In any case, it would be best if Cardodia and Shin could come back; well, it would be even better if that scene hadn't happened.
Su Chen gave a brief explanation of the actual situation with lightning.
The limitations of Stand users were lifted by the power of the Heart of God. After the last time, the true soul has been completely stabilized. However, it is very difficult to reshape the physical body and return to the previous state.
The first step is to create a divine body.
Ordinary power simply cannot withstand the soul of a true demon god.
Secondly, it involves merging the soul into the divine body using power at the level of a demon god.
Ying immediately said, "Just use my body. Anyway, I can already move without a body."
"No way," Zhen immediately refused. "If I use your body, what will you do afterwards?"
"I don't care."
"I care."
Zhen insisted that Shadow's body should not be used, and also told Shadow not to continue giving the right to use the body to the puppet general.
The silly younger sister actually came up with this way to deal with Inazuma; she was both amused and exasperated.
“But the general has his own ideas…” Ying hesitated.
The General was created to uphold the eternal ideal, and even she cannot completely control her. For example, her recent series of 'exceptional' actions have already made the General develop a sense of rebellion.
Zhendao said, "Then let her stay in the Pure Land of Nothingness forever."
The poor general was truly sentenced to death.
However, to be fully resurrected without using a Shadow's body, one would need to create a divine body, something even a Shadow would find difficult to achieve.
Moreover, it's not easy to find power at the level of a demon god.
“Oh, right.” Ying opened her hand and took out the purple crystal.
Su Chen was stunned. Wasn't this his power?
"Where did it come from?"
"You die... um~ it appeared when you left, I've kept it all this time."
This crystal contains a portion of the power of Kadodia in her complete dragon form, which would be an extremely valuable supplement even for a god. If Shadow were to absorb it, he might be able to go next door and formally challenge Zhongli.
But she couldn't bear to part with it.
Because this was the only thing that allowed her to feel that Cardodia was still there.
"With this, it's enough." Su Chen nodded slightly.
“But this is yours…” Raiden hesitated.
"It's alright." Su Chen chuckled. "It's not necessary for me. Even without it, I will be able to reach that realm again one day."
"We have the power, but what about our bodies?" Ying was still worried.
Su Chen stroked his chin, pondered for a moment, and suddenly remembered someone.
Zhongli.
The Immortal Ancestor's Dharma Transformation, which was displayed at the Immortal Ceremony, clearly indicates a high level of cultivation. The old man's expertise in this area is quite remarkable. Moreover, Zhongli has lived for so many years, so he must have a considerable amount of resources. Lending some of these resources to help Zhen rebuild his divine body shouldn't be a problem.
What? How do I pay it back?
That's something the Human Emperor should consider; it has nothing to do with me, Cardodia.
...
After making up his mind, Su Chen did not set off immediately, after all, there were still many troublesome issues to deal with on Inazuma's side.
Leaving aside the unresolved conflict between the Inazuma people and the Dragon Lizard people, even within Inazuma itself, the Eye Hunting Edict and the Isolation Edict have both been corrupt officials who lined their own pockets and colluded with the ignorant masses. All sorts of sins are so numerous that even using all ten of the most cruel tortures of the Qing Dynasty wouldn't be enough.
The Inazuma problem requires top-down reforms. The entire shogunate's internal structure is largely corrupt, and it's not something that can be easily reversed.
Fortunately, Teyvat is a land ruled by the gods. As long as the gods are there, no matter how chaotic things get below, at least the kingdom will not perish.
The Dragon King Festival lasted for three days of revelry.
Su Chen quietly enjoyed three days of peace.
The crimson cherry blossoms of Inazuma adorn the cool-toned city, a gentle breeze rustles through the treetops, and crimson petals flutter in the air, bathed in the glow of the sunset, where the sea and sky merge into one.
Arriving at the White Fox Fields, we sat down on the lush green grass, with food and snacks laid out on the cushions, and poured ourselves a glass of fine wine—how delightful!
Tiger Chiyo lay down next to Su Chen, flipping through the latest serialized Dragon King novel by Yaedo. Yae Shinko picked up a piece of fried tofu and stuffed it into her mouth, cupping her face with a happy and satisfied expression.
A few Hilichurls were strolling in the distance when they were glanced at by the shadow. Their biological instincts kicked in and they fled in terror.
The sound of fireworks exploding in the distance could be heard; it was the Dragon King Festival on Hanamizaka, and the lively atmosphere could be felt even here.
"It's been a long time since I've had something like this." Raiden Shin knelt down to the side, smiling as he watched the fireworks fade away on the horizon.
“Five hundred...more than five hundred years, right?” Torachiyo tilted her head. “My teacher stayed in the Dragon King’s Palace after that.”
Ying glanced at Su Chen, recalling the time she saw him emerge from the Dragon King's Palace, as if he had waded through a sea of blood and a mountain of knives, the decay and desolation of which seemed like a distant memory.
Su Chen chuckled: "I ran into some trouble back then."
"It's a pity the Zhaigong Palace is no longer there."
"It's truly a pity," said Lei Dian.
"It should be soon. When she wakes up, she'll probably be quite startled."
Su Chen stretched comfortably.
The intoxicating fragrance of flowers and the aroma of wine are so refreshing. Enjoying time while slacking off is the most comfortable thing to do.
Ying lowered her gaze, a slight smile playing on her lips. For her, this was the time she most wanted to protect.
I wouldn't trade it for eternity.
"Come on, let's drink!" Su Chen raised his glass and laughed loudly.
Three days made Su Chen feel as if he had returned to a time thousands of years ago. Those simulated memories slowly surfaced, and he could savor them repeatedly.
On the fourth day, the Shadow immediately announced the cancellation of the Eye Hunt Order.
The news was met with cheers from everyone in Inazuma.
A statue with a thousand hands and a hundred eyes.
When the power symbolizing the God of Heaven descended, everyone present knelt down in reverence.
The shadow stood before the statue, sacred and majestic, its voice resounding in the minds of every subject.
"Since the Eye Hunting Order was issued, Inazuma has been plagued by endless wars and the people have suffered greatly. This is truly my fault. From this day forward, the Eye Hunting Order is hereby revoked, and all one hundred eyes are returned to you."
Swish swish! ! !
One by one, divine eyes flew out from the statue, turning into streams of light and automatically returning to their owners' hands.
The Hundred Eyes symbolize the wishes of the people, and their return is equivalent to liberating the minds of the people of Rice Country from eternal confinement.
“Do not cling to the eternal paradise, but pursue what your heart desires. Every place along that path is the most beautiful scenery.” Raiden Shin, who was quietly watching all this from the castle tower, said softly.
"Isn't this also a fleeting eternity?" Su Chen smiled faintly.
"Thank you, General!"
The people bowed in worship.
"My wish... has returned."
"Huh... I remember what I need to do."
"Haha! The Eye of God is back! Now how can that wretched Kujo Tengu possibly defeat me? Araki, the greatest fighter in the world, here I come!!!"
With the release of the Eye of God, a jubilant atmosphere filled Inazuma Castle.
As the direct cause of the conflict, the abolition of the Eye-Hunting Edict will inevitably bring about some changes to the situation in Inazuma. Of course, some will be happy while others will be sad, such as Umijima. Although they want the lifting of the isolation edict, the resistance army was formed under the pretext of resisting the Eye-Hunting Edict. This means that once the Eye-Hunting Edict is lifted, they will lose their legitimate reason for existence.
If it were merely a matter of Umijima raising the banner of rebellion against the shogunate and gradually launching an army attack, they would certainly suffer a terrible fate. Although Umijima had long been incorporated into Inazuma, it was, after all, an independent island, and its interactions with Inazuma were not particularly close.
The people of Umijima Island are often referred to as the people of Umijima, not the people of Narukami.
Given the strength of Umijima Island, even without the intervention of General Raiden, the Shogunate army could easily crush it if Seirai Island did not help.
The game dragged on for so long because the Tenryō magistrate did nothing. The Jujinshu (Fools) interfered, and their goal was to use the war to disrupt Inazuma, not to let the shogunate army kill all the rebels.
Su Chen was well aware of this, but the situation in Inazuma was not yet stable. Lifting the isolation order would be more harmful than beneficial. Not to mention the huge impact from the outside, just looking at the internal situation, if people came to Inazuma and saw the chaos and corpses everywhere, wouldn't they be so frightened that they would swim back as soon as possible?
Therefore, the most urgent task is to reorganize internally.
First, he must be killed.
God doesn't need a reason to kill, but if maintaining stability is the premise, then there must be a legitimate reason.
Fortunately, both the Heavenly Envoy and the Investigation Envoy had a long list of crimes. Su Chen persuaded Ying to collect evidence under the pretext of "clearing my name and restoring my innocence." Since he knew the situation of the two envoys very well, Ying readily agreed to this simple task, which was almost as easy as finding a treasure chest and burning the green vines on it.
In fact, Yae no Miko also possessed quite a few of these crimes, but managing Inazuma required the presence of the two magistrates, which is why she did not act rashly.
After all, the Puppet General's duty is to maintain stability in Inazuma. First, he may not actually punish the two magistrates, and second, what happens after the punishment? Who can guarantee that Inazuma won't get worse?
Human desires are like a boulder rolling down a mountain; the puppet general mechanism alone cannot change anything.
But don't worry now.
Soon, a major purge began within the shogunate, starting with the Kujo and Hiiragi families. The leaders of the two major magistrates were the first to be beheaded, and a bloody storm swept through Inazuma Castle.
Ying didn't know much about management, so orders were given directly by Su Chen. He often committed murder. His smile didn't mean he was truly kind. Crimes must be punished, not for justice, but for order.
The importance of order for managers is self-evident.
Having traversed Mondstadt and Liyue, Su Chen understood even more the importance of strict laws. Lao Tzu advocated "governing by non-action," emphasizing that only by establishing clear systems to govern a country can it endure.
Therefore, to kill those who disregard the law and abuse their power for personal gain, their crimes must first be made public, and then the law must be applied.
The advantage of having a deity is that after the crimes are made public, no one will question the general's judgment. In fact, the people will cheer, and then Su Chen will "follow the will of the people" and order all the criminals to be executed.
Of course, outsiders didn't know that he had done these things. As the Mondstadt envoy, Su Chen lived in the embassy and would occasionally go out for a stroll, to see the mountains and rivers. Orders could be relayed by Torachiyo.
The chaos within Inazuma Castle seemed to have nothing to do with him.
During this time, Su Chen went to the place where the Fox Palace was sleeping, the White Fox Wilderness, a place where flowers and plants flourished. He found that the latter had already shown signs of awakening, but he could not be sure when it would awaken.
"It's making quite a fuss."
