General Raiden is a puppet, but this also means that she is the purest warrior. She has her own judgment on the two parties in the duel before the emperor. Otherwise, if anyone can duel, a young man challenging a baby or an old man, things would have been a mess a long time ago.
A duel before the emperor is to give the weak a chance to fight for their lives, rather than allowing General Lei Dian to become a sword in the challenger's hand so casually. God has his own majesty and magnanimity.
As for the reason why the other party knew him, there was no need to ask further. Xie Yan had the power of the Heart of God, so he must have been recognized and helped by the Son of God. It must be the Son of God who told him his information.
Ying guessed the Son of God's plan in her heart, but she didn't care too much... In fact, deep down, she even missed him a little, after all, she hadn't seen the Son of God for a long time.
Xie Yan took out the various documentary evidences collected by Xiaolu from the system's storage space. He had hidden the things in it before the war.
"This is the evidence I have collected. The Kanjo Bugyo and Tenryo Bugyo have deals with the Fatui. The documents that Shinsuke and Kujo Takayuki submitted to you before were also instructed by the Fatui. The same is true for the National Seclusion Order and the Eye Hunting Order."
"Also, you should have heard what Kujo Sara said outside, right? It can be said that the current Inazuma problem was caused by the collusion between these two great magistrates and outsiders. You can check these evidences carefully. If there is anything wrong, I am willing to accept any punishment."
Ying didn't care about his method of conjuring documents out of thin air. She took the document and looked at it carefully. It was indeed evidence of the communication between the Fatui and the two great magistrates.
"No need, I trust you." Ying took a quick look and put down the document.
Although she didn't like reading documents and was worried that she wouldn't be able to understand them and would embarrass herself in front of Xie Yan, in the mental world of Isshin Pure Land, she could feel the sincerity of Xie Yan's words, and that he was a pure warrior, far from being comparable to Shinjie and his ilk.
In addition, Xie Yan is also acquainted with the Son of God. The source of his martial arts is either himself or an old friend. He also has the desire to protect Inagaki and his people. From a personal point of view, Ying actually values Xie Yan very much.
Now, the only one who enjoys such treatment in Inazuma is Kamiko.
"Well, I will explain the situation to the general and ask her to grant you the power to investigate the two executors. You can decide on your own how to punish them. If you have any concerns, feel free to ask me. But you have to handle this matter, including the subsequent position of the new executor, properly." Ying said carefully.
After hearing what Xie Yan said just now, she had some idea of her own and the general's political level. It would be better to let Xie Yan handle this matter himself.
In addition, Ying was actually very angry. She had not expected that the two great lords of the throne would be so greedy, collude with outsiders, resell important national materials, and impose heavy taxes on the people.
Xie Yan found it a little hard to believe how cooperative and easy-going Ying was. Before this, he really had never thought that things would go so smoothly. These two generals, whose power was second only to General Lei Dian, were led to their destruction by just two words from him.
Sure enough, it was the right decision to go directly to Ying. Talking to General Lei Dian for a long time would only make her think that "if you can't solve the problem, then get rid of the person who raised the problem."
And from what Tingying meant...he could even "recommend himself" for the subsequent position of executive.
but--
This was not what he wanted. Showing Ying the current situation of Inazuma and showing that the people were oppressed by the two great magistrates was only one of the things. The most important thing was to let her see the wishes of the people, let her step out of the shadows, and pay attention to Inazuma again.
"and then?"
50 is coming, Lei movie
"What then?"
Ying narrowed her eyes slightly. She didn’t understand what Xie Yan wanted to say. After all, she thought she had given him enough trust. In order to better handle the matter, she was also willing to open Yixin Pure Land during this period of time. Isn’t that enough?
"I mean, the Eye Hunting Order and the Locked Country Order."
"..."
Ying's face gradually became gloomy, but he still explained seriously: "If you want to talk about this, then I can tell you that I know everything about [Eternity]. Although the Fatui have intervened, this is indeed my wish... I admit that I am indeed not aware of the two major orders to profit from this matter, but if you become the new Lord of the Order in the future, these two orders will not be changed."
"I came here today to explain to you and show you the wishes of the Inagi people. I also want to tell you that the National Closure Order and the Eye Hunting Order are not the right way to pursue eternity. They are just traps set for you by the Fatui."
"Take back your nonsense."
Ying was really angry now.
She said sternly, "You have earned my respect with your bravery, and I have also seen your desire to protect Inazuma, so I just acknowledged that you are my most valued subject, but this does not mean that you can oppose the decision of the gods."
"Even if lifting the isolation order and the eye hunting order is actually the wish of all Inazuma people, do you think that the eternity you insist on is correct?"
"You don't understand at all. Chasing wishes will only make people lose more. Although the God's Eye was taken away and although I was restricted to Inazuma, but this way... at least I survived, didn't I?"
Ying seemed to be thinking of something while speaking. She closed her eyes and her clenched hands seemed to be trembling.
After a long time, she finally opened her eyes, her gaze regained its previous firmness: "I have witnessed too much loss. This is my promise to my subjects, and I will do anything for it. If you want to stop me, then you must be prepared."
Every step forward means loss. Lily, Kitsune Saimiya, Torachiyo, Raiden Shin, each figure appears in her mind. Every loss makes Ying feel like she is falling into a nightmare. She can no longer accept the loss.
The beauty of a moment is indeed intoxicating, but so what? When time passes, all the people you cherish are gone. What is the meaning of beauty?
"I just want to protect Inazuma forever... You don't understand at all."
"But compared to these, if a country has no aspirations and loses its ability to change, it will only usher in its downfall. What your people need is not promises, but your attention. How long has it been since you took a good look at Inazuma?"
"enough!"
Thunder suddenly appeared, purple lightning surged, and the majesty of the gods was undisguisedly unfolded in the Pure Land of One Mind.
A purple katana appeared in Lei Dianying's hand, and she walked towards Xie Yan like the Thunder General just now. The purple lightning on the katana in her hand kept jumping as if it had life. In the face of this power of heavenly punishment, the space seemed to be distorted as if it was about to be torn apart.
"Take back what you said just now. I will forgive you for the past, and you can become the new Lord of the Law. This is your last chance." She raised the Dream Heart in her hand, and the roar of thunder flashed in the dark sky behind her.
but--
Under Ying's extremely oppressive steps, Xie Yan instead let out a sigh of relief.
"I almost fell into a misunderstanding again. Warriors should not sit and talk, but use swords to determine their hearts... Since you are so convinced of the eternity you pursue, then I will use the wishes of Inami and his people to verify your eternity."
His previous feeling was correct. Empty talk was too hollow, and he was not a man who was good at speaking. In this case, he might as well use the sword in his hand to speak. This was the way warriors communicated.
But this time, Xie Yan didn't plan to project his dream again.
"This body was created by the sword!"
A low chanting sound was heard in the Pure Land of One Mind.
Ying's eyes focused, and she felt that there seemed to be some changes in her pure land.
"Forget it, since you have decided to be my enemy, then..."
She continued to move forward, and with a thought, several thunder eyes of disaster appeared in all directions around Xie Yan, with strands of purple lightning condensing on them.
This eye sees the world!
Xie Yan was well prepared. With a thought, the void behind him suddenly twisted, and several long swords shot towards the direction of the thunder eye and destroyed it.
"The blood is like iron, and the heart is like glass!"
"Conquer countless battlefields without defeat!"
When the third mantra was chanted, the dark sky of the Pure Land of One Mind suddenly began to become a little brighter.
Yingxiu frowned slightly, the pure land was the scenery in her mind, but now it was covered by Xie Yan's mind... Could it be that my will could be suppressed by a mortal?
No...you simply don't understand. The more you pursue your wishes, the closer you will get to death. Just like now, you are clearly trying to protect Inazuma, but you are going to be executed by me yourself.
Wouldn't it be better to just accept the reality and be your lord, enjoying endless power? You could have become my most valued subject, so why did you have to become my enemy for some inexplicable wish?
"Disrespectful! Ridiculous!"
The lightning on Meng Xiang Yixin's body gradually condensed, emitting a breath of destruction, and she slashed a sword in the direction of Xie Yan.
"The blazing sky covers seven rings!"
Seven overlapping petal shields appeared in his hand. Although the first six shields were instantly shattered by the thunder sword energy, the last shield barely blocked it.
“Never lost once.”
“Never won a single victory.”
"We are united here, and we forge swords on the sword hill."
The mental landscape unfolded more and more clearly. The pure land of one mind in silence could no longer conceal the infinite sword system that symbolized rebirth. The whole world was constantly shaking, and the bright and clear light was dispelling the darkness in the sky.
The wills of the god who sat on the castle tower and looked down at the human world and the son of man on earth completely intersected at this moment.
Ying suddenly froze in place, holding the sword in her hand, staring blankly at Isshin Jodo whose appearance had changed drastically.
No... this is not eternity... no matter how beautiful the moment is, it is meaningless.
"You don't understand at all. You will only lose more this way!"
As if to convince herself, Ying would never allow her will to waver here. She no longer hesitated, and took the initiative to rush towards Xie Yan, slashing down at his right hand holding the shield with a sword!
"Then there is no need for any meaning in this life."
"This body is destined to be created by the [Infinite Sword]."
The dream wrapped in purple thunder was aimed at the arm, but there was no feeling of hitting anything real, and Ying still kept swinging the sword.
"Individual and world, fantasy and reality, replace the inner and the outer, rewrite the real world with the mental landscape, this is my inherent barrier. Unlimited Swordsmanship... But these swords now carry the wishes of the Inagi people. Next, I will let you see them one by one."
Xie Yan's figure appeared behind her at some point.
Although the dilapidated buildings and torii of Isshin Pure Land were still there, the ground was now filled with countless swords.
Xie Yan casually pulled out one of the swords and pointed it at her: "Take it, Lei Dianying!"
51 Ending and Hug
The pure land of one mind at this moment is difficult to describe with concrete words.
The bright, clear sky, the dilapidated torii buildings, the wasteland, the swords stuck on the ground, these things that are hard to associate together are now strangely mixed together, and they are even indistinguishable from each other.
This is indeed the case. After unfolding the mental landscape, Xie Yan discovered that things were beyond his expectations... He and Ying's Pure Land of One Mind seemed to have some subtle connection, and they could even feel each other's emotions.
Is it because of the particularity of mental landscape?
The erosion between the mental images and landscapes was beyond his expectations, but Xie Yan didn't think too much about it. It was already very good to be able to unleash the infinite sword system in the Pure Land of One Mind.
In addition, except for the beginning, he didn't feel any resistance, as if... Ying gave up on his own.
"So, you are a little shaken, right?"
Xie Yan didn't believe that Ying, the winner of the Demon War, would be frightened by the changes in Yi Xin Pure Land. She must have felt something when the two people's mental images and landscapes intersected, which was why she acted like that.
If she hadn't paused for a moment, her right elbow would have been chopped off like a certain street lamp king.
She was just escaping, escaping the grief of her friend's death, escaping the responsibility of being a god, and walking on the road of what she thought was eternity. But in fact, she was not unaware of [Shuyu], because this was the dream pursued by her sister, Raiden Zhen, and the former Raiden Dianying had been guarding this dream until the nightmares came one after another.
When Xie Yan drew his sword, she did not make any response. She looked into the distance, as if she saw something else through the scenery of infinite swordsmanship.
That is... the wish that resides within the Infinite Blade System.
Others might not be able to do it, but how could Ying, who was able to drive the power of will, not be able to see it? However, she had never thought that she would face her people in this form... As Xie Yan said, since she took over the position of the God of Thunder from Lei Dianzhen, she has been avoiding it and has not cast a glance at her people for a long time.
but--
Feeling these people who are so simple and so plain, and who are still full of trust and faith in her even when they are so oppressed, Lei Dianying can no longer describe her feelings at this moment... She really wants to escape again like before, locking herself in a pure land of one mind, or be even more ruthless and directly expel Xie Yan's infinite sword system so that she won't be bothered by it. She continues to hypnotize herself that if she doesn't move forward, she won't lose.
However--
I can't do it. I can't do it no matter what.
This is not the power of one or two people, but the power of all the Inagi people on Narukami Island. Faced with the people who trust her so much, she cannot erase these wishes, nor can she numb herself with words like "exceptions".
She could no longer sit in the castle tower and look down at the world as she did before.
She was probably really wrong. As a warrior, she actually chose to escape for hundreds of years. If there hadn't been such a person today who rushed all the way to the Pure Land of One Heart and gave up the position of the disciple who was second only to the emperor, she might have continued to escape.
Just as she had not urged Xie Yan before, Xie Yan, who had sensed her emotions, did not urge her now, and the two of them remained in a state of confrontation.
It was Lei Dianying who broke the silence first.
"Your mental landscape won't last long, will it? I can feel that the power of God's Heart is only half."
"indeed so."
Ying was silent for a moment, then raised his dream again: "Then, as you said, use the wishes of the Inami people to verify my eternity. I will give you this opportunity."
She said to herself, if you can do it.
As soon as the words fell, the originally bright and clear sky was half covered by dark clouds, presenting a situation of intertwining with each other.
Ying is not unkind or unreasonable, nor is she the kind of person who refuses to admit her mistakes. To her, if she is shaken, she is shaken, and there is no need to deny it.
But this is far from enough to make her give up the eternity she has defended for 500 years, and she cannot be sure that the wishes of her people are the right path for Inazuma. The shadow of the destruction of Kanreya still lingers in her heart. She cannot imagine the pain of her people being cursed by heaven. This is something that is absolutely not allowed to happen.
Since neither she nor Xie Yan is good at speaking, then let's use the most ancient way of Inazuma and speak with the sword in her hand... But this duel is different, this battle will affect Inazuma's future.
Before he finished his words, Xie Yan had already turned into a flash of lightning, slashing down with a sword in hand.
The shadow did not move, but just raised the sword slightly to block the sword.
The two weapons collided, and countless sparks flew from the blades. But how could an ordinary sword resist the dream of Isshin, a weapon made by God? It was cut off almost instantly.
Xie Yan's arm went numb from the shock, and the broken sword flew in the air.
Dreams are swung down again.
Xie Yan did not panic, but took out a new sword from his hand to block.
The second sword broke again.
He simply held two swords.
