"Don't be nervous, drink some water first."

Saying this, she taps the table lightly, and a cup of warm water floats towards the Debt Collector.

The latter hurriedly takes it, his eyes full of reverence:

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After drinking it in one gulp, the nervousness of facing the two Harbingers and the Cryo Archon vanishes.

"Sit down and talk."

The Cryo Archon points to the chair opposite, and signals Signora and Arlecchino to sit down as well.

"Tell us everything you saw and experienced when you entered Shushan."

The Debt Collector nods seriously.

"Yes!"

"Early this morning, my subordinate and two other Debt Collectors, Anbieta and Rhodes, followed Lord Tartaglia to the waiting location."

"Then, Shushan disciples, Ningguang, Keqing, Ganyu, and others came..."

Although the Debt Collector tries very hard to calm down and tell the Cryo Archon about what happened today.

But he finds it very difficult to do so.

Everything in Shushan, that massive Azure Bird that is almost like the sky, just its aura is stronger than the Cryo Archon before him.

The demon beasts running on the ground are even more common at hundreds or thousands of meters.

The high mountains pierce the clouds, presenting a posture of supporting the sky.

All kinds of mysterious and magical scenery, no matter how much he wants to say, he cannot express even a fraction.

He stammers for a long time, making Signora and Arlecchino frown.

If it weren't for the fact that only this Debt Collector knows what happened inside, Signora would have beaten him up.

The Cryo Archon also sees that this Debt Collector cannot say anything logical, so she raises her hand slightly and says helplessly:

"How about this, I ask, you answer, is that okay~?"

The Debt Collector pauses and nods in shame.

The Cryo Archon ponders for a moment and says softly:

"First, Tartaglia and the remaining two Debt Collectors all successfully joined Shushan, right?"

The Debt Collector nods, then shakes his head.

"Lord Tartaglia passed the six-layer Heart-Questioning Array and successfully joined Shushan, but Anbieta and Rhodes, one became a chore disciple, and one stayed in Shushan to learn martial arts."

The Cryo Archon asks curiously:

"Chore disciple? Is there a difference?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The Debt Collector hurriedly explains:

"Before the assessment, Lord Tartaglia took us to gather around those people like Baiwen from Liyue, and we heard some internal news about Shushan."

"In Shushan, the hierarchy is strict. The Shushan Sect Master is the highest ruler and also the strongest existence."

"Secondly, there are the Seven Sages Elders, who are the strongest after the Sect Master, but they have not yet returned to their positions."

"Next are the heads of each peak and the inner sect elders."

"Like Rex Lapis and Barbatos, they are the current acting heads of Dragon Head Peak and Morning Sun Peak."

"Adventurer Alice is an elder of the Law Enforcement Hall."

"These three are all in the late stage of Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation."

As soon as the words fall, Arlecchino's eyes brighten slightly, and she says softly:

"What is the strength of the Shushan Sect Master?"

Hearing this, the Debt Collector pauses, swallows hard, and his eyes are full of fear.

"It is said... that he is at the peak of Spirit Refining and Void Returning, only one step away from Refining Void and Combining Dao, preparing to ascend to become an immortal..."

The Cryo Archon and the others look at each other, somewhat silent.

Zhongli is only in the late stage of Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation, and Shushan Sect Master Jiang Yan is at the peak of Spirit Refining and Void Returning...

What kind of strength is that?

The Debt Collector thinks for a moment and continues:

"It is said that there are dozens of Archons in the outer sect elder council, and the two strongest among them are existences that surpassed top-tier Archons who traveled outside the Teyvat world."

"These elders... were all captured into Shushan by the Sect Master."

"Listening to what Secretary Baiwen said, that Shushan world, a Shushan world that is ten times the size of Teyvat."

"Was created by the Shushan Sect Master with one hand..."

"He only appeared for a brief moment today, but at that moment, heaven and earth submitted, as if the entire world was not as vast as him alone."

"My subordinate... feels... that the other party can easily destroy Teyvat."

The Cryo Archon frowns and remains silent.

"Shushan Sect Master, Jiang Yan, right?"

Arlecchino murmurs, seemingly wanting to keep this name in mind.

But the Debt Collector is shocked.

"Lord Knave! You must not call his name!"

"My subordinate heard from Baiwen and the others that as long as one is in Teyvat, or even in some Quantum Sea, whenever someone mentions the Sect Master's name."

"The other party will perceive it and cast their gaze over to observe."

"He is the legendary person who cannot be spoken of."

"Therefore, most of them only dare to refer to him as the Sect Master, and never call that person's name directly."

Arlecchino's eyes are somewhat complex.

"Can such a thing be done..."

"I suppose it shouldn't be wrong, after all, Liyue has been in contact with Shushan for longer."

The Debt Collector wipes the cold sweat from his forehead.

Arlecchino takes a deep breath, letting herself not think about these things anymore.

"Continue."

"Yes!"

The Debt Collector organizes his language and continues:

"After the heads and inner sect elders, there is the current Sect Master's true disciple, Klee."

"Her current mentor is Alice, the Law Enforcement Elder of Dragon Head Peak."

"I heard that in Shushan, this true disciple Klee is the person you absolutely cannot provoke. She is the Sect Master's only disciple, and she is also a legendary Divine Body."

"Her strength is extremely strong, and it is said that she is no worse than an Archon without any magic treasures."

"Once she uses the magic treasure given to her by the Sect Master, she can even destroy all the Archons in Teyvat."

"Her cultivation level is in the middle stage of Essence Refining and Qi Transformation."

The Cryo Archon looks at Signora, who feels a bit awkward hearing the name Alice, but still nods and starts taking notes.

"After that, there are the other two Divine Body possessors, although they are not the Sect Master's true disciples, their status is also very special."

"~Traveler Lumine and Paimon."

"Their strength is also very strong."

"The rest also have some special constitutions, such as Keqing, Shenhe, Yae Miko..."

Seeing that the other party is about to say everyone's name, the Cryo Archon raises her hand slightly and says softly:

"No need to be so detailed, tell me who needs special attention."

The Debt Collector pauses, thinks for a moment, and says softly:

"If you need special attention..."

"It's probably these four people: Ganyu, Xiao, Lisa, and Baizhu."

Seeing the Cryo Archon signal him to continue, the Debt Collector doesn't dawdle.

"Ganyu is the first disciple of Tongtian Peak, and she has a very good relationship with the Sect Master. She often represents him, so she can be considered the Sect Master's spokesperson."

"Her strength is at the peak of Essence Refining and Qi Transformation, plus various magic treasures and spells, it is said that even top-tier Archons cannot withstand a single move against her."

"The most critical thing is that she has a spirit beast, the Azure Bird, which is good at speed. That spirit beast is in the early stage of Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation."

The Cryo Archon is silent for a moment, signaling the somewhat frightened Signora to continue recording.
