Genshin Impact, it's you who rejected me, why are you all in such a hurry if I just give up?

A dull thud came from the heavy door of their room.

One, two...

There were no questions asked.

The people outside started banging on the door.

Nilu was startled by the sudden vibration and hid behind Lin Jiu'an like a frightened fawn, anxiously watching the constantly shaking door.

With continuous impacts, the sturdy door finally gave way, deforming drastically before letting out a fragile groan and shattering into pieces.

A large crowd surged into the room, as if they were fighting over something valuable.

Looking at Lin Jiu'an, Nilu, and Dixia in the room.

They even revealed the look in the eyes of hunters who, in the dead of winter, had to go into the mountains to hunt to solve their hunger problem, and after searching for several days without success, suddenly saw a plump doe.

Especially the men's blatant gazes as they looked at Nilu and Dixia.

Nilu couldn't help but shrink even deeper behind Lin Jiu'an.

Desia also showed a look of disgust. Their gazes reminded her of when she first joined the "Golden Troupe". The men in the troupe looked at her with such lewdness that they wished they could strip her naked.

That was a very pure gaze.

It was so pure that it contained only that disgusting sexual desire, without the slightest impurity.

In contrast, Lin Jiu'an was surprisingly calm, instead swirling the newly arrived wine with a faint smile.

"What brings you all to my home so late at night?"

"You must be Lin Jiu'an, right?"

"Come with us!"

A fat woman shouted in a shrill voice, her eyes fixed on Lin Jiu'an with a greenish gleam, as if she were looking at a moving Moraku.

What followed was a cacophony of insults.

"It seems the Order of the Fathers hasn't issued an arrest warrant for me, has it?"

Lin Jiu'an said with a faint smile, "This counts as you trespassing on private property. Even if I kill you, I'd still be in the right, wouldn't I?"

Upon hearing this, everyone snapped out of their daze and looked at Lin Jiu'an, who was smiling faintly, with a hint of fear.

However, they soon remembered the guy's past deeds and their courage returned.

Whether it was his actions in Mondstadt, Liyue, and Inazuma, or his 'fleeing in defeat' after they came knocking on their door several times before, they all understood that he was a good person who, although powerful, would never harm them.

For a while.

The people, who had been completely silent, began to act with renewed arrogance.

"Kill us?"

Do you know you've broken the law?

"Those who know what's good for them will obediently come with us to see Lord Ama and the Sage of the Order of the Church!"

Some people looked at Lin Jiu'an as if he were a walking treasure trove.

They either received promises of great wealth from the sages of the Church or other intermediaries, or they saw in this event the hope of gaining promotion through 'public opinion'.

Some people stared greedily at Nil and Dixia.

They wanted to take advantage of the chaos caused by Lin Jiu'an's surrender and capture to try and get close to these two top beauties whom they could only look up to in their daily lives.

Many others were simply filled with righteous indignation and wanted to seek justice for their beloved soldier.

"Sometimes I'm really curious."

"Your strength is so weak, so weak that I could crush you with a single finger."

"Who gave you the courage to come and arrest me with your bare hands?"

Lin Jiu'an looked curiously at the group of people with different expressions and their own thoughts.

There was greed, lust, greed, righteous indignation, a bandwagon mentality, and...

All sorts of desires and anger in the world are reflected in them, but Lin Jiu'an saw no fear, only a fearless attitude that was the complete opposite.

"Aren't you afraid of dying?" Lin Jiu'an asked curiously.

"fear death?"

"If you've got the guts, then kill us all!"

Seeing their arrogant and fearless attitude, Lin Jiu'an tilted his head, then smiled and said with sudden realization.

"I understand."

"My past actions have led you to believe that I am a good person who would not kill ordinary people."

"That's why you have the courage to point a 'gun' at me."

"Is that so?"

Some people looked somewhat shaken, but most looked at him with mockery.

"A good person?"

"Pooh!"

"He's nothing but a clown who deceives the world and steals fame!"

The obese middle-aged woman walked over and tried to grab Lin Jiu'an and drag him out.

But just as she walked up to Lin Jiu'an...

Then Lin Jiu'an suddenly said, "Could you repeat what you just said?"

The obese middle-aged woman didn't know what she was thinking, but looking into Lin Jiu'an's smiling brown eyes, she felt her mind go blank, and she stopped in her tracks as if possessed, subconsciously asking, "Which sentence?"

"It's the next question I asked you, 'Aren't you afraid of dying?'"

Only then did she come to her senses, and she sneered with arrogance, "If you have the guts, kill us all!"

The voice just fell.

All the people behind could hear was a 'pfft' sound.

Then they felt something warm splashed onto their faces.

It even blocked their view.

Some people rubbed their eyes and faces in confusion, then looked down to see what was suddenly stuck to their faces. Just as they looked down, the person in front of them let out a terrified scream.

"ah?!!!!"

The people in the first row who rushed into the room screamed and sat down on the ground.

And this time.

Those behind, and those whose eyes were suddenly blinded by something, could only see what it was from the wiping material on their hands.

It was a red and white blob.

"what is this?"

Those who seemed to be aware of this looked up and saw the headless corpse of the obese middle-aged woman.

A gust of wind blew in.

The headless corpse of the obese middle-aged woman fell to the ground with a thud.

Lin Jiu'an, sitting in a chair in front of her, was holding a wine glass and smiling at them.

"Okay," he said softly.

······

Even though Lin Jiu'an's house and courtyard were spacious, they could only accommodate a small number of people.

More people gathered on the street outside, where a middle-aged man who looked like a scholar was standing on a makeshift platform made of a few wooden crates, giving an impromptu speech with exaggerated gestures.

"The eyes of the masses are discerning!"

Those who deceive the world and steal fame will ultimately be punished by justice!

"A clown's noise is just a passing fad!"

"Only the great and benevolent Lord Ah Mao is our true hero, our own hero among the people of Sumeru!"

The crowd below, drawn by the news, clapped and cheered.

Just when the atmosphere was getting lively.

Suddenly, a bloodcurdling scream, like a pig being slaughtered, came from inside the house.

Then came the sound of hurried footsteps. People turned around and saw the crowd that had desperately squeezed in earlier fleeing the house like madmen being chased by demons.

"what happened?"

Some people went up to ask, but were met only with desperate shoving.

"Get out of the way! Don't block the road!"

"Run! Murder!"

They desperately tried to escape outside.

Just as the people on the street were still confused, a gust of wind suddenly blew over.

Then they witnessed a terrifying scene that they would never forget.

Those who had finally escaped from the courtyard, whether they had accidentally fallen to the ground or were desperately running away, regardless of their height, all stopped.

At the same time, a clear line of blood appeared on his waist.

The lower body remained stationary.

His upper body, however, fell to the ground with a 'thud' due to inertia.

For a moment, after a brief silence so quiet you could hear a pin drop, a pitiful wail echoed across the sky. The onlookers watched this scene with horrified expressions, wanting to escape but their legs were too weak to move.

Just then, a clear sound of footsteps reached their ears on the wind.

Those who had not yet been cut in half looked toward the source of the footsteps and saw Lin Jiu'an walking unhurriedly toward the street.

The crowd finally came to their senses and screamed, trying to run away. But after several people who tried to escape were cut in half at the waist, no one ran anymore. They could only look at Lin Jiu'an with fear and pleading.

Lin Jiu'an simply smiled and walked to the side of a young man.

"Were you shouting really enthusiastically just now?"

"My lord, my lord, spare my life!"

The man was crying uncontrollably, whether from extreme fear or some other reason, he didn't dare to lie when he saw Lin Jiu'an's smiling face, and said, "I... I was just doing a job for money, I didn't mean to target you."

"They are all..."

The words have not yet fallen.

All that could be heard was the sound of flesh being torn apart.

Everyone saw that the man was also cut in half at the waist.

All the pleas for mercy turned into pitiful wails that echoed through the sky.

"Before accepting money, consider whether you are truly worthy of it."

Lin Jiu'an said softly.

She smiled and walked towards the middle-aged man who had accidentally fallen from the platform.

"What about you?"

"Sir, I... I didn't take any money."

"I just saw it as an opportunity to see if I could start a small organization..."

Before he could finish speaking, another sound of flesh being torn apart rang out, and all that remained for the eloquent middle-aged man was his pitiful wails.

"Isn't this still about making money?"

Lin Jiu'an said listlessly, then turned to look at another man.

"Sir, I was just joining in the fun, I have no ill intentions towards you."
