Protagonist:

Xuan Ge

"Sir, please state your identity."

A Xiuhui member wearing a white round-topped hat and white robes led knights to surround this massive giant pit. The knights' hands rested on their weapons, and the atmosphere instantly tightened.

Xuan Ge first glanced at Kathisia in his arms, then looked toward the arrivals.

"Do I need to pay for damages?"

Hearing this question, the leading Xiuhui member was momentarily stunned.

What kind of question is this?

"Not needed."

This strange man crashed onto the shore, didn't fall into the city, didn't cause massive panic; by rights, no compensation was needed.

"Then it's fine." Xuan Ge put Kathisia down, then said: "We... ah no... I mean, I, my name is Xuan Ge."

"We?"

The Xiuhui seized on the first word Xuan Ge let slip, but he didn't dwell on it, continuing: "Sir, please still state your identity, otherwise we can only ask you to come with us."

"Didn't I just say, I walk without changing my name, sit without changing my surname, I'm called Xuan Ge, are you deaf?"

Hearing this string of words, plus the attire and hairstyle, the Xiuhui member guessed this person came from Qilong.

Looking at the black-suited cloud-patterned luxurious robe, the other party appeared to be a person of wealth and nobility.

Just as the Xiuhui member was about to speak, a voice rang out, drawing everyone's attention.

"The accident here, the Motari Family will take over and compensate."

A white-haired, pink-skirted girl brought a white-haired, horned woman wearing a white Western suit over. She smiled sweetly, but her eyes looked like they were appraising value.

"And this black-haired, golden-eyed young man is also an honored guest invited by the Motari Family."

"The Motari Family..." Seeing Ke Lai Ta come personally, the Xiuhui member realized this was genuine.

The Motari Family controls the Efulade Vault and banking, basically dominating Li Na Xi Ta's financial sector, one of the most powerful families locally.

"Since he's the Motari Family's honored guest, then this matter will be left to Miss Ke Lai Ta."

The Xiuhui member yielded; since Miss Ke Lai Ta personally demanded the person, there was no need for conflict.

Although unknown why this man fell from the sky, this isn't rare in Solaris.

Heard that recently, over in Qilong's Jinzhou, there was also someone who fell from the sky.

"Motari, are they impressive?"

Xuan Ge didn't look at that silver-haired little girl, instead his gaze remained locked on Zan Ni.

Head has double horns, behind has tail.

Holy shit!

Dahlia is still chasing him.

Kathisia saw Xuan Ge asking her, she raised her head to look...

"Are you sure you're asking me?"

Kathisia puffed her cheeks slightly; she saw Xuan Ge's gaze seemed welded onto Zan Ni.

Seeing Xuan Ge turn his head to look at empty air and speak, Ke Lai Ta revealed slight confusion: "Hey, who are you talking to?"

"Hm?" Xuan Ge looked at her, then looked at the puff-cheeked Kathisia.

I see, Xuan Ge understood; Kathisia apparently can't be seen by others.

"Nothing."

Xuan Ge shook his head slightly, then took Kathisia's hand.

"Do you have business with me?"

"Nothing." Ke Lai Ta crossed her arms, "Just saw you fall from the sky, smash such a huge pit and be unharmed, so I got a bit curious."

This is a lie.

Ke Lai Ta carefully scrutinized Xuan Ge's appearance.

Male, golden pupils, ponytail...

Through cooperation with the Black Coast, she learned that Wanderer's appearance and movements.

And this man before her...

Aside from that ponytail, everything else seems to match.

And falling from that high up, not a scratch, truly formidable strength.

Then he should be the Wanderer...

"Alright then." Hearing this young lady spend money just out of curiosity, Xuan Ge didn't know what to say.

But still have to thank this little girl; if not for her intervention, he might have clashed with these Xiuhui people.

This isn't Teyvat; he doesn't have any past lives or present lives here.

Current him is completely just a stowaway.

How to prove himself, he currently truly has no way.

Seeing the atmosphere turn awkward, Ke Lai Ta also invited: "Want to go check out the Plaza District? They're preparing the Carnival Festival there."

This seaside is east of the Hidden Sea Xiuhui, not far from the Motalie District and Plaza District.

"No need, I plan to familiarize myself on my own."

Xuan Ge's dialogue stalled, and with Kathisia's small hand clenched tight, he exerted his full strength and finally managed to move his gaze away.

Afterward he continued speaking, wanting to exchange for some spending money.

"I forgot to bring money when I went out; since you're a young miss, I wonder if you're interested in gems."

Speaking, Xuan Ge threw out a gem tribute from a small nation. The gem shimmered with a deep-sea blue under the sunlight, as if light were slowly flowing inside it.

After he himself ascended the throne, the Xianzhou Empire's territory was vast.

With Xing Xiao and Hei Ta helping calculate, Xianzhou's domain accounted for roughly 27% of the entire Huan Yu's area.

This is an extremely exaggerated figure.

Because all of it is habitable zone.

Back when your Uncle Shou Zhu came and brought that wave of locust plague, he nearly ruined Huan Yu, leaving only half its size.

Every year... no, it should be every day, countless small nations — that is, planet-level powers — join Xianzhou's roster.

They pay tribute every year, seeking peace and safety.

Although he, this Xuan Emperor, didn't establish this rule, being in this position, only if he accepts will those people feel at ease.

So, for all kinds of treasures, he truly lacks nothing.

But words return.

Money, this he truly lacks.

Because tribute treasures can't be sold, only bestowed.

Once traded for money, Xianzhou would be a corporation even larger in scale than the Interstellar Peace Corporation.

So, he is an Emperor, not a boss; the nature is different.

"Huh?"

Ke Lai Ta, who was just about to speak, was thrown off by Xuan Ge's move.

She was just preparing to close the distance, but didn't expect Xuan Ge to suddenly want to barter goods for cash.

However her body still honestly received it.

"This texture and quality..."

Ke Lai Ta was attracted in one second; she had never seen a Blue Gem with temperature.

"Heard this was taken from the Earth Core Layer, and only after hundreds of millions of years of evolution did this one piece emerge."

Xuan Ge explained this gem's origin to Ke Lai Ta.

Although he isn't an expert, his own subordinates are.

Tribute also has a process; if they try to fool him this Emperor, it's a conquest in the name of deceiving the monarch.

"I'll take it back and appraise it."

Hearing Xuan Ge say Earth Core Layer, Ke Lai Ta found it very outrageous, but looking at this texture, it's as if Xuan Ge truly didn't lie.

This is truer than any genuine article she's ever seen; this has already exceeded her ability range.

Ke Lai Ta accepted the gem, looked at Xuan Ge, and continued inviting.

"I don't have much on me; how about you come with me for a trip?"

"Just give some spending money first; I'm not afraid you'll run off."

Xuan Ge still refused.

When he refused, he could feel Kathisia's small hand loosen slightly.

"Alright." Seeing she was refused a second time, Ke Lai Ta could only look at Zan Ni.

Zan Ni:...

"This is a deposit." Zan Ni took out her own salary card and handed it to Xuan Ge.

Xuan Ge received the black card and asked: "What's the password?"

"Not needed; you can just swipe directly when the time comes." Zan Ni finished speaking and retreated to behind Ke Lai Ta's side.

"Good." Xuan Ge accepted it, "Since there's nothing else, I'll leave first."

He picked up Kathisia, then looked at the separated building clusters on that sea surface.

Still brute force creates miracles.

Xuan Ge slightly bent his knees, holding Kathisia, and flew up.

The ground trembled, wind pressure blew rubble rolling all over the ground; Zan Ni steadied Ke Lai Ta.

"Flesh and strength are both very strong..."

Ke Lai Ta gave her analysis; to achieve this kind of fixed-point standing long jump style takeoff, that physical body strength is already not human.

His muscle density, bones, organs — all are superhuman level...

Not to mention falling from the sky and smashing a hundred-meter crater, he didn't even sprain a foot; one can imagine how strong this Xuan Ge is.
