Fang Xun: "????"

What kind of artifact is this thing?

Does he lack HP?

Is this system messing with him?

It gave him the 'Earth Core' skill, which doesn't require HP stacking, and then gave him a feather with all HP stats??

Life is truly unpredictable, like a sausage wrapped in another sausage.

But, It's not a big problem.

He'll just get an Enhancement Talisman later and change all the artifact sub-stats then.

He'll make do with it for now.

Having it is better than not having it.

Fang Xun reluctantly equipped the feather with all HP stats.

After finishing all that, Fang Xun exited the system interface.

The time that had been paused now resumed its flow.

Ganyu looked at Fang Xun and then said, confused, "Mister Fang Xun, you look a bit unwell. Is there anything I can help you with?"

Fang Xun had been smiling and telling her it was nothing just a second ago, looking very relaxed.

How did he suddenly become so heavy-hearted in the blink of an eye?

Fang Xun was a bit puzzled.

Was his gloomy mood that obvious?

"Ah, it's nothing. I was just feeling worried about the city of Liyue."

"Worried?"

Ganyu understood Fang Xun's meaning less and less. She blinked her clear, bright eyes, very confused.

"Mister Fang Xun, I think Liyue is very peaceful right now. Can you tell me what you're worried about?"

As Liyue's top secretary, Ganyu instinctively cared about Liyue's development.

"Miss Ganyu, during your lunch break, the Millelith found some clues. You can take a look now."

As he spoke, Fang Xun handed the scorched letter to Ganyu.

Ganyu subconsciously took the letter.

Upon seeing the line 'release Osial's seal,' Ganyu was stunned at first, then immediately tensed up.

For Ganyu, who had witnessed the Archon War, Osial was undoubtedly a symbol of disaster.

If Osial were truly released, then the peace and stability of Liyue would be shattered!

Ganyu looked at Fang Xun with complex emotions in her beautiful eyes.

Was Mister Fang Xun looking so glum

because he was worried about Osial?

Mister Fang Xun, an outsider, cared so deeply for Liyue.

This surprised Ganyu greatly, but more than that, it filled her with admiration.

Mister Fang Xun is truly a person with deep feelings.

Ganyu immediately put the letter away, then looked up and said solemnly, "Mister Fang Xun, I need to report the matter of the Fatui and Osial to the Liyue Qixing and the Adepti immediately."

"Let's end our conversation here for today. See you next ti— next time!"

Ganyu originally had a lot of questions she wanted to ask Fang Xun to get answers to.

But clearly, there was no time to ask them now.

Compared to resolving her own confusion, Ganyu's top priority was to go and explain the situation to the Adepti and the Liyue Qixing.

She had to prevent Osial's revival!

Ganyu hurriedly bid farewell to Fang Xun and left Wangshu Inn.

Chapter 20: What Exactly Is This Kid Trying to Do?

Ganyu arrived in a hurry and left just as quickly.

Fang Xun wasn't surprised by this, after all, Ganyu was Liyue's top secretary and always very busy.

Compared to her, Fang Xun seemed like someone with nothing to do, his only job was taking care of the child.

Fang Xun looked down at Little Ningguang, who was sleeping in his arms.

He could tell the little girl hadn't had a good rest in a long time, so she was sleeping especially soundly.

She was so deeply asleep that Fang Xun's conversation with Ganyu hadn't even woken her up.

At this moment, Fang Xun noticed the little girl seemed to be mumbling something in her sleep. He leaned closer to listen.

"Ningguang, Ningguang wants to earn lots and lots of Mora,"

"So much that it's like the stars in the sky, impossible to count!"

The little girl's childish voice was filled with unusual seriousness, which made Fang Xun chuckle.

Even in her dreams, she was thinking about making money. This little girl was such a little money grubber.

But he couldn't blame Ningguang for being so focused on Mora, after all, she had lived a very difficult life since childhood, often struggling to get her next meal.

So Fang Xun could understand her strong desire to make money.

Ningguang stirred in her sleep, then continued, "Then I'll buy a really, really big house that doesn't let in the wind, and bring Mama to live there."

"That way, Mama won't wake up cold in the middle of the night, and we won't get rained on when it's stormy."

"And Brother Fang Xun, Ningguang wants to bring Brother Fang Xun to the big house too!"

"That way, I can see Brother Fang Xun every morning when I wake up~ hehe..."

The little girl's laughter was simple and honest, her words filled with longing for the future.

Fang Xun couldn't help but smile along with her.

Who would have thought that the aloof and dignified Tianquan Star, Ningguang, was so adorable as a child?

Little Ningguang wanted to buy a new house to bring her mother into, Fang Xun could understand this.

After all, the mother and daughter shared a deep bond, having relied on each other for so many years.

However, Little Ningguang saying she wanted to bring Fang Xun to live there too was a bit surprising.

It showed, from another angle, that Ningguang considered Fang Xun family.

Putting himself in her shoes, Fang Xun also really liked this little pitiful, Ningguang, and was extremely doting on this little secretary.

He knew that Little Ningguang often didn't even have enough to eat, so how good could her living environment be?

Since that was the case, why not buy a house and improve Ningguang's family's living conditions?

With his Talent, "What is scattered will return,"

Fang Xun wouldn't lose anything by buying things for Ningguang; in fact, he'd even make money.

This could also be a surprise for Little Ningguang.

While the little girl was asleep, he'd secretly prepare a house for her.

Her expression when she woke up would surely be priceless.

No sooner said than done, Fang Xun, carrying the little girl, left Wangshu Inn and returned to Liyue Harbor.

Since Ningguang, the little guide, was asleep, Fang Xun didn't know where to pick a location, so he'd have to find someone else to recommend one.

Soon, a reliable person subconsciously came to mind, Yujin, Ying'er's mother.

Fang Xun had previously learned from the Millelith

that they were able to arrive in time before the Treasure Hoarders could act entirely because of Yujin's help.

It was Yujin who, worried about Fang Xun and the others, had contacted the Millelith.

From this, it could be seen that Yujin, that mature beauty, besides enjoying driving, was also quite a good person.
