Genshin Impact: The Sharpshooter of Teyvat

When the boat carrying Kamisato Ayato and Yae Kamiko slowly approached the shore, Shao Yun was already standing on the shore waiting for them.

He opened his arms excitedly and greeted them warmly: "Long time no see, Mr. Ayato! And Ms. Kamiko, welcome to Kujo Jinya. Although this is no longer a military camp of the shogunate army, it is still full of history and stories."

Kamisato Ayato responded with a smile after getting off the boat.

"Hello, Mr. Shao Yun. I thought you would refuse our arrival."

Shao Yun lowered his arm, waved gently, and said, "Don't worry, I won't be so ruthless. Come on, let's go in together. The air at the seaside is not fresh enough."

After saying that, he turned around and led the way, leading the two into the nine-row formation house.

The rebel soldiers watched Kamisato Ayato and Yae Kamiko vigilantly at their posts, with a hint of alertness in their eyes.

However, since Shao Yun had previously told Zheping to keep everyone calm, the rebels did not show excessive hostility and just silently observed the two uninvited guests.

Shao Yun led Kamisato Ayato and Yae Kamiko into the Kujo Formation House and walked to the camp where the former commander of the shogunate army was located.

He asked the rebels to repair the big hole in the roof, and the other items in the house remained basically unchanged, except for the table that was split by Kujo Sala, which was really unusable.

When Shao Yun sat on the chair, he said straight to the point: "Stop talking nonsense. What's the matter between you two? If you just come here to reminisce, I can ask the resistance army to make something delicious." Kamisato Ayato, who was sitting opposite Shao Yun, saw that Shao Yun didn't want to waste time, so he spoke frankly.

"Mr. Shao Yun, you are still so direct. Well, let's get straight to the point. Can the shogunate and Kaijima reach a truce?"

Shao Yun shook his head and said, "No."

Kamisato Ayato frowned and asked, "Why?"

Shao Yun had already dismissed the rebels, so he said directly: "I want to use the war to create a sense of urgency, just like the atmosphere when Orobas marched east to Inazuma a thousand years ago, to force Baalzebub to come out of the Pure Land, and then chop off her head. It's that simple."

Kamisato Ayato was silent for a moment, then said, "But the war has caused too much damage. It has brought huge losses to both the people of Inazuma and Inazuma. Is there no other way?"

Shao Yun shook his head firmly and said, "As long as I kill Baalzebub, I promise that the war will end in the next second!"

Seeing that there was no hope of a ceasefire, Kamisato Ayato knew that there was no other way and had to settle for the next best thing.

He looked at Shao Yun solemnly and said earnestly, "Mr. Shao Yun, please listen to me. You may not understand the true situation of Mingshen Island now."

"On the day after you captured the Kujo Jinya, which is today, the number of yamas in the wild suddenly increased. They are active on the road from the island to Inazuma Castle. The Tenryo Bugyo has difficulty maintaining the law and order on Narugami Island."

"If you continue to attack Ming Shen Island, the consequences will be disastrous. I sincerely ask you to stop fighting for the time being. I am willing to pay 10 billion Mora in exchange for a period of peace. What do you think?"

After hearing Kamisato Ayato's frank words, Shao Yun suddenly understood.

It turns out that this is the famine crisis that the tall-hat man mentioned that Narukami Island might face.

Looking back, when the Tenryo Bugyo had not yet suffered such huge casualties, "Kurisu" of the International Chamber of Commerce had been robbed by the Nobushige in Inazuma Castle and White Fox Field.

Nowadays, those lurking people must be even more arrogant and domineering.

Once Inazuma Castle becomes an "isolated island", supplies from the outlying islands cannot be transported in, which will inevitably lead to a serious food shortage problem...

Although the temptation of 10 billion is tempting, he has a wealth of more than 50 billion.

More importantly, he doesn't have much time to waste, and the task of killing Thor must be completed as soon as possible.

The people of Mingshen Island can only suffer.

So Shao Yun shook his head helplessly and replied calmly: "This condition is indeed very tempting, but I really can't agree to it. As I said before, Baalzebub must die, otherwise this war will not stop."

Just as Kamisato Ayato was about to continue persuading him, Yae Shinko beside him suddenly said, "Mr. Ayato, could you please leave for a moment? I have something to talk to Mr. Shao Yun alone."

After hesitating for a moment, Kamisato Ayato finally left the room silently.

At this moment, only Yajyou Shenzi and Shao Yun were left in the room.

Yae Shinko pursed her lips slightly, and then whispered: "Kamisato Ayato was here just now, so there are some things I can't say."

"Now there are only two of us, Mr. Shao Yun, I beg you, as long as you don't kill Ying, I will agree to any request you make. I can even give you the power to kill anyone at will in Inazuma, this is the truth!"

The implication of this sentence is that if Shao Yun is willing to give up the pursuit of Ying, then he can do whatever he wants in Inazuma City, even if it means reducing the entire city to ruins.

Her only wish is for Ying to live safely.

Shao Yun scoffed at what Yae Shen Zi proposed, thinking, what a joke you are, you fox! Do you need others' approval to kill someone you want?

Everything he is doing now is to kill Baalzebub. The conditions you proposed are simply nonsense.

Shao Yun knocked on the table hard and said in a bad tone: "I only want Baalzebub's head, I don't want anything else! Either you help me, or you stay in your fox temple and don't come out."

Yae Shenzi persuaded again: "Ying did do a lot of wrong things, but I will find a way to make her..."

Shao Yun interrupted impatiently: "Just like you said, Lingren was here just now, and I don't want to say anything too absolute."

"In fact, I don't care what Inazuma will become in the end! Everything I do is to kill the Thunder God. I will kill anyone who dares to stop me."

"I'll give you the best suggestion. After I kill the Thunder God, you will become the Third Thunder God, and then let the Kamisato family unify the 'Three Priesthoods'. This way, the entire Inazuma can return to peace."

After that, Shao Yun added: "However, if you want to stop me, don't blame me for being rude."

Seeing that Shao Yun was determined to kill Ying, Yae Shen Zi knew that it was useless to say more.

She now had a bold idea in her mind, which was to kill Shao Yun by surprise.

As long as he can kill him, Ying can survive.

The Eightfold God Son narrowed his eyes and looked at Shao Yun, and asked unkindly: "What if I want to stop you?"

When Shao Yun heard this, his eyes became cold and ruthless, and he almost instantly turned into an emotionless killing machine.

He quickly pulled out the cowboy revolver from his waist and pointed the muzzle steadily at Yae Miko's face.

"Then Ying will have an extra pink fox hat!"

His voice was low and gloomy, carrying an irresistible intimidation.

A trace of anger flashed in Yae Shenzi's eyes. She clenched her fists tightly and stared at the black muzzle of the gun in Shao Yun's hand.

Shao Yun's weapon made her feel unprecedented pressure and fear.

However, she did not back down, but gritted her teeth and tried to stay calm.

Shao Yun's eyes swept over the earrings of Yae Shenzi and found that the Eye of God inlaid on them had begun to glow slightly, indicating that she was preparing to use elemental power to fight against herself.

Shao Yun shook his head slightly and advised her.

"You can't beat me, there's no need to die with you for Baalzebul."

The two of them confronted each other like this, and in the end, Yae Shen Zi compromised first. After all, she was not completely sure that she could kill Shao Yun.

If she were still alive, she would have a chance to continue dealing with Shao Yun, but now that she is dead, there is no hope at all.

She sighed helplessly and asked, "Will Ying agree to you doing this?"

She tried to use Ying to dissuade Shao Yun, but Shao Yun was not fooled and directly exposed the thoughts of the Eightfold Son of God.

"I know what you want to say. You want to threaten me with Ying, but don't bother. I sent Ying away a long time ago. She went to Haizhi Island with Paimon to handle affairs."

He paused, and then continued, "Besides, I didn't tell her the truth. By the time she found out, Baalzebub would have been dead, and she would have nothing to say."

After hearing this, Yae Shinko could not help but nod sadly and sighed, "I see. I didn't expect you to be more cunning than a fox. Well, since you insist on killing the Thunder God, as a follower of the Thunder God, I will wait for you in Inazuma Castle."

"But before I leave, can you agree to one request of mine?"

Seeing that the matter was over, Shao Yun put away the cowboy revolver in his hand, nodded slightly, and said calmly: "Go ahead."

Yaejinko took a deep breath and explained, "Tomorrow, I want to organize the miko of Narugami Taisha to clean up the bodies of the shogunate soldiers in the sea between Narugami Island and Tadashi Sand. Is that okay?"

Shao Yun nodded in agreement, but still asked, "How long will it take?"

Yae Shinko thought for a moment and replied, "It depends on the specific situation. It will probably take about a week."

Hearing this answer, Shao Yun sneered and said, "I'll give you a week. By then, Ying will have helped the people of Haizhi Island to hold the Haizhi Royal Spirit Ceremony."

"Are you still planning to salvage the bodies one by one? Why not just use two boats, tie a fishing net in the middle, and pull all the bodies to the shore like fishing?"

"If two ships are not enough, use four or eight. I will only give you one day! The day after tomorrow, I will do everything I can to sink any ship that appears on the sea!"

Faced with Shao Yun's resolute attitude, Yae Shenzi nodded helplessly and said, "Okay."

……

Yae Shinko slowly stood up and walked out of the room slowly.

At this moment, Kamisato Ayato, who was standing at the door, was about to ask what was going on, but Yae Kamiko shook her head gently, indicating that there was no need to say more.

Kamisato Ayato understood instantly. He knew that the two of them coming here today did not play any role.

Immediately afterwards, Shao Yun walked Kamisato Ayato and Yae Kamiko to the beach, and watched quietly as the two boarded the small boat they came in.

Yae Shinto sat steadily on the boat, turned his head and gazed deeply at Shao Yun, with a hint of regret and helplessness in his eyes.

Finally, she tried to persuade him earnestly once more: "Can't we discuss it again? I can do everything I can to make Ying kneel down in front of Ying and apologize to her."

However, Shao Yun did not hesitate to refute: "Do you think this is possible? Will the great Thunder God kneel down and apologize? I don't believe it."

Yae Shinko knew that this was an unattainable wish, so he responded calmly: "It is indeed unlikely..."

Seeing this, Shao Yun waved his hand and spoke casually.

"In that case, there is no need to say more. I suggest you go back and think carefully about your future path."

"Don't die for Baalzebul anymore. You should consider the various matters after becoming the third generation Thunder God. You won't have much time to take care of your Yaedou in the future."

Yae Shinko then asked, "Excuse me, Mr. Shao Yun, when will you attack Narukami Island so that I can arrange with Ayato for the people of Inazuma Castle to take refuge."

Shao Yun scratched his head, thought for a moment and then replied, "Hmm... let me think about it. It's probably after the false news that Orobasi came to seek revenge on the Thunder God spreads throughout Inazuma City."

"I will then see if Baalzebub will come out of the Pure Land of One Heart. If she doesn't move, I will charge straight into Narukami Island."

Yae Shinko gave a bitter smile, shook his head helplessly and said, "So, it's already very fast?"

Shao Yun nodded in agreement and added: "That's about right. Let's calculate it according to the three days you Inazuma people like."

After saying that, Shao Yun turned and walked towards the Kujo Formation House. Yae Kamiko and Kamisato Ayato took a boat back to Ming Shen Island.

……

On the way back to Narukami Island by boat, Yae Kamiko looked quietly at the castle tower in the distance, with a hint of worry in her eyes.

Suddenly, she turned her head and looked at Kamisato Ayato who was rowing the boat, and said in a serious tone: "The future Inazuma will be handed over to your Kamisato family."

Kamisato Ayato's movements suddenly stopped. He looked at Yae Shinko in surprise and asked in confusion, "Master Yae, what do you mean by this? Do you think this crisis is very serious?"

Yae Shinko sighed softly, a hint of fatigue flashed in her eyes, but she still maintained a smile.

"Shao Yun is determined to kill Ying. As a follower of the Thunder God, I have no right and no reason to hide aside and watch. When Shao Yun is about to take Ying's life, I will stand in front of Ying."

"My funeral doesn't need to be too lavish, just prepare a few plates of fried tofu for me. When you offer sacrifices to me in the future, just burn some of the best novels from Yaedo in each issue for me."

A rare expression of surprise appeared on Kamisato Ayato's face. He opened his eyes wide and looked at everything in front of him in disbelief.

Yae Shinko's current behavior is simply arranging funeral affairs! Has the situation really reached such a serious point?

"Master Yae, perhaps we can think of some other solutions? How about I send the members of the Final Division to go to Kaijima to find Ying?"

Kamisato Ayato wanted to try harder, but Yae Kamiko slowly shook her head with a look of despair on her face.

"Even if we find Ying, what can we do? I can feel that Shao Yun's killing intent towards Ying is unstoppable."

"As a follower of Kage, if I can't protect Kage, I don't deserve to live in this world. The future Inazuma can only rely on your Kamisato family to protect her..."
