Original God, I, the prince of Liyue, do not want to inherit the throne

The warm sun rose from the east, bringing vitality to Liyue. The green leaves of the new spring were circling on the branches, swaying in the spring breeze. At this time, Ye Li, who was sitting at the stone table in Aozang Mountain, looked at his father Morax with a puzzled look and said:

"Dad, if you let me go to Xumi to study and exchange ideas in a week, what about the Demon God War here? Without me here to refine pills and repair magic tools, it will be difficult to maintain supplies for more than half a month."

Morax calmly picked up the teacup, took a sip of the tea in the cup, and explained to his son's puzzled expression:

"When we were exchanging materials with the Tree King before, she mentioned the issue of technical exchange between the two sides. I thought that our mechanical skills were pretty good, and you were the only one who could come up with innovative ideas, so we signed this contract."

As Morax spoke, he immediately produced a contract made of silk out of thin air. On it were clearly written the names of the Great Compassion Tree King Buyer and Morax, with a line of small print below.

[All academic exchange meetings have candidates from both sides. Once the candidates are confirmed, they must stay in their respective cities for three months. Those who violate the rules will be punished with a three-month nightmare.]

When Ye Li saw it, he exclaimed, Wow! The contract has been signed. If he doesn't go, he will have to shatter the nightmare of the Great Mercy Tree King for three months. Wouldn't that expose one of his trump cards?

Seeing Ye Li's helpless expression, Morax put down the teacup and slowly said:

"You don't have to worry about the battlefield. The current productivity is enough to support three months. Besides, other immortals can also spend a lot of time to refine the elixirs you improved, but their efficiency is a little slower than yours."

Ye Li expressed his understanding of his father Morax's words of comfort.

However, Ye Li had learned a lot about those guys' methods of refining pills in the previous exchange meeting. The pill formula he modified also improved some efficiency, but there was still a big gap compared to his own.

Ye Li was thinking about whether there was any way that he could go to Xumi to learn technical exchanges while also being able to make pills and repair magical instruments at the same time.

Morax, who was just drinking tea quietly, looked at his child who was deep in thought and did not disturb him. He just looked in the direction of Xumi, thinking about the recent series of raids.

When the Starfish Demon and the Cotton Demon launched a surprise attack, he happened to go to the border of Xumi and Liyue to make a deal with the Great Compassion Tree King. At that time, the Great Compassion Tree King told him something with a frown.

"Recently, when I was visiting other people's dreams, I found something amiss. The same scene appeared in their dreams. I wanted to investigate, but that guy was very cunning and had already left when I found out."

Morax knew that the matter was far from as simple as the Great Compassion Tree King said so seriously when she spoke of this situation. Morax also guessed who the guy behind the scenes was.

"Dream Demon, what plan are you thinking of?"

Morax was thinking, while Ye Li, who was sitting opposite the stone table, had his eyes lit up, as if he had thought of a good idea.

Morax's thoughts were interrupted. He looked at his son from the side, who looked like he had everything under control. He couldn't help but become a little interested and asked:

"Kid, it looks like you've come up with a solution."

Facing Morax's interested gaze, Ye Li raised the corners of his mouth and clapped his hands confidently:

"Dad, my method not only keeps the progress of refining pills and repairing magic tools unchanged, but also confuses the enemies outside. I can also go to Xumi for academic exchanges without any worries. It's a three-pronged approach."

Morax looked at his son's excitement with great interest. He also wanted to know what magical power this child of his had, who was born after his head was hit by a meteor. He asked:

"Then let me see your method, kid."

Seeing that Morax wanted to see his method, Ye Li did not hesitate at all, but gave him a reminder before taking action:

"Dad, this method of mine may consume a lot of my own strength and have some impact on my body and mind, but it's not a big problem. I will be fine after a month or so of rest."

As Ye Li spoke, he pulled out a hair casually, then spat out a drop of crystal clear blood from his mouth and stuck to the hair.

Soon, Morax, who was sitting at the stone table, noticed that the aura and elemental power in Ye Li's body were constantly decreasing, and the free elemental power around him was also gathering towards that hair.

When only 10% of the elemental power was left in Ye Li's body, the immortal power also began to merge into that strand of hair.

This series of operations also made the hair shine brightly. The dazzling golden light flashed out as if it was about to break through the sky, making Morax's expression become very serious.

As the light faded, another person with the same aura and appearance as Ye Li appeared in front of the two.

A hint of surprise flashed in Morax's eyes, and then he understood why Ye Li's method was said to kill three birds with one stone.

"A clone? It's really a method of drinking poison to quench thirst."

Morax gave his evaluation, then looked at the somewhat weak original body Ye Li and said with a smile:

"Use a drop of your own blood essence to strengthen the effect of the clone, giving it nearly 50% of the original body's strength. Doing so will not only allow you to stick to the refining of magic tools and elixirs, but you won't have to worry about the output. However, it's better for you to use this spell less, as it will hinder your own accumulation."

Facing Morax's relieved yet worried words, Ye Li smiled and thought to himself that although this clone only had half of his own power, it was enough to refine pills and repair magical tools.

What's more, he can also customize pills to treat himself. It will take less than two days for him to fully recover, just like no one else.

At this time, Ye Li's clone also opened his eyes, looked at the somewhat weak original body in front of him, and said reluctantly:

"You are so carefree studying and communicating, leaving me, your clone, to do the hard work. You are such a jerk, original body."

Facing the reluctant and teasing words of the clone, Ye Li's pale face was completely unmoved, as if the clone in front of him was not himself.

"Don't be so mad at me, you bastard. I am you and you are me. Don't we know what we are thinking?"

The clone Ye Li showed an unwilling expression and lay directly on the ground, as if to say, "Do whatever you want, I won't do it anyway."

Ye Li took one look and instantly knew what his clone was trying to do. He immediately said with a dark face:

"As an avatar, you should be aware of this."

The clone Ye Li looked up at the sky unmoved, and said in a lazy and lazily tone:

"Anyway, I can only last for three months. If you want me to do such hard work, how can you, as the main body, not give me some sweet treats?"

When Ye Li heard this, he immediately understood that this clone was trying to raise the price. He was so angry that he wanted to get rid of this clone, but then he looked at his own depleted elemental power and immediately said with a look that said, "You are waiting for me, kid."

"Okay, you want some sweetness, right? Take these talismans. They'll be enough to keep you going for half a year, as long as you don't cause any trouble during that time. If I find out that you've made some noise, I'll remove you directly."

Seeing the original body giving in, the clone Ye Li stood up in an instant, snatched the talisman paper with extremely fast hand speed, and said with a playful smile:

"Well, original body, I know you are a very generous person. As an avatar, how can I ignore your work? Don't worry, I will take care of everything, whether it's refining pills or repairing magic tools. Just go to Xumi and learn the techniques peacefully."

Seeing the ulterior motive of Ye Li, a cunning look flashed in Ye Li's eyes, and then he patted Ye Li's shoulder with a serious expression and said:

"Everything here is up to you, my clone!"

"Don't worry, Main Body, I will take care of the arrangements here."

At this time, Morax, who was sitting at the table, watched the outrageous interaction between Ye Li and his clone. The corners of his mouth rose slightly unconsciously, and there was tenderness in his eyes. Then he raised his hand and drank the last bit of tea in the cup.
