Chapter 699: We've been friends for thousands of years, so how can you still be so cheap

Jiang Yan warned Morax not to cause too much trouble in Liyue.

"Rest assured, I had no chance to appear in the first place."

"Isn't it because someone gave me some work to do?"

Morax looked at the other person speechlessly.

Jiang Yan thought for a moment; it seemed that was true.

"Oh dear, oh dear, after all, this is your retirement; how can the protagonist not make an appearance?"

Jiang Yan chuckled, looking as cheeky as possible.

However, Morax clearly had no intention of pursuing this matter with Jiang Yan further.

Compared to this matter, the thing Jiang Yan was going to do next seemed more important.

"When do you plan to go?"

Morax asked softly.

Since this matter was now known, in Morax's view, it was best to resolve it as soon as possible.

"What's the rush? No hurry!"

Jiang Yan waved his hand and said to the other person.

"Anyway, that black mist doesn't even know when it appeared; it's been thousands of years since those Archons fled there, so one or two days won't matter."

"Wait until I've enjoyed the show... ah, no, wait until I've seen the Traveler meet you before I leave!"

"After all... uh... after all, she is Little Ganyu's good friend; we must handle things properly."

Jiang Yan had almost let it slip.

He had gone to great lengths to get the Traveler to meet Morax; such a fun thing as Morax guiding Lumine to meet him.

It would be a real pity not to see it with one's own eyes!

This guy...

Morax looked at the other person with a helpless expression.

You just said 'the show,' right? You actually just want to watch the show, right!

You've been friends for thousands of years, so how can you still be so cheap?

Morax didn't even bother to criticize the other person anymore.

All criticism seemed so powerless against Jiang Yan's thick-skinned face, thick as a city wall!

And naturally, Jiang Yan's face showed no sign of embarrassment for having let it slip.

We've been old partners for thousands of years; what embarrassment?

It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter!

"Even so, you should be prepared on your end."

"Don't be as reckless as you were a thousand years ago."

Morax warned Jiang Yan.

After all, back then, he, Little Ganyu, Lady Guizhong, and others were truly terrified.

"Oh dear, oh dear, rest assured, rest assured!"

Jiang Yan smiled and waved his hand at Morax, speaking in a very relaxed manner.

"I do have some sense about this."

Jiang Yan certainly had sense; after all, that incident back then was caused by an accident.

Who would ever think they could fight the other person for over two thousand years?

There was no way; both of them were bugs.

One had the Dog Talisman, the Horse Talisman, and the Infinity Stones.

An existence that was immortal and indestructible in every way.

The other was empowered by a strange black mist, also an indestructible existence.

"As long as you have sense, that's good."

Hearing Jiang Yan's confident tone, Morax said no more.

Suddenly, as if remembering something, he asked Jiang Yan:

"By the way, aren't you going to tell Little Ganyu and the others about this?"

"Don't go off without saying a word and hiding it from everyone like last time."

As soon as Morax mentioned Little Ganyu, Jiang Yan's eyebrows furrowed slightly.

He had indeed overlooked this matter.

After all, back then, Little Ganyu had been angry with him about this for a long time.

He had coaxed her for several months just barely to make up with her.

"Of course, I must tell her."

After much deliberation, Jiang Yan finally decided to tell Little Ganyu.

This time was not like before, when he had no confidence at all regarding the Abyss.

Jiang Yan did not feel that going out this time would be like before.

They were just a bunch of misfits who had failed in the Archon War.

Even with the support of the black mist, it still wouldn't work.

Archon-level combat power was not considered very high-end combat power for Jiang Yan.

Even the Lord of the Abyss, derived from the erosion of the Sea of Quanta, was nothing more than an indestructible punching bag before Jiang Yan.

Back then, the Lord of the Abyss relied on his own indestructible trait to trade injuries with Jiang Yan.

In the end, as they kept swapping, he himself could no longer hold on.

"Need me to explain for you?"

Morax spoke to Jiang Yan.

"No need, I'll handle it myself."

Jiang Yan shook his head and said to the other.

"This isn't anything major; Little Ganyu shouldn't have any objections."

Probably...

"Heh, then you'd better explain well. You know, because of that incident a thousand years ago, the shadow it left on Little Ganyu is not small."
