Chapter 48

Just now, he not only saw the Millelith soldiers' stance of not retreating in the face of an Archon.

He saw the Millelith commander not kneeling in the face of the Archon's pressure.

He also saw that this damn wolf actually wanted to do something to his group of excellent subordinates!

This filled Jiang Yan with killing intent toward Andrius.

"Adeptus Lord!!"

"Great!"

"It's the Adeptus Lord!!!"

The Millelith soldiers cheered as if they had found their backbone.

Jiang Yan heard their cheers and nodded at them in appreciation.

"Facing an Archon, you did not retreat; very good, I see the courage of soldiers in you!"

Hearing Jiang Yan's praise, the Millelith commander immediately stood straight.

The Millelith soldiers behind him saw their commander's posture and also stood up one after another.

"This is what we, the Millelith, should do!"

"It is also your duty as a soldier!"

The Millelith commander said loudly, his face full of pride.

The Adeptus Lord just now... praised them!

He had to brag about this to them when he got back!

"You are... the Wood Spirit Adeptus Lord under the Geo Archon?"

Looking at the nearly thousand-meter-tall Buddha in front of him, Andrius narrowed his eyes and said faintly.

Even though he was in the Mondstadt region, Andrius, whose territory was relatively close to the land of Liyue, had naturally heard this name from fleeing humans.

It was rumored that this Wood Spirit Adeptus Lord could summon a giant nearly a thousand meters tall; looking at it now, it was indeed true.

"Heh... they all say the Wolf of the North is extremely proud, yet you would actually threaten commoners."

Jiang Yan's tone carried a mocking meaning.

"I wonder what brings the Wolf Lord here?"

"Hmph! Brat, your tone makes me very unhappy!"

The Wolf Lord bared his fangs, releasing his own unique Archon pressure, wanting to intimidate Jiang Yan.

But Jiang Yan didn't buy it.

Jiang Yan remained calm, his eyes faint.

His Adeptus mask became even deeper, and the thousand-hand compass behind him began to rotate slowly.

There was a strong tendency to activate the Thousand-Armed Buddha.

"Hmph, boring!"

The Wolf of the North curled his lips and said:

"Stop, Wood Spirit Adeptus Lord."

"I have no intention of invading you."

Jiang Yan crossed his arms, but the thousand-hand compass behind him gradually stopped.

"Then what brings you here this time?"

The Wolf of the North turned to look behind him.

"You all, come out!"

A group of ragged people walked over tremblingly.

The moment they saw this giant Buddha descend behind the Wolf Lord, these people were so scared they couldn't stand up.

"I know I am not an Archon who loves humans, and I have no interest in being the Archon who protects them; these humans who fled to my territory are handed over to you."

After speaking, the Wolf Lord didn't care whether these humans were accepted by Jiang Yan or not, turned around, and led the wolf pack back to that land of wind and snow.

0 ·Ask for flowers· ·······

Jiang Yan looked faintly at the departing back of the Wolf of the North, saying nothing and making no move.

Immediately, he looked at this group of humans, his eyes fluctuating slightly.

"Where... did you flee from?"

Those humans walked up tremblingly and knelt before the Buddha.

"Res... Respected Adeptus Lord!"

"We... we were once the subjects ruled by the Lord of Storms."

"But the Lord of Storms' rule was too brutal, we couldn't bear it, and could only flee to seek protection..."

0 . ...

The leader tremblingly told their origin, and Jiang Yan's furrowed brows also relaxed.

"The Lord of Storms... that would be the Lord of Towers, Decarabian."

"Since that is the case, as long as you are willing to devoutly believe in the Geo Archon, then come in."

Jiang Yan put the Millelith back on the ground, clapped his hands, and the Buddha dissipated upon impact.

Just as Jiang Yan had finished dissolving the Buddha and wanted to order the Millelith to arrange for this group of humans.

A person wearing white-gold battle armor descended from the sky.

Zhongli held the Vortex Vanquisher, his gaze fixed on the surroundings.

"Has the matter been resolved?"

He looked at Jiang Yan with confusion.

When Ganyu informed Zhongli of the matter, he had rushed over as quickly as possible.

He didn't expect to be a step late.

"Yes, that top-tier Archon is the Wolf of the North from the Mondstadt ice fields; he had no intention of invading us."

Jiang Yan said.

"Then he was for..."

Zhongli's gaze suddenly looked at the group of ragged people beside Jiang Yan, and a look of realization appeared in his eyes.

"So Andrius just sent these humans here?"

Zhongli frowned; a dignified top-tier Archon, bored out of his mind?

At this moment, Jiang Yan suddenly spoke.

"Rex Lapis."

With outsiders present, Jiang Yan's address to Zhongli became much more respectful.

"What?"

Zhongli turned to look at Jiang Yan.

"You go back first, I have some small matters to deal with here."

Jiang Yan stretched his limbs, making his palms crackle.

He had a belly full of fire that he hadn't vented yet.

Zhongli looked at Jiang Yan's unhappy expression and knew what he was going to do.

"Are you sure? Don't need me to follow?"

Zhongli was ultimately a bit worried.

"Rest assured, it's not like you don't know my strength."

Jiang Yan smiled at Zhongli.

Zhongli smiled helplessly and instructed:

"Be careful, then I'll return to Guili Plains first."

After speaking, two giant rock hands appeared under Zhongli, carrying him back.

Watching Zhongli's departing figure, Jiang Yan turned to look at the Millelith and the group of people.

"Liu Xian, come here for a moment."

Jiang Yan called the Millelith commander's name, signaling him to come over.

"Lord Adeptus!"

Millelith Commander Liu Xian stepped forward and bowed respectfully to Jiang Yan.

"No need for formalities. You take a few Millelith soldiers and settle these refugees."

Jiang Yan instructed Liu Xian, then said to the group of refugees: "Well, just follow them; they will settle you properly."

"Yes! Task guaranteed to be completed!"

Liu Xian struck his spear against the ground, standing straight.

Jiang Yan nodded and stomped his right foot on the ground.

His whole body became like a streak of light, flying toward the direction of the Mondstadt snowfields.

Mondstadt snowfields, Dragonspine.

Amidst the extreme cold wind and snow, a giant snow wolf was leading a pack of wolves forward slowly.

With Andrius’s protection, the wolf pack did not feel the bitter cold brought by the wind and snow.

"Oh my, the environment in Mondstadt is really quite poor."

"No wonder a slacker like Barbatos would blow away the wind and snow here."

Jiang Yan sighed.

Before the wind and snow could approach his body, it seemed to be driven away by something, bypassing Jiang Yan.

"Let me see..."

"Found it!"

Jiang Yan flew forward for a while and finally found Andrius’s figure.

"Heh, finally found you."

With a light chuckle, Jiang Yan raised his right hand, and countless fierce winds gathered in his palm.

A scorching light burst from his palm and gradually expanded.

Andrius also sensed that something was wrong with the wind direction around it.

A strong sense of crisis surged in its heart.

It looked up at the sky.

It saw Jiang Yan standing high in the sky, raising his right hand.

A fireball like the sun was constantly condensing and expanding.

Andrius’s expression changed.

"Wood Spirit Adeptus! Are you trying to start a war with me?"

Andrius roared at Jiang Yan.

"Don't put it that way."

"I have no interest in this barren land of yours."

Jiang Yan said indifferently.

"It's just..."

"That intimidation you just performed on my subordinates..."

"I'm very unhappy about it!"

After Jiang Yan finished speaking, he threw the fireball condensed in his right hand toward Andrius.

"Awoooo!!!"

Andrius dared not be careless; it felt a strong sense of crisis from this massive fireball.

"North Wind Kingdom!!"

Fierce winds swept through, and a domain of extreme cold spread from under Andrius’s feet.

Andrius’s final cold light condensed, and a blue shockwave with infinite power sprayed toward the fireball thrown by Jiang Yan.

BOOM!!!

The ice-blue shockwave collided violently with the sun-like fireball.

Heatwaves and cold winds swept through, and countless steam dissipated in the sky, falling like ice crystals.

Jiang Yan clenched his fists, and a pearly-white light circle condensed in his hands as he punched toward Andrius.

"Quake, Great Quake!"

"Crack... crack!"

The air in front was shattered by Jiang Yan and began to spread rapidly in all directions.

BANG!!

As Jiang Yan’s right fist completely shattered the air.

In an instant, the earth shook and the mountains swayed, and the snowfields collapsed.

The intense destructive power generated by the vibration bombarded Andrius like a landslide.

Fierce winds howled around Andrius, and its fur bloomed with an ice-blue luster.

"BOOM!!"

The destructive power of the vibration hit Andrius, but it did not cause any damage.

It only forced it back several steps.

"As expected of a top-tier Archon, the power of vibration actually couldn't break your defense."

Jiang Yan stood high in the sky and said indifferently. ===== CHAPTER 258 =====
