How to wait for Xiayou’s message in Wuthering Waves

There is a lot of confusion around Howling Waves and how he handles his quests, such as Shadows of the past asking you to wait for a message that never seems to appear.

After completing the first part of the quest, a message will appear asking you to “wait for Xiayou’s message.” It’s a short text that seems simple enough, but it causes a lot of excitement because it doesn’t tell you how long you have to wait or how you receive the message.

Several hours have passed, no messages arrive and now you find yourself here searching for answers on what to do. So, let’s not waste another moment of your time.

How to complete Shadows of the Past in Howling Waves – Wait for Xiayou’s message

Wait for Xiayou’s message in Howling Waves, you need to wait more than 24 hours from the time you completed the first part of the questline.

You won’t get anywhere if you try to beat the game’s timer or just play the game normally, hoping the questline continues soon. The quest, for some reason, is the only one we’ve seen so far that locks the sequel behind real world times.

After 24 hours, the next time you log into the game, you should be able to continue playing the quest. where you left off. We don’t know why Kuro Games decided to make this a feature and stop progression for more than a day, but it’s the only way to complete this task unless the developers decide to change how it works of the quest in the future.
