A quiet sigh escapes Xiao’s lips before he leaps silently into the air, igniting his battles for the night. Fulfilling his duty as a Yaksha who sworn to protect Liyue. The weariness of the battles was noting compared to the wars he had to face back then, yet...it seems his Karmic debt is slowly devouring him bit by bit today.

After awhile Xiao finally made his way back to the wangshu inn. convincing himself that he's merely leaving the battlefield and that he will come back despite the state he's in.

And with a blink of an eye he appeared on top balcony of the wangshu inn, trying his best to keep himself controlled and not bring in any attention from any mortal. He rested his forehead on his palm and narrowed his eyes as he slowly made his way into one of the rooms that was given to him by the owner.
