Character Thoughts on Xiao

Character In-Game Thoughts
Genshin Impact - Baizhu ImageBaizhu Baizhu: Only the most magnanimous soul could labor to preserve life by slaying evil spirits. I was once fortunate enough to see the Conqueror of Demons with my own eyes. We even brought him back to the pharmacy to take care of him for a day. Unfortunately, I did not know his true identity at the time, and didn't even have a chance to speak with him before he left on his own.
Changsheng: But you've seen him since then, haven't you? There's no reason to be upset.
Baizhu: Yes, you're right.
Genshin Impact - Beidou ImageBeidou One year on the eve of the Lantern Rite, we ran into a storm as we were returning to port. Try as we did, we only made it back to Liyue Harbor in the dead of night, long after the lanterns had all been released. As I looked towards Guyun Stone Forest, I saw an adeptus, floating in the air, in the form of what appeared to be a young boy. I guess it is like the legends say ー there really must be those that watch over Liyue, even if they cannot be seen.
Genshin Impact - Chongyun ImageChongyun The Conqueror of Demons himself has defended Liyue side-by-side with we exorcists for generations, day after day, night after night. I have the utmost respect for Xiao. It’s just… Why must he be so disparaging towards us? He says our repertoire is lacking and our power is trivial. I’m sorry, but I just can’t accept that.
Genshin Impact - Ganyu ImageGanyu He seems like a bit of an outsider, socially. Probably just his personality... I can understand that, to be honest, but I'm not really about to try and get close to him. I mean... all the people he's ever agreed to team up with are no longer with us...
Genshin Impact - Hu Tao ImageHu Tao What would I know of the adepti? Ai-yai-yai, that kind of stuff is top-secret! Don't come asking me about it!
Genshin Impact - Keqing ImageKeqing I feel like now that we live in the age of mankind's rule, it's time for the legendary boy - adeptus to be released from duty. We no longer need a defender of that kind, because we are capable of working through the challenges we face on our own strength.
Genshin Impact - Qiqi ImageQiqi Name: Sounds like a historical artifact to me.
Memory: Remind me, have I met him before?
Genshin Impact - Shenhe ImageShenhe My first impression of him was that he's not one to smile. After meeting him again more recently, however, he's still as reserved as ever, but... he seems a lot more relaxed now. Maybe he... met someone special.
Genshin Impact - Yelan ImageYelan The elders in my clan once said that we must always show the utmost respect to the Vigilant Yaksha. Apparently, the only time that our ancestor would gain some temporary relief from his insanity was when passing by the Wangshu Inn. It must have been the comforting effect of his presence that wards off evil spirits. That said, if I ever have the honor of fighting side by side with the Conqueror of Demons, I will focus only on the mission. I cannot let myself be distracted by concerns about his status.
Genshin Impact - Zhongli ImageZhongli You speak of the young adeptus of Guili Plains… 'sigh' Still fulfilling his duty to this very day. Please give these painkillers to him on my behalf. Oh, yes ー be sure not to let Paimon eat them. Nothing of this world can withstand the power of this medicine.

Xiao's Thoughts on Others

Character In-Game Thoughts
Genshin Impact - Baizhu ImageBaizhu About Baizhu
You want... Baizhu to make a medicine to take away my pain? I understand your intentions, but mortal medicine has no effect on adepti.
Genshin Impact - Beidou ImageBeidou About Beidou
Beidou? I have nothing to do with her. Though there is such a thing as the leviathan. As a mere human, she has proven her power in defeating Haishan.
Genshin Impact - Ganyu ImageGanyu About Ganyu
Ganyu is neither mortal nor illuminated beast. Wandering, both the mortal and adepti realms with duty as her sole guide, it was inevitable that she would become perplexed...
What? Me? You believe a yaksha who knows nothing more than how to massacre countless souls and emerge unscathed is a suitable mentor for such an individual? ...Your mind occupies a very different world from that which your body inhabits.
Genshin Impact - Hu Tao ImageHu Tao About Hu Tao
Hu Tao? Her liveliness is irritating. Fortunately, she is also humorous, so you need not worry about her growing into a boring human.
Genshin Impact - Shenhe ImageShenhe About Shenhe
It seems Shenhe places a great deal of trust in you. Well, how could she not. There are few people in the world as kind and good-natured as you.
Genshin Impact - Venti ImageVenti About Venti
Venti? So that's the name he goes by. His tunes are... forget it.
Genshin Impact - Yelan ImageYelan About Yelan
I've heard that she once investigated The Chasm, following the trail of the Millelith. If she can investigate mysteries like that on her own, she must be someone of rare skill.
Genshin Impact - Zhongli ImageZhongli About Zhongli
Can I ask... Zhongli — what does he do with his days? Huh? Birds, antiques, flowers...
Hmm... What deeper meaning do they hold?
