Chapter 19

"No, I'll get fat!"

"It's okay, I don't mind."

Jiang Yan laughed.

"Who... who cares if you mind or not..."

Ganyu turned her head awkwardly.

"What a sudden tsundere..."

Jiang Yan hugged her into his arms.

Burying his head in her hair.

Ganyu twisted her body slightly, but did not stop him.

"Sorry, I made you worry."

The hot breath with a faint scent of alcohol sprayed on the girl's neck, causing a blush. ===== CHAPTER 47 =====

After the banquet, Jiang Yan, who was so drunk he couldn't walk steadily, stumbled out of the tent.

Before he had walked two steps, he saw the person sitting on the hillside in the distance.

"Ganyu, what are you doing sitting here?"

Stumbling forward to sit beside her, Jiang Yan said with seven parts drunkenness.

"A-Yan, look."

Jiang Yan looked forward along Ganyu's finger.

That was a sea.

Specifically, a sea of flowers.

"This is..."

A trace of familiarity appeared in Jiang Yan's eyes, but his dizzy head clearly meant his brain had stopped working.

"That is the flower seed brought by Rex Lapis, named Glaze Lily."

Ganyu leaned gently on Jiang Yan's shoulder, smiling as she spoke.

"Ah... so it's this..."

Jiang Yan remembered the name of the flowers in this sea of flowers.

"Morax's taste isn't bad; this flower seed bought with two million jin of grain. It's definitely not a loss."

"Indeed, Rex Lapis's taste never goes wrong."

Ganyu smiled and agreed.

The wind blew gently across their cheeks, bringing a hint of the fragrance of Glaze Lilies.

"You like it?"

Jiang Yan pressed his palms together, then raised his hand.

In the sea of Glaze Lilies, the best-looking Glaze Lily suddenly broke through the soil.

A small vine curled around the flower and handed it to Jiang Yan's palm.

Jiang Yan picked up the flower and gently inserted it into Ganyu's hair.

"Ah!"

Ganyu exclaimed, a red glow flying onto her pretty face.

One flower, one person, one life.

"The most beautiful flower naturally must match the most beautiful person."

Jiang Yan had never seen such a beautiful Ganyu.

With the alcohol going to his head, Jiang Yan leaned over and kissed her.

Time seemed to stand still at this moment.

Ganyu did not resist, just shyly closing her eyes.

Their lips touched, and then there was no movement.

"Eh?!"

Ganyu widened her eyes suddenly.

The big boy before her was actually snoring.

He had fallen asleep!!

No!

Why would you fall asleep while kissing, hey!

"You..."

"You idiot drunkard!!"

Ganyu pushed Jiang Yan away in shy anger.

But then, she hugged him again, gently placing him on her round thighs.

Looking at the person sleeping before her, Ganyu gently tidied Jiang Yan's silver hair.

The wind blew gently, carrying a sweet scent.

In the distance, Guizhong, Cloud Retainer, Streetward Rambler, and a group of female adepti were looking at the two on the hillside with auntie smiles.

"Ah! Little Jiang Yan and little Ganyu are really so sweet..."

Guizhong covered her face with a blushing face, shaking her head left and right.

"Hmph! It's a bargain for that brat! He's not as cute as he was when he was little!"

Cloud Retainer snorted tsundere-ly.

"Before saying that, put down the corners of your mouth that are rising crazily."

Streetward Rambler covered her mouth and laughed, teasing the tsundere bird.

"Who... who is raising the corners of their mouth, hmph!"

Cloud Retainer was exposed by Streetward Rambler, her pretty face also a bit red, and she turned to leave.

"I'm going to see Rex Lapis and the others; Jiang Yan is so drunk, they probably aren't much better."

"Mm-hm? Don't think about running!"

"If a few big men are drunk, they're drunk; why are you going over there?"

Streetward Rambler hugged Cloud Retainer's human-shaped body.

"Oh my, why does it feel like yours is bigger again?"

"Really or fake?!"

Guizhong leaned over curiously, her eyes filled with envy.

"Ping!!"

Cloud Retainer was made to blush by Streetward Rambler's sudden attack.

"You two..."

"Stop it, hey!!!"

The breeze blew gently over the Glaze Lilies, carrying the fragrance of the flowers, and passed it into every household in Guili Plains.

Making the people in their sleep couldn't help but reveal a smile.

The next morning.

"Ugh... so thirsty!"

Jiang Yan opened his eyes in a daze.

What came into view was blue hair with a pair of horns.

Looking at the person sleeping in his arms.

Thoughts flashed through Jiang Yan's eyes.

Did I... last night...

I shouldn't have done anything, right?

Hiss!!! ===== CHAPTER 48 =====

Why did I drink so much alcohol last night?!

Jiang Yan beat his chest and stomped his feet, full of regret.

If I drink with Azhdaha and Marchosius again, I'm a dog!!

My beautiful first time!!!!

And the person in his arms woke up amidst Jiang Yan's movements.

"You... you're awake?"

Ganyu said softly, and thinking of what Jiang Yan did last night, she couldn't help but blush.

"Not awake, let's sleep a bit more!"

Jiang Yan didn't want to get up, hugging Ganyu tightly.

"Oh... if you're awake, get up quickly!"

Ganyu gently pushed Jiang Yan's chest.

"There are many things to do today."

Jiang Yan didn't want to, Jiang Yan didn't want to get up.

In the end, at the cost of Ganyu gently pecking Jiang Yan's lips, Jiang Yan got up with a grin.

As soon as he went out, he saw Marchosius passing by with a big pot.

And when Marchosius saw Jiang Yan walking out of Ganyu's room, the big pot in his hand fell to the ground with a clang. ===== CHAPTER 49 =====

"You... you two?!"

Marchosius looked at Jiang Yan, stammering.

Before Jiang Yan could speak, Marchosius began to exclaim:

"Rex Lapis!!!!"

"Jiang Yan is going to be a father!!!!"

Marchosius moved his round little legs and ran away quickly.

Jiang Yan reached out his hand, mouth agape.

"Don't spread rumors, you bastard!!!!"

"Although the war has been won, the pacification of the people of Qingce Village still needs detailed improvement."

In the conference room, Morax was discussing the arrangements for Qingce Village and Dunyu Ruins with the adepti.

Two Archons, one dead and one severely injured; the territories of Chi and the Archon of Dreams naturally fell under Morax's command.

The territory, which had suddenly expanded by about two times, meant that even Morax, who could usually slack off, had to take the field himself.

"I will go to Dunyu Ruins myself; Azhdaha needs to guard Guili Plains, and as for Jiang Yan... let him rest well and don't let him run around."

"But Chi is only severely injured and has not passed away; as for Qingce Village..."

Guizhong's tone held worry.

Morax also fell into deep thought.

"As for Qingce Village, I'll do it."

Jiang Yan walked in, yawning, and reached out to pick up a Sunsettia from the table.

"You should rest well, after all, you just experienced a war."

Guizhong said.

And Cloud Retainer snorted coldly.

"Hmph, just got back and you want to leave?"

Hearing Cloud Retainer's unkind tone, Jiang Yan waved his hand hurriedly.

"Oh, don't be angry, Sister Cloud Retainer, who said I'm going alone this time."

"I plan to take Ganyu with me to Qingce Village."

As he spoke, Jiang Yan took a bite of the red Sunsettia, frowning at the sourness.

Who bought these Sunsettias?

Twice now!!

"Take Ganyu with you?"

Morax thought for a moment.

"That is indeed a good choice."

Cloud Retainer did not refute this time.

Every time she saw Ganyu staying in the tribe alone, looking at Mount Tianheng, Cloud Retainer felt a pang of heartache.

She wished she could go and call Jiang Yan back from Mount Tianheng.

It wasn't that Cloud Retainer hadn't been to Mount Tianheng in the five years.

When she saw Jiang Yan sitting cross-legged and gradually turning into a stone statue, even she was startled.

To prevent scaring Ganyu, Cloud Retainer forcibly did not let Ganyu go, also fearing she would worry.

Fortunately, this kid would take Ganyu with him this time.

Then Cloud Retainer naturally had no reason to stop him.

"Ganyu has been learning to govern the tribe from me recently; with Jiang Yan escorting her, there's no problem."

Guizhong also nodded.

Several people discussed it, and finally made a general decision.

Jiang Yan and Ganyu, leading two thousand Millelith, would go to take over the territory of Qingce Village.

Rex Lapis would take Cloud Retainer, Mountain Shaper, and Moon Carver, and lead two thousand Millelith to Dunyu Ruins.

And the remaining five thousand Millelith would follow the five Yakshas and Azhdaha to Mount Tianheng to guard against movements from the Sea of Clouds.

To be honest, the fact that the Sea of Clouds side had no movement in this war was something Morax and the others had not expected.

The remaining Guizhong and Marchosius would guard Guili Plains, coordinating the transportation of supplies and logistics from all sides.

After discussing, everyone left.

Three days later.

Jiang Yan and Ganyu, with two thousand Millelith and supplies, left the tribe and headed toward Qingce Village.

The war between the Archons of Guili Plains and Qingce Village resounded through the north and south of Liyue (later Liyue's jurisdiction; at this time Liyue had not yet been founded, so it is called the Liyue land.)

The news that the Immortal Wood Spirit fought two Archons alone, one dead and one severely injured, was also known to all Archons.

More and more people acknowledged the status of Morax, the Geo Archon.

People who wanted to come here to seek shelter were naturally endless, and Morax's strength also slowly increased with the increase in faith.

Because faith can increase an Archon's strength, and Jiang Yan is not an Archon and has no Archon status, even if many people believe in him, his strength cannot grow.

The only thing that can increase Jiang Yan's strength is treasure chests!

This is also one of the reasons why Jiang Yan wanted to go to Qingce Village.

The treasure chests near Guili Plains had long been looted by him; this thing is not like monsters, which can regenerate in a couple of days, which also led to Jiang Yan needing to go to other areas to open treasure chests to continue improving his strength after finishing the Sage Mode.

Jiang Yan knew the plot.

Liyue has many Archons; it can be said that the Archon War only truly began its crazy slaughter in the later stages.

And Liyue is even more of a hell mode!

There are countless Archons in the sea; although Osial is a top-tier one, it only ruled the area of the Sea of Clouds.

Walking at the border of Guili Plains and Dihua Marsh, Jiang Yan suddenly looked toward the northeast.

"Who... whose troops are those over there?"

They saw that in the shattered and devastated Dihua Marsh, a group of humans were picking and choosing something there.
