Chapter 80: Osial's Invitation

With the Immortal Beans in his possession, Jiang Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the plot of Teyvat had already changed because of him, he still could not be sure whether the great flood that destroyed Guili Plains would happen again.

Especially in that battle, Lady Guizhong perished!

Jiang Yan Cannot change human birth, aging, sickness, and death, but he was also unwilling to see his friends pass away.

With the existence of the Immortal Beans, it would be hard for Lady Guizhong and the others to die!

And just on this day, Jiang Yan received a letter from Morax.

"What did the Archon say?"

Little Ganyu stepped forward, looking at Jiang Yan's furrowed brow, and asked softly.

"He wants us two to return to Guili Plains; something major must have happened."

Jiang Yan spoke, then suddenly let out a sigh.

"A hundred years of peace, I suppose, is about to end."

"But over here at Qingce Village..."

Little Ganyu's tone carried worry.

During these hundred years, Jiang Yan had made Qingce Village as solid as a fortress; dozens of Guizhong Machines stood on the east, west, south, and north sides, and within its borders, the Qianyan Army patrolled.

"If this war breaks out, the main defenses should be against Minlin and the Sea of Clouds."

"I have encountered the Archon of Chenyu Vale; his strength is not great."

"If they invade Qingce Village, relying on the existence of the Guizhong Machines and the Qianyan Army, holding out until I arrive is no problem at all."

"Qingce Village needs to seal its borders; go notify the Qianyan Guards, have them order the Qianyan Qingce Army to blockade the borders, and charge all the Guizhong Machines with energy."

"I will pack some things, and we will go to Guili Plains."

Jiang Yan said to Little Ganyu; Little Ganyu nodded, turned, and walked out.

One week later, all the Adepti gathered at Guili Plains.

In the conference hall, Jiang Yan, Ruotuo, Lady Guizhong, Ma Ke, and Xiusi Heuliya, the five of them, sat in the front, while the rest of the Adepti sat behind them.

Morax sat at the very front, his gaze sweeping over the crowd.

"Everyone, I gathered you here one week ago mainly because Osial of the Sea of Clouds sent me a letter, inviting me to go discuss a great matter."

"What are your thoughts on this?"

Morax asked the crowd.

"In the past two years, there have been constant small moves from the Sea of Clouds and Minlin; this time Osial inviting you to go will absolutely not be anything good."

Lady Guizhong's face was Solemn.

"Why invite us now, after more than a hundred years, but specifically at a time when the situation is so tense?"

Li Shuidie Shan Zhenjun spoke in an angry voice.

"But despite that, we cannot ignore Osial's invitation."

Ma Ke spoke:

"According to news from the Qianyan Guards, Osial this time has not only invited us; he has also invited Minlin and the area of Lisha Suburbs."

"Hah, inviting all the big shots to gather in its territory? Does Osial not worry about not having enough room?"

Jiang Yan sneered.

"But if that is the case, we cannot choose not to participate!"

Little Ganyu spoke.

"Once Osial reaches some agreement with the Archons of other regions, we will be in a passive position."

"What I am worried about is not these things."

Morax shook his head and said in a deep voice:

"If I once leave Guili Plains, and once I am restricted there, who will guard the Guili Plains region?"

Speaking, he looked at Jiang Yan.

"And who will guard Qingce Village?"

"I have investigated the Chenyu Vale on the northwest side of Qingce Village many times; they have no intention of getting involved."

"But we must guard against it! Qingce Village has nearly two hundred thousand people, second only to Guili Plains; if something happens, nearly a hundred years of hard work will be destroyed in an instant."

Jiang Yan spoke in a deep voice.
