Genshin Impact: This light novel author doesn't cross the line.

In an instant, he rushed to Yingmei's side and used all his strength to raise his sword to meet the terrifying lightning blade.

"boom!"

The moment they made contact, General Thunder's pupils dilated instantly, and a flash of surprise and anger crossed her eyes.

The man in front of me was actually...

It actually managed to withstand her unexpected strike!

Although the power of this strike was less than one-tenth of her peak strength, it was still far beyond what any human could withstand.

She gripped the knife hilt tightly, increasing the pressure in her hand, intending to crush him completely.

Chiki Ueno felt like a tiny ant facing a terrifying and powerful ancient demon god.

He knew perfectly well that the gap between himself and General Thunder was like the chasm between heaven and earth, insurmountable.

He even felt that his existence was insignificant, as if all his efforts were in vain in the face of this powerful enemy.

Nevertheless, he did not give up.

The power of the Eye of God had been completely exhausted, but he did not despair because of this. Instead, he placed all his hopes on the Evil Eye.

Although he knew the Evil Eye was extremely dangerous, he had no choice but to frantically squeeze the power out of it.

At this moment, he did not regret saving Youren's life, thus changing the crucial moment when Ye Tiandi blocked General Leidian's attack.

That's the kind of person he is—a foolishly kind-hearted person. In his previous life, he was a struggling writer who was having a very difficult time, but he still tried his best to help some children with terminal illnesses within his means.

The same applies to the cruel world of Genshin Impact.

The world was not kind to him, but he remained kind to the world.

"Qianshu, run!" Yingmei finally broke free from the oppressive restraints of General Leidian and sped towards the gate of the Heavenly Guard.

General Raiden was momentarily distracted, and Ueno Chiki seized the opportunity. He used all his strength to push away her blade and then turned and ran.

She watched the two figures flee, sneered, and then calmly chased after them in the direction they had gone.

When she stepped out of the castle gate, the scene before her eyes astonished her.

The plaza outside the castle tower was packed with all sorts of people, including the Umijima rebels, shrine officials, and even shogunate soldiers.

They held weapons in their hands, their gazes cold and resolute, emanating an aura of fearlessness in the face of death.

She couldn't understand why so many people had gathered here without her orders, and why the Haizhi Island rebels had brazenly appeared here.

She glanced around and her gaze fell on Kujo Sara, who was not far away.

"Kujo Sara, tell me, what are you trying to do?"

Kujo Sara stepped forward alone, her expression complex. "General, please tell me, are you truly a puppet made by the gods?"

She said expressionlessly, "Yes. The meaning of my existence is to fulfill the eternal duty of General Thunder!"

An overwhelming and indescribable sadness and disappointment rose in Kujo Sara's heart; she could not accept this cruel reality.

The one who rules and governs the country of Inazuma is actually a heartless puppet!

"Puppet General, please tell the real Thunder General that her eternity is wrong! We have gathered here so that she can hear the people and know their will."

The puppet general remained as cold as ever. "I've said it before, my purpose in existence is to uphold the eternal principles of the Thunder General! If anyone dares to oppose me, there will only be one outcome: death!"

"Even if all the people of Inazuma oppose the Raiden General's eternity, should we still carry it out?" Kujo Sara asked rhetorically.

The puppet general did not reply; the lightning emanating from the dream in his hand spoke volumes.

"Kujou Sara, you saw that, didn't you? It's completely unreasonable to talk to this doll." Yingmei said indignantly. Just now, this doll general disregarded martial ethics, launching a sneak attack on her, a five-hundred-year-old woman. If it weren't for Ueno Chiki's selfless rescue, she might have already died by his blade.

Kujo Sara sighed and said to Yingmei, "Traveler, proceed with your plan!"

Yingmei drew the Divine Sword of Dawn, leaped into the air, and slashed at the puppet general, shouting, "Reappear! Reality, shatter! Spirit, Pure Land of the Heart, open it for me!"

Chapter 73 Pure Land of Single-Minded Devotion

With a roar from Yingmei, the puppet general closed her eyes slightly, and a dark purple space unfolded behind her.

Ueno Chiki watched this scene with satisfaction; everything had finally returned to the original plot, and now it was up to Yingmei to perform.

Then what happened next was beyond his imagination. The dark purple space did not disappear immediately after surrounding Yingmei, but continued to extend until it stopped at his feet.

In the desolate and silent space, a stunningly beautiful woman sat cross-legged.

She wore a well-fitting, simple light purple kimono. The collarless, wide robe parted naturally to the sides, revealing a large expanse of flawless, snow-white skin through the V-shaped opening at her chest. A red silk high-waisted sash connected the two halves, and the front of the kimono was shorter, creating an absolute territory between her fair, full thighs and stockings.

Her face was dignified and austere, and her thick, purple hair was adorned with gold ornaments and blue flowers, giving her a noble and graceful appearance.

As the supreme and terrifying incarnation of thunder, the most magnificent thunder god, the supreme ruler of the Inatsuma Shogunate, the thunder god who wields authority and pursues the lonely path of eternity—the Thunder Movie.

"This time you have an extra companion. Let me think about what brought you before me. Was it your foolish courage, your desire to protect the people, or... your true intention was to pay homage to me?"

Compared to the puppet general, Lei's tone, while not as friendly, at least had some warmth.

"Neither the Eye Hunting Order nor the Isolation Order should have been issued." Yingmei looked directly into Lei Yingdian's eyes, her gaze filled with determination.

"Oh? You roused me from my eternal meditation just to tell me this? Then you underestimate me. I personally approved both the Eye Hunting Edict and the Isolation Edict. I think these two edicts are excellent and can carry out my eternal righteousness."

Clearly, Lei Films strongly agrees with these two government orders.

Seeing her so stubbornly refusing to see the truth, Ueno Chiki could no longer contain himself. He stepped forward and said, "General, do you know that your so-called eternity has made Inazuma the most ignorant, uninformed, and backward country on the continent of Teyvat? And the Eye Hunting Order and the Isolation Order are the biggest joke among the Seven Kingdoms."

Lei Film didn't take his sarcastic remarks to heart. "That's the view of foolish mortals. I have witnessed a nation that ran at full speed lose everything in the face of justice, and bring endless disasters to the world."

"Uh, General, is it possible that Inazuma is crawling on the ground right now, and that it is at least a thousand years away from the advanced Kanria?"

Comparing Inazuma to Canria is really an insult to Canria.

Moreover, the reason Kanria ran at full speed back then was because it was a godless kingdom, while Inazuma was a land with gods.

"You say all this just to shake my eternal will? Then let me see your resolve!" A naginata appeared in her hand, and a wheel of lightning appeared behind her.

Ueno Chiki quickly waved her hand, "General, I can't sway your will. It's the traveler who can sway your will."

As he spoke, he pointed at Yingmei.

“Coward!” Lei Yingdong gave him a contemptuous look.

This infuriated him. He didn't want to back down, but the problem was that he was no match for Lei Yingdian. Fighting her would be suicide.

Then, Lei turned his gaze to Yingmei, "You are the greatest enemy of eternity, the one who defies eternity. Let me see your resolve!"

A divine sword of dawn, shimmering with holy light, appeared in Yingmei's hand. "Come, General Thunder!"

Then, an earth-shattering battle unfolded in the Pure Land of One Heart.

In an instant, dazzling lightning collided everywhere.

Although Yingmei had undergone special training with the Anti-Lightning General and was very familiar with his attack methods, the intensity of Lei Yingdian's attacks was far greater than that of the lightning mechanism. Each of her attacks was like a long-planned downpour, swift and unstoppable.

Soon, Yingmei was completely at a disadvantage.

Seeing that things were not going well, Ueno Chiki shouted at Yingmei, "Quickly take out the amulet that Yaehime gave you!"

Yingmei then remembered this matter, recalling that Yae no Miko had specifically instructed her that this amulet could play a special role at crucial moments.

She touched herself all over, and her heart sank.

Last night, she brought the amulet into her Dust Song Pot, and treated it as if it were the Eightfold God Child, kissing and hugging it, only to have it fall into the Dust Song Pot.

She let out a mournful cry, "Qianshu, the protective charm has fallen into the Dust Song Pot."

Upon hearing this, Ueno Chiki was like a stragglers leaving a room—he couldn't hold back any longer. There was no time to say anything now, so he could only shout, "Traveler, I'll hold off the general! You quickly open the Dust Song Pot and get the amulet!"

As he spoke, the Eye of God at his waist flashed with a dazzling purple light once again.

"General, your opponent is me! Take this five-strike lightning whip!"

Just then, five bolts of lightning simultaneously and at incredible speed struck Lei Yingdian. These bolts of lightning seemed to tear through the air, flashing with dazzling light and carrying a destructive power.

However, facing the attack of five bolts of lightning, Lei Yingdian showed no fear. A mocking smile curled at the corner of her lips, as if she found the attack utterly ridiculous. She was the Goddess of Lightning; how dare someone attack her with lightning?

Five bolts of lightning struck Lei Yingdian swiftly, but she showed no reaction whatsoever. The originally incomparably powerful lightning force burst like a bubble the moment it touched her, having no effect on her whatsoever.

"With this little strength, you think you can shake my eternal belief? Don't you find that laughable?"

Ueno Chiki didn't say anything, but instead unleashed his elemental burst, transforming into Kun and stepping forward with a lightning Kun Mountain Strike.

Before he could even get close to Lei Yingdian, he suddenly used Kun Shan, swinging his legs backward.

Seeing his awkward movements, Lei Yingdian couldn't help but laugh. "Are you here to be funny?"

“That’s right. I’m just here to make people laugh.” Ueno Chiki replied seriously while doing a Kun-Shan.

He only needs to stall Thunder Movie and let the traveler retrieve the amulet from Dust Song Pot; there's no need for him to actually confront Thunder General head-on.

"You're probably trying to stall me so the traveler can use something against me, right?"

He nodded. "Yes."

"Then turn your head and take a look."

Ueno Chiki turned his head, and almost spat out a mouthful of blood on the spot, only to see Yingmei watching his actions with great interest.

Chapter 74 In the Pure Land of Single-Mindedness

"Ying, please, just be a human being! Quickly open your Dust Song Pot and take out that amulet."

Yingmei didn't open her Dust Song Pot, but instead took out the amulet directly. "I just remembered, the amulet wasn't left in the Dust Song Pot, but in my spatial backpack."

Ueno Chiki's fists were clenched. If Lei Yingdian hadn't been there, he would have definitely taught this guy a lesson. Was he even doing something human? He'd even made him show his chicken feet.

The amulet suddenly emitted a pink light, which stood out brightly in the dark purple space, and a beautiful figure appeared before the three of them.

"Divine Child, is this your plan?" Lei Yingdong asked the newcomer in a low voice.

Yae no Miko covered her mouth and chuckled, like a little fox who had succeeded in her scheme. "Hehe, don't forget who taught you to harbor your consciousness in an object."

Then, she walked to Yingmei's side, leaned close to Yingmei's ear, and gently blew a breath. The warm breath made Yingmei's heart itch. "You don't actually think that your wish alone can overcome the will of the shadow, do you? Although you are here, the people's wishes have already been placed on you. So, close your eyes."

Yingmei closed her eyes, and countless voices echoed in her mind.

At the same time, many bright stars appeared in the sky above the desolate Pure Land of One Heart, twinkling and shining brightly, illuminating the entire space.

That is the people's wish!
