The original god of the Jyota Jinchūriki

Chapter 256: First meeting with Kuki Shinobu

The key point is that they were going around in circles, but what Ruojin couldn't accept the most was that after he discovered that they were going around in circles and told Yidou about it, the idiot Yidou didn't believe it. He patted his chest and insisted on arguing with Ruojin, saying that Ruojin was wrong, which made Ruojin really suspect that he was wrong at first.

"Look, it's almost dark. Isn't it time for you to go home?"

Please go back quickly, old man. I beg you. If we keep going like this, I'm worried that the merchants around us will report us to Tianling Fengxing for lurking nearby. If something happens to be lost nearby today, he and Yidou will definitely be the most suspicious.

Looking at the stars already hanging in the sky, Ruo Jin no longer cared about what the Dragon King Ruota had said before about the false sky. He now just wanted to send Yidou away as soon as possible and find a place to rest and have a good sleep.

"Oh, it's really getting late. Ruojin, let's go. I'll take you back to the headquarters of the Arotaki faction and introduce you to some friends. Ninja should be here today. The violet melon she roasted is delicious."

Yidou looked up at the moon in the sky, and was quite surprised to find that it had darkened without him noticing. As a ghost, if Ruojin hadn't reminded him, the energetic Yidou would have continued to stay and wander around Ruojin.

"No, no, no, that's really not necessary. I can just find a place to live."

When Ruo Jin heard Yidou invite him to visit the headquarters of the Arawaki faction, he shook his head like a rattle. Not only that, his face was full of resistance.

After all, Yidou alone was enough to give him such a headache. If he went to the headquarters of the Arotaki faction and met a group of Yidou, Ruojin felt that his head was starting to hurt just thinking about that scene. But before Ruojin could continue to refuse, Yidou grabbed Ruojin's clothes and started dragging him directly to the headquarters of the Arotaki faction.

"Hey, clothes, clothes..."

Ignoring Ruojin who was shouting for clothes, Yidou rushed forward. After spending an afternoon together, Yidou discovered that his new friend was good in every way except that he was too shy. He was hesitant the whole afternoon. He was just visiting their Arawaki sect, so why was he so shy? As Ruojin's good brother, he had to help Ruojin change.

Being dragged like this by Yidou, and feeling some inexplicable deep meaning in the eyes of the people around him, Ruojin's face turned green. In order to prevent his reputation in front of Inazuma from being ruined by the idiot Yidou, the immortal power flowed in Ruojin's hands. With a slight shake of the immortal power, Yidou's hand was directly shaken away by Ruojin. Of course, as Ruojin expected, Yidou was still holding a piece of Ruojin's sleeve in his hand.

"I say, Ruojin, the quality of your clothes is really poor. They broke when I pulled them."

"Yidou, you don't have to hold me anymore, I'll go with you."

Seeing that Yidou was about to come over and grab his sleeve and drag him away, Ruojin smiled bitterly and quickly expressed his willingness to follow Yidou to visit the Arakaki faction’s headquarters. Yidou then stopped his actions with satisfaction.

"Boss, don't just recruit people to join the Aradaki faction casually."

Inside the headquarters of the Aradaki sect, the second-in-command of the Aradaki sect, Kuki Shinobu, was holding her forehead with a headache as she looked at the handsome guy in Liyue clothes in front of her. Last time, Yidou took advantage of her absence to treat a bard to dinner and drinks without her permission in order to win him over to join the Aradaki sect, which almost bankrupted the Aradaki sect.

It's only been a few days since the Aragaki sect finally had some start-up funds, but now Yidou has brought in another person. Jiuqi Shinobu seriously suspects that if she doesn't keep an eye on Yidou, the leader, the Aragaki sect will go bankrupt today. "Shinobu, this shy brother is Ruojin from Liyue. I brought him here to meet you. He hasn't joined our Aragaki sect yet."

Ito patted Wakatsuki's shoulder and introduced Wakatsuki to Kuki Shinobu. Because he often went to help Kujo Sara with work, Kuki Shinobu had sharp eyes. When Ito patted Wakatsuki's shoulder just now, Kuki Shinobu unexpectedly found that the handsome guy named Wakatsuki didn't even shake his body.

This made Jiuqi Shinobu feel a little unbelievable. As the second in command, she knew very well how strong her boss was. Although Ichito might not be in the best condition now without the Eye of God, the impact of losing the Eye of God on Ichito was almost negligible.

However, Ruo Jin was able to take the beating from Yidou without changing his expression and his body didn't even shake. Just based on this point, Jiuqi Shinobu felt that the handsome guy brought back by his boss was no ordinary person.

"Hello, nice to meet you. My name is Ruojin, and I'm from Liyue."

After discovering that the girl in front of him named Kuki Shinobu was not as silly as Ito, Ruojin, who felt relieved, took the initiative to greet the girl in front of him. Knowing that Ruojin was not an ordinary person, Kuki Shinobu also took the initiative to introduce herself.

"Hello, my name is Kuki Shinobu, and I'm the second in command of the Aratake faction."

While Wakakin and Kuki Shinobu were getting to know each other, Ichito was not idle either. He came to the side and turned on the light directly. Because the Arotaki sect was relatively poor, Kuki Shinobu did not allow him to use this alchemy lamp often. Now that there were guests coming, Arotaki Ichito could finally use it openly.

Under the light, Ruojin's appearance became much clearer in Jiuqi's eyes. After carefully observing Ruojin's face, Jiuqi was a little confused. Why did she feel that this person was so familiar? She should have seen this handsome guy somewhere before, but where had she seen him before? Under the light, the genius girl Jiuqi fell into thought.

Could it be that she had seen this person before when she was studying in Liyue? Was this person her classmate? No, if he was really her classmate, she would have recognized him at a glance. Moreover, when graduation was approaching, Jiuqi Shinobu and her classmates took a group photo together. Jiuqi Shinobu was very sure that this person was not in the photo.

Where had she seen this person before? Did she see him in the place where she worked to earn tuition in Liyue? That was not right. If it was really in that place, Jiuqi Shinobu felt that she should not have any impression of Ruo Jin. There were so many guests in that Liuli Pavilion every day, and Jiuqi Shinobu would not pay attention to any of them individually.

Could it be the senior who had given her a lecture? That’s right! Senior Yan Fei, this handsome guy named Ruo Jin had come to Senior Yan Fei when she was giving a lecture to her group of juniors. He seemed to be Senior Yan Fei’s friend.

After remembering where she had seen Ruojin, Jiuqi Shinobu's eyes lit up. Since he was a friend of senior Yanfei, the person in front of her should not be a bad person. In this case, she would feel more at ease. However, why did the name Ruojin sound so familiar to her? She always felt that she had heard of it somewhere, Ruojin, Ruojin.

Wait, Ruojin! As if he had thought of something, Jiuqi Shinobu suddenly widened his eyes, and under the light, the usually calm Jiuqi Shinobu exclaimed in surprise.

"You are the younger brother of Yuhengxing, one of the Seven Stars of Liyue, Ruojin?"
