the people of that nation should feel happy.】

【Zhongli: Generally speaking, that is indeed the case. Belobog on Jarilo-VI is an example.】

【Venti: Even though Mr. Luo Feng didn't put too much effort into developing Belobog,

because Jarilo-VI nominally belongs to Mr. Luo Feng, it has already received far too many benefits.】

【Yae Miko: Although it's a bit rude to the nation of the Dendro Archon to say this,

it's hard to imagine what that nation has that would be worth Mr. Luo Feng taking it over.】

【Rosaria: That's why I said Azar has gone mad.】

【Dori: I actually hope Mr. Luo Feng takes over this nation;

maybe then I'd be able to get my hands on more goods from outside the universe.】

【Nilou: But if that really happened, what would happen to Lesser Lord Kusanali?】

【Dori: I'm just saying; the probability of Mr. Luo Feng taking over this nation is too low.

Besides, if Mr. Luo Feng really intended to take over this nation, Lesser Lord Kusanali would probably agree to it anyway.】

【Venti: Mm-hmm, if Mr. Luo Feng were willing to take over Mondstadt, the Anemo Archon would probably agree too.】

【Jean:...】

"There's no need to talk to this guy anymore."

"Lesser Lord Kusanali, I request to execute him right now."

Cyno bowed to Nahida and said.

Nahida: "No need."

Cyno: "But..."

Nahida shook her head and raised her hand, condensing a burst of energy in her palm.

"Grand Sage Azar, I will execute you myself."

As the words fell, Nahida had already unleashed the energy from her palm, letting it land on Azar.

Facing Nahida's great power, Azar had no ability to resist.

In just a moment, his body was burned away by crystals and disappeared without a trace.

Seeing this scene through Paimon's perspective, most of the people of Sumeru immediately danced with excitement.

As for those scholars who had colluded with the Grand Sage, they fell to the ground in terror.

Even now, they couldn't understand why Nahida could be so resolute.

However, they understood one thing: this matter was not over.

The Grand Sage was dead; it was their turn next.

"Next, it should be my turn."

Seeing Grand Sage Azar die, the silent Scaramouche finally spoke.

But unlike Azar, who struggled quite uglily, Scaramouche had no emergency reaction.

His eyes were calm, as if he had already accepted his fate.

"You want to die, right?"

Nahida glanced at Scaramouche and asked.

Scaramouche: "..."

"Silence is consent."

"But you cannot die yet; there are some things I still need to ask you."

Nahida said.

Regarding Dottore and her own Gnosis, Nahida still needed to question Scaramouche.

Moreover, when she previously separated the Forbidden Knowledge from Scaramouche,

Nahida saw fragments of Scaramouche's past memories.

She learned that Scaramouche was a puppet created by Raiden Ei.

Regarding how to deal with Scaramouche, she also wanted to ask about the reaction from Inazuma.

"Cyno, take Scaramouche away and keep him under strict guard."

"Then take the other Matra to purge the Akademiya."

"Arrest all those who are guilty and wait for their trial."

"If anyone chooses to resist, use extraordinary measures."

After Nahida said a few words to Cyno, she looked at Paimon.

"I know everyone in the Akademiya is watching this."

"I hope those of you who are guilty will not resist the upcoming arrests."

"Not everyone needs to pay the extreme price that Azar did."

"After the trial, I will give a fair verdict."

"But if you choose to resist, perhaps you will have the same fate as Azar."

"Don't think about running away; I will be watching you."

Nahida said.

Hearing these words, some scholars who had already prepared to run away fell to the ground, crying and giving up on their escape.

Nahida had displayed the powerful strength to repel the Dendro Dragon;

with Nahida watching, they understood they couldn't possibly escape.

If they didn't run, they might still live.

But if they ran, it would be an additional crime, and they might really die.

Only those who knew their sins were deep chose to run as usual.

However, Cyno had made arrangements before coming to the Divine Construct Workshop;

as soon as someone intended to run, Matra immediately rushed over.

Cyno himself followed Nahida's orders, and after binding Scaramouche, led him toward the prison.

"Hmph, with this, the matter is finished, right?"

"It's a pity that Dottore guy got away."

"Little god, if there's nothing else, I'll be leaving first."

The Dendro Dragon looked down at Nahida and said.

"Since you're already here, why not witness the rebirth of this nation together?"

"And join the welcome ceremony for Mr. Luo Feng, Ms. Ruan Mei, and the others?"

Nahida looked at the Dendro Dragon with anticipation.

In her view, this was also a rare moment to repair her relationship with the Dendro Dragon.

The Dendro Dragon looked at Nahida deeply, then looked at Luo Feng, who was lost in thought nearby.

Finally, he nodded.

"Fine, I will stay here for a while."

"But I hope you don't misunderstand."

"I'm only doing this for Mr. Luo Feng's sake."

The Dendro Dragon said in a muffled voice.

Even so, Nahida smiled upon hearing these words.

She walked toward Luo Feng with a relaxed expression.

"Mr. Luo Feng, the matters of this nation have been resolved."

"With this, can we set up an Astral Express station in this nation now?"

Nahida asked.

"I didn't expect you to still be concerned about the Astral Express at a time like this."

"Very well, since you have become the leader of this nation."

"I can naturally hand the train over to you."

"Next, find a place to serve as the Astral Express station, Nahida."

Luo Feng smiled.

【Beidou: As expected, the route to the Herta Space Station was ultimately taken by Lesser Lord Kusanali.】
