Sensing Azhdaha's presence, Morax's heart sank, and he raced back to Liyue as fast as he could.
"Please, don't let anything else happen now..."
"Faster, even faster..."
Sonic booms rang out one after another as Morax tore through space.
Before long, a streak of golden light flashed over the Guili Plains, heading toward Mt. Tianheng.
"My lord! Here! Over here!!!!"
Seeing that Morax was about to fly past them, the Adepti and Yakshas on the Guili Plains hurriedly called out.
Morax faintly heard something. High in the sky, he turned to look and saw the Adepti and Yakshas waving at him, their faces beaming with joy.
Just as confusion began to set in, he spotted two familiar figures standing beside them.
Morax's pupils contracted sharply, and he froze in utter disbelief.
There stood Guizhong beside the Adepti, smiling as she waved to him.
In an instant, Morax vanished from the sky.
When he appeared again, he was already holding Guizhong tightly in his arms.
He held her so tightly, terrified that she would slip away from him again.
"There, there. It's all right now. I'm back," Guizhong said gently, patting Morax's back.
"Alive... you're still alive..." Morax held Guizhong, scarcely able to believe she was real.
"Yes, I'm alive. It's all right now. Everything's better." Guizhong continued to soothe him with a faint smile.
"I thought... I thought I'd never see you again..."
"Thank goodness. You're alive... you're alive..."
Morax wept with joy. Never in his wildest dreams had he imagined that Guizhong, who had died, would appear before him again.
He had no time to think about anything else now. All he wanted was to hold Guizhong, just like this.
Watching them, the Adepti and Yakshas all smiled with happiness.
They, too, had never expected Guizhong and Marchosius to
