Chapter 149
To be safe, it was better to take advantage of the last day to consolidate their own strength.
Ningguang, after hearing Jiang Yan’s voice transmission, immediately began to mobilize true essence to draw talisman paper.
Tomorrow they were going to the Nine Nether Secret Realm.
This was an extremely dangerous place, and Jiang Yan himself couldn't enter the Nine Nether Secret Realm.
Even if he could attach his divine sense to them, at most, he could only inform them of some information.
When truly encountering a battle, they still needed to solve it themselves.
In the Nine Nether Secret Realm, there were demon beasts at the Refining Essence to Qi stage, and even demon beasts at the peak of Refining Qi to Spirit.
Considering the origin of these demon beasts, and the relationship with Shushan.
Ningguang felt that the moment they met the demon beasts, it would likely be a situation of life and death.
To be conservative, it was better to draw more talisman paper while it was still safe.
When they went in, she and others would have more protection.
Since Jiang Yan’s voice fell, the entire Shushan had fallen into busyness.
Although they were also worried about the risks of the Nine Nether Secret Realm, thinking about how many good things they could get from it.
This kind of risk was indeed worth taking.
However, Keqing, who had already left the Shushan Cave Heaven, couldn't return for the time being, even if she knew through the disciple token.
She still needed to go back to issue techniques to the the Liyue Qixing quickly, and then tell them about the problem of martial arts practice.
Thinking of this, Keqing couldn't help but speed up.
The clouds in Jueyun Karst were instantly cut by a sword mark.
The stream of light that Keqing turned into also flashed and disappeared.
The Millelith below naturally noticed it, but they just looked at it with envy for a few times and went back to doing their own things.
The Millelith didn't notice that on a small hill in the distance.
A figure was hiding quietly.
Looking up at the direction Keqing left in the sky, his eyes were full of fanatical fighting spirit.
"The rumors are true!"
"Liyue really has had huge changes recently; that stream of light should be the rumored Sword Immortal, right?"
"Haha... good place! Liyue is truly a good place!"
"Not long after arriving, I encountered such a strong person! It’s truly... hard to calm down!"
"Having a fight with such a strong person must be very enjoyable!"
"And other Liyue immortals, so many strong people, it’s truly a happy trouble!"
"Then... let’s start with this Sword Immortal!"
The orange-haired youth hiding here was Tartaglia, who had just arrived in Liyue not long ago.
A few days ago, before he had even arrived in Liyue, Tartaglia had seen the thunder that covered the sky and sun.
Even as warlike as he was, he couldn't help but feel extreme fear when facing that kind of thunder.
But after coming to his senses, Tartaglia rushed to Liyue even more urgently.
Not only was he worried about the Cryo Archon’s plan, but another point...
His intuition told him that as long as he came to Liyue, everything he longed for could be realized.
Stronger power, stronger opponents, endless battles.
All of this could be obtained in Liyue.
Rushing and rushing, Tartaglia finally arrived in Liyue this morning.
But as soon as he arrived at the Northland Bank, Tartaglia was taught a lesson by Liyue.
97. Baizhu: Qiqi, I’m taking you to cultivate immortality!
The Northland Bank was ordered by the General Affairs Office to close for rectification for half a month due to tax rate issues.
A Fatui attaché was sentenced to three months in prison for not complying with Liyue’s environmental protection laws and littering.
Thirteen Fatui debt collectors were detained by the Millelith for suspected violent debt collection.
Tartaglia saw a pile of news, and there wasn't a single piece of good news.
And...
Not to mention the violent debt collection, what is meant by closing for rectification due to tax rate issues?
What is meant by being sentenced to three months for littering?
And he even saw a child urinating on the ground at the gate of Liyue; why wasn't that caught?
One by one, piece by piece, it was clearly aimed at the Fatui.
Making him handle this kind of diplomatic dispute was making things difficult for a military general!
Looking at the pair of Fatui subordinates with aggrieved faces, Tartaglia was also a bit helpless.
Anyone could see that Liyue was intentionally making things difficult for them.
But the problem was...
How to handle it?
In the past, although Liyue restricted them a lot, it didn't target them so blatantly.
Could it be that they knew something?
Tartaglia couldn't make up his mind, but everything Liyue did was according to rules and regulations.
It was nothing more than some rules that wouldn't have been cared about before, and which the official side would have turned a blind eye to, being taken seriously.
Just as he intended to contact the Cryo Archon, the Cryo Archon transmitted a message through the divine power attached to him.
I don't know what news the Cryo Archon received, but she actually asked the Fatui in Liyue to keep a low profile and not move if they could before the Rite of Descension.
This was rare; the Fatui’s overbearing style was learned from the Cryo Archon.
Now the Cryo Archon actually bowed her head first.
Even if they couldn't afford to offend the Geo Archon, there was no need for this, right?
But Tartaglia had no choice; anyway, since the Cryo Archon said so, let the Northland Bank and the Fatui be honest recently.
As for him...
The Cryo Archon said to let the Northland Bank and the Fatui be honest; what did it have to do with him, a Harbinger?
So, Tartaglia urged the Fatui to integrate the recent movements in Liyue.
But looking at this, Tartaglia was also confused.
Originally, everything in Liyue was still considered calm, and it was a situation the Fatui were familiar with.
But everything changed after that day when the thunder covered the sky.
Liyue began to collect animals, Primogems, herbs, and minerals on a large scale.
Even all kinds of classics had to be collected.
The Fatui’s actions were controlled and monitored, the Northland Bank was checked every few days, and today it was directly ordered to close.
Besides that, novels about immortality cultivation suddenly began to circulate on a large scale among the people of Liyue.
This kind of sudden public opinion, even for a martial man like Tartaglia who had been in contact with the Rooster and the others, understood that this was definitely the work of Liyue’s official side.
The Millelith were frequently mobilized and sent to Jueyun Karst; some Fatui went to probe for news.
As a result, they found that those Millelith had suddenly become much stronger in a few days.
Plus, there were indeed more than one Liyue person, and even Fatui had seen it.
These past few days, strange streams of light frequently shuttled over Liyue and finally landed on the Jade Chamber.
Regarding this, the General Affairs Office’s explanation was that immortals had come to Liyue.
But Liyue’s immortals...
Who would fly on a sword?
All this information made Tartaglia have to suspect that something earth-shattering had really happened in Liyue.
And the root cause was in Jueyun Karst, or more precisely, the lightning tribulation that shook the entire Teyvat that day.
Driven by strong curiosity, plus Tartaglia also wanted to meet the Sword Immortal rumored in Liyue.
Tartaglia decisively let the Fatui stay honest, and he ran to Jueyun Karst secretly by himself.
Checking this, sure enough.
Those Millelith hadn't just become a little stronger.
