Chapter 44: Return to Guili Plains

After resting for a while, Jiang Yan followed Morax and the others to the place where the Millelith were resting.

"Lord Archon! Immortal Lord!"

Seeing the returning crowd, the Millelith quickly moved forward.

And upon seeing the five Yakshas following behind the two, everyone's expression changed.

"Protect the Immortal Lord and the Lord Archon!"

Several spears were aimed at the five Yakshas.

"Don't be nervous, don't be nervous." Jiang Yan waved his hand, signaling everyone to lower their spears.

"These five are our own people; from now on, they will be your comrades-in-arms."

Jiang Yan patted the shoulder of the small-statured Xiao and spoke to the assembled Millelith.

"... Yes!"

The Millelith exchanged glances and lowered their spears.

"Alright, brothers!"

Jiang Yan clapped his hands and spoke loudly to the crowd.

"The war is over! We..."

"... have won!!"

As Jiang Yan's words fell, a cheer that reached the sky erupted within the Millelith camp.

This was their first time participating in a war.

Facing countless demons, they did not retreat!

And naturally, Jiang Yan and Morax could not let them down!

In this war, the Guili Plains belonging to Morax's side...

... achieved a great victory!

"Alright, brothers!"

Jiang Yan raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet.

"Save the words of victory for when we return; so now!"

"Form ranks!"

The Millelith stood up swiftly, gripping their spears tightly in their hands, once again demonstrating absolute discipline before their Lord Archon.

Although each of them bore wounds, every face was overflowing with the joy of victory.

Jiang Yan looked at the sea of people before him, and his originally serious face suddenly broke into a smile.

"Go home!"

Guili Plains.

At this moment in Guili Plains, Ruotuo's early return allowed the common people and everyone in Guili Plains to learn the news that the front line had achieved a great victory.

The Millelith, with their valiant momentum, annihilated countless demons under the Chi Dragon, achieving a great victory!

The Wood Spirit Immortal Lord even smashed two Archons on the battlefield, resulting in one death and one heavy blow with a heavy defeat and flight!

Countless common people roamed the streets, sharing their joy with other common people.

The Wood Spirit Immortal Lord's famous name also spread among the mouths of the common people of Guili Plains at this moment.

When they learned they were about to enter the territory of Guili Plains.

Almost all the common people came to the border entrance of Guili Plains, preparing to welcome the return of their army, the Immortal Lords, and the Lord Archon.

Lady Guizhong, Markus, Little Ganyu, and a host of other Immortals naturally stood at the very front of the common people.

Especially Little Ganyu, whose small head was raised as high as it could go, just to see the figure she wanted to see.

"They're here!"

Someone exclaimed, attracting everyone's gaze.

At the position where heaven and earth met, figures walking in neat formation suddenly appeared.

The Millelith's armor was stained with the blood of countless demons.

At this moment, the way they walked was like evil ghosts crawling out of hell.

They emitted a thick scent of blood and the aura of slaughter.

And Jiang Yan, Morax, and the third person walked in front.

The two wore battle robes, and their heroic figures were deeply imprinted in everyone's hearts.

Is this the Immortal Lord and the Lord Archon who protect us?

Is this the army composed of us humans?!

Strong!

Handsome!

These two words suddenly floated into the hearts of the common people.

"Immortal Lord!!"

"Lord Archon!!!"

"Immortal Lord!!"

"Lord Archon!!"

Amidst the cheers of the crowd, the Millelith and Jiang Yan and the others officially returned to Guili Plains.

A grand carnival took place in big and small places throughout Guili Plains.

Since Jiang Yan returned, Little Ganyu's eyes had been darting back and forth on him.

"I'm really fine!"

Jiang Yan wore an expression of utter helplessness.

"How could it possibly be fine!"

Little Ganyu puffed out her cheeks, looking thoroughly indignant.

"Those were two Demon Gods!"

"Let me take a good look right now!"

Having spoken, a certain coconut sheep went to lift someone's clothes to inspect them.

"No, no, no!"

"There are people here!"

Jiang Yan quickly grabbed Little Ganyu's restless little hand.

The crowd nearby said nothing, merely watching them with smiles on their faces.

Little Ganyu was driven by worry and paid no attention to her surroundings.

When she realized it, her small face instantly turned red; she sat there, head bowed, pretending to be a quail.

After three rounds of wine, a drunken Jiang Yan saw Little Ganyu sitting alone eating vegetarian dishes; he grinned and leaned over toward her.

"It's a grand banquet; eat something else."

A flicker of longing passed through Little Ganyu's eyes, but in the end, she shook her head.
