Protagonist:

Xuan Ge

"How did the screen go black?"

Klee wanted to go up and tap it, but she passed through the light curtain and nearly fell.

That sway of Klee's nearly scared Venti sick.

Venti immediately stepped forward and scooped Klee up; he couldn't let Klee get hurt.

Right now Klee is Teyvat's precious treasure; not even a bump or scrape is allowed.

Xuan Ge's words to Alice about assassinating the Emperor — this appears to be a threat, but in reality it is a disclosure of his power and influence.

Countless galaxies — what kind of concept is that!?

Moreover, Xuan Ge didn't even say just how large the territories he possesses actually are.

"Where are my dad and mom?"

Klee was somewhat unhappy; she had been watching perfectly fine, then Dad suddenly waved his hand and the screen went black.

Venti coaxed Klee with a smile: "Uh... your dad and mom are busy right now."

"Then does that mean there's a Klee?" Upon hearing this, Klee bounced happily.

The women: Alice is still provoking.

Right now, whether it's Morax or the Three Shoguns, all are in a stage of knowing but not understanding.

Alice, this Teyvat magic pill, actually gave Xuan Ge a daughter, and hid it so deeply.

Moreover, Klee bears absolutely none of Xuan Ge's facial features; otherwise she would have been recognized the moment she arrived in Mondstadt.

First, Barbatos would definitely recognize her; second, the Lawrence Clan would too — after all, those two are the ones on Mondstadt's side most familiar with Xuan Ge.

"Hehe, should be, um, should be."

Venti didn't know how to answer Klee's straight-ball question, so he could only smile and perfunctorily brush it off.

"Hehe, Mommy said she likes fighting with Daddy the most, said they're gonna fight for a long, long time~"

Klee spoke with childish innocence, laughing as she spilled the beans on how long Alice and Xuan Ge have been at it.

The women: Alice is still provoking.

"Venti, you should take Klee back."

Zhongli spoke, but he still had his back to everyone.

"Okay, okay."

Venti knew it was bad for Klee to stay in a den of wolves; although these women wouldn't do anything to Klee, they could totally do something to him.

Istaroth's murderous gaze had locked onto him several times already; if he didn't send her off, he was afraid he'd be done for.

Under the women's hostile gazes, Venti then turned into a green wind and left the place.

"Hmph." The Raiden Shogun let out a cold snort; now none of them have the face to mock Xianyun, because they've all become clowns.

No one here could have imagined that Xuan Ge would actually be exploited by this woman Alice.

"Why would Xuan Ge like this type?"

Xianyun was thoroughly puzzled; doesn't he like big ones the most? How could he be so into a mischievous type like Alice?

And it's even the monopolizing kind — as if she's the only one for him.

"Our focus shouldn't be placed only on Alice."

Yae Miko decided to stop hiding; she needs to reveal intelligence and fish for others' information.

"Divine Child, you know some things, right?"

Raiden Ei looked at the Divine Child; here, she is the one who understands Xuan Ge the most.

The novels the Divine Child writes — she's never stopped updating them, and even secretly had Kujou Sara custom-order:

"The Divine General Won't Dream of the Thunder God Senior"

And they absolutely had to be R18+, otherwise she'd find them boring.

The Three Shoguns didn't speak, but they all looked over in unison.

"Just now Xuan Ge revealed the Xianzhou Emperor's identity, so our attention should focus heavily on the word 'Emperor'."

Rhinedottir asked: "Yae Miko, do you mean Xuan Ge once encountered someone very similar to Alice?"

"Not exactly." The Divine Child shook her head. "It should be said that Alice and a certain person by the Xianzhou Emperor's side are very similar."

Actually she wanted to say that Alice is very likely a lower-tier version of a certain person by Xuan Ge's side.

Because before pursuing Alice, Xuan Ge once uttered a name.

Dahlia.

The reason she's so certain this isn't a flower name is because every time Xuan Ge mentions Dahlia, it involves some adult matters.

So she has reason to suspect that Xuan Ge was trained into this philandering state by that person called Dahlia.

Of course, this is just her intuition; she doesn't know how accurate it is.

"Mm, that makes sense."

The Raiden Shogun agreed. She doesn't think Alice is all that great; after all, the three Raiden sisters, from any angle, are far stronger than Alice.

"Then if we follow this line of reasoning further..."

Istaroth followed the Divine Child's train of thought and voiced her own idea.

"Then Xianyun wouldn't have offered herself so quickly."

"What are you talking about!?" Xianyun was already furious, and hearing this she exploded instantly.

Xianyun then looked at Zhongli, speaking with some grievance: "Lord Emperor, look at her."

Zhongli took a deep breath, turning back to glance at Istaroth and Xianyun.

If he could, he would actually agree with Istaroth's words.

But as the Emperor, he absolutely cannot say that.

"Istaroth, please speak more clearly."

Zhongli ultimately still chose to stand on Xianyun's side, after all this is Liyue's final fallback.

Although Xianyun slipped up, she still firmly holds the position of Xuan Ge's master, so dedicating herself is only a matter of time.

"Xianyun, aren't you curious why Xuan Ge insisted on waiting for you at Ao Cang Mountain?"

Istaroth pointed out the crux, which is also the question she has puzzled over to this day.

Why did Xuan Ge have to come to Liyue, why not go to Inazuma which he likes most?

"Heh, what's so difficult about this."

Xianyun pushed up her glasses, putting on a look of having a plan in mind.

"The Xianzhou Emperor, immortals, both carry the character 'Xian', isn't that the reason Xuan Ge came specially to find me?"

Zhongli: "..."

"Ah, what kind of cold joke is this, so cold." Rhinedottir forced a laugh.

"If you think this immortal's words are wrong, then you say it."

Xianyun let out a cold snort, how would she know why Xuan Ge sought her out first.

Besides her being good-looking, large-chested, long-legged, slender-waisted, and good at storytelling, Xianyun really couldn't think of any other reason.

"Is there a possibility that Xuan Ge is growing according to the route from the Xianzhou period."

Rhinedottir hit the nail on the head, speaking words that stunned everyone present, including Xuan Ge five hundred years ago who was diligently cultivating.

"Darling?"

Alice's hair was disheveled, her whole body wrapped in sweat, she released the arms wrapped around Xuan Ge's neck, then gently stroked his cheek.

"Nothing."

Xuan Ge finished speaking, then continued burying his head in cultivation.

"Why would you say that?"

Xianyun was somewhat puzzled, does this growth still have a fixed route?

"Why did Xuan Ge return to five hundred years ago, and why must he walk it again."

Rhinedottir's words paused slightly here, then she smiled helplessly:

"Of course, he absolutely will not give up any big one, this is the absolute premise."

"You mean, before Xuan Ge became Emperor on Xianzhou he also had a master, and this master is like Xianyun, also a loser dog?"

Ruo Na Wa felt she had seen through things somewhat, this Divine Child really has something, and those romance novels really weren't written for nothing.

When she has time, she'll have to buy a few copies to study carefully.

"Right, following this logic to deduce, one can indeed guess some things, but only some." Rhinedottir nodded.

Alice should be like someone Xuan Ge knows, but absolutely not that person herself.

And Xianyun's identity as master is certain, so Xuan Ge also had a master on the Xianzhou side.

"You two are very impolite, you know?"

Xianyun glared at these two women speaking of her as a loser dog so matter-of-factly, she was really getting angry.

"Sorry Miss Xianyun, we need to thank you."

Rhinedottir proactively apologized, then immediately poured oil on the fire.

"Because you successfully let Xuan Ge slip from your hands, this gave others the opportunity to make a move."

She can now confirm one point: that Xianzhou master is definitely like Xianyun, both letting Xuan Ge slip away at the critical moment.

Otherwise with Xianyun's such figure and durability, Xuan Ge absolutely would not go find other women.

On the Luo Fu Xian Zhou, Jing Liu who was discussing the fake Xuan Ge with Jing Yuan suddenly sneezed.

"Jing Liu, did you suffer some hidden injury?"

Seeing Jing Liu suddenly like this, Jing Yuan thought the fake Xuan Ge had dealt her a killing blow.

After all he himself was nearly killed, and even fell into demonic yin body.

"It's nothing." Jing Liu waved her hand, then in her heart began silently greeting Da Li Hua.

She just faintly felt a pang of heartache.

That feeling was as if Da Li Hua was mocking her to her face again, saying she clearly could steadily grasp Xuan Ge, yet precisely because of that layer of master-disciple relationship she let him slip away.
