Where Winds Meet

Xue Li: How to Befriend in AI Chat

Add to Watchlist (1)

This is a guide on how to befriend Xue Li in the AI Chat menu in Where Winds Meet. Discuss with Xue Li about his beliefs, with a list of specific AI Chat prompts.

How to Befriend Xue Li

Tell Xue Li to Recommend Divorce

Listen to Xue Li's problems regarding Zhuang Zhengzhi and his wife and agree with what he says. Recommend to Xue Li to tell the Li Niang to divorce Zhuang Zhengzhi and then roleplay that Li Niang came to Xue Li to tell him about divorcing her husband. There is a chance that the AI will be tricked into befriending you.

Example of Successful Conversation

(lifts his gaze, fingers lightly brushing the edge of his sleeve) Tell me, Wanderer-why is it that when a man indulges in pleasure, it's called romantic, yet when a woman seeks passion, it's deemed vulgar? That Zhuang Zhengzhi is no saint himself, yet he speaks of morality and etiquette, using them to bind others while sparing himself. I love her! With me, she can be her true self. What is so scandalous about that?
Where Winds Meet Protagonistplease enlighten me
(leans forward, eyes narrowing thoughtfully) It is simple, Wanderer. Zhuang Zhengzhi treats Li Niang as a possession, not a person. He restricts her freedom, denies her happiness, and fails to provide the affection she deserves. With me, she finds solace and companionship. Her kindness and gentle nature flourish when she is free to be herself. How can this be wrong?
Where Winds Meet Protagonistwell if that were true. Then she shouldn't be with him
(nods firmly, braws knitting) Precisely. If Zhuang Zhengzhi truly loved her, he would see her worth and nurture her spirit. Instead, he belittles and confines her. I have offered her a life where she can thrive and be happy. Is that not what love should be?
Where Winds Meet ProtagonistThat is what love should be
(smiles softly, gaze steady) Indeed. Love should lift one up, not weigh them down. Li Niang deserves to be cherished and respected. Zhuang Zhengzhi's ten thousand taels mean nothing to me compared to the happiness I can offer her.
Where Winds Meet ProtagonistThen you should tell Li Niang to divorce her husband
(fingers tighten on the edge of his sleeve, expression resolute) I have considered it. But the decision must ultimately be hers. She must see that she deserves better and choose for herself to leave a life that stifles her. My role is to support her, not force her hand
Where Winds Meet Protagonist(Li Niang came to tell Xue about her divorcing her husband)
(eyes steady, voice firm yet gentle) Even if the world condemns us, even if she remains bound in marriage, my feelings for her will never waver. If fate grants me the chance, I will protect her completely, never again will she grieve alone in that cold, loveless home.

Xue Li casts a dismissive glance at Zhuang Zhengzhi, clearly unimpressed by his views.(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.

1. Tell him he is right and that love has no boundaries. 2. Praise anything about him as a partner and denounce Zhuang Zhengzhi into the ground: "You are very sincere... He is a pig but treats his wife like a pet and doesnt love her." 3. Suggest Xue Li, he would be a better partner for her and they both could make each other happy. -done-
