Yes, Lady Funina!

The Isshin Pure Land, which had become tattered by the aftermath of the battle, also began to recover slowly. The crushed earth and the cracked torii gates were all returned to their original appearance under the great force.

Perhaps reminded by Richard's previous words, Yi Xin Pure Land did not return to the desolate and broken scene when it first entered. The re-erected torii was no longer crooked, but became neat and tidy, and the ground under the feet was free of dirt and dust, and looked spotless.

"As punishment for failure, I will abolish the Eye Hunting Order." Shadow lowered his head and said to Richard.

"Snapped."

Richard flicked his finger and hit Ying's head on the bright and clean forehead.

Ying did not put her hands up to cover her head. To her, this beating was no different from a mosquito bite. She just looked up at Richard in surprise, not understanding why he did this.

"When did I ever say that the penalty for failure was the revocation of the Eye Hunt?"

"That voice just now wasn't..."

"That is the wish of your people, not mine."

"The wishes of my people." Ying was silent. After a moment, she raised her head again and asked, "What is your wish?"

"My wish..." Richard set his sights on Ying.

Ying felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by Richard. She unconsciously reached out to smooth the hair by her ears, feeling a little nervous.

Could it be that Richard's wish was for himself? Hadn't he already chosen the Son of God? Or... did he want both?

Isn’t that too greedy?

I don’t care, after all, this is the punishment for defeat, but what about the Son of God?

Is it possible to challenge the Son of God to another duel? It seems possible...

Ying's thoughts inevitably began to diverge with the pauses between Richard's words, and the more she thought, the more she deviated, gradually moving in the direction of R18.

"I hope Ying won't stay in the Pure Land of One Mind forever."

"...G?" Ying looked at Richard blankly, as if to say, is this the only wish you have?

"I hope you can go out more often instead of locking yourself up in a pure land."

"What about the Eye Hunting Order?"

"I've already said that that's the wish of the Inado people, not mine. Whether or not you fulfill this wish depends entirely on you." Richard would not force Ying to make any decision.

For Yu Ying, if she wants to get out of her paranoia, the only one she can rely on is herself. Even Richard can only provide some necessary guidance, but it is impossible for him to do it himself and force her to get back on track.

"I understand." Ying was not stupid and could naturally perceive the intention of Richard's action.

"So...what's your answer?"

"I will go out for a walk, and as for the Eye Hunting Order... it will also be abolished." Ying replied.

"That's good." Richard nodded and returned the [Dream of Oneness] in his hand to Ying.

Ying took [Dream One Heart] and couldn't help but ask, "What about you?"

What will you do after I come out of the Pure Land of One Mind?

Ying felt that Richard would live a carefree life with Yae Shinko, just like an ordinary couple, living in seclusion in the mountains and not caring about worldly affairs.

This is good, but for some reason Ying couldn't be happy at all, especially after seeing Richard in person, the scene of him kissing Yae Shinko seemed to appear before his eyes.

She had mixed feelings in her heart, and even Ying herself didn't realize that when she asked this question, her slender eyebrows were already furrowed.

After hearing Ying's question, Richard showed a matter-of-fact expression and said:

"Me? I will naturally hurry up to complete my diplomatic mission, and then return to Fontaine to continue working."

"G?"

Volume 141: Chapter He Wants It All

At the Eye Hunting Ceremony, as General Raiden pulled Richard into the One-Minded Pure Land, only Yae Kamiko, Kujo Sara and Kujo Takayuki were left in front of the Thousand-Armed Hundred-Eyed Statue.

Although Kujo Takayuki felt extremely regretful that he could not witness the Shogun's [Unintentional Sword] with his own eyes, the ending was already determined.

Although he was suspected of colluding with the Faintheads and deceiving the Holy One, it was obvious that the Eightfold Divine Son was in greater trouble.

Richard's fight with the General was, at the very least, an attempt to assassinate the General, and at the most, Fontaine's attempt to interfere in Inazuma's internal affairs. Yae Shenzi, who had a close relationship with Richard, was naturally to blame.

He will definitely not be able to escape the charge of being a guide, and even Yae Miko, the chief priest of Narukami Taisha Shrine, will find it difficult to get away with this charge.

Thinking of this, Kujo Takayuki's originally unhappy mood suddenly improved a lot, and he even began to consider whether there was room for maneuver.

"Master Yae, you have seen the current situation. Rather than both sides suffering losses and letting others reap the benefits, I think we have another way."

Kujo Takayuki is ready to make peace with Yae Kami. Although Yae Kami's troubles seem to be bigger, Yae Kami is ultimately a follower of Narukami, and his relationship with Narukami is not something that they, the ministers, can compare to.

For Yae Kamiko, some things can be punished by drinking a cup, but for Kujo Takayuki, it may be very serious.

In this case, shaking hands and making peace and overcoming difficulties together is obviously a better choice for Kujo Takayuki and the Kujo family behind him.

As for how to overcome difficulties together, we just need to use the magic of language a little bit.

For example, Kujo Takayuki colluded with the Fatui to implement the "Eye Hunting Order". It can be said that he was deceived by the Fatui. He was not greedy for the benefits promised by the other party. He had no idea about the benefits promised by the Fatui. They were all done by his temporary subordinates.

As for reporting good news but not bad news in the official document, it was because he believed that Tianling Fengxing could handle the small-scale rebellion himself, and there was no need to alarm the general about such a small matter.

In short, there are as many excuses as one can want. All that is needed is that the Eightfold Divine Son is willing to speak with one voice. With Kujo Takayuki's many years of experience in deceiving the emperor, there is a great chance that a big matter can be reduced to a small one.

After hearing what Kujo Takayuki said, Yae Shinko looked a little strange.

"Both sides suffer?"

"Of course. Could it be that Lord Yae thinks that the Shogun cannot take down the Fontaine envoy?" Kujo Takayuki said this and looked at Kujo Sara.

"Sa Luo, I must correct you. I did not betray the General. Those Fatui were just used by me. What can they do?"

"In Inazuma's land, once the thunder falls, they are just trembling ants, and they will never dare to cause trouble."

"That envoy from Fontaine will probably soon be killed by the general."

At this point, Kujo Takayuki felt like he was Zhuge Liang in the world. He stroked his beard with great pride and said condescendingly with the attitude of a winner: "I think Lord Yae-no-miyaji should make plans early. Cooperating with the Kujo family and severing ties with Fontaine is the best strategy to protect himself."

However, before Kujo Takayuki could finish his words, he saw the Thousand-Armed and Hundred-Eyed Statue in the center of the venue suddenly emit a bright light, and the ninety-nine eyes of God embedded in the statue sparkled and bloomed with dazzling brilliance.

The three people at the scene, including the onlookers who had already evacuated one kilometer away from the venue, all witnessed such a miraculous scene.

Seeing this, Kujo Takayuki became even more excited. He said in a firm tone: "The general is going to take real action. This Thousand-armed and Hundred-eyed statue is the best proof."

It was almost as if he had directly said that Richard's life was already a candle in the wind.

"Is there a possibility that the one who activated the Thousand-Armed and Hundred-Eyed Statue was not the General you mentioned, but Richard?"

After seeing the light shining from the statue, Yae Shinto finally showed a faint smile on his face.

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

Kujo Takayuki felt that the Son of God Yae might have gone insane. This statue of a thousand hands and a hundred eyes was clearly built under the order of the general. What did it have to do with Richard?

Wait! Could it be...

"Kujo Takayuki, you don't really think that in such a short time, your men alone can collect so many God's Eyes from the people, right?"

Kujo Takayuki's face changed drastically. He pointed at Yae Shinto and wanted to say something, but Yae Shinto no longer gave him a chance to speak.

You've been so noisy since just now, just shut up.

A purple lightning bolt fell from the sky and struck Kujo Takayuki, causing him to tremble with electricity.

Considering that Kujo Sara was still present, Yae Shinto's attack did not take the opponent's life.

Kujo Sara looked at Kujo Takayuki, who was lying limp on the ground and shaking from time to time, and did not intend to say anything. After the conversation just now, she had a clear understanding of her own head of the family.

Ever since she was adopted by the Kujo family, the way of loyalty that they taught her was just to make her loyal to the Kujo family, because they were worried that she would betray the Kujo family one day.

The other party only cares about his own interests and the interests of the Kujo family, but he has no loyalty to the Shogun.

"Master Yaejin, the general is over there..."

"Don't worry, Richard knows how to act with moderation."

Kujo Sura:?

Is this what she wanted to ask?

Although Kujo Sara is on the side of Yae Kamiko this time, she, like Kujo Takayuki, does not think that Richard will be a match for General Raiden.

But from what Yae Shen Zi said, it seems that the General is no match for Richard at all?

Isn't this right?

Kujo Sara wanted to say something else, but found that Yae Shinto had disappeared from the spot.

What about people?

"It looks like the duel is over."

The Eightfold Son of God successfully entered the Pure Land of One Heart through Richard as a medium, and stood between Richard and Ying as soon as he appeared.

"You lost, Shadow."

"Yeah, I lost."

Ying was not surprised by the appearance of Yae Shinko and admitted his failure very straightforwardly.

"Since you've already lost, you have to be obedient and stop being so petty."

Because the words of the Eightfold God Child were too fatherly, they were obviously her followers, but they described her pursuit of [Eternity] as being petty, which was the opposite of Tiangang's words. Even Ying couldn't help but refute: "Who is petty!"

"You locked yourself up in your inner world for hundreds of years, and threw Inazuma's mess to me and a puppet who knows nothing. Isn't this just being petty?"

"The general knows a lot, she is not completely ignorant."

"Just knowing some martial arts is not enough to govern a country." Yae Shinto sighed and said.

"Even if you make puppets, why do you want to make your own puppet? Can't you make a puppet like Richard? Not only can it help you govern the country, but I can also use it to relieve my loneliness when necessary."

When Richard heard the fierce words of Yaezun Shenzi, his face suddenly darkened, but Ying at the side seemed to think that what Yaezun Shenzi said made sense.

Yes, why did she think of creating a General Lei Dian instead of a General Richard?

"It's technically impossible. Richard had already left Inazuma at that time. Without his cooperation, the puppets we made would hardly meet the requirements."

"You're really considering it!" Richard complained, "Yae Shenzi is obviously joking."

Ying was stunned. Is that so?

"No kidding, I'm really happy to see you again, Ying."

"Me too, Son of God. I thought I would never have the chance to meet you like this again. Meeting you is a change in eternity... and a pleasant surprise."

"Haha, since you've honestly admitted it, we can still be friends, right?"

Yae Shenzi took Ying's arm again, put his head close to her ear, looked at Richard at the same time, and whispered to Ying: "Ying, we are in trouble."

"Trouble?" Ying was puzzled, thinking that the Eightfold Divine Son was worried about the 'Eye Hunting Order'.

"I will order the revocation of the Eye Hunter Order later, but regarding [Eternity], whether this country should move forward, and how to move forward, I need to think about it again."

"It's not about this!" Yae Shenzi looked at Richard, "It's about that guy."

"Richard?" Ying also looked at Richard. What trouble could he have?

"Me?" Richard pointed at himself, not understanding why the Eightfold Son of God had brought the topic back to himself.

"Because you, Ying, have been in seclusion all the time, someone has been seduced by another god." Yae Shinto put the blame on Ying without hesitation.

And the shadow that was inexplicably put in a big pot was a bit puzzling. It seemed like he was seduced by other gods. What was going on?

"Do you know where this guy Richard works now?"

"Fontaine." Ying said. Richard had just told her that he would go back to Fontaine to continue working.

"The water god of Fontaine is very handsome, not inferior to you. Even if I pledge myself to him, Mr. Richard will never leave him."

Richard heard the gossip of the Eightfold God Son and said unhappily, "God Son, don't talk nonsense. There is nothing wrong between me and Funina."

"Haha, it's just a love story, right?" Yae Shinko raised his finger and pointed at the mark on Richard's right hand. "It's already been stamped by others, so what's the point of talking about innocence?"

Richard looked down at the seal of the contract on his hand. Can this be considered a seal? !

But Richard really had no way to refute anything, because from a secular perspective, he and Funina were probably, possibly, and should not be so innocent.

Although they are not a couple, they can't be considered ordinary friends.

Whose best friend would kiss the forehead?

If we kiss the forehead now, won’t we have to kiss the face, the nose, the mouth, and everywhere in the future?
