In Genshin Impact, I'm really not Muzan.

"Now that you know this secret, you wouldn't... really be going to push me down, would you?" Yae no Miko exclaimed in surprise, then covered her chest with both hands.

"So this day has finally come? Although I predicted it, I... I wasn't prepared at all."

Suzumiya Yu was speechless. Even though she could see through the other party's lies every time, Yae no Miko still liked to put on this meaningless pretense in front of her.

Moreover, he knew very well that he couldn't possibly push down Yae no Kami without making a scene, and if his beastly behavior were discovered, all the prestige he had built up in Inazuma would be gone.

Therefore, he won't be in such a hurry, and he doesn't like to force others in this regard, even though it would bring a strong sense of satisfaction, the consequences of which would be very serious.

Therefore, he suppressed the raging fire within him, which was probably closely related to his recent fierce battle with Ayaka Kamisato.

"Can you be a little more serious? I really came to you because I have something to tell you." With her arms crossed, Ryouji crossed her arms and looked very impatient.

"Is that so? But... why should I help you? Can you give me a reason?" Yae no Miko finally ended the inappropriate topic, but she didn't stop teasing Suzumiya Yu.

"The reward is that I can treat you to a bowl of fried tofu ramen next time, for a period of three months." Ryouji held up three fingers, representing three months.

"Oh dear, how cunning! You're using my favorite food to tempt me? Hmm... I should have refused decisively, but for some reason, I just can't help but want to say yes."

"Why do you think I'm like this?" Yae no Miko's lips brushed close to Suzumiya Yu's ear, then she gently blew a breath. "Could it be... that I've fallen for you?"

"I should be able to take these words as your agreement with me, right?" Ryou's expression remained unchanged. Having gotten used to it, he seemed to have become immune to Yae no Miko's behavior.

So he got straight to the point and didn't want to waste any more words with the other person.

"Alright, alright, I was just kidding. So, what do you want me to do for you?" Yae no Miko put her hands on her hips. Although her tone was still the same, she at least looked a little more serious.

"You're a fox spirit, so you must know divination, right? I'd like you to help me divine about a few people."

"Really? Who could it be? I'm really curious to know why you would make a special trip to ask me for help."

Suzumiya Yu paused for a moment, then slowly named several people.

"Konbu Maru, Asase Hibiki, Yuikami Harunosuke, Gogo Nagamasa."

Hibiki Asase is the old shrine maiden who took in Hyakume-ki. It seems that even the Asase Shrine is named after her surname, while Kombu-maru is Takane's real name.

When she heard these names, a moment of surprise flashed in Yae no Miko's eyes. Clearly, she hadn't expected Suzumiya Yu to know these people.

It should be noted that Asase Hibiki and Mikoto Nagamasa were not famous people to begin with, and the name of Kami Harunosuke was completely forgotten over time. As for Kombumaru, most people did not know his real name, only that he was Kirigiri Takane.

“You should know them all, right?” Ryouko looked at Yae no Miko. In terms of timeline, although she wasn’t the priestess of Narukami Shrine at that time, she knew a lot about Narukami Shrine.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to become Kage's friend and inherit the position of High Priestess of the Fox Temple Narukami Shrine.

“I do know them all, but I’m not very familiar with them. It’s just that one of my seniors is close to them,” Yae no Miko said. The senior she was referring to was probably Kosai-no-miya.

They are both descendants of the immortal fox Bai Chen, so it's impossible that they don't know each other.

"You want to know about them? Why? That was five hundred years ago, a very long time ago. If I want to make an accurate divination, it will take a lot of my effort."

Despite saying that, Yae no Miko quickly took action.

"Let's do them one by one, starting with Kombu Maru."

She closed her eyes tightly and then pressed her index finger against her forehead. Is this the gesture for divination? It's completely different from what I imagined.

About five minutes later, Yae no Miko opened her eyes and then spoke.

"Kombumaru was originally a first-class gambler. He was skilled with a bow and later made a bet with the Tengu clan chief. The two fought to a draw, and the Tengu clan chief took Kombumaru under his command."

"Later, when the time was right, the Tengu clan chief brought Kombu-maru into the shogunate and made him serve the shogun. It is worth mentioning that during this time, he met a lover, and that lover was none other than Asase Hibiki."

Chapter 136 Inazuma's Past

"Hmm, there was a big age gap between the two. At that time, Konbu Maru had married the daughter of a high-ranking samurai. Under such circumstances, how could he still secretly find a lover?"

"Later, a catastrophe occurred in Inazuma. Kombumaru went to the front lines of the battlefield. Before leaving, he gave his treasured bow to Asase Hibiki and made the last gamble of his life: if he could return safely, the two of them would elope."

"Later, Kombumaru failed to keep his promise. He was swallowed by darkness and became a walking corpse. Relying on his strong willpower, he forced himself to return to the forest where he had made the promise with the other party, only to be shot through the heart by Asase Hibiki."

"You probably already know what happened next, right? I also predicted what happened on Qinglai Island."

After Yae no Miko finished telling the story about Kombumaru, Suzumiya Yu didn't feel much after listening because there was very little useful information.

He wanted to know why there were two Mist-Cutting Blades, but Yae no Kamiko didn't say a word about it.

If things continue like this, there probably won't be any useful clues in Asase Hibiki's story, because he has a lot of information about the other person.

"You should know about Hibiki Asase, right? In order to save Hyakume Akako, she used a secret technique to break the thousand-year seal on Seira Island, which led to the destruction of the entire island and its current state."

"As for Harunosuke Yuugami, I can't really predict much about him. After all, he is a famous Onmyoji in Inazuma, and he can even cast spells on himself that can resist the predictions of divination. So I can't do anything about it."

"However, I can tell you that Harunosuke Yugami did not die. As for where he went, I don't know, and that's not something we can know."

Yae no Miko spoke at length, but despite all that, Suzumiya Yu still couldn't glean any useful information from her.

"However, that Imperial Carriage Commander is quite remarkable. If we must tell his story, we must mention two other people."

"Do you know Miyuki Chiyo and Miyuki Doki?" Yae no Miko asked, but unfortunately, Suzumiya Yu did not know them.

However, when it comes to Chiyo, Suzumiya Yu knows Torachiyo, one of the three generals under the Raiden General five hundred years ago, a girl of the Oni clan, who has superb sword skills and beauty that even Kitsui-gumi admires.

Later, during the war against the Dark Turmoil, Fox Palace was corrupted by the black mist of the abyss and turned into a mindless monster. It drew its sword against General Thunder and was eventually cut off with an arm before fleeing into the deep mountains and disappearing without a trace.

“If you don’t know, then let me explain.” Yae no Miko saw through Suzumiya’s thoughts.

"Miyuki Chiyo is the head of the Miyuki family, a clan of demons. Five hundred years ago, she was one of the three generals under the Thunder General. My senior, the fairy fox, was also one of them."

"Mikoto Michiki is Chiyo's biological son, while Mikoto Nagamasa is Chiyo's adopted son and also Michiki's cousin. Originally, their family lived a good life until the calamity that struck hundreds of years ago."

"As a general of the shogunate, Chiyo went to war with General Raiden, but was swallowed by the black mist and turned into a bloodthirsty monster. She drew her sword against General Raiden and eventually fled wounded."

"The news of Chiyo's betrayal of the shogunate spread quickly, which caused the prestige of the entire Mikoto family to plummet, and Chiyo's sons, Michiki and Nagamasa, became the target of public criticism."

"His elder brother, Daoqi, could not accept this fact, so he went into seclusion in the deep mountains and never cared about worldly affairs again, until later, he met the daughter of the Tengu clan chief at that time - Mitsuyo."

“Mitsuyo was not ashamed of him for running away from the past, and encouraged him to cut ties with the past and be himself from now on. Thus, Michiki was given a new name by Mitsuyo: Iwakura Michitane.”

Hearing this, Suzumiya Yu was stunned for a moment.

Iwazo Doin? Iwazo? Could it be related to the Iwazo school that he himself wiped out?

Instead of immediately asking about his confusion, he continued to listen to Yae no Miko.

"For the next thirteen years, Daoyin diligently trained using the broken sword that Mitsuyo had given him. He dueled with Mitsuyo once a year. Finally, in the end, Daoyin's secret sword struck the swift and agile Tengu. The broken sword shattered upon impact, and Mitsuyo's black feathers were also cut off."

"This strike not only severed the bloodline of the Oni clan, but also severed the thirteen-year bond between the two. Mitsuyo made up her mind to become the Tengu clan leader, and Doin also founded the Iwazo-ryu school, which would later become famous throughout the world."

"Life is but a dream, and in those thirteen years, the two of them only met thirteen times. But these thirteen meetings changed the course of their lives."

"This is the story of Miyu Doki's life. The weapon you are holding now is the ancestral sword of the Iwazo-ryu school. However, it disappeared after Doin passed away. I don't know how you found it."

As expected, Iwazo Doin was the first sect leader of the Iwazo school and the first holder of the Hakuen Manko Tenmoku.

But... why did he hide his weapon inside the body of the Puppet Sword Demon after he died?

Soon, Suzumiya Yu learned the reason behind this from Yae no Miko's words.

"Poor Daoyin, he spent decades honing his swordsmanship, only to one day encounter the person he least wanted to meet: Chiyo, who had already lost her mind, had her arm severed by the Thunder General, and was emitting a foul stench."

"Although she had become unrecognizable, Dao Yin could still recognize her at a glance. It was his mother. However, the mother and son did not reminisce but immediately started fighting."

"At that time in Inazuma, apart from General Raiden, few people could match Doin's swordsmanship, so Chiyo was defeated as expected."

"No matter how reluctant he was, Daoyin still used the blade in his hand to kill his mother with his own hands, and Chiyo actually called out his name with her last breath before she died."

"That shout became the last straw that broke Dao Yin's back. From then on, he never recovered and stopped teaching swordsmanship. He even hid the famous sword he carried in a place that would never be found by future generations."

"Because the knife was stained with the blood of his birth mother, and in the end, Daoyin, whose heart was completely broken, died in despair. As one of the four great samurai of Inazuma, he possessed superb swordsmanship, yet he ended up with such a fate, which is truly lamentable."

Chapter 137 Eightfold Divine Child: I Want to Watch a Videotape of My Child

"As for Mikoto Nagamasa, his story is much simpler. Unlike his elder brother Michiki, after Chiyo betrayed the shogunate, he dedicated his life to clearing the Mikoto family's name. In doing so, he also became a famous blacksmith in Inatsume's history."

"That's all I got from my divination. How about that? Are you satisfied?" Yae no Miko put her hands on her hips, looking quite proud.

However, Suzumiya Yu was not satisfied with what she said. If it was just taken as a story, she did speak very well, but none of the questions Suzumiya Yu wanted to know were answered.

"Can't you tell me the details of those things? For example, what happened while Kombu Maru was being swallowed by the abyss?"

"No, divination can only predict the general outline of things, but not the details. Besides, that happened five hundred years ago. It's already a miracle that we were able to divine so much."

“Is that so…” Suzumiya Yu fell into deep thought. It seemed that his idea of ​​getting an answer from Yae no Miko was going to fail. Just as the other party said, astrology could predict very few things.

Otherwise, she could definitely have prevented many disasters from happening through astrology, and even killed Suzumiya Yuu before she fully developed.

Suzumiya Yuu should have thought of this earlier, but thankfully, even if he didn't answer these questions, he wouldn't suffer any loss, though he couldn't help feeling a little regretful.

"More than that, I'm curious about how far things have progressed between you and Ying. I've already released the topic for my novel writing contest."

"There hasn't been any progress yet, but I've been letting her read all sorts of romance light novels lately... Wasn't that your suggestion?"

Yae no Miko previously suggested to Suzumiya Yu that if she wanted to win over Kage, she could read various types of romance light novels to acquire some basic knowledge about romance.

Suzumiya Yu did as he was told. For the past month or so, he would send Kage light novels and sweets every now and then. At first, Kage didn't understand this new style of literature, but he gradually got used to it.

It's worth mentioning that Ying really loves light novels, and she especially enjoys reading them while eating sweets. Whenever she has free time, she always uses this method to pass the time.

If Suzumiya Yu hadn't pulled her out of the Pure Land of One Heart, Kage probably would have done the same thing all day.

The title of Teyvat's number one homebody is truly well-deserved.

"Not even a little progress?" Yae no Miko stroked her chin, disappointed by Suzumiya Yu's incompetence. "Then you should speed things up a bit, like just taking it down today."

"No, that would be too fast, although... I'd love to do that. Besides, do you really think she can understand love just by reading some light novels?"

"Oh dear, you really underestimate Ying. Although she lacks common sense and can't even cook, she has a strong learning ability. Maybe you can mold her into a virtuous wife and loving mother."

At this point, Yae no Miko couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Hehe, just imagining the scene of the usually aloof general turning into an ordinary wife taking care of the kids at home is something to look forward to."

If we're talking about insulting sisters, then we have to look at Yae no Miko. Only she dares to say such things. If anyone else had said those words, they would probably have been killed by Kage on the spot.

Yae no Miko will definitely be slashed, but she can dodge it, so she'll be fine. It's just unknown whether Kage will take it seriously and slash her a second time.

“Your imagination is quite rich. Gods can’t give birth to offspring in a normal way, right? And… how do humans and gods reproduce?” Ryou said. Although he was not human, he was the same in nature.

"Well... let me think about it. Maybe if you put in a little effort, you can create a miracle?"

Well, Suzumiya Yuuhaku was looking forward to it. After hearing what Yae no Miko said, he knew he definitely wouldn't succeed.

......

After arguing with the scoundrel for a while longer but ultimately failing to gain the upper hand, Suzumiya Yu left Narukami Shrine.
