Chapter 106: Day 4 of Wandering in Liyue
"But even though we already know its methods, we still cannot relax and must prepare for the worst."
Yan Fei was only excited for a moment, then her sad expression returned.
The most critical thing now is that they have no way of contacting the outside world, otherwise no matter whether it is the immortals or... they would not watch them being trapped here.
"By the way, Ye Lan, you said before that you had something to do in the Layered Abyss. What exactly is it?"
"..."
"I'll go see how Xiao is recovering."
Shui Qingli took a step back and said, then turned and left. Although he knew about the Layered Rock Abyss and some of the secrets from five hundred years ago, he had no intention of staying to explain.
These things can only be discovered by yourself.
Looking at his back, Ye Lan breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mr. Qingli is not a bad person. In fact, you can trust him."
Yan Fei saw her attitude and explained.
"I know. When I saw him working with the immortals, I had already let down my guard against him. But he is not from Liyue after all, and the matter of the Layered Abyss cannot be told to outsiders."
Ye Lan said with a serious face.
"Every word that follows must be kept in your heart and must not be told to anyone else, otherwise..."
There was a hint of murderous intent in her eyes, which clearly expressed her attitude.

When Shui Qingli came to Xiao's side, he saw that he had opened his eyes, revealing a pair of gilded pupils that were brighter than the clouds in the sky.
"You discussed how to find a way out."
He was speaking in a declarative manner, not a question.
"Of course this needs to be discussed. Don't underestimate the wisdom of mortals, Great Sage who conquers demons."
Shui Qingli summoned some clean water to clear the ground beside him, then sat down as well, but in the direction of his injured right arm.
"Put your hand out. I'll try to heal your injuries."
"...You also know how to heal?"
It's not that Xiao didn't consider teaching him magic, but Shui Qingli rejected all other elemental forces except water elemental force, and magic most of the time requires the mixed use of multiple forces.
"Water has the effect of cleaning and healing. Besides, I'm just trying it. If it doesn't work, you'll have to bear it on your own."
Xiao thought about it for a moment, not knowing whether there would be another battle on the road ahead, and that Fushe’s undead might appear in front of him again, so he acquiesced and stretched out his hand.
Then for the first time he knew what it meant to be useful, but not much.
Shui Qingli pressed on his shoulder and slowly injected elemental power. The pure water slowly gathered and wrapped around the wound, stopping the green blood-like mist that kept overflowing, but the wound did not heal.
"Hmm...it should be the power mixed in the turbulent space that attached to your body, causing the wound to be unable to heal. Maybe you can only expel it yourself. I don't know much about the power of space."
No space can trap invisible water, so Prince Water does not need to study the power of space too deeply. Moreover, the Ye Luoli Wonderland has dream space, mirror space, the time space of the Time Princess, and the space of the Pavilion Master of Lingxi Pavilion. Even Prince Gold has his own fighting battlefield space.
It seems that every fairy can use some power of space, but there is no fairy who truly and purely masters the power of space. Even Fairy Xin Ling only masters the power of barrier.
This inevitably made him wonder, perhaps the power of space should be a... forbidden power.
"That's all."
Xiao closed his eyes again, and this time he really took a rest.
His energy consumption is quite high and he has to recover every second.
Shui Qingli stopped talking and quietly closed his eyes to rest. He was not in a very good mood as he had just been tricked by this space.
It was unknown how long it took before Xiao regained consciousness. The wounds on his body had mostly recovered over time. Yan Fei, who had been looking at this side, spoke.
"Kong! The Great Sage who conquers demons has awakened."
Paimon had also recovered a lot from his fatigue and walked over with Kong.
"Are you ok?"
Kong squatted down and looked at Xiao with concern.
"…It's okay, don't worry."
Shui Qingli opened her eyes and looked at him speechlessly.
He remembered that when he was clearing Xiao’s karma before, he had asked the same question. How did Xiao answer him at that time?
"The body of an immortal is different from that of a mortal. It recovers very quickly. You don't have to worry too much."
Look at what he said to Sora again. Both his tone and meaning are much gentler than they were back then. Double standard, right?
"Did something happen while I was sleeping? They actually came over to our side."
Paimeng asked curiously. She remembered that Xiao and Shui Qingli disappeared directly at the entrance of the secret realm.
"I was given instructions and found a way to come here."
The one who answered her question was Xiao, who was sitting on the ground. His tone was indifferent, and he didn't seem to care.
"Thanks to Yan Fei's cleverness."
Kong praised, and Yan Fei felt a little embarrassed.
"Yes, if our Great Sage had been smarter and knew to use my power when penetrating space instead of rushing over, he might not have been hurt."
Shui Qingli said with a smile.
He is the water element itself, and he will not be hurt if he turns into water. However, when Xiao heard that Kong was in danger, he didn't even have time to think and rushed over directly.
The kind that didn't even ask for his opinion. If Shui Qingli hadn't reacted quickly and caught him, he would have been left alone in a daze.
Double standard immortal, haha.
Shui Qingli refused to admit that he was jealous. He thought that when he was a traveler, Xiaobao treated him the same way.
But he is just pure now? I still feel a little sour when I think about it.
"..."
The atmosphere at the scene was silent for a moment, but Yan Fei was quick to react and quickly changed the subject.
"By the way, Great Sage Conquering the Demons and Mr. Qingli, can you tell us what happened to you before?"
"No need to be so serious, just call me Xiao."
Xiao stood up and began to explain the purpose of his coming here. He was looking for a Yaksha named Fushe.
All information will be inferred from the mutual exchange of intelligence, especially the legal consultant who is best at unraveling the mystery. She is the person who least believes in coincidences.
"The invasion of the Kanreya monsters, the fierce battle at Layer Rock, and Ye Lan's ancestors... I always feel that everything seems to be connected."
"There are many coincidences in the world, but not all of them are so coincidental. Could these things have anything to do with the magic weapon Taiweiyi Pan mentioned in the will?"
If the Yaksha that Xiao is looking for also disappeared in the fierce battle in Layer Rock, could it be the same as Ye Lan’s ancestor?
No... maybe they disappeared together. During that period, all Liyue compatriots who participated in the battle would help each other, otherwise the name of the Nameless Yaksha would not have been spread.
(There's really nothing much to write. If I hadn't considered that there are still people reading this, I might have already cut the story. The next part of Xumi needs to be carefully thought out. I need to bypass the whole plot and write other stories. Hmm... It's so difficult.)
