He changed Tiwat

Thunder rumbled.

"Clap."

Something fell into Xin Yan's hands.

Xin Yan looked at the water droplets on the back of her hand in surprise—

"It's raining..."

The rain fell from the sky.

At the same time, Han Fulai's voice came from the sky, and even the rumbling thunder could not drown out his deep voice:

"People of the Sea Gods, two thousand years ago, the Great God Orobas used scales and bones as steps and flesh and blood as boats to build the Sea God Island for the ancestors of the Sea Gods, freeing them from the darkness beneath the abyss. Your ancestors made a sorrowful vow before the Great God's eye, hoping to establish a sea kingdom free from robbery, bullying, and oppression."

"Two years ago, thunder cleaved the heavens and the earth, and the divine decree of the hunt was issued. In this time of peril, the people of the sea stood tall with unyielding spirit, sounded the horn of resistance against the gods, and ultimately won the defeat of the oppressors and the peace we enjoy today with blood and fire."

"From the Kingdom of White Night to the Island of the Sea God, from the Palace of the Abyss to the Coral Palace, wherever the Sea God breathes, there are places where warriors are buried."

"And today, faced with the calamity of 'holy land', will you yield?"

His words, carried by the thunder and rain, resounded throughout the entire island of Haiqi.

“We will not yield,” Xin Hai replied.

Goro, Todoroki, and the others around her gave the same answer.

In the Coral Palace, in Wanglong Village, on the beach, and in the fields, the same voice kept ringing out. These voices came together, united in purpose, and resounded through the sky.

"I have heard your wishes."

An echo reverberated through the sky.

“Therefore, I hereby swear: I will ensure that the people of the sea will enjoy the nourishment of their land, carry out the will of their ancestors, and jointly safeguard the world bestowed by their gods.”

"Let our descendants have a bright past, a fulfilling future, and a present that is no longer gloomy."

White crystals rose from the soil of Haizhi Island.

The crystals coalesced into a single entity, transforming into a pure white dragon that soared into the sky.

This day is October 1st, Liyue Calendar 37XX.

PS: Finally finished recounting the final hidden storyline in the Lower Palace. The appearance of the Great Serpent in the Lower Palace, the existence of the "Spirit of the Eternal World," and the fact that this place was originally the land of the Dragon Lizard all hint that this place was originally "outside the world." These elements also echo the cycle of reincarnation in Teyvat, discussing what would happen to humanity on the continent of Teyvat without the "leyline cycle" of "reincarnation." From this perspective, the rule of the Sky Isles has its necessity and rationale.

With the Abyss Palace arc over, the next step is to combine the terrible movies and the Divine Child together, lol.

The Inazuma arc is coming to an end in the next few days. It's been tough. *wipes sweat*

Chapter 352 Of course, it's to marry you

The celebration banquet for the "Three Realms Road Festival" that evening was hosted by the shrine maiden Ruko, who initiated the event.

The Coral Palace brought out all the island's delicacies to entertain the great heroes who helped Umiji Island reverse its "sacred transformation." The shrine maidens also organized a Umiji-style song and dance performance, with Ruko personally performing the Coral Palace's "Fish-Dragon Dance" for everyone.

The workers from Liyue also benefited this time, not only enjoying song and dance performances, but also eating a seafood feast that left everyone with full bellies.

But Ying, who was the guest of honor, didn't get to eat much of the food... Paimon ate it all.

Pai's cheeks were stuffed full, but his hands kept grabbing at the plate in front of Ying, complaining as he did so: "You actually forgot me in Yuanxia Palace, I'm angry! Humph!"

"That's why I treated you to a big meal, Paimon, look, it's all your favorite food..."

Ying could only stand by with her hands clasped together and a forced smile, thinking to herself, "Isn't it Paimon who's too scared to fly up here?"

To be honest, when Ying was holding Han Fulai's hand and flying into the sky with him on the pillar of light of the "Great Sun Imperial Carriage," she really forgot about Paimon at the Fukushita Palace. It was the Divine Child who brought Paimon out later... So she genuinely apologized to Paimon...

The other guest of honor, Han Fulai, wasn't having an easy time either. He was currently with Shenzi outside the venue, enjoying the cold wind—or rather, admiring the moon.

Not only did she admire the moon, but the divine child was also holding a book and reciting poetry.

The poem says: "The world is fickle and turbulent, all things change like a flickering candle. The husband is a fickle man, the new bride is as beautiful as jade."

As the priestess recited the words, she was on the verge of tears: "...Alas, all I see is the laughter of the new bride, but I hear no weeping of the old."

Han Fulai, standing next to him, was speechless. Shenzi had definitely chosen to recite this song, "The Beauty," on purpose.

She said she wanted to see the "relics" left by her ancestors, so Han Fulai showed her the book of classical Chinese poetry that he always carried with him. As a result, the editor-in-chief read ten lines at a glance and had already memorized all the poems of lamentation in the collection...

Well, considering that this book of ancient poems was written by her ancestor Gu Hua, it seems reasonable for the divine child to memorize "the poems written by her ancestor"... No, where am I being fickle?

Han Fulai looked distressed, knowing there was no way to explain this.

When he "ascended to godhood," he did indeed take Yingmei's hand in front of the god's son and "fly away" together—there was no other way!

He wanted to accomplish the great feat of "washing salt" across the entire island of Umiji, but he couldn't do it alone. He definitely needed the help of the newly appointed "Umiji Great God"... But he couldn't say that, because it would sound like he was complaining that the divine child couldn't help. So he could only keep it to himself.

After all, he had a "familiar contract" with the goddess. When he "ascended to godhood," the one who "ascended" with him was not the goddess who was his "familiar," but another girl. Anyone would be angry about that.

The fact that the goddess didn't argue with him in front of Ying was already a great concession on her part.

Moreover, the Divine Child really helped him a lot this time, whether it was translating the ancient language of the Sea God or cracking the "Shiranui Gen" code, it would have been impossible without the Divine Child.

Even obtaining the inheritance left by Bai Chen was all thanks to the Divine Son.

It can be said that without the divine son, he would never have been able to succeed in his "ascension to godhood".

Miss Fox has done both good and hard work this time, so what's wrong with her throwing a little tantrum?

Of course!

When it comes to giving the gods the cold shoulder, the Divine Child is definitely a professional. When she was a servant of the Thunder God, she gave the Thunder God plenty of attitude, and the same goes for her as a servant of the "Salt King Emperor"...

So Han Fulai could only accompany the goddess to watch the moon. He didn't get to eat a single bite at the victory banquet, let alone watch the beautiful priestess dance—what are you looking at? Is she prettier than our High Priestess?

This caused trouble for the other shrine maiden.

Shinkai, the "human goddess priestess" of Haiji Island, had been quietly standing behind the two people who were admiring the moon for almost half an hour.

She had so much to say to Han Fulai, the benefactor who had saved Haiqi Island twice, so much gratitude, and so much more than that, which she wanted to dedicate to him on this beautiful night…

But whether it was intentional or not, the divine child held onto Han Fulai and wouldn't leave, spending a full half hour admiring the moon and reciting poetry, and it seemed like it could continue for a long time.

No, this guy did it on purpose!

Xin Hai finally understood: the pink-haired fox was "asserting its dominance."

As the art of war says: When the enemy advances, we retreat; when the enemy retreats, we pursue.

Hmph, just wait, one day I'll take advantage of your weakness!

The strategist pursed her lips and decided to go to the "secret base" to study the military books some more.

Hearing that the scheming fish had slipped away, the Divine Child's fox ears twitched slightly, and the resentment on her face finally turned into a smile. The content of her words also took a 180-degree turn: "Speaking of which, to celebrate your successful 'ascension to godhood,' shouldn't we have some special celebrations tonight?"

Her attitude changed so drastically that Han Fulai was momentarily taken aback and asked in bewilderment, "What activity?"

The divine child revealed a fox-like smile, or more accurately, a "vixen-like" smile.

Holding a book in one hand, she was already drawing circles on his chest with the other: "Of course... it's about doing some loving things with my god!"

That night, Han Fulai and the Divine Child studied the method of "the union of male and female essences, from which all things are born" in the sacred Coral Palace until late into the night...

The next morning, the palace priestess, her stomach full, woke up contentedly on her jeweled clam shell bed, only to find that the deity who should have been lying beside her was no longer there.

After ascending to godhood, Han Fulai made significant progress in his physical strength. It seemed that the divine child alone could no longer make him "dismiss the emperor from morning court"...

However, Han Fulai's refusal to sleep in did not seem to be due to his need to attend the "early court session".

The divine child could hear someone breathing outside the door, mixed with the sound of sharp weapons cutting through the air.

She got up, put on her clothes, and leaned against the door to look out—Han Fulai was doing his "morning prayers" in the courtyard at that moment.

It was the first time the Divine Child had ever seen him wielding the Salt Sorrow Spear, practicing his spear techniques meticulously, move by move.

Han Fulai didn't know many spear techniques. Apart from a few fancy spear moves for showing off, he only knew the basic spear techniques that Shen He taught him, such as "point thrust, thrust, and block".

Even basic marksmanship techniques like thrusting and sweeping were practiced very seriously; he would repeat each move at least a hundred times before moving on to the next.

Han Fulai certainly heard the sound of the goddess getting up, but he didn't put away Shio Ai and greet the goddess until the practice was over.

The goddess asked with a look of curiosity, "Why did you suddenly decide to practice marksmanship?"

In her memory, Han Fulai basically used the gun as a "magic weapon," and his gun skills were more like "gun control techniques"—and this gun technique was probably not as powerful as his other gun technique...

Yes, a marksmanship that even the God Child finds impressive must be truly remarkable.

Upon hearing the goddess's question, Han Fulai replied earnestly, "Of course, it's to marry you."

Chapter 353 Xingqiu, help me cultivate!

The goddess's face immediately turned red to the roots of her ears.

The court lady, who has seen all the wonders of the world, is not the kind of shy girl who is easily embarrassed.

Narukami Taisha Shrine is the designated venue for "divine wedding ceremonies." Over the centuries, the chief priest has helped countless brides put on their "shiromuku" (white kimono), offered blessings to countless newlyweds, and heard countless vows of eternal love...

She was already tired of hearing sweet words.

The cunning fox spirit, who could see through people's hearts, had watched countless couples before the statues of gods swear to the heavens that they would be together forever, but very few of them were truly sincere.

What's the point of saying sweet nothings if you don't mean them?

But it depends on who says it.

She was willing to believe any sweet words he uttered.

Because he always does what he says.

The goddess just wanted him to talk more; she loved to hear as much as he said.

Seeing the shy, girlish appearance of the goddess, Han Fulai laughed: "What? Has Lord Gongsi forgotten why we went to the Abyss Palace in the first place?"

The divine child was slightly taken aback, then chuckled.

Yes, so much had happened in Yuanxia Palace that she had momentarily forgotten her original purpose for going there.

It is true that Han Fulai went to Yuanxia Palace to "ascend to godhood," but his purpose in doing so was to marry her.

“If you truly wish to take the divine child as your ‘fellowship’ as a ‘god’… then please discuss this matter with me as a ‘god’.”

—That's what Ying said at the time.

That's why he went to "ascend to godhood".

Of course, the power of "time governance" is very important to Han Bok-rae; sooner or later, he will go to Yeonha Palace.

But since it's "sooner or later," there's no need to rush.

According to his original plan, he should at least resolve the internal affairs of Inazuma and the food problem on Umijima before "ascending to godhood"—moreover, as the new "Minister of the Interior" of the shogunate, he originally had a fairly harmonious relationship with Okage, and it would never have come to this point where they were even embarrassed to meet.

Sigh, all these years have passed, and Ah Ying is still as stubborn as ever...

The goddess produced a small mirror from somewhere and looked at her face repeatedly: "Oh dear, my sin is that I am too beautiful—two gods are fighting over me, I am truly a 'femme fatale'!"

Han Fulai was used to Shenzi's jokes, so he put his arm around her waist and kissed her on the cheek: "Yes, I will definitely snatch you away from Ying."

The two were chatting and laughing when the courtyard gate was suddenly pushed open.

"Brother Han! I heard you're back..."

The visitor was Xingqiu.

As the president of the "Liyue Laborers Association" and Liyue's trade representative, Xin Yan and his group's arrival at Haiqi Island was naturally coordinated by Xing Qiu.

During the days when Han Fulai went to Yuanxia Palace, Xingqiu ran around doing a lot of things—such as personnel arrangements, material transportation, and site selection for the construction of workers' dormitories, etc. He was almost too busy to even have a moment to rest.

It's fortunate that Xingqiu, the heir of the "Feiyun Chamber of Commerce" who is familiar with the business, is there. Otherwise, Xin Yan really wouldn't be able to handle so many miscellaneous matters on his own. The food, clothing, housing, and transportation of hundreds of people are not something that just anyone can manage.

Xin Yan and his team were just the first batch of construction workers; more would be arriving later. Furthermore, according to the "Liyue-Haihei Peace Treaty," the Liyue navy would also gain a permanent base on Haiqi Island, necessitating the expansion of the port and the construction of barracks facilities…

Yesterday, when Han Fulai and the others returned from Yuanxia Palace, Xingqiu happened to go to Gantian Village to purchase a batch of Violet Melon seeds. He planned to have Xin Yan and the others set up a control group to compare the growth of Inazuma's native crops and Liyue's crops, so he missed the celebration banquet.

Han Fulai and Ying made such a big scene yesterday, with all the upheavals and dragons flying in the sky, that Xingqiu, who was far away on Mingshen Island, saw it all. So she set off for Haiqi Island before dawn the next day.

Ostensibly, she came to see Han Fulai about a work report from the Labor Association, but she knew it was just an excuse...

So what if it's an excuse? Am I worried that my sworn brother isn't good enough?

Even if I don't have a job, why can't I see him if I want to?

Anyway, after a less intense internal struggle, Xingqiu ran to the Coral Palace to find her Brother Han.

Unexpectedly, when I opened the door, I saw Brother Han and a certain pink-haired fox hugging each other very affectionately...

Xingqiu silently took a half step back, wanting to avoid it, but then stopped—she felt inexplicably wronged.

She was the one who arrived first... Whether it was getting to know Brother Han, fighting for justice together, or becoming sworn brothers, it was all her doing it first...
