"Alright, I know."

Hearing this, Bai Lu nodded: "I'll go over right now."

"Lin Mo, you stay and rest for a while."

Nodding, Bai Lu hurriedly gave Lin Mo an instruction and left in a hurry.

After Bai Lu left, that maid did not leave; instead, she came to Lin Mo and said respectfully: "Hello, Mr. Lin Mo, our Alchemy Commission's Chief Alchemist would like to invite you to take a trip."

"Uh, I don't have time right now."

Hearing this, Lin Mo's eyelids twitched, and he said in a deep voice: "I need to go to the Exalted Sanctum right now."

What kind of joke was this? Go see Dan Shu of the Alchemy Commission? Was he crazy?

Speaking of which, why would that woman be looking for him?

He didn't know her at all.

Could it be when he passed by earlier?

Thinking of the scene when he passed by Dan Shu earlier when leaving the Alchemy Commission, Lin Mo's eyelids twitched.

Saying this, Lin Mo left first.

"Alright, then we'll wait for next time."

And the maid, hearing Lin Mo's words, was not angry in the slightest; instead, she nodded and watched Lin Mo leave.

"I can't come to the Alchemy Commission for a short time."

Lin Mo thought this while walking toward the outside of the Alchemy Commission.

Dan Shu, the Chief Alchemist of the Alchemy Commission, actually invited him.

A typical case of a weasel paying a New Year's call to a chicken; it's not well-intentioned.

Especially with the Glazed Lilies currently spreading in the Alchemy Commission.

This feeling made Lin Mo feel very bad.

After leaving the Alchemy Commission, Lin Mo returned to the star-skiff boarding area, took a star-skiff, and headed toward the domain where the Central Starskiff Haven was located.

Because his influence points were sufficient now, he could go directly to check the panel of the Lord Ravager Phantylia, if he could encounter Phantylia.

Besides the power of the Vidyadhara High Elder, Lin Mo also wanted to copy Phantylia's constitution and turn his own constitution into that of a heliobus.

As long as he possessed the constitution of a heliobus, he would strengthen himself once again.

While Lin Mo was thinking this.

On the other side.

Teyvat.

Aboard the Jade Chamber.

After the remains of the Vortex God Osial were sealed by the Adepti of Jueyun Karst.

The Liyue Qixing and others also stood in the ruined Liyue Harbor.

The former prosperity of Liyue Harbor now appeared fragmented under the impact of the tsunami.

Even though the Adepti had extinguished the tsunami, there were still aftershocks and the pressure of the god sweeping through, resulting in a mess.

The humid sea breeze carried a salty and bitter taste, and what was left after the waves receded was a ruin.

The wooden piers of the harbor had been impacted until only broken piles remained, like orphans abandoned by the ocean, standing desolate in the waves.

Boxes that once contained silk and spices were now scattered everywhere, and precious goods were scattered like sand, ruthlessly swallowed by the seawater.

The neatly arranged cargo boxes were now like they had been overturned by a huge invisible palm, scattered everywhere.

Broken wood, torn canvas, and various goods were mixed together; some were half-submerged in water, while others were stranded on the broken pier.

Along the harbor, cracks spread like crawling snakes, and every crack told of the disaster that had just occurred.

Broken ship hulls floated scattered, like remains after being bitten by a giant beast, and scattered wooden boards and torn canvas drifted with the waves on the sea.

Some were scattered on the shore, and some ship hulls were hit until only the skeletons remained, leaning pitifully against the pier.

And some were washed far away from the positions where they should have been docked, like wild birds that had lost their homes.

After the seawater receded, it left behind a mess, and the ropes and anchors originally used to fix the ships were useless at this moment; they were entangled together like a silent tragedy.

Some damaged fishing nets were intertwined with seaweed, the fishermen's tools were scattered everywhere, and some unknown objects were sinking in the mud.

On the ground, the devastated stone road showed cracks, as if this land was also crying, mourning this sudden disaster.

One Millelith soldier after another was clearing the debris in an orderly manner, trying to clean up the mess.

"This time, I must thank the Adepti."

Looking at this scene, Ningguang, having finished the arrangements, looked at the Adepti like Cloud Retainer and thanked them earnestly: "If it weren't for you all being here, the future of Liyue Harbor would truly be hard to foresee."

"Hmph, why bother taking the opportunity to flatter?"

Hearing Ningguang's words, Cloud Retainer snorted coldly: "And even if we hadn't come, Liyue could have survived this difficulty, but we were not here by 'coincidence'—have you forgotten our intention so soon?"

"We are also clear about the intention of the Adepti; we cannot give you the Exuvia of the Archon."

Ningguang shook her head gently: "We can sit down calmly and communicate now, talk; I suppose the Adepti are also in a calm state now."

Hearing Ningguang's words, the eyelids of Cloud Retainer and other Adepti twitched.

They thought of the mysterious young man on the Jade Chamber who had created the golden giant; that pressure was still terrifying to recall even now.

This was also why Cloud Retainer and other Adepti did not ask again.

But the next second, Cloud Retainer's tone remained unchanged, and she continued to snort coldly: "Hmph, then I'd like to hear what you want to communicate."

"It's very simple, and that is that the Archon Morax was not assassinated."

Ningguang spoke softly, organizing the remarks Lin Mo had previously made to Keqing, and which Keqing had then made to her, and stated them.

At this time, whether it was Cloud Retainer and other Adepti, or the Conqueror of Demons Xiao, they were all here.

When hearing Ningguang's words, all the Adepti fell silent.

"Not bad; thinking about it carefully now, it is indeed impossible for the Archon to have anything happen to him."

A full while passed before Cloud Retainer slowly said: "Even if something happened to the Archon, it would be impossible for it to be silent."

With an existence like Morax, if a battle really occurred, the fluctuations would have long since allowed them to perceive it.

"Liyue is ultimately a nation of humans."

Mountain Shaper said softly: "The nation of 'contracts' is still grateful to the Adepti. But for so many years, the problems of Liyue, big and small, have not necessarily relied on the power of the Adepti to be solved."

"The 'contract between God and Liyue' has been over a thousand years; now it is the era of the 'contract between Liyue and humans'."

"Forget it, it's better to return, return."

Saying this, Mountain Shaper flapped his wings and stood up, spreading his wings to fly high.

"Since the Archon has made such a choice, we will naturally follow the Archon's footsteps."

Moon Carver said slowly: "But if I have time, I will still come to patrol Liyue."

"I have the answer I wanted, so it's time to leave."

Cloud Retainer also stood up.

Finally, the three Adepti left Liyue Harbor under the gaze of Ningguang, Keqing, Paimon, and Lumine.

"I should go too."

Seeing this, Xiao also spoke softly, and as his voice fell, he turned into a gust of wind and dissipated.

"The Adepti have all left."

Seeing this scene, Paimon said in surprise: "I thought they would continue to hold us accountable; I didn't expect them to not even doubt this statement."

"A large part of it is Lin Mo's credit."

Hearing Paimon's words, Ningguang smiled and said: "What I just communicated with the Adepti is also what Lin Mo said to Keqing."

For this matter, Ningguang had already decided to thank Lin Mo properly.

If it weren't for Lin Mo, the disaster Liyue faced today would have been too great.

"So that's how it is."

Hearing Ningguang's words, Paimon and Lumine immediately looked enlightened.

"Lin Mo is still amazing; he knows so much, understands so much, and is so powerful."

Paimon rubbed her hands excitedly: "If only Lin Mo could travel with us."

While the few were communicating.

Aboard the Jade Chamber.

In Lin Mo's room.

Collei pushed open the door and found that Lin Mo was not there, and immediately scratched her head.

Brother Lin Mo was actually not there; this was far beyond Collei's expectations. ===== CHAPTER 502 =====
