Chapter 141: The Crimson King Akhmar

After Jiang Yan gathered the energy storm from the demon gods' self-destruction, Morax also sensed no more danger and dismissed his shield.

"It's dealt with?"

Rex Lapis came to Jiang Yan's side and asked.

"Mm, basically no more problems."

Jiang Yan nodded, even bouncing the energy orb in his hand a little.

"Are you sure you can keep it stable?"

Morax also stepped forward, his expression solemn — clearly, he had sensed a palpitation-inducing fluctuation within that orb.

After all, it was an orb formed from the compressed energy of over ten demon gods' self-destruction.

Even Jiang Yan did not dare to set it down carelessly.

If mishandled, this thing was a timed nuclear bomb.

He had to find a way to seal it away for safekeeping.

Jiang Yan shared his thoughts with Morax.

Morax was silent for a moment, then turned to look at Jiang Yan.

"Sometimes I really want to crack open your skull and take a look — why is it you always come up with these strange ideas?"

"But this idea, I agree with."

Morax and Jiang Yan exchanged a glance, each smiling slightly.

A cold smile.

So cold that Rex Lapis Long Wang standing to the side couldn't help but shiver.

These two devils!

They wouldn't even let go of the energy fluctuations released after the demon gods' deaths!

Morax! You've gone bad learning from that kid Jiang Yan!!!

"When we get back to Liyue Harbor, I'll call Lady Guizhong and Liuyun out and have the two of them try using their mechanisms to see if they can seal this thing away."

Morax said to Jiang Yan.

Jiang Yan nodded.

"Before that, I'll just stay inside that cluster of rock spears you smashed out on the sea — I wouldn't dare keep this thing in Liyue."

Jiang Yan said, looking at the energy orb before him.

After all, he needed to constantly maintain the energy fluctuating within the orb; if some accident happened at Liyue Harbor, it wouldn't simply be a matter of destroying the hard-built Liyue Harbor — it would be far worse than that.

"Fine, then let's head back to Liyue Harbor first, and you just wait for us over there."

Morax nodded, then turned to the Xiao Yue Zhu Yang Zhenjun beside him and said:

"Xiao Yue, you and Yi Xiao Dao Tian, along with Rex Lapis and the others, stay here to clean up the battlefield. The Thousand Rocks and Light Strategy Army should take over here immediately."

Rex Lapis, once things here are fully stabilized, then return to Liyue Harbor.

"Yes!"

Rex Lapis and Xiao Yue Zhu Yang Zhenjun and the other adepti nodded in reply.

"Then I'll head back ahead and let Lady Guizhong and the others know."

Morax turned and said to Jiang Yan.

"Mm, go ahead, I'll fly over in a bit."

Jiang Yan nodded, but there was one thing he hadn't said yet.

That was — he'd have to wait a moment.

If he wasn't sensing wrong, to the west and north of Chenyu Valley, there were still demon god auras.

Only those areas were in the territory of Sumeru's rainforest and Fontaine's marshland.

Jiang Yan planned to lug this thing along and go have a little chat with them about life.

"Don't do anything rash."

Morax, worthy of having lived several thousand years, saw at a glance that this kid Jiang Yan was definitely still up to some little trick.

"Aiya, relax, relax — you know me, don't you?"

Jiang Yan said with a sheepish grin.

The moment those words came out, even Rex Lapis Long Wang and Xiao Yue Zhu Yang Zhenjun looked at Jiang Yan with skeptical gazes.

Heh, precisely because we know you, we know you're definitely not brewing anything good right now.

"Mm, then I'll be off first."

Morax didn't expose Jiang Yan's little schemes — in his view, with Jiang Yan's strength, letting him cut loose a little was fine.

As long as he didn't provoke the one up in the heavens, Morax was still confident he could protect him.

Let him cut loose.

After bidding farewell to everyone, a giant rock hand condensed beneath Morax's feet, and he flew off toward Liyue Harbor.

And after watching Morax leave, Jiang Yan said to those beside him: "Then I'll be off too, to handle some matters."
