My abode! My abode!

"This young friend Mo Wang has already agreed to hire you, Hall Master, to join us for 100,000 Mora."

Upon seeing Hu Tao walk in, Zhong Zhongli, who had just been looking complicated, instantly became calm and composed.

It was as if nothing had happened.

"One hundred thousand Mora?! Mr. Zhongli, you are truly amazing!"

Zhongli had just finished speaking when Hu Tao ran over.

"I thought this blond guy would only offer 50,000 Mora at most, but I didn't expect you to be able to negotiate 100,000!"

"Are you a genius at business negotiations? Otherwise, how about we entrust you with negotiating the business of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor from now on?"

When Hu Tao spoke to Zhongli with an excited expression, the eyes of everyone present were quite strange.

Is it possible that Zhongli just sold you out for 100,000 Mora?

But you weren't angry at all, and even thought it was a lot.

And what's with sending Zhongli to discuss business? Is this guy serious?

Zhongli Zhongli's usual values, I'm afraid that in a few days, the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor will be eating dirt.

Zhongli was speechless at this moment.

Why is this happening?

The previous generations of the Hu family were all fairly reliable people, so why did Hu Tao become so eccentric?

Could it be that the Hu family switched the babies?

"Hey! Mo Wang, when are you planning to go beat up those Adepti?"

"I've never seen Adepti get beaten up before. By the way, are you really capable of defeating him?"

At this moment, Jian Zhongli talking, and Hu Tao was now pestering Mo Wang again.

This left Mo Wang speechless.

No, you're supposed to be a proper Liyue person, right? How come it seems like you have absolutely no respect for these Adepti?

Oh right, in fact, that's really Hu Tao's personality.

Let's set aside the reasons related to Hu Tao's personality.

That's just based on their identity.

The status of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor is far more important to high-level Adepti than that of ordinary Adepti.

Mo Wang discovered that the identities of the women in Liyue were increasingly outrageous.

Most of the girls are either in high positions or have some kind of connection with Adepti.

Especially Xiangling, who has a Archon by her side.

Neither of them are easy to mess with.

"Don't worry, we'll go today! It's not even noon yet."

"Let's grab a bite to eat and then go for a walk to digest. I'll try to finish before dinner so we can have something delicious when we get back."

Although Hu Tao is a troublemaker, unfortunately, Mo Wang is even more so.

Mo Wang has already solved the route planning problem.

In just one day, they managed to "invite" all these Adepti to Liyue Harbor.

Then we would finish work and rest in the evening.

"All done in one day?!"

"What? You think it's too slow? If you hurry up and run, three to five hours isn't a problem."

"Isn't this a bit too fast? You're probably just bragging."

"Believe it or not! I'll show you how to chop up these guys and cook their flesh into a hot pot!"

Zhongli was Mo Wang at this point.

You defeated all the Adepti in a day or two. Are you here for tourism or just doing daily tasks?

Do you think your crew is just like the Hillichurl grow up on the roadside?

At this moment, Mo Wang, who had just said he wanted to cook a hot pot with Adepti, suddenly paused.

Under Zhongli's strange gaze, Mo Wang ran up to him and quietly asked, "Hey, Old Zhong, can he eat the flesh of these Adepti under your command?"

Zhongli was stunned.

Is it safe to eat the flesh of Adepti?

You're really planning to eat this?!

"Do you want to eat?"

Zhongli looked at Mo Wang with an extremely strange expression, and his right hand began to exert slight force.

At this moment, he really wanted to smash Mo Wang's head in.

"Haha, look at what you're saying. What was it again? When I was on an adventure, I stumbled upon a few great recipes, but I haven't been able to find the right ingredients to experiment with them."

"You see, when you fight later, there might be some bumps and bruises, right? Losing a few pieces of flesh is perfectly reasonable, isn't it?"

"The flesh of Adepti is a treasure, isn't it? It wouldn't be good if it got smashed on the flowers and plants. I'd rather use it to make hot pot."

Zhongli fell silent.

So that's what you're planning?

He suddenly remembered that this blond guy had been eyeing his dragon body before, and even wanted to ask him if he could eat it.

Is the flesh of this Adepti edible?

That's definitely possible.

It's the kind that's extremely precious.

But most people wouldn't think of using the flesh of Adepti to make dishes!

Even the Archon in the Archon War never did anything like this!

"That's good. Hehehe, at least we have meat and vegetables for the hot pot now. I just wonder if there are any other side dishes or anything."

"I remember there was a Mushroom God among the Archon... but that guy isn't in Liyue right now."

"As for salt, it seems that the Salt Archon has quite a lot left. I just wonder if using salt from his body would taste better."

"It's a pity that among these Kamisato, there isn't a Cabbage Archon, a Potato Archon, or a Wood Ear Archon?"

Listening to Mo Wang's rambling, everyone present was completely baffled by him.

So you're not only going to mess with the Adepti, but you're not even going to spare the Archon?

Is it really necessary to be this awesome?

Mo Wang didn't care about the strange looks from those around him at this moment.

Right now, he was thinking that among the Five Yakshas, Grandma Ping was in human form and couldn't be eaten.

The same goes for the xiao; it doesn't look like something you can eat.

Ganyu is indeed a crane, but given that the other party is Ganyu and Shenhe's master, and her true form is also a beautiful woman, he will not cut off her flesh.

However, the deer and the bird that follow are another story.

I just don't know if those two guys combined are enough to eat.

If a hot pot is made with ingredients of this quality, it should at least be at least a gold-grade dish, right?

At this moment, the two Adepti that Mo Wang was thinking about suddenly woke up from their meditation.

The two men, who had lived for Millennium, suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

Although I don't know exactly what happened.

But their intuition told them that they were about to be in big trouble.

Chapter 365: My Cave Dwelling! My Cave Dwelling!

Half an hour later, Mo Wang and the others were already on their way to Jueyun Karst.

"I never imagined that the Adepti of Liyue would live in a place like this. I've heard that there are quite a few Adepti here?"

"But why does this place feel so desolate? Are there really Adepti here?"

Upon arriving at Jueyun Karst, Paimon and Mimi began to curiously look around.

Before coming here, everyone boasted that there were many Adepti in this place, which made Paimon think that there Adepti everywhere in this place.

But once inside, they found that the place was all cliffs and precipices, and there was no sign of any Adepti.

"Isn't that obvious? Saying there are many Adepti here is probably just a lie to fool children."

At this moment, Hu Tao was walking at the front. After hearing Paimon's words, she couldn't help but chuckle.

"I've often heard that there are many Adepti here, and every year many people come here to explore and search for Adepti."

"But in reality, very few people actually found the Adepti and became their disciples; instead, there were quite a few idiots who were scared out of their wits."

"If there were really as many Adepti as the rumors suggest, Liyue would have been in chaos long ago."

As she spoke, Hu Tao lightly hopped to Mo Wang's side and said, "To be honest, if Mr. Zhongli hadn't said that Adepti could be found here, I would have thought there was really nothing here."

Mo Wang listened to Hu Tao's words and glanced at Zhongli beside him.

Paimon, the tour guide, is unreliable these days. It's time to hear what Tour Guide Zhong has to say.

"Ahem, Director Hu, you may not know this, but those rumors are not entirely unfounded. In fact, this place is indeed, as the rumors say, the place where Adepti reside and cultivate diligently after signing a contract with the Emperor."

"However, since the founding of Liyue, wars and Calamity have been constant, and coupled with its own Erosion, the number of Adepti is no longer what it used to be."

"The vast majority of Adepti have passed away, and now only a few Adepti remain here."

"Oh, I see." After listening to Zhongli's words, Paimon roughly understood that the Adepti had almost all died.

"But now that you mention it, there seem to be quite a few Adepti? I thought Liyue only had the Five Yakshas."

At this moment, Paimon suddenly had some doubts and looked at Zhongli to ask.

"The Five Yakshas does not actually refer to five Adepti."

"This name was established after Liyue Harbor was founded."

"Generally speaking, Adepti who are not human are mostly Five Yakshas. However, there are very few Five Yakshas left now."

At this point, Zhongli fell silent.

A hint of nostalgia and sadness began to appear in his eyes.

However, no one noticed Zhongli's unusual expression at this moment, while Mo Wang suddenly remembered that there seemed to be such a setting.

Let me briefly explain the detailed setting of the "Three-Eyed Five-Manifestation" in the Genshin Impact universe. The "Adepti" of Liyue are also known as the "Five Yakshas," and they are all non-human beings.

This setting originates from the saying that "anyone with seven (nine) orifices can attain enlightenment," meaning that animals can also become immortals; and humans, in Teyvat, those who can manipulate elemental forces should be called Genshin Impact —therefore, the only special beings that are different from humans are non-humans and can be called "Celestials" in Liyue.

However, by the time Mo Wang realized this, he already felt he had lost out.

"Good heavens! There are so many Five Yakshas!"

"Then why does Ningguang only require me to find four?"

"Doesn't that make it seem like I'm losing money?"

Thinking of this, Mo Wang even wished he could run to Liyue Harbor right now to question Ningguang —did you look down on the other Adepti and simply not invite them over?

However, it is clear that Mo Wang has misunderstood Ningguang.

In fact, apart from the well-known Five Yakshas, Ningguang had no idea where the other Adepti were.

And some of the Adepti I know... well, calling them Adepti is a bit odd.
