Chapter 79

"It's fine. At worst, we can just return to Guili Plains whenever we have time."

Seeing the reluctance in Little Ganyu's eyes, Jiang Yan comforted her softly.

"Mm."

Little Ganyu responded softly and rested her head on Jiang Yan's shoulder.

The two stood there silently for a long time.

A hundred years later.

To Jiang Yan's surprise, this peace lasted for over a hundred years.

Across the Liyue land, the archons fought with ever-increasing fervor; almost constantly, a war would break out.

But strangely, within the territory governed by Morax, no archon caused trouble.

Jiang Yan and Morax were naturally delighted by this.

Relying on the explosive population growth at Qingce Village, Jiang Yan began a grand-scale recruitment ceremony there.

The two thousand Millelith originally stationed here expanded, forming the Millelith Qingce Army, with twenty regiments under its command; each regiment was capped at 2,000 men, bringing the total strength of the Millelith Qingce Army to around 40,000.

Such a massive army also brought calamity upon the monsters surrounding the area.

It can be said that within the bounds of Qingce Village, large-scale monster-cleansing campaigns occurred from time to time.

Of course, Qingce Village's movements could not be hidden from the surrounding archons.

They were on guard against Qingce Village, and with Jiang Yan occasionally riding the Great Buddha to lead the Millelith Qingce Army to patrol near their tribes and scare them, any rustle or movement would catch their attention.

Compared to Qingce Village's grand actions, Guili Plains, as the political center, remained relatively peaceful.

With the army under Jiang Yan's control, Morax, Lady Guizhong, and others focused their efforts on commerce.

Externally, the people of Guili Plains mined ores and sold salt for daily necessities; internally, they implemented the garrison farming system, gathering grain and fodder to supply the army.

After establishing the Millelith Qingce Army, Jiang Yan returned to Guili Plains and successively founded the Millelith Guili Army and the Millelith Tianheng Army.

The Guili Army guarded Guili Plains, protecting the safety of the central core populace; it was the elite among elites, with its numbers capped at 10,000.

The Tianheng Army was led by the Five Yakshas, numbered 30,000, and stationed between Dunyu Ruins and Mount Tianheng; Azhdaha held Mount Tianheng, guarding against enemies from the Sea of Clouds.

As Guili Plains grew increasingly prosperous, more and more humans joined Guili Plains' faction.

This made countless archons covet this place.

But with the deterrence of Jiang Yan and Morax, the archons had the thief's heart but lacked the thief's courage.

And with the nearly century-long archon civil war in Tianqiu Valley finally ending, the situation across the Liyue land became subtle.

In the southern Sea of Clouds, Osial united numerous sea archons to form an alliance, creating a standoff with Guili Plains in the north.

In the west, the victors of the Tianqiu Valley archon war began to woo surrounding archons to dominate the Minlin region, with their territory even bordering Guili Plains; their purpose was obvious.

In the southwest, at Liyue Harbor's outskirts, the Dream Archon was dead, Dunyu Ruins belonged to Morax, and the remaining archons occupied Lingju Pass and Qingxu Pool, forming a coalition.

And in the Chenyu Vale region to the northwest, although bordering Qingce Village, no disturbances had been reported.

The strength and prosperity of Guili Plains had already made all archons on the Liyue land wary.

And during these hundred years, Jiang Yan frantically collected treasure chests.

After absorbing nearly a thousand ordinary treasure chests, Jiang Yan's constitution and elemental capacity had risen to a qualitatively higher tier.

Moreover, among the twenty-plus precious treasure chests he opened, one item appeared that made him overjoyed.

Senzu Beans!

Yes, the Senzu Beans from the Dragon Ball World!

The divine object that, once eaten, instantly restores all injuries and stamina!

Jiang Yan opened more than ten of them!

This kept him excited for a long time!
