Genshin Impact already has a plentitude of characters present in the game. With a batch of characters waiting for their release. And some who are just officially teased and later leaked as a playable characters. 

Yelan is one such character in Genshin Impact that was first officially featured in the Stove God Cutscene during the Moonchase Festival Event.

She is a character that draws a lot of resemblance to Honkai Impact’s Fu Hua, and there’s also something on her body, the Cleansing Bell to be exact, that you can spot during the cutscene. So why is that important? Because the cleansing bell is linked to Madame Ping. And because of this, we have many theorists who suggest Yelan is Madame Ping’s younger version.
