"Since you know that I once cleaved the entire abyss with a single sword strike."
"Then you should know my position and my friendship with Morax even more."
"The Boundary Between Life and Death, Wuwang Slope, is far too important for Liyue."
"This is the most help I can offer you right now."
Qiu Nian turned around, looked at the densely packed souls, and said with her eyes slightly closed.
"Feel sorry..."
"I was asking for too much..."
Upon hearing this, the captain said apologetically.
"I understand how you feel."
Qiu Nian opened her eyes and shook her head slightly at the captain.
Thank you for your help...
"This is enough for me, as long as it doesn't violate my principles. If there's anything I can do for you in the future..."
"No matter what I do, I will never even flinch."
The captain looked at the deity before him and expressed his heartfelt gratitude.
He will never forget such kindness...
Even the captain changed his way of addressing Qiu Nian from "you" to "you" (formal).
"Haha...no need for that."
"I told you, I just wanted to help you, so I did."
Qiu Nian chuckled softly upon hearing this, then turned around and looked at the boundless clouds and mist.
"And if we're really talking about gratitude, you shouldn't be thanking me."
"If we should express our gratitude, let's express our gratitude to this land called Liyue."
Qiu Nian crossed her arms over her chest, raised her head slightly, looked at the strong light shining down from the sky, and said to the captain.
"Um..."
The captain remained silent for a moment upon hearing this.
He then closed his eyes and placed one hand flat on his chest.
It's as if they're genuinely thanking this land.
"Could I trouble you..."
"Should we widen that opening a bit more?"
After a long while, the captain opened his eyes and asked Qiu Nian's back.
"I should have already..."
Upon hearing this, Qiu Nian turned around, about to say something, but was interrupted by the captain.
"No, you misunderstood me."
“I would rather their environment be better than see them like this.”
The captain turned around, looked at the many souls crowding towards the tiny opening, and shook his head slightly.
"Five years..."
"I only need five years."
"Within five years...I will definitely find a way to truly bring peace to their souls!"
The captain stretched out one hand, clenched it into a fist, and said in a firm tone.
Qiu Nian was taken aback when she heard the captain's idea.
After nodding, Qiu Nian frowned slightly, then extended a finger and flicked it lightly.
A wisp of pale red aura shot out and flew towards the tiny spatial opening.
The slightly reddish aura seemed to ignite upon contact with the cave entrance.
The tiny opening was enlarged slightly.
An even greater power of the earth's veins surged from the cave entrance, brushing past numerous souls like a gentle breeze.
Feeling comfortable, the many souls remained where they were, no longer moving towards the cave entrance.
The timeframe was also reduced from six years to five years.
Seeing this, the captain walked up to Qiu Nian and thanked him.
"Well, now that we've finished, let's go."
"I'll bring you here again next time you come."
Qiu Nian nodded, and after speaking, he was about to leave with the team leader.
"Please wait a moment."
"There's one more thing I'd like to ask you."
The captain looked at Qiu Nian in front of him and spoke.
"what's up?"
Qiu Nian felt somewhat puzzled upon hearing this.
"If I'm not mistaken."
"You should be able to remove the curse of immortality from the Reign of Death..."
The captain looked at Qiu Nian in front of him and asked.
Qiu Nian remained silent upon hearing this, which could be considered as tacit agreement.
"If five years from now, I can truly bring peace to their souls."
"Please kill me 'completely'."
"This is my final request..."
"I've waited so long for this day..."
The captain stepped forward and made a request to Qiu Nian.
"Um..."
"I promise you, if that day ever comes, I will kill you completely."
After hearing this, Qiu Nian pondered for a moment and then agreed to the captain's request.
Chapter 68 The Best Toy Salesman in Winter Country
"For at least the next five years, you'll be able to get a good night's sleep every day."
After Qiu Nian finished speaking, a white and slightly red aura emanated from her body.
The captain's aura was identical to that of Qiu Nian.
Before leaving, the captain turned around and looked at the many souls.
Then, the scene flashed before their eyes, and the two of them were back on the small hill they had been on before.
The captain gazed at the beautiful landscape of Liyue, remained silent for a long time, and then expressed his gratitude to Qiu Nian.
Unexpectedly, this deity agreed and helped him so easily.
There was no cost, and no demands...
She is truly a gentle deity.
"You should go back and report to Queen Winter."
Qiu Nian nodded slightly.
That's right, he declined the Ice Queen's invitation.
"Goodbye..."
After the captain finished speaking, he turned and walked away into the distance.
During this process, he also turned his head to take a look at Qiu Nian's back.
My deeds are recorded in an ancient book of Kanria...
"How exactly was it recorded..."
Looking at the scenery before her, Qiu Nian rested her chin on one hand and frowned slightly.
He should no longer be on the continent of Teyvat by then...
And what they did outside of Teyvat.
How could the people of Teyvat possibly see and record this?
"Never mind, it's getting late."
"I wonder where Ying and Paimon are on the Young Master's Legend quest."
Qiu Nian glanced at the sky, which was already in the afternoon.
Then they began searching for Ying and Paimon.
I wonder if I'll still be able to find anything entertaining.
As he searched, he came to a riverbank near Qingxupu.
They met Ying and Paimon, who were leading Tok in search of his brother.
Paimon waved to Qiu Nian, who was not far away.
Seeing this, Qiu Nian walked over to the three of them.
"Where have you been?"
