Collei Recovered, Layla Got Sleepy

Would someone with Forbidden Knowledge dare to provoke Bai Ye? Of course not.

Therefore, no new Forbidden Knowledge could be brought to Collei.

In this way, Collei was cured.

The Chang Sheng crawled back to Bai Ye's neck, glanced at Collei, and Bai Ye and the Chang Sheng creature walked out.

Once outside, Tighnari, who was standing at the door, immediately went up to ask.

How is she?

"Hmm, she's doing alright for now. Later, find La Signora to change her clothes so she can get a good night's sleep."

Bai Ye nodded firmly.

"Very good!"

Tighnari said happily.

At that moment, Dori rubbed her hands together and looked over expectantly.

Knowing what she was thinking, Bai Ye immediately shook her head:

"Don't even think about it, this can't be replicated."

The main reason why Collei was able to successfully cure the Scales of Corruption was because of her strong will and the fact that Chang Sheng kept instilling life force into her so that she could get through it smoothly.

If we let Bai Ye go and treat others now, putting aside whether Bai Ye has enough life force in his body, the kind of pain that Collei just experienced is not something that ordinary people can endure.

"To solve the Scales of Corruption, we need to start from the source."

"That's what I said to Dori," said Bai Ye.

"The source? You want to solve the Scales of Corruption?"

Dori was quite surprised to hear what Bai Ye said.

"Yes, we always have to do something when we come to Sumeru."

Bai Ye nodded.

"You're amazing, you're incredible." Dori gave Bai Ye a thumbs up, then said with a grin, "I bet you'll need a lot of help to achieve such a big goal. Remember to come find me when the time comes! I, Sangemah Bayt, the Magnate, will definitely be there to help you."

Tighnari glanced at Dori, then immediately asked Bai Ye, "Is there anything I can help you with right now?"

"Hmm..." Bai Ye thought for a moment, then said to Tighnari, "Um, I'd like to go to the Akademiya to look at the books on your Sumeru Art of Automata and Alchemy. I wonder if you could write me a letter of recommendation?"

With Kaveh, Bai Ye could find mentors and seniors in the Logic School. However, finding Tighnari from the Logic School would be much harder. Actually, Bai Ye wasn't quite suitable either; the true Logic School were Great General Mahamatra Cyno and Lisa from Mondstadt.

But Tighnari knows a lot of people, so Bai Ye wants to ask him.

Tighnari pondered for a moment, then said to Bai Ye, "I do know a few mentors of the Logic School. I'll write a few letters to some of them later; perhaps one of them can teach you. I just don't know how long you've been practicing Sumeru before you can easily become a disciple of a mentor."

"Impossible, that's impossible. Bai Ye absolutely cannot study under another teacher. I didn't even agree to let that woman make Bai Ye her student last time."

Guizhong came out to protest at this time.

"Um?"

Tighnari frowned and looked at Guizhong.

Dori, on the other hand, looked with great interest at the soul that appeared on Bai Ye's body.

"This is?"

"This is my teacher," Bai Ye introduced Guizhong's identity.

"Um..."

Tighnari looked at Guizhong, unsure of what to call him.

"Just call me Guizhong."

"Um!"

"Um!"

Both Tighnari and Dori were taken aback.

Dori's subordinates were puzzled by their boss's reaction.

What's wrong with this name?

"Bai Ye, your teacher is the Demon Gods of Dust Guizhong."

Dori asked Bai Ye in surprise.

"Yes, you little swindler."

Guizhong, they proudly acknowledged it.

As she draws ever closer to resurrection, she naturally wants to showcase herself to the outside world and announce her Guizhong as the Gods of the Dust.

As for danger, who on the entire Teyvat would dare to provoke the Rex Lapis?

Dori gave a dry laugh, not daring to say anything.

It's not just because Guizhong is Gods god, but more importantly, the Gods with the best relationship with Guizhong is the Rex Lapis.

The Rex Lapis is the deity that Dori worships.

If I offend Guizhong, how can I expect to receive the protection of the Rex Lapis in the future?

Tighnari Riko's expression was also very serious.

The appearance of the Gods god Kōjin in front of him was something Tighnari never expected.

Of course, everything that happened today was beyond Tighnari's imagination.

The self-immolation that involved more than ten people, the cure of his own Scales of Corruption, and finally, his encounter with the legendary Gods— each and every one of these events was beyond his comprehension.

However, speaking of self-immolation incidents...

As Tighnari was thinking this, she could feel that there was a slightly burnt smell on Bai Ye's body.

"But this smell could be from what Collei just did. I shouldn't speculate on this. Let's go tell Cyno about it first."

He thought to himself.

Guizhong going around in circles, we have to return again.

As they were about to return, Dori asked curiously, "By the way, Lord Guizhong, who is that person you mentioned who wanted to take Bai Ye as a student?"

"Oh. Beelzebul."

"Beelzebul... Raiden Shogun!?"

Dori was still surprised, Guizhong, she had already returned to Bai Ye's body.

Because Collei needed to rest, Bai Ye went to Tighnari to rest for the time being.

Several people sat on chairs and rested for a while.

Tighnari prepared some snacks with Sumeru characteristics for them, such as pocket bread, which gave Bai Ye a unique flavor. The most interesting thing was the large amount of edible fungi that Tighnari prepared, which had a unique flavor even without any seasoning.

"These mushrooms, when consumed regularly, can not only fill you up but also strengthen your body."

Tighnari explained to Bai Ye.

"Um."

Bai Ye ate a few more mushrooms.

Then, he asked Tighnari, "Um, there's something in there that helps you grow taller... never mind, never mind."

I was about to ask if there were any ways to help me grow taller, but when I saw how tall Tighnari, she was only slightly taller than me, so I decided against it.

Tighnari was a little confused, while Dori chuckled to herself.

Bai Ye eating a few more mushrooms, Tighnari's ears twitched, and she pointed to Collei's small room, saying, "Collei seems to have woken up. Let's go check on her now."

"Yes, let's go check on her now."

Bai Ye and Tighnari walked up to Collei. To avoid seeing anything they shouldn't, Bai Ye asked from the doorway, "Um, Collei, have you changed your clothes?"

"Okay, I'm done changing."

Upon hearing what Bai Ye said, Collei's tone was clearly flustered.

Bai Ye and Tighnari heard Collei say that, they pushed open the door and went inside.

"How are you feeling now?"

"Bai Ye I asked Collei."

Upon seeing Bai Ye, Collei's expression became even more flustered.

When she fell into a coma and fell asleep, the last thing she saw was Bai Ye.

The most painful time for him was when he helped him solve a problem.

Just as he was feeling desperate because of the Scales of Corruption, Bai Ye intervened and resolved the situation.

The last time Collei felt this way was when she met Amber.

Now, Bai Ye helped her solve her physical problems, making Collei feel like she was a new person again.

And it also has a unique feeling.

"He has a really nice smile."

Collei Lai thought to himself.

Her behavior naturally did not escape the notice of the others in the room.

Bai Ye didn't react, but when they saw the Guizhong on his body, Asmodeus, Osial, and Orobas couldn't help but laugh.

At this moment, Tighnari remembered what Dori had said before.

My little apprentice has already fallen for someone else so quickly.

"This is fine too."

At this moment, Tighnari was unaware of Bai Ye complex emotional issues that were even more thorny than a hedgehog's quills.

Chang Sheng said to Tighnari, "You need to rest more in the coming days. Although I've given you enough life force and your Scales of Corruption has disappeared, you still need to make up for the previous deficiencies. Come, young man named Tighnari, let me tell you a Liyue prescription that's very beneficial for nourishing your body. By the way, you're quite skilled in this area, aren't you? Why don't you tell me your ideas on nourishing your body as well?"

"Good."

Upon hearing Chang Sheng's words, Tighnari naturally knew she was Adepti. The Adepti of Liyue were renowned for their status and abilities, Sumeru Tighnari was certainly not going to miss this opportunity to discuss things with her.

Chang Sheng Na was also satisfied. The techniques of the theory school were naturally unique, and knowing more techniques would allow her to reach a higher level.

As for Bai Ye and Collei, one was proficient in Art of Automata, while the other was even less so, and the two stared at each other blankly.

He shrugged.

Collei asked Bai Ye, "What are you planning to do next?"

"I need to go to Sumeru City; there are still things I need to do there."

"Is there a lot of trouble?"

"Hmm, for example, this Scales of Corruption. I need to find a way to get rid of all the Scales of Corruption in the entire Sumeru."

"You're really going to go this far?" Collei, somewhat surprised.

"Hmm, there are too many dangers to face in Teyvat. I can only deal with them one by one as best I can. Scales of Corruption, that's not difficult to handle."

"It is gentle," said Bai Ye.

Seeing him say that, Collei felt that the Bai Ye in front of him had grown much taller.

"What can I do to help you?"

"Hmm? Maybe you can help me. At least you should get yourself well first, and then I might ask you for help. But for the time being, you'd better not come to Sumeru City."

"Why?"

Collei was somewhat puzzled.

"It's hard to say for sure right now."

"Um."

Collei nodded seriously.

Now that I'm cured, I need to increase my strength so I can definitely help Bai Ye.

After spending another day in the Gandharva Ville, Bai Ye followed Dori's caravan and prepared to set off.

Tighnari and Collei watched them leave.

"We're leaving."

Bai Ye bid them farewell.

Tighnari said to Bai Ye, "Alright, keep my letter safe. The instructors from the Logic School will arrange a study spot for you during class. You can audit any course you plan to study. You can also borrow books from the academy's library just like any other student. Unfortunately, I've been away from the academy for a long time and can't arrange an instructor for you."

"No, it's fine if we can just look at the basics first."

Bai Ye waved his hand and said.

First, lay a solid foundation, and then wait until the King Deshret comes, at which point he will grant the King Deshret all the necessary permissions.

We'll take a closer look then.

Collei looked at Bai Ye and thought for a while about how to encourage him.

However, she is still at a limited level of cultural literacy. After thinking for a moment, she said to Bai Ye:

"Bai Ye, you will definitely succeed!"

"Good."

Bai Ye nodded with a smile.

He set off.

Collei watched Bai Ye's departing figure for a long time.

Tighnari watched from the side.

"Come on, if you don't stop now, you might get dizzy from the sun."

"Ah?!"

Collei then seemed to realize what was happening and quickly returned to the cabin in the woods with Tighnari.

Bai Ye followed the Dori Dravya Beast towards Sumeru City, and two days later they finally arrived in Sumeru City.

Watching the Sumeru people coming and going, Dori suddenly remembered something, patted her forehead, and said to Bai Ye, "Oh, right, I almost forgot, everyone in Sumeru City is now given a 'Akasha Terminal,' and they want to find a way to get something from Akasha Terminal. Should I get you Akasha Terminal?"

"Need not."

Bai Ye was well aware of the problems involved in the Akasha Terminal. Bai Ye had no desire to experience those recurring dreams dozens or even hundreds of times.

"Alright." Dori shrugged. "Do you have a place to stay in Sumeru City? Would you like me to arrange a house for you?"

"No, it's not necessary."

Bai Ye immediately spoke.

Bai Ye knew what Dori was thinking, given how much she cared.

Once she delivered Bai Ye to the entrance of Sumeru City, her mission was considered complete. Any further requests from Bai Ye would incur additional charges, which Dori could then seek reimbursement from Ningguang.

Bai Ye wouldn't fall for it.

"You're such a cheapskate."

Dori gritted her teeth and said.

"You love money more than I do."

Bai Ye retorted without giving an inch.

The two were at loggerheads.

Bai Ye jumped down from the Dravya Beast and headed towards the Sumeru City.

Upon arriving at the gate of Sumeru City, someone immediately came to interrogate Bai Ye about his identity.

However, after Bai Ye took out a large pile of letters from Kaveh and then a letter from Tighnari, he immediately stopped the interrogation.

With Kaveh and Tighnari vouching for them, they believed it themselves.

Bai Ye was carrying the letter and heading towards Sumeru City.

First, I strolled around, randomly bought a few snacks on the street, and also admired the Sumeru and other delicacies.

Guizhong commented to Bai Ye: "Inazuma culture and Liyue culture have many similarities, but Sumeru style is completely different. I must go and explore it properly once I recover."

"Yes, definitely. Sumeru isn't just about the rainforest; there's another culture in the desert. Once you've recovered, we'll take a good look around."

"Good."

Guizhong, eyes brimming with anticipation.

Bai Ye wandered around Sumeru City again.

Before he'd even finished walking around the streets, dozens of girls were already showering him with flowers. He even went to a dark, secluded corner where girls tried to kidnap him.

Unfortunately, her combat strength is far inferior to Bai Ye's.

However, he did not encounter Dottore along the way.

"I wonder where that guy Dottore went. Oh well, let's not worry about him for now. He'll find me on his own eventually."

He muttered to himself.

After saying this, he went to find the person mentioned in the letters between Kaveh and Tighnari.

It must be said that, as the most outstanding young generation in the academy, Kaveh and Tighnari had extensive exchanges. In fact, Bai Ye even found Cyno's adoptive father Guleesh, and Kaveh's mother's mentor Sahrahati, based on the letters they gave him.

"According to what Kaveh said, are you now Kaveh's client?"

Sahrahati asked Bai Ye.

"Yes, that's right. If we want him to create a Guili Temple, we need Kaveh's help."

Bai Ye answered Sahrahati.

Looking at the letter, Sahrahati couldn't help but sigh, "They only care about paying, and the design is entirely up to the designer. How come I never encountered a client like this before!"

Sahrahati already found Bai Ye's appearance quite pleasing to the eye, and now with the addition of the most pleasing client in history, Sahrahati, he is even more pleasing to the eye.

"According to Kaveh, you are a master of Art of Automata. I wonder if you could show me how?"

"Good."

Hearing about the test, Bai Ye wasn't worried. He took out his tools and assembled a small set of mechanisms.

The simplest wooden kite can take off at any time.

"Is this the Liyue Mechanism? It looks incredibly ingenious!"

Sahrahati picked up the mechanism.

"These are..."

"This is a talisman from the immortals. With this talisman, you can perform many more rituals."

The Bai Ye demonstrates the ingenious use of the mechanism.

Sahrahati looked on with a satisfied smile.

She then looked at Bai Ye and said to him, "Kaveh's letter asked me to help you get permission to audit classes and borrow books as a student. Now that I've seen you, this old woman has changed her mind."

"Um?"

Bai Ye was puzzled.

Why haven't they given it to me yet?

"Although I've retired, I still have some connections. I'll arrange a temporary mentor position for you. However, you'll need to teach our academy what you can teach in your Liyue Art of Automata."

Bai Ye thought for a moment and nodded, "That's fine. However, I also need to learn the Art of Automata of the Academy and then take Liyue with me."

The Art of Automata is unique to his family; only he and Guizhong know about it, Bai Ye has the authority to dispose of it. As for technology, the worst thing is to keep it to oneself; the best way to promote development is through mutual exchange.

Especially in Liyue, the knowledge is passed down from master to apprentice, without a systematic learning system like the Academy.

Bai Ye believes that he should grasp the advantages of both sides.

When Sahehati saw Bai Ye nodding, he laughed, "You tell me, I will definitely help you get it."

"Um, what if the Great Sage disagrees?"

"If this old woman still doesn't have this much face, I'll just lie down in front of the Great Sage's house."

Sahrahati said with a smile.

She's already in her seventies or eighties. If something were to happen to her while she's lying at the door of the Great Sage, the Great Sage would have no way to explain himself.

Even if it doesn't affect anything, it's still disgusting enough.

"Grandma, you're amazing."

"Hahaha..."

Sahrahati laughed heartily.

That very Bai Ye, Bai Ye stayed at Sahrahati's house.

The next day, Sahrahati couldn't wait to help Bai Ye get his identity processed.

Quickly, she helped Bai Ye obtain the necessary identity authorization.

It's likely that the wise man knew about Sahrahati's situation and, fearing being extorted, simply admitted it.

And so, Bai Ye became a temporary tutor at the academy.

For the next few days, Bai Ye was free because the teaching academy had already arranged the courses.

Dottore didn't contact him either.

So Bai Ye started reading books in the library.

Quickly, his good looks became a hit among the students of the college.

For those girls who are always engrossed in their studies and stay at home, Bai Ye's cute and handsome face and temperament are absolutely irresistible.

Ah! So cute!

Bai Ye has been at the library for a few days, and the number of people in the library is increasing.

Fortunately, the girls who stayed at home weren't very brave. When Bai Ye was reading, they only dared to watch from a distance of a few meters away and swallow their saliva.

One should not disturb or offend the beauty.

The area around Bai Ye was completely quiet.

Just then, a figure staggered to Bai Ye's side.

They were startled when they saw someone approaching Bai Ye.

"What? Someone actually dares to bother that handsome young man?"

"Isn't she incredibly bold?"

"Wait, it looks like Layla."

"Is she still in a daze?"

"Possibly."

Bai Ye was reading at the table when he suddenly noticed someone swaying and leaning against it from the opposite side of the table.

"Can I sit here?"

"This library is all public space, you can use it as you like." After saying this, Bai Ye looked up.

Take a closer look at the girl who was talking to him.

Her long, dark blue, gradient hair was braided into four Roman curls, two small curls falling beside her face and two thicker curls hanging down her back. Her face was as delicate as a doll's, with a pair of very beautiful golden eyes, but dark circles under these beautiful eyes slightly marred her beauty; otherwise, she would have looked even more beautiful.

She wore a hood similar to a nightcap, a dark and white backless short dress with a blue ribbon tied around her waist, an ice-blue "Genshin Eye" embellishment on her lower back, white leggings that tightly hugged her slender legs, and gold high heels. At that moment, she stood up and swayed unsteadily.

Layla has a dual personality.

Bai Ye knew that he recognized the girl's identity.

At this moment, Layla also looked at Bai Ye with dazed eyes.

Are you an international student?

Layla asked Bai Ye.

She had been staying up all night for several days and could not see the person in front of her clearly at all. She could only tell that the person in front of her was not wearing Sumeru clothes.

She'd been so busy with her research project lately that she hadn't slept for days. But despite this long sleep deprivation, she hadn't made any progress. This put immense pressure on Layla, and unable to come up with any ideas, she decided to try her luck at the library.

To her surprise, there were so many people in the library today.

Fortunately, there's another place here.

So she quickly came here intending to find a place to read books and find inspiration.
