King Ember's Journey to Tevat

Chapter 537 The incompatible Paimon and Ying

Countless branches stretched out from the main hall of the castle tower, and they tore apart all the nearby buildings to create space for their own growth.

The growth rate of new trees is astonishing, and their branches and leaves grow at a speed visible to the naked eye.

First there were green leaves, and then the green leaves quickly drooped and started to turn purple. Then, on the hanging petioles, blossoming cherry blossoms bloomed, completely becoming the protagonist.

In just a few breaths, the entire castle tower turned into a bright pink. Cherry blossoms rained down from the canopy of trees that had grown to the top of the palace, making it extremely beautiful.

"Oh my god... a big tree has grown in the castle tower?!" Paimon looked at the scene in front of him in astonishment, his mouth wide enough to fit a bird egg in.

"This... couldn't this be a dream?!" Ying naturally saw this scene, and the shock on her face was no less than Paimon's.

Surprised, Ying did not forget to tug on Paimon's cheek. After seeing the latter's expression as if he was about to bite, she was convinced that she was not in a dream.

"Why do I feel that this scene is a bit familiar?" Ying stretched out her hand, and the cherry blossoms drifted in the wind and had already reached her.

She looked up at the pink patch above her head, and she felt it was very familiar.

"Dragon's Back Snow Mountain?" Paimon also reacted. They had seen an even more amazing scene than this scene.

Although the sacred cherry tree is very big, it is still slightly "petite" compared to the golden tree.

Ying and Paimon looked at each other, and then they suddenly realized.

"That's it!"×2
"It seems that Ember guy is really good at making big moves!" Paimon said with great emotion as he looked at the huge cherry tree.

"The movement is indeed huge, but the people below...why didn't they react?" Ying nodded in agreement, then turned to Paimeng and asked.

Logically speaking, if such an abnormality suddenly appeared in the castle tower, the entire Inazuma Castle should have started to become restless at this moment.

But let alone Inazuma Castle, even Washizu, Dankiroku, and Yae Shenzi, the three closest to the mutation, only had shock on their faces at first.

Now, the atmosphere between the three of them has returned to the original tension.

"Let's go quickly, Narukami Taisha Shrine won't let you in so easily next time!"

Yae Kamiko looked at Washizu and Dankiroku, and immediately waved his hand impatiently to tell them to leave quickly.

This irritation is not only because they were disrespectful to him and killed Kujo Takayuki, but more of an inner irritation.

Yae Shenzi looked around and felt that nothing was pleasing to his eyes. Was my taste so strange before?

Why make the shrine look like a forbidden palace? The shrine certainly needs solemn decoration, but the Narukami Taisha Shrine in front of us is really too much.

The Grand Shrine also needs to receive believers and pilgrims, so making it so serious is putting the cart before the horse.

Yae Kamiko now wants to ask his past self, doesn’t it feel empty to stay in such a boring palace?

"Thank you, Lord Palace Secretary."

"Goodbye, Lord Palace Secretary."

"It finally came out, Jiujin..."

Just when Washijin and Dankiroku wanted to say goodbye to Yae Shenzi and leave, the space in front of them suddenly began to fluctuate.

As the crack opened and closed, thirteen furnace knights jumped out.

Otaubis was about to call out to Jiujin and the others when he suddenly noticed something strange in front of him.

"Could it be..."

"Boom!"

Silua stood up his tree spear and struck the ground with the end.

"Understood! Understood!" Otaubis nodded immediately after seeing Silua's movements.

As time changes, people's cognition here naturally changes. It's too troublesome to explain this situation, so it's better not to explain it. "It seems that it's not just here, the passage of time there is also different from here." Silua looked back at the big tree behind him, and he knew it was the handiwork of Yi Yan.

Ember had no intention of touching time when they left. Now that the big tree has grown, it seems that the flow of time in the consciousness space is much faster than in other places.

"Why did you come out? Where are the general and Ember?" Yae Shenzi frowned when he saw these strange guys coming out.

"Next time you have something going on at Narukami Taisha Shrine, can you tell me in advance? After all, we are also grasshoppers on the same rope."

Looking at the messy "Narukami Taisha", Yae Kamiko's mood couldn't be better.

Although she didn't know why everything here didn't suit her, she was the palace minister after all and was responsible for Narukami Taisha Shrine.

"Narukami Taisha Shrine? Where is that place?" Otaubis looked confused. Isn't this the castle tower? Where is Narukami Taisha Shrine?

Yae Shenzi frowned slightly when he heard this, and a trace of doubt emerged in his heart. However, before this doubt could develop, Silua had taken the first step to reassure Yae Shenzi.

"Before we take action, we don't know what this place is called. We'd better wait until the king comes out to talk to him about your words."

Silua turned around and glanced at Kujo Takayuki who was lying in a pool of blood in the distance, and his tone gradually became calmer.

At first, she was quite hostile to Yae Shenzi because of Ember's words, thinking that she would be the biggest obstacle in the process of cleaning up the shogunate.

But now... Kujo Takayuki is dead, and the biggest boss has been eliminated, then everything will be easier to handle. At least the Furnace Knights don't have to worry about any major conflicts with the local forces here.

So Silua's tone suddenly became much gentler. It would be better if there were less unnecessary conflicts.

"Oh, if you don't want to face the king, maybe you can ask the blue-haired man. He should know this too."

After passing Yae Shenzi, Silua turned back to remind her.

"I know it without you having to tell me." Yae Shenzi didn't have many surprises. His timing was so precise. He struck just when most of the shogunate officials gathered at Narukami Taisha Shrine. He didn't have to think twice to know that there must be a mole among them.

Moreover, the mole's position should be at a certain height, otherwise the whereabouts of a big shot like the head of the Kujo family would not be so clear.

Fortunately, Kamisato Ayato still had some conscience and knew that he would not hurt the descendants of Yae Kamiko by taking action when all the shrine maidens had left.

Otherwise, this matter would not have been settled like this.

Seeing Kujo Takayuki lying in a pool of blood, Yae Kamiko felt even more depressed.

It's okay if Narukami Taisha Shrine doesn't suit her aesthetics, but why is there a bathhouse below Narukami Taisha Shrine? !

Yae Shenzi was very sure that he would never allow such a thing to appear under his nose.

But it just happened! This made her not to mention how depressed she was. Yae Kamiko has made up her mind. As soon as the matter is over, she will definitely renovate "Narukami Taisha" from the bottom up!
Yae Kamiko held his chin, thinking about the future blueprint of Narukami Taisha Shrine. She suddenly felt that the "Tenshu Pavilion" seemed to be in line with her aesthetics.

Unexpectedly, Kage, a guy who is usually a homebody, unexpectedly gets along well with her in terms of aesthetics. After this Kage comes out, Yae Kamiko must have a good chat with her about her thoughts on the reconstruction of Myojin Taisha Shrine.

Behind a rockery far away from everyone, Ying withdrew her attention, and there was already a huge wave of panic in her heart.

"Pa... Paimon, this place was called the castle tower before, right?"

Ying lowered her head and asked Paimon who looked confused.

"So you think so too! It scared me to death. I thought I was the only one who had different perceptions from others!"

Paimon heard that Ying's recognition was the same as his own, and the confusion on his face disappeared, replaced by extremely excited.

She almost thought she was going to be isolated from the world just now! I didn’t expect it to be my own illusion!

"No, there are two now. Me and you." Ying looked at the people in the distance who didn't notice anything strange at all, pointed at herself, and then at Paimon.

"One of us or them, one's perception has been changed unknowingly!"
