Chapter 110

"Now, let us discuss the plan for repairing the Bishui Road."

Although Lin Mo was very curious and interested, the most important thing right now was to discuss the repair of the Bishui Road with Ganyu.

While Keqing and Ganyu sat down to discuss how to repair the Bishui Road,

on the other side,

Lin Mo, having left Yujing Terrace, followed the familiar streets and arrived at Wanmin Restaurant.

However, just as he reached the restaurant, he saw passersby discussing something animatedly.

"Have you heard? With the Lantern Rite approaching, the adepti of Liyue have arrived."

"Huh?"

Hearing this, someone looked surprised and skeptical: "Really? Aren't the adepti of Liyue reclusive in Jueyun Karst? A friend of mine even went to Jueyun Karst to seek them out today."

"Heh, the Lantern Rite is Liyue's biggest annual festival; the adepti who protect Liyue will surely come down from the mountains and enter the city."

"The adepti entering Liyue Harbor must be doing so quietly, using magic to disguise themselves. Perhaps someone passing by you right now is an adeptus."

"Heh heh, actually, there was a sign of the adepti at Liyue Harbor today too. Someone saw an adeptus from Jueyun Karst flying on a sword; it was truly incredible."

"Uh, are you talking about the miracle at the Sea of Clouds?"

"I even took a photo. Although it's just a back view, that adeptus was indeed sitting on a sword and flying. It was so incredibly dashing. My heavens, I want to apprentice under them."

"That must be the legendary Liyue Sword Immortal. It's strange, though; I've never heard of a Sword Immortal in Liyue."

"Uh, as far as I know, aren't Liyue's adepti not human?"

"........"

One after another, people discussed the Sword Immortal seen at the Sea of Clouds near Liyue Harbor today.

Some didn't believe it, but immediately someone pulled out a photo they had taken to prove it, sparking a series of gasps.

It was actually true.

Lin Mo: "........"

Hearing these words, Lin Mo felt incredibly strange.

Lin Mo truly hadn't expected that, even at night, he would be the subject of discussion among Liyue's residents because of his Sword Flight.

It seemed that the situation he had inadvertently caused was bringing him great benefits.

Thinking of this, Lin Mo looked at the virtual panel only he could see with satisfaction.

【Your "True Art of Sword Flight" has sparked discussion among others, gaining 2 points of influence.】

【Your "True Art of Sword Flight" has caused shock among others, gaining 5 points of influence.】

【Your "True Art of Sword Flight" has aroused curiosity among others, gaining 10 points of influence.】

One message after another refreshed, leaving Lin Mo looking very satisfied.

This wave of influence points was soaring again; it felt truly wonderful.

Lin Mo guessed that by the time this night was over, he would have gained quite a lot of influence points.

Today's actions had truly made Lin Mo feel great.

"Lin Mo, you're here."

As Lin Mo walked and thought, he soon arrived at Wanmin Restaurant.

Wanmin Restaurant wasn't too busy at the moment, and Chef Mao smiled and greeted Lin Mo when he arrived.

Lin Mo nodded: "Chef Mao, the usual."

"Coming right up."

Hearing Lin Mo, Chef Mao nodded with a smile, indicating he understood.

And so, after Lin Mo had eaten his fill at Wanmin Restaurant, he left and followed the street toward the city gates, heading to the area he was stationed to guard.

However, just as he arrived, he looked surprised.

Yelan was actually at his original post.

"You truly surprise me."

Looking at the returning Lin Mo, Yelan said with a light smile: "To think you possess the Art of Sword Flight. The Liyue Sword Immortal that everyone in Liyue Harbor is talking about today is actually you."

After finding out, she had been quite curious.

Because as far as she knew, there was no Sword Immortal in Liyue.

After looking into it and seeing the photos someone had taken, Yelan, who was familiar with Lin Mo, instantly recognized the back view as Lin Mo's.

In other words, the person flying on a sword over the Sea of Clouds today was actually Lin Mo.

This was truly surprising to Yelan.

Because yesterday, when they were capturing the Treasure Hoarders, Lin Mo hadn't displayed the Art of Sword Flight.

"I didn't expect Yelan-jie to be so concerned about me."

Hearing Yelan, Lin Mo sighed: "I also didn't expect that trying it out today would lead to being captured on camera and sparking such discussion."

Lin Mo truly hadn't anticipated this.

However, the current situation only had benefits and no drawbacks for him.

Because he hadn't been captured from the front.

On his virtual panel, information was still constantly appearing and flickering.

This only had benefits and no drawbacks for him.

"The Art of Sword Flight, a god-like skill; it sounds quite incredible."

Seeing that Lin Mo didn't deny it, Yelan sighed: "I'm becoming more and more interested in you."

As she spoke, Yelan reached out and tossed something to Lin Mo.

"Hmm?"

Casually catching what Yelan tossed, Lin Mo raised an eyebrow.

What Yelan had tossed to him was actually a shining pearl.

Lin Mo instantly recognized it as a Loach Pearl, which had miraculous medicinal effects.

This thing was a good item.

Regarding this item, Lin Mo knew that loaches ingest minerals and elements, condensing them into beads with faint magical power; in emergencies, they spit these beads out to distract predators to preserve their lives.

"It seems you recognize it."

Seeing Lin Mo recognize it, Yelan said slowly: "After careful polishing, the Loach Pearl can be used as earplugs; the soundproofing effect is quite good. Even if someone is wailing loudly in your ear, it won't disturb your beautiful dreams. Of course, I hope you won't need to use such things in the future."

"I accept the gift you've given me."

Hearing Yelan, Lin Mo nodded and accepted it quite readily.

Lin Mo had no reason to refuse a gift from Yelan.

"I like straightforward people. I thought you would be a bit more reserved."

Seeing Lin Mo accept it directly, Yelan looked surprised: "I thought you would refuse me for a moment."

"Why would I refuse?"

Lin Mo smiled and said: "After all, it's a gift from you. As far as I know, you don't usually give gifts to people."

He was quite familiar with Yelan.

As someone who always acted in the shadows, Yelan rarely found people she thought highly of.

"You are a good judge of character."

Yelan nodded.

Saying this, she sat down.

Seeing this, Lin Mo also sat down, and together with Yelan, they looked out at the distant Sea of Clouds, admiring the night view of Liyue.

"Is your Art of Sword Flight achieved through some magical treasure, or something else?"

Looking at the seated Lin Mo, Yelan asked casually: "I want to understand this situation, so I can be prepared for the future."

Yelan was still very curious and wanted to probe into Lin Mo's Art of Sword Flight.

The reason she was like this was because this Art of Sword Flight made Yelan sense something unusual.

Such an Art of Sword Flight had never appeared before; now that it had appeared, could others master it too?

"It is not a magical treasure."

Hearing Yelan, Lin Mo smiled faintly and said: "Currently, only I can do it. No one else will be able to, unless they are someone who can manipulate Anemo energy or use adeptal power."

Regarding Yelan's inquiry, Lin Mo felt there was nothing that couldn't be said.
