Chapter 910: Xianyun’s shock

[Ding! It was detected that the host has changed the plot of “Genshin Impact”.]

[Successfully changed the plot by 15.4% by making the Teleportation Gate technology very popular in Liyue, and making other countries in Teyvat want it. You have also made Zhongli’s identity suspected and revealed early to certain characters. It changed many future storylines.]

[Congratulations, you got—]

“What is this? Are you sick, Miss System?”

Miss System paused for a moment and asked her host.

[Why do you think I’m sick, host? ]

“You didn’t say anything about the plot changes that happened because of the things I did to the protagonist and the heroines.”

[With all due respect, does what you did to them this time have anything to do with the plot?]

“Hmm…” Eiji held his chin with a thoughtful expression. “I’m sure it has a little to do.”

Miss System rudely denied.

[No, it has nothing to do with it at all.]

“As I suspected, you’re sick, Miss System.”

[The only person who is sick here is you, host.]

The two people argued for a few minutes, Leme listening to their bickering boredly.

Her host and Miss Neighbor didn’t want to admit that they were both sick.

I mean, has either of them looked normal so far?

Leme shook her head.

“Alright, I’m sick and you’re normal, Miss System. Are you satisfied? Continue with the reward announcement.”

As a true gentleman, Eiji decided to give in to his woman.

Miss System snorted.

[You forget I know what you’re thinking. But, I’ll pretend not to know because I’m tired of arguing with you, host.]

“…..” Eiji.

Before he could say anything, Miss System slapped him with the screen that showed his reward.

The screen was too close to his face!

He had to step back to see properly.

What he saw was a little surprising.

[Congratulations, you got the Otsutsuki Primogenitor Bloodline.]

*Boom!*

The volume of Chakra inside his body instantly increased until he could not suppress it as usual inside his body.

In the process, the space around him exploded. To prevent the impact from spreading, Eiji quickly controlled the chakra inside his body by force.

When he was leveling up many times, he would not let his oppression spread further than five meters with him as the center.

Otherwise, the Jade Chamber would be destroyed and everyone inside would die under the pressure of his chakra.

He only made the floor beneath his feet crack when he was concentrating while closing his eyes.

He could feel the changes in the blood, bones, flesh and organs inside his body.

Since this was a product of the Miss System, his new bloodline smoothly merged with his other bloodlines. He undoubtedly grew stronger. After all, he had the blood of the Otsutsuki Primogenitor which was even much purer than Kaguya Otsutsuki and the other Otsutsuki in the Naruto universe.

Now, all Otsutsuki should kneel down and call him Ancestor!

“What is this energy?! Not Geo, not Anemo… this is an energy that doesn’t exist in Teyvat! And this pressure… can probably only be matched by the will of the High Heavens—the beings of Celestia!”

Perched above the clouds using her adeptus technique or art while hiding the air of her existence, a creature that looked like a crane said that with shock and fear in her heart.

Her identity was one of the Adeptus in Liyue, and the reason why she was stalking Eiji at this moment was…

Before that, let’s go back to a few hours ago.

When Eiji and Morax were fighting.

On the desolate peak of Mount Aocang, Xianyun, also known as Cloud Retainer, was sipping tea while enjoying the view.

Suddenly, the jade cup in her hand shook violently. The atmosphere in all of Liyue was suddenly heavy, oppressed by waves of extremely pure Geo energy—energy that belonged to only one person who should have been gone.

“This vibration… the will of such a powerful stone? It can’t be! Geo Archon’s power exploded near the Golden House? Didn’t he already lose his life during the Rite of Descension?!”

Wasting no time, Xianyun transformed into a giant crane and shot through the clouds at a speed that split the skies of Jueyun Karst. Her heart was racing between disbelief and overwhelming hope.

How could she not?

She thought the leader of the Adeptus in Liyue, Morax had come back to life!

In the ruins of Ye Chen’s house.

A while had passed since Eiji left. However, there were still people cleaning up the mess including Zhongli and Ganyu.

Xianyun landed with a loud thud amidst the rubble, dust flying all around her. Ignoring Millelith’s military troops who were surprised by the arrival of an Adeptus, her sharp eyes immediately swept the area.

Immediately, her gaze fell on Zhongli whose clothes were slightly torn from the previous battle. Beside him, there was also one of his disciples, Ganyu. She was writing a report with a slight blush on her cheeks.

Xianyun wanted to ask what Ganyu was thinking? She didn’t even notice that her master was standing not far from her.

She seemed to be in a good mood.

But putting that aside, she created a wind barrier that isolated the three of them before turning her gaze on Zhongli.

She suspected him because she sensed a trace of Geo element from him.

“You… That aura came from here! Who are you really? Are you the one who unleashed such a powerful Geo element?

Hearing her voice, Ganyu gasped and looked at her in surprise. “Master, you’re here!?”

“Ganyu, glad you finally realized my arrival. But be quiet for a moment, I’m talking to the person standing next to you.”

“…..” Ganyu felt embarrassed for having ignored her master for a moment. She obeyed her orders like a good disciple.

Zhongli frowned. Ganyu could still be fooled, but one of the Adeptus like Xianyun?

He knew it was difficult for him to fool her. So, he decided to stare at Xianyun with a calmness and gaze that was very familiar to him.

“Long time no see, Xianyun. You are still as impulsive as ever when it comes to me and Liyue’s safety.”

Xianyun was stunned and her voice trembled. “This voice… that boring way of speaking of yours… Morax?! You’re still alive? How is that possible?! The entire Liyue is mourning for you, and you’re standing here pretending to be an ordinary human?!”

Xianyun stepped forward, she almost wanted to pull Zhongli’s shirt collar to make sure this wasn’t an illusion.

Ganyu was dumbfounded by what her master said. If it was true, Zhongli… No, Lord Rex Lapis had fooled her!

He was as strong as a Stone God, but that was because he himself was a Stone God!

Zhongli sighed. “Xianyun, calm down. I am still here, but my contract as Geo Archon, Morax, has expired. I choose to walk among humans as Zhongli.”

Xianyun was silent for a moment and remembered something. “But that fight earlier! I felt someone suppressing your power! Who dared to make you unleash your power to that extent?”

Zhongli casually replied. “A young man… his name is Eiji Seiya. He has enough power to make me serious for the first time in a long time. But he’s gone to the Jade Chamber now, he has a very good relationship with Tianquan of Liyue Qixing (Ningguang).”

Xianyun still looked shocked, but slowly she calmed down and tried to restore her dignity as an Adeptus, especially in front of her disciple.

She didn’t know her leader, Zhongli was a little anxious now. “Xianyun, I have one request. Do not reveal my current identity to the other Adeptus or the people of Liyue. Let ’Morax/Rex Lapis’ remain a rested legend. Consider this a private contract between us.”

Xianyun refrained from rolling her eyes. However, she was relieved that Morax was actually alive and snorting. “Hmph! You always make things difficult with your contracts. Alright, for Liyue’s peace of mind, I’ll keep this a secret. But don’t expect me not to see you again to demand further explanation from you… and from that guy named Eiji!”

Zhongli was also relieved that the matter was resolved. “Thank you, Xianyun. I’ll treat you to a cup of tea at my favorite place next time.”

Xianyun didn’t reply, she just stared at Zhongli for a few seconds before flying back towards the mountains.

Ganyu knew her master seemed to be upset, and the culprit was… she glanced at Zhongli awkwardly and bowed to him.

“Lord Rex Lapis, please forgive my rudeness before!”

“You haven’t done anything wrong, Ganyu. And just call me Zhongli. Just like Xianyun, I hope you will also keep my identity a secret.”

Zhongli was a little helpless looking at Ganyu’s posture, there were quite a few people who were watching them from a distance.

Ganyu gasped and nodded with a serious expression. “Understood, Lord… I mean Sir Zhongli.”

“…..” Zhongli.

Should he make a contract with Ganyu so that he wouldn’t worry about her accidentally telling others?

Not long after.

Instead of returning to her residence, Xianyun couldn’t help but be curious about a young man who was able to make her leader fight seriously.

So, she detoured towards the Jade Chamber in the sky. She didn’t know what Eiji looked like, but since Morax said it was a young man.

Among all the people in the Jade Chamber, her attention was naturally drawn to a youth with silver hair and red eyes who was extremely handsome…

Just by looking at him, she felt he was different from the people in Liyue or even Teyvat.

She decided to observe him longer to see how he interacted with Ningguang and the Acting Grand Master of Mondstadt, Jean. Xianyun even saw how Eiji and Jean flirted with each other.

From their conversation, she knew that the young man who seemed to have a good relationship with those beautiful women was Eiji.

’Still, is such a young man really as strong as Morax says?’

Xianyun doubted, although Eiji’s appearance was like a God among men, he acted like a human.

He wasn’t like her, Morax and the other adepts who were quite rigid in interacting with humans.

That was why she hesitated.

However, that doubt was dispelled when she suddenly saw Eiji standing in the hallway alone and a few seconds later, she felt an oppression that reminded her of Heaven’s Will or also known as Heavenly Principles.

Although Eiji seemed to be trying to suppress his oppression, Xianyun who was an Adeptus could still feel waves of energy that surpassed the limits of Vision or even Gnosis in the air.

Such powerful energy could flatten the entire Liyue if released without any restraint.

Xianyun was panicked and frightened of course.

A Heavenly Envoy pretending to be a human in Liyue?

Did that make sense?

Even so, Xianyun couldn’t think of anyone else that powerful besides them.

Back to the present—Eiji must have realized the existence of someone who had been stalking him for a long time.

In his eyes that had automatically transformed into a golden Rinne Sharingan, the adeptus art Xianyun used to hide her figure was useless.

He could see the forms of a crane and a beautiful woman in her simultaneously.

So, he recognized her and turned to her after stabilizing the flow of chakra in his body.

“Stalking someone is an unusual hobby for an Adeptus, isn’t it, Xianyun?”

Xianyun gasped in surprise, she almost fell off the cloud and reflexively perched on top of the Jade Chamber’s railing. “You… How can you realize me and know who I am?! Sure enough, you are an entity from the sky, a Celestia Envoy! It is also obvious from your original appearance that you are now showing. What is your purpose for coming to Liyue and pretending to be human? You even had a fight with Morax not long ago.”

“…?” Eiji had a question mark on the top of his head.

Xianyun had clearly misunderstood him.

But speaking of appearances, how did he look now? He glanced at the system interface to look in the mirror and was slightly surprised.

His silver hair had turned snow-white and extended to his waist. On his forehead appeared a mysterious small water drop-shaped mark. His skin paled with an elegant pale light, and his Rinne-Sharingan eyes were now golden.

[Damn, I’ve become even more handsome in my Otsutsuki Primogenitor form! I’m afraid… With this kind of appearance, all the women in the world of Teyvat can’t help falling in love with me.]

[When that happens, I can only disappoint them. Except for the heroines of the original works or those who catch my eye, there’s no way I’ll accept any random woman in my harem.]

[I’m sorry.]

The heroines: “….”

Putting aside Eiji’s narcissism that they have long known.

But what does he look like now?

They were all curious.

“There seems to be a misunderstanding here. First, I know who you are not because I am a Heavenly Envoy.”

Eiji knew the so-called Heavenly Envoys referred to the four high-level entities in Genshin Impact.

They were stronger than the Archons, and one of them was even the culprit who sealed Lumine for hundreds of years and separated her from her brother, Aether.

In the original work, they were also known as the Four Shades. The four beings were part of the “Heavenly Principles” which referred to beings with the highest power in Celestia—Primordial One (Phanes). She created the Four Shades from herself to help her manage the basic aspects of the world (Time, Space, Life, and Death). Therefore, they act as the official representatives of the Celestia Principle in Teyvat.

That was why they were also called Heavenly Envoys.

To be honest, Eiji had almost forgotten about their existence. Under normal circumstances, one of them should have taken action when he fought with an Archon and made quite a ruckus in their territory.

But no, they seemed to ignore him.

There must be a reason for that.

Let’s think about that later.

“You are not a Heavenly Messenger? Then, who are you?” In her giant crane form, Xianyun narrowed her eyes. She clearly did not believe what the creature in front of her was saying.

“This conversation will be quite long. How about you transform into a human first so as not to attract too much attention if other people see us? I’ll do that too.”

After Eiji said that, the appearance changed again. His hair shortened, his skin color became normal white. The ripples and tomoe patterns in his eyes also disappeared, now he only had a pair of golden eyes that were quite common in Teyvat.

He returned to being human-like with an appearance that was still as handsome as a Male God.

Still, what he said was just an excuse. He just wanted to see Xianyun’s human form in person.

“Your words… make sense.”

Xianyun agreed, her body glowing with golden light and she switched to her human mode. In that form, she was a beautiful bespectacled woman with long black hair that faded into a turquoise color at the ends, she recalled it in a ponytail style with a golden hair ornament that resembled a bird’s crest.

And she was wearing a tight emerald green bodysuit. Because of that, her wavy curves including her large breasts and plump ass were clearly visible.

Eiji’s eyes lit up.

“Xianyun, in this form… you are very beautiful, like a fairy with red-rimmed glasses.”

“Don’t change the topic!”

Xianyun folded her hands under her breasts while fixing the position of her glasses.

Her expression was very serious, she was not affected by his sweet words. Unfortunately, since she was an Adeptus who usually lived a solitary life in the mountains, she had little understanding of romance between men and women.

Such a woman…

It made Eiji even more interested in conquering her.

[I’m not surprised at all.]

Me too, Miss System.

[Hehe, catch her, our king!]

I’ll definitely do it, Leme!

“Secondly, don’t lump me in with the people on that rigid flying island. My standards are a bit higher than theirs. My name is Eiji Seiya. Where I come from, in the center of a galaxy far away from this star system, another universe to be exact. I am known as the Dragon Emperor and Hegemony Demon God. I know you because of one of my abilities (Rasiel) which makes me omniscient to some extent.”

Miss System: Why add Demon to your Hegemony God title?

Eiji: Simple, it’s cool.

Xianyun widened her eyes and took a step back as if she was frightened by Eiji’s true identity.

“You are… Dragon Emperor and Hegemony Demon God from another universe? Why would an evil being like the Demon God come to Teyvat?”

Her voice trembled when she said that.

[Xianyun… No, are the Adeptus other than you racist too? I said I’m the Hegemony Demon God, I didn’t say that I’m an evil being who might invade Teyvat.]

Eiji sounded a little helpless.

Many of the heroines living in his house laughed.

Still, Xianyun? From the name, it was clearly a beautiful woman.

Eiji must be trying to woo her.

“No, just because I call myself the Demon God, doesn’t mean I’m evil. Xianyun, don’t be so impulsive.”

“You also called me that…”

Xianyun pouted. Was she really as impulsive as Morax and Eiji said?

She was just too worried about Liyue’s safety!

“As for my purpose for coming to Teyvat? I didn’t come here to colonize, let alone sign up to be Celestia’s boring envoy. I was just… on vacation. Enjoying tea in Liyue, establishing good relationships with beautiful women like Ningguang, Jean, Lisa and many more beautiful women in the future.”

Eiji said that honestly and with his god-level acting skills, anyone would not think he was lying.

However, Xianyun was still surprised and a little disbelieving. “On vacation? A God-level entity from another universe… coming all the way here just to vacation and tease beautiful women? You think I’ll believe it?”

“Of course, you also know that for beings like Gods or long-lived entities… They tend to do strange things to entertain themselves. For example Morax, he pretended to die just because he wanted to retire and live a human life for fun in Liyue.”

“…!” Xianyun opened and closed her mouth.

She couldn’t argue. Especially when remembering that Morax promised that he would treat her to a cup of tea at his favorite place.

After changing his identity into a human, he seemed to be having fun.

If Morax was here, he should at least be a little embarrassed for hearing what Eiji said about the reason why he chose to retire.

…

A/N: There is a slight change in the terminology of the Fourd Shades, which is intentional. In this story, I also decided to make the Primordial One a woman.
