Although Azhdaha had agreed not to do anything excessive to Liyue, for the current Azhdaha, making him understand what constitutes excessive and what doesn't was still a problem.
With Azhdaha's massive body, if he were to use his previous size, even the most ordinary actions like walking or simply rolling over in his sleep would bring unprecedented disaster to Liyue Harbor.
Therefore, under Yuto's earnest persuasion, Azhdaha reluctantly agreed to Yuto's training program, which primarily involved teaching Azhdaha what to do and what not to do within Liyue's borders.
First, the initial problem was Azhdaha's size.
Yuto actually knew that for a long-lived species like Azhdaha, changing forms was a trivial matter, but his dragon's dignity made him refuse to take on a human form, and he had a peculiar obsession with being larger than humans.
His reasoning was that he enjoyed being looked up to and was accustomed to looking down on others.
This led to Azhdaha's current appearance, like a smaller but much fatter Geovishap; although Yuto knew he could become even smaller, he couldn't be persuaded for the life of him.
Um, if I took a Geovishap for a walk in Liyue Harbor, would I be arrested by the Millelith? The people of Liyue should be very tolerant of talking beasts, like Cloud Retainer, Mountain Shaper, Moon Carver, Minghai, and Yixiao, all of whom are birds or deer.
If there was one more talking Geovishap, it should be very reasonable, right? Alright, I can't make this up anymore, yes, it definitely would happen! Yuto couldn't imagine that scene.
The second problem was Azhdaha's attitude towards humans. The Liyue people's excessive mining damaged the ley lines, and Azhdaha, being closely connected to the ley lines, suffered immensely. The most crucial part was that due to his contract with Morax, he couldn't attack those people, and after being tormented for over a thousand years, he lost his memory due to erode and completely went mad.
Furthermore, because of his massive body, humans were merely ants in his eyes. Do you pay attention to stepping on ants when you walk? You don't, and Azhdaha obviously wouldn't either.
Although his size had shrunk considerably now, human figures would no longer be overlooked by him, but expecting him to maintain a good attitude towards humans? Forget about it.
Yuto always felt a sense of déjà vu when teaching Azhdaha such things. Then, he clapped his head, 'Ah, this is exactly like when I trained Shenhe!' Does this mean he could use the same method to train Azhdaha?
If he still only had a three-tomoe Sharingan as before, Yuto wouldn't dare guarantee that his genjutsu would work on a God-level Azhdaha. But now, his Sharingan had already upgraded to the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, and his eye power was incomparable.
These eyes were powerful enough to control nine Tailed Beasts in an instant, and this genjutsu had another advantage: it primarily consumed eye power with very low Chakra consumption. This was also one of the ways he could currently fully utilize the advantages of the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan.
Thinking of this, Yuto's Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan instantly activated, staring intently at Azhdaha. Before Azhdaha could react to Yuto's sudden change in eyes, his dragon eyes transformed into the pattern of Yuto's Sharingan, his consciousness fell into a coma, and the entire dragon became dazed.
In the following period, Yuto's predictions indeed came true. In just one day within the illusion, Liyue Harbor was destroyed fifteen times due to various minor incidents, Wangsheng Inn was destroyed twenty-two times, six peaks in Jueyun Karst were broken by him, countless civilians were killed or injured, and the deep pit of The Chasm was refilled.
For a colossal dragon like Azhdaha, with high attack, high defense, high HP, and mastery over five elements, humans alone were completely unable to cope. Even if the Adepti intervened, without the Emperor's intervention, they would be utterly helpless.
After breaking free from the genjutsu, Azhdaha listened to Yuto's report of the conclusions and felt a bit embarrassed, but he still strongly insisted that his actions were not excessive, which angered Yuto, who directly threw him back into the Kamui Dimension for self-reflection.
It seems this task is still a long and arduous one; only time can slowly temper his disposition.
In the next few days, Yuto stayed at home, accompanying Azhdaha in practice, but with minimal results. His contempt and disregard for humans, and his disdain for human-made systems, made it extremely easy for tragedies to occur the moment he came into contact with people.
His situation was even more severe than Shenhe's at the time; Shenhe at least needed some negative emotions to lose control, but Azhdaha needed no reason to erupt.
This won't do, I need to change my approach. Yuto pondered for a moment and suddenly remembered a point he had previously overlooked: in the illusionary scenes he set up, he seemed to have deliberately avoided Morax.
Azhdaha's current mental state seems to be all because of him, right? How about adding Morax to the illusion and letting the two of them fight it out? And since it's an illusion, I can freely set Morax's strength. Maybe if Azhdaha gets to thoroughly beat up Morax, the misunderstanding will be resolved, and Azhdaha's anger will dissipate.
No sooner said than done, Yuto quickly set up a scene in the illusion where Azhdaha and Zhongli met. Good heavens, old enemies meeting made their eyes burn with hatred. Azhdaha directly declared: "Morax, it's time to settle everything."
It must be said that Azhdaha's resentment towards Morax was unusually deep. Even within the illusion, his real body in reality began to show reactions, with various elements in disarray, making it feel like the entire cave would be torn apart by violent elements in the next second.
Seeing the situation was not good, Yuto directly threw Azhdaha into the Kamui Dimension, where he could wreak havoc as much as he pleased.
The vibrations in the Kamui Dimension lasted for a full day before finally subsiding. When Yuto released Azhdaha, he could see a slight fatigue on his face, but more than that, there was excitement, a feeling of having avenged a great wrong.
"Hahaha, little human, your genjutsu is quite good! The feeling of stepping on Morax is truly satisfying. Once I've rested, give me another go tomorrow! I will tear Morax into ten thousand pieces!"
Then, the next day, Yuto increased Morax's strength. This time, Azhdaha was beaten so badly by Morax that his scalp tingled, and even one of his dragon horns was broken off.
After returning to reality, Azhdaha immediately gave Yuto a 'Mount Tai Press,' scolding Yuto for not playing fair, but his fighting spirit in his words had not diminished, nor had the fire in his eyes extinguished.
On the third day, Yuto adjusted Morax's strength to be evenly matched with Azhdaha. This battle lasted for three full days. When both sides were exhausted and scarred, Yuto, within the illusion, manipulated Morax and began a psychological attack.
