Xie Qi transmigrated and was bound to the Widower System.
According to the System’s rules, he had to mourn someone called Rex Lapis.
The problem was, it was now 2134.
And the script the System gave him said he wouldn’t meet Rex Lapis until 2137. The script ended there. That was it.
Xie Qi, holding the script of a future dead god’s widow, had transmigrated back in time
Xie Qi looked at the script from the System. What comes next? I mean, what happens after that? How am I supposed to make up the rest?!
The upside was that he had the aura of Rex Lapis’s widow, and everyone automatically filled in the blanks about his connection to Rex Lapis. Every day, people from all walks of life came to ask him:
“How did Rex Lapis die?”
“What happened in the Archon War?”
“How did you meet Rex Lapis?”
Under pressure, Xie Qi had no choice but to make up all kinds of stories to handle his visitors:
Thanks for asking.
“The ruler died for his country... You want to know more? I cannot say.”
I’ll think about it.
How did we meet?
“We had no immortal fate. Luckily, I had money.”
Our goal is to offer incense at the most efficacious shrine and burn the biggest incense sticks!
Xie Qi’s stories only left his visitors more confused:
Xiao: So the Geo Archon died for Liyue...
Keqing: What really happened behind the scenes?
Ningguang: Who exactly is he...
Xie Qi, the master storyteller at the center of everyone’s questions, and the biggest temple’s incense-burning attendant in all of Liyue, was once again stressing over his inability to come up with a new story.
Life is a play, and it all depends on your acting.
You and I had no fate to meet. It was all thanks to my money.
Just then, Xie Qi, the famous widow of Rex Lapis, received a sudden mission from the Widower System, which had been out of contact for ages:
[There is a mysterious guest at Wangsheng Funeral Parlor. Go and get close to him.]
