Genshin: Ningguang or Little Pitiful, Invested by Me

After using 'Chizuru' twice in a row, Fang Xun leaped high into the air, riding the wind currents.

He surveyed the Jueyun Karst from above, searching for Ganyu's figure.

In truth, Fang Xun didn't need to search intentionally.

After flying west for a short while, Fang Xun clearly heard the sound of a bow being drawn and arrows loosed, along with the roars of monsters.

Immediately after, Fang Xun spotted Ganyu standing on a strategically advantageous high ground.

At her feet, a group of adult Rock Lizards had gathered.

The sheer number of Rock Lizards was immense, surging forward like an overwhelming tide.

From Fang Xun's vantage point looking down from above, it felt as though the very earth was being consumed by the Rock Lizards.

At the same time, Fang Xun also noticed, that a dense black smoke emanated from the adult Rock Lizards.

They seemed to have lost their minds, becoming exceptionally ferocious, and attacked Ganyu without hesitation.

Fang Xun felt Ganyu might need his help, so he flew in her direction.

Ganyu naturally noticed Fang Xun and Qiqi flying towards her.

She had intended to tell Fang Xun and Qiqi not to come, that she could handle these Rock Lizards alone.

However, the attacks from the Rock Lizards were too dense and fierce, forcing Ganyu to fight while retreating.

Facing the onslaught of several Rock Lizards, Ganyu did not panic but dodged nimbly.

Not only that, but Ganyu was also able to calmly find opportunities, utilizing the terrain to shoot arrows and counterattack.

Many only knew Ganyu as Liyue's top secretary, but they didn't know Ganyu had also experienced the Archon War and survived.

This meant Ganyu's combat prowess was not to be underestimated.

Ganyu drew her bow, and a potent Ice Element continuously gathered at the arrowhead.

The next second, she loosed the arrow, which pierced directly through the Rock Lizard closest to her.

Even though these Rock Lizards had been strengthened, they still couldn't withstand one of Ganyu's Frostflake Arrows.

Ganyu, being half-Immortal, could more than handle these Ancient Rock Dragon Lizards.

Even so, Ganyu had her frustrations.

That is, although she could kill a Rock Lizard with a single arrow, the adult Rock Lizards moved far too quickly. Coupled with their burrowing and leaping abilities for mobility, it made Ganyu's arrows easily miss.

If only I could freeze them.

Ganyu sighed with some helplessness.

After all, she could only utilize Ice Element power.

To achieve a freezing effect, besides the Ice Element, Water Element was also needed for coordination.

But at this critical juncture, where could she find Water Element?

Just then, Fang Xun and Qiqi landed smoothly on the same plane as Ganyu.

During their flight, Fang Xun had also noticed Ganyu's predicament.

Now, to make those agile Rock Lizards stop, the best method was to achieve a Permafrost Flow through elemental reactions.

The so-called Permafrost Flow involved continuously applying Hydro and Cryo to monsters to achieve repeated freezing effects.

In the game, for Ganyu to achieve Permafrost Flow, her team only needed to include Mona to achieve the effect.

This was because Ganyu's Elemental Burst could continuously apply Cryo to monsters, while Mona's Elemental Burst continuously applied Hydro, perfectly complementing Ganyu's skill mechanics.

Fang Xun had recently acquired Mona's Elemental Burst.

He could completely take Mona's place and cooperate with Ganyu to achieve the Permafrost effect.

"Miss Ganyu, perhaps I can help share some of the pressure."

As he spoke, magic circles began to rise from beneath Fang Xun's feet.

These magic circles were now emitting a dazzling glow, and starlight patterns appeared around Fang Xun.

Bright, pure white starlight leaped, and brilliant light illuminated the entirety of Jueyun Karst.

The next second, the sky changed drastically.

Raindrops pattered against the ground, wetting Ganyu and the monsters.

For a moment, Ganyu was somewhat surprised.

She hadn't expected that Fang Xun could use Water Element powers in addition to Ice Element.

Looking across all of Liyue, and even the Teyvat Continent, she had never heard of anyone being able to wield two elemental powers simultaneously.

It was truly incredible.

Not only that, Ganyu could also clearly feel that the skills Fang Xun used were somewhat special.

That is, the rain that hit her body wasn't cold and wet, but instead possessed an indescribable warmth.

Ganyu could clearly feel that, under the amplification effect of Fang Xun's skills, the dormant power within her body was also awakened.

This feeling was like how the Immortals had bestowed power upon her many years ago.

Ganyu had no time to marvel; the pressing matter at hand was to deal with these monsters.

"Falling like glaze."

Ganyu raised her hand and sent an Ice Spirit Bead into the sky.

That was her Elemental Burst, 'Celestial Shower'.

For a time, rain mixed with ice shards fell alternately from the sky.

Those Rock-Lizard Lizards, darting everywhere, were instantly frozen in place upon simultaneously touching both Ice and Water Elements.

With the Rock-Lizard Lizards unable to jump around, they became living targets in Ganyu's eyes.

She raised her bow and shot arrow after arrow, clean and swift, without any wasted movement, and each arrow hit a monster's weak point.

Meanwhile, Fang Xun and Qiqi were not idle either; they also joined the battle.

Little Qiqi wielded the axe she used for chopping trees today, casting Cloud Retainer's Swordplay.

Despite Qiqi's petite physique, the powerful burst of strength she unleashed was more than enough to shatter these frozen Rock-Lizard Lizards.

She trotted on her short legs, weaving through the monsters.

Fang Xun, on the other hand, used two stages of 'Chizuru' to gather these adult Rock-Lizard Lizards together, making it convenient for Ganyu to deal with multiple monsters at once.

The two cooperated quite harmoniously.

Ganyu also felt an unprecedented sense of ease.

With Fang Xun gathering the monsters, her hit rate greatly increased.

In just a blink of an eye, all the out-of-control Rock-Lizard Lizards were eliminated.

"Miss Ganyu, are you alright?" Fang Xun asked, carrying Qiqi in his arms as he walked towards Ganyu.

"Thank you for your concern, Mister Fang Xun. I... I'm fine," Ganyu said, shaking her head gently. "Thank you both so much today."

"Because of your help, my work has been reduced considerably."

If Ganyu could handle these Rock-Lizard Lizards alone, the answer would definitely be yes, but it would have taken considerable time and energy.

With the help of Fang Xun and Qiqi now, it could be said to have been twice the result with half the effort.

At this moment, Ganyu noticed a trace of blood on Fang Xun's wrist.

She instinctively let out a cry: "Mister Fang Xun, your hand seems to be injured!"

Fang Xun looked down and saw that a trickle of blood had indeed seeped through his wrist.

It was likely from the ice shards splashing when he was gathering the monsters using 'Chizuru' earlier, which had accidentally grazed his arm.

But it was nothing serious, just a minor injury; he didn't even feel any pain.

If Ganyu hadn't pointed it out, Fang Xun wouldn't have even noticed.

Regarding this, Fang Xun chuckled and said, "Miss Ganyu, this little injury is nothing. The wound will probably heal soon."

Upon hearing this, Ganyu immediately shook her head and said, "That won't do. Any injury needs to be properly treated."

"Moreover, these monsters have been contaminated. I'm worried the contamination might invade your body, so we must take it seriously."

As Ganyu spoke, she took out a clean, white handkerchief from her clothes.
