The young man smiled.

"This is it..."

He smiled as he welcomed the descending lightning bolt, silently conveying a certain message to his mind.

—My friend, this is the scenery I longed to see.

The purple light grew brighter and brighter, and the violent lightning eroded his body, tearing apart every inch of his skin. The powerful force that seemed to pierce through his soul finally annihilated the young man's last vestige of consciousness!

Bang!

The knife in his hand snapped in two with a bang.

The Eye of God was thrown from his body, and the dazzling purple light dissipated, leaving only an ordinary empty shell of the Eye of God.

Swish!

Suddenly, a figure burst out from the crowd below, leaping onto the dueling platform at incredible speed, riding the power of the wind element, and reaching out to grab the Eye of God.

"Don't think about it!"

When Kujo Sara saw that familiar figure appear, he was suddenly alert and immediately raised his longbow.

It's him!

The humiliation of being captured in the woods surged into my heart instantly.

Before he could even think about why the other party was here, or why they dared to snatch the Eye of God right under Thor's nose, lightning gathered on his longbow and transformed into a sharp arrow that shot towards Wanye!

She reacted quickly, but the arrow was still cut down by Manyo's sword.

Ding!

As the lightning dissipated, Wan Ye swiftly grabbed the empty shell of the Eye of God, then turned and fled!

Without any hesitation!

No one could survive General Thunder's sudden, devastating blow. Perhaps he shouldn't have acted, for he was already too late; his friend was already dead.

However, it was this Eye of God that embodied the burning desire of his friend, and Wan Ye did not want it to be embedded in that cold statue.

Whoosh!

Wan Ye's figure fell from the sky, and before anyone could react, he leaped and tumbled away into the distance.

General Thunder did not move.

Her appearance was merely to carry out divine punishment, while the implementation of the Eye Hunting Order would naturally be done by others.

Kujo Sara shouted the order: "Heavenly Commander, seize him!"

wow~~

The Tenryo magistrates guarding the vicinity chased after Manyo one by one.

"General, I will definitely bring him back!"

General Thunder responded calmly, "Go."

She looked at the city of Inazuma, at its inhabitants, and after a long while, her figure flashed and disappeared into the world.

Only after she left did the oppressive feeling in the space disappear, and the Inazuma people outside the castle tower began to discuss among themselves.

First there was the duel before the emperor, and now, someone actually dares to steal something right under the general's nose!

"Who exactly is he? How dare he?"

"Whoever it is, that guy is definitely finished!"

"Having stolen the Eye of God from the General, he probably has nowhere left to hide in Inazuma."

Manyo's actions were not simply a matter of defying the Eye Hunt Order.

The crime of offending the gods would subject him to endless persecution by the shogunate army.

Even if they escaped to the resistance, it would be useless. If it were only because of the Eye Hunt Order, the Heavenly Territory Envoy who had received benefits could turn a blind eye to it.

But Wan Ye's existence is absolutely unacceptable. If he goes to the resistance, then the resistance will face the overwhelming force of the Heavenly Territory's army!

Man Ye was clearly aware of this as well, so when he fled from the castle tower, he did not choose to head towards Hachi-yū Island, but instead planned to quickly leave the city and find a place to hide.

But this is Inazuma Castle, the most heavily guarded place in the entire Inazuma.

With Kujo Sara's order, the Tenryo magistrate's samurai began to quickly seal off the city's exits.

Meanwhile, in the streets, squads of samurai chased after Manyo along the main streets and alleys.

"He's there!"

"Chase him! Don't let him get away!"

"To dare offend the General is a capital offense!"

shuh~

Manyo's figure walked through the alley.

In front and behind, the figures of the Heavenly Territory Envoy Warriors were everywhere.

A battle ensued out of necessity, and one by one, the samurai fell. However, there were simply too many of them. As the saying goes, even a novice can be overpowered by a novice, let alone the samurai who were able to defend Inazuma Castle, who were all battle-hardened and highly skilled elites.

A prolonged war inevitably leads to defeat. Faced with encirclement, Wan Ye tried several times to break through, but was stopped each time.

"Charge! He's gone into that dead end!"

"Archers, get ready! Hmm? Where are the archers?"

Suddenly, the samurai in command sensed something was wrong. When he turned around, he saw a blur before his eyes and then lost consciousness and collapsed.

Thump~

In the alley, Wan Ye looked at Su Zhe who had suddenly appeared, a look of surprise flashing in his eyes.

"why you?"

Su Zhe laughed and said, "Why can't it be me?"

"You..." Wanye looked down at the unconscious samurai on the ground, "Aren't you a member of the Tenryo magistrate?"

"When did I say I was a magistrate of the Heavenly Court? Do I look like a samurai dressed like this?"

Strange clothing, bizarre harpoons.

Man Ye had found it strange when they were in the forest, but he couldn't understand why, if he wasn't a member of the Tenryo magistrate, he was hanging out with Kujo Sara.

But Su Zhe's behavior in the woods was also strange, and coupled with his conversation with Kujo Sara, Wan Ye immediately made a judgment.

"Alright, let's talk about the rest later. If we don't leave now, that woman will come after us."

Wan Ye nodded and was about to ride the wind when he suddenly heard a loud bang. Su Zhe had kicked a big hole in the wall on one side of the alley!

"Don't go up there, it's full of archers and sentries. Go this way."

Manyo: "?"

"What are you waiting for? Let's go!"

"it is good..."

Silently watching Su Zhe smash those stones, Wan Ye thought for a moment.

In the end, he just thought about it and said nothing.

...

Ding ding ding ding!!

Alarm bells rang throughout Inazuma Castle, and pedestrians lined up side by side. From time to time, the magistrate ran back and forth, searching house to house.

"Has it been found?"

"There aren't any here either!"

"Find him quickly! He should still be in the city!"

On a street, Kujo Sara looked angry, her eyes darting around, trying to find some clues to search.

"My lord!" a samurai rushed over. "Someone saw him fleeing north, and he had an accomplice with him!"

"A helper? Is it a brown-haired canine boy?"

"No, although I didn't see his face clearly, I heard that he had blue hair and seemed to be holding a strange harpoon."

Blue hair? Harpoon?

Kujo Sara's expression froze for a moment.

Suddenly, a surge of intense anger welled up inside me.

This anger was intertwined with the trampled trust, and a sense of grievance also arose faintly.

That guy...that guy...how could she have trusted him so much, how could she have even considered introducing him to the General?

So that's why she let Goro go in the woods and then hindered her pursuit.

The urgent situation made his thoughts obsessive. Kujo Sara's eyes turned cold as he ordered, "Follow their trail and catch them! Also, that blue-haired guy, he's very capable. Be careful, and notify me immediately once you find him!"

"Yes!"

...

Swoosh~~

In the northeastern part of Inazuma City, near the edge of a cliff, two figures rushed forward at high speed.

"Damn it, we've been found out."

Looking at the ever-increasing number of pursuers behind him, Su Zhe sighed inwardly.

That's good, forget about arranged marriages, just get out of here.

"Find a place to hide. They're after me. I'll draw their pursuers away."

Wan Ye said as he ran.

"It's no use. Those guys have already identified me as your accomplice. Even if I hide, I definitely won't be able to stay in Inazuma Castle any longer. I might as well escape now. It will be too late to escape once the whole city is locked down."

Actually, it would be easy for Su Zhe to escape; he could just jump off the cliff, since he could fly anyway.
