Chapter Summaries

Wang Lei entered Sirin’s Imaginary Space and helped Himeko inject the Anti-Honkai Energy Serum into Kiana, then brought both women back to reality. He secretly resurrected Himeko, and after Kiana disappeared for Shenzhou, Wang Lei left Saint Freya Academy with Nancy and Wendy to begin strengthening Himeko in other worlds.

• Wang Lei entered Sirin’s Imaginary Space and fought her while Himeko broke free of the metal cube.
• Himeko injected the Anti-Honkai Energy Serum into Sirin and delivered her Last Lesson to Kiana, who briefly regained consciousness before collapsing.
• Wang Lei rescued Kiana and Himeko from the Imaginary Space, then emerged with them on a deserted Pacific island.
• Wang Lei summoned a new Himeko, concealed her survival with armor and the Serenitea Pot, and arranged for her to remain hidden.
• Kiana grieved at Himeko’s funeral, left Saint Freya Academy, and asked Wang Lei to send her to Shenzhou.
• Wang Lei returned to Saint Freya Academy after sending Kiana away, then departed with Nancy and Wendy to take Himeko to other worlds for training.

Wang Lei brought Nancy and Himeko to the Yuanxing Island Research Base, where they met the Angels and Nancy proved her scientific ability to Zhi Xin. After upgrading Nancy and Himeko with Super Genes and Imaginary Number Engines, Wang Lei agreed to support Yan as she returned to the Angel Nebula to claim the Angel King’s throne and gather forces to search for Morgana.

• Wang Lei introduced Nancy and Himeko to Gui Zhong and toured them around the Yuanxing Island Research Base, where they learned about its alien technologies.
• Nancy challenged Zhi Xin to a research competition, but Zhi Xin won by presenting an Imaginary Number Energy algorithm that powered Void abilities; Nancy then impressed her with a formula for converting Imaginary Number Energy into conventional energy.
• Wang Lei sparred with Leng to train her use of Void algorithms, while Himeko and Nancy later received Super Genes and Imaginary Number Engines that raised them to Third Generation Super Soldiers.
• Himeko went to the border to test her new abilities and earned the name Flame Queen, while Nancy became the research base’s third-in-command and a noted Honkai Energy researcher.
• Unable to locate Morgana, Yan told Wang Lei she would return to the Angel Nebula to inherit the throne and bring back an Angel Legion; Wang Lei gave her a Herrscher of the Void gem that could open a portal to him.

Wang Lei rescued Leina, managed Earth’s deployments, and then traveled with Yan, Zhi Xin, and Leng to the Angel Nebula. The Angel checkpoint recognized him as Tian Xin King and allowed him entry, leaving Meru Heavenly Court in view.

• Ge Xiaolun awoke and accepted reassignment to the Southwest War Zone, while Wang Lei upgraded Qi Lin and Mengmeng and sent them to the southwestern border.
• Wang Lei supplied Lianfeng with materials for genetic agents and gave Gui Zhong Original Primordial Sea Water to support research on a competing agent.
• Wang Lei rescued Leina from a Taotie transport fleet, mediated her return with the Angels, and sent her to help at the southwestern border.
• Wang Lei learned that Liangbing had attached herself to Rose, while the Taotie weakened and Carl continued waiting for a chance to advance the Void Era.
• A portal brought Wang Lei, Zhi Xin, and Leng to Yan at the Angel Nebula, where the checkpoint verified Wang Lei’s appointment as Tian Xin King and admitted him.

Wang Lei accompanied Yan to Meru Heavenly Court as she prepared to inherit command of the Angel Legion, where Hexi challenged their authority by sitting on Keisha’s throne. Wang Lei defeated Hexi in a contest of quantum manipulation, and Hexi acknowledged him as Tian Xin King before asking everyone but him and Yan to leave.

• Angel beauties crowded around Wang Lei in Meru Heavenly Court, fascinated by the first male king in tens of thousands of years and his record of fighting Morgana.
• Yan led Wang Lei and the others past armed Angel warriors into Angel King's Hall, where Hexi sat on Keisha’s throne and the gathered Angels scrutinized Yan and Wang Lei.
• Wang Lei challenged Hexi’s claim to the throne by creating two matching thrones, while Hexi used the Celestial System and Dark Energy to disrupt his construction.
• Wang Lei feinted by building the thrones outside Angel King's Hall, then teleported them beside Keisha’s throne and won the contest.
• Hexi stood, praised Wang Lei’s capabilities, recognized him as Tian Xin King, and told everyone except Wang Lei and Yan to leave.
• Yan and Wang Lei signaled Zhui, Moyi, Leng, and Zhi Xin to leave the hall.

Hexi challenged Yan’s readiness to succeed Keisha, then sent her to undergo the tests Keisha had arranged while Wang Lei toured Angel City with Zhi Xin and Leng. After Wang Lei shared Angel technology and gave Hexi a scientific gift, Hexi left Zhi Xin alone with him, and the two ended the day together.

• Hexi questioned Yan’s authority and beliefs, while Wang Lei argued that Yan’s supporters and her willingness to uphold justice mattered more than the absent older Angels.
• Hexi brought out a battered King Sword and ordered Yan to accept Keisha’s tests; Wang Lei declined to watch and went to tour Angel City with Zhi Xin and Leng.
• Leng took Wang Lei to the training camp and fought twenty Angels in a simulated battle, then Zhi Xin shared her Academy of Sciences access so Wang Lei could download Angel technology and learn the Divine Code.
• Hexi invited Wang Lei and Zhi Xin to dinner, acknowledged Wang Lei as Zhi Xin’s partner, then confronted him about taking the Academy’s advanced technology.
• Wang Lei gave Hexi Genius’s Frequency Capture gloves, prompting her to rush back to the Academy of Sciences; after Hexi whispered to Zhi Xin, Zhi Xin returned to Wang Lei, and they spent the night together.

After Yan’s coronation, Wang Lei briefed her on the Demons, Taotie, and Hua Ye’s Heaven Dregs before she prepared to lead the Angels toward Earth. Wang Lei returned to Earth, where the vast trove of Angel research overwhelmed Gui Zhong and Nancy, prompting him to propose organizing it at a research institute in Teyvat.

• Yan was crowned Angel Queen and announced her plan to lead the Angel Legion to Earth to crusade against Morgana.
• Wang Lei warned Yan’s council that the Taotie had Void weapons and that Hua Ye and Ruo Ning were joining the threat; Leng vowed to confront her master if the betrayal proved true.
• Yan ordered Zhui, Moyi, and the senior Angels to mobilize and prepare for a war against the Demons, Heaven Dregs, and Taotie.
• Wang Lei gave Yan Super-Distance Remote Sensing goggles, left Leng and Zhi Xin with her, and returned to Earth.
• Wang Lei, Gui Zhong, Nancy, and Himeko spent a week storing Angel research data across ten thousand hard drives, but Gui Zhong and Nancy struggled to organize it.
• Wang Lei proposed setting up a research institute in the Guili Plains so Gui Zhong and Nancy could sort the materials in Teyvat, and Gui Zhong began preparing supplies.

Wang Lei helped Gui Zhong reclaim Guili Plains and establish a research institute, while Zhongli worried over Liyue’s future and urged Wang Lei to patiently improve his combat skills. After a month of sparring left Wang Lei frustrated and far behind Zhongli, Zhongli advised him to practice close combat with Ying.

• Wang Lei brought Gui Zhong, Nancy, and Himeko to the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor, where they met Zhongli and Venti and discussed rebuilding Guili Plains as a scientific research center.
• Zhongli worried that the Liyue Qixing might grow too powerful, but Gui Zhong rejected his suggestion that she become Geo Archon, and Wang Lei proposed independent courts and commercial laws.
• Gui Zhong met the Liyue Qixing, reclaimed Guili Plains, and used the Creation Engine and her earth powers to clear the ruins and prepare the site for a research base.
• Wang Lei established a research base overnight, and Jean brought Albedo and Sucrose from Mondstadt to join its research team.
• Wang Lei spent a month testing his Spacetime Shield and sparring with Zhongli, losing nine times and drawing once as he struggled to overcome Zhongli’s defenses and combat experience.
• Zhongli warned Wang Lei that haste was hindering his progress and advised him to practice close combat with Ying on Dragonspine Mountain.

Wang Lei trained on Dragonspine Mountain by fighting Hilichurls with only his sword, then met Eula and persuaded her to guide him toward Durin’s remains and Ying. At a mountain camp, Wang Lei cooked for Eula, and Ying and Paimon arrived after smelling the food.

• Wang Lei entered Dragonspine Mountain to train with melee slashes, got lost in a blizzard, and cut down Hilichurls as he practiced the Source Style Katana Chapter.
• Wang Lei found Eula swimming near an ice lake and staged a noisy fight to get her attention, then asked her to guide him toward Durin’s remains and Ying.
• Eula marked supply points on Albedo’s map and agreed to guide Wang Lei along her patrol route.
• Wang Lei swiftly killed Hilichurls as they traveled with Eula, and they reached a sheltered camp before sunset.
• Wang Lei prepared teppanyaki using supplies from his teapot, and Eula enjoyed the spicy squid.
• Ying and Paimon followed the smell of grilled squid to the cave camp.

Wang Lei joined Ying, Paimon, and Eula to investigate Dragonspine’s ruins and Durin’s remains, where he discovered that Durin’s heart still held a living consciousness. He persuaded Durin to leave with him by promising to create him a harmless metal body, then stored the heart and Durin’s remains in his Serenitea Pot.

• Ying and Paimon described freeing three strange fragments from the Dragonspine ruins, and Wang Lei urged them to investigate what they had released.
• Wang Lei, Ying, Paimon, and Eula agreed to visit Durin’s remains before continuing to the summit, and Wang Lei supplied spare furniture for Ying’s Serenitea Pot.
• The group reached Durin’s heart, whose purple mist knocked Ying, Paimon, and Eula unconscious while Wang Lei protected himself.
• Wang Lei communicated with Durin and learned that the dragon’s heart could regenerate and that Durin feared his return would harm the world.
• Wang Lei promised Durin a harmless metal body in exchange for his obedience, and Durin accepted him as his father.
• Wang Lei moved Durin’s heart and remains into his Serenitea Pot, then stored the pot in the space of his Geo Vision.

Wang Lei dealt with Durin, reached the Skyfrost Nail on Dragonspine, and brought both relics back to the Guili Plains Research Institute for study. After Venti and Zhongli declined to research the Nail themselves, Wang Lei secured their tokens and considered seeking Nahida’s help in Sumeru.

• Wang Lei woke Ying, Eula, and Paimon after defeating Durin, then led them through a snowball fight and explained that Durin’s poison had caused them to faint.
• Wang Lei and the others explored the mountain ruins, where Ying and Eula defeated a Cryo Armored Hilichurl King guarding the Skyfrost Nail.
• Wang Lei melted the Nail’s strange ice, restored its fragments, and used a customized Curio storage cabinet to take the Nail into the Serenitea Pot.
• Wang Lei returned to the Guili Plains Research Institute with Durin’s heart and the Skyfrost Nail, prompting Gui Zhong and Nancy to add the research to his already crowded workload.
• Wang Lei brought Venti and Zhongli to see the Nail, but both declined to study it and instead gave him tokens bearing their powers.
• Wang Lei accepted the tokens and decided that Nahida might be a more suitable person to approach for help with the research.

Wang Lei met Nahida in Sumeru City and persuaded her to join the gods’ research into erosion and Sky Nails by creating her a mobile clone. He brought her to the Guili Plains research institute, where the others mistook her for a child being exploited until Nahida revealed she was five hundred years old and Sumeru’s Dendro Archon.

• Wang Lei entered Sumeru City under an Inazuman identity and lured Nahida to his inn room with tokens bearing the other Archons’ power.
• Wang Lei invited Nahida to join the research on a Gene Engine and Sky Nails, and Nahida accepted because Sky Nails might help address the World Tree’s curse.
• Wang Lei made Nahida a Honkai Steel clone, and she transferred her consciousness into it using a borrowed Void Terminal.
• Nahida became absorbed in Wang Lei’s biotechnology books, delaying their departure from Sumeru until noon.
• Wang Lei carried Nahida invisibly to the Guili Plains research institute, where Himeko and the others accused him of using child labor.
• Nahida told the group that she was the five-hundred-year-old Dendro Archon of Sumeru.

Wang Lei resolved Shenhe’s feelings for him, and Gui Zhong and Cloud Retainer began arranging their wedding while he continued preparing Durin’s new body. Ying asked Wang Lei to help her reach Inazuma, and after learning Beidou’s ship had been wrecked, he offered her a replacement vessel and prepared to return to Inazuma himself.

• Cloud Retainer confronted Wang Lei about his three wives and accused him of upsetting Shenhe, while Gui Zhong privately revealed that she had arranged the confrontation to push them together.
• Wang Lei found Shenhe tasting Xiangling’s new rice wine, then took her aside and learned that she accepted his other wives and wanted to be with him.
• Wang Lei kissed Shenhe, summoned her through the system, and returned with her to the Guili Plains Research Institute, where Nahida’s comment about them having a baby startled Himeko.
• Gui Zhong and Cloud Retainer took charge of arranging Wang Lei and Shenhe’s wedding, while Wang Lei continued working on Durin’s crystal dragon body and accompanying Shenhe.
• Ying told Wang Lei that she wanted to catch Kong and travel to Inazuma; she asked him to help Beidou reach the islands after the Alcor was damaged.
• Wang Lei heard how Beidou’s ship had been wrecked by Inazuma’s intensified thunderstorms, offered her a replacement sailing ship, and Beidou agreed to buy it.

Wang Lei brought Ying and Paimon to Inazuma aboard the Crux Fleet, opened a path through the Shogun’s thunderstorm with Narukami's Shadow, and reached Ritou disguised as an ordinary traveler. After a Kanjou Commission official demanded an exorbitant fee and tried to seize his sword, Wang Lei fought off the guards and waited for the Tenryou Commission’s leaders, leaving the dispute in Kujou Sara’s hands.

• Wang Lei used Narukami's Shadow to part Inazuma’s thunderstorm, then discussed the Isshin Art’s future with Kaedehara Kazuha during the voyage.
• Beidou brought Wang Lei, Ying, and Paimon ashore at Ritou, where Thoma met them and led them to register with the Kanjou Commission.
• Yurika demanded six million Mora for their residency documents and ordered guards to seize Wang Lei’s sword, so Wang Lei paralyzed the uniformed soldiers and attacked the Tenryou Commission’s private fighters.
• Wang Lei defeated successive groups of reinforcements while Hiiragi Shinsuke watched from a distance and avoided confronting him.
• Kujou Sara arrived and questioned Wang Lei, who accused the Kanjou Commission of extortion and the Tenryou Commission of secretly employing unregistered God's Eye holders.

Wang Lei returned to Inazuma, exposed the Kanjou Commission’s abuse, and forced Hiiragi Shinsuke to pay one billion Mora. After reporting the island’s hidden famine and corruption to Ei, Wang Lei received disaster-relief and infrastructure duties, along with a request to resolve Narukami Island’s Ley Line Congestion.

• Hiiragi Shinsuke arrived at the Kanjou Commission, recognized Wang Lei as the Shogun’s retainer, and blamed Yurika for the incident.
• Wang Lei accused the Tenryou Commission of trying to seize the Shogun’s marked sword, then negotiated one billion Mora from Hiiragi Shinsuke and secured residency and travel permits for Ying and Paimon.
• Wang Lei sent Ying and Paimon to explore Inazuma with Thoma, then left with Kujou Sara and collected the compensation at the Hiiragi Estate.
• Wang Lei told Kujou Sara that Hiiragi Shinsuke’s treasury revealed the Hiiragi Family’s immense wealth, and Kujou Sara detained Yurika before accompanying him to Tenshukaku.
• Ei heard Wang Lei’s account of famine and corruption, assigned him the compensation as disaster-relief funding, and tasked him with resolving Narukami Island’s Ley Line Congestion.
• Wang Lei accepted Ei’s assignments and requested authority to develop land and infrastructure with the Tenryou and Kanjou Commissions’ cooperation.

After being appointed Great Elder, Wang Lei began tackling Inazuma’s food crisis by arranging grain purchases and clearing Ley Line Congestion. He purified the first Sacred Sakura root, gained a great deal of energy, and encountered Hanasato, whose identity as Kitsune Saiguu’s remnant he recognized.

• Ei reprimanded Hiiragi Shinsuke for failing to control his subordinates and report the food shortage, but let him keep his position on probation.
• Wang Lei gave Nancy one billion Mora to buy grain, then asked Yae Miko for the Ley Line Congestion locations and won her cooperation with a tablet full of novels and shows.
• Yae Miko sent A Xing to guide Wang Lei, while Wang Lei asked her to meet Ying and help draw the Traveler into Ei’s affairs.
• At Konda Village, Wang Lei stopped Ying from attacking a barrier, explained that no treasure lay beyond it, and paid her to map large wandering samurai camps.
• Wang Lei absorbed the contaminated Ley Line Energy from a Sacred Sakura root for five hours, clearing the congestion and earning fifty million Energy Points.
• Hanasato appeared and revealed herself as a drifting soul; Wang Lei identified her as Kitsune Saiguu and let her remain while he left with A Xing.

Wang Lei captured a Fatui agent investigating the Sacred Sakura Tree, completed the cleansing of its five secondary root nodes, and brought food made by Hanasato from Kitsune Saiguu’s memories to Ei and Yae Miko. He left the story poised to cleanse the main root system the next day, with Ei and Miko joining him in hopes of another connection to Kitsune Saiguu.

• Wang Lei and A Xing captured Spesioza Sokolova at Mt. Yougou, where she was investigating the Sacred Sakura Tree’s roots, and Wang Lei questioned her about the Fatui’s plans and Delusion production.
• Wang Lei handed Spesioza over to Yae Miko for interrogation, then continued cleansing the Sacred Sakura Tree’s root nodes with A Xing.
• Wang Lei cleared the five secondary root nodes and gained 250 million Energy Points in total.
• Hanasato brought Wang Lei real Sakura Shrimp Senbei and Tricolor Dumplings made from Kitsune Saiguu’s memories, and told him she would disappear after the ritual was complete.
• Wang Lei shared the food with Ei and Yae Miko, who recognized Kitsune Saiguu’s cooking and became overwhelmed with grief; Yae Miko transformed into a fox to snatch a treat from Ei.
• Wang Lei asked whether Ei and Yae Miko would revive Kitsune Saiguu if they could, then invited them to watch him cleanse the Sacred Sakura Tree’s main root system the next day.

Wang Lei cleansed the Sacred Sakura Tree’s main roots, where he fought a ley-line copy of himself, then watched Hanasato disappear at sunrise with Ei and Yae Miko. He resurrected Kitsune Saiguu afterward, and Ei immediately decided they would go to Khaenri'ah.

• Yae Miko opened the barrier to the Sacred Sakura Tree’s main roots, and Ei learned that Inazuma’s ley lines were saturated with resentment.
• Wang Lei fought a copy of himself formed from the contaminated ley-line energy and restrained it until he absorbed the pollution, gaining three hundred million Energy Points.
• Hanasato appeared and prepared to disperse, so Wang Lei brought Ei and Yae Miko to the summit of Mt. Yougou to watch the sunrise with her.
• Hanasato said farewell to Ei and Yae Miko and dissolved in the dawn, leaving her mask behind.
• Wang Lei used the system to resurrect Kitsune Saiguu, and Ei embraced her while Yae Miko bit Wang Lei for concealing the surprise.
• Ei grabbed Wang Lei and ordered him to leave for Khaenri'ah with her immediately.

Ei sought a way to revive Raiden Makoto, but Wang Lei rejected her plans to hunt Teyvat’s gods and redirected her toward Morgana in another world. Ei then announced Kitsune Saiguu’s return and ordered a festival, while Wang Lei faced the Raiden Shogun’s renewed hostility.

• Wang Lei explained that reviving Makoto would require vastly more energy than reviving Kitsune Saiguu, and said that killing several Demon Gods could provide enough Life Force.
• Ei proposed hunting Demon Gods in the Sea of Outer Darkness and then targeting Fontaine or Snezhnaya, but Kitsune Saiguu, Yae Miko, and Wang Lei warned against those plans.
• Wang Lei reminded Ei of Morgana, and Ei agreed to summon him whenever he faced a powerful enemy; his favorability with Ei rose to Reliance.
• Ei publicly announced Kitsune Saiguu’s return and ordered a major festival on Byakko Plain, leaving the Yashiro Commission and the Kujou and Hiiragi Families to arrange and fund it.
• The Raiden Shogun attacked Wang Lei over Kitsune Saiguu’s resurrection, and Ei had to take control to stop her; the Shogun then refused Wang Lei’s food and remained hostile toward him.

Wang Lei used Nahida’s Grass Luminescent Lantern to expand Inazuma’s reconstruction efforts, then confronted Kamisato Ayaka over her secret grain support for Watatsumi Island. He spared the Kamisato Family after warning Ayaka to stop supporting the Resistance Army and keep the Shuumatsuban within its proper role.

• Nahida developed the Grass Luminescent Lantern, and Wang Lei arranged mass production for Liyue, Mondstadt, and Inazuma despite its Ley Line risks.
• Wang Lei cleared Fuyozura groups from Narukami Island, recruited prisoners and other workers for road construction, and arranged for Kuki Shinobu to manage the site.
• Wang Lei persuaded Beidou to end her grain shipments to Watatsumi Island and intercepted a shipment arranged by Kamisato Ayaka.
• Wang Lei confronted Kamisato Ayaka at the Kamisato estate, used an empty envelope to make her believe he had proof, and warned her that the Shogunate could punish her family.
• Wang Lei spared Kamisato Ayaka after revealing that Yae Guuji had pleaded for her, and told her to warn Kamisato Ayato not to treat the Shuumatsuban as the family’s private organization.
• Kamisato Ayaka resolved to stop supporting Watatsumi Island, speak with her brother, and destroy documents related to the arrangement.

Wang Lei and Yae Miko agreed to keep Sangonomiya’s religious legacy while reclaiming its political authority, and they used the White Fox Festival to bring Kitsune Saiguu back into Inazuma’s public life. After the festival, Yae Miko reported Fatui ties to the Resistance and the Kujou and Hiiragi Families, setting the stage for Wang Lei’s next moves.

• Wang Lei told Yae Miko he had disciplined the Kamisato Family and demanded greater control over the Shuumatsuban, while Yae Miko explained her plan to involve Ying in the Resistance and gather the wishes of people whose God's Eyes had been confiscated.
• Wang Lei rejected destroying Sangonomiya but insisted that it surrender its governing authority over Watatsumi Island, and Yae Miko agreed to arrange Ying’s involvement after the White Fox Festival.
• Wang Lei joined Yae Miko, Kitsune Saiguu, and Ei in Chinju Forest, where he frightened Gozou with tales of god-level ingredients before accepting the tanuki’s acorns.
• Wang Lei prepared Soton’s crocodile tail for the festival, where Ei, Kitsune Saiguu, Yae Miko, Gozou, Kirara, and the townspeople shared its nourishing meat.
• Wang Lei and Yae Miko watched Kamisato Ayaka dance for Ying, then discussed the Fatui’s support for the Resistance and their connections with the Kujou and Hiiragi Families.
• Yae Miko told Wang Lei that the captured Mirror Maiden was suffering from a Delusion and revealed that Rosalyne’s loyalty to the Cryo Archon complicated her feelings for him.
