Genshin Impact: I, the Winter Prince, reign supreme.

Yao Guangxing, who commanded the Thousand Rock Army, immediately said, "I will go and mobilize the troops right away."

……

Zhongli secluded himself in a deep mountain cave near Guyun Pavilion.

Nestled against mountains and beside water, it boasts excellent feng shui and is considered a dragon vein.

The mountains are steep and precipitous, shrouded in mist. A massive magic array connects to the earth's veins, protecting this place. No evil force can approach it, and any trespasser will be obliterated by the magic array.

Su Yu followed Zhong Li to the entrance of the cave.

Zhongli said, "Please come in with me. The Heart of God is at the very bottom of the cave."

"Stop acting, Morax."

"What did you say?"

Su Yu did not answer.

His aura surged, and the three elements of lightning, ice, and wind formed a barrier around his body. At the same time, in the void behind him, the dragon soul of the Primordial Ice Element Dragon King emitted terrifying energy.

"The Prince of Zhidong is indeed worthy of his reputation."

Zhongli turned around, his eyes now a deep crimson.

"When did you see through me?"

"You suddenly appeared at the Northern Bank, while my subordinate [Puppet] Sandone went missing. I guessed that you ultimately failed to overcome the wear and tear and fell into the demonic path. Where is my subordinate?"

Su Yu sent the puppet Sandone to keep watch, but Sandone suddenly lost contact. He immediately realized that Zhongli was in trouble. Fortunately, he could still sense Sandone's aura, so at least he was not dead.

Zhongli had been in seclusion, trying to fight against the wear and tear, but he had obviously failed and his body had been taken over by the evil thoughts within him.

The Zhongli before me is still the same Rock King Emperor, but his good thoughts are suppressed and evil thoughts have taken over the body, which is one of the serious harms caused by wear and tear.

The demonized Zhongli revealed an evil smile and said, "Her name is Sandone? She looks just like Gui Zhong. Don't worry about her safety. She reminds me of the past, of many people and things. I won't take her life, but you won't be able to take her away either."

"Then you should ask my fist if it's willing."

With a roar, the demonized Zhongli unleashed a rock spear that flew out of the seawater of Guyun Pavilion and landed in his hand.

"Last time, we tested each other at the Wanwen Collection Auction Hall and ended in a draw. Today, let's settle the true score. The heavens move—"

"Come on, Morax, let's see just how capable you really are after you've turned evil."

Su Yu was not to be outdone and engaged in a life-or-death duel with the demonized Zhong Li.

The earth-shattering battle soon caused strange phenomena in the heavens and earth. The originally clear sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds, and torrential rain poured down.

The entire land of Liyue seemed to tremble.

Within Liyue Harbor, enormous waves crashed against the embankment, creating towering billows.

Many merchant ships that did not have time to return to port to take shelter capsized instantly in the vast ocean.

……

Mondstadt, the land where the winds rise.

Jean, the Grand Master of the Knights of Favonius, stood under a lush tree and prayed, as always, looking up at the sky.

Suddenly, many fallen leaves began to fall from all around.

Qin opened her eyes and was surprised to find that the whole tree seemed to be withering, with leaves constantly falling off.

"Strange, the tree's life force is draining away. What happened?"

Jean immediately rushed back to Mondstadt.

Venti, who had been sleeping on the treetop with hazy, drunken eyes, suddenly sat up, gazing towards Liyue, and murmured, "The elemental flow of the ley lines has become disordered, and the root of the problem seems to be in Liyue. Something happened to Morax... Could it be that he's fighting with Prince Winter?"

Prince Winter is currently on a visit to six countries and is currently in Liyue. Venti naturally connected the two.

But upon closer reflection, I rejected my own idea.

Morax and Prince Winter are both god-level powerhouses with great wisdom; they probably won't make a move easily.

If these two were to fight, Liyue would be plunged into chaos and death.

"No, I have to go and join in the fun."

Venti made up his mind and headed to Liyue.

……

Inazuma, with a heart devoted to the Pure Land.

Lei, who was sitting cross-legged in meditation, raised an eyebrow and made a barely audible sound.

"Morax, are you fighting a demon?"

"The strongest ice element in the world has collided with the strongest rock element, and the resulting aftershocks have even affected the ley lines of Inazuma. If this continues, it will inevitably affect the elemental stability of Inazuma and cause many natural disasters."

After some thought, Lei Yingdong left the Pure Land of One Heart and went to Narukami Shrine.

Almost simultaneously, Raiden Shogun of Tenshukaku sensed Raiden's presence and teleported to Narukami Taisha with his naginata.

"You've broken the rules."

General Thunder and Lightning blocked the movie with a menacing air.

"There was a reason for leaving the Pure Land of One Heart. You should have noticed it by now, the disordered ley lines have seriously affected Inazuma."

General Thunder said indifferently, "I will handle it. Now, return to the Pure Land of One Heart."

The program within General Thunder's body absolutely forbids Thunder Movies from appearing outside the Pure Land of One Heart.

"How do you plan to handle this?"

General Thunder replied, "This... I haven't decided yet; I need to hear the High Priestess's advice. What about you?"

Lei Movie said, "I think the same way."

While Lei Yingdian and Lei Dian General are unparalleled in martial prowess, when it comes to handling crises, they still need the wisdom of Yae no Miko.

Whenever I encounter something I'm hesitant about, I usually come to Narukami Taisha.

"Oh dear, ladies, please have some mercy and stop fighting in my bathroom."

At this moment, Yae no Miko poked half her head out of the large bathtub.

General Raiden put down his naginata and snorted coldly: "The Divine Child has quite the refined taste, bathing in broad daylight."

"This isn't an ordinary bath, it's a medicinal bath. His Highness taught me how to do it when he came to Inazuma. Can you smell the aroma of herbs in the air?"

General Thunder and Thunder Movie looked at each other, their minds unable to process what was happening.

When Prince Zhidong taught the divine child the method of medicinal bathing, when did their relationship become so close?

"Aren't you two very envious? If you want it, just let me know and I'll tell you the recipe."

Lei Yingdian said, "It's just a medicinal bath, what's there to envy?"

"This is no ordinary medicinal bath. It's His Highness's exclusive secret recipe, using over 500 kinds of medicinal herbs. Long-term bathing in this bath not only nourishes the hair and skin but also has the amazing effect of relaxing muscles and promoting blood circulation."

Lei Yingdong cleared his throat and said, "Divine Child, a god-level battle has broken out in Liyue. I plan to go and take a look. Since the Cataclysm of Kanria more than 500 years ago, there has never been a god-level battle on the continent of Teyvat."

Yae no Miko stepped out of the bathtub, her figure slender and graceful, her wet pink hair clinging to her skin, making her alluring and captivating.

"Go if you want to."

"You don't object?"

Yae no Miko chuckled and said, "If you don't stop this great battle, the Divine Cherry Tree will wither and die."

Because the Divine Cherry Tree is also connected to the earth's veins, Yae no Miko noticed the abnormality as soon as the great battle in Liyue began.

When gods wage war against each other, the damage to the terrain is considered minor; more serious consequences include disrupting and affecting the flow of the earth's veins.

The earth beneath Inazuma is sealed with many evil spirits. The annual Great Purification of the Divine Cherry Blossoms is a cleansing ritual that uses the power of the earth's veins to exorcise these evil spirits.

If the laws governing the earth's veins are broken, it will inevitably affect the Divine Cherry Tree, so she absolutely supports Thor going to stop the war.

General Thunder asked, "Then between the two of us, who should go?"

Lei said, "Of course I'll go, you stay behind in Inazuma."

"Impossible! I'll keep an eye on you to prevent you from suffering any damage or doing anything that would tarnish your status as Thor."

The two fought over it.

Yae Shenzi smiled and said:

"Stop arguing, you two go together. This battle is extraordinary, you can feel it, right? The extremely powerful ice elemental power, and the rock elemental power of the Rock King Emperor. It's probably the Winter Prince and the Rock King Emperor fighting. Both of them are at the God Realm, and the sudden outbreak of a great battle must have a complicated reason. The two of you going together will be able to look out for each other."

After arguing for more than half an hour, Lei Yingdian and Lei Dian General finally compromised and agreed to go to Liyue together according to Yae no Kamiko's plan.

But when he looked back, he found that Yae no Miko had already disappeared.

Lei Yingdong sighed softly, both amused and exasperated, and said, "This divine child took advantage of our argument and set off alone."

"She's really impatient."

General Thunder said with a hint of helplessness.

“Now that the divine child has left, the two of us will guard the house. These are turbulent times, and Inazuma cannot be without the divine presence.”

Lei Films and General Lei Dian finally reached an agreement.

Neither of them left immediately. Instead, they used their supreme divine power to deduce Prince Dong's complete medicinal bath recipe based on the remaining herbs in the bath tub.

……

The top of Sumeru City.

The secluded and tranquil Jingshan Palace.

Wearing a bright green dress and with her toes peeking out, the little auspicious grass king Naxida awoke curled up from among the flowers.

Just now, she had another dream, and the phrase "The world...forget me..." kept lingering in her mind.

During the day, she uses the knowledge she gains through the "void" to create a vast dream world at night.

In her dreams, she is surrounded by animals and flowers, and forgets her troubles and loneliness.

However, just now, strange fluctuations came from the World Tree.

After carefully contemplating it, Nasita opened her eyes, her green pupils filled with surprise.
