Chapter 87: First Entry into Sumeru (Please subscribe!!)

Sumeru Rainforest.

The Akademiya side, established by Greater Lord Rukkhadevata, also received notification from the Liyue nation.

The Liyue Grand Superintendent, the head of the the Liyue Qixing, Wood Spirit Immortal, would land at Port Ormos to visit Sumeru.

Because Sumeru and Liyue had not established diplomatic relations for long, Greater Lord Rukkhadevata also attached great importance to this matter.

Immediately, she had the Grand Sage of the Akademiya lead the people from the Akademiya's diplomatic department to Port Ormos to welcome him.

Sumeru had changed a lot in the past three hundred years.

The golden age ruled by the three kings was long gone.

The death of the Goddess of Flowers drove King Deshret mad; he came into contact with forbidden knowledge and was ultimately devoured by this knowledge, and the once-vast golden kingdom was destroyed overnight.

And Greater Lord Rukkhadevata, who obtained the position of the Dendro Archon, tried her best to eliminate the influence brought by the forbidden knowledge.

Jiang Yan didn't know about the death of the Goddess of Flowers because too many Archons died in the Archon War, and even if Jiang Yan sensed that an Archon had died, he was too lazy to check.

But Jiang Yan knew clearly about the death of King Deshret.

Because the moment the forbidden knowledge appeared, a sense of palpitation rose in Jiang Yan's heart.

When he activated the Dual Star state and rushed over, this golden kingdom had already been destroyed.

That was also the first time Jiang Yan came into contact with the so-called...

Forbidden knowledge!!

How should one put it.

It should belong to some kind of special energy.

Because Jiang Yan saw small arrows in this pitch-black, unknown thing.

The small arrows of Vector Manipulation could only work on things related to energy, which was one of the reasons Jiang Yan believed this was some kind of special energy.

Jiang Yan joined forces with Greater Lord Rukkhadevata to clear the forbidden knowledge, which was also one of the reasons why Sumeru was able to quickly establish diplomatic relations with Liyue just like Mondstadt when it was first founded.

Port Ormos.

"What a prosperous nation of martial might!"

The first Grand Sage couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the huge warship slowly sailing in front of him.

"Are you the Grand Sage of the Sumeru Akademiya?"

Jiang Yan stood on the deck and asked the person in front of him.

It wasn't that Jiang Yan knew the Grand Sage, because in Sumeru, besides Greater Lord Rukkhadevata as the god, only the Grand Sage of the Akademiya, who held the same position as him, would be qualified to welcome him, the Grand Superintendent of Liyue.

"I have met the Tianshu of Liyue; I am the Grand Sage of the Akademiya."

The Grand Sage bowed to Jiang Yan; as the Grand Sage of the nation of wisdom, he had naturally studied some of Liyue's etiquette carefully.

The Grand Sage at this time was not the troublesome Grand Sage of Nahida's period; the first Grand Sage made Jiang Yan feel comfortable in terms of tone, etiquette, and form.

"I have heard of the Grand Sage's virtuous name back in Liyue; seeing you today, you are truly extraordinary."

Jiang Yan jumped off the ship, bowed to the Grand Sage as well, and said with a smile.

"Haha, thank you for the compliment, Tianshu. When it comes to managing the country and governing the nation, I still have much to learn from you."

The two highest national administrators under the Seven Archons each wagged their fox tails and complimented each other.

After complimenting each other, under the guidance of the Grand Sage, Jiang Yan and his entourage came to Sumeru City.

And the Liyue Navy was docked at Port Ormos to rest; Jiang Yan had arranged other tasks for them.

In a while, they would have to return to Liyue Harbor to hand over the flying ships he had drawn previously and the specialties brought back from Inazuma to Guizhong and the others to handle.

After all, although he was visiting the seven nations, the affairs of the Liyue Air Force could not be delayed.

Arriving at Sumeru City, Jiang Yan naturally saw Greater Lord Rukkhadevata, who was busy.

Because the death of King Deshret caused the desert region to be in a masterless state.

As the Dendro Archon of Sumeru, this desert naturally belonged to Greater Lord Rukkhadevata's rule.

Whether it was the handling of the problems of the original desert residents or the issue of trade between the rainforest and the desert people, Greater Lord Rukkhadevata was kept busy.

Even the Grand Sage who went to receive Jiang Yan was someone Greater Lord Rukkhadevata had gritted her teeth to pull from the Akademiya to receive him.

After all, as the Grand Sage of Sumeru, he was equivalent to sharing the government affairs of managing the country with Greater Lord Rukkhadevata; with him pulled away, all the pressure fell on Greater Lord Rukkhadevata.

"You've come."

Greater Lord Rukkhadevata said with a smile after seeing Jiang Yan.

During the Battle of Jueyun Karst, they met for the first time.

When dealing with the forbidden knowledge left behind after King Deshret's death, they handled it together.

So Jiang Yan and Greater Lord Rukkhadevata could already be considered fairly close friends.

"Hmm, what's wrong, still getting a headache because of the problems left behind by King Deshret?"

Jiang Yan walked forward and came to Greater Lord Rukkhadevata's side.

And the Grand Sage, after bringing Jiang Yan to Greater Lord Rukkhadevata, turned to handle his own government affairs.

There were too many government affairs waiting for him to handle.

"Yes, that guy Al-Ahmar, he acted too impulsively."

Even now, whenever she thought of King Deshret, Greater Lord Rukkhadevata was still very angry.

"Sigh, just handle it slowly."

"It's not like there's no time left."

Jiang Yan found a spot and sat opposite Greater Lord Rukkhadevata.

"So, this time you represent Liyue to visit Sumeru, what exactly do you want to do?"

Greater Lord Rukkhadevata rolled her eyes as she looked at Jiang Yan, who acted as if it wasn't his own business and he didn't have a headache.

"Don't tell me you came here just to see me."

"Hehe, why not? We are friends!"

Jiang Yan laughed and didn't express his purpose first.

"As friends, it's very normal to come and see you, right?"

Jiang Yan rested his arms on the table and said with a laugh.

"Don't say that, I don't believe it."

Greater Lord Rukkhadevata's mouth curled up slightly, but she quickly restrained it.

"Are you going to say it or not? If you don't, just wait to go communicate with the Grand Sage."

"Don't, don't, don't!"

Hearing Greater Lord Rukkhadevata's words, Jiang Yan said quickly.

Talk to that fox, the Grand Sage?

He didn't want to!

After all, that old fox, the Grand Sage, was not easy to fool.

"Well, there is indeed something this time."

Jiang Yan looked at Greater Lord Rukkhadevata.

"I want Mora to flow into Sumeru and be used as the mainstream currency."

Greater Lord Rukkhadevata narrowed her eyes slightly, then said with a light laugh:

"You have big plans, Tianshu of Liyue."

As the God of Wisdom, she understood what this guy was planning the moment he said these words.

"I'm not planning anything, what bad intentions could a small Tianshu like me have?"

Seeing that Greater Lord Rukkhadevata had even changed how she addressed him, Jiang Yan revealed a pure and harmless smile.
