Genshin Impact: Demon God of Shura

While Lantian and Morax were exchanging words, a large crowd had already gathered around the Tianli Bank, all curious about what their gods were doing.

But Gui Zhong, who had just finished setting up the bank's internal facilities, smiled slightly upon seeing this and kept everyone in suspense:

"You'll see when you come tomorrow. Everyone has to come; it's a decision made jointly by the three of us gods."

After saying this, Gui Zhong smiled and left, leaving behind a group of people looking at each other with curiosity and doubt.

What no one knew was that Gui Zhong, who had just left, was also filled with doubt:

"What are Blue Sky and Morax up to? They haven't given us any hints. It's driving me crazy."

Not long after Gui Zhong left, Lan Tian and Morax walked out of the bank side by side, and were immediately surrounded by the crowd.

Looking at the chattering crowd around him, Lan Tian chuckled and said:

"Please be patient, everyone. All doubts will be resolved tomorrow. You only need to come tomorrow morning."

Lan Tian's words immediately silenced the crowd, and then Lan Tian and Morax left the scene as everyone watched them go.

the next morning.

As soon as Tianli Bank opened for business, a large crowd of people who heard the news flocked to the bank, instantly surrounding it completely.

Because they all wanted to know what kind of organization Tianli Bank was.

Despite being taken aback by the large crowd, the staff of Tianli Bank quickly regained their composure thanks to their professionalism and began explaining and introducing Tianli Bank to the people in front of them.

After a detailed explanation from the staff, everyone gradually understood the positioning of Tianli Bank.

It turns out that the Emperor and the God of War found their barter system too cumbersome and inconvenient, so after discussing it for a day, they decided to open a special Tianli Bank and issue a universal currency called Mora to replace the barter system.

People also learned how to obtain Mora as a result.

"To acquire Mora, simply exchange it for any surplus grain you have. And the grain you use for exchange can be retrieved from the Tianli Bank's warehouse at any time in case of an emergency."

The staff explained it this way, based on the explanation provided by Lantian.

"So this is the goodwill of our own deity. We will definitely give it our full support. The Emperor and the others must have their own reasons for doing this."

......

In just a few days, currencies like the Mora quickly became popular in Guishuli.

"Hey bro, is that three mora? Okay, here's fifteen mora for you, and five potato pancakes too."

"Okay, ma'am, here you go, five potato pancakes in total."

"Having Mora has indeed made things much more convenient, thanks to the Emperor and the God of War."

"Yes, the bank teller said that the name 'Mora' comes from the Emperor's divine name, and that Mora was forged by the Emperor and the God of War using their own power, which means..."

"No one can replicate Mora!"

……

"Isn't that wonderful?"

Looking up, I saw Lantian, Morax, and Guizhong sitting on the edge of a house with their feet dangling in the air.

Those were the words spoken by Lan Tian.

"To see our people living in such peace and contentment, our feelings at this moment are even greater than those of slaying a powerful invading demon god."

Morax said with a rare smile.

"Blue Sky and Morax both told me that you two secretly did something big behind my back. I only found out about the role of Tianli Bank now, and you didn't even tell me beforehand."

After finishing speaking, Gui Zhong put on a resentful look, pouted, and glared angrily at Lan Tian and Morax.

"Cough cough..."

"Uh... well..."

Lan Tian and Morax felt a little uncomfortable under Gui Zhong's resentful gaze. Morax couldn't help but lower his head and cough a few times to cover his embarrassment.

Lan Tian used this to hide the corners of her mouth that she couldn't suppress, mainly because Gui Zhong's current appearance was too unfair, super cute!

[If Fukaros looked at me like that too… cough cough, no, no… it’s too early to think about that!]

Lan Tian shook his head slightly, casting those strange thoughts into the distance. However, Lan Tian soon noticed a sly look on Gui Zhong's face.

So you were faking it all along, Gui Zhong? Then don't blame me for retaliating!

"I'm sorry, Gui Zhong, Morax and I were having a great conversation and I didn't think of you for a moment. But then again, I remember you weren't in your room at that time... umm!"

Before Lan Tian could finish speaking, Gui Zhong, like a cat with its fur standing on end, exclaimed in surprise, jumped up with a flushed face, and covered Lan Tian's mouth with both hands, over Morax.

"Blue Sky, don't tell anyone!"

Morax was caught off guard by Gui Zhong's sudden action. When he came to his senses and turned around, he saw Gui Zhong covering Lan Tian's mouth with both hands, his face flushed. Lan Tian was also pressed to the ground by the force of Gui Zhong's hands, and could only make muffled sounds. However, the smile in the corner of his eyes could not be hidden.

"Old friend, Miss Guizhong, what brings you here?"

Morax asked, puzzled.

"Ah...it's okay...it's okay."

"Phew! Phew! I'm suffocating! In the end, you're trying to murder your little brother Lantian! A joke can provoke you like this."

Upon hearing Morax's voice, Gui Zhong and Lan Tian stood up simultaneously. Gui Zhong stood to the side, somewhat flustered and incoherent, clearly feeling ashamed of her earlier lapse in composure.

Seeing this, Lan Tian could only pat his chest and pretend to calm himself down while trying to help Gui Zhong out of the predicament, even though the demon god's body wouldn't suffocate from it.

"It's nothing, Morax. It was just a joke between Gui Zhong and me. Don't worry about it."

Upon hearing this, Morax stopped thinking about it and turned to look at the setting sun.

After adjusting their state, Lantian and Guizhong sat on either side of Morax, enjoying the afterglow of the sunset together.

After watching for a while, Lan Tian couldn't help but recite a poem:

"The setting sun hangs far in the sky, and the cold waves flow on the clear water."

Morax and Guizhong immediately turned their gazes upon hearing this.

"Wow! Lantian, you can recite poetry too! That's amazing!"

Gui Zhong stared intently at the blue sky with shining eyes, as if he had discovered some new blueprints for mechanical devices.

"A fine poem, old friend. It perfectly captures the scene at this moment."

Morax commented.

"You flatter me, Morax."

Lan Tian said modestly, then changed the subject:

"Gui Zhong, I know you're amazed by my poetry, but you don't have to look at me with such a blatant gaze, do you? It's creepy."

After saying that, Lan Tian pretended to be scared and hugged himself with his arms while trembling.

"No, am I that scary? Morax, why don't you help me judge this? Am I that frightening?"

Gui Zhongcheng was amused by Lan Tian's performance and then nudged Morax's shoulder to ask him a question.

"From a purely rational perspective, Miss Gui Zhong's beauty truly deserves the description of 'the moon hides its face and the flowers blush with shame'."

Morax, who had been suddenly dragged into the mess by Gui Zhong, forced a straight face and said in a serious tone.

"That's right, with my beauty I certainly deserve that word. Could you say a few more compliments?"

Gui Zhong's pretty face flushed slightly, and she stared excitedly at Morax's face with her bright blue eyes, as if she wanted to write "Praise me!" on her face.

"Ahem...this..."

Morax was visibly struggling to cope.

"Come on, the way you looked at me just now was more terrifying than any of the hideous monsters I've ever seen."

Lan Tian chuckled mischievously, while secretly preparing to run away at any moment.

"Blue Sky, don't run away! How dare you talk to someone like that!"

"Hahaha…"

Upon hearing this, Gui Zhong immediately bristled and leaped up, pouncing towards Lan Tian.

Lan Tian was prepared for this; he dodged it with a side roll and ran off in one direction in a flash.

Having missed his target, Gui Zhong got up and chased after Lan Tian's retreating figure, leaving Morax sitting there watching the two bicker and laughing.

And so, the people of Guixiuli were astonished to discover that above their heads, two figures were chasing the afterglow of the setting sun, leaping from house to house...
