The original god of the Jyota Jinchūriki

Chapter 117 Ye Lan's Commission

"Jin boy, come closer and let me see Morax."

"Boss Ruota, please be rational. If you rush forward rashly in this situation, even I will be detained by the Qianyan Army."

"Reason? How can you let me do that?"

The roar of King Ruota kept echoing in Ruojin's head, but Ruojin knew that anger would not solve the problem in this situation, so he could only slowly guide King Ruota.

"Boss Ruo Tuo, the Emperor has passed away suddenly. There may be some conspiracy behind this."

"Conspiracy, no, kid Jin, you don't know Morax. Any conspiracy will be vulnerable in the face of absolute force. I think Morax's death is most likely caused by wear and tear."

Ruojin's words seemed to remind King Rodra, because apart from wear and tear, King Rodra did not believe that there would be other opponents on the continent of Teyvat who could kill Morax quietly in front of him, King Rodra.

Wear and tear, wear and tear again. The God of Wind was worn out to the point of becoming a drunkard. The Emperor was worn out to the point of passing away? Is wear and tear really that terrible?

Ruo Jin swallowed deeply. He used to think that wear and tear could only mean a change in temperament, but he didn't expect that the Emperor would be directly worn out. This gave him a deeper understanding of wear and tear.

"I should have thought of it earlier. The reason why Morax never came to find me is probably because he forgot about me due to wear and tear, just like me before."

"Now his death may be because he was worried that he would forget about Liyue after being worn out too much, which would be detrimental to Liyue. He took the initiative to end his own life when he was almost worn out. Morax, how could you be so stupid?"

Seeing his brother lying lifeless on the ground, King Rādhāra's brain started working rapidly. In just a few breaths, he figured out everything, and even figured out the reason why Morax did this.

Dragon tears flowed down the corners of Ruotu Dragon King's eyes. Ruotu Dragon King, who had never cried when he was beaten up by Morax, finally couldn't hold back his tears. He finally understood why he hadn't found Morax for so many years. It turned out that his good brother had been worn out beyond recognition.

After listening to the mumbling of the Dragon King Ruota, Ruojin felt a surge of sadness in his heart. Liyue was originally founded by Emperor Yanwang, but now the emperor gave up his life for Liyue. Ruojin admired this righteousness from the bottom of his heart, so Ruojin carefully put away the glowing pebble. He planned to place the pebble next to the emperor's immortal body at the ceremony of sending off the immortal, as a token of his love.

"Check everyone and detain anyone who looks suspicious."

"Don't let your guard down, stay safe, the murderer is likely hiding in the crowd."

The captain of the Qianyan Army who was in charge of the security of Yujingtai suppressed his shock and loudly reminded the Qianyan Army that now that the incident had happened, it would not be too late to regret it after the murderer was caught. This kind of thing happened in the area he was responsible for, and he could only pray that the murderer could be caught as soon as possible, otherwise he might not even be able to support the Qianyan Army.

After receiving the order, the Qianyan soldiers around immediately began to check everyone. Anyone who hesitated and couldn't explain clearly was detained. If the Qianyan soldiers on Yujingtai were not insufficient in number, the captain would have wanted to detain everyone on Yujingtai for interrogation.

Dolly in the crowd was shocked to see that her men were detained along with their cameras. Just now she was happy that she had taken a photo of the posthumous portrait of the God of Wealth, Emperor Yan, which would surely sell for a good price.

Before she could be happy for a few seconds, the portraits of the Rock King that she was going to sell at a high price were confiscated by the Thousand Rocks Army. Not only that, she might have to go to Demora to rescue her men. Well, this trip to invite the Immortal Ceremony was a big loss.

"Ruo Jin, what should we do? Ying and I only burned three incense sticks for the Emperor Yan Wang. We didn't do anything else."

Seeing that many people were detained, the panicked Paimon hid beside Ruojin and nervously looked at the Qianyan army that was approaching. She didn't realize that she had said everything she shouldn't have said.

"So the incense in the incense burner was made by you. Then I don't need to check."

When the Qianyan Army was questioning the others, Ying suddenly heard a female voice behind her. This made Ying's hair stand on end and she immediately opened her elemental vision. A figure covered with water elements appeared behind her at some point.

Ying drew out her edgeless sword in a flash and looked vigilantly at the figure behind her. She was able to approach her without her noticing. Her intuition told her that this person's strength should not be underestimated.

"Ye Lan, please stop scaring Ying." "Okay, I'll give Ruo Jin some face. This traveler from another world doesn't need to be so nervous. I have no ill intentions. I just want to entrust you with a task."

After a fluctuation of water elements, Ye Lan slowly appeared in front of Ying. Seeing that Ye Lan didn't even have a weapon in her hand and Ruo Jin seemed to know this woman, Ying also put away the sword without a blade, but there was still vigilance in his eyes. This woman didn't look like a good person. Especially when being stared at by this woman, Ying felt as if there were slimes crawling all over his body and he felt very uncomfortable.

"Tell me, what is the commission?"

Although this woman named Ye Lan doesn't look like a good person, life still has to go on. There's no harm in listening to the commission, and Ying just happens to be short of some Mora to buy weapons.

"It's not a difficult commission, actually. I just want you to be wanted by the Qianyan Army for a period of time."

???

A few question marks appeared on Ying's forehead. Are you okay? What kind of commission is this? She has been wanted in Mondstadt. She doesn't want to experience the excitement of hiding from place to place again.

"Don't be so quick to refuse. The Qianyan Army is only trying to put you on the wanted list for show. The real purpose is to lure out the Fatui executive officer and investigate the Fatui's purpose."

Is it just a pretense? Ye Lan's words made Ying hesitate. If it was just a pretense, maybe it was acceptable. It would be a big favor for Li Yue, and it would be easier for her to ask about her brother later.

"The commission fee is one million Mora."

"We've accepted this commission!"

Without thinking, Paimeng agreed on behalf of Ying, which stunned Ruojin on the side. Paimeng was hiding behind him like a coward just now, but after hearing about one million Mora, he was not afraid of Ye Lan anymore. He just came up to Ye Lan, patted his chest and accepted the offer.

Ying also held her forehead with her hand helplessly. Paimon, the little money-grubber, might have forgotten how scared she was when she was wanted in Mondstadt. At that time, she said that she never wanted to experience this kind of life again. But now, for one million Mora, she directly came up and asked to be wanted.

"I can accept this commission, but I am not familiar with Liyue. I am worried..."

"You don't have to worry about this. Ruojin will help you, right Ruojin? This is a good chance for you to repay the favor you owed me last time."

Ye Lan interrupted Ying before she could finish her words, because several Qianyan soldiers were approaching their location, and it would be bad if any mistakes were made any longer.

"I would have helped Ying even if you didn't ask for that favor. I can't just stand by and watch the Fatui cause trouble in Liyue."

Rolling his eyes at Ye Lan, Ruo Jin replied unhappily. Even though he knew Ye Lan said that on purpose, when communicating with a woman like Ye Lan who was very smart and good at intelligence, it was easy to fall into the trap of her language if one was not careful. Ruo Jin now strongly suspected that the favor he owed Ye Lan was also planned by Ye Lan.

"So, traveler, are you ready?"

"prepare for?"

Ying tilted her head in confusion. She didn't understand what Ye Lan meant yet. But when she saw Ye Lan fall to the ground with a backward jump and superb acting skills, Ying quickly understood Ye Lan's intention. He was going to throw dirty water on her directly, and he didn't even say a word before starting.

The fact was just as Ying guessed. Ye Lan, who was lying on the ground, quickly attracted the Qianyan Army. Seeing that the time was almost right, Ye Lan pointed at Ying and said.

"She was trying to escape in a panic just now. She might be the murderer who assassinated the Emperor!"
