Original God's Dark Priest

Perhaps Goro's sincerity and honesty touched Kujo Sara. After a little thought, Kujo Sara decided to give some practical help. So she said, "Very insightful. Her opponent is good at deception. If you see a sad face on the other side, you must not be careless. It may be a trap to lure you into."

"I don't know why, but I always feel a little bit uncomfortable when I see Sara and Goro caring about each other." Little Paimon felt a strange feeling in his heart.

Saphir glanced at her and said nothing. If she had not intervened, the two would have met on the battlefield and fought to the death. But now, they had not fought, which made little Paimon feel uneasy.

Kujo Sara didn't think too much about it, just shook his head: "Don't get me wrong, this is for fairness. Ever since I saw the name of the military advisor on the list of participants, I knew that she would most likely enter the finals and become the opponent of the general.

I watched every one of her matches. This military strategist has many different tactics and is good at using surprising strategies. After the general's defeat, I'm afraid that this information has also fallen into the ears of the palace chief."

Kujo Sara told him the reason honestly, and Paimon was quite moved after hearing it: "Wow... So you don't want Xinhai to suffer from the loss of information? Such an upright behavior, worthy of Sara."

Honest? Kujo Sara laughed at herself in her heart, it was just that her preference had been eliminated, so she could act so objectively.

This is human nature, and no one would think there is anything wrong with her doing this.

Goro nodded seriously and replied, "Thank you Miss Kujo for your reminder! I will pass it on to Lord Coral Palace."

"Nothing. It's getting late. Let's go call the military advisor back." Kujo Sara looked at the sun and estimated that the time for the finals was approaching, so he urged Goro to go find the heart sea of ​​the Coral Palace.

Wu Lang immediately agreed upon hearing this: "Well, I'll take my leave first."

After saying that, he ran away without looking back. Ying and Little Paimon also pulled Saphir and followed him away.

Safir really wanted to say that he could run and didn't want to be held back, but Ying seemed to not want him to run away and didn't let go of his hand all the way.

Soon, they arrived at the coast. On the beach coast dominated by green and yellow, Coral Palace Xinhai's pink outfit was very eye-catching.

Little Paimon spotted the figure of Xinhai in Coral Palace at a glance, flew over quickly, and called out, "Xinhai!"

At the same time as little Paimon shouted, the sponge in front of the Coral Palace's heart sea suddenly rippled, as if something was sinking rapidly.

Saphir glanced at the sea and understood, but she was a little surprised by the scale of the waves, because it seemed a little too big.

Coral Palace Xinhai turned around and looked at the people who came over with a smile on his face: "Paimon, Ying, and... Lord Saphir."

"Eh? Why are you calling me like that?" Xiao Pai scratched his head.

Coral Palace Xinhai shook his head slightly, without explaining, and asked: "Long time no see, what are you doing here?"

Little Paimon's attention was diverted immediately. She smiled and said, "Hey, are you surprised? We are here to cheer you on!"

Ying also nodded.

Little Paimon looked at the sponge whose ripples had not yet subsided, and was a little confused: "What is Xinhai doing here? Are you here to see the sea?"

"Well, the soothing sound of waves can calm people's mood. I came here originally to see the islands in the distance." Coral Palace Xinhai's eyes were slightly evasive and he casually gave a reason.

Upon hearing this, Little Paimeng immediately turned to the direction that the Coral Palace Heart Sea was originally facing, and was very interested: "Hey, are there any islands in the distance? Let me take a look..."

She looked into the distance. The endless sea reflected the blue sky. The vast view connected the sea level and the skyline, but she could no longer see anything further.

Because if you go further, you will enter the dark sea, and naturally you can't see anything.

"How is it, did you see anything?" Coral Palace Xinhai asked softly.

Little Paimon looked for several seconds, and finally shook his head: "Well... I can't see anything, but I just think the scenery is good, the sky is so blue, and the sea is so vast."

"Yes, with such a broad vision and scenery, everything you see is full of emotion and shock. But even with such a picture, when it comes to your mouth, it is nothing more than a description of the sea and sky being one color." Coral Palace sighed lightly.

She had discussed a lot with Oropas just now. Oropas said that if Haizhi Island wanted to be independent, it was far from enough to just solve the food problem.

The food problem was solved after Orobasi reversed the sanctification of the land. Although the land on Haizhi Island is not fertile, it has a certain grain output, enough to be self-sufficient.

However, Oropus poured cold water on her again, saying that Teyvat was currently under the rule of the Seven Gods. If it wanted to break away from the rule of Thor, it must choose a camp of gods. This was not surrender, but protecting itself.

Kaijima does not have the strength to remain unshakable in the face of wind and rain.

Without the protection of the Thunder God, they could not survive.

But the faith of Haizhi Island has never been the Thunder God. Coral Palace Xinhai knows this very well.

Orobasi did not say it explicitly, but from his attitude, Coral Palace Xinhai guessed that even though Haizhi Island did not believe in Thor, Thor had always chosen to protect it.

The shelter here does not refer to the protection of the people, but giving them an identity, the identity of Inazuma people.

Despite their different beliefs, they are still the people of Inazuma. Thunder God is the god of Inazuma, so Kaijima is also the legitimate people of the Seven Gods.

This was what Oropas earned by dying thousands of years ago.

Now, because he was resurrected, the people of Haizhi Island had some inappropriate thoughts, which made Coral Palace a little worried.

Knowing this, Oropas decided that it would be best if he could come here with her this time and explain things clearly in front of Baal and Baalzebub.

He has always known that Haizhi Island has a way out, but Coral Palace Xinhai may not be willing to accept that option.

So, just now Oropas told the other party what he had never said before, which was the reason why he was able to return.

"Heart Sea..." Perhaps feeling the heavy mood of Coral Palace's Heart Sea, little Paimon also felt a little lost.

Coral Palace Xinhai blinked his eyes and forced a smile: "Ahem, sorry, I was thinking about something else without realizing it."

"You came here this time not just to play cards, but also for some other things, right?" Ying spoke.

Ying had never been involved in the dispute between the shogunate and Kaijima, so he didn't have a deep understanding of it. In fact, Saphir was handling matters in this regard.

Coral Palace Xinhai nodded, then looked at Saphir, seeming to be hesitant to speak.

"Eh? What do you mean?" Little Paimon was not smart to begin with, and now when she was told these things she had never understood before, she was suddenly confused.

Wu Lang explained, "Winning or losing is not the most important thing. What's important is that Lord Coral Palace came here to play cards under the spotlight of the people."

"Well, this world is huge. Some small gains have made us who are living in a corner think that many things are too simple. I hope to express a meaning by coming here." Coral Palace Xinhai breathed a sigh of relief, "Our Kaiji Island will not break away from Inazuma, and will deepen the connection with Narukami Island."

This is what Coral Palace thinks.

She has never been an independent person. As the leader of Haizhi Island, she knows that she cannot and is not qualified to talk about independence. It's just that the ambitions of some people in Haizhi Island have begun to expand and it is difficult to suppress them.

She had to do something to convey her thoughts to the outside world, especially to Saphir and Ying.

She knew very well in her heart that if she could establish a good relationship with either Saphir or Ying, it would be of great benefit to Haizhi Island.

She, the Coral Palace, really has no ambitions in her heart. She only cares about the survival of Haizhi Island. As for the voices that may have reached their ears, they are just the nonsense of fools.

In other words, she actually came to show her loyalty.

Her words made Oropus who was hiding in the water unable to hold back. He poked his head out of the water and said, "Girl! That's not what you said at the beginning!"

Oropas was annoyed. This guy actually plotted against him. If he had known from the beginning that Coral Palace Xinhai had this plan, he wouldn't have made this trip.

He was worried that this girl might say something she shouldn't say here and might get into danger, so he risked being caught and punished. Now that he knew about this, he felt that he had really done something unnecessary.

But he regretted it as soon as he said it, because the half-smile on Saphir's face said it all.

Kaijima chose Inazuma, which was not a good thing for the Fatui.

It is impossible to separate Yuanxia Palace and Kaiji Island. What Xinhai of Coral Palace did is equivalent to completely exposing the retreat route arranged by Saphir in Inazuma under the nose of the Thunder God, which is considered to be blocking someone's retreat.

With Saphir's status, he naturally wouldn't bother with this little girl, but Orobas...

"Your little witch is very good. Come, let's practice." After saying that, Saphir jumped into the water, and Oropas sank without saying a word.

The two disappeared, and Coral Palace Xinhai stared blankly at the sea surface which was still bubbling, feeling a little at a loss.

In fact, she really didn't want to offend Saphir, she just didn't want to ruin the relationship with Ming Shen Island. In her opinion, the entire Yuanxia Palace was Saphir's territory, and Haizhi Island, located above Yuanxia Palace, should have been a member of the same front with her for a long time.

She didn't expect Safir to have such a big reaction, which made her a little overwhelmed.

Coral Palace suddenly felt uneasy and didn't know what to do.

Seeing this, Ying smiled nonchalantly and said reassuringly, "Don't worry, Xinhai. Saphir is definitely not angry."

"That's right, if she were angry she definitely wouldn't look like this," little Paimon agreed.

In fact, she had never really seen Safire get angry.

But she and Ying were very sure that Saphir would not get angry easily. If he was really angry, it would definitely be a very terrible thing, and they could not do such a thing.

That's right, they have a good self-awareness and firmly believe that with their small status, they can't do anything to make that guy angry.

Coral Palace Xinhai nodded doubtfully. In fact, her original intention was good. She also wanted to maintain the stability of the situation in Inazuma as much as possible. However, the increase in grain production on Kaiji Island stimulated the ambitions of some people, which made her aware of the crisis. If this situation was not handled, it would sooner or later lead to a disaster.

Didn't Safire understand her?

She understood, but she hadn't seen Orobas for a long time, and she wanted to find a reason to beat him up.

After such a long time, Orobasi has become much stronger and seems to be able to withstand more beatings. If we don't fight him now, when will we fight him?

In the sea, Orobas was being chased and jumping up and down. If it weren't for his identity as a sea demon that made him much more agile than Saphir in the water, he would have probably been killed.

Saphir beat him without mercy. He had no idea how many snake scales had been plucked out. Oropas felt very bitter. He swears to God that he never instigated the Coral Palace's heart. All this was the other party's own thoughts and choices. It had nothing to do with him!

He tried desperately to explain, but Saphir wouldn't listen. He pulled the scales on his back and beat him, showing no respect at all.

Oropas, who was screaming and screaming after being beaten, finally couldn't bear it anymore. He jumped up from the sea and came into the air. Then he was tied up tightly by Saphir with the Netherworld Chain and couldn't move.

Seeing Orobas being subdued, Coral Palace Xinhai became even more frightened, and she began to wonder if her actions today were too reckless. Just as she was about to plead for Orobas, Saphir shook her wet hair and waved her hand, interrupting her.

"The unification of Inazuma on the surface is very important. You made the right choice." Saphir stroked her high ponytail that was still dripping with water and said, "This is the best solution for Kaiji Island. It's just that you are a little impatient."

"Impatient?" Coral Palace Xinhai was a little confused. It was not that she did not understand what Safir meant, but in her opinion, Haizhi Island was sandwiched between two forces, trembling with fear and treading on thin ice. She had no room for error and naturally could not take risks.

She was indeed very thoughtful, but she overlooked one problem.

"Your general direction is correct, but you underestimated the stability of Inazuma's current environment, and also underestimated my ability." Saphir bent down and twisted her trouser legs. Seawater dripped down from her, and her expression was a little regretful. "You could have pretended not to know, or pretended to cater to her, lured her out of her hole, and finally caught her in one fell swoop."

Ying immediately understood Safir's idea: "If we alert the enemy now, they will hide again!"

"Yes, it is dangerous. We can only be safe if we completely eliminate it. If you just use it, it doesn't matter, but you are the leader of Haizhi Island. This is everything to you. How can you tolerate the restless guy to continue lurking?" Saphir sighed after he finished speaking.

Xinhai missed a great opportunity to eliminate dissidents. She could have borrowed Saphir's knife to annihilate those who were still unwilling to submit, but now, this opportunity was lost.

Coral Palace Xinhai also understood what Safir meant. She lowered her head and stammered, "I never thought of troubling Lord Safir."

"Don't bother me. You can also discuss it with Valentina. She will be happy to cooperate with you." Safier was quite troubled by this somewhat stubborn girl.

She actually doesn't care about being used at all. As long as her interests are not violated in the end, Safire is happy to be a knife in the hands of others.

Thinking of this, Safir shook his head again: "Forget it, maybe my attitude towards you has been rather distant from the beginning, so it's reasonable for you not to believe me."

“No…” Coral Palace Xinhai’s rebuttal seemed a little pale.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that because Safir's policy towards Haizhi Island was too strong, Coral Palace Xinhai was very wary of Safir. Although Safir had gained a lot of benefits for Haizhi Island, her attitude was there, so it was normal for Coral Palace Xinhai not to trust her.

"I've said everything I need to say. Can you please let me go?" Oropas muttered bitterly in the air.

Safir rolled his eyes and ignored him, instead continuing to say to Coral Palace Xinhai: "This time you made a stupid move, don't be so reckless in the future."

"There won't be a next time." Coral Palace Xinhai said seriously.

Seeing that she didn't seem to understand what he meant, Safire added, "It's the same at the poker table. You have to beat that scumbag fox to a pulp."

"So that's what happened..." Coral Palace Xinhai slapped his forehead and smiled awkwardly, "Speaking of which, I have always been interested in military tactics. I will not lose in a card game that tests strategies."

She spoke with great confidence, and at this moment the heart of the Coral Palace seemed to glow.

Little Paimon was also infected: "Hey, you better be careful of that fox woman. Even Sara said she is cunning and scheming."

Wu Lang now barely understood what Coral Palace Xinhai meant this time. Although he still didn't quite understand why Saphir suddenly looked angry and suddenly began to encourage Coral Palace Xinhai, this did not prevent him from cheering Coral Palace Xinhai very seriously: "Master Coral Palace must be more careful, the general did say such a thing."

"Well, don't worry. For this game of cards, I have already thought of countermeasures for various situations." Coral Palace Xinhai is still very confident in his card skills.

Little Paimon also began to look forward to it after hearing this: "Wow, I feel more and more excited." As she spoke, she shook her head vigorously, "No, no, I have to watch this game no matter what! Nothing can pull me away! Not even the aroma of the snack stand!"

"Good luck in the finals." Ying gave Coral Palace Xinhai a final word of encouragement.

Coral Palace was encouraged, and the heavy stone in her heart was put down. At this moment, she felt that she was in a very good state, so she said, "Well, thank you. Let's go."
