The original god of the Jyota Jinchūriki

Chapter 247 Arrival at the Outlying Island
"Finally, we're on land! Ying, let's go have a big meal. I heard from Shenzi that Inazuma's fried tofu is especially delicious."

"Eat, eat, eat. Paimon, all you do is eat. Why didn't you care about me when we were going through the thunderstorm just now?"

Ying looked at Ying and Paimon playing and fighting, and everyone present smiled easily. Although many of them were accustomed to drifting on the sea, the sense of security brought by standing on land was far beyond what a ship could provide.

Among the crowd, Manye's expression was a little complicated. When he stepped into Inazuma's land again, he did not feel the slightest bit of joy of returning to his hometown. All he felt was hatred for the Eye Hunter Order and pain for his friend's death.

"Manye, you should stay on the boat and don't force yourself."

Ruojin patted Manye's shoulder. He had noticed that something was wrong with Manye's mood when Manye was telling him the story of his friend on the boat. Now that they were off the boat, Manye could no longer hide the sadness in his heart.

"I'm sorry, but I may not be able to accompany you on this trip. I'm now one of Inazuma's wanted criminals. If I'm seen with you, it will bring you trouble."

"It's okay, Manye, you need to be more open-minded. Once the Eye Hunting Order is cancelled, I will personally hold a funeral for your friend. I will consider it as a free service for the cenotaph you purchased before."

"Thank you very much, Master Hu. I will return to the ship first."

Wan Ye thanked Hu Tao gratefully and returned to the boat. Influenced by Wan Ye, Ruo Ta also won the chase of Paimon. Looking at Wan Ye's back, Ruo Jin snorted coldly.

"How did that General Lei Dian become the God of Thunder? He is the only one in the world who can make a country worse and worse. If you ask me..."

"Ahem, be careful with what you say, the person who is going to take over from me is coming."

Beidou interrupted Ruota in time. If someone with ulterior motives heard him saying bad things about General Raiden in Inazuma's territory, it would definitely cause a lot of trouble.

"Captain Beidou, it's been a while. Let's go have a drink?"

"Haha, Thomas, long time no see. Let's just have a drink. I have a lot of brothers on this ship to support. After unloading the cargo, I will go somewhere else."

When Beidou and Thomas were reminiscing about the past, Paimon happened to fly past Beidou. Beidou quickly grabbed Ying, and while Ying was still confused, Beidou put his arm around Ying's shoulders and introduced her to Thomas.

"Let me introduce you. This is my friend, Ying. She is a well-known traveler in both Liyue and Mondstadt."

Thomas' eyes lit up when he saw the blonde girl in front of him. He had seen the traveler's name many times on the Kamisato family's intelligence website. Thomas knew all the information about the traveler. Moreover, the girl in front of him didn't seem to be very smart. If he could fool this traveler, the head of the family should be able to get a good helper.

"Hello, traveler. I have heard about your deeds. You fought against dragons in Mondstadt and confronted demons in Liyue. It is truly admirable."

Thomas greeted Ying enthusiastically, complimenting her one after another, which made Ying a little shy. She waved her hands and said a little embarrassedly, "Haha, it's not as exaggerated as you say. Ruo Jin is actually better than me."

Ying pointed at Ruojin who was watching the scenery with Hu Tao, and looked very modest. Ruojin? What's that name? The immortal disciple from Liyue also came to Inazuma? How come this is different from what the master of the family had guessed?

Seeing Wakakin who looked exactly like the one in the photo included in the intelligence not far away, Thomas' pupils trembled violently twice like an earthquake. According to his lord's speculation, although this traveler had asked the immortal disciple to go to Inazuma with her during the ceremony of sending the immortal, Kamisato Ayato, who knew what the current situation of his own territory was, never thought that Wakakin would come to Inazuma at this time.

After all, Ruojin's identity is too special. If something happens to Ruojin in Inazuma, the relationship between Inazuma and Liyue will be at a freezing point. For the sake of diplomacy between the two countries, Kamisato Ayato never thought that the Liyue high-level officials would let Ruojin, the immortal disciple, come to Inazuma at this time. Therefore, Thomas, who has great trust in his own lord, has not prepared any words for Ruojin.

What's more, what's even more terrible is that the eldest lady and the head of the family don't know about this. If they act according to the plan, what if this immortal disciple Ru Jin gets involved and something goes wrong in the plan? Then wouldn't Thomas become a sinner of the Kamisato family?

Thinking of the possible consequences of the failure of the plan, a glimmer of determination flashed in Thomas' eyes. No, he must find a way to get Ruo Jin away. He must not let this immortal disciple travel with the traveler. Otherwise, with this unknown variable, their plan will definitely become uncertain.

Having made the decision silently, Thomas was thinking of a reason to send Ruojin away while greeting Ruojin enthusiastically.

"Mr. Ruojin is indeed worthy of being a disciple of the Immortal. He is truly a man of talent."

"Mr. Thomas, you are too polite. I will trouble you to take care of me during these days in Inazuma."

Ruojin smiled and nodded at Thomas. Although Thomas had something of considerable value on him, it was still possible to make friends with a local tyrant like Thomas. There were some things that the local tyrants knew as much as the Inazuma shogunate knew. Besides, Thomas didn't look like a bad person, so it was still possible to make friends with him.

"Haha, it's not a big deal. We are all Captain Beidou's friends, so we just need to take care of each other in the future."

Seeing that Dao Ruojin was not as arrogant as the Liyue Immortal said in the intelligence, Thomas felt slightly relieved. Although he had dealt with many arrogant guests when he was in Kamisato's house, to be honest, such guests were really difficult to serve. If possible, Thomas did not want to have any interaction with such people.

Fortunately, the immortal disciple in front of him was not that kind of person. After calming down, Thomas took out some documents and handed them to everyone. Because he didn't know how many people Beidou brought, Thomas deliberately brought a few more documents. He didn't expect that they would actually be used.

"I brought a lot of documents for landing on the island. Take them. With this, the Yinshan Supervisory Office should not make things difficult for you."

“Uh, this feels so troublesome. It’s even more troublesome than for me to go to the General Affairs Department to pay a fine. Fortunately, we in Liyue don’t have so many things to do.”

After taking a quick look at the documents for landing procedures that Thomas had sent to everyone, Kurumi couldn't help but complain a few words. She was still thinking about finishing the commission that Yae Kamiko had told her about as soon as possible and then going to Inazuma Castle to open the Inazuma branch of the Wangsei-do.
