Chapter 151: Love You~ (Please Subscribe!!)

"Boss, how much is this ore?"

Inside a jade shop on the street, a young man in a brown robe held a piece of stone amber and asked the shopkeeper.

That's right, the young man in the brown robe before us is none other than our Geo Archon, Morax!

At this moment, Morax had transformed, no longer in the state with dragon horns; he had completely taken the form of his later appearance and used the alias he had obtained while wandering with Jiang Yan: Zhong Li.

Ostensibly: wandering the mortal world!

"Ah, this Mr. clearly knows his stuff."

The boss quickly stepped forward, rubbing his hands together with a smile.

"This jade is top-grade, freshly unearthed from Liyue Harbor. Seeing your keen eye, I won't ask for much; ten thousand Mora, just the cost price."

Under Jiang Yan's deliberate suppression, inflation had not yet hit the Mora at this time; ten thousand Mora was already a huge sum even in Liyue Harbor.

"By general reason, it is indeed worth that price."

Morax nodded and said to the shopkeeper:

"Boss, I'll take it."

"Got it, this Mr. clearly has an extraordinary background. How would you like to pay in Mora?"

The boss asked with a smile.

"Hmm... I forgot my wallet when I went out today. Just put the bill on the Yuehai Pavilion account."

"I work at the Qixing."

Seeing the shopkeeper's face change, Morax feared he was being deceived, so he explained to the shopkeeper.

As the Geo Archon, working at the Qixing was not incorrect.

He could work anywhere... ah, no, inspect.

"I'll pay."

Just then, a gentle female voice sounded beside Morax.

A blue-haired woman with two horns on her head stepped forward and handed a bag of Mora to the shopkeeper.

"Gan... Lady Ganyu!"

The shopkeeper naturally recognized the visitor; the visitor was none other than the secretary of the Qixing, Little Ganyu.

"Hmm, this... Mr. does indeed work at the Qixing. I happened to pass by; there's no need to send the bill to the Yuehai Pavilion."

"Hello, Lady Ganyu."

Morax, pretending to be Little Ganyu's subordinate, said lightly.

"Em... Mr. Zhong, there is no need to address me so. Lady Tianquan wishes to see you; please come with me."

Little Ganyu's gentle smile stiffened slightly; clearly, she was unaccustomed to being addressed by Morax in such a manner.

"L-Lady Tianquan!!"

"Mr. Zhong is actually summoned by an Adeptus?!"

The shopkeeper was now completely stunned; he never expected the man before him to have such a formidable background!

"Hmm... I understand. Let me tidy up, and I will go."

Morax also paused for a moment; what was this kid Jiang Yan doing, neglecting his work to find him?

But since Jiang Yan was having Little Ganyu summon him, it must be a serious matter.

"Very well, then Mr. Zhong, please hurry. I will return first."

Little Ganyu nodded and turned to leave.

She was truly unaccustomed to speaking to the Archon in this way.

Morax chuckled lightly, holding the purchased jade, and left.

Third floor of the Yuehai Pavilion.

Morax, having returned to his original form, pushed the door open and entered.

"You're here!"

Jiang Yan sat at the desk in the center of the third floor, processing documents without raising his head.

"Hmm, what does our esteemed Chief Steward intend to find me for?"

Morax found a seat, looked at Jiang Yan's busy appearance, and couldn't help but tease with a smile.

"Hey, my Geo Archon, be careful or I'll quit."

Jiang Yan suddenly raised his head, looking at Morax in anger.

"Fine, I won't say it. You just keep working properly."

Morax laughed loudly and asked:

"What do you want with me?"

Jiang Yan stopped the pen he was using to review documents, stood up, and walked to the back.

"Here, the items are ready. Find a place to store them; they can't stay in the Yuehai Pavilion forever, can they?"

Jiang Yan handed two mechanisms to Morax.

"Only two?"

Disappointment showed in Morax's eyes.

He had thought there would be many.

"Don't rush; isn't the reason I called you here for this very matter?"

Jiang Yan chuckled and patted Morax's shoulder.

For some reason, Morax suddenly had a bad feeling.

"Look, this thing is formed by condensing the energy fluctuations produced after an Archon dies or self-destructs."

"So I plan to go to Minlin and turn those few remaining Demon Gods who fled back there into this!"

Jiang Yan spoke with a smile. The Morax before him tried to shake off Jiang Yan's hand resting on his shoulder, but Jiang Yan held him down firmly.

"But since I haven't been here for a month to handle state affairs, the backlog has become too great."

"This trip to Minlin will probably take several more months."

"Then what about the state affairs for these few months..."

Morax's eyes suddenly widened.

"You want to force an old man to work?!"

Jiang Yan looked at Morax with a speechless expression.

"Damn! Aren't you ashamed saying that? Look at yourself, where are you old?"

"Over three thousand years old isn't old enough?!"

"I think it's fine. After all, with age comes experience, making the handling of state affairs even more effortless."

Morax realized then that Jiang Yan was dead set on making him do the work for him.

"How about... I go suppress that group of Demon Gods and bring them to you?"

Morax came up with a compromise.

"Oh, forget it. If you just smash down with your Geo spear, how would those Demon Gods have the life left to come see me?"

Jiang Yan rolled his eyes.

"Besides, there aren't many Demon Gods in Minlin to begin with. If you kill one, there's one less of these things."

"If I don't go, you can't control the energy released when a Demon God dies."

Morax:......

"So, just give in!" (Zhao Zhao)

"Resistance is futile!"

Jiang Yan chuckled wickedly and patted Morax's shoulder.

"Then when are you leaving?"

Morax pondered for a moment, finally sighed, and asked.
