Chapter 769: Just Kidding, Would Morax Be Without Mora? (Please Subscribe!!)

Jiang Yan, looking down from above, watched the armies below slaughtering each other endlessly while the common folk inside laughed and joked; hmm... how to put it? It was utterly mocking!

Know why we aren't worried? Sigh, because you simply can't reach us! Does that make you angry?

"..."

"..."

"You..."

At this moment, Morax, seeing Jiang Yan sit down, was stunned; hey, didn't you just come looking for me? Why are you here again?

"Oh my, Mr. Jiang, you've arrived."

The teahouse owner looked at Jiang Yan with a beaming smile, making Jiang Yan feel a chill run down his spine.

"Uh, h-hello, boss."

"Since you're here, let's settle the bill~"

As expected! I knew Morax's gaze had been averted when he saw me—so he's added it to the tab again.

"How much?"

The voice squeezed out of Jiang Yan's throat made Morax's hand, which was holding tea, tremble slightly.

"Not much, not much; a total of one million Mora."

No choice; Jiang Yan paid out of his own pocket once more.

"You, Morax, you Morax can't be without Mora?"

"In fact, the currency merely borrows my name; it does not mean I must use my divine power to construct Mora."

"Hah, you're so high and mighty; you make me pay."

"Enough, enough, let's not talk about that; what exactly is your contract with the Second Tsaritsa?"

Jiang Yan was somewhat curious, wanting to know if it was the same contract as in the plot.

"Hmm... the contract I forged with the Tsaritsa is the contract that ends all contracts."

As expected, just like in the plot, even now, their contract still exists.

"However, with the Abyss joining in, I am unsure whether the Tsaritsa will still abide by it."

Morax's worry was not unfounded; what if the Tsaritsa, with the Abyss's help, became swollen with pride, thinking herself so incredibly powerful, and simply seized the Gnosis by force?

Imagine, even powerful Liyue was defeated; then would other nations still have the will to resist? Would they not obediently present their Gnoses?

Of course, this still rests on the conditions that Liyue is defeated and that Phanes will not intervene.

"Then, in a few days, I will go find the Lord of the Abyss; I never thought that after the fall of Khaenri'ah, they would seek cooperation with the Tsaritsa again."

Hearing Jiang Yan's words, Morax placed his teacup on the table and looked at Jiang Yan.

"Impossible."

"Hmm?"

Hearing Morax refuse him, Jiang Yan was greatly surprised.

"Why? Aren't you also unsure whether the Tsaritsa, with the Abyss's help, will still fulfill your contract? Moreover, no one knows whether that black mist currently possesses the ability to autonomously invade others."

"This... isn't there you? Haven't you already resolved the black mist in the Dark Outer Sea? Surely these black mists are no match for you."

Hearing Morax's confident tone, Jiang Yan felt a mix of emotions.

So I'm just the safety-net tool!

"Besides, do you think the current situation shows whether Liyue can be mastered by humans themselves?"

Speaking thus, Morax directed his gaze to the street.

"Look, do they now consider Snezhnaya's arrival a crisis? What they rely on is merely your training methods and the tools crafted by Yun-Han, Guizhong, and Lady Guizhong."

Hearing Morax's words, Jiang Yan pondered carefully; yes, their current confidence and strength are also built upon the Adepti's help; only when facing a true crisis can one see whether Liyue can truly be ruled entirely by humans.

"Then what should I do now?"

"No rush; drink tea; this tea is excellent."
