With the support of Inashiro Hotaru, Yae Kamiko turned and left, continuing to devote herself to the Kamizakura Purification Ceremony to save Inazuma.

Just at this time, Kamisato Ayaka came hurriedly over with a letter in her hand, obviously having something important to convey.

When Kamisato Ayaka arrived, she ran into Yae Kamiko who was about to leave.

Kamisato Ayaka's attention was immediately attracted by Yae Kamiko's red and swollen peach-like, sad and beautiful eyes.

"Master Yae, why... could this happen?"

In response to Kamisato Ayaka's concerned inquiry, Yae Kamiko just looked at her deeply but did not say a word.

Perhaps because she had shed too many tears before, she could no longer cry out loud at this moment. Only the depressed mood hung over her heart like a dark cloud, making her look extremely haggard.

In the end, Yae Kamiko just quietly drifted away with the support of Inashiro Hotaru.

Kamisato Ayaka watched the receding figure of Yae Shinto, thinking about something in her heart.

Then, she shifted her gaze to Shao Yun, who was sitting next to the castle tower.

After a brief observation and thinking, Kamisato Ayaka had a general understanding of what was happening before her eyes.

So, she walked towards Shao Yun, and when she came to him, she first looked up at the castle tower, then looked down at Shao Yun who was sitting on the ground, and asked softly: "Mr. Shao Yun, am I still a step late?"

There was a hint of regret and helplessness in his words.

Shao Yun raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a half-smile, and asked back: "Oh? If what you mean by 'too late' is to rescue the Thunder God, then it is indeed the case."

Kamisato Ayaka frowned slightly, bit her lip, then slowly handed the letter in her hand to Shao Yun, and said softly: "This is what Kujo Sara gave to Toma, please take a look..."

……

Time goes back to a few hours ago, inside the Mulou Tea Room.

Due to the earth-shattering explosion in the Tadashi Sand, the entire Inazuma Castle fell into panic.

However, Thomas still stayed quietly in front of the counter of Mulou Tea House, not knowing what to do at the moment.

At this moment, the clear and pleasant sound of wind chimes suddenly rang out, breaking the silence.

Thomas' heart was shocked and he turned his head suddenly, his eyes just falling on Kujo Sara who had just broken into the store.

This heroic general was seen holding a bleeding head in his left hand and a mysterious package in his right hand.

Thomas was horrified when he saw this, and secretly complained in his heart. It's already this time, and I didn't expect him to come to execute the Eye Hunting Order. Isn't he too persistent!

"Master Kujo! This is the Mulou Teahouse, the territory bestowed upon our society by the general!"

However, Kujo Sara did not come to challenge Thomas as he had expected.

Instead, she replied with a serious face: "Of course I know that this place belongs to the Shebuxing, and that is why I came to visit in person."

When Thomas heard the word "visit", he was stunned at first.

Then he stared in astonishment at the still bleeding head in Kujo Sara's hand, and stammered, "Ku-Kujo-sama, is that... a human head in your left hand?"

Kujo Sara handed the package in his right hand to Thomas without any expression and spoke in an extremely cold tone.

"Don't worry about the thing in my left hand for now. This package contains solid evidence that the Kande Bugyo and Tenryo Bugyo are colluding with each other and colluding with the Fatui to disturb Inazuma."

"In addition, there is a handwritten letter inside. Mr. Thomas, please be sure to pass it on to the 'White Egret Princess' or Lord Kamisato Ayato."

Thomas took the package with both hands, nodded solemnly and agreed to it, saying that he would live up to the trust.

However, he could not take his eyes away from the bloody head in Kujo Sara's left hand, and finally could not help asking again: "I know, but Master Kujo, about your left hand..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Kujo Sara.

Kujo Sara effortlessly lifted up the head that was still dripping with blood, a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he snorted coldly, "This thing? Humph! It's just the head of the traitor 'Kujo Takayuki'."

Thomas was struck by lightning when he heard this. He stood there in a daze, his face full of disbelief.

After a long while, he came back to his senses and exclaimed in a trembling voice: "This! It turned out to be the head of Kujo Takayuki! Lord Sara, why did you do such a thing?"

Kujo Sara told about his plan.

"I decided to use Kujo Takayuki's head to appease Shao Yun's anger."

"It is beyond doubt that all the problems facing Inazuma were caused by the Fatui and the scum who erode the foundations of the country like parasites."

"As long as I bring this head to Shao Yun, all problems will be solved!"

Thomas' heart tightened when he heard this, and he quickly tried to dissuade him, "Master Jiujo, please be patient. This is such a crucial matter, shouldn't you explain it to the master of the family in person?"

What he meant was that he hoped to tactfully retain Kujo Sara and prevent her from rashly going forward and taking risks and losing her life.

Unfortunately, Kujo Sara did not understand the deeper meaning of Thomas' words, and just pointed to the bundle entrusted to Thomas for safekeeping.

"No need to say more. I have explained everything clearly in the letter. Now, I must go and stop Shao Yun immediately!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Kujo Sara walked out the door holding the creepy head.

Thomas saw this and shouted loudly.

"Please wait!"

Kujo Sara stopped walking, slowly turned around, and asked coldly, without any intention of retreating, "Anything else?"

Thomas pursed his slightly dry lips and told the worst possible outcome.

"It's too risky for you to rush over to stop Shao Yun like this! Excuse me, if Shao Yun's anger has not subsided, the consequences will be disastrous! By then, I'm afraid even his life will be in danger!"

However, Kujo Sara just smiled indifferently.

She had long seen through life and death. She responded softly, "If that is true, then being able to die before the general is not only my unshirkable responsibility, but also my supreme honor!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Kujo Sara resolutely pushed open the door of the Mulou Tea House.

As the clear and melodious sound of wind chimes rang out, she went forward without hesitation to greet the final ending that might be destined to be hers.

……

Shao Yun was staring quietly at the letter left by Kujo Sara in his hand.

The handwriting on the letter paper was clearly visible, briefly recording the unspeakable dealings between the Kanjo Bugyo Hiiragi family and the Tenryo Bugyo Kujo family.

Kamisato Ayaka stood to one side, her hands slightly folded in front of her, and said softly: "This is a handwritten letter from General Kujo, and it all states that everything is a conspiracy of the Fatui!"

"The fools secretly colluded with the Kanjo Bugyo and Tenryo Bugyo to deceive the general, causing the isolation order and the eye hunting order to be promulgated and implemented, harming Inazuma!"

Shao Yun put down the letter in his hand, stared at the slightly uneasy Kamisato Ayaka in front of him, and asked coldly: "So, what do you mean? Are you trying to say that your high and mighty Thunder God is an innocent person?"

"Or are you trying to arouse my guilt so that I can believe that Thor is blameless?"

Faced with Shao Yun's questioning, Kamisato Ayaka lowered her head and remained silent.

In fact, from a certain perspective, she did think so.

However, when Shao Yun exposed her in person, she suddenly felt embarrassed.

Seeing this, Shao Yun knew clearly that Kamisato Ayaka had already acknowledged his guess.

He handed the letter back to her, suppressed his anger, rubbed his brows, and said with gritted teeth: "I don't know how many times I have emphasized that the reason why I killed Lei Shen is only one reason, she injured Ying! That's all!"

If Shao Yun doesn't kill the God of Thunder, he will have no face to face his brother-in-law "Kong".

If he really knelt on the ground and prayed, and God was able to kill the god of thunder with a thunderbolt, he would not hesitate to have his head smashed to pieces!

After saying these words, Shao Yun sat back on the doorstep, his eyes directed directly at Kamisato Ayaka.

"If you have nothing else to say, please leave! I still have to wait for Ying to come back!"

Kamisato Ayaka tightly grasped the letter in her hand, looking extremely nervous.

She mustered up her courage and asked, "Mr. Shao Yun, regarding the body of the Grand Imperial Palace..."

Although Inazuma does not have a grand and solemn farewell ceremony like the one in Liyue, the Thunder God has passed away after all, so a corresponding memorial ceremony should be held.

Shao Yun recalled the past events in the Pure Land. In the end, the body of the Thunder God shone like lightning!

"The Thunder God did not leave any corpse behind. Her body was like the brilliant fireworks set off by the Night Palace. It disappeared without a trace in an instant, leaving no remains behind."

Baalzebub pursued eternity throughout his life, but in the end his body disappeared in an instant like fireworks... What a dramatic ending.

"However, the ashes of the Fatui executive 'Madam' are still inside the castle tower. Pick out a few large pieces and send them to Winter Solstice."

Compared to the original plot where only a mask was left, this time she should be able to leave a few bones, which is much better than Baalzebub.

Upon hearing this, Kamisato Ayaka couldn't help but sigh softly and responded softly: "Okay, I understand, then let's say goodbye."

After saying that, she turned and left.

Since the Thunder God didn't leave behind a body, we can only build a cenotaph. As for the lady's body, there's no rush...

Shao Yun looked at Kamisato Ayaka's back and asked the doubts in his heart.

"Do you hate me for killing Thor?"

Kamisato Ayaka slowly stopped, then she turned her head gently, her eyes met Shao Yun's, and she nodded slightly.

"It would be a lie to say that I have no hatred in my heart. Even if the general has committed many faults, as a subject of Inazuma, I really have no right to judge her..."

Shao Yun nodded silently, very much like an Inazuma...

"If you want to avenge Thor, you are always welcome to come."

"However, before that, please remember one thing, if you dare to point your spearhead at Ying..."

Just as Shao Yun was about to continue speaking, Kamisato Ayaka suddenly interrupted him.

She quoted a sentence once said by Kamisato Ayato and replied: "Not everyone has the right to overturn the table."

After saying that, Kamisato Ayaka turned and left, leaving behind a figure that was getting farther and farther away.

Shao Yun took a deep breath and recalled that fateful night, the night when Jiu Mengzi was about to take Ying to steal the Sky Harp.

He clearly remembered every word he said to Ying at that time.

"You, me, and Paimon, the friendship between the three of us is the most real to me. Just for this friendship, I can kill for you, and I am willing to die for you."

Looking back now, Shao Yun couldn't help but feel deeply moved. Those promises he once made have now turned into real actions.

Shao Yun murmured softly: "I did it, I did it."

Next, I just have to wait for Ying’s reaction when she comes back.
