Genshin Impact: Return of the Immortal Realm starts with being chased by Shadow

And then, because of Hu Tao's noise, Lian Zhen was also woken up.

After she opened her eyes, she saw this picture:

Lin Jinnian kept comforting the girl in his arms, while Hu Zhaigong looked on and snickered as if watching a show.

Hu Zhai Palace, Lin Jinnian, and... Hu Tao?

The three people appeared together to form this scene, which made Zhen wonder if he was dazzled.

How is this going?Isn't she already...dead?

The real memory still remains in the conscious space after bidding farewell to the shadow.

And her last remaining consciousness should have dissipated with the planting of Shen Ying... What is the situation now?

Compared to Hutao, he really seems much calmer.

She wondered if this was in a dream, or another fictional space, or... Lin Jinnian "resurrected" them?

At this time, Zhen suddenly saw Hu Zhaigong blinking and winking at him beside him, as if he didn't want to disturb the other two people.

So she leaned over and listened...

At the same time, Lin Jinnian was whispering to Hu Tao.

"Lin Jinnian, do you know? It almost scared me to death at first... I, I thought you were dead too... You obviously promised me that you would live well..."

Hu Tao still refused to let go of Lin Jinnian's hand, but her mood had become much more stable and she was able to communicate normally.

"……what?"

Hu Tao's words confused Lin Jinnian, and he extracted the key information contained in the words.

"Hu Tao, could it be said that you are actually... really alive now?"

"Ok!"

Hu Tao raised his head, looked at Lin Jinnian with his plum blossom eyes, and nodded with great certainty.

She had spent a lot of time in Wuwangpo during those decades, and she knew the boundary between life and death very clearly, and it was impossible to make a mistake.

She is alive now, truly alive.

Hu Tao's firm answer confirmed Lin Jinnian's previous suspicion, but this matter was so outrageous that he still couldn't believe it.

Is this really possible?

He recalled the behavior of Huzhai Palace just now. Could it be that she had noticed it a long time ago?

As soon as the thought arose, Lin Jinnian looked at Hu Zhai Palace, who was talking to Zhen, and shouted something out of nowhere.

"Master Huzhai Palace?"

Hearing her little one calling her, Hu Zhaigong immediately turned her head with that teasing smile on her face.

"What's wrong? The little guy who "will always like me"? "

In just this moment, Lin Jinnian confirmed that the person in front of him was definitely Huzhai Palace himself.

Because this smile is all too familiar to him. It is a look that only I can make, and it is impossible to imitate it even in dreams.

Immediately, Lin Jinnian realized that he had just been tricked by this white fox and deceived him into revealing his true feelings.

She is probably very happy now...

However, Lin Jinnian didn't feel displeased at all. Instead, he was a little happy.

Because this is her, this is Huzhai Palace, which makes him feel extremely familiar and feels at ease in his heart.

The only shortcoming is...well, why did I fall in love with such a bad woman.

……

After the few people initially accepted the reality of "resurrection", they did not continue to stay in bed, but followed Lin Jinnian to the living room to discuss countermeasures.

This time, because Hu Zhaigong and Zhen were watching, Hu Tao was too embarrassed to continue hugging Lin Jinnian and sat on his chair honestly.

But it wasn't long before she couldn't hold it any longer.

Walnut has a lively nature and feels novel about everything around her. She can't help but look around curiously.

Especially when she learned that this was Lin Jinnian's home, she simply left her seat and ran to explore.

Of course, she had the unanimous consent of the three of them before this, so she didn't mess up because of playfulness!

And without Hu Tao, this meeting can still proceed normally, or rather it goes much smoother...

Chapter 277 The reason for resurrection?The Four of Shadows rule?

"So...what the hell is going on here?"

Lin Jinnian and the remaining two people sat around the dining table to exchange ideas, trying to find out the reason for their resurrection.

But it seems that the progress is not going very smoothly, and I am still in a confused state.

He felt that this was probably caused by someone being lazy.

At this time, there was a plate in front of Huzhai Palace, which contained many snacks.

She didn't know where she found it. She thought it tasted very good and took it over.

Hu Zhaigong, who was enjoying the meal, did not forget to give Zhen a piece. It seemed to be a sharing, but in fact he wanted to drag her into the water.

Zhen shook his head and refused.

She was just about to pick up the snack when she noticed Lin Jinnian looking at her.

Hu Zhaigong, who was caught fishing, was not embarrassed. Instead, he smiled and fed Lin Jinnian some snacks.

"Little guy, ah——"

Lin Jinnian glanced at her speechlessly, but still opened his mouth to accept it, but he bit down the snack a little harder.

Hu Zhaigong's fingers felt a slight pain. After retracting them, he immediately blew on his mouth and became serious.

"I don't know either."

"Zhen and I have already discussed it, and we don't have any clues at the moment."

"But... this really doesn't make sense." Lin Jinnian shook his head and said.

He had already told them about the three items, the Fire Butterfly, the Falling Cherry Blossoms, and the White Light Ball, but he could only conclude that they were the carriers of their memories or consciousness.

Still can't find any clues related to their resurrection.

He doesn't believe in such good things as pie in the sky. There must be a reason behind everything.

"Is it related to Hyakuki Yakou?"

This was the only possibility Lin Jinnian could think of considering yesterday's special situation.

"Hmm... maybe the memory of the monsters is too large, and what special changes have occurred? And we happen to be in it, and benefit from it unexpectedly?"

"I think... it may be because of the power of a higher level."

After being silent for a long time, she finally spoke. She seemed to have been thinking about something since just now.

"Do you still remember the sacred cherry seed I left for Ying?"

"The God Sakura is rooted in the present, but it can offset the disaster of Inazuma 500 years ago...it contains part of the power of "time". "True explained.

"Although I'm not sure, I have a feeling that this and the power of "time" should be of the same category. "

Perhaps only that transcendent power can explain their "resurrection".

And the truth just reminded Lin Jinnian that he knew one thing.

In this world there are four shadows of the "original man", who respectively control the four laws of "life", "death", "time" and "space".

Regarding the resurrection of the three people, there may be interference from the "ruling of life" and the "ruling of death".

But if it was indeed them, why didn't they show up?Is there any purpose?

Are these maintainers trying to win over him through this method?Or threaten him?

Not clear so far.

He only saw the "Maintainer of Heavenly Law" when he returned to Teyvat. After that, she seemed to disappear and never appeared again.

Lin Jinnian didn't want to get involved in the struggle about Sky Island like Ying. He just wanted to live his life peacefully with the one he loved.

He doesn't even necessarily intend to continue traveling with Ying to the distant Xumi Fontaine... Wouldn't it be better to stay with Dao Zhi and Liyue?

But the current plan cannot keep up with the changes.

The resurrection of Hu Zhai Palace, Hu Tao, and Zhen completely disrupted his future plans.

After being lost and found, he couldn't imagine what he would do if one day they disappeared suddenly again?

He will never allow that kind of thing to happen. Even if he crushes Sky Island, he will never let anyone take them away from him.

He will not leave his fate in other people's hands.

Maybe... I will become long-term traveling companions with you.

"Okay, okay, now that things have come to a point, it's useless to think about it so much."

Feeling the solemn atmosphere around him and seeing the frowns on the two people's faces, Hu Zhai Palace finally couldn't help but speak.

"Things have already happened. Now that they have happened, let's make peace with them."

"Obviously it's a good thing for us to return to Daozhu again, but why do you two seem to be in big trouble? No matter how difficult things are, can they still be as serious as when the disaster invaded 500 years ago?"

"Instead of worrying about that, let's think about how we should explain it to Shenzi and Shadow."

Huzhai Palace is indeed a smart woman. With a few words, she can not only remind Lin Jinnian and Zhen not to worry too much about the current situation, but also appropriately introduce the topic and divert attention.

After her interruption, the atmosphere at the scene relaxed a lot.

Yes, no matter how difficult things are, can it still be difficult 500 years ago when Lin Jinnian disappeared, Kanreiya died in battle, and Huzhai Palace was swallowed up by disaster?

Instead of worrying and thinking about some unexpected changes that may happen when they don't know when, it is better to consider how to explain to Kage and Yae Kamiko about their suddenly resurrected sister and former palace minister.

If the two of them saw the two people resurrected from the dead, they would probably be shocked, right?

Maybe, like Lin Jinnian, he thought he was dreaming.

"Well...how should I explain to them..."

"Humph, you don't need to worry about this. We can just go find them ourselves." Hu Zhai Gong stood up and stretched his muscles. He had already made a plan.

"Just stay here and spend more time with that little girl."

Hearing that the two of them were going to act alone, Lin Jinnian was subconsciously worried.

"Are you okay with yourselves?"

"Oh? Why, the little guy is worried about us? We have lived in Daozhu many times longer than you, what else could happen?"

"Well, you don't have to worry about us."

As if imagining the scene of meeting Ying, Zhen smiled softly and warmly, dispelling the remaining heaviness in the air.

"She's right, and since it's easier for us to do it alone, it should be easier to explain."

Seeing that Lian Zhen agreed with Hu Zhai Palace's idea, Lin Jinnian couldn't say anything.

"Well, be careful on your way."

"Don't worry, see you in the evening then, little one."

"I will come back here with Ying in the evening."

……

After seeing the two of them off, Lin Jinnian began to look for traces of Hu Tao at home.

Finally, he found her in a room where special items were stored.

At this time, Hutao was staring at a cabinet in a daze, standing there stupidly, not even noticing that Lin Jinnian came in.
