That’s ridiculous!!

Looking at the four pots in front of him, Jiang Yan didn’t know why, but he wanted to laugh.

For a moment, Jiang Yan didn’t know what to say to Cloud Retainer.

"This... of course not! This is just on the surface!"

Cloud Retainer’s eyes darted around, looking very abnormal.

0 ·Ask for flowers· ·······

Jiang Yan looked at the other party strangely; this fellow was probably feeling guilty.

"Hey, hey, hey, what kind of look is that!?"

Seeing Jiang Yan’s look, Cloud Retainer immediately bristled.

In her view, this was a sign of Jiang Yan’s distrust of her invention.

How could Jiang Yan trust it?!

Just look at these pots where you can still vaguely see the explosion marks.

You want me to trust it?

Trust my foot!

"Fine, fine, go ahead and experiment."

Jiang Yan said helplessly to the other party.

At the same time, the Space Gem was already glowing, ready to seal the space at any moment.

No matter what, one must do what needs to be done.

Morax glanced at Jiang Yan indifferently.

..... ..... 0

He had already sensed a faint fluctuation coming from around Jiang Yan.

Good heavens, what exactly did Cloud Retainer do to make Jiang Yan so vigilant?

Morax couldn’t help but become curious.

Could it be that, just as Jiang Yan said, this semi-automatic cooking tool Mark II that Cloud Retainer made also had problems?

However, before Morax could ask anything, Cloud Retainer had already started throwing ingredients into the pot regardless.

Since the things were already brought out, this meal today.

I, Cloud Retainer!

Will definitely make it!!

"Rumble..."

All the ingredients were constantly rolling and stirring in the large pot.

Accompanied by several roaring sounds.

Immediately after, flashes of faint fire flickered from within the pot.

Jiang Yan: ......As expected!

Morax: !!!!

Morax looked at Cloud Retainer with suspicion.

No, it’s just cooking.

Fire is coming out of the pot?

Are you refining medicine or cooking?

Seemingly sensing Morax’s gaze, Cloud Retainer coughed dryly and explained with a lack of confidence:

"That, this is just a normal phenomenon, yes, a normal phenomenon!"

As she spoke, Cloud Retainer looked at the churning ingredients in the pot, her eyes filled with a hint of worry.

It wouldn’t really go wrong, would it?

However, facts proved.

The second-generation semi-automatic lazy cooking tool that Cloud Retainer modified this time did indeed have some improvements.

At the very least, it didn’t explode.

Well, but it was limited to not exploding the pot...

Jiang Yan and Morax looked at the pitch-black food on the plate in front of them and fell into a long silence.

"Hehehe, that, there seemed to be a little accident halfway through..."

Cloud Retainer stood there with an awkward smile.

She had originally thought that she could use this second-generation semi-automatic lazy cooking tool to properly slap Jiang Yan in the face.

She wanted to prove that her invention was not some useless thing.

But now it seemed that she had failed.

Failed completely.

But at least, it didn’t explode the pot like last time.

"Hmm... generally speaking, Cloud, there doesn’t seem to be any need to modify this machine of yours anymore..."

Morax finally realized why Jiang Yan had such a big reaction when he heard Cloud Retainer wanted to use this thing to cook.

Good heavens.

It’s no wonder Morax had such a big reaction.

It can only be said that after seeing the food in front of him, Morax even thought Jiang Yan’s reaction was a bit small.

"Sigh, that, I’d better go buy some food."

Jiang Yan sighed lightly, and then, a portal opened behind him.

When the three of them finished their meal.

Before they could even finish cleaning up the bowls and chopsticks.

At the foot of Mount Aocang, the sound of constant fighting came out.

"They should have arrived."

Jiang Yan said to Morax with a smile.

"Hmm."

Morax nodded expressionlessly.

He didn’t even bother to look at Jiang Yan.

There was no need to look at all.

No need to even think about it.

At this moment, Jiang Yan’s eyes must be filled with playfulness.

Seeing that there was no expression on Morax’s face.

This made Jiang Yan a little unhappy.

Tsk.

I thought I would see some fun expression.

As a result, he’s like a paralyzed face.

Jiang Yan, who didn’t get to see the fun, was very unhappy.

However, thinking that there was still a good show to watch later, Jiang Yan quickly recovered his mood.

Then, he said to Cloud Retainer beside him:

"Cloud, let’s go hide; I’ll show you a good show later."

Morax glared at Jiang Yan, but didn’t speak.

And Cloud Retainer had already known what these two were going to do when Morax came over earlier.

So she shook her head in front of Jiang Yan.

"No, the Lord of Geo has already discussed it with me."

"This time I will appear first, and the Lord of Geo will come out later."

Jiang Yan was stunned when he heard Cloud Retainer say this.

Hmm?

Cloud Retainer is also going to appear?

Jiang Yan looked at Morax with some confusion.

"Yes, this time it is indeed necessary for Cloud to appear first."

This time, Morax did not remain silent; he nodded and then explained his plan to Jiang Yan.

It was for Cloud Retainer to appear first, because Mount Aocang is Cloud Retainer’s adepti abode, so there is nothing wrong with her appearing first.

Then, after the Traveler asks about the whereabouts of the Lord of Geo, Cloud Retainer will give the other party a certain test, and only then will they be able to see the Geo Archon of Liyue, Morax!

After all, a god is not someone you can see just because you want to.

Do you think everyone is like Venti next door, slacking off all day and not doing proper work?

Jiang Yan was stunned after hearing Morax’s plan.

Damn it.

You can even put on airs like this?!

Originally, Jiang Yan had hoped to see Morax’s embarrassed look.

Tsk tsk tsk, this guy is good; he came up with such a plan.

He directly elevated the status of the Geo Archon.

"Alright then, alright then."

"I’ll find a place to hide."

Jiang Yan shrugged, not saying anything more.

Then, in his mind, the Snake Talisman suddenly lit up, and his whole person suddenly disappeared from where he was.

Then Jiang Yan moved around a few times and found a place to hide.

"This guy Jiang Yan really has many strange abilities."

Seeing Jiang Yan disappear, Cloud Retainer muttered something there.

"Just take it easy, this guy has quite a few things hidden on him."

Morax said with a smile.

No one knows Jiang Yan’s specific strength now.

But since meeting Jiang Yan thousands of years ago.

Everyone has always been able to discover some strange abilities on him.

Especially the growth of his strength, it is simply too fast.

Even though he hasn’t practiced the sword much, he can slash out a sword strike that makes gods tremble, like the sword marks in Guili Plains.

Although everyone is very confused, no one asks.

Everyone has their own secrets, don’t they?

What’s more, Jiang Yan is on their side; the stronger he is, the more the Morax faction benefits.

"Yes, this guy, despite having such strong strength, is always acting so sloppy."

Cloud Retainer sighed.

"Alright, you should get ready too; I’ll find a place to stay and wait for your news."

Morax said to Cloud Retainer.

Cloud Retainer nodded, and then Morax also disappeared from where he was.

At the same time, at the foot of Mount Aocang.

"Hell, why are there so many Ruin Hunters here?"

Lumine said with some impatience after cutting down the last mechanical treasure.

"Yeah, we’ve fought at least a dozen on the way here."

Paimon’s tone was also a bit tired, but also carried an excited look.

"But according to the news Moon Carver gave us, this should be Cloud Retainer’s adepti abode."

"It’s also the last adepti abode in the area; we’ve asked all the other adepti, and the Geo Archon should most likely be here."

Hearing Paimon’s words, Lumine also nodded.

"I hope so!"

Lumine’s eyes carried a hint of seriousness.

Then, the two walked toward the summit.

Just arriving at the summit, looking at the empty scene around them, both Lumine and Paimon frowned.

"Traveler, look!"

At this time, Paimon pointed to the small table in the center of the lake and said.

"That seems to be a place for adepti to rest."

"Let’s go there and take a look."

"Maybe there will be some clues!"
