Chapter 325

And a clear voice of Jiang Yan also rang in Ruo Tuo's ear.

"Very well done, Ruo Tuo, step back a bit."

"Leave these to me!"

Ruo Tuo was stunned, then looked with delight at Jiang Yan who suddenly appeared before him.

"Jiang Yan!!"

"You've woken up!"

Ruo Tuo shouted with delight.

Jiang Yan turned back to look at him with a smile and said:

"Sorry, I slept a bit too deeply, but fortunately, I didn't wake up too late."

Just as Ruo Tuo and Jiang Yan were chatting, the archons surged up again.

An archon roared and swiped a claw at Jiang Yan.

"Jiang Yan, be careful!!"

Ruo Tuo cried out in alarm, but Jiang Yan made no move, as if he hadn't reacted.

Boom!!!

The archon's claw struck Jiang Yan's head, and the aftereffects of the attack sent waves rippling around Jiang Yan.

"Tsk, you bunch of scum."

Jiang Yan, as if nothing had happened, looked lightly at that archon with his eyes.

"Could you..."

"... while I'm chatting with someone..."

"... just stay put, you bastard!!!"

Jiang Yan grabbed the archon's head, then raised a fist high.

"Star Shatter!"

Boom!!!

A bright fist light accompanied by a terrifying shockwave instantly covered the surging horde of archons before him.

These archons hadn't even had time to wail before they were all smashed to death by Jiang Yan's single punch, leaving not a speck of dust behind.

Immediately after, Jiang Yan waved his hand.

The resentful spirits of all the dead archons and the energy erupted at their deaths gathered in Jiang Yan's palm.

A huge archon bomb appeared in Jiang Yan's hand.

Then, he looked back at Ruo Tuo, saw his dumbfounded expression, and said with a smile:

"What, shocked by this young master's handsomeness?"

Seeing Jiang Yan's grinning face, the corner of Ruo Tuo's mouth twitched slightly.

Just now, he had indeed been shocked by the power Jiang Yan had unleashed.

Since Jiang Yan hadn't fought much in Liyue, Ruo Tuo's understanding of Jiang Yan's strength still lingered on the time Jiang Yan sparred with Morax while building Liyue Harbor.

Although he knew Jiang Yan would grow, he hadn't expected his strength to skyrocket to such a degree.

That single punch Jiang Yan had thrown just now made even Ruo Tuo feel a chill of fear.

He finally understood why Jiang Yan had secretly left Liyue Harbor back then, and why Morax said he couldn't stop him.

With just that one punch, let alone Morax, even he, who boasted explosive defense, wouldn't be able to withstand it.

"Where did you run off to before?"

"Do you know how worried everyone was when your clone suddenly disappeared?"

"Didn't you see the way Little Ganyu was then, you..."

As soon as Ruo Tuo saw Jiang Yan, he couldn't help but start complaining.

Jiang Yan hurriedly interrupted, saying:

"There were just some matters that needed resolving, and after finishing them, I was too exhausted and slept a bit too deeply."

You call that sleeping deeply?

Ruo Tuo, the Dragon King, recalled how Ma Ke, in order to wake Jiang Yan, had even ridden on Jiang Yan's neck with his short little legs and slapped his face left and right.

Yet even then, Jiang Yan not only took no damage at all, but his breathing remained very steady.

"Ah hahaha, I'll give you an explanation for these things once this period passes."

Jiang Yan smiled awkwardly and scratched his head.

Then, he handed the archon bomb he had condensed in his hand to Ruo Tuo.

"Take this bomb to Lady Guizhong and have her seal it away."

"I've had Jiang Xiaobai take Apep to support other war zones in Liyue; leave Liyue Harbor to you for now."

Jiang Yan spoke to Ruo Tuo, and upon hearing Jiang Yan's words, Ruo Tuo was also stunned.

"You're not coming back with me? Wanting to go somewhere on your own again?"

Ruo Tuo looked at Jiang Yan, his eyes narrowing slightly.

Clearly, Ruo Tuo still held a grudge over the fact that Jiang Yan had left Liyue without permission before, causing himself to fall into a deep sleep and be unable to wake.

"Uh..."

Jiang Yan's body stiffened, as if his secret had been exposed; he laughed and patted Ruo Tuo's shoulder.

"Don't worry, don't worry, I'm just going to see the Archon."

"There are some things; if I don't handle them myself, I just won't feel at ease."

Jiang Yan smiled, and Ruo Tuo fell silent.

"Be careful this time; do not make the same mistake as before."

"If it happens again, Little Ganyu and Lady Guizhong cannot withstand a second blow."

Ruotuo knew that with Jiang Yan's current strength, trying to stop him was nothing but a foolish dream.

Yet he still needed to warn Jiang Yan.

Before acting on impulse, one must think of the people behind him.

Jiang Yan said nothing, merely patting Ruotuo's shoulder hard.

Immediately after, his toe tapped the sea surface, and he launched himself into the air, flying toward Inazuma.

"Rest assured; I will not make the same mistake again."

From far away, Jiang Yan's voice reached Ruotuo's ears.
