Time flies, and in the days that follow, the world continues to move, and there is no such thing as "eternity" anymore...

Ying took Paimon on an adventure to Heguan Island, where they gained many precious memories and treasure chests.

For example, the story of Aru from Tsurukan Island, and sending the dead souls on board...

However, Shao Yun chose to stay in Inazuma City.

For Shao Yun and Ying, all of this finally seemed like the ordinary yet warm daily adventure life in Mondstadt and Liyue.

At the same time, earth-shaking changes took place on Minggami Island.

With the strong assistance of the resistance forces on Kaijima Island, those sea demons and noboru who had acted recklessly and disrupted social order were brought to justice one after another.

Although the existence of Kairanki and Nobushi has not been completely eliminated, the security situation in the entire area has been significantly improved.

The lives of the people of Narukami Island gradually returned to normal, and Narukami Island regained its vitality.

……

The issue of worshipping the god of Tadashi Sand was also successfully resolved with the concerted efforts of many priestesses of Narujin Taisha Shrine and Coral Palace.

However, it will take a long time for the vegetation on the island to recover.

……

When the situation in Inazuma gradually stabilized, Yae Miko led a group of priestesses from the Narukami Taisha Shrine, and carefully prepared and held a solemn and grand funeral ceremony with Baelzebub's puppet "General Thunder" as her remains.

The grandness of this funeral was unprecedented, attracting people from all over Inazuma Castle to come and pay their respects and bid farewell.

However, there is a question that always lingers in the minds of many ordinary Inazuma people: Why did the Thunder God pass away?

Previously, due to the lies fabricated by Kujo Takayuki and the Fatui, many people mistakenly believed that General Raiden was still alive.

But now that Thor has passed away suddenly, this has undoubtedly plunged everyone into deep confusion and bewilderment.

The life-and-death duel between Shao Yun and Baalzebub took place in the Pure Land of One Mind.

Except for a few core senior figures of Inazuma such as Yae Kamiko and Kamisato Ayaka, the rest of the Inazuma people were completely unaware of this.

As the funeral came to an end, Yae Kamiko solemnly and majestically declared in front of the majestic Thousand-armed and Hundred-eyed statue in front of the castle tower, in front of all the people of Inazuma Castle, that she would become the third generation Thunder God of Inazuma.

At this moment, the entire Inazuma Castle was immersed in an atmosphere of sadness, confusion, yet hope.

People's hearts are filled with expectations for the future, endless nostalgia for the previous Thor, and confusion about it all.

……

The first thing Yae Kamiko did after ascending to the throne of the God of Thunder was to announce to the entire Inazuma the numerous crimes committed by the Fatui.

She borrowed the way Mondstadt and Liyue dealt with such incidents and classified the Fatui as an illegal organization.

At the same time, it decisively cut off diplomatic ties with the Kingdom of Winter, retaining only necessary commercial exchanges.

Next, Yae Shinko embarked on the second important task, which was to sign a formal peace agreement of historic significance with Kaijima.

This agreement not only marks the end of the long-standing hostility between the two sides, but also brings the long-awaited peace to the people of the two islands.

In secret, Yae Shen Zi also fulfilled the secret deal she had reached with Coral Palace Xinhai as promised.

Afterwards, Yae Kamiko began to vigorously rectify the domestic affairs of Inazuma.

The most eye-catching move was the large-scale personnel adjustment of the Kanjo Bugyo, in which many old forces were replaced, giving the agency a new look.

At the same time, the status of the Society was greatly enhanced by this reform, and its influence grew.

However, for those subordinate families who once depended on the head of the Hiiragi family, this was undoubtedly a nightmare.

When they learned that they had lost power, they fainted on the ground as if they had been hit hard. It was a spectacular scene.

As for the Tenryo Bugyo, the task of maintaining law and order in Inazuma was mostly handed over to the resistance forces on Kaijima, and this department was forgotten.

……

Although Yae Kamiko is now the God of Thunder, she still loves living in the peaceful and quiet Narukami Taisha Shrine.

The once glorious castle tower has now become a place to store the remains of General Raiden and a silent memorial hall, witnessing the vicissitudes of the past years.

The death of the second-generation Thunder God Baalzebub gradually became a taboo topic that Inazuma could not touch, and no one dared to discuss it in public.

However, in some unknown corners.

For example, in a quiet izakaya late at night, those drunk diners would occasionally still take advantage of the alcohol to cautiously mention the matter.

Someone vividly described that General Lei Dian and the resurrected Oropas had a bloody battle that was so shocking that it made the world weep and the ghosts cry. In the end, both of them died together.

Some people also swore that it was the Fatui who secretly murdered General Lei Dian in brutal manner.

What's more, some conspiracy theorists insist that all of this is a huge conspiracy carefully planned by Yae Shinko.

However, it is worth mentioning that the famous "prophecy" novelist, who combined various conspiracy theories on the streets, hid in the dark and secluded little house in Yaedo, worked hard and wrote furiously, devoting himself to the creation of the third volume of his novel.

……

Kujo Sara's body was buried by the Arotaki sect led by Arotaki Ichito, and her final resting place is in the peaceful and tranquil White Fox Field.

On the day of the burial, the sky was blue and the sun was shining brightly. The warm sunlight sprinkled on the earth, which was incompatible with the sad atmosphere in front of Kujo Sara's tombstone.

Shao Yun participated in the burial ceremony. Only a few people came to mourn Kujo Sara. Apart from the members of the Aradaki faction and Shao Yun, no one else was present.

Even Shikanoin Heizo, who had a good relationship with Kujo Sara, failed to show up, which really made Jiuqi feel puzzled.

(Off topic: Shikanoin Heizo was trapped on Kaijima Island and imprisoned by the Nobushi. For details, please refer to the relevant invitation tasks.)

……

The burial ceremony of Kujo Sara was completed, and Arata Ichito stood quietly beside Shao Yun.

He clenched his fists, trying to suppress the rage in his heart, and said through gritted teeth: "Shao Yun, Ah Ren told me a lot, but this doesn't mean I can easily let go of this blood feud."

"You killed the nine Saras, I will definitely find a way to kill you and avenge Sara!"

Hearing Aratake Ichito's resolute words, Jiuqi couldn't help thinking that all his psychological counseling work was in vain!

She hurried forward and advised: "Boss, please calm down!"

However, before Ara Taki Ichito could say anything, Shao Yun quickly stretched out his arm and made a gesture of stop, indicating that Jiuqi Shinobu didn't need to say anything more.

Then, Shao Yun looked Huang Long Yidou up and down and said, "I understand how you feel, but if you want revenge, then the target of revenge can only be me."

Huang Long Yidou nodded heavily, indicating that he agreed with Shao Yun's statement.

"Of course I understand this truth. As the saying goes, every wrong has its perpetrator and every debt has its creditor! I, Arawaki Ichito, have always acted honestly and have a clear conscience."

"I will learn some skills, and one day, I will fight you fair and square with my own strength, and kill you with my own hands!"

When Shao Yun heard that Huang Long Yidou wanted to learn skills, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint smile, and responded.

"That's great. I will be waiting for your presence and look forward to the day when you come to claim your blood debt from me."

"Although revenge is a fool's game, it's clear that neither of us is very smart."

Arata Ichito stood in front of Kujo Sara's grave, clenched his fists, and shouted to Shao Yun in a deep and powerful voice: "I will definitely find a way to kill you. I will use your head to sacrifice to Sara! Just wait for your death!"

Shao Yun slowly turned his head and stared at Arawaki Ichito calmly. He had already seen through his life-and-death tone and responded calmly, "I am very much looking forward to that moment."

"If one day I die in your hands, please let me face west, so that I can watch the sunset and savor the past of my life."

Arataki Ichito raised his right hand, gently wiped the tip of his nose with his thumb, and then answered decisively.

"No problem, just wait for that day!"

After saying that, Aradaki Ichito resolutely turned around and left, his figure getting farther and farther away. No one knew what kind of power he would seek to fulfill his wish for revenge.

At this time, Jiuqi Ren quietly walked to Shao Yun and whispered softly: "Mr. Shao Yun, I will use all the Mora you gave me to build Miss Sala's tomb. What do you think?"

Shao Yun looked at the intricately carved tombstone in front of him, then moved his gaze downward to the offerings placed on the ground in front of the tomb.

"Kujo Sara's tombstone is very well made, and the tribute even includes bird eggs."

Jiuqi Ren took out a slightly wrinkled flyer from his arms and said softly, "Back when I was still studying law in Liyue, one day I was shopping with my senior sister in Feiyunpo, Liyue."

"Suddenly, a girl who claimed to be the head of Wangsheng Hall appeared in front of me and my senior sister like a boss."

"She then forced the flyer into our hands and assured us that with this flyer we could get a 50% discount on the tombstone."

"At that time, I just thought it was a farce. I never thought it would be useful today."

Shao Yun looked at the flyer that Jiuqi Ren took out and muttered to himself, "I didn't expect that Wangshengtang's business would actually develop to Inazuma."

What Hu Tao said really came true. Wangshengtang and I were truly a match made in heaven!

Jiuqi Shinobu put away the flyer and looked at the plate of grilled bird eggs that was still emitting an enticing aroma.

"Although Sara always says one thing and means another, claiming that she has no interest in sweets, deep down she loves those sweet tastes more than anyone else."

"I've said before, don't be too hard on yourself all the time, it's not a bad thing to enjoy some sweets once in a while."

Having said this, Hisahi Shinobu's eyes involuntarily drifted towards Kujo Sara's tombstone.

"Now, Sara has gone to another world. May she enjoy sweets to her heart's content in that unknown other world."

However, Shao Yun put forward a completely different opinion at this moment.

"I think that even in another world, she would still abide by her own self-discipline."

Jiuqi Shinobu frowned slightly, sighed and said: "This is indeed something that Sara would do."

Then, she changed the subject and directed the topic to Aratake Ichito, saying in a firm tone: "As for the boss, I will definitely try my best to persuade him to abandon his groundless hatred."

Shao Yun seemed quite indifferent and responded casually: "It would be great if you can successfully convince him, but if you can't convince him, then you can help him and let him seek revenge on me."

Hearing this, Jiu Qi Ren looked at Shao Yun with a puzzled look on his face and asked, "Ah? I really can't understand why you have such an idea? The boss's revenge on you is groundless!"

Then, Jiuqi Shinobu began to rationally analyze the reason behind this.

"Let's analyze it from an absolutely rational perspective. You are the general of the resistance army of Kaijima, and Sara is the general of the shogunate army. With this status, it is reasonable for you to kill Sara during the war!"

Now that the shogunate has signed a peace agreement with Kaijima, it is completely untenable for Aratake Ichito to seek revenge on Shao Yun!

To put it bluntly, on the surface, the shogunate signed a peace agreement with Kaijima, but anyone with a discerning eye could see that the shogunate lost!

Whether in terms of results or morality, the shogunate lost completely.

We should be thankful that Kujo Sara was not labeled a war criminal!

After listening to Jiuqi Shinobu's words, Shao Yun said to himself: "But, people cannot be absolutely rational. Yidou is quite similar to me, both of us are idiots."

"Ichito won't understand the great principles you're talking about. He only knows that I killed Kujo Sara."

Jiuqi Shinobu just felt a headache. Yidou had been in the Tenryo Bugyo prison so many times, but she never felt it as difficult as it is now.

Finally, she couldn't help but ask, "Well... let me ask, what if, if one day, our boss comes looking for you for revenge, can you leave him a way out?"

This can be considered as the protection I provide for the boss. At least, he can save his life!

After hearing this, Shao Yun showed a playful smile on his face and asked, "What if the ending is that Yidou kills me?"

Jiuqi couldn't help but be stunned, thinking that this might be the most cruel joke he had ever heard in his life.

"I feel like I've only seen this kind of plot in light novels! How could so many people in the world successfully take revenge..."

After listening to this, Shao Yun laughed out loud. In this absurd world, nothing is impossible.

"Hahaha, as long as he doesn't try to take advantage of Ying and Paimon, and doesn't stubbornly insist on becoming a so-called martyr like Kujo Sara, I will let him go."

After hearing these words, the big stone in Jiuqi Shinobu's heart finally fell.

She let out a long sigh as if a heavy burden had been lifted from her shoulders, then bowed respectfully to Shao Yun.

"Then I'm here, thank you in advance."

Afterwards, Shinobu Kuki led the people of the Arotaki faction and slowly left to find Arotaki Ichito.

Shao Yun stood quietly there, looking at the lonely tombstone of Kujo Sara, with complex emotions in his eyes.

Death is the fairest thing. It comes to everyone equally.

Shao Yun silently reached into the Eastern Legend backpack and took out a notebook.

Shao Yun gently opened the notebook, and the paper made a slight rustling sound.

After turning to a blank page, he picked up a pencil, touched the tip of the pencil to the paper, and began to depict Kujo Sara's tombstone in great detail.

He wanted to imprint every detail of the tombstone on paper.

Time passed minute by minute, and Shao Yun was fully focused on sketching.

When the last stroke was made, Kujo Sara's tombstone appeared vividly in Shao Yun's notebook.

However, Shao Yun did not stop what he was doing.

He frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and then gently wrote a line in the corner of the sketch.

"A martyr who died for his beliefs - Kujo Sara."

After writing this sentence, Shao Yun closed the notebook and put it into his backpack.

He raised his head and looked at Kujo Sara's tombstone again, leaving his last words.

"Good night, martyr."
