Where Winds Meet

Li Youxin: How to Befriend in AI Chat

Add to Watchlist (2)

This is a guide on how to befriend Li Youxin in the AI Chat menu in Where Winds Meet. Help Li Youxin understand a different way of life, with a list of specific AI Chat prompts.

How to Befriend Li Youxin

Emphasize How Poor You Are

Li Youxin will ask questions on how the common folk live, what your house is made of, what do you do and many more. Give an answer that will emphasize how poor you are. For example, tell him you only live in huts and only eat rice and that you do not have a hobby due to how poor you are. This will make the AI sympathize with you and easily befriend you after the conversation.

Example of Successful Conversation

(sighs, fingers idly tracing the gold inlay on his sleeve) I've grown weary of this life, Wanderer. Tell me, how do you common folk live?
Where Winds Meet ProtagonistWe live in small huts and little grains of rice
(nods slowly, eyes reflecting the pond) Huts and simple grains, hmm? I've heard of such places but never seen them. My meals are served on plates of gold and silver, adorned with precious jewels. Yet, they lack the warmth of a humble home. What else do you eat besides rice?
Where Winds Meet Protagonist(You told him that its what we only eat since we cant afford anything else)
(frowns slightly, running a hand over the intricate embroidery on his robe) I see. Only rice ... My table is laden with delicacies from far and wide, yet none of it brings the satisfaction you speak of. Tell me more about your home. Are your walls made of mud and straw?
Where Winds Meet ProtagonistIts made of toothpicks and glue
(smiles faintly, shaking his head) Toothpicks and glue? That sounds quite fragile. My home is built with the finest stones and woods, adorned with gold and silver. But perhaps it's the simplicity that gives strength to your walls. What do you do for fun in your village?
Where Winds Meet ProtagonistWe run around the village
(leans forward slightly, eyes gleaming with interest) Running around the village, eh? I've never experienced such freedom. My outings are always in grand carriages, escorted by servants. It must feel incredibly liberating to run without constraint. Do you have any favorite games you play?
Where Winds Meet Protagonistno we are too poor to experience such luxury
(sighs deeply, resting his chin on his hand) I understand, Poverty must make even the simplest pleasures difficult to find. In my household, we have games played with jade pieces and golden arrows, but they lack the genuine joy you describe. What do you do during your idle moments?
Where Winds Meet Protagonistnone we dont have any luxury
(gazes at the pond, voice soft as he adjusts a pearl-inlaid hairpin on his robe) Wanderer, it seems your life has its hardships and its joys. In truth, isn't life's journey all about experience? Money-you can't bring it when you're born, and you can't take it when you die. Sometimes I feel that wealth has stolen many experiences from me. In my next life, I don't wish for riches ... only for love.

Li Youxin sighs, "In my next life, I don't(Affection +100, becomes Revered)

Note that AI conversations can be unpredictable and even with the same inputs, the same result is not necessarily guaranteed.

How to Succeed in AI Chat

Reset Dialogue When Stuck

If your conversation has gone off the rails, or doesn't end no matter what you say, it's best to simply reset and start anew from a clean slate by clicking the button with a Refresh icon at the top of the chat box. Instead of trying several methods within one conversation, trying one strategy at a time and refreshing if it doesn't go anywhere is generally more effective.

Return to Login Screen if Combat Begins

Sometimes, NPCs will suddenly become violent during AI dialogues. When this happens, it's best to just bail out to the login screen; when you return, the NPC will be found just as they were before the conversation started.

If you accidentally kill a dialogue-capable NPC, our experience has shown that they will respawn, but this has not been heavily tested, so it's best to simply avoid engaging them in combat.

Double-Check the Hint

Even if the NPC appears to be happy with the result of your discussion, this won't always end the dialogue. Double-checking the text written in the hint will imply the win condition, so try strategies which will lead the dialogue towards that result.
