Liyue is a lore-filled region that you shouldn’t skip exploring if you love Genshin Impact. The Yaksha, in particular are deeply connected to the lore of Genshin Impact and are often referenced during lantern rite. It also looks like a future character may be one of the Yaksha.
The Yaksha are warriors whofought for Zhongli during the ArchonWarand later wiped out demons across from Liyue. They each had visions, but due to their blood-soaked actions, they are constantly fighting with a darkness calledkarma. Karma is what leads to a Yaksha either dying or turning on their friends.

Xiao almost lost the fight with his karma but was saved byVenti’s flutein his last moments. Currently, there are onlytwo Yaksha remaining, one beingXiaoand the other beinga Yaksha that ran away. None of the Adeptus seem to know about the missing Yaksha, and if Zhongli has information on him, he isn’t revealing it.
It should also be noted that,unlike the Adepti, like Ganyu, the Yaksha are much more prone to phasing out and seem not to be gods. The Yaksha are also smaller in numbers and don’t seem to have ever had children.
It does seem likethe missing Yaksha may be a future playable character.If he appears, it will likely be during afuture year’s lantern rite celebration.
