Chapter 452

"Such a coincidence?"

Seeing Keqing walking over, Lin Mo chuckled: "I just finished my afternoon nap and was about to go out."

"Didn't we agree this morning that when I was free, I would come to your residence in the afternoon and you would help me analyze today's situation?"

Keqing, who was walking over, heard Lin Mo's words and immediately rolled her beautiful eyes at him: "This is my second time coming. I came once before, but no one was there, so I thought I'd come later."

"So that's how it is."

Hearing Keqing's words and knowing she had already been there once, Lin Mo invited Keqing to sit down first.

"This matter is actually very easy to analyze."

After Keqing sat down, Lin Mo poured her a glass of water and said slowly: "I think you don't need to panic or be anxious. Haven't you noticed anything very unusual about this matter?"

After all, as the Liyue Qixing, this kind of action by Morax, if one really thinks about it carefully, is still problematic.

It's just that the answer is unknown.

"Hmm."

Hearing Lin Mo's words, Keqing nodded gently: "It's not just me; Ningguang also feels something is wrong, but she can't say exactly what is wrong. The current situation has indeed happened, especially since it was seen by many residents of Liyue."

Speaking of this, Keqing sighed: "This is a very tricky matter."

"Have you ever thought that Morax is trying to fake his death?"

Seeing Keqing sigh, Lin Mo chuckled: "Otherwise, how could he have fallen on the day of the Rite of Descension?"

"Looking at the present, Morax has lived for over six thousand years. Even before Liyue City was built, he experienced the ancient era of war between gods and demons, and the number of gods he killed is countless. Up until the current peaceful era, who among the current Seven Archons do you think could make Morax have an accident without a sound?"

· ····Seeking flowers····· ····

Hearing Lin Mo's words, Keqing was silent for a moment and shook her head gently: "No one."

Yes, the Lord Archon has lived for over six thousand years, experienced the ancient era, the era of gods and demons, and up until now, has been unscathed. How could he have an accident just like that?

"But."

Thinking of Lin Mo's words, Keqing frowned again: "If it's a fake death, then why? Isn't this doing something unnecessary? The Lord Archon doesn't need to fake his death."

Why would he suddenly fake his death for no reason?

"Is there a possibility that Morax wants to retire?"

Lin Mo chuckled: "Looking at him as a god, he personally created Liyue, protected Liyue, and guarded Liyue. Up until now, he has done enough."

"In recent years, although the Liyue Qixing's Rite of Descension has been held, has Morax responded very, very little?"

"Or rather, not as frequently as before?"

"This."

Hearing Lin Mo's words, Keqing's expression changed.

Retire?

She really hadn't thought about this.

But thinking about recent years, Keqing frowned and whispered: "However, the Lord Archon has indeed become less and less involved in recent years, and even delegated more power to us. Previously, we needed to report ten things, but later it was reduced to five, three, two, etc."

"The Lord Archon issued an oracle, constantly telling us to decide for ourselves, and some things don't need to be asked of him. Even in previous years, the Lord Archon's appearance was just a formality."

Recalling the Rite of Descension in recent years, Keqing found that it really seemed to be as Lin Mo said.

Could it be that the Lord Archon, in his old age, really wants to retire?

..... 0

"Teyvat is now roughly peaceful, not the ancient era of war between gods and demons."

Lin Mo said: "Even as a god, protecting the city he built with his own hands and his own people year after year, isn't Liyue a burden to Morax?"

"From the era of war to expanding territory and killing gods and demons that harmed Liyue, Morax has done enough."

"The current Liyue indeed does not need to rely on gods, which is why Morax set up the Qixing and the eight gates, constantly delegating power."

"This Rite of Descension is even more of an opportunity to let go."

"You can plan carefully and turn the Rite of Descension into a Rite of Parting."

"So, it's like this."

Hearing Lin Mo's words, Keqing's mind was filled with thoughts, and she found that what Lin Mo said made perfect sense.

Yes, with Morax's power, unless Morax set the trap himself, how could he suddenly fall from the sky?

"But, what about the Lord Archon's body?"

However, the next second, Keqing thought of something and frowned: "That dragon corpse is not fake, and it is exactly the same as the Lord Archon of the past."

"As a god, isn't it a very normal thing to create a similar body?"

Hearing Keqing's words, Lin Mo smiled gently and said: "The Exuvia is also a good thing. If it is used as an alchemical material or something, it must also be extraordinary."

Keqing: "......"

Hearing Lin Mo's words, Keqing was silent.

Using Morax's Exuvia as an alchemical material—this was something she didn't even dare to think about.

Isn't this too offensive?

"The Exuvia does not contain a Gnosis; this is another gift Morax bestowed upon Liyue."

Lin Mo spoke eloquently: "Whether it is used for collection in the treasury or for research, it must be extraordinary."

"I, understand."

Keqing let out a long sigh: "All of this is the Lord Archon's doing, and he even went as far as to let this happen at today's Rite of Descension."

"So now, we have to change the Rite of Descension into a Rite of Parting and properly send off the Geo Archon Morax."

Lin Mo said: "At the very least, finish this play of Morax's."

"I understand."

Hearing Lin Mo's words, Keqing nodded gently.

The parts that she and Ningguang couldn't figure out were completely figured out here with Lin Mo this afternoon.

All of this is Morax's doing.

This point can completely explain it.

She needs to go back and tell Ningguang and Ganyu about this.

"Thank you."

Keqing looked at Lin Mo seriously.

If it weren't for Lin Mo's analysis, she wouldn't know even now.

"A small matter."

Lin Mo shook his head. Even if he didn't say it, after it was over, Morax used the practical immortal art of dream-sending to convey the news that he was not dead to the adepti and the Qixing.

Hearing Lin Mo's words, Keqing raised her chin, her beautiful purple eyes filled with anticipation as she looked at Lin Mo.

"How about, a kiss?"

Looking at the expectant Keqing, Lin Mo hugged her gently, stroking her purple hair while saying softly.

"Hmm...."

Hearing Lin Mo's words, Keqing, who was expecting it, blushed and immediately responded in a low voice.

She naturally understood what Lin Mo meant by a kiss.

Not to mention that her hands were numb last time, her mouth was also kissed numb.
