I write novels in Liyue

"Fang Qiu, have some decency. Otherwise, let that bastard Otto die."

"Otto is truly inhuman, he's despicable."

"The ability to portray villains as so hateful is also a testament to skill..."

"Don't panic, don't panic. In general, people who say they are going to die usually survive, while those who say they won't die usually do. So don't panic."

"Really……"

"Look at 'Your Lie in April,' didn't Kaori Miyazono die because she wanted to live?"

"You...you're really something!"

As they talked, they urged Bai Qing to turn the page, as the next chapter was the final chapter of the first volume.

Bai Qing let out a long sigh and turned the page.

The last chapter and the last lesson of this volume.

P.S.: I'll update tonight, no need to wait until tomorrow.

Volume 1: Chapter 474 (Chapter 472) Release Date (Please Subscribe)

Five days later.

early morning.

The weather is overcast.

The streets of Liyue Harbor were quiet, with few pedestrians and fresh, slightly damp air.

"Dong dong dong."

Early in the morning, there was a knock on the door on the second floor of the Rebirth Hall.

A moment later, the door opened.

"Master, is there something you need?"

Zhong Li stood behind the door, dressed neatly, looking helplessly at his master, who was smiling.

"Zhongli, it's book release day! Let's go buy some books together!"

Hu Tao smiled and waved, saying...

"Well, let's go."

Zhong Li nodded, closed the door behind him, and followed Hu Tao downstairs.

"By the way, Zhongli, did you see the promotional video for Fang Qiu's new book yesterday?"

As Hu Tao walked downstairs, she asked.

"Was that animation where the white-haired girl jumped off the warship just after the countdown reached nine?"

Zhongli asked, "I saw it on the street yesterday."

"Yes, yes, that's it."

Hu Tao nodded with a smile.

"how?"

Zhongli glanced at Hu Tao, who was unusually excited, and asked in a calm voice.

"Hey hey hey."

Hu Tao shook her head with a mischievous grin and said, "You'll find out when the time comes."

Downstairs, Lao Meng and Yi Guan Xiao Mei looked on with anticipation as they heard Hu Tao and Zhong Li talking about the promotional video for Fang Qiu's new book.

"I never expected it! I never expected that Miss Fang Qiu would actually make a promotional video for her new book, and with such a large promotional effort. It's clearly a work of confidence from Miss Fang Qiu. I'm really looking forward to it!"

"That guy who jumps off a high place the moment he hears the number nine is really like our leader. Could he have been modeled after our leader?"

Hu Tao just smiled and didn't say anything in response to their discussion. She pulled the cart and set off with Zhong Li to Wanwenji House.

And they were to stay and guard the gate.

Hu Tao hummed "Ten Treasure Thieves," a song Fang Qiu had taught her, as she pulled her cart down the street.

Just as she finished singing about how all the treasure-hunting gangs were dead, she turned her head and looked at the two members of the treasure-hunting gang, one fat and one thin, standing there with steamed buns in their hands.

"Hey? Long time no see."

Her sinister tone startled the two members of the treasure-hunting team, causing them to drop the buns from their hands.

Before the buns even hit the ground, a dog darted out with lightning speed, snatched both buns in its mouth, and then fled.

By the time they realized what was happening, the dog had already run far away.

"Okay...long time no see. We have something to do, so we'll be going now."

The skinny guy didn't have time to feel sorry for his steamed buns; he took off running, with the fat guy close behind.

"Why run so fast? I was planning to recommend Fang Qiu's new book to them."

Hu Tao shrugged, looking somewhat helpless.

"Master, let's go. If there are too many people later, you'll have to wait in line for a long time again."

Zhongli said calmly.

"That's true."

Walnut nodded.

The two groups of thieves only stopped after Hu Tao and Zhong Li had gone far away.

"Big...Big brother, what do we do? The steamed buns are all gone..."

"If it's gone, it's gone. We can just buy another one."

"But we only have seventy moras left, and we still need to buy Qiu's book later..."

"What's there to be afraid of? A book costs twenty mora. If we buy three books, we'll still have ten mora left, enough for each of us to have two big meat buns and a bowl of soy milk."

They walked towards the breakfast shop.

Meanwhile, Hu Tao and Zhong Li arrived at the foot of Wanwenjishe, where a long queue was forming.

Below the stairs, an animation of Kiana jumping off the ship was playing.

"Tsk tsk, that scene where he jumps off the ship is still just as cool no matter how many times I watch it!"

"Speaking of which, what does 'ship' mean?"

"I read the book 'Pillow Jade' in Inazuma. It describes something like a ship that can fly in the sky. If you really don't understand, just think of the boat-shaped 'Gunyu Pavilion'."

"Now that you mention it, I understand. So, the protagonist jumped down from the Jade Pavilion, which flies high in the sky?"

"I'm so envious. I want to try this experience too. Even if I can't fly, it would be great to jump from such a height without getting hurt. I really want to try it."

"Yes, that part about breaking through the clouds was really amazing, and the part where the protagonist counted down to ten seconds and then coolly cut off the communication at the ninth second was really impressive."

"I heard that someone tried to fly on a sword like Li Xiaoyao and broke their leg. I wonder if it's true?"

"Someone broke his leg while flying on a sword first, and that's why Fang Qiu wrote about flying on a sword. He probably wanted to make up for that brother's regret in the book."

"By the way, how do they communicate? And how do they manage to pop up a pair of glasses with a single press and then interrupt the conversation?"

"This is a remote communication device, so even if you are in Inazuma right now, you can still have a conversation like we are now."

"Dude, how come you know everything?"

"This is the benefit of reading 'The Record of Shen Qiu Picking Up the Sword'. I'll buy a copy later. You'll understand after reading it. However, after reading Fang Qiu's book, you might also understand 'The Record of Shen Qiu Picking Up the Sword'."

"Damn it, open the door! I want to see 'Honkai Impact' right now!"

"You've got the guts to put on a promotional video, but not the guts to open the door? Open the door!"

The crowd was buzzing with discussion, praising the promotional animation for "Honkai Impact" and eagerly anticipating the book itself.

After all, it's a big investment.

Before long, Wanwenjishe opened its doors.

Zhongli abandoned the walnuts in line and headed towards the tavern downstairs from Wanwen Collection House.

The queue of people surged into Wanwenjishe.

"Boss lady, give me four copies of 'Honkai Impact'."

"Would you like the limited edition deluxe animated short film version, or the regular version?"

Is there a difference?

"Limited hardcover edition, includes an animated short film that can be played on a home projector, a large number of illustrations, and a gacha ticket discount coupon, offering 10% off a 10-pull gacha."

"If you're offering a 90% discount on ten consecutive draws, why not just give away a lottery ticket... Give me a limited edition hardcover copy of 'Honkai Impact 3rd' with a short animated film, and then give me three regular copies of 'Honkai Impact 3rd'... Ugh... So expensive."

"Okay, please wait a moment."

"I want three limited edition hardcover copies of 'Honkai Impact 3rd', and... I'll also get a set of 'The Record of Picking Up the Sword in Autumn'."

"Tsk tsk, brother, that must have cost a lot of Mora... The limited edition of Honkai Impact 3rd is quite expensive; it hurts my wallet to buy just one copy."

"It's okay, I'll pay for love. I fell in love with that promotional animation at first sight, so a limited edition hardcover with the animation is a must. I'll recommend one to others, keep one for myself, and keep the other unopened for my collection. I heard that there will be a 'Honkai Impact' merchandise screening tonight. If I like it after watching it, I'll have to go to the merchandise store and buy all the merchandise."

"Brother Fu, please give me fifty moras. Xiangling is in charge of cooking today, and I want to eat at Wanmintang."

"Let's find a teahouse to read together later. I'll treat you to dinner afterwards."

"It wasn't for nothing that I went to the trouble of explaining the settings to you. If you don't understand anything later, feel free to ask me, brother."

After buying the books, the two chatted and laughed as they left, and the next people in line immediately joined them.

For a time, it was bustling with activity.

Meanwhile, at this time, in the tavern downstairs from Wanwenjishe.

"Mr. Zhongli, you've arrived?"
