Ying directly pulled her dream out of her heart right in front of him.

“I can feel your consciousness inside, right?”

"Yes, in order to resist wear and tear, I stored my consciousness in this knife you left me."

Ying nodded immediately in response.

"Actually, my consciousness is here too."

"Ugh?"

Ying looked at Zhen in surprise, and Zhen smiled and shook her head.

"Actually, I did not die completely at that time; my consciousness was preserved with the help of a higher power."

Shin took the dream from Ying's hand and gently stroked it.

"I have preserved my consciousness and the seed of the Divine Cherry Tree in this Dream Heart, and then I have given it to you."

After listening, Ying carefully examined Meng Xiangyi, but found nothing; he was still the same as always.

"But I didn't feel anything at all."

"Because my consciousness will only awaken when you truly unleash the full power of your dream. The reason you haven't realized it yet is because you haven't fully unleashed the power of your dream."

"I see, so I didn't do a good enough job..."

Ying lowered her head.

"Because there are conditions for unleashing the full power of a dream."

The reason why the future Shadow was able to unleash the full power of Dream Heart was because she was willing to move forward with Inatsumi for the sake of Inatsumi's dream, and for this she did not hesitate to overturn her own eternity, and wave Dream Heart in her hand at the general who faithfully carried out her eternal plan.

This is completely different from her current self, who has rejected the wishes of Inazuma's subjects. At that time, the blade she wielded carried not only her own power but also a promise to Inazuma's subjects to move forward. Only then could the power of her single-minded dream be fully unleashed.

"You can't understand those things right now, so I won't tell you. You need to experience them for yourself. Only when you experience them will they truly have an effect and allow you to plant the Divine Cherry Tree."

"Should I plant the Divine Cherry Tree?"

Ying was very surprised. She had no idea where the Divine Cherry Tree came from, and how could she have planted it?

"That's right, you planted the Divine Cherry Tree, and you planted it in the future."

"future?"

The Inazuma Divine Cherry Tree is very special. It was planted by Kage 500 years in the future and then grew in the past 500 years ago. For Kage, the tree spans 1000 years of time. This is a miracle created by the time power possessed by Ishtar. During these 500 years, it has protected the entire Inazuma Islands.

However, Shadow is unaware of this. She doesn't even know where the Divine Cherry Tree grew from. She only knows that she went to Kanria and returned with news of a real death. Then Shadow went up the mountain and a Divine Cherry Tree appeared. Moreover, in Inazuma's memory, this tree has existed since ancient times.

Kage didn't know what happened, but the power of the Divine Cherry Tree could protect Inazuma, so she asked Yae to guard the Divine Cherry Tree, which is why the Divine Cherry Tree has turned into its current fox-like appearance.

"That's right. I can't tell you the specifics now. You need to experience it for yourself. Just like I said, you can only fully understand it when you can unleash the full power of your dream. You will understand this in the future."

After Zhen finished speaking, he handed his dream wholeheartedly to Ying.

"Now, put it away and use it properly."

History cannot be broken. On the continent of Teyvat, if history is broken, reality will truly change, and new memories will be added to everyone in the world of Teyvat to cover up the true history of the past.

Li Yue didn't want her dream to go awry, causing her true consciousness to dissipate, and then the true essence within her to vanish as well. Although she wasn't affected by the World Tree, she didn't know if the true essence would be affected. Before she could control the World Tree through Nasita, she wanted to ensure her safety as much as possible.

Ying withdrew her dream and looked at Zhen.

"Then why were you inside the cherry blossom tree?"

"After you planted the Divine Cherry Tree, my consciousness dissipated."

"Wait, didn't you say you were alright? Why did you disappear?"

Ying was getting anxious.

"Shadow, don't panic, listen to me."

He pressed his hand against Ying's shoulder.

"I'm right here now, which means I'm fine."

"Although my consciousness dissipated, the Divine Cherry Tree completely collected it, and my consciousness was planted with the Divine Cherry Tree, sleeping in it until recently when it was awakened by this new Rock King."

“I know, the Divine Child told me before.”

Shadow was also surprised that this new Rock King had such an ability.

"It's probably because he's not from Teyvat. Li Yue is from outside Teyvat and can come and go freely. Plus, he's a very nice person, so Morax chose to entrust the godhood to him."

"Moreover, he has good insights into many things about Teyvat."

"Indeed, although we didn't talk much before, some of the things he said really enlightened me."

Ying recalled what Li Yue had said on Hachiyū Island: she should stand in front of the Inazuma soldiers, not stay in the castle tower.

"So what are you going to do next? Do you need to find a way to get out of his body?"

“No, Li Yue’s power is very special. We demons have completely merged into his soul and are nourished by a special power within his soul. If we leave his soul, we will completely dissipate.”

"Then it's better not to come out!"

Although it was true that it could not be separated, it was still better than dissipating. Ying immediately chose to let it stay in Li Yue's body.

"And this is enough. Your return is enough."

"It's not just me. According to Li Yue's memories, Fox Palace's consciousness hasn't completely dissipated. In other words, as long as Li Yue is willing to take action, Fox Palace can also come back to life."

"Really!?"

The door was pushed open, and Yae no Miko rushed in.

Both Kage and Shin looked at Yae no Miko speechlessly. So you've been eavesdropping outside all this time!

"Hahaha, sorry, I've come at the wrong time."

Yae no Miko smiled awkwardly and prepared to leave.

"No, little god, you've come at just the right time."

He waved to the divine child.

"Come here, quickly transform into a little fox and let me pet you!"

The goddess rolled her eyes in exasperation, but still obediently turned into a pink fox and jumped into the real person's arms.

Touching the beautiful, soft fur of the divine child while leaning against Shadow's shoulder was incredibly pleasant.

"Fox Abode Palace was devoured by filth, but her memories were too vast for the filth to completely consume. Instead, the filth and Fox Abode Palace's memories mixed together, creating a vessel containing Fox Abode Palace's memories. Li Yue has the ability to separate matter and even concepts. As long as we ask Li Yue to remove the filth from that vessel, Fox Abode Palace can return to us."

"that is really good!"

Ying laughed with joy. 500 years had passed, and she was happier than ever before. They were really back, and the Fox Palace was coming back too. Two of her former companions had returned at once. There was nothing happier than this.

"Alright, I've finished talking about my business. Now it's time to talk about yours."

She spoke with a genuine smile, her eyes almost completely closed, and her smile looked so gentle.

"Hey, Shadow, can you tell me how you turned Inazuma into this mess?"

Ying, who had just been happy, froze instantly.

"Yes, yes, how did Inazuma become such a mess? It's really intriguing."

Yae no Miko was also in Shin's arms, smiling as she looked at Kage and chiming in with a question, only to be met with a death stare from Kage.

But so what if I'm stared at? Do I, the Eightfold Divine Child, fear?

Ah, that feels so good! If I had dared to talk to Shadow before, Shadow would have drawn his sword and slashed at me. Although I was able to dodge every time thanks to my agility, I would still get hit by the lightning from time to time. It would take a long time for the burnt fur to fall off and for new fur to grow back.

but now!

Shadow! The days when you could cut me down at will are over! Now, I've returned to the embrace of truth!

"Hey, Shadow, can you tell me why?"

Holding the triumphant Yae no Miko in her arms, she softly pressed for an answer.

However, to Ying, that gentle voice and the smile that seemed incredibly gentle to outsiders were terrifying. Her back was instantly soaked with sweat, and she gave the answer she had prepared beforehand with extreme stiffness.

"This...this...this was all done by the general!"

【? 】

162. Naughty little sister deserves a spanking!

"You issued a lockdown order, which made it impossible for the villagers on Narukami Island to survive by growing commercial crops for foreign trade. Do you think we should fight?"

"But I issued the lockdown order in order to..."

"Um!?"

"He deserves...he deserves to be hit."

Snapped--

Feel the texture in your hand; General Raiden's butt is indeed incredibly soft! Is this a super puppet created using Raiden's own body? Amazing!

The hand that was patting Shadow's buttocks gently rubbed it, while [True] continued to scold him.

"You allow your subordinates to amass wealth everywhere, exploiting merchants, even the Inazuma merchants, making it impossible for them to survive. Shouldn't you be punished?"

"What? The Imperial Envoy for Surveying and Deploying actually did...."

"Um!?"

"He deserves...he deserves to be hit."

Snapped--

woo-

Although it really didn't hurt at all when I slapped her, and I was even worried that I would hurt myself, so I gently rubbed it afterward, it still felt so embarrassing. After all, it would be one thing if no one was watching, but there was a goddess watching. If I was really spanked in front of the goddess, she would laugh at me for a long time.

"Your subordinates, the Heavenly Leaders, have been persecuting the people of Inazuma. The villagers on Bayun Island have fallen ill because of a vengeful spirit, and instead of helping them, they have drowned them all. Yet you so easily believed their claims that nothing happened. Shouldn't you have been punished?"

"What? The Heavenly Court is following their lead...."

"Um!?"

"Yes... he deserves to be hit."

Snapped--
