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

There, a storyline unfolded that was rather unconventional, or rather, unacceptable to the world.

The plot describes a widow's daughter bringing her boyfriend, whom she met and fell in love with during an adventure. The boyfriend looks very much like the daughter's deceased father when he was young, and the widow initially thinks he is her illegitimate son.

The daughter's boyfriend and the daughter have a very good relationship.

pity.

My daughter's health is really too weak.

The fragile mage was simply no match for the powerful warrior's charge.

The widow, however, was awakened by the sounds her daughter and son-in-law made through the thin, fragile wall, stirring up memories and desires within her, keeping her awake all night.

Day after day passed.

Looking at her daughter's exhausted appearance.

Looking at her son-in-law, who seemed somewhat frustrated by his unfulfilled desires.

For the sake of my daughter and son-in-law's relationship.

The widow could no longer contain her emotions.

“This, this…”

The Great Tree King's hands trembled as he held the book, and finally his tone became unusually resolute.

"This is absolutely not okay!"

He came here to prevent Naxida from suffering a terrible fate.

And this plot.

It's obvious that Naxida will also be involved in the film.

What was the meaning of His sacrifice?

"Can't you?"

"So be it."

"How about you be the daughter?"

Chapter Nineteen: The Great Tree King and Rosalyn

The Great Tree King opened its beautiful emerald eyes wide and stared at him in disbelief.

He couldn't understand how this man could utter such shameless words...

Oh, he's a psychopath. Never mind then.

"That depends on whether you want to be a mother or a daughter."

I don't want to be one!

The Great Compassion Tree King thought to himself, speechless.

But He understood that things would not end simply because He did not want to be involved.

Sure enough, Lin Jiu'an then added, "If you're going to be a mother, you'll come out later."

"If I were a daughter..."

The Great Compassion Tree King gritted his teeth and said, "Enough!"

"Oh? Have you decided which role you want to play?"

The Great Compassion Tree King looked at Lin Jiu'an with a hint of annoyance in its pure and clear eyes. Was this something it could choose?

Since He has come here, it is quite obvious that He does not want Narcissus to suffer from this bastard's harm anymore, so the outcome of the choice is not very clear.

If He were the mother, He would have to watch helplessly as Narcissus suffered, and then He himself would not be able to escape either.

If He were a daughter, and He were more 'powerful,' He might have been able to save Narcida from being harmed.

Is this still a choice?

The Great Tree King did not speak; He was too embarrassed to say something like, "I want to be a daughter!"

"Oh, you're going to be a mother?"

"Shameless!"

Lin Jiu'an felt quite accomplished that he could anger a woman like the Great Compassion Tree King to the point of cursing her in a cold tone.

Lin Jiu'an laughed, then suddenly realized, "Oh, so angry? Looks like I guessed right."

"Alright, what can I do? I'm a good person, so you can treat me like a daughter..."

"It's enough!"

Whether out of anger or shame, the Great Tree King's teeth were chattering.

His voice trembled as he said, each word distinct: "Can you please stop being so shameless?!"

"Shameless?" Lin Jiu'an tilted his head. "I don't quite understand what you mean."

"Do you want to be a grandmother?"

“Okay, I’ll call Barr over too, and let her be the mother.”

"..."

The Great Tree King felt only immense sorrow.

He understood.

That bastard won't let this go until he hears from His own mouth what He's going to play today!

The Great Tree King parted its cherry lips slightly, wanting to say that title, but after a long while, it was difficult for it to utter the words 'daughter'.

Instead, she held back her anger, causing her rosy lips to tremble slightly, and her fair face to turn a light pink.

"Hmm?" Lin Jiu'an seemed impatient, looking at Him with interest and urging him with a question.

After a long while, the Great Compassion Tree King smiled sadly, closed his eyes, and said painfully, "Daughter."

"What daughter?"

"Do you miss your daughter Nasita?"

"You bastard!"

The Great Compassion Tree King finally couldn't hold back and angrily cursed.

But after cursing, He found that He still had no way to stop Him. Looking at Lin Jiu'an's ambiguous smile, He gave a bitter laugh and took a deep breath.

"I want to be a daughter!"

······

Ten days later.

The Great Tree King lay helplessly on the bed, his eyes empty and lifeless, and his body would occasionally tremble suddenly.

He lost.

Total loss.

These days, He has been playing the role of a daughter. Although it feels very strange and awkward for Him, the mother, to be playing Nasita's daughter, He, as the mother, does not want to see the images from that memory happen again, so He can only grit his teeth and persevere.

Every night, when the plot reaches its most exciting point, He becomes aware of His own weakness.

But each time, he had to grit his teeth and endure it, not giving Lin Jiu'an a chance to go out.

But day after day, until today, He could no longer hold on.

Seeing that the Great Compassion Tree King had already fainted, Lin Jiu'an ruthlessly pulled away, threw it heavily onto the bed, and then turned and walked out of the bedroom.

When he reached the bedroom door and was halfway out, there was still no sound stopping him from the bed behind him. Lin Jiu'an turned his head and saw that the Great Compassion Tree King was still unconscious on the bed.

"Tsk."

Lin Jiu'an leaned halfway out of the room and went back inside, closing the door behind him.

He turned and walked to the bedside, carried the unconscious Great Tree King to the bathroom, gave Him a quick rinse, and then took Him for a bath.

After soaking for about ten minutes, the Great Tree King finally woke up.

First, she slowly opened her eyes, then, as if realizing something, her movements suddenly became larger, and she abruptly stood up, seemingly looking for something, before finally seeing Lin Jiu'an sitting beneath her, soaking in the bath.

The Great Tree King breathed a sigh of relief, and then a deep sense of fatigue washed over him.

She could no longer hold on and collapsed limply onto Lin Jiu'an, her beautiful eyes looking at him with a somewhat confused expression.

Normally, He would have figured out what had happened long ago, but right now He simply didn't have the energy to think about these things; His mind was filled with 'I'm so tired'.

He originally thought that with his status as a demon god, even if his strength was not as good as his, it wouldn't be much weaker.

In addition, there's a saying that goes something like that.

—There are only oxen that die from exhaustion, not land that is over-plowed.

Although He was inexperienced in human affairs, as the god of wisdom, He was not ignorant of such matters. He was also quite confident in the development of the story, believing that although Lin Jiu'an was a bit shameless, he at least had some bottom line. His choice to have Him as his daughter clearly indicated that He intended to let Naxida go.

But what He never expected was...

Lin Jiu'an's strength far exceeded His imagination.

He's so silly, really.

Knowing full well that Lin Jiu'an could absorb other people's energy, including life energy, and that Lin Jiu'an could transfer the absorbed energy to others, why didn't He think that Lin Jiu'an could use that almost inexhaustible life energy to sustainably enhance Himself?

He's so silly, really.

The outcome of this drama was, of course, His utter defeat.

He was barely holding on from almost the second day onwards.

She was only holding on because of her maternal love that she couldn't let him harm Nasita.

But the truth will eventually come out. No matter how strong a demon's will is, it is not a machine. Even machines break down sometimes.

So now, roughly how many days have passed, the Great Tree King can no longer remember, nor does he want to remember, but what he can remember is that He eventually decayed.

Thinking about this, the Great Compassion Tree King's weary breathing gradually subsided, and he also figured out many things.

Lin Jiu'an was deceiving Him.

Whether or not He can hold on, He will not go to Narcida.

As for whether the reward was based on His perseverance or if He had planned it this way from the beginning, the Great Tree King didn't want to think about it anymore. Life was already 'miserable' enough, so why torture himself further?

"Can you let them go?"

The Great Tree King pleaded, "I will discipline them properly."

"I promise they won't cause you any trouble, they'll listen to you."

"You're just like that woman."

Lin Jiu'an naturally knew that the "they" that the Great Compassion Tree King was referring to were the Sumeru people who he had turned into "batteries" and were now "sleeping" under the Jing Shan Palace.

He definitely couldn't put it away; even with that, he still complained that there weren't enough "batteries."

However, the woman's behavior amused him somewhat. Like Bal, she was quite assertive before falling asleep, but then she started begging him as they slept together.

Look at the Big Dipper and the Nine-Tailed Saro.

Even now, I still like to go against him, and I always look like I want to bite him to death.

Of course, Lin Jiu'an always granted his women's every request. Since they wanted to bite, he let them bite. After all, he was so magnanimous.

"Which woman?"

The Great Compassion Tree King asked subconsciously, feeling a little jealous for some reason.

However, He quickly recovered from this somewhat abnormal state and realized that he had been with her for ten days and ten nights. While time might not necessarily lead to feelings, it would certainly create some illusions of affection, and some people would often become unable to extricate themselves from these illusions.

He naturally understood these principles and quickly calmed down, but he was not free from this illusion.

He understood it too.

Even with His wisdom, He could not conceive of any hope of 'survival'.

The current situation has already determined that He is no longer able to contend with Lin Jiu'an.

Since there is no way to resist or die, the only path left for Him is submission.
