Chapter 38: The return of the departed! Dust Archon Guizhong! The unlocked Dust Lock!

That woman who prided herself on being wise had no idea that the divine throne had no attraction to Hearing Luo Li at all.

As his thoughts drifted, the words he suddenly spoke carried a trace of sadness.

"It's not easy to come back. I plan to go see her next. Do you want to go together?"

Morax understood who the "she" in his mouth was and shook his head gently.

"I won't disturb you two."

"Yesterday, the host and guests were happy, and I feel a bit tired. Let's wait a few days."

This was just an excuse; Morax wanted to leave the space for him and Guizhong.

Gently patting Hearing Luo Li on the shoulder, the Geo Archon turned and headed toward Yujing Terrace.

After the indulgence, many affairs in Liyue still required his decision; he couldn't waste time on sentimentalities.

Any powerhouse who had survived the ancient slaughter would not be dominated by emotions, at most occasionally reminiscing about the past.

Morax was very rational and kept his public and private life very separate.

Standing alone on the high platform for a long time, Hearing Luo Li examined this brand-new Liyue; it was ultimately not the way he remembered it.

However, this was also quite good.

…………

Guili Plains!

An endless plain with fertile soil for thousands of miles, with drifting reeds and lush grass swaying in the wind.

Puddles could be seen everywhere, providing a place for passing birds and cranes to rest, and noisy frog croaks sounded from time to time.

And in this wilderness that should have been quiet, an elegant figure was approaching from afar.

Although there were not many monsters living on the land of Liyue, occasionally there were Hilichurls blocking the way, and even caravans would bypass this place.

Over time, the land that should have been fertile had been abandoned for thousands of years.

When stepping onto this familiar place again, silhouettes from the past appeared in Hearing Hearing Luo Li mind.

Broken walls and ruins could be seen everywhere, and the damaged Guili Assembly had long since turned into ruins, with most of it buried in the lake.

The reason for this was that the Sea Archon had once invaded this area, but was bumped into by Morax near Qingce Village, leaving behind the corpse of his familiar, the Chi beast, and fleeing in a panic.

Hearing Luo Li guessed that the Sea Archon driven away by Morax should be the Watatsumi Omikami Orobashi, who was later beheaded by Ei.

Of course, it could also be another sea god.

According to the records of the Sea God Palace in the Jueyun Records, every Chi beast under his command was as large as Mount Tianheng.

Walking along the edge of the Guili Assembly ruins, Hearing Luo Li was unhurried, heading toward a specific location with a clear purpose.

It took a full hour before he completely passed through the damaged Guili Assembly and arrived at a secret place at the bottom of the cliff.

Along the way, the deep grass and trees grew taller and taller, until he reached the end of his journey.

It was a domain guarded by many barriers and spells.

There were many footprints around; in such a remote place, those who could come and go were mostly Treasure Hoarders or adventurers looking for treasure.

The entrance to the domain was a bit old, having weathered the wind and sun, and much of the skin of the mottled stone wall had peeled off.

Standing outside the entrance to the domain, Hearing Luo Li first checked it and found that many of the outer runes had dimmed and worn away.

However, a new seal had been recently inscribed, which looked like Morax's handiwork.

It was probably to prevent outsiders from breaking in.

Hearing Luo Li did not stay too long and stepped into the domain.

The runes on the wall glowed, and the spells and barriers swept over his body, seemingly detecting his identity, and soon returned to calm.
