|Xiao POV|

"Xiao" I heard a voice summon me.

I recognize this voice, it's zhongli. But why is Zhongli summoning me at this hour? It must be important.

I appear before him. Kneeling.

"There is no reason to kneel Xiao, I need you to keep a close eye on someone. They seem so familiar to me but I have no idea how or even why" he ponders

I stand up per his request.

"where may I find them? and I have a request for you if that isn't too presumptuous of me" I fidget

"Of course please do tell me your request" he asks, curiosity staining his voice

"I found something in mingyun village, an adeptus. I don't know their name, they ran off before I was even given the chance to-" I stop.

"Zhongli? Is everything alright?" I ask

He grips the bridge of his nose and sighs deeply. He doesn't seem alright.

"Did they by chance have (H/L) (H/C)?" He asks coldly, his eyes almost glaring at me

"They did.. so you do know them?" I ask

"They can't be alone with so many people around. They aren't safe. Find them now." He demands

I simply nod my head and jump onto the neighbouring buildings.

Where could they have gone? This adeptus better be safe.

I sigh heavily when I suddenly hear footsteps behind me.

"Mind if I sit next to you?" A high pitched feminine voice asks
