Chapter 132: Founding Liyue (Seeking First Subscription! Seeking Subscriptions!!)

With the addition of Ma Ke and the others, the speed of relocating the populace and forging the new city also increased considerably.

Jiang Yan assembled the Qianyan Guili Army and the Qianyan Tianheng Army from the border, drawing a portion from each, and also called Xiao back to join them.

One month later.

The relocated citizens all joined this grand city-building movement one after another.

They saw Dragon King Ruotuo sense, through the leylines, a fine piece of stone, and Morax used his Geo power to manipulate it into rising into the air.

Xiao followed behind, hugging the stone the moment it flew out, and zipped toward where Jiang Yan was with a "Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

Jiang Yan caught the boulder Xiao delivered, then, using the properties of vector manipulation, continuously reshaped its form according to the blueprint's style.

In the end, an exquisite stone relief appeared, carried away by the Qianyan soldiers.

City-building thus proceeded in full swing.

With the help of the adepti and the gods like Morax, the area south of Mount Tianheng changed day by day.

Finally, after nearly half a year.

A brand-new Liyue Harbor appeared before everyone's eyes.

At last, once the Jade Chamber's site was completely constructed, nearly everyone burst into cheers.

Jiang Yan also gazed at this Liyue Harbor he had helped build, and a feeling both strange and familiar suddenly welled up inside him.

Especially standing atop the Jade Chamber, looking at the scenery around him.

Although the planted vegetation had not yet begun to grow, Jiang Yan believed that, with time, Liyue Harbor would flourish just as it had in the game.

"What are you thinking about?"

Morax stepped forward and asked softly.

"Looking at the place we built with our own hands."

Jiang Yan's tone carried a sense of emotion.

"Yes... Today at last, this city is finally built."

Morax and Jiang Yan gazed at the scenery together, sharing the same sentiment.

No one had expected that a god who never contended with the world, who had no wish to vie for dominance, would become the victor of this land.

And this victor was precisely the one despised by Chi, the God of Dreams, and Osial...

The Geo Archon, Morax!

"The capital is already established; it's time to prepare the matter of founding the nation."

After a long while, Jiang Yan suddenly spoke.

"Mm, once Lady Guizhong and Little Ganyu finish drafting the basic laws, we just need to set a date."

"The Xingyuba Sect and Xingheba Sect systems have been in preparation for half a year now. As you said, you'll serve as the chief of the Liyue Qixing, the Tianquan."

Morax began laughing as he spoke.

"Come to think of it, you proposed the Xingyuba Sect and Xingheba Sect systems just so you could be more idle, didn't you?"

"Who would've thought that, by a twist of fate, you ended up getting dragged into it yourself."

Jiang Yan's face immediately darkened.

"Enough, shut your mouth."

Jiang Yan said irritably.

"Busy? Could I be busier than you, the Geo Archon?"

"Hey, don't say that. I only direct the direction of development once a year; specifically speaking, I'm still relatively idle."

Morax gave a slight smile, and no matter how Jiang Yan looked at that handsome face, it just begged for a smack.

"Alright, old man, just shut your mouth already. I don't want to hear you talk anymore."

Jiang Yan wore a helpless expression.

"Hmph, boring. I'll go check on Ruotuo and the others."

Perhaps having had his fill of teasing Jiang Yan, Morax strolled off humming a little tune.

Jiang Yan stood at the Jade Chamber.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got.

Damn!

From now on, he had to make sure Morax never had a moment's rest!

Whether he had business or not, he had to go find him for a chat.

The people's revelry lasted all the way until evening.

At night, the crowd gathered around the Jade Chamber, watching the common folk sing and dance, celebrating the birth of Liyue Harbor.

The revelry continued deep into the night.

Returning to his room in the middle of the night, Little Ganyu saw Jiang Yan sprawled on the bed, dead drunk beyond recognition.

Although Jiang Yan's capacity had reached a level close to a thousand cups without getting drunk over the past hundred years.

But who could withstand Ma Ke and Ruotuo taking turns pouring drinks into him?

The key was, these two usually looked all simple and honest, but when it came to drinking, they were sharper than anyone.

After starting with a modest two cups, they first made Jiang Yan sign a pact that whoever used elemental power would be the loser.

And they freaking did it right in front of Morax.

Then they began taking turns aggressively pouring drinks into Jiang Yan.

And so Jiang Yan ended up in this state.
