At midnight, a maid died outside his room, and a mysterious woman calling herself “Death” warned that mortals should not interfere with life and death.

• Wu Yi revived Teppei, criticized his reckless use of the Delusion, and persuaded him to rely on his own efforts to grow stronger.
• Wu Yi examined Teppei’s Delusion, infused it with vitality, and made its Electro power surge; Kokomi then arrived and permitted him to keep it.

• Wu Yi studied the Delusion in his guest room until midnight, when he found a maid dead in the corridor and heard a woman speak as “Death.”

Wu Yi learned that the being possessing the maid was Ronova, the Ruler of Death, one of the shadows of the Heavenly Principles.

• After several days of treating soldiers and modifying Delusions, Wu Yi was summoned by the Fatui Harbinger La Signora.

La Signora met Wu Yi outside Bourou Village and tried to recruit him into the Fatui after praising his medical and Delusion research. Their tense exchange ended with her formal invitation, while Wu Yi’s display of seven powered Delusions left her wary of his strength.

• Wu Yi showed La Signora seven charged Delusions of different elements, shocking her with the possibility that he could wield them all.
• La Signora set aside her posturing and formally invited Wu Yi to join the Fatui.

Rosalyne tried to recruit Wu Yi into the Fatui, first praising his medical skills and Delusion modifications, then arguing that Snezhnaya could offer him a place to heal the sick and wounded. Wu Yi left her motives uncertain and reflected that his devotion to healing came from the path he had once walked with his teacher and senior fellow disciple.

• Rosalyne offered Wu Yi a place in the Fatui and denied that she had come to seize his technology or force him to Snezhnaya.
• Wu Yi rejected money and power as reasons to join and asked Rosalyne to explain what the Fatui could offer him.
• Rosalyne guessed that Wu Yi's power was tied to medicine and that he would go wherever people needed healing.

• Wu Yi remembered walking the path of healing with his teacher and senior fellow disciple, though they had since been separated by unknown fates.

• Rosalyne offered Wu Yi access to information about future conflicts and difficult illnesses so he could find patients to treat.

Wu Yi learned that the Tsaritsa had accepted his conditions and joined the resistance’s surprise attack on Inazuma City, where Kazuha saved Lumine from the Raiden Shogun’s killing blow. After the Traveler and the Shogun vanished into a spatial rift, Wu Yi entered Tenshukaku and found La Signora reduced to ashes, then resolved to resurrect her.

• Kokomi asked Wu Yi about La Signora’s recruitment offer, and he agreed to keep in touch with her if he went to Snezhnaya.

• The Raiden Shogun attacked Lumine outside Tenshukaku, but Kazuha’s reawakened Vision let him block her strike before the Shogun and Lumine disappeared into a spatial rift.
• Wu Yi entered the empty Tenshukaku, found Kujou Sara unconscious and La Signora reduced to ashes, and decided he could resurrect her with his power of Abundance.

• Wu Yi reconstructed Rosalyne's body from her ashes and pulled her soul back from beneath Teyvat, reviving her.

• A rift opened in Tenshukaku, and a voice asked Wu Yi whether it was fun to cause trouble.

Wu Yi met Ronova, the Ruler of Death, and explained his independent devotion to the Path of Abundance. After Ronova reflected on having no companions, Wu Yi asked whether she would marry him.

• Ronova emerged from a rift, and Wu Yi mistook her for Idrila before she introduced herself as the Ruler of Death.
• Wu Yi explained that Idrila embodied Beauty, and Ronova forgave his mistaken identification.
• Ronova asked about Wu Yi’s belief in Abundance, and he explained that he followed the Path rather than blindly worshipping its Aeon.
• Ronova praised Wu Yi as an excellent follower and companion, then privately lamented that no one wanted to walk alongside Death.
• Wu Yi asked Ronova whether she had a partner and whether she would marry him.

Wu Yi unexpectedly proposed to Ronova, the Ruler of Death, and admitted he was drawn to her despite barely knowing her. Ronova rejected the idea and insisted she would still fulfill her duty, but she softened enough to praise his candor and courage.

• Wu Yi proposed marrying Ronova, leaving her startled and asking why he would choose a partner after meeting her only twice.
• Wu Yi decided not to analyze his feelings and told Ronova it was love at first sight, or perhaps lust at first sight.

• Wu Yi said he had no expectation of preferential treatment and had spoken because he admired her beauty.
• Ronova rejected Wu Yi and said she hoped not to see him again, then praised his eye for beauty, candor, and courage.

Wu Yi explained his past experiences with being treated as a superior, while Ronova insisted on her divine status and revealed why she had killed Rosalyne and Kujou Sara. After explaining that they would be resurrected with only brief memory loss, Ronova asked why Wu Yi had rescued Rosalyne, and he answered that he had done so because he was a physician.

• Wu Yi recalled fleeing a planet where the Denizens of Abundance had revered him and offered him holy virgins, along with the many powerful roles he had played elsewhere.
• Ronova dismissed Wu Yi's experience of superiority, then relaxed when he agreed that mortals could not comprehend the true sky and said she would consider leniency for his rule-breaking.

• Ronova asked Wu Yi why he had knowingly taken Rosalyne's soul back from the Ley Lines, offering not to punish him if he had been forced to act.
• Wu Yi said nobody had forced him and that he had saved Rosalyne because he wanted to, explaining that a physician could not stand by and let someone die.

Ronova tried to kill Wu Yi after sparing him from punishment for reviving someone, but her Authority over Death had no effect on him. Wu Yi concealed the reason and teased her, leaving Ronova flustered and demanding he describe her more grandly.

• Ronova said she would return the revived woman's soul to the Ley Lines and erase Wu Yi's memories of the incident.

• Wu Yi called Ronova adorable, and she blushed before telling him to describe her as beautiful, elegant, dignified, and gracious.

Wu Yi prevented Ronova from claiming Rosalyne’s soul by using Soul Grafting Surgery to create a substitute that satisfied the Ley Lines. Ronova recognized him as the Fifth Descender and proposed three rules for his future efforts to save people.

• Ronova’s Authority over Death failed against Wu Yi, and she suspected he might be connected to the Ruler of Life.
• Wu Yi offered to sate the Ley Lines and crafted a substitute soul from a fragment of Rosalyne’s soul and a strand of his own soul.

• Ronova told Wu Yi that another outsider had appeared in Snezhnaya around the same time, but had died after touching the Curse of Death and revived without showing special abilities.
• Ronova called Wu Yi the Fifth Descender and proposed an agreement with three rules for him to follow when saving people.

Ronova laid down rules for Wu Yi’s resurrection ability and made him her apostle, giving him a token to summon her. After Ronova left Tenshukaku, Rosalyne awoke with no memory of her death and resurrection, and Wu Yi prepared to explain what had happened.

• Ronova told Wu Yi he could save the living freely, but had to notify her and soothe the Ley Lines to resurrect the dead, and could not extract souls already merged with the Ley Lines.
• Ronova ordered Wu Yi to keep his resurrection ability secret and make the Raiden Shogun and the Traveler believe he had saved La Signora before she died.
• Ronova required Wu Yi to perform one task for her for every person he saved from death, leaving him owing her two tasks, and named him her apostle.
• Ronova gave Wu Yi a black feather that could summon her or protect him, then departed through a spatial rift.
• Rosalyne woke in Tenshukaku with her memories of dying and being resurrected erased, and accused Wu Yi of taking her clothes.

Rosalyne regained consciousness in Tenshukaku with no memory of her defeat, and Wu Yi explained that she had lost a Duel Before the Throne and survived the Raiden Shogun’s strike. Rosalyne rejected his suggestion that Snezhnaya might abandon her and decided to return there with Wu Yi to confront Inazuma and meet the Tsaritsa.

• Wu Yi asked Rosalyne to recall why she had come to Tenshukaku, and she remembered her diplomatic meeting and subduing Kujou before her memories cut off.
• Rosalyne asked where the Raiden Shogun was, and Wu Yi said she had gone to suppress the rebels.

• Rosalyne realized the Raiden Shogun had struck her down and considered whether the Tsaritsa would abandon her after her death.
• Rosalyne accused Wu Yi of trying to undermine her loyalty, then acknowledged he had saved her life.
• Rosalyne decided to leave Inazuma for Snezhnaya with Wu Yi and take him to meet the Tsaritsa.

Wu Yi spent seven days aboard a Fatui ship after Rosalyne swiftly evacuated Inazuma, treating the crew and studying Liyue medicine. He found Rosalyne alone in the dining room, staring at a letter, and she asked why he had come.

• Rosalyne explained that she had left Inazuma to avoid becoming a hostage and had arranged for Fatui agents to keep gathering intelligence.
• Wu Yi examined Kolya, confirmed his Delusion-related ailments were cured, and advised him to rest and take a prescription.

• Rosalyne recalled that she had complained when Wu Yi sat apart from her before, and Wu Yi reminded her exactly when she had said it.
• Rosalyne wondered why Wu Yi affected her emotions, while Wu Yi realized her Abundance-created body made her feel closer to him.
• Rosalyne told Wu Yi that a letter from The Knave concerned communicating with children, then explained that she had trained Odette and hoped she would leave the Fatui.
• Wu Yi guessed that Rosalyne's strict, indirect way of showing care had strained her relationship with Odette, and Rosalyne asked how to improve it.
• Wu Yi advised Rosalyne to express her care honestly, wait for Odette to mature, or ask a third party to mediate.
• Rosalyne considered his advice and asked Wu Yi whether he was interested in ballet performances.
