Chapter 20: Humans of Dihua Marsh
Listening to Jiang Yan’s words, Ganyu also noticed that group of humans.
"Judging by this direction, they should be humans living in the Salt of the Earth." ===== CHAPTER 51 =====
Jiang Yan lowered his head in thought.
Salt of the Earth?
Ah...
That should be the territory of the God of Salt.
Jiang Yan rubbed his chin.
In the plot of his past life, the death of Havria, the God of Salt, was full of tragedy.
This kind and benevolent god chose to evade in the midst of this cruel Archon War in order to protect her people.
Yet, in the end, she was killed by her own people.
"The power of salt..."
Jiang Yan was considering whether to pull Havria into his own camp.
Although Havria did not possess very powerful combat strength, her authority was a very good one.
Salt production, whether in the Teyvat continent or his past life, was a very important industry.
Only when the Archon War ended and the Seven Archons established the seven nations would the important role of salt be reflected.
Since that is the case! Then let's go take a look!
Anyway, didn't she, Havria, want to find a safe place?
What could be safer than joining Guili Plains, which possessed the combat strength of five Archons?
"Wen Yi, take two people over there and call these people over."
"Keep your tone gentle, don't be so rough."
Jiang Yan instructed the leader of the Millelith behind him.
"Yes! My lord Immortal!"
After receiving the order, Wen Yi quickly took two people beside him and headed toward the place where the humans were gathered.
When those humans who were picking up things saw two soldiers wearing black armor walking over, their faces revealed expressions of terror.
"Black gold armor... it's the Millelith!"
"It's over, it's over! Will we be killed?"
After this war ended, the prestige of the Guili Plains Millelith had spread far and wide.
Almost all humans knew that there was such an army formed by humans that, when facing the attacks of tens of thousands of monsters, had wiped them all out.
It was enough to see how fierce their combat strength was.
This also made some humans very afraid; they killed monsters as easily as killing chickens or dogs, let alone humans?
Some timid humans squatted on the ground in fear, while some humans ran toward the northeast.
"Don't be afraid! We are the Millelith!"
Wen Yi thought he had revealed a very kind smile.
But his face, which already looked ferocious, appeared even more hideous under the smile.
Some humans didn't even dare to look directly into Wen Yi's eyes.
"Is there something the matter? My lord?"
One of them asked, emboldening himself.
"It's like this, our lord Immortal wants to ask you a few things and would like to invite you to come over for a trip."
Wen Yi pointed behind him and said kindly.
With Jiang Yan's instructions beforehand, Wen Yi's tone was still very kind.
"Im... Immortal?!!"
"Is it that Wood Spirit Immortal who, with a non-Archon body, fought two Archons alone?!!"
These humans had expressions of excitement in their tone; their eyes held nervousness and fear, but more than that, excitement.
That is the Immortal!!
The Immortal wants to see us!!!
The man who asked the question at the beginning suddenly started rolling his eyes in excitement and, with a "thud," lay on the ground.
"Ah, this..."
Wen Yi was a bit confused for a moment.
He didn't understand why this group of humans had such a big reaction upon hearing that the Immortal wanted to see them.
Even Jiang Yan in the distance was startled.
Damn it!
What did that kid Wen Yi say to them?!
How come someone suddenly fainted???
"My lord, he was just too excited. We are willing to go and meet the lord Immortal!"
Another person walked up with a fawning expression on his face and said to Wen Yi.
Wen Yi frowned and nodded, saying to the person in front of him.
"You go ahead and gather everyone, then come over."
After speaking, he took the two soldiers and walked back.
"Hey, hey, hey, Wen Yi, what did you say to them?"
"How come someone fainted?"
Seeing Wen Yi come over, Jiang Yan asked quickly.
And Wen Yi repeated what had just happened to him.
Jiang Yan was left between laughter and tears after hearing the reason.
What is all this?
Fainted just from hearing my name?
Hey!
My charm doesn't seem small at all.
Ganyu, standing to the side, watched her boy's narcissistic appearance and couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle.
And the humans over there, after tidying up, also gathered toward the direction where Jiang Yan was.
"Pa... pay respects to the lord Immortal!"
One of the humans was about to kneel on the spot, but was stopped by Jiang Yan reaching out.
"I am not an Archon, and I don't care for this kneeling business. Just call me lord Immortal."
Jiang Yan said with a smile, his bright and sunny smile also shining into the hearts of this group of humans.
Ho... how kind and gentle the lord Immortal is!!
Jiang Yan's image also began to gradually rise in the hearts of this group of humans. ===== CHAPTER 52 =====
"Where are you from, and why did you come to Dihua Marsh?"
Although Jiang Yan already generally knew where they came from, he still had to ask.
"We are the people sheltered by the God of Salt, currently living in the Salt of the Earth."
These humans answered honestly.
Jiang Yan nodded; it seemed his guess was not wrong.
"Then... can you take me to see your God of Salt?"
Hearing Jiang Yan's words, several humans suddenly panicked and knelt on the ground one after another.
"No!"
"Spare us, lord Immortal!!"
"The lord God of Salt is kind and benevolent; she is a good Archon!"
"Please, lord Immortal, spare the life of the God of Salt!"
Jiang Yan, after all, had a fierce reputation; his record of suppressing two Archons was no joke.
This group of humans instinctively wanted to protect their own weak Archon and kept begging the Immortal. ===== CHAPTER 53 =====
