Genshin Impact, starting from becoming the God of the Ocean

Therefore, if the current situation continues, the final result may only be the summoning of the shadow, rather than the manifestation of the will of the gods.

When the Kage discovers that Inazuma has so many problems and begins to slaughter everyone, then Umi-Gishima Island, which has colluded with the Fools to disrupt the stability of Inazuma, will be in danger.

After all, for a shadow who pursues eternity, any existence that threatens Inazuma, any unstable factor, is an eternal enemy.

To be honest, after seeing the situation on the island, Su Zhe realized that most people there just wanted to live a peaceful life.

Just like when he first arrived here, struggling alone at the bottom of the sea.

To live is the simplest and purest wish.

"Xinhai, don't do anything yet. I'm going out for a bit. Wait for me to come back."

Coral Palace Heart Sea nodded: "Okay... but what is Lord Kyogre going to do?"

"Go see someone."

Su Zhe's eyes narrowed slightly.

If we're talking about the biggest mastermind behind Inazuma's downfall, it's definitely that scumbag fox.

Narukami Island, Narukami Taisha Shrine.

When Su Zhe arrived here from Haiqi Island, the shrine maiden guarding the torii gate seemed to be waiting for his arrival.

Led by the shrine maiden, Su Zhe arrived at the outside of a room in the shrine.

Pushing open the door, I saw Yae no Miko kneeling in front of the tea table, leisurely sipping her tea.

Hearing the door open, she turned around and said with a smile, "Hehe~ Mr. Su Zhe, we meet again."

Chapter 10 Oh no! My identity as a demon god has been exposed!

Because of Su Zhe's strong request, the tea room was converted into a kitchen, and the table was filled with a large amount of delicious food.

"You actually managed to get such a huge feast? How did you do that?"

Looking at these delicious foods, Su Zhe clicked his tongue in amazement.

"I thought everyone at the shrine was vegetarian."

"A vegetarian diet?" Yae no Miko was slightly taken aback, then giggled and said, "It's not like it's a temple in Liyue. Besides, the shrine maidens are already bored living on Mount Kageshiro. If they can't even eat something good, wouldn't that be too pitiful?"

"It's as if you're living a miserable life."

Su Zhe shook his head inwardly.

He didn't know about the other shrine maidens, but this one in front of him, who spent her days eating fried tofu and reading light novels, was pitiful? What a joke!

Please give him a position like this—one with high status, little work, and the ability to slack off all day. Thank you.

"You seem to know a lot about my job."

Yae no Miko looked at Su Zhe with a smile, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes.

In just a few words, she felt like she was talking to an old friend.

They only met once, could it be... that the other person is also secretly investigating her?

Hmm...that makes sense. No one can resist a beautiful and intelligent woman like Yata no Naka de. It's perfectly normal to fall in love at first sight.

Across from him, Su Zhe began his sweep of the table. He was unaware of Yae no Kamiko's thoughts, otherwise he would have given her a good scolding and said, "You really have a good eye for people."

"Speaking of which, why didn't you leave with Wanye that day?"

Yae no Miko picked up the sake pot, poured a cup of sake for her and Su Zhe respectively, and asked casually.

"It's nothing, I just wanted to spend more time in Inazuma."

"Isn't it because a friend or something is in danger, and you can't wait to save them?"

"You're overthinking it. I don't have any friends in Inazuma. I just heard that Umijima Island has beautiful scenery, beautiful people and beautiful fish, and that the people there speak very pleasantly, so I thought I'd go and see for myself. I've been on Umijima Island these past few days."

"Is that so?"

Seeing the smile on Yae no Miko's face, Su Zhe's heart skipped a beat.

I have a feeling... this fox is thinking about something not so good.

"But how come I received a message saying that you stayed because the Fools were capturing your friends?"

"Huh? Everyone says I don't have any friends in Inazuma... Oh no, actually I do. Naganohara Yomi-no-miya, I don't know if you know her, but we're friends. She's pretty and has a good personality. I've been thinking these past few days that if I go back to Liyue, I might be able to marry an Inazuma wife."

Su Zhe said while eating.

"Mr. Bazhong, you are a man of great knowledge and experience, please give me some advice."

Yae Shenzi: "?"

She...an elderly woman?

The fox feigned anger and said, "Where am I old?"

"Uh, 'not old and not tired' is a respectful title." Su Zhe chuckled and said, "It's to show respect for your noble status. We call you that in Liyue too, like 'Lady Ningguang,' right? It doesn't mean you're actually old, but that you have a high status."

"Heh~"

Although Yae no Miko said it aloud, she had other thoughts in her mind.

“Actually, it’s not difficult to marry Inazuma no Miko,” she said with a smile. “I know Naganohara Yomi-no-miya, but are you sure you want to marry her? Aren’t you living comfortably on Umi-no-jima Island? What about that shrine maiden of Coral Palace? And I’ve also heard that you have an ambiguous relationship with Kujo Sara, the Tenryo magistrate.”

"Cough cough!"

Su Zhe choked for a moment, put down his chopsticks, and put on a serious expression.

"Rumors! Absolutely rumors! Everyone who knows me, Su Zhe, knows I'm the kind of person who's extremely loyal."

Hehe~

What do you mean by "hehe"? Don't you believe me?

Hehe~

Yae no Miko continued, putting on a "I don't believe you" look.

She's a cunning old fox who's lived for hundreds of years; what hasn't she seen? Although people as shameless as Su Zhe are indeed rare, the world is a big place, and anything is possible.

She can accept all the absurd settings in light novels, so what else can't she accept?

"Alright, I'll write a letter to Hanamisaka right now and ask Yoomiya to prepare for her wedding, shall I?"

Su Zhe's expression froze: "Isn't this a bit inappropriate? We haven't even asked the girl for her consent yet."

"It's alright. As the priest of Narukami Shrine, I can still handle this kind of thing if I want to... Hmm, I'll ask the shogun for a royal decree later. If the shogun bestows the marriage, I don't think Yoi-no-miya will have any objections."

"..."

You scumbag, are you serious?

"Never mind."

"What's wrong now?"

"I'm a wanted criminal now. How can a wanted criminal be granted a marriage by General Thunder? Besides, I'm a rather loyal person, and I also prefer to enjoy the process of falling in love. Something that goes straight to the stomach is not good."

Yae no Miko smiled and said nothing more.

Su Zhe wanted to interrupt with nonsense to divert attention, and she didn't mind going along with it, after all, she was much better at this than Su Zhe.

"Come, try the treasures of Narukami Taisha Shrine."

The first round ended, and Yae no Miko raised her wine cup.

The atmosphere suddenly became quiet; the two simply drank and ate without saying a word.

In fact, Su Zhe was quite puzzled. He always felt that Yae no Shinji had some kind of leverage over him, which was why he seemed so at ease.

Of course, we can't rule out the possibility that the cunning fox is deliberately using an empty city strategy, pretending to be confident and in control. He is indeed fierce, and he doesn't need to pretend. Perhaps that's why he has enough momentum.

He recalled carefully that even when he carried the amulet with him, he was very careful. Later, he gave the amulet to Manyo, and it was impossible for anyone to know about his identity.

However, his affairs on Haiqi Island are probably impossible to keep secret.

This woman was clearly waiting for him today. She must have known that he left from Haiqi Island. Inazuma is only so big, but this scumbag fox has lived for hundreds of years. How could she not have some kind of plan?

At least in Su Zhe's view, Yae no Miko's control over the situation in Inazuma is stronger than that of the Seven Stars of Liyue over Liyue.

He glanced at Yae and noticed that the latter was just drinking, not eating, and was looking at him while drinking, a smile that made him feel uneasy.

Even Su Zhe couldn't eat anymore at this moment.

"Alright, let's get down to business."

He put down his chopsticks and wiped his mouth.

"Miss Yae, you've been waiting for me here on purpose today, haven't you?"

"Oh dear~ Wasn't it Mr. Su Zhe who came to find me on his own initiative?"

"No, I'm here to draw a fortune stick."

"Well, I wasn't waiting specifically for you. I was waiting for a friend."

Here it comes, a friend made out of thin air.

Su Zhe pursed his lips, knowing that Yae no Shinji just didn't want to speak first. In some situations, whoever speaks first will feel awkward, and whoever speaks first will lose.

It's like you say you'll rub against someone, but you rub against them until they're uncomfortable, and they don't say anything. You're uncomfortable from rubbing against them, and then it becomes awkward.

"Alright, alright, you really don't want to suffer any loss."

After a brief stalemate, Yae no Miko cast a resentful glance at Su Zhe.

"You came to me, naturally because of Haiji Island. The resistance is in a precarious situation. It's impossible for them to change the shogun's decision with their own strength. The Eye Hunting Edict, the Isolation Edict, the Shogunate's oppression... these are all things that need to be resolved."

"But all the problems, in the final analysis, come down to one thing: the will of General Thunder."

To take control of the situation, you must first understand it clearly.

The root of Inazuma's problem lies not elsewhere, but with the general.

However, it is very difficult to reverse the will of a god. Even the Yae no Miko, a divine familiar, could not do so. In front of the cold-faced puppet general, she even risked being killed. Well, although she could dodge it.

Therefore, we need to start from other aspects and solve the problem step by step.

The more chaotic the situation in Inazuma, the better, because only in this way can Kage realize the seriousness of the problem.

This chaos encompassed both internal and external troubles. The foolish masses were the external threat, the actions of the temple were the internal threat, and the voices of the rice-growing people were also present. All of this was enough to draw the attention of the reclusive gods.
