Chapter 203: Parting (Please Subscribe!!)
After resolving the matter of Watatsumi, Jiang Yan and Lei Dianying quickly returned to Narukami Island.
Upon learning of the Watatsumi incident, Raiden Makoto also swiftly dispatched personnel from the Tenryou Commission to garrison Watatsumi, and under the protection of the feather gifted by Kapariki, successfully purged the internal affairs of Watatsumi.
Some personnel from the Yashiro Commission also entered to instruct the indigenous inhabitants.
After assisting the Tenryou Commission, the Thunderbird Kapariki was taken by Raiden Makoto and others to Seirai Island.
Since Aru was too young to support the conditions for a long journey with Kapariki, Kapariki decided to accept Raiden Makoto's request.
She would become the guardian of Seirai Island, protecting this place for Inazuma.
With Jiang Yan's intervention, the Thunderbird Kapariki and Aru did not meet the tragic fate from the previous timeline's plot.
At Amakumo Peak, Lei Dianying, Raiden Makoto, Jiang Yan, Kapariki, and others sat together.
Aru stood on a rock, singing loudly.
"La la la..." (There are no lyrics in the plot; imagine them yourself.)
"It sounds so good..."
Raiden Makoto murmured, while the others were also intoxicated by Aru's singing.
This time, the song was filled with joyful sounds...
A few days later, at the port of Lidao.
"Then we will see you off here."
Jiang Yan looked at the Fox Zai Gong, Hu Qiandai, Lei Dianying, Raiden Makoto, and others before him, and said with a smile.
The Ministry of Civil Administration had thoroughly negotiated the remaining trade issues with the Inazuma side, so naturally, there was no need for Jiang Yan to stay here any longer.
For these past few days, Jiang Yan had not gone out, staying to assist Raiden Makoto, Fox Zai Gong, and others with government affairs, and occasionally sparring with Lei Dianying.
As the Grand Steward of Liyue, Jiang Yan possessed unique insights into management.
This was one of the reasons why Raiden Makoto and others humbly sought his advice.
They also benefited greatly.
And Orobashi Chiyo, also known as Hu Qiandai, had previously been resentful because Jiang Yan had injured Lei Dianying.
But after spending a few days together, she felt that Jiang Yan was not as detestable as she had imagined.
Just yesterday, when Jiang Yan told them he was leaving, Raiden Makoto and others were all momentarily stunned.
Immediately after, their expressions dimmed.
Indeed, nearly half a month of companionship had made them almost forget that Jiang Yan was the Tianquan of Liyue.
With Jiang Yan's guidance over these half a month, the quality of life for the people of Inazuma had clearly improved compared to before.
Raiden Makoto even felt an impulse; she wanted Jiang Yan to stay in Inazuma forever.
But the words reached her lips, yet she could never speak them.
As the leader of Liyue, Jiang Yan was naturally a figure second only to one and superior to ten thousand in that wealthy land.
How could he possibly look favorably upon a small place like Inazuma?
To thank Jiang Yan, Raiden Makoto prepared a farewell banquet in the evening with her friends to express gratitude for Jiang Yan's contributions to Inazuma over these past few days.
And finally, the moment of parting arrived.
Jiang Yan stepped onto the Gui Li ship, looked at the crowd standing at the port, and said with a smile:
"Everyone go back; I am preparing to leave."
Raiden Makoto and others said nothing, but the fact that no one left indicated their meaning.
"Oh, I didn't say I wouldn't come again in the future; there's no need for this."
Jiang Yan looked at the reluctant expressions of the few people before him and felt somewhat helpless.
"Besides, Liyue and Inazuma are so close; if you miss me, you can come to Liyue for a visit."
