Genshin Impact: While strolling around Teyvat, I was driven mad by a player.

"It's alright, I didn't get up too late."

"Let's just wait here. They should be arriving at Narukami Taisha soon."

Yae no Miko looked at Aki Natsumi not far away and spoke.

Qiu Nian nodded, then walked to the wooden table, picked up the teapot, and poured himself a cup of hot tea.

Seeing this, the divine child also sat down on the opposite side of the table.

Then, he pulled out a light novel from somewhere and started reading it while drinking tea.

"Think about what this ancient god said to me yesterday."

"An ancient god who existed during the War of the Demon Gods, possessing the ability to erase the power of the abyss."

"If this theme were written into a light novel, it would probably become a huge hit."

Thinking of this, Yae no Miko smiled.

The tea that Sister Ganyu gave me is almost finished.

If I have the chance, I'll go to Liyue and ask for some more.

Qiu Nian, meanwhile, sipped his tea while curiously observing the light novel Yae no Miko was holding.

"Reincarnated as a slime, growing stronger by devouring monsters..."

Qiu Nian looked at the cover of the light novel and muttered to herself with a strange expression.

"So, isn't it quite interesting? Do you want to take a look?"

Yae no Miko looked at Akihime, whose expression was somewhat strange, and asked with a smile.

After saying that, she took out another identical book and handed it to Qiu Nian.

Qiu Nian picked up the light novel and started reading it with great interest.

After looking at it for a while, Qiu Nian discovered that there were even many exquisite illustrations inside.

This is quite different from Liyue's novels, which Qiu Nian found somewhat novel.

As time passed by, little by little.

A priestess then brought Ying and Paimon, along with Tsuchimon and his two apprentices, to Akiyuki and Yae no Miko.

By this time, Yae no Miko had already put away the light novel and the wooden table.

Qiu Nian stood with her hands behind her back, watching Ying and Paimon walk towards her.

"That's Yae no Miko, the pink-haired fox from the PV!"

"And your son-in-law, your son-in-law is actually here too!"

"I knew it! You must have some connection with this pink-haired fox!"

When Snowflake saw Akizuki next to Yae no Miko again, she was very shocked.

[I never expected my precious son-in-law to actually be here with this pink-haired fox! (covers face)]

[Case solved! Qiu Nian has been staying with the pink-haired fox all this time.]

[Why does this Yae no Kami have fox ears? Could he be like a celestial being from Liyue?]

[My dear son-in-law, tell me quickly, what's your relationship with this pink-haired guy? (tears welling up)]

[My dear son-in-law, I'm so glad to see you again! *sighs* (heart eyes)]

"Qiu, Qiu twenty!"

"Why are you here!"

When Ying and Paimon met Qiu Nian, they were both shocked.

"Ha ha..."

"Why can't I be here?"

Qiu Nian looked at Ying and Paimon in front of her and asked with a smile.

"We're still wondering where you went."

"I didn't expect you to have sneaked here so early."

Paimon looked at Akiyuki next to Yae no Miko and asked with his small hands outstretched.

“Mr. Qiu Nian is my honored guest, so of course I invited him here.”

Yae no Miko crossed her arms and looked at Ying and Paimon in front of her, smiling as she spoke.

"You... could you be that Eightfold Lord?"

Ying looked at the Yae no Miko in front of her, placed one hand flat on her chest, and asked.

"Genuine product guaranteed!"

Upon hearing this, Yae nods slightly.

"Mr. Qiu Nian is my very honored guest~"

Upon seeing this, Xuehua repeated Yae no Miko's words in a sarcastic tone.

[This is hilarious! (laughing and crying)]

The smell of vinegar in Snowflake's mouth is about to burst out.

[But this Yaehime is really beautiful (starry-eyed)]

Indeed, those legs are absolutely gorgeous (drooling)

[And why does she sound so dismissive when she talks? (covers face)]

"Uh..."

"I never expected that you, Qiu Nian, would know this person, Ba Chong."

Paimon covered his forehead with one hand, finding it hard to believe.

"Don't worry about that for now."

"The three people you brought must need her help with something, right?"

After Qiu Nian finished speaking, he looked at the white-haired old man who was squatting on the ground with his hands covering his head.

"I've stopped practicing swordsmanship, please, please let me go..."

Tsuchimon held his forehead with both hands, his voice trembling, as if he were afraid of something that didn't exist.

"Master..."

Seeing this, the two disciples standing nearby also looked at their master with worried expressions.

"As you can see, it is the Eightfold Lord."

"Mr. Tsuchimon has always been in this state."

"He seemed to see the people who had lost to him before now surrounding him and hurling insults at him, which caused him great pain."

Inashiro Hotaru looked at Yae no Miko beside her and explained the situation of Tsuchimon.

"Mr. Yashiro."

"My master... he's possessed by an evil spirit, isn't he?"

The female disciple of the Earth Gate looked at the Eightfold Divine Child before her and asked a question.

"Master wasn't like this at all before..."

“My master used to always be smiling, no matter what happened.”

The female disciple of the Earth Gate looked at the Eightfold Divine Child before her and continued speaking.

"Unfortunately."

“There is no evil spirit on your master.”

Yae no Miko remained silent for a moment after hearing this, then shook her head.

"He turned out this way on his own."

"Because he couldn't withstand the immense pressure, he suffered a mental breakdown."

"Mental impairment, followed by madness."

"Like a person falling into the water, struggling frantically, they still plunge into the cold, deep sea."

Yae no Miko looked at Tsuchimichi, who was squatting on the ground, and continued to explain.

Chapter 178 The Pain of Losing a Wish

"As for the cause, I think it must be the loss of the Eye of God."

"Being deprived of the Eye of God means being deprived of one's wishes."

Looking at the earthen gate before him, Yae no Miko continued to explain.

"desire..."

"But if a person of the Eightfold Rank is truly stripped of their wishes, shouldn't Master become an ordinary person?"

Why did he go crazy?

The male disciple was puzzled by what Yae no Miko said.

[Crazyly collecting dialogue from PVs]

"Your sect is called the 'Mirror Still Water Stream,' right?"

Yae Shenzi asked.

The male disciple nodded upon hearing this.

"It's a good name, but this world..."

"Where can one find a truly clear and still mirror?"

"Even gods who have existed for thousands of years have feelings of sadness and grief."
