Inuyasha: A Different Kind of Dog General

(In ancient times, those primitive gods born and raised by nature...)

It does not have complicated priesthood or positions, and does not rely on incense and offerings to maintain itself. It can make all living beings bow down to it with its own great power alone.

Such grandeur and spirit are far more captivating than those gods who are bound by rules and regulations.

Ling Yue seemed to notice her thoughts and glanced at her with lowered eyes.

That gaze was as cold as moonlight, but when it touched Cui Zi, there was a barely perceptible... scrutiny?

While Cui Zi was still pondering the deep meaning of that look, Dou Ya had already raised his front paws.

The power of prayer flows through the claws, and the healing light of Tianshengya blooms like the morning light, turning into thousands of crystal points of light that sprinkle on the earth.

(This is--)

The moment the rain of light fell, the coughs of the sick stopped abruptly, new flesh grew on the wounds of the injured, and even the dying baby in the arms opened his clear eyes.

The refugees touched their healed bodies in disbelief, the miracle from heaven reflected in their turbid tears.

When faith meets visible gifts, piety will take root in the heart.

And the figures in the clouds are engraving "The King and Queen of the West" into the depths of everyone's soul in the most direct way.

Amidst the surging tide of gratitude and worship, two cloud dogs fell from the sky.

Their bodies glowed with a hazy halo as they landed, their cloud-like hair gradually transforming into solid form.

The cloud dog on the left transformed into a majestic general in silver armor. Between his sword-like brows and star-like eyes, he exuded an aura of majesty without even being angry, causing the surrounding refugees to unconsciously hold their breath.

The cloud dog on the right transformed into a beautiful woman in gorgeous Tang Dynasty clothes embroidered with flowing cloud patterns, and the pearls and jade hanging in her hair made clear sounds when she moved.

There was a faint smile on the corner of her lips, and her eyes were filled with a dignity that made people dare not desecrate it.

“This, this is really…”

An old warrior trembled and crouched down, his forehead almost touching the ground, "God has descended to earth..."

The children opened their innocent eyes wide, and their mothers led them to kowtow repeatedly.

The entire camp fell into a strange silence, and everyone was stunned by this otherworldly transformation.

It was not until the gods and the priestess disappeared from sight that the solidified time and space seemed to begin to flow again.

"call--"

I don't know who breathed a sigh of relief first, this subtle sound was like the release of some kind of restriction.

The camp suddenly came alive—

The women patted their chests and whispered to each other, the children excitedly imitated the howling of the cloud dog, and even the most serious warriors could not help whispering to each other.

"Mom, is that beautiful sister really a monster?" The little girl tugged at her mother's clothes, her eyes still looking at the sky.

The mother quickly covered the child's mouth, but was dazed for a moment when she looked up.

"Perhaps... it is a being more merciful than God."

.....................

From the ruins of the battle, the main hall of the house was preliminarily repaired.

Dou Ya sat in front of the low table at the top, while Ling Yue Xian Ji leaned against his side, with the hem of her clothes spreading on the clean floor like flowing water.

On both sides of the lower room, Qi Tian and Cui Zi sat opposite each other. Their crimson witch costumes were particularly eye-catching in the simple and elegant hall.

The rest of the people were either stuck in front of the capital of the Kingdom of Yuga, or they were not high enough to come in.

"General, the war in Kyushu is currently at a stalemate. The Asura troops on the front lines will find it difficult to break through the vampire barrier in a short period of time. The vampires' reaction is a bit strange."

"The vampires possess teleportation magic. We originally thought they would resort to a blitzkrieg tactic, but we haven't seen it used yet."

After Qi Tian finished his concise report on the war, he expressed his guess.

"The vampires are most likely secretly accumulating strength. Bing Lanwan and the others smell a strong scent of blood and death."

"In order to prevent the vampires from having too much success, the Asura troops launched another attack last night. Two warriors were killed in the battle, and a vampire marquis was also beheaded."

After three sieges, the vampires and the dog tribes had figured out each other's tactics.

During the battle, gradually, low- and middle-level vampires stayed on the city walls and chanted magic, while high-level vampires went out of the city to fight with the Asura troops.

The number of casualties immediately decreased, but the intensity of the battle increased.

The powerful Blood Princess Akasha also earned a great reputation among the Dog Clan as the "Vampire Princess."

"General, I believe Akasha is a target worth pursuing. If the opponent cooperates internally and externally, the barrier can certainly be broken!"

"And Akasha, who has become a traitor to the vampire clan, can also become our blood blade."

After Qi Tian finished speaking, Ling Yue glanced at Dou Ya who was in deep thought and spoke.

"In this life-or-death battlefield for our race, he instigated a True Ancestor of an enemy nation to rebel, and yet he also killed many of our Dog Tribe's elite and strongest members. Isn't that a little unlikely?"

The daily battle reports from the front line would be gathered to the Western Kingdom via the communication magatama, put into written form and piled up in the government hall.

Ling Yue had naturally seen it as well.

Akasha's name is always closely linked to the list of dog warriors who died in battle.

Naturally, he had no good feelings towards this vampire princess.

But it is inevitable to think in another's shoes——

If one day foreign troops arrive at the gates of the Western Kingdom, she will stand shoulder to shoulder with Dou Ya on the front line, and will never surrender to the enemy even if they fight to the last soldier.

"Things like betraying one's clan to survive..."

She opened her red lips slightly, her voice as cold as ice, "If you have any backbone, you can't do this."

"Lord Lingyue, according to common sense, it is indeed so."

Qi Tian calmly touched his chest and saluted, and the silver armor made a small sound with the movement.

After organizing his words in his mind, he slowly told her how Akasha had let him go and how Akasha treated the weak.

Finally, he concluded, "Akasha is an outlier among the vampires who enjoy killing."

A hint of surprise flashed in Lingyue's eyes, and Cuizi also looked up and said at this time.

"Indeed, this person has a compassionate and kind heart, just like a pure white lotus that grows out of the lotus."

After hearing that the Ashura troops had difficulty breaking through the vampire barrier, she set off and took a look at Akasha from afar.

That aura was powerful but not tyrannical or cruel. Even though he reeked of blood, he was not filled with resentment or hatred.

She is like a female general fighting on the battlefield, majestic and awe-inspiring.

When Tsuriko was about to attack the city with an arrow, the aura of Arcade in the Castle of Oga also aimed at the Ashura army.

This made Cui Zi suddenly wake up.

Behind him, there is not only himself, but also many humans and monsters that he needs to take into consideration.

"The possibility of Akasha turning to the Dog Clan and betraying the Blood Clan simply out of kindness is too low."

Cui Zi confirmed Qi Tian's opinion of Akasha, but denied the possibility of Qi Tian's suggestion.

"Akasha isn't a newly converted vampire. She's the blood princess who was raised by the True Ancestor."

Qi Tian's dog ears drooped slightly, and his shoulders under the silver armor tensed almost imperceptibly.

Being rejected by two adults in succession, his usually firm eyes began to waver, and he finally cast his hopeful gaze towards the main seat.

Douya doesn't care about vampires at all, and he doesn't have any collecting habits. If they get in the way, he can just slap them to death.

It's just that the subordinate took the initiative to make a suggestion, and it would not be good to directly deny it and dampen his enthusiasm, not to mention the "grace of not killing".

"Qitian, since you want to give it a try, then you will be responsible for contacting them."

His voice was as deep as thunder, and every word carried undeniable weight. "But you must remember not to put yourself in danger, and certainly not to bring others along with you."

Everyone present understood the implication of Douya's words - it's fine to talk, but there's no need to risk your life to show your sincerity.

"Also, before we make contact, you must go back and gather three hundred new soldiers in Shanya City, and lead them back to Kyushu to participate in the battle."

"Also, you can go to the West City Forge to see if the aerial warships and transport ships made by Hequ and Gaoling are ready."

"If it's completed, we'll go straight to Kyushu and put pressure on the vampires."

"As you command, General!"

Qi Tian knelt on one knee, and the silver armor collided with each other, making a crisp sound.

He understood that this was a way out given by the king - it not only saved his face as a general, but also provided a retreat for possible betrayal.

When Qi Tian's footsteps faded away, Cui Zi mentioned the resettlement of refugees in Jiuzhou.

Douya replied with a smile.

"Don't worry, our Western Country is vast and sparsely populated. We need a large population to fill it. The migration will be handled properly."

Regardless of the era, population is a resource, let alone this extraordinary world, which can obtain the real power of prayer from human faith.

This is an extremely versatile power, and Dou Ya realized it when he showed his power in front of others just now.

In addition to enhancing the healing power of Tenseiga, Tessaiga's destructive power can also be enhanced. To a certain extent, it is also a rare item that can change fate.

In the future, you may be able to enthronize gods on behalf of heaven, build the divine court of heaven and earth, and rule the universe!

Douya's eyes flickered as he let this ambition flow in his heart. He stared at Cuizi without changing his expression.

"In the future, all the people from Kyushu will be relocated to the western part of the country to fill the gaps. Cuizi, if there are any promising talents among them, you can stay and train them to become miko."

Facing Douya's scorching gaze, Cui Zi knew very well that if she agreed, she would be completely trapped in his doghouse.

While he was hesitating, Ling Yue's "scrutinizing" eyes looked at him again.

Suddenly, Cui Zi understood what this meant, took a deep breath, and her eyes became clear.

"I understand."

These four simple words made Dou Ya happy. Ling Yue, who was standing beside him, noticed her husband's mood and felt a slight emotion in her heart.

Since she is ready to accept the rest of the people, she will not be hesitant or go back on her word.

At most, in the future, when having sex, I will severely exploit the ignorant dog so that he won’t lose his sense of self.

Noticing that Ling Yue's gaze had calmed down again, Cui Zi was a little confused as to the reason. While she was thinking about it, she spoke.
