Exorcist Family

Exorcist Family is the family ship between Chongyun and Shenhe from the Genshin Impact fandom.

Canon
The two meet in Shenhe's teaser trailer. When Chongyun is about to get attacked from behind, Shenhe protects him and kills off all the monsters. Once she's finished, Chongyun thanks her and notices how she's also a exorcist. As he's about to ask her something, she interrupts, introducing herself. She asks about his temperature, where he remembers about his popsicles. As he looks for his popsicles, he realizes she's his aunt.

Shenhe is seen to be a bit overprotective of Chongyun. The two also have voicelines about each other. In her voiceline about Chongyun, she firstly talks about how hard it is for her to believe she has living relatives. If Chongyun has difficulties training, Shenhe is apparently willing to enlighten him. However, Chongyun would need to meet her alone in the mountains. Shenhe calls his family too sociable, saying she wouldn't know how to turn down their invitations.

In Chongyun's voiceline about Shenhe, he talks about how he's heard of Shenhe before. He says the fate of Shenhe's family is something all of Chongyun's family can sympathize with. Originally, Chongyun thought they would be able to bring back a long-lost relative. When Chongyun and his family heard Shenhe was alive, all of them were overjoyed and prepared gifts for her. He then calls her difficult to track down. As he realizes their positions in the family tree, he wonders if it means he has to call her “Auntie Shenhe”.

Quotes
"It's hard for me to believe that... I still have living relatives in this world. If he has any difficulties with his training, I am more than willing to help enlighten him. However, he will need to meet me alone in the mountains. Their family is too... sociable. I wouldn't know how to turn down their invitations without being impolite."

- Shenhe about Chongyun

"The elders in my clan have mentioned her before. The fate of her family... *sigh* It's something we can all sympathize with. I originally thought we would be able to bring back a long-lost relative back into our clan. The elders were overjoyed too, when they heard she was alive — they even prepared gifts for her, and picked an auspicious day for a grand reunion. What we hadn't counted on was that most of the time, she's extremely difficult to track down. Wait a minute, based on our relative positions in the family tree, does that mean I... There's no way I'd have to call her "Auntie Shenhe"... right?"

Fanon
is a popular Familyship. However, otherwise, it is very unpopular. After Shenhe's teaser, the ship got fairly popular, and some hoped for interactions in Shenhe's story quest.
