The original god of the Jyota Jinchūriki

Chapter 279 The Imperial Banquet is in Progress

"Thank you to everyone from Wangsheng Hall for helping to solve the problem at Heguan this time."

Ying looked at Zhongli and thanked him sincerely. It's not that Ying had not investigated the problems on Heguan, but because of his lack of expertise, Ying had no good way to solve the problems on Heguan Island. He could only allow Heguan Island to be out of the control of the shogunate. Now that the problems on Heguan Island have been solved, the fertile soil of Heguan Island will become a grain-growing area for Inazuma.

"It was not me who solved the problem of Heguan Island, but our Wangsheng Hall's Master Hu. If the general wants to express gratitude, he might as well thank our Master Hu."

Zhongli was also speaking the truth. He really didn't take any part in this public-funded tour, except for the help he put in when dealing with the thunderbird at the end. Most of the time he was just watching the show from the sidelines.

"Is that you, the head of the Wangsheng Hall, Hu Tao? I heard Sha Luo mention you."

When Hu Tao heard General Lei Dian say her name, she immediately sat up straight. Seeing that Hu Tao was sitting there quietly instead of laughing just now, General Lei Dian thought that this child was interesting.

"Okay, don't be nervous. You helped Inazuma so much, I should reward you."

General Raiden waved his hand, and a map of Inazuma City made of lightning element appeared in front of everyone. Hu Tao was shocked by General Raiden's move. Wow, this is so cool.

Seeing Kurumi looking at General Raiden with admiration, Ruota, who was eating and drinking beside her, snorted disdainfully. She was not exaggerating. If he were allowed to do it, he could replicate the entire Inazuma Castle with rocks.

"I heard that you want to open a branch of Wangshengtang in Inazuma City. As a reward, you can choose a place on the map to build a store, and you don't have to pay taxes for a hundred years."

"Not only that, I will also grant the person in charge of the Inazuma Rebirth Hall the power to meet me directly. This way, the Rebirth Hall will not be controlled by the three great magistrates. How about these rewards?"

"Okay, okay, thank you, General. I will definitely offer a very discounted special meal at the Wangsheng Hall in Inazuma, and I guarantee that the people of Inazuma will feel like they are back home."

Based on the principle of not taking advantage of a good deal, even though the store that Ruojin bought for her was already under renovation, after hearing what General Lei Dian said, Hu Tao still decided to pick a place. Well, at worst, the front of the store that Ruojin bought could be turned into a warehouse and the back into a staff dormitory.

After Hu Walnut's selection, a piece of land was directly taken by Hu Walnut, because the location of this land was quite special. After Hu Walnut made her selection, General Raiden called the official in charge of handling Inazuma's land. The official looked at Hu Walnut in shock, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated. However, he didn't say anything in the end.

Just like that, Kurumi, who received the reward, happily ended the royal banquet with all kinds of delicious food from Inazuma. After Kurumi and the other two left, the shadow who controlled the body said with some concern.

"Son of God, do you think I did something wrong? Maybe I shouldn't let her choose the position at will?"

"Haha, Ying, you've already said it, do you want to go back on your word?"

"The Hall of Rebirth was chosen to be located next to the castle tower. Wow, what a great location." Looking at Yae Shinko who was quite interested in this matter, Ying also had a headache. Kujo Sara had reported before about what business the Hall of Rebirth was doing, so she naturally knew about it.

But since she had already said it, there was no way she could go back on her word. Alas, she just hoped that the Hall of Rebirth would be more peaceful by then. She didn't want to meditate in the castle tower listening to funeral music all day long. The thought of it made her feel a little resistant.

"General, the number of Fatui in Inazuma Castle has suddenly increased recently. Do we need to deal with it?"

Just when Yae Shinko was chatting with Ying, Kujo Sara suddenly came to the castle tower to report the recent situation in Inazuma Castle. After hearing Kujo Sara's report, Ying frowned slightly. Before Ying could say anything, Yae Shinko suddenly said.

"Little guy, there are indeed a lot more Faints in Inazuma Castle. Today, when I came to the castle tower to eat, I saw a Faint walking out of the Kujo family."

"Please don't make such jokes, Lord Palace Master. The Kujo family is loyal to the Shogun and will never come into contact with evil forces like the Fatui."

Although her adoptive father has changed a lot for the sake of the family in recent years, Kujo Sara still doesn't believe that he has colluded with the Fatui. As someone who grew up in the Kujo family at a very young age, Kujo Sara knows very well that her adoptive father worships General Raiden, and her adoptive father has taught her loyalty since she was a child. Kujo Sara doesn't believe that such a person would betray General Raiden and collude with the Fatui.

"Little guy, I'm not kidding about this kind of thing~ You might as well think about it yourself, isn't the Kujo family a little strange recently~"

Seeing that Yae Shinko didn't seem to be joking, Kujo Sara's heart was startled. Could it be that the Kujo family really hid from her that Kujo Sara was colluding with the Fatui? A terrible idea appeared in Kujo Sara's mind.

Even Kujo Sara found this idea a little hard to believe. She would rather believe that the Fatui went to Kujo's house to steal things than think that her adoptive father, who admired the Shogun so much, would betray the Shogun and Inazuma.

"After the war is over, I will personally investigate these matters. If the Kujo family really betrayed the Shogun, I will personally bring the traitors of the Kujo family to the Shogun and let the Shogun judge them."

Realizing that General Raiden had been watching her quietly, Kujo Sara assured General Raiden very seriously that if the recent offensive of the rebels had not been too fierce, she would not have been able to leave for too long. Kujo Sara wanted to investigate the matter right away.

Yae Kamiko looked at Kujo Sara in front of him and narrowed his fox eyes happily. This loyal little Tengu was finally not so stubborn. It was not easy. The seeds of doubt had been planted. Now it's time for you to show your ability. Little Sara, will you choose your family or Inazuma? But this little guy should choose Inazuma. After all, his old friend occupies too much weight in the little Tengu's heart.

Thinking of Kujo Sara's daily admiration for her old friend, Yae Kamiko couldn't help but feel sad for Kujo Takayuki, Kujo Sara's adoptive father. The daughter he had raised for such a long time was directly conquered by her old friend Ying. In the future, she might even be stabbed by Kujo Sara. Tsk, how pitiful.

However, it is too early to think about these things now. According to the plan given to her by the Doctor, what will happen next should be a war between the rebels and the shogunate army under the secret instigation of the Fatui. Perhaps she should go to Umi Island recently and find a chance to give the Heart of God to her old friend. Otherwise, considering her old friend's personality, the Heart of God may have to be taken by the Queen of Winter herself.
