However, a figure appeared in front of him at an incredible speed.

It blocked the blow.

Man Ye held a long sword in his hand, blocking the way. The divine eye of his friend in his arms emitted a blazing light that pierced through his clothes with an unstoppable force.

"There will always be creatures on earth that dare to face the might of thunder!"

His friend's words echoed in his ears once more, and his friend's illusory figure seemed to stand beside him. The two of them gripped their long swords and caught the unexpected blow.

With a forceful push, the terrifying blade of light vanished without a trace.

The general took a step back, his eyes showing surprise.

Wan Ye turned to look at the sky; in the backlight, his figure seemed to be edged with gold.

He smiled and said:

“I couldn’t save him before, but I absolutely cannot watch my friend die in front of me again.”

A blazing light emanated from his Eye of God, and the same light emanated from the several Eyes of God on the Thousand-Handed, Hundred-Eyed God statue, each a different color.

The Thunder General in the Pure Land opened his eyes, then closed them.

A pure land, invisible to ordinary people, unfolded behind her, enveloping the sky, and then closed.

As the void suddenly vanished, Wan Ye abruptly looked at General Raiden.

Her intuition told her that Kong's sudden disappearance was related to her.

"You took my blow, so I'll allow you to leave." The general sheathed his sword.

Wan Ye gritted his teeth and gripped the long sword in his hand tightly.

"He's my friend, I'm taking him with me when I leave here!"

"He is a variable, an eternal enemy, and an existence that must be destroyed."

The general narrowed his eyes:

"Do you wish to be an enemy of eternity?"

"How could I dare to be an enemy of eternity? I only know that he is my friend!"

A look of unwavering determination filled Wan Ye's eyes.

He decided he would never watch his friend die before his eyes again, he decided he would never!

The general looked calmly at the young man before him, a hint of admiration in his usually unwavering eyes.

I admire his affection and courage.

"Just because you can withstand one of my blows doesn't mean you can withstand a second. You should think it through."

Wan Ye assumed an attack stance. "I've made up my mind!"

The general was somewhat regretful, but still drew his long sword.

"Damn it, what's Wan Ye doing here!"

Upon seeing Wan Ye suddenly appear, Jiang Bai immediately stood up.

He never expected Wan Ye to appear here; he thought Wan Ye had already gone to sea again with Bei Dou's ship!

In this situation, it's clear that Manyo is going to fight the general!

"No, Sora will be fine, but we can't just watch Man'yeo die!"

Seeing that Wanye was fighting with the general, he flashed and turned into a streak of light, heading straight for the Tenshukaku.

Hu Tao tried to pull him, but couldn't, and stomped her feet on the roof in anger.

"Damn it! They said they wouldn't interfere! They went back on their word again!"

She was both angry and worried.

I'm worried about Sora, I'm worried about Manyo, but I'm even more worried about the guy who just rushed out!

"So what if it's defying the gods! This hall master is really going to give it a try today!"

She darted out, transforming into a fiery butterfly, leaping across rooftops and quickly traversing several rooftops, heading towards the castle tower.

In the sunlight, two figures, like dazzling streaks of light, sped toward the Sky Guardian Pavilion, one after the other.

Chapter 525: Only Deception Can Be Used

The castle tower was unusually noisy today.

The swords flashed fiercely, and Manye suffered a crushing defeat.

Jiang Bai leaped into the gap between Wan Ye and the general. He was wearing the black cloak given to him by the Eightfold Divine Child, and the protective charm she had given him. He covered the lower half of his face with a cloth, trying to conceal his presence.

Although Jiang Bai felt there was little chance of hiding his true identity from the general, he still had to give it a try.

What if!

He watched as the general awkwardly waved his hand.

"Let's talk this out. If we can resolve our problems peacefully, let's do so. There's no need for fighting! The castle tower is going to be destroyed..."

"Jiang Bai..." Wan Ye immediately recognized whose voice it was.

Looking at the figure blocking his way, a warm feeling washed over him.

The general narrowed his eyes. "And who are you? You're hiding your true identity."

"To tell you the truth, I am a disciple of the Rock King Emperor. I came to Inazuma this time on the Emperor's orders to deliver wine to you, General."

Jiang Bai took out a flask of wine brewed by Zhongli and started making things up on the spot.

There's no other way; we can't win by fighting, so we can only try a verbal offensive.

"Master said that the last time he drank with you all was a thousand years ago. Now he has laid down his duties, and Liyue has entered the human era. However, thousands of years have passed, and the old friends are no longer here. He feels melancholy, so he asked me to bring a pot of wine..."

The general looked at the wine jug, his gaze falling on Jiang Bai.

When Shadow created the general, he also instilled some important memories into the general's mind.

She naturally possessed memories of the Seven Gods.

But she was not the Shadow, and she never drank with the Seven Gods.

Who knows whether the person hiding their face in front of you is telling the truth or not?

Seemingly feeling that words alone were not convincing enough, Jiang Bai reached into his pocket and pulled out the [Jade Bottle Carved from Rock].

According to the old man, he made this when he was drinking with Qi Shen back then, and he made seven of them.

He even drank from this wine bottle when he first bought it, so it must still have his scent on it.

Upon seeing the wine vessel, the general's imposing manner softened slightly.

With a flick of her finger, the wine pot flew up and landed in her hand. She didn't open it, but simply put it away.

But then, a terrifying aura was unleashed without reservation.

She slightly turned her wrist, and the gleaming blade reflected a cold light.

"Take this blow, leave Inazuma, and I'll spare your life."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Bai realized he was in trouble; he had been recognized!

Bai Yuan appeared in his hand, and he pulled Wan Ye back quickly to create distance.

"Wanye, hurry and go! Sora will be alright!"

Wan Ye was momentarily stunned. "But you..."

Jiang Bai smiled confidently, his eyes showing no fear.

"Don't worry, it's just one cut, I can handle it."

The divine child's words did have some effect. After learning that he was the Emperor's disciple, the general indeed changed his initial attitude.

Unfortunately, he didn't even have time to speak when he was first beheaded by the general.

I hope the general won't go too far. The hall master is here; it would be too embarrassing if he were beaten too badly.

“But…” Wan Ye looked at the falling fiery red figure.

But then Walnut arrived...

Hu Tao, who had rushed over, had no idea what had happened. She was engulfed in scorching flames, holding a long spear, and stood in front of Jiang Bai.

She looked directly at the high and mighty god, her expression showing no fear or wavering.

Despite his slender frame, his back view resembled a solid wall.

"If you want to touch him, you'll have to get past me first!"

Their clear and resolute words spoke with unwavering conviction, demonstrating a fearless acceptance of death despite the perilous situation.

Jiang Bai was stunned when he saw Hu Tao blocking his way.

He couldn't describe his feelings; it was as if molten lava was churning inside him, burning his heart to a scorching heat.

Seeing yet another person jump out, the general remained silent for a while, seemingly speechless at this story of the Calabash Brothers saving their grandfather, to the point that he stopped in his tracks.

"Get out of the way."

"If you want to kill him, you'll have to step over my dead body first!"

General: "..."

Although I am a doll, I also have emotions!

Seeing that the general seemed a little angry, Jiang Bai quickly reached out and poked Hu Tao's back.

"The sect leader is fine. It was just one stab; I can take it."

Hu Tao looked at him, bewildered. "What do you mean, just one cut?"

"The general said he would let me go if I could take one of her blows."

"Why didn't you say so earlier!"

The flames on Hu Tao's body stopped abruptly, and she quickly retreated, glaring at him at the same time.

I'll settle the score with you when we get back!

Jiang Bai clasped his hands together and awkwardly smiled as an apology.

Hu Tao led Wan Ye aside and found a good spot to start eating sunflower seeds.

Wan Ye was completely bewildered as he looked at the sunflower seeds placed in his hand.

They were just moments ago on the verge of exchanging blows and ready to die, how come they're now eating sunflower seeds?

Hu Tao gritted her teeth, as if the melon seed in her mouth had turned into Jiang Bai (a type of Chinese liquor). She bit down hard, and the melon seed shattered into pieces.

She swallowed the sunflower seed shells and seeds whole, and sneered:

"He's quite the hero, but if he can't even withstand a single blow, he shouldn't go back to the Hall of Rebirth. He might as well die here and I'll just cremate him on the spot!"

A bead of cold sweat trickled down Wan Ye's forehead. Feeling somewhat guilty, he silently mourned for Jiang Bai in his heart.

The general looked at Jiang Bai expressionlessly. With a gentle wave of her hand, all the unconscious soldiers around her flew into the castle tower.

She acknowledged Jiang Bai's strength, so she would use all her power in this strike.

In front of the shattered castle tower, two people stood facing each other, each holding a long sword.

An oppressive atmosphere permeated the air, and the atmosphere seemed to stagnate.

A leaf drifted down, and the general moved.

A deafening roar of thunder erupted, and lightning patterns appeared behind her.

Clang!

The sky and earth changed color, and the wind and clouds swirled upside down.

The gleaming blade flashed like lightning, seemingly tearing space apart and leaving a deep purple mark.

Jiang Bai also made a move.
