Under the shroud of Xavier's Anemo element power, everyone ascended into the sky.
Shenhe was also a little emotional at this moment; although Xavier's control over Anemo element power wasn't as mature as her master's.
From a strength perspective, the difference was probably not too great.
What was important was that Xavier was still so young, with immense potential, and would surely surpass his master in the future.
"Xavier, can you slow down a bit...?"
Xingqiu always had that sickly appearance; as soon as Xavier sped up, Xingqiu would feel his insides churning.
Xiangling saw Xingqiu's condition and asked with concern, "Xingqiu, I suggest you go to Bubu Pharmacy to get checked out when you get back."
Xingqiu nodded and said, "You're right, I was already thinking of doing that, otherwise, I probably wouldn't be able to eat a single bite today..."
"Poor Xingqiu, sigh..."
Chongyun sighed, seemingly unable to do anything for his good friend.
Shenhe casually asked, "What's wrong with him?"
Keqing explained, "The impact from the crash was too great; it's probably a lingering after-effect that hasn't subsided yet."
"I see, but it's good that Chongyun is fine."
Shenhe didn't care at all about Xingqiu's well-being; she only cared if her nephew was alright.
This made Xingqiu want to cry, because Shenhe seemed to always be hostile towards him.
Even last time, Traveler had told him that Shenhe had asked Traveler if he had threatened Traveler.
Xingqiu was quite wronged when he found out; they were clearly friends.
Upon returning to Liyue Airport, Ningguang and the others had already been waiting for a long time.
"It seems there was indeed a problem with this flight. Fortunately, Xavier was here, otherwise, it would have been truly difficult to handle."
Seeing everyone safe and sound, Ningguang first breathed a sigh of relief, then thanked Xavier.
"It's nothing, just a small effort. But it does need improvement, otherwise, it won't be good if problems arise in the future." Xavier certainly didn't mind such small matters.
Ganyu saw her fellow disciple and said with great surprise, "Shenhe, why are you here too?"
"I just happened to run into them," Shenhe said calmly.
Zhongli saw that everyone else was fine, except for Xingqiu who looked half-dead, so he asked, "What's wrong with young friend Xingqiu? Did he encounter danger?"
"There was no danger at all!" Hu Tao said cheerfully, "It was just a small problem. We'll just get some medicine from Mr. Bai later and he'll be fine."
"If that's the case, then that's for the best." Zhongli didn't ask further.
Xavier followed the group to Bubu Pharmacy; this lineup was quite grand.
"By the way, we're just going to get some medicine, do we really need so many people to go together?" Chongyun felt a bit uncomfortable seeing so many people following along.
Because Ningguang and Ganyu also came along.
Ningguang smiled and said, "After all, this incident was caused by a test flight. As a Liyue Seven Stars, I naturally need to bear some responsibility, and having our guest Xavier take Xingqiu there would be a breach of hospitality."
Ningguang truly lived up to her title as Tianquan, thinking of everything.
"Oh, why is everyone here?"
As soon as they entered Liyue Harbor, the group saw a familiar face: Yaoyao.
Hu Tao, being straightforward, said, "Oh, it's Yaoyao. We're taking Xingqiu to see a doctor."
"So Xingqiu is sick? Perfect, I just went out to gather some ingredients that nourish the body. I originally planned to give them all to Xiangling, but now it seems Xingqiu needs them more."
Yaoyao took out some ingredients Xavier had never seen from the basket on her back; they looked very fresh and still had soil on them.
Xiangling said excitedly, "Yaoyao, you're so good! Aren't these the ingredients I just mentioned a while ago?"
"That's right, but Xiangling, don't worry, even if I give a portion to Xingqiu, there's still some for you."
Xavier's expression was strange. Yaoyao was clearly just a child, a true loli, but she felt like an adult.
It seemed that there were more strange people in Mondstadt.
Liyue people were relatively more serious, but sometimes they could be overly serious.
Just like Yaoyao, Zhongli, and Shenhe in front of him.
Therefore, there was always a sense of contrast, and a strangely amusing quality.
"You're from another world, just like Traveler! Welcome to Liyue! If you need anything, just tell Yaoyao, and Yaoyao will do her best to help you!"
When Yaoyao learned that Xavier was from another world, not only did she greet him warmly, but she also spoke very thoughtfully.
Xavier was incredibly moved; her emotional intelligence was simply too high!
However, what surprised everyone was that as Yaoyao was talking about Traveler, Traveler appeared.
"Traveler, look! There are so many people over there!"
Little Paimon spun in the air, seeing so many people together, it was quite lively.
"Indeed, there are many people. Is today some special day...?"
Lumine also felt a bit strange, so she went up to greet them.
"Hello everyone, are you going somewhere?"
Xavier's eyes lit up the moment he saw Lumine. After wandering for so long, he didn't expect to finally meet Lumine.
Chongyun explained, "Xingqiu just had some trouble on the plane, and we're about to take him to get some medicine."
"Wow, Xingqiu, you're so lucky! So many people are accompanying you to get medicine even when you're sick!" Paimon said with an envious look.
Lumine turned her head and said, "In that case, why don't Paimon you get sick instead of Xingqiu?"
"Uh, no thanks, being sick is really uncomfortable, and then I won't even want to eat anything, no, no!"
Paimon waved her hands repeatedly.
Everyone couldn't help but laugh; Paimon really was the most adorable.
"Traveler, your timing is perfect. I think there's a new friend you'll be very happy to meet."
Ningguang directed her gaze at Xavier, intending to introduce the two.
"This is..."
When Lumine saw Xavier, a strange feeling washed over her.
She could sense a special aura on Xavier that was similar to hers, yet vastly different.
"You're not from Teyvat!"
In just a second, Lumine knew the answer.
"Hello, Traveler Lumine, my name is Xavier, and I'm from a world called Blue Star!" Xavier extended his hand and said with a smile.
Lumine also extended her hand, and they shook hands.
"Hello, I'm Lumine. Although we're not from the same place, I feel a strange sense of familiarity."
The two looked up at the sky in perfect synchronicity.
Beyond this distant sky, there existed countless worlds.
What a fate it was to meet here from such distant worlds.
It seemed that in the unseen, a special force was drawing them together.
This kind of fate was ineffable; only they themselves could experience that unique feeling.
