Genshin Impact: A Martial Arts Master's Journey to Teyvat

Pai Meng: "Okay, Lingkong, let's go find the frozen tree."

Lingkong: "You mean you only offer a bag of beef jerky and want us to take you to find the frozen tree?"

Xiangling: "Hey, this is beef jerky that I made using my own secret recipe. I only have one pack on hand, and you can't buy it normally.

And you don’t have to go, just let Xiao Paimeng take me there.”

Pai Meng: "That won't work. I'm Lingkong's guide, I can't just run around."

"Is that so?" Xiangling looked disappointed.

Lingkong laughed and said, "My plan failed."

Xiangling: "When you guys come to Liyue Harbor, I'll make you some delicious food and treat you to a meal for free, is that ok? Master Lingkong, as a master, you will surely be willing to help a little girl like me, right?"

Pai Meng: "It's delicious! Lingkong, let's help her this time."

Lingkong laughed and said, "You are not willing to give even a single Mora, but you are willing to give us all the beef jerky. I don't know whether to say you are generous or stingy."

Xiangling said embarrassedly: "I have spent all my money, and only have enough money to go back to Liyue.

But I really want to use the leaves of the frozen tree as food, Master Lingkong, I know you are a good person, so please help me."

Xiangling waved her arms in the air and acted coquettishly.

Lingkong saw her getting closer and closer, and was afraid that his chastity would be in danger: "Forget it, let's go and see the frozen tree. But let me make it clear first, it may be dangerous, and I can't guarantee your safety."

Xiangling: "No problem, just take me there."

Xiangling thought that with Pai Meng leading the way, finding a frozen tree would be an easy task.

Unexpectedly, Paimeng took them in a straight line without any detours.

They had to climb mountains and wade through water, and also be attacked by various monsters. Fortunately, Xiangling had also practiced this.

Xiangling: "Wow, this river is so wide, how can we cross it?"

In front of them was a river three hundred meters wide.

Lingkong: "Use Qinggong to get over there."

Xiangling: "How is this possible? Who can breathe so long?"

Lingkong: "I'll give you two choices. Either I carry you over, or I hold you in my arms."

Xiangling: "Then carry me over there." It felt a bit weird to be carried over there.

Lingkong carried Xiangling on his back and ran to the other side in one breath.

Xiang Ling looked at him as if he were a monster: "You can do this, are you a human being?"

Lingkong: "I carried you here out of kindness, and you said I'm not a human?"

Xiangling: "That's not what I meant, haha, Lingkong Master. I meant that you look like a god."

After walking for a while, Pai Meng led them to the foot of a cliff: "Go up."

Xiangling opened her eyes wide: "How do we get up so high?"

Pai Meng: "Just fly up, isn't it simple?"

Lingkong: "No, I'll carry you up."

"I can do it. Don't look down on me." Xiangling held her breath. She must not let him look down on her. We were of the same age, so why should she let him look down on her?

Xiangling used her Qinggong skills to fly halfway and tried to grab the cliff, but she still missed and fell down. Xiangling screamed in shock.

He hugged Xiangling's slender waist and flew directly to the top of the cliff.

Lingkong: "You can't jump up, but you're still trying to be brave. If I weren't there, you would have fallen to your death."

Xiangling: "Oh my god, I was so scared. Fortunately you saved me."

Lingkong: "No wonder you sneaked out. If I were your family, I wouldn't let you go out alone."

Xiangling: "Hey, I still have you."

Lingkong was speechless. Was this a sign of being bold or not fearing death?

Pai Meng took them past a hillbilly camp.

The hill people warmly welcomed them, but Lingkong had no choice but to slaughter the entire hill village with Xiangling.

Xiangling retracted her two swords. She was quite satisfied with her performance just now. At least the move of killing the hillbillies was very cool.

Lingkong also dropped the branch in his hand. Using a sword to deal with the Hillilks seemed to be overestimating them.

Xiangling: "You were using a branch just now?"

Lingkong: "Yeah, what's wrong?"

Xiangling felt that she was not handsome at all.

Lingkong: "It's getting dark. It looks like we'll have to camp."

"Ah? Camping?" Xiangling didn't know what to do when camping.

The Hillilite camp was dirty and smelly, so Lingkong didn't plan to camp there. He found an open space far away from the Hillilite camp.

Paimeng conjured up a tent, which stunned Xiangling: "Where did you hide the tent? Why did you take it out all of a sudden?"

Pai Meng: "I have storage space, which can hold a lot of things."

Xiangling: "Oh my goodness, this is much better than Guoba."

Lingkong: "Please keep this secret for us, Miss Xiangling, and don't spread it around."

Xiangling: "Don't worry, I'm keeping my mouth shut."

Lingkong set up the tent: "There is a lot of space inside, enough for two people to rest."

Xiangling: "No need, I can just meditate outside." Xiangling felt embarrassed to share a tent with a boy for the whole night.

There was a loud thunder in the sky, Xiangling was startled, and a light rain began to fall.

Xiangling laughed dryly: "I'd better squeeze in with you."

In the tent, the two sat cross-legged facing each other. Pai Meng took out dry food and water, as well as a few fluorescent stones for lighting.

Xiangling: "Lingkong, do you camp often? I see you look familiar with it."

Lingkong: "It's okay. Camping is a necessary skill when traveling around the world. If you are determined to travel around the world, you will inevitably have to camp. It will be sad if you come out empty-handed."

Xiangling: "Well, I will pay attention next time."

"Please leave some for me. Did you eat all that big bag of beef jerky?" Lingkong snatched the paper bag from Paimeng's hand. There were only a dozen pieces of beef jerky left in it.

Xiangling: "Lingkong, you are so powerful, who is your master? Are you a disciple of an immortal?"

Lingkong: "Are there immortals in this world?"

Xiangling: "Hasn't there always been legends about immortals?"

Lingkong: "I am not a disciple of an immortal, and I don't have a master either."

Xiangling: "How is that possible? Then where did you acquire all these martial arts skills?"

Lingkong: "Self-taught."

Xiangling: "Forget it. I understand. You have your own secrets, too."

"There's nothing to hide." Ling Kong said, "When I was a kid, I was playing on the edge of a cliff and I accidentally fell off."

Xiangling: "I know. The immortal saved you."

Lingkong: "There is no immortal, but I fell into a paradise, where there are beautiful mountains and rivers and simple folk customs.

The villagers told me that if I wanted to get out, I had to learn the martial arts on the stone wall.

I studied year after year, and finally I learned it, and left the paradise. When I wanted to look for it again, I couldn’t find it anymore.”

Xiangling listened intently: "This must be fate. The gods are helping you, Lingkong, you are so lucky."

No one believed the truth, so he had to make up a story. Lingkong couldn't remember which listener Xiangling was. He told this story at least a dozen times.
