Chapter 111

~9 min read 1,763 words

At least no Archon-level battles have broken out directly to affect anything.

And in the video, the Taixuan Sect clearly intends to use the ancient Go Go Go Liyue land as a base to radiate to the other six nations.

If the Taixuan Sect really unifies the Teyvat continent, then humanity can start an era of cultivation.

Just as Taixuan Sect Master Gu Chen said: weakness, sickness, disaster, short life—these will no longer be human defects!

Humanity becoming stronger as a whole will inevitably have its downsides. The only thing to worry about is humans fighting each other after conflicts break out.

But this has already been solved by the far-sighted Sect Master Gu.

Not to mention anything else, an introductory chapter is enough to reduce the hidden dangers by more than half!

The Taixuan Sect is the anchor of this world, enough to suppress everything!

This day, Morax found an Archon.

This Archon was sighing.

He couldn't fight and couldn't run, so he had to agree to join the Taixuan Sect.

After leaving the Archon's territory, Spirit Venerable (Azhdaha) couldn't help but ask, "Can signing a contract guarantee that he will be honest? I think he seems to have quite a few little thoughts..."

"No matter."

Morax shook his head to signal the Spirit Venerable to relax, then laughed lightly, "If he violates the contract, then the next visit won't be easy to talk about... Even if the sky falls, the contract must be completed, unless I am unable to act by then!"

"But even if I am unable to act, the Sect Master will naturally take action to deal with him."

Spirit Venerable laughed loudly upon hearing this, "That's good. Hurry up and find the next Archon, scare the other side well, and then I can find the Sect Master to reward me with something..."

The Taixuan Sect rewards and punishes clearly.

There is a reward for merit.

Spirit Venerable is already thinking about what the Sect Master with lofty ambitions will reward him with.

"Let's go, next... well, Salt Archon Havria," Morax said.

"The same authority as you?" Spirit Venerable was stunned.

"Not rock, but salt, the salt of table salt," Morax said.

"What is that?" Spirit Venerable was puzzled.

"It's a salty thing. Humans need to ingest a little bit of this to be healthy... This Archon's authority happens to be able to manufacture salt on a large scale. I heard she also has a treasure that can continuously manufacture salt," Morax recalled.

"That sounds like a good thing. Are we going to rob her?" Spirit Venerable was eager to try.

"Haha."

Morax shook his head and laughed, "How can there be such a reason? The Taixuan Sect is reasonable."

"Since you are reasonable, why did you let me scare the other side first?" Spirit Venerable's tone was strange.

"It's not like that. Sometimes you have to show your strength so that the other side will listen to you," Morax said.

"So that's how it is..." Spirit Venerable understood a little.

"I don't know how many Archons will fall in this era of great struggle. The wheels of history will ruthlessly crush everything... But the Taixuan Sect has come, and the humans of this world are blessed. Other Archons choosing to join the Taixuan Sect is actually a good thing. At least there is no worry about life, no need to worry about being expelled, and no need to be restricted in freedom. The only thing that needs to be followed is the sect rules."

While speaking, Morax and Spirit Venerable had arrived at a small island in the sea.

This place is called Sal Terrae in later generations.

"This place is so small, several times smaller than the territories of other Archons." Spirit Venerable squatted on the shore, his huge body being washed by the sea, and his huge tail stirred up large waves as it swayed.

Being in the sea made him feel a bit uncomfortable; there was no heavy feeling of stepping on land to make him feel at ease.

"Salt Archon Havria is not an Archon with powerful authority."

Morax shook his head and said, "She is too weak, too accommodating, and too soft. Even if the Taixuan Sect were not here, she would inevitably be a loser in the Archon War."

"She is an Archon who loves people and cannot bear to see people suffer from war. It's just a pity... I heard that the humans she took in have quite a few complaints about this Archon's avoidance and concession."

"Why would that be?" Spirit Venerable was even more confused.

"Perhaps she thinks that as long as she gives up before the struggle happens, the war will not affect her and her people?"

Morax shook his head; he didn't quite understand this either.

"Archons are all exhausting their strength and wisdom to compete for the continent. Can this Archon's endless avoidance and concession... really avoid the ravages of war?"

[Miss Miss Keqing]: I heard before that some people questioned the death of the Salt Archon Havria, and some even suspected that the Geo Archon coveted the Salt Archon's authority to continuously manufacture salt, so he killed the Salt Archon. How absurd! (Miss Miss Keqing: Sulking)

[Miss Miss Ganyu]: In three thousand years, I haven't heard that the Geo Archon and the Salt Archon had too much interaction. I remember the Salt Archon's death seemed a bit inexplicable, and the Geo Archon at that time was not in Sal Terrae, but fighting elsewhere... So why was the Salt Archon's death pushed onto the Geo Archon? (Questioning)

[Miss Miss Miss Miss Miss Ningguang]: How can people with short-sightedness face the greatness of the Geo Archon? They can only hide in no-man's-land like rats in the sewer, harbor hostility toward the Geo Archon, and wantonly smear the Geo Archon.

[Venti]: By the way, how did the Salt Archon die? @[Seeing Seeing Seeing Seeing Seeing Zhongli]

[Seeing Seeing Seeing Seeing Seeing Zhongli]: Killed by her own people.

[Venti]: Ah?

[Kaeya]: Ah?

[Shikanoin Heizou]: Mortals assassinated an Archon?!

[Navia]: An Archon was actually assassinated by her own people?! (Paimon: Surprised)

[Kaveh]: No, why did her people kill her?!

[Gu Chen]: It's a bit abstract, but in that era when Archons were competing for the continent's authority, there were wars everywhere. The people protected by the Salt Archon had complaints because the Salt Archon was weak and made endless concessions... Is there a possibility that this group of people felt that there was no future following the Salt Archon Havria, so they killed Havria and then turned to the embrace of the Geo Archon? As for smearing the Geo Archon, it should be that some of these people's descendants still believe in the Salt Archon and cannot understand the Salt Archon's death, but these people clearly don't know what their ancestors actually did. (Funny)

[Miss Miss Keqing]: No wonder this group of people would smear the Geo Archon like this; it turns out their ancestors were dirty. I don't know if these people will collapse if they know the truth.

[Sangonomiya Kokomi]: If the Salt Archon's personality is really like this, then when Morax and Azhdaha go there, she should agree to join the Taixuan Sect without hesitation, right? In this way, her death could be avoided, right? (Sangonomiya Kokomi: Contemplating)

The Salt Archon Havria was really too weak.

Anyone can accuse her of dealing with things wrongly in this world, but the humans under her rule cannot.

They were already receiving the grace of the Salt Archon, and in the end, they actually wielded swords against the Archon who protected them. What kind of thing is this?

Morax and Spirit Venerable's arrival didn't hide their powerful aura at all.

One is a top Archon, and the other is a Dragon King who lives as long as the earth; the aura they emitted was incomparably terrifying.

This made the Salt Archon Havria panic. She didn't understand why two powerful beings suddenly came to the door.

Hesitating, she seemed to realize that this was her territory and she had no way to retreat, so she could only bite the bullet and come out to greet the two.

The Salt Archon Havria was petite, and the clothes covering her body shimmered like salt crystals in the hot sun. Her delicate face carried a faint look of anxiety and panic.

"Salt Archon, Havria?" Spirit Venerable spoke.

The voice like a bell sounded like a heavy hammer, making Havria terrified. She nodded weakly, "I, I am."

Spirit Venerable turned his head to look at Morax speechlessly.

Morax laughed for a moment and then said seriously, "Havria, have you heard of the Taixuan Sect?"

"Taixuan Sect..."

Havria was a bit lost.

The name of the Taixuan Sect was famous in this ancient Go Go Go Liyue land.

Archons feared and were vigilant against the Taixuan Sect.

Humans longed for and admired the Taixuan Sect.

The reputation of the Taixuan Sect disciples outside was very good. They would teach humans how to protect themselves in the wilderness, how to get food that was safe to eat,

and how to continue the fire of human civilization.

The more humans longed for the Taixuan Sect, the more Archons feared it.

In the eyes of the Archons, the Taixuan Sect was also here to compete for this world, and in fact, it was.

For a time, Havria's face was pale, and she said helplessly, "Killing me should be enough, right?"

Morax: "..."

Spirit Venerable: "..."

After looking at each other and being speechless, Morax sighed and said, "Join the Taixuan Sect, or be expelled. Choose for yourself."

"Eh? Eh?"

Havria was stunned.

She originally thought the Taixuan Sect visitors were here to attack her.

She didn't expect them to give her a choice to join the Taixuan Sect?

It is well known that the Taixuan Sect is very powerful, and that Sect Master killed eight Archons in one move.

Havria knew her strength was shallow, so she nodded without much hesitation, "I am willing to join the Taixuan Sect!"

"This one is sensible," Spirit Venerable said.

Morax looked at Havria and said, "Follow me. There are two last Archons that need to be negotiated with."

"What about the people who follow me?" Havria asked.

"You don't have to worry. Sect disciples will come to deal with it. However, I must remind you that some humans with bad character will not be qualified to receive the protection of the Taixuan Sect, and what awaits them is being expelled," Morax said.
