Chapter 227: Liyue Sword Forging Post, a Reluctant Farewell

"Jiang Yi, are you coming out of the meditation room?" Barbara walked out of Mond Cathedral and looked at Jiang Yi who was wandering at the door.

"Yes!" Jiang Yi looked at the girl with joy.

His slovenly image due to long-term seclusion was washed clean by energy and dusted by true qi when he was integrating the alchemical formula.

Now, he looks full of energy, with black hair like clouds, a hat tied with a straw rope, and he looks as leisurely as a Taoist priest.

Dressed in a blue shirt and with eyes like stars, he has an extraordinary temperament that is detached from the world and independent, blessed by the friendly and gentle breeze of the space.

It is full of vitality and its back is as straight as a green pine.

A hint of sword intent was drawn on the eyebrows, showing a dazzling edge.

"He has become stronger and more confident!" Barbara stared at Jiang Yi.

Although Jiang Yi did not encounter any accidents during this retreat, he did not run out of the meditation room covered in blood for her to treat him.

But she clearly felt that the other party was doing something dangerous.

The retreat lasted nearly two months at a time, and the nuns were amazed by her resilience.

"Would you like to take a walk together?" A water element bubble was born between Barbara's fingers and flew into the sky.

"Let's take a walk!" The two walked down the cathedral side by side, listening to the bards telling legends and myths in the Statue Square.

No one spoke, they just walked.

Walk to the stone fence of the square, look at the slowly turning windmill in the central city, look at the pedestrians coming and going on the road, and look at the more lively Central Avenue in the downtown area in the distance.

"The wind is free, and those who are blessed by the wind god are also free!" Barbara's golden hair fluttered slightly in the wind.

"Captain Qin, I have something to ask you during your retreat! Liyue has already replied to what you want."

"On the journey ahead... let me pray for your safety under the cathedral and under the watchful eyes of the wind god!"

Jiang Yi felt the wind of Mondstadt, his complicated thoughts turned into sighs and determination.

"The west wind is everlasting. Mondstadt is where the wind starts and where it will return!"

For some people, traveling across Teyvat is so far away that they may never meet again in their lifetime, but for some people, it is so close that they can visit Mondstadt in the morning and stay in Xumi in the evening.

Jiang Yi can't do it now, but he will achieve it in the future.

Watching quietly, feeling the wind, Barbara hummed a new song softly.

This song reminded Jiang Yi of his and Barbara's practice together.

He waved and headed to the headquarters of the Knights of Favonius.

"Captain Qin!" Jiang Yi pushed open the door of the office and looked at the blond knight who was always busy among the piles of documents.

“Swordmaster of the West Wind!” Qin raised her head and took a look at Jiang Yi’s outfit. “It seems that you are ready to travel to Liyue! I once heard you say that Liyue is very similar to your hometown. I hope you will have a good experience when you go there!”

"This is the sword-forging sticker that Qixing Ningguang got from the Liyue sword-forging family. It will unconditionally forge a four-star quality treasure for the holder."

Jiang Yi took the sword sticker with a red background and gold edges, ink writing, and the name "Hanfeng Ironware" with iron painting and silver hooks.

“It’s very much in Liyue’s style, just like in the martial arts novels they published, where they do things with a sense of chivalry and heroism.” He half-jokingly said.

"Many of Liyue's customs are indeed different from Mondstadt!" Captain Jean nodded.

"Then... I won't bother Captain Qin anymore!" Jiang Yi looked at the amount of documents on the other party's desk today and saw that he was going to work overtime again, so he turned and left.

"Noelle!" He saw the maid with short silver-gray hair.

"Jiang Yi!" Noelle looked at the young man whose temperament was changing day by day and gave her a sense of strangeness.

"Have you decided? After forging the sword, will you come back?" She asked the question in her heart, wanting an answer.

"I will come back!" Jiang Yi didn't dare to guarantee the time, but he did what he said.

"I also want to celebrate Mondstadt's festival and see the legendary Grand Master of Mondstadt's legend!"

"That's good!" Noelle put down the broom. "I made some snacks. Let's go eat together!"

Jiang Yi gladly accepted the invitation.

Wait until night when Amber comes back.

"Jiang Yi is leaving, should we hold a farewell party?" The carefree Amber didn't care at all.

Isn't it the adventurous spirit that everyone should have to venture out? If she hadn't wanted to be a scout knight, she would have followed Jiang Yi to Liyue to take a look.

"No need for the party!" Jiang Yi refused. "I've been in Mondstadt for so long. Thank you for your care! In two days, I'll give you a gift as a brief farewell!"

"Gift? That's a deal! I'm looking forward to it!" Amber said while hugging Count Rabbit.

Count Rabbit looked at Jiang Yi and asked, "I wonder if this lord has any?"

Jiang Yi had dinner with them and walked towards the alchemy workshop of the Knights of Favonius.

"The instrument that detects space fluctuations has sounded the alarm several times. If it weren't for me, the Knights of Favonius would be very busy this afternoon!" Albedo put down his research in the laboratory and looked at Jiang Yi.

"You really exceeded my expectations. You succeeded so quickly!"

For alchemists, a few months are nothing. Most of the research is measured in years, and those involving spatial power can drag on for more than ten years or even decades.

"Can you show me?" Albedo subconsciously sketched Jiang Yi and observed his body posture.

The space dissolved, Jiang Yi disappeared, and reappeared from the other end of the laboratory.

"The beauty of escape is beyond expectations!" Albedo ignored the instrument that was beeping again.

"I'm not doubting your intelligence, but whether you can really see the essence of the energy array diagram on your own? Have you understood the most basic structure?"

"I found a formation diagram that can be reconstructed on my own body and can produce the same effect on the Beast Realm Hound."

"Can you now create a sweet flower or a windmill daisy from the ashes?"

Jiang Yi suddenly felt embarrassed.

The birth of flowers and plants from ashes is equivalent to creating a life in a culture tank.

His low-level understanding was only focused on the "dissolving space" formation diagram, and he was unable to understand the sweet flower and create the sweet flower using the alchemical formula.

"I borrowed a little bit of other people's wisdom! I saw the essence of the formation diagram and replaced the alchemy formula structure inside."

Albedo was not surprised when he heard this: "This is also your hard work. Not everyone can borrow the wisdom of others."

"However, you are definitely not someone who is suitable for the traditional method of cultivating alchemical knowledge step by step!"

"Are you ready to leave?"

When Jiang Yi heard this question, he felt as if everyone knew that he was leaving.

Moreover, the more I hear the word "left", the weirder it sounds!

"I'm going to Liyue!" Jiang Yi corrected, "I will be back!"

"No difference!" Albedo casually took out ten books from the drawer, "I'll give you a few of Sucrose's textbooks from three years ago!"

"Your foundation is a little crooked! You're like a cripple whose one leg is a hundred times longer than the other."

The enthusiasm beneath Albedo's cold appearance is to give people a few more sets of Alchemy review questions.

"Thank you!" Jiang Yi took it and felt deeply moved.

This was the first time in his life that he thanked the teacher who assigned him homework.

He walked out of Albedo's Alchemy Workshop, feeling the night breeze, spread his wings of wind, went to the downtown area to buy some items, and then went to Lisa's Alchemy Workshop.

Spend two days giving a gift to everyone you know.
