Summary
Baizhu had done the impossible and made himself immortal. His ultimate goal was realized: Changsheng would not die, no one would have to take on the contract after him, and he could heal anyone without shortening his own life.
...
He swore to only use their secret art in the most desperate, incurable cases. To bring people back from the very precipice of death, and that only if they were clearly being taken before their time.
Because, as it turned out, being unable to die did not mean he could no longer suffer.In which Baizhu achieves immortality.

Summary
The boy named Zandik likes a few things- machinery, knowledge, lies, and Baizhu.
Machines can be repaired, knowledge passed down, lies maintained, but Baizhu is dying, irrevocably and irreversibly, the same way a candle flickers and sputters in damp air before gasping away into darkness.
He lives, he dies. He lives, he dies.
Zandik plucks the petals from a wilting lily and wonders, hazily, how much death he would be willing to barter for Baizhu's life.
(The answer would make Celestia scream.)
OR: Dottore sends a younger segment back to the Akademiya. Zandik meets a boy named Baizhu, and is reminded that despite his best efforts, he is not incapable of caring.

The stars are the essence of many things in Teyvat, even including Lumine, once. When her body begins to react to the starlight re-entering her veins, her body deals with it in a painful way.
