Chapter 98

"Oh, I should have known better than to come; looks like you're already finished here?"

A lightly teasing voice came from behind Morax; Morax turned around and saw Jiang Yan standing on the shaft of the Geo spear Morax had thrown, smiling at him.

"Why have you come?"

Morax looked at Jiang Yan and smiled.

"Just wanted to observe the posture of a big shot, but I arrived and found it already over."

Jiang Yan shrugged, expressionless.

"You guys fought way too fast."

Morax glanced sideways at Jiang Yan.

"Too fast? We fought for three full days and three full nights."

Jiang Yan clicked his tongue.

"No choice; who knew I'd been asleep for three days."

"If you were worried, just say so; don't talk about observing a big shot's posture..."

Morax said calmly.

"Oh, oh, oh~ Why is someone getting narcissistic while talking? Who was worried about you?"

Jiang Yan pouted.

Morax chuckled softly.

"But... this war, we won a great victory..."

"Didn't we?"

Jiang Yan gazed at the setting sun about to descend in the sky and suddenly felt a pang of emotion.

"Yes, this time we..."

"Won a great victory!"

Morax stood beside him and said.

The setting sun cast its final afterglow upon the two, stretching their shadows infinitely long.

Guili Plains

With Morax's return, news spread across the Liyue lands that the Geo Archon had subdued the three top-tier Archons at Yunlai Sea.

The people belonging to Morax's camp shouted the title of the Geo Archon one after another.

And with the great victory and return of Ruotuo, the outcome of the great matter at Guili Plains was settled.

Upon this Liyue land, the territory controlled by Guili Plains could already be called hegemon-level.

Except for scattered Archon tribes and the Chenyu Vale region, Morax could be said to have already controlled most of the Liyue territory in the game.

"Hey, Jiang Yan! Don't sit there; hurry up and come help!"

Cloud Retainer, holding a pile of documents as high as a mountain, spoke to Jiang Yan who was gnawing on a Sunsettia nearby.

"No!!"

"Let me go, Sister Cloud Retainer."

Seeing these damn documents now made Jiang Yan's head ache.

These past few days, Cloud Retainer, Lady Guizhong, and other female immortals were nearly driven mad by these mountain-like documents.

The suddenly expanded territory, whether garrisoning troops, settling the people, or farming and other livelihood issues, came rushing in.

Little Ganyu was snatched away by Cloud Retainer, Morax was forcibly dragged and pinned to a seat to process documents, and even Ruotuo had to learn local governance with Whistling Sky Guide.

Jiang Yan wanted to escape, but Cloud Retainer blocked the door.

Helpless, Jiang Yan could only try to avoid them.

Honestly, if you let Jiang Yan fight an Archon, he wouldn't fear it at all.

But let him process documents?

Hah, one or two might work, but those things piled up are taller than me; let me process them?

You might as well let the documents process me.

"Less nonsense! Come with me!"

Cloud Retainer would not waste words with him; as her good son-in-law, how could she not come to help?

Jiang Yan felt like crying but had no tears; he tried to resist, but faced with Cloud Retainer's stubborn attitude.

He could only helplessly comply.

After a whole day, Jiang Yan's thought was that life was meaningless.

Damn it, how did Little Ganyu manage to serve as secretary in Liyue and process all the documents?!

Jiang Yan processed for a whole day and had only finished half.

If only someone could help him do these things...

Wait!

Someone could help him process these things?

Jiang Yan's eyes lit up, then he sat in the chair and began to think.

Previously, due to public security issues, Jiang Yan selected and organized the Millelith Guard from the common people.

Now, under the maintenance of the Millelith Guard, whether at Guili Plains or Qingce Village, effective governance had been achieved.

As everyone knows, the Geo Archon established the Liyue Qixing and the Eight Gates to govern the Liyue lands only after ascending to the position of one of the Seven Sovereigns.

Now, most of the Liyue lands have fallen into Morax's hands.

Then why can't I make the Liyue Qixing and the Eight Gates appear early!

This would both promote human talent and make myself and the immortals less tired.

Killing two birds with one stone!

Brilliant!

I should have thought of this sooner!

No wonder it's me! Hahaha!

Jiang Yan grinned, already imagining his glorious future of slacking off!

As he pondered how to carry out this plan, Jiang Yan stood up and stepped outside.

Since he needed to promote human talent, Jiang Yan decided to observe the common people firsthand.
