"Alright… alright." Yu Jin was at a loss for words, not expecting Venti to be so unmotivated.
Morgott, who was standing nearby, heard Dvalin's complaints and glanced at Yu Jin, who remained oblivious.
He actually wanted to say that Yu Jin was also very similar to that "Wind God," always slacking off and not doing anything proper.
Fortunately, The Lands Between had many capable people, so he wasn't as busy as Dvalin, who was constantly swamped.
Zhongli looked at Dvalin's frantic complaining and immediately thought of Osial. Among the people in the Jade Chamber, it seemed he was the only one who had nothing to do.
"Osial, are you interested in settling down in Liyue?" Zhongli looked up at the enormous Osial beside him and invited him.
"Heh heh, what made you think I have a good impression of Liyue?" Osial sneered a few times. For Yu Jin's sake, he wouldn't think of doing anything to Liyue.
But to integrate into Liyue, as Zhongli suggested, Osial was still somewhat unable to accept it for now.
"Is that so…" Zhongli's expression stiffened, then he shook his head with some regret.
Zhongli was forced to participate in the Archon War, and he harbored no hatred towards his defeated opponents like Osial.
Unfortunately, Osial didn't think that way. He had a certain idea, and Zhongli understood. After all, he had sealed him at the bottom of the sea for over two thousand years, so it was normal for the resentment in his heart to be hard to dispel.
Now, Zhongli only hoped that Osial wouldn't harbor any hostility towards Liyue. Otherwise, even if Osial was much weaker, it would still take considerable effort to suppress him.
"Speaking of which, you're so kind to take me in, aren't you afraid…" Osial pointed his tail towards the Sky.
"Hmph…" Zhongli sighed, then smiled faintly, "I don't think there's any need to worry about that."
"Those people in the Sky are probably as good as half-dead."
"Who is so fierce?!" Osial cried out in surprise, but he quickly quieted down.
He was really making a fuss over nothing; wasn't there someone just as fierce right in front of him? Osial looked at Yu Jin, who was climbing onto Dvalin's back, feeling incredibly emotional.
How was this world becoming increasingly incomprehensible? As a God, why was he constantly being hit by one blow after another?
"Then, if you're not going to Liyue, where do you plan to go?" With so many people around, Zhongli didn't want to continue this topic.
"Dark Sea."
"Dark Sea?" Zhongli's brows furrowed. That kind of treacherous place, Osial must be quite something to even consider it.
"Osial, if you're too proud, I can designate a sea area in Liyue for you to reside in."
"Liyue is vast; even if you are a God, it can accommodate you."
Zhongli advised Osial. Regardless, Osial had contributed greatly to stopping Azhdaha. To make him hide away in such a desolate place, Zhongli felt it would be disrespectful.
"Did you forget something?" Osial's head turned to look into the distance, he said faintly.
Zhongli recalled his earlier words, finding no errors, so he shook his head and said, "You can state any requirements you have."
"Morax, did you forget that I have a wife?" Osial's five snake heads instantly became visibly excited.
What Liyue? Was it as important as a single hair from Beisht?
"Morax, although I am far inferior to you in terms of divine duties, in terms of life, you are destined to live a relatively failed life."
Finally, there was one area where he was stronger than Morax, so Osial decided to openly display his boastful heart to Morax.
Watching Osial constantly wriggle, Zhongli felt for the first time that this fellow was so annoying.
"Going to the Dark Sea?" Yu Jin's spirits lifted when he heard this. He tapped Dvalin's head from his back and said to him:
"Didn't I mention before that there's a kin of yours in the Dark Sea? Are you going or not?"
"Dark Sea?" Dvalin muttered a few times, feeling a bit apprehensive.
In Dvalin's impression, the Dark Sea was synonymous with evil, danger, and taboo.
"Have some confidence, will you?" Yu Jin felt a bit helpless seeing Dvalin's somewhat timid expression.
"You have me, you have Osial, and you have yourself. Oh, and Azhdaha over there, are you coming?" Yu Jin listed all the people who might go, and finally asked Azhdaha below.
"Me? I'll pass. It's more important for me to understand the current Liyue now that I've just awakened."
"As for kin… my lifespan is almost endless, so I have plenty of time in the future." Azhdaha shook his head, having little interest in other dragons.
Perhaps this was the difference in personality between dragons!
"Brother Yu Jin, are you going too?" Zhongli looked at Yu Jin, a little surprised.
"Just going to chat. Oh, Morgott, you don't need to come. You keep an eye on those two lads."
"They're quite capable, so don't let them slip away if you're not careful!"
Yu Jin glanced at Morgott, who was about to follow, and immediately interrupted his movement.
As he said, while the Harbingers were nothing to him, they were indeed a considerable nuisance to the Qixing and even the Adepti.
If they were to escape due to a moment of carelessness, it would be a huge loss.
Moreover, the Dark Sea was indeed not a good place. The elemental concentration there was too high, which would cause some DMG to Morgott.
Furthermore, Yu Jin was somewhat uncertain about the outcome of this trip.
Because he had thought of a very bad possibility.
Dvalin is a dragon, and a newly born one. Kutri is a primordial dragon, a primordial dragon who experienced the Primordial War.
When such an ancient dragon learns that the current Wind Dragon is a familiar of the Wind God and is protecting humans, he wonders what he will think.
Yu Jin could only hope that Kutri's temper wouldn't be too volatile. Judging from previous experiences, Kutri's temper should be good.
Rather, even if his temper was fiery before, it would have become stable after such a long period of erosion from the Abyss and the passage of time.
"Hmm." Morgott said nothing more, just nodded in agreement.
"Let's go! Dvalin!"
Yu Jin stood on Dvalin's head again, pointing into the distance.
"Just like that?" Osial asked in surprise.
"Nonsense, do you have anything to prepare?" Yu Jin looked at the bare Osial and retorted.
"No, I just like straightforward people like you!" Osial shook his head, then accompanied by tremors and laughter, Osial ran off into the distance.
And Yu Jin and Dvalin followed closely behind.
"This way."
"You're annoying, what does it matter to you how I go?"
"Are you asking for a beating? Do you believe I'll drag you across the ground and plow out a riverbed?"
"Alright, I didn't expect you could even fix rivers."
...Yu Jin and Osial's voices grew fainter and fainter. Their figures quickly disappeared between heaven and earth, leaving only the winding tracks where Osial had walked.
The brownish-Black Earth gave off an earthy smell, and the water systems, which had been chaotic due to Osial's movement, began to gather in this gully.
Looking at it, it wouldn't be long before a new great river appeared in Liyue.
"I didn't expect Senior to be so knowledgeable about water conservancy?" Lumine said in surprise, seeing the high puddles gradually dry up.
"Normal, the King knows many things."
"Leyndell's sewers were refurbished by him." Morgott's expression stiffened, as if recalling an unpleasant memory.
To say refurbished, it was actually because Yu Jin couldn't stand the maze-like layout of Leyndell's sewers, so he simply turned Leyndell's sewers upside down.
Anyway, at that time, there were only a few living people in the entire world, and the sewers were no longer useful.
"He did that too?" Now everyone present was shocked. Such a powerful person as Yu Jin actually condescended to fix sewers?
Unconsciously, everyone's admiration for Yu Jin grew a little more.
Morgott knew without thinking that they had misunderstood. However, he had no intention of correcting them, he just lightly tapped the floor with his Cursed Sword, and smiled helplessly:
"The King does everything."
Though what he did was never anything serious.
