Chapter 342: Return to Liyue (Please Subscribe!!)

The Heavenly Principles slowly recounted the past to Jiang Yan, attempting to make him understand his thoughts.

"So I said, those who deserve death must die; the innocent need not be implicated."

Jiang Yan looked at the Heavenly Principles calmly.

"I think you are not observing me for the first time; you should know my thoughts."

"Yes, I did observe you before."

Hearing Jiang Yan's words, the Heavenly Principles admitted this fact without hesitation.

"Although your nature likes to act recklessly, it is undeniable that you truly love those around you."

Suddenly, the Heavenly Principles remembered something and sighed abruptly.

"Alright, perhaps I know now."

"This time, I will grant your request."

Hearing the Heavenly Principles' words, Jiang Yan nodded.

Afterwards, Jiang Yan and the Heavenly Principles joined forces to act.

Jiang Yan used the Soul Gem in his hand to alter the memories of this group of humans and banish them to all corners of the world.

The Heavenly Principles cast a Curse upon those humans who had actively contacted the Abyss.

They wailed and cried out in pain as their bodies gradually twisted.

Not long after, a large group of Hilichurls appeared on the ground.

They chattered incoherently and fled wildly in all directions.

"By the way, isn't one of the shadows beside you missing?"

Jiang Yan looked at the three Sustainers remaining beside the Heavenly Principles and said with a smile.

"Hmph, just going to resolve a few matters."

"What, are you concerned?"

The Heavenly Principles Egeria spoke indifferently.

Jiang Yan shrugged, indicating he did not care.

After all, after the Heavenly Principles' Sustainers separated the twins, the main plot would begin in about five hundred years.

Speaking of which, should I start preparing for retirement once I return?

After all, I have served as the Qixing of Liyue for over two hundred and fifty years, even if I only truly handled government affairs for a few hundred years.

Jiang Yan stroked his chin, thinking with interest.

Otherwise, I could just hold on for a few more hundred years and simply hand the Qixing position to Ningguang.

By then, after cultivating Ningguang, I could retire peacefully and take Little Ganyu out to play!

That's not bad!

"Alright, matters are resolved, so I'm off!"

Jiang Yan said to the Heavenly Principles with a smile.

The Heavenly Principles nodded and vanished with the three shadows beside her.

Jiang Yan arrived at the edge of the desert and saw Morax, Lei Dianying, and Raiden Makoto waiting for him there.

The other gods had returned to their own nations, after all, the Lord of the Abyss, through the influence of Abyssal Qi, had driven all monsters across the Teyvat continent into a frenzy to attack the seven nations.

They still needed to resolve matters within their own countries.

"Are matters all resolved?"

Morax looked at Jiang Yan and asked.

"Yes. By the way, you should return first; I am going to Sumeru City."
