Genshin Impact : Eerie Teyvat-Chapter 114: Ch : The physical infusion of soul and effort

Su Yuan immediately realized he had let his guard down.

Although he'd already had a vague suspicion earlier that Shopkeeper Liang might've been taken over by something eerie...

He had also thought that the chances of an ordinary person being controlled by an eerie presence were still relatively low at this point.

Surely he couldn't be that unlucky—to arrive in Liyue and, not long after, run into someone already corrupted, right?

But now that he was inside the room, the stench of blood and rot was becoming stronger and stronger...

Su Yuan looked to his side and noticed several large vats lined up.

Each one had a tea plant growing in it...

Only—the soil in the vats was blood-red.

And inside, there were things that looked suspiciously like rotting flesh...

When Su Yuan looked even closer, he could make out fingers, teeth... even eyeballs...

No wonder Shopkeeper Liang had said those things earlier.

Turns out he was using human flesh as fertilizer for growing these tea trees...

Just the thought of it made Su Yuan's stomach churn violently, the nausea nearly overwhelming him.

Who would've thought that the tea he'd just drunk... had actually come from here...

"Little friend Su Yuan... did you know..."

Shopkeeper Liang spoke as he slowly stepped forward...

"The tea trees of Miracle of Love, at the very beginning of their planting—when they're still tender shoots—must be watered with blood from the heart..."

"But a human heart is only so big. How much heart's blood can you really get from one person?"

"Even though I long to increase my yield, I simply can't..." freewebnσvel.cѳm

"And that—that is the biggest difference between me and those people at Qingce Village's Spring Tea House."

"They can mass-produce at will. They can cut corners and lower the quality..."

"But I am different. Every single tea tree I grow, every single leaf I harvest—each one is a creation poured with soul and heart's blood."

"And in the end, all of that fuses with my deep, passionate love... condensing into something so dazzling, so miraculous, that I named it Miracle of Love..."

As Shopkeeper Liang floated on in his poetic ramble, Su Yuan found himself utterly speechless.

He didn't even know what to say anymore...

Good god.

So we're talking about literally infusing soul and blood, huh?

The souls of the people he'd brutally killed... their heart's blood...

"But from the way you're describing it," Su Yuan couldn't help but snark, "it sounds like it's other people's souls and heart's blood you've been pouring in, huh?"

Since there was clearly no one nearby who could help him, and death seemed almost inevitable now, Su Yuan figured—might as well say whatever he wanted...

Su Yuan could feel the Delusion from the Fatui in his pocket—the one he had asked Arlecchino for before leaving Fontaine...

But it seemed like Arlecchino didn't have any spare Delusions on her at the time, so she just casually grabbed one off a Fatui Skirmisher - Cryogunner Legionnaires—and handed it over.

Poor Cryo fat guy... he just wanted to pick some raspberries and ended up getting beat up.

Now even his Delusion got requisitioned on the spot...

It might not be the same moment in time, or even the same Cryo fat guy, but the misery and humiliation were all the same.

"Other people's souls and heart's blood?"

"You're absolutely right. That does make a lot of sense..."

When Su Yuan said that, Shopkeeper Liang's expression turned oddly thoughtful, and he gave a slow, contemplative nod.

A wild thought flashed through Su Yuan's mind—wait a minute, this guy isn't gonna stab himself in the heart next, is he?

What, water the tea tree with his own heart's blood?

Go out with a bang and die for his twisted tea ideals?

What a romantic way to go...

"But it is my love that's the most important catalyst in creating Miracle of Love!"

"Maybe one day, my own heart's blood will become the morning dew that nourishes the tea trees. Maybe my frail body will turn into the fertile soil that sustains them..."

"But that day... is still far, far away."

"Right now, all I want is to turn you, Su Yuan—bearer of a Vision—into precious fertilizer for my tea trees!!!"

As Shopkeeper Liang roared, he lunged toward Su Yuan—but in the same instant, Su Yuan activated the Delusion with all his might!

He could feel it clearly—the Delusion was greedily devouring his life force, like a boundless black hole that knew no limits.

A surge of powerful Cryo energy burst out from Su Yuan's body!

However, compared to those who wielded Cryo Visions, the elemental power from the Delusion felt less pure, mixed with strange impurities...

Was it because the Delusion had been yanked off that Cryo fat guy?

So it was naturally Cryo-elemental?

Su Yuan had thought that Fatui Delusions could adapt and change their elemental affinity depending on the user...

But none of that mattered now—he could wield both Hydro and Cryo simultaneously, and freeze himself if he really had to!

Wriothesley had shown him this trick several times already.

Even if the eerie entities were immune to elemental damage, they couldn't resist the physical freeze reaction...

It might not completely stop the monster, but it could buy him a little time—and that was all he needed.

Wait a second—Su Yuan suddenly felt something was off.

Why did he think it happened several times?

Hadn't Wriothesley only frozen the Eerie Chevreuse once right in front of him?

But now wasn't the time to get caught up in details.

Su Yuan thrust out his left palm, unleashing a blast of Cryo energy, while his right hand erupted with Hydro energy.

The two elements collided in a marvelous chemical reaction, and Shopkeeper Liang was forcibly frozen in place...

At the same time, Su Yuan was turning over a possibility in his mind—

Shopkeeper Liang was just an ordinary person who had become Eerie; his strength wasn't particularly high.

And the reason Eerie Chevreuse had been able to break through Wriothesley's freeze was largely due to the Pyro Vision she possessed...

So if Su Yuan didn't stop, if he continued to unleash Cryo and Hydro in rapid succession—could he keep Shopkeeper Liang frozen indefinitely?

As he was contemplating his next move, the door to the room suddenly opened from the outside...

Standing in the doorway was a woman with short, dark blue hair and asymmetrical bangs.

Holy crap

Su Yuan hadn't expected that the first one-sided "old acquaintance" he'd run into after arriving in Liyue... would actually be Yelan!

Although Yelan was now dressed like a merchant, complete with sunglasses and a hat, Su Yuan still recognized her instantly!

Yelan took a small sniff of the air, then quickly scanned her surroundings...

"This scent... it's from a Fatui Delusion."

She spoke calmly.

"And there's also... the strong stench of blood."

Without another word, she drew her bow, and in the next instant, fired a Breakthrough Barb straight at Su Yuan!

Su Yuan instinctively dodged and quickly shouted, "Yelan! Calm down! Don't attack! Let me explain!"

"Oh?" Yelan looked at him with a mildly surprised expression. "I thought I disguised myself pretty well... yet you saw through me in an instant."

"You even called out my name directly..."

"Looks like the Fatui's intelligence network really isn't something to be underestimated."

Su Yuan realized—Yelan had misunderstood everything because of the energy emanating from the Delusion he carried...

Did she really think that he was the one responsible for all the blood and horror in here?
