This is different from the situation where they were previously a subordinate force of the shogunate, whose existence was deliberately concealed from top to bottom by the shogunate.

This means that the deity of Mount Sumeru was directly aware of the situation and gave this reply in his divine capacity.

If it were Inazuma... they would probably be finished long ago.

Even gods from other countries probably wouldn't be able to sit idly by in the face of such separatist behavior, would they?

Actively addressing problems, removing obstacles, and restoring unity are the theoretically normal actions.

Even if things don't go well, we should at least try our best first, right?

As a result, Sumeru's side couldn't see any concrete actions and simply gave up.

Is this a temporary concession, with efforts to integrate the two sides to come later?

"fake."

Jiang Ming walked up to Xin Hai from behind and gave a straightforward answer.

"Huh? What's fake?"

Xin Hai looked at Jiang Ming with confusion.

"The statement from Jingshan Palace regarding the Little Auspicious Grass King is false."

Xin Hai paused briefly, glanced at Jiang Ming, and then at the information about Sumeru in his hand.

For a moment, I was a little confused.

"That statement, if nothing unexpected happens, was probably forged by the Council of the Church, with the aim of shifting the blame for the division and ensuring the stability of the Council's rule."

"...And what about Little Lucky Grass King? Is she just going to let the Academy shift the blame and smear her? Is she just going to let this happen?"

Xin Hai couldn't understand it at all. For such a big matter, it was one thing for Little Lucky Grass King not to come out and make a statement, but to let others make random statements and let himself be blamed.

This is completely unreasonable from any perspective.

What is Little Lucky Grass King doing?

Could it be that, like the Anemo Archon of Mondstadt in history, he has fallen into a deep sleep and is completely unaware of this?

She was not surprised at all by the fact that the Holy See had forged a statement.

If even a powerful shogunate like Inazuma dared to deceive its superiors, it wouldn't be surprising if the Grass King were to fall into a deep sleep.

Yes, that's the only way to explain it.

Sumeru has emptiness, so logically the grass god shouldn't be deceived like the Raiden General of Inazuma.

After a mental whirlwind, he quickly found a reasonable explanation.

"The Order of the Church had secretly imprisoned the Little Auspicious Grass King shortly after his birth, keeping him in the Pure Goodness Palace. Not only was he deprived of any means of communication, the Little Grass God himself was also controlled by the Order of the Church."

The imprisonment of the Grass God is similar to the fact that the Thunder General of Inazuma is actually a puppet; it is a highly confidential matter, known only to a very few close or powerful individuals.

The vast majority of people are unaware that Little Grass God has been imprisoned, and no one would even consider that possibility.

In people's minds, gods are generally seen as omnipotent. Although this image has been shaken since Inazuma, how could the mighty Grass God be imprisoned by the humans of the Kyotoin?

How could the scholars of the Order of the Church dare to do this, and how could they possibly have the ability to do so?

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

Xin Hai also didn't think in that direction.

Because of the lack of this crucial information, the mind was unable to react and could not come up with the correct answer.

Xin Hai: "..."

Ah this...

She thought it was already outrageous that Inazuma's god was being represented by a puppet for so long, but she never expected that Sumeru would do something even more outrageous.

The gods were imprisoned by humans, which is considered a reversal of the natural order.

Is the water god of Fontaine going to be sentenced to death next?

Could it be that Navelette invited them to Fontaine to exchange experiences on judging the gods?

As the image of the deity rapidly crumbled, Xin Hai conjured up many outrageous possibilities.

"What is the purpose of the Council of the Church in imprisoning their gods?"

Because of Jiang Ming's special identity and his previous accurate prediction of the "Puppet General," Xin Hai did not doubt its authenticity, but still found it unbelievable.

What benefit would this bring to the Order of the Fathers?

"I don't know the specifics, but anyway, the Order of the Order had very high expectations for the Little Lucky Grass King. After discovering that the newly born Grass King could not meet their expectations, they probably turned against it due to great disappointment?"

He doesn't remember this either.

If you're disappointed, just let them roam free. Why do you have to imprison them and lock them up?

Jiang Ming also couldn't understand it.

While the two were discussing Sumeru, the private jet quietly approached the waters off Liyue.

Considering their recent strained relationship with Sumeru, they chose not to go through Sumeru, but instead entered Fontaine via Liyue and the direction of the Valley of the Fallen.

Meanwhile, in the Pure Land Palace, Nasita was pondering how to stop the sages of the Faith Institute from committing their inhumane and foolish acts at any cost.

Should we break free from the constraints and openly confront the Great Sage as a deity?

She rejected the proposal.

Although she has gained the ability to break free from constraints after so many years of growth, the Doctor is still there.

He could roughly deduce the Doctor's strength from the various methods she demonstrated in her research. With her current abilities, even if she regained the Heart of the Grass God, she would probably find it difficult to fight the Doctor.

Will the truth be revealed to the world through the void?

Not at all.

Putting aside the fact that the control of the void is in Azar's hands, the people of Sumeru City would probably be more willing to believe the Council of the Church than she, a grass god who can do nothing and has no prestige.

So how should we solve this?

After much thought, Naxida followed the elemental signal and focused her gaze on an airplane flying at high speed over the Cloud Sea.

Then, a public signal was simulated to initiate communication.

Chapter 245 My name is Naxi Da'o

"Ding-dong-"

An unexpected notification sound interrupted Jiang Ming and Xin Hai's conversation.

It is Jiang Ming's terminal.

Upon opening it, I found an unknown communication request.

Who is it?

While signaling for precautions, he connected to the communication system.

"Hello."

A voice that Jiang Ming found very familiar rang out.

"You are……"

"My name is Naxi Da'o."

Jiang Ming and Xin Hai both took a deep breath at the same time.

What a coincidence! Speak of the devil and he appears.

"It seems you already know me."

The fact that they didn't immediately and instinctively ask "Who is it?" already speaks volumes.

"I do have some understanding of it."

It refers to a game where you can see a character's entire life story, including their future career path.

“Little Auspicious Grass King, Grass God, Wisdom Lord—Nasita, have you come to us because there is something important we need to discuss? We have learned of some unreasonable statements made by Sumeru recently.”

"Thank you for your concern, but it's not because of those comments."

Naxi Da had a strange feeling.

This seems to imply that they already know that Sumeru's recent so-called "statement of the Pure Good Palace and the Little Auspicious Grass King" is a forgery.

Otherwise, why would they specifically tell her that her remarks were "unreasonable"?

She sensed that these people seemed to know she was being imprisoned in the Jingshan Palace.

But how could that be?

She hasn't made a public appearance in a very long time.

Moreover, even in the past, the god of Inazuma and his wise attendant probably did not know that she was imprisoned in the Jōzen-gū by the Kōryōin.

With that in mind, Nasita chose to skip the topic for the time being.

Compared to the safety of countless people in Sumeru City, these are utterly insignificant.

"What's that for?"

"Scholars who consider themselves wise are fostering folly."

Ok?

The Order did indeed distribute a large number of void terminals some time ago, and required everyone entering Sumeru City to be equipped with one.

Logically speaking, it should be close to the time of the game's storyline, perhaps a little ahead of schedule.

In the original storyline, it was only after ignoring the public's physical tolerance and starting an endless cycle that Nasita's anger was provoked.

and many more……

Could it be that an endless cycle of exploitation has already begun ahead of schedule?

In an instant, Jiang Ming realized this very bad possibility.
