Yuto looked at the two unremarkable jars of wine on the table, a bit surprised. The wine personally brewed by the Emperor to celebrate the founding of Liyue had been aged for over three thousand years. Such wine, if given to Barbatos, would surely make him ecstatic.
At this moment, Cloud Retainer eagerly volunteered, quickly answering, "Emperor, if that is the case, then I shall lead the Vigilant Yaksha and Shenhe to Mondstadt to visit the Anemo Archon."
Yuto immediately grew anxious and interjected, "True Lord, that's not appropriate. For such a small matter, I can handle it."
"What's inappropriate? Shenhe is my beloved disciple, and her affairs naturally require her master to step forward. I will always remember your kindness in discovering the truth behind Shenhe's problem, and I will repay you handsomely in the future."
"Young friend Yuto, it is indeed as Cloud Retainer says. Since I miscalculated the divination and caused Shenhe trouble, please allow us an opportunity to make amends. However, Cloud Retainer, I am also Shenhe's master, so why don't I go?"
Mountain Shaper said, "As if no one else is Shenhe's master. Don't argue, let me go."
Yuto watched as the three True Lords showed signs of bickering again and turned to look at the Emperor. After a moment of thought, the Emperor replied, "If it were only Shenhe, it would be fine for you to accompany and escort her. However, the Vigilant Yaksha will be going as well. Liyue's Adepti entering Mondstadt territory for personal matters to visit a nation's Archon could easily affect the diplomatic relations between the two nations. The nature of this matter has changed.
Since that is the case, it would be better to proceed with a formal, official process. Having an Adeptus serve as the chief envoy for diplomacy is both a sign of respect for the Anemo Archon and does not diminish Liyue's prestige.
As for who should be the chief envoy..."
Cloud Retainer was the first to speak, "Naturally, I should be chosen. I am widely known for my eloquence and skill in rhetoric, making me the prime candidate for chief envoy."
After Cloud Retainer finished speaking, the scene suddenly fell silent, and the atmosphere began to turn strange. Everyone's gaze towards Cloud Retainer became peculiar.
"What? Youngster? Are you unconvinced? Why are you looking at me like that?"
"No, no, this junior wouldn't dare."
Ultimately, it was the Emperor who made the decision, appointing Moon Carver to go, citing his steady and profound nature, which as chief envoy, would demonstrate Liyue's magnanimity as a great nation.
Though Cloud Retainer was very displeased, due to it being the Emperor's decision and out of respect for him, she could only give up, still complaining to Mountain Shaper, who was quite speechless.
Soon, the Emperor used a dream-weaving technique to inform the Liyue Qixing of the matter. The next morning, Tianquan Ningguang announced: By the Emperor's command, to establish deeper cooperative relations with the neighboring nation of Mondstadt, a diplomatic team will be formed to visit Mondstadt.
If it were just ordinary diplomatic envoys, it wouldn't cause much discussion among the people. But this time, the chief envoy was none other than the legendary, elusive Moon Carver, a famous Adeptus of Liyue. This greatly piqued the curiosity of Liyue's citizens, who speculated why this Adeptus would personally go to Mondstadt.
Not only were Liyue's citizens curious, but the Liyue Qixing were also speculating about the Emperor's intentions. As the Liyue Qixing, they knew more. Not only was Moon Carver going, but a Vigilant Yaksha was also hidden within the delegation. With one overt and one covert, two incredibly powerful Adepti going to Mondstadt, were they planning to make a move against Mondstadt?
Of course, another puzzled party was the Acting Grand Master of the Knights of Favonius, Jean. When she received this news, she was stunned and immediately summoned her subordinates to discuss the matter.
If they were normal Liyue envoys, Mondstadt would certainly welcome them warmly. But with Liyue's Adepti visiting, while they would still welcome them, whether it would be a warm welcome was hard to say. No one knew what their true intentions were.
Alas, Mondstadt now faced the ravages of Stormterror internally and the aggressive Fatui envoys. And now, a delegation led by Liyue's Adepti was coming to join the commotion. All these troubles were piling up, truly a headache.
The worries of these important figures no longer concerned Yuto. He had now returned to his identity as an herb gatherer. When there was work, he would go up the mountain with Qiqi to collect herbs. When there was no work, he would go to Narukami Ogosho's immortal abode to practice ninjutsu.
Oh, right. Narukami Ogosho's immortal abode had now been officially bestowed upon Yuto by the Emperor. The other three True Lords, to repay Yuto's kindness, personally repaired the mechanisms within the abode and also brought some simple furniture and decorations, making the cave barely qualify as a place to live.
Now, Yuto finally had a property of his own on the continent of Teyvat. In fact, at this point, he had completed the task given to him by the Revitalization System. However, Yuto was not in a hurry to submit it.
The reason was simple: there was still a long time until the task deadline, enough for him to strive for something better. Additionally, Narukami Ogosho's cave, in the system's judgment, was of very ordinary value.
Although an Adeptus's former cave sounds very high-end and classy, to put it bluntly, it's just an ordinary mountain cave. Moreover, this cave only seems valuable because of the name of Narukami Ogosho, the Adeptus. If you tell others it's Uchiha Yuto's cave, do you think it would still be valuable?
Furthermore, Narukami Ogosho had long since passed away, and very few people in Liyue Harbor still remembered this True Lord. The value of his cave was already negligible.
The value of a property is still reflected in demand. Only with demand comes value, and high demand leads to high value. When people scramble for it, you have the confidence to raise the price.
Like this cave, located on Mt. Tianheng, sparsely populated, and inconveniently located. Aside from its beautiful scenery, it can be said to have only disadvantages. Even if the Fatui bought it as a secret base, the price wouldn't be too high.
It was precisely for these reasons that Yuto chose not to submit the task prematurely. He could definitely wait longer. After all, if the system offers good things, one should definitely choose the best ones, as this greatly benefits his strength.
In the world of Naruto, ninja strength can be divided into Genin, Chunin, Special Jonin, Jonin, Elite Jonin, Kage-level, Super Kage-level, and the strongest Six Paths-level. This is a generally accepted view among all Naruto fans, so I won't elaborate.
Based on Yuto's self-assessment, when he first arrived in the allogene world, he was a very balanced Chunin. Now, it's just that his Sharingan has upgraded to three tomoe, barely qualifying him as a Special Jonin.
For lower-level ninja, assessing a ninja's strength usually requires considering all aspects: ninjutsu, taijutsu, and genjutsu. All three must reach the corresponding skill level to be promoted. If there's a specialization, then usually the proficient area must exceed two levels to be promoted.
Might Guy in Naruto is the most typical example. His ninjutsu and genjutsu abilities were almost zero, but his taijutsu was exceptional. Although he was only an Elite Jonin of Konoha, he almost single-handedly kicked a near-ending, severely injuring the Six Paths-level Uchiha Madara.
