Chapter 436

~7 min read 1,309 words

This thing is a pancake?

If she wasn't mistaken, was that a butterfly?

Since when could butterflies be wrapped in pancakes?

"Uh..."

Stelle looked at the pancake, her expression also strange. Was Liyue's food this weird?

However, the smell seemed very fragrant.

"I possess a Pyro Vision, and the Pyro Vision is a great help to me, so I can make it very quickly."

Hearing March 7th's words, Xiangling introduced it enthusiastically: "Look, look, inside this thin layer of egg skin is wrapped red squirrel ham, orange carrots, yellow sun-frog meat, green calla lilies, and blue butterfly wings."

March 7th: "........."

Stelle: "......."

Welt: "......."

Is Liyue's pancake like this?

Why does it feel different from the pancakes they know?

"Really, it's very delicious, I'm not lying to you."

Seeing March 7th and the others deep in thought, Xiangling said hurriedly: "It's really delicious, I've eaten it."

"Then, I'll try it."

Hearing Xiangling's words, March 7th was silent for a moment, then nodded gently.

Since Xiangling said so, she would try it.

Anyway, it really smelled fragrant.

Thinking of this, March 7th carefully took a small piece and tasted it.

"Mm, the taste is really not bad."

When this piece of pancake entered her mouth, March 7th's eyes suddenly lit up.

The taste was okay.

Without the slightest hesitation, March 7th immediately picked up a large piece and started eating.

"As long as March likes it."

Seeing March 7th's actions, Xiangling smiled immediately.

Seeing March 7th willing to eat it, Xiangling felt a great sense of psychological satisfaction.

Another person who liked her food.

And beside her, Stelle watched this scene, her expression somewhat suspicious.

Is it really that delicious?

Watching March 7th eat with gusto, Stelle also tried tasting it and found that the taste was indeed not bad.

Immediately, she also called Welt to eat.

"Aren't you eating?"

Seeing Xiangling not eating and just watching them, March 7th said hurriedly: "Sit down and eat with us."

"I've already eaten, I'm not very hungry."

Xiangling said with a smile: "I really like making food for others to eat..."

"So that's how it is."

Hearing Xiangling's words, March 7th realized.

Then, thinking of her own thoughts, she asked curiously: "Xiangling, can I ask you a question?"

"Sure."

Xiangling nodded: "What do you want to ask? As long as I know, I will definitely tell you."

"It's just that we just arrived in Liyue and aren't too familiar with it, so we want to learn about Liyue."

March 7th thought for a moment and said: "By the way, we want to learn about the Geo Archon here."

"To be precise, Liyue's history."

Stelle said: "We just arrived and aren't very clear about this place. Listening to the storyteller, we were a bit confused."

"Oh, oh, so that's it."

Hearing Stelle's words, Xiangling realized.

Then she nodded and said: "Then you really asked the right person. Only the locals of Liyue know these things. Many people in Liyue are from out of town; they only know this is a city of contracts, and you don't need to worry about fraud when doing business here."

"Liyue was created by the Geo Archon. I don't know the details too well, but I know some general deeds."

"Mm-hmm."

Hearing Xiangling's words, March 7th's eyes lit up, and she and Stelle looked at Xiangling expectantly.

"As far as I know, the construction of Liyue was created by the Geo Archon after defeating a group of gods to protect humanity."

"After the Geo Archon created Liyue, he also created Mora to be used as the currency for the people of Liyue, and later promoted it to the entire continent. The currency for trade in the seven nations is Mora."

"Then, to ensure fairness among humans, contracts appeared. Liyue is filled with contracts. You should know this, so I won't say much more."

"Mm-hmm."

Hearing Xiangling's words, March 7th nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

And Xiangling scratched her head and continued: "Actually, you came late. In the past, Liyue would have a Rite of Descension every year, and during the Rite of Descension, there would be a chance to see the Geo Archon."

"Usually, the Geo Archon would also walk through Liyue in disguise, experiencing everything in the human world and tasting Liyue's delicacies."

"Chihu Rock is often visited by the Geo Archon."

"But since a year ago, the Geo Archon suddenly passed away."

Speaking of this, Xiangling sighed: "At the Rite of Descension, the Liyue Qixing reported Liyue's development to the Geo Archon as usual, but the Geo Archon suddenly fell. At the time, the Liyue Qixing said the Geo Archon was assassinated, but the Geo Archon is a god, how could that be?"

"Later, after a series of investigations, it was discovered that the Geo Archon failed his Tribulation and passed away."

"At the time, because of the Geo Archon's departure, the adepti from Jueyun Karst came to hold them accountable. Fortunately, the Conqueror of Demons appeared in the end and stopped the angry adepti."

"It's about the same as what we understood before."

Hearing Xiangling's words, March 7th was thoughtful: "You just said that the adepti of Jueyun Karst still exist, and did the Geo Archon really live for thousands of years?"

"Of course."

Xiangling nodded: "The Geo Archon lived for a very long time. It is said that in the past, Liyue was not where we live now. Our ancestors lived over in Guili Plains, but it was too dangerous at the time. It seems there was some Archon War, many gods were born, destroying everything."

"To protect humanity, the Geo Archon fought many gods and finally brought humans to Mt. Tianheng."

"It is said that Liyue Harbor was not peaceful at the time either. There were sea monsters causing trouble, and gods existed. The Geo Archon solved that god too."

"Guyun Stone Forest is the trace left behind by the battle during the ancient Archon era. Guyun Stone Forest is better viewed from afar, not suitable for stepping into."

"He actually lived for thousands of years."

Once again getting confirmation from Xiangling, March 7th and Stelle looked at each other.

Lin Mo is too exaggerated.

He actually lived for so long.

"What is a god?"

Beside her, Welt pondered: "Can you tell us about gods?"

"A god is a god."

Xiangling scratched her head and said: "They are very terrifying existences. Any god can destroy the world."

"A year ago, the Vortex God appeared and almost destroyed all of Liyue. Fortunately, the adepti of Jueyun Karst, the Traveler, and the Liyue Qixing all took action together to barely hold it off."

"But speaking of gods, when you walk in Liyue, be careful of the evil remnants of gods."

Speaking of this, Xiangling paused and said: "On the land of Liyue, because many gods' corpses are buried, it is said that gods cannot be killed and will one day be resurrected."

"After a god dies and is buried in the earth, it will cause the god's residue to have an evil aura. These auras will make humans fall into madness, eventually losing their sanity, which is very terrifying."

"The evil aura will turn some creatures in the wild into monsters, attacking people everywhere, and will also give birth to evil spirits, which is very terrifying and dangerous."

"This residue aura cannot be cleared. Even if it is destroyed, it seems to be treating the symptoms but not the root cause, so you should leave immediately if you encounter places with evil auras in the wild in the future."

"So that's how it is."

Hearing Xiangling's words, March 7th looked surprised.

Regarding gods, they really hadn't found out about this just now.

The information about gods and adepti that Xiangling mentioned let March 7th, Stelle, Welt, and the others understand some things.
