Genshin Impact: The story of Xingqiu

As a young child, the second son of the Feiyun Commerce Guild - Xingqiu from Genshin Impact, had a reputation for being mild-mannered and studious. However, Xingqiu had a different side which, quite contrary to his polite nature, was daring, adventurous and far more mischievous.

In Genshin Impact, Xingqiu's personality is that of a young man with a longsword, usually found at book booths. According to the game's narrative, he has "a heart of gold and yearns for justice and fairness for all".

Xingqiu's appearance in Genshin Impact sees him wearing a jacket which is made up of white, black and navy cloth, along with gold decals. For pants, he prefers a pair of navy blue shorts.
