After arriving at the port of Yilong Wharf in Chenyu Vale, Su Yuan and Kirara prepared to part ways...
According to her, even with the presence of the Eerie in Teyvat, as long as Teyvat doesn't explode, the delivery work can't stop...
Su Yuan could understand that sentint—if deliveries had stopped back in his original world, that would've been torture!
"Kirara, take care. We still don't know what's going on in Liyue right now..."
Su Yuan waved goodbye as he said,
"If anything seems wrong, don't hesitate—just run!"
After parting with Kirara, Su Yuan strolled around Yilong Wharf, asking around to see if any tea rchants were headed to Liyue Harbor and might be able to give him a lift.
After all, Chenyu Vale is in the northwest part of Liyue, while Liyue Harbor is in the southeast—one's in the upper left corner of the map, the other in the bottom right—pretty much diagonally across the entire region.
The distance was no joke.
Su Yuan had considered using a teleport waypoint to move quickly and conveniently...
But Aether had said the ley lines might already be corrupted by the Eerie, so it was better not to use the waypoints.
But after asking several tea rchants in a row, none were going to Liyue Harbor—most were headed toward Fontaine instead...
Which made sense, considering how close Fontaine was.
Tea from this region probably gets exported there more frequently.
So Su Yuan decided to change his target.
He'd go east to Qingce Village first!
Surely there would be people there supplying tea to Liyue Harbor.
"Fire! Fire! The tea warehouse is on fire! Soone help put it out!"
Just then, Su Yuan suddenly heard urgent shouting, and a thick, acrid sll of smoke hit his nose.
He turned his head to look—and saw that a tea shop nearby had burst into roaring flas!
Many people had already noticed and imdiately grabbed buckets of water to help fight the fire...
Even the Millelith stationed in the area quickly joined the rescue effort.
But the fire seed to be spreading extrely fast, and all these firefighting efforts felt like a drop in the bucket...
Of course, the dried finished tea leaves were extrely flammable by nature...
Once the fire started, it would spread rapidly, posing a major threat to people's lives and property!
"Sigh... If only I could still control Hydro right now..." Su Yuan murmured with a sigh.
"If I could, I'd be able to put out this fire easily..."
But in the very next mont, Su Yuan was startled to notice sothing stirring and forming inside him...
He looked down at his palm in surprise—only to see a sphere of water forming there!
"What's going on? Didn't I already return the Sovereign Dragon's blood to Neuvillette?"
Su Yuan said in utter confusion:
"Then why can I still control Hydro?"
"Could it be... what the ssage in my right palm ant when it said I have a good mory?"
"My muscle mory—does it an that anything I've experienced, I'll never forget?"
"Ah, no ti to think about that now—I need to help put out the fire!"
As he spoke, Su Yuan imdiately joined the efforts to fight the blaze!
Everyone around watched in astonishnt as this man, manipulating the Hydro elent like a god descending from the heavens, leapt into action to fight the fire.
Applause broke out one after another in admiration.
Thanks to Su Yuan's help, the tea warehouse fire was quickly extinguished.
"Heavens, is this what a Hydro Vision holder is capable of? That efficiency is incredible!" one of the bystanders exclaid.
"Hm... I need to seriously consider spending big money to hire a Hydro Vision user as my warehouse's fire prevention system," muttered a potbellied boss with a mustache and round glasses.
Nearby, the Millelith soldiers stood at attention and saluted, saying to Su Yuan, "Young man, thank you for your assistance!"
"Please leave your na so we can report back to the Ministry of Civil Affairs—they definitely need to award you a comndation for your heroic act!"
Su Yuan thought for a mont.
Leaving his na and gaining so recognition didn't sound like a bad idea.
"Alright," Su Yuan nodded and replied with a smile.
"My na is Su Yuan—'Su' as in 'Tiramisu,' and 'Yuan' as in 'ruins and rubble.'"
"Mr. Su Yuan, thank you so much!"
At that mont, a woman with brown hair tied in a single ponytail approached Su Yuan and spoke:
"Allow to briefly introduce myself. My na is Quezhi, and I'm a waitress at the Jiulue Teahouse.'"
"The warehouse that caught fire just now belongs to our teahouse—it stores a large quantity of our tea and goods."
"If it weren't for your heroic intervention, Mr. Su Yuan, our teahouse would've suffered far greater losses."
"That's why I've co on behalf of the manager to invite you, our great benefactor, to visit Jiulue Teahouse."
"Our manager would very much like to et you in person."
"Then I shall humbly accept the invitation," Su Yuan replied with a light chuckle, agreeing without much hesitation.
Jiulue Teahouse seed to be quite well-known—not just in Yilong Wharf and Chenyu Vale, but perhaps throughout all of Liyue.
It was considered a fairly established and reputable business.
Although Su Yuan had now beco the teahouse's benefactor, he didn't really need any sort of reward.
He only had one small request: to ask the teahouse's manager to arrange soone to take him to Liyue Harbor.
As Su Yuan followed Quezhi on the way to Jiulue Teahouse, in a corner nearby, soone watched the scene with great interest—a person with deep blue, side-swept short hair, purple lipstick, and a white sleeved cape draped over their shoulders.
That person toyed with a die in their hand, observing everything with an amused expression...
.............
anwhile, in the northern part of the Suru desert, Aether and Paimon were being tornted by the relentless sandstorms...
Cough cough... "Traveler... are you sure we're not lost?"
Paimon was coughing from the choking sand, barely able to speak.
"Did we even co this way with Kirara when we were heading to Fontaine?"
"Uh..."
Aether didn't quite know what to say either.
Without the use of teleport waypoints, things had beco incredibly inconvenient...
He never thought of himself as directionally challenged before...
"Paimon, didn't you say you were Teyvat's best guide? If I really took a wrong turn, shouldn't you have told right away and pointed us in the right direction?"
"But the sandstorm's so strong right now! No one can tell which way to go!" Paimon replied helplessly.
"Alright then, Paimon, let's just go find so shelter from the sand for now."
Aether spotted a cave entrance not far away that led underground, so he headed in that direction.
"Once the storm passes, we'll look for the right path again!"
But just as Aether and Paimon entered the underground cave, they noticed sothing not far ahead—an inactive teleport waypoint.
"Huh? There's actually a teleport waypoint here?" Aether said in surprise.
"The locations of these waypoints are so bizarre and unpredictable! Who in the world set them up?"
As he spoke, he reached out and touched it—and the teleport waypoint activated.
But strangely enough, once it activated, the waypoint emitted a normal blue glow?
"Huh? Does that an the ley lines in this area haven't been corrupted? Why is this waypoint functioning normally?"
Though both Aether and Paimon were puzzled, they also found themselves caught in a dilemma...
Traveling on foot was just too exhausting, but now that this teleport waypoint seed to be functioning properly... should they use it?
