, okay, I'll tidy up first, please wait for me."

Barbara nodded, then glanced at her somewhat disheveled clothes. It would be too unrefined to go out like this; she needed to tidy herself up first.

Then, Bright and Paimon waited for almost ten minutes before Barbara opened the door.

During the wait, Ying had originally planned to sneak a peek, since they were all girls and it wouldn't be a big deal to just look.

But Paimon reminded her, "Are you sure? Barbara now is not the Barbara she used to be."

Paimon's reminder suddenly reminded Ying of Barbara's gaze yesterday, and she trembled involuntarily. In that gaze, there was always a feeling that she was about to be stabbed.

Ying had no choice but to suppress her lecherous thoughts and obediently wait.

(As the saying goes, lust is a double-edged sword; it's best to play it safe.)

Ying silently thought to herself that being a lecherous rogue requires knowing when to advance and retreat so that one can achieve one's goals without others noticing. This was based on her experience over the years.

Immediately afterwards, Ying and her group went to Wanmintang for breakfast. Ying then told them her plans for the future, as she had obtained clues about her brother and was going to go look for him.

Barbara nodded. She had told Ying about her situation; Ying had embarked on her journey to find her blood relatives. Barbara offered her her blessings to Ying.

Then they parted ways, and Barbara returned to the inn, leaning on the upstairs railing and watching the crowds of people coming and going below.

From here, you can see people coming and going from the inn, so as soon as Wu Di walks into the inn, Barbara will see him and give him a big hug.

Time was passing slowly, and Barbara was starting to get bored. She had already turned away several groups of people who tried to chat her up. After all, under Barbara's intense gaze, the people who tried to chat her up would just laugh it off and leave before they could even say anything. The pressure was just too much.

(When will Xiaodi come back?)

Barbara thought to herself silently.

The girl wanted to touch his skin again, hear his voice again, smell his scent again, and embrace him again...

Indeed, waiting is the most agonizing thing.

However, luck was on Barbara's side. Among the crowd, a white-haired man stood out, and even though he was wearing a mask, the girl knew who he was.

Barbara excitedly ran downstairs and threw herself into the man's arms. She gently inhaled his scent, which was so familiar and nostalgic that she couldn't help but cry.

"Xiao Di, waaaaah, I've finally found you!"

"Barbara?"

Hearing the familiar voice, Wu Di realized what was happening and looked at the girl in his arms.

"Well, it's me."

Barbara didn't raise her head, but buried herself in Wu Di's arms, holding him tightly with both hands, and then responded indistinctly.

"When did you arrive? Um, let's go upstairs first and talk about it."

When Wu Di was about to ask, he felt the gazes of the people around him and realized that they were still on the street.

"Please let me go first, okay?"

"not good!"
