• Ningguang told Keqing that Asura Yaksha had taught Ganyu spells so she could kill him if he succumbed to madness, then reminded Keqing that their wager had been decided.

After learning the truth about Asura Yaksha, Ganyu realized she had spent two thousand years denying her guilt and came to the Yaksha’s old home to apologize. She admitted to Bonanus that she had come because of Asura, but Bonanus’s cold response left Ganyu facing the depth of her remorse.

Mo Fan discovered that his past as Asura Yaksha had been exposed, and worried that Ganyu and the Five Yaksha would be driven to desperate acts by the truth. As he considered how to prevent a tragedy, Ganyu addressed him in a Teyvat-wide livestream and begged him to come see her again.

• Mo Fan found Ronova exhausted after she stayed up all night watching videos and left her sleeping while he went to breakfast.
• At Wangshu Inn, Mo Fan heard guests discussing a video that revealed Asura Yaksha's past and the Liyue Qixing's plans to clear his name.
• Mo Fan recalled how he had absorbed Liyue's lingering karmic debt and disguised himself as a villain to spare the other Yaksha guilt over his sacrifice.
• Mo Fan decided Rex Lapis would intervene if Ganyu and the Five Yaksha reacted recklessly, but he knew he still had to address the exposure himself.
• Ganyu appeared on a livestream with Ningguang and Keqing, apologized to Master Asura, and asked him to come find her.

After Liyue cleared Asura Yaksha’s name and announced a hundred-million-Mora bounty for finding him, Mo Fan feared his identity would cause conflict between Liyue and Mondstadt. He hurried toward Liyue Harbor with Ronova, but Xiao stopped them after sensing Karmic Debt on her.

• Ningguang confirmed that the video about Asura Yaksha was true, announced that Liyue had cleared his name, and offered a hundred-million-Mora bounty for finding him.

• Fearing that revealing himself could spark a war, Mo Fan woke Ronova and left Wangshu Inn for Liyue Harbor.
• Xiao blocked Mo Fan and Ronova, pointed his spear at Ronova, and demanded to know why she carried such a strong aura of Karmic Debt.

Xiao mistook Ronova’s immense Karmic Debt for a threat to Liyue and confronted her, but Mo Fan revealed the Asura Yaksha’s familiar aura to make Xiao recognize him. Xiao excitedly called Mo Fan his brother, while Mo Fan kept his identity secret to protect Ronova.

• Xiao warned Ronova not to approach Liyue because her Karmic Debt reminded him of the resentment that had killed the Asura Yaksha.
• Mo Fan weighed leaving Liyue against persuading Xiao to accept Ronova and decided to speak with Xiao.

• Xiao recognized the aura and excitedly asked whether Mo Fan was really Brother Asura.
• Mo Fan stopped Xiao from saying the name aloud and chose to keep his identity secret, especially to protect Ronova.

Mo Fan brought Ronova toward Liyue after Xiao agreed to keep her identity secret, while the Yaksha began gathering at Bosacius’s urgent request. On the road, Mo Fan spotted the Blonde Traveler being chased by monsters and rushed to help.

• Mo Fan asked Xiao to leave Ronova alone, and Xiao agreed without learning that she was the Ruler of Death.
• Xiao reflected on Mo Fan’s return and resolved to keep his identity secret, then spoke with Indarias about people discussing Asura Yaksha again.

• Mo Fan brought Ronova to Liyue Harbor, registered with the Adventurers’ Guild, sold a Ruin Guard core, and rented a spacious home.
• Mo Fan left to take another commission, and Ronova decided to find work to help support him.

After watching a bonus video reveal that Asura Yaksha turned back time to save Guizhong, the adepti speculated that Celestia had erased him from their memories and hoped he was still alive. Ganyu remained withdrawn over Asura, while Zhongli suggested the Temporal Traveler might have reincarnated in recent Liyue history without revealing what he knew about Mo Fan.

• Cloud Retainer and the other adepti discussed how Asura Yaksha had saved Guizhong by turning back time and guessed that Celestia had rewritten the world's laws to erase him from their memories.
