Kujo Sora, Kamisato Ayato, Hiiragi Senri.

Yae no Miko said that the general had recently gone out on business, and Su Hao had returned from Sumeru to guard Inazuma.

Therefore, when the general is not in Inazuma, the three chief ministers must work together to protect Inazuma.

From this moment forward, Inazuma will be on high alert. The merchants will be under constant surveillance until winter, so that they have no chance to gather intelligence.

In addition, if spies from other countries are discovered, they can be arrested immediately. Suspects can also be arrested first, and she will send people to interrogate them.

Upon hearing the order given by Yae no Miko, Kujo Sara and Kamisato Ayato showed a hint of surprise in their eyes.

It's not uncommon for the general to leave Inazuma multiple times, so why is this time so serious?

However, Kujo Sara and Kamisato Ayato were both intelligent people, and they knew that the chief priest's seriousness meant that something big was about to happen in Inazuma.

So they both nodded to indicate that they understood, and that they would definitely arrange for more people to be on guard when they got back.

Although Hiiragi Senri is inferior to Kujo Sara and Kamisato in every way, she is very obedient and has expressed that she will absolutely obey orders.

And so, the entire Inazuma region entered a state of wartime alert.

On the surface, everything seems normal, but in the next few days, anyone who dares to commit a crime or cause trouble will be arrested by the shogunate army immediately.

This left the residents of Inatsume somewhat puzzled, wondering why the public order had suddenly improved recently, but it was a good thing.

No one will complain about poor public security, as long as it's not too strict, like a lockdown order, then everything is fine.

Some individuals sensitive to the changing situation in Inazuma sensed something was amiss and began to conduct a covert investigation.

I wanted to see what was happening in Inazuma. The security situation had become so strict; had something happened?

This caused some people with their own ulterior motives to have some bad thoughts, and they subsequently began to investigate.

The result was obvious: no sooner had they begun their investigation than Kujo Sara arrived with his men to arrest them.

Meanwhile, somewhere on Umijima Island, Fuchigami, who had transformed into an ordinary person, also sensed the change in Inazuma's demeanor.

"How is this going?"

Yuan Shang looked at the thunderstorm that shrouded Inazuma in the distance, frowning slightly, not understanding what had happened to Inazuma.

Not long ago, his friends from the Abyss Order conveyed a message to him, saying that His Highness the Prince needed to speak with him.

This forced Yuan Shang, who had finally found an area that led directly to Yuanxia Palace, to temporarily halt his plans and prepare to return to the abyss to find His Highness.

Although Yuan Shang always said that he was not one of those people who revolved around His Highness every day, if His Highness really issued an order...

So Yuan Shang will still go back without hesitation, after all, that is his most respected prince!

But now Fuchigami is in a rather awkward situation, because he can't go back, and the thunderstorm around Inazuma is starting to stir.

Yuan Shang felt a faint sense of being watched. He had a premonition that a large-scale spatial teleportation was being used within Inazuma's territory, or that a special method was being used to open the abyss rift.

Then the thunderstorm in the sky will definitely attack him, and the thunder god in the castle tower is also very likely to attack him from a distance.

If that's the case, it could really kill him.

Yuan Shang believed that he was much stronger than most beings on the continent of Teyvat.

But he didn't dare to challenge the legendary Thor, a ruthless god who survived the war between demons and gods. If Thor were to strike from afar, he would likely be in serious trouble.

"We must find a way to leave here. His Highness told me to come back quickly, probably because he has discovered something."

Yuan Shang stroked his chin, feeling as if he had grasped the meaning of "Your Highness," so he also headed upwards, having decided to leave.

Then we need to act quickly. Although I don't know what happened on Inazuma's side, at least I'm on Umijima Island.

There aren't many strong individuals on Haiqi Island to begin with. The strongest one is now the Human God Priestess, Coral Palace Heart Sea, who has temporarily left Haiqi Island.

The second strongest, former rebel general Goro, has gone to Inazuma Castle to do something unknown.

Third... ha, just an unknown nobody, not worth mentioning at all.

Therefore, Fuchigami planned to leave by boat from Umijima Island. Once he left the Inazuma Sea, he would be free to move around as he pleased.

With that in mind, Yuan Shang naturally took immediate action.

He walked quickly toward the place where the boats were moored on Haizhi Island, pondering whether he should steal a boat and leave, or use his own strength to infiltrate a fishing boat.

But Yuan Shang felt that there wasn't a single strong person on Haiqi Island right now, so why think so much? He could just charge in!

With that thought in mind, Yuan Shang swaggered towards the Haiqi Island pier.

When he arrived there, he found a fishing boat preparing to set sail at the Haizhi Island pier, with many people loading things onto it.

Seeing this, Fuchigami felt like the heavens were helping him! He needed to find a way to infiltrate this fishing boat and then leave the Inazuma waters! Then everything would be fine!

Thinking of this, Yuan Shang came over to the fishing boat and saw a man wearing a straw hat directing people to board and disembark. He said, "Hello, is there anything I can help you with?"

Upon hearing this, the man wearing a straw hat turned around.

'!!!!!!!'

Upon seeing the man wearing a straw hat, Yuan Shang showed a rather shocked expression.

This person is known in the Abyss Cult's intelligence network as the third-in-command of the Inazuma Resistance Army—Kaedehara Manyo.

The holder of the Eye of God is no less powerful than Kujo Sara and Goro, and he himself is the leader of an army.

On Haiqi Island, the other party also possesses an unimaginable reputation.

After all, the third-in-command of the resistance in the open is much more prestigious than Yae no Kamiko, the top leader of the resistance who is hiding in the shadows.

Therefore, at that moment, Yuan Shang secretly realized that he had been too careless. By rushing forward to strike up a conversation, he was bound to arouse the other party's suspicion.

"help?"

Sure enough, when Wan Ye saw Yuan Shang come over to help, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes. He looked Yuan Shang up and down.

He frowned slightly, for he had no memory of the other person since he entered Haiqi Island.

Whether they were traveling merchants from foreign lands or tourists, Wan Ye had become somewhat familiar with them.

After all, he had been on Haiqi Island for nearly ten days. There were relatively few people on Haiqi Island, so it was easy to tell whether someone was from out of town or a local.

Furthermore, since Manyo was the third-in-command during the resistance period, he became the de facto leader in the absence of Sango Mikoto and Goro.

Therefore, Manyo, who came to guide the Kabuki people on their journey, was inexplicably drawn into various small incidents that required his help.

For example, this fishing boat needs someone to keep an eye on it to prevent malicious people from boarding and then smuggling themselves out of Inazuma.

This has happened more than once or twice. It is said that some merchants from the Winter Solstice have committed crimes on Narugami Island and then fled without saying a word.

After they escaped, they went straight to Haizhi Island. They first identified themselves, then said that there was an emergency at home and they needed to leave by boat as soon as possible. They then gave him a large sum of Mora.

And that was it. The people on Haizhi Island, after losing the Coral Palace Heart Sea, naturally experienced a significant drop in intelligence for some reason.

Seeing that the man was so sincere and willing to provide Mora to them, and that he had urgent matters at home, the people on Haiqi Island naturally let them pass.

Before half a day had passed since they were released, the shogunate army arrived and issued wanted notices, stating that anyone who saw these people should be arrested immediately.

The people on Haizhi Island were dumbfounded; these people looked so familiar.

It is said that because of this incident, the soldiers of Haizhi Island spent a lot of effort to finally stop the person in advance and lock him up in the dungeon.

Finally, these prisoners were handed over to the Shogunate army, and the matter was considered closed.

Having learned from the previous experience, Wan Ye naturally became secretly vigilant. He quietly placed his hand on the hilt of his sword, preparing to take down his opponent first.

Regardless, the priority is to win over the other party first. If they are innocent afterward, then I will apologize to them.

After all, it's highly suspicious that a complete stranger would show up here and ask if they need help.

In addition... Wan Ye had a strange intuition that the person in front of him gave him a faint sense of crisis.

"Ugh."

At this moment, Yuan Shang sighed inexplicably and looked at Wan Ye, saying, "To be honest, sometimes being too smart is not a good thing."

Both were intelligent people, and Yuan Shang realized that Wan Ye intended to take him down.

If it weren't for this unusual thunderstorm, Yuan Shang would have been quite confident in his ability to conceal his identity.

But now, the unusual thunderstorm indicates that something is wrong with Inazuma, and His Highness has asked him to come back immediately.

This made Yuan Shang unable to help but imagine some things, and coupled with the influence of the abyss energy, his actions became somewhat extreme.

He can't afford to be captured right now, so he'll defeat the former third-in-command of the resistance and escape from Inazuma!

"Whoosh—!" Wan Ye drew his sword, exuding a dashing aura as he charged towards Yuan Shang.

"Ha! Useless attack!" Yuan Shang sneered. Now that things had come to this, he stopped pretending! Ominous flames erupted from his body.

The fire enveloped him, and Abyss revealed his true form: Abyss Singer - Abyssfire.

Upon seeing that it was the Abyss Order, Wan Ye increased the force in his hands, and his wind element condensed even more.

Yuan Shang also opened the book in his hand, and said in a somewhat impassioned voice: "Ashes give birth to new life!"

Several fireballs hurtled towards Wan Ye.

"boom--!!"

The wind and fire collided, and a violent explosion rang out, engulfing Manyo in the smoke.

The Kabuki members who were still unloading cargo on the ship quickly put down what they were doing and leaned out to watch the battle on the dock.

"Manyo!!!" Kabuki shouted anxiously.

Perhaps it was because the Kabuki members had louder voices, but Yuan Shang looked in his direction, his eyes widening slightly as he exclaimed incredulously, "Scouts?!"

"What the hell?! How did this guy get here?!"

Yuan Shang's mind raced, and for a fleeting moment, he even felt that this was a conspiracy against him.

Who is the Sanbing? The opponent is the sixth executive officer of the Fools, whose strength is second only to the Demon God Domain.

In addition, there were rumors in Xumi that Sanbing was a key figure in the god-making project, and that he had once ascended to godhood in Xumi.

Although he was later defeated by Su Hao and his group and sent to Inazuma City for trial, it is said that he will spend the rest of his days in Inazuma atoning for his sins until his death.

With such a powerful being, Yuan Shang felt that he, a civil official, could never be a match for him.

Let alone the stragglers, even this Wan Ye is no easy nut to crack. If the two of them were to join forces, wouldn't I be doomed?!

Driven by his instinct for danger, Yuan Shang decisively opened a spatial portal and prepared to leave the place without saying a word.

Large-scale teleportation is unavailable, but short-distance teleportation is still usable.
