Chapter 640

Snezhnaya lies in the northern lands, situated in a frigid region; though it possesses some mineral resources, these cannot satisfy Liyue's needs.

And the financial losses incurred.

Therefore, destroying Snezhnaya would not only remove an opponent capable of spurring Liyue's growth, but also result in significant financial loss for Liyue.

The cost outweighs the gain.

There is no need for it either.

"Heh, this time, the primary cause lies with Dottore."

"Since the chief culprit has already been executed, this time, I can, out of respect for the First Tsaritsa, spare Snezhnaya's life."

"But, just as I said, Second Tsaritsa, you had best not pull any more tricks from behind my back."

"Whether against Liyue or anyone else."

"I do not care whom you intend to resist, nor what deal you made with Morax."

"Do not cross my bottom line."

"Otherwise, this time it was Dottore; next time, it will be all of Snezhnaya!"

"By then, I will no longer show consideration for the First Tsaritsa's sake."

Jiang Yan spoke calmly, then addressed the floating sky fortress hovering beside him.

"Little Shenhe, notify Little Beidou and Scaramouche that they may withdraw their troops."

"Also, tell Little Ningguang to send someone to negotiate with Snezhnaya; all expenses incurred by Liyue's deployment of the army this time shall be fully compensated by Snezhnaya."

"As for the exact amount of compensation required, let Little Ningguang decide it herself."
