[Genshin Impact] Farming Is No Match for Tearing Through the Plot

The main plot doesn’t begin until chapter 45. Everything before that is just setup.

Yes, I just finished writing the setup. Note from 2026.9.25

This novel in one sentence:

A family drama about how my wife created my dad, then went on to kill a whole bunch of my dad’s disciples; my dad found out and went crazy, wanting to kill me; then my dad, who had been separated from my father for years, came to save me; and my younger brother and his husband got involved too. Oh, and it’s also a family comedy about overturning the original plot. (I considered changing the blurb for a while, but realized this version really is the most accurate. Covers face.)

Me: Li Xi

Wife: Yun Wang

Dad: Li Ye

Father: Wanderer

Younger brother: Changsheng

Younger brother’s husband: Albedo

This story has a prequel, but you don’t need to read it to understand this one. The important parts will all be explained.

He said: I can help you prevent regrets.

She asked: Then what about your regrets?

My regret, my regret

Is a person.

Little White Cloud, you have to take flight, all on your own.

Fly a little higher, then higher still, until you reach a place I can’t touch, a place beyond my reach.

Then you’ll never be bound by regret again.

But what is Little White Cloud’s regret?

He thought

If he severed the “fate” binding all twins in the world, could his Wuche survive?

A one-line introduction to the three main couples

Li Xi x Yun Wang

I dig holes and plant crops; you fill in the holes. I save you. (Comment: Wait, who’s saving whom?)

Wanderer x Li Ye

I’ve lost my memory, and I can’t believe my past self actually landed someone this good! (Comment: A merch-obsessed fan gets together with the real deal. The best.)

Albedo x Changsheng

A pair of nobodies’ sightseeing trip. (Comment: Albedo’s fan art is so beautiful. Slurp.)

To sum up:

A transmigration and rebirth story in another sense.

Starting from the second playthrough.

Li Xi has lost his memory. Little White Cloud remembers the first playthrough, but keeps it to himself.

He’ll get his memories from the first playthrough back eventually. After all, dear Father Li Ye kept something up his sleeve.

Li Xi (Wuche) Yun Wang (Xuwang, Wuyun, Little White Cloud)

Character introductions:

From the prequel: Wanderer (A San) x Li Ye, Albedo x Li Changsheng

Li Xi: Wanderer’s adopted son, almost identical to Wanderer in appearance (except for his height)

Changsheng: Wanderer’s second adopted son, whose true form is a cactus

Xuwang: The person who created Li Ye

Wuzhe: ???

Guest appearances: A Mao x An’an (A San and Li Ye from a parallel timeline)

Prequels: [Genshin Impact] Want to Play a Game? and [Genshin Impact] I Don’t Want to Play Games Anymore

They tell the story of Wanderer and Li Ye

Prequel: [Genshin Impact] The Self-Cultivation of a Cactus

It tells the story of Li Xi’s younger brother Changsheng and Albedo

This story: The story of Li Xi, Wanderer’s eldest son

The story has multiple points of view, so the plot won’t focus entirely on the protagonist, Li Xi. (The initial plan is to have three POV characters: Li Xi, Li Ye, and Changsheng.)

In short, due to an invasion by external enemies, this little world is on the verge of collapse. Li Xi is forced to take a job keeping it running while overturning the predetermined plot.

See how the Li family takes down the original plot. (Plot subversion warning.)

You read that right: Li Xi is the top.

A big cat of a top who’s clingy, whiny, and good at acting cute. Who could resist?

Xuwang: Get lost! I don’t want him! Give me back my original lover!!

Besides the main couples from the first two stories, there will be lots of secondary couples. The initial plan includes Abyss Aether x Xiao and Cyno x Tighnari; the rest are undecided.

Theme: Defy fate, and never give up
