The Anxious Kujou Clan Head

"No way, this is hilarious!"

Venti thought to herself as she watched the shadow.

He was drinking wine, and his face was beaming with joy.

Although it was only for a brief moment, he could still clearly see the shadow's loss of composure.

Venti still remembered how confidently Ying had spoken when they met before, as if he wouldn't be affected.

Looking at her outburst now, Venti really wanted to take out a Kamera and film it.

Unfortunately, he really didn't dare.

Enraged, Beelzebul dared not kill Bai Ye, but she was absolutely capable of killing Barbatos.

Venti doesn't want to be chased all the way from Inazuma to Mondstadt.

It's such a pity, such a real pity.

At that moment, he seemed to notice a cold gaze fixed on him. Venti knew that Shadow had spotted him, and sensing something was wrong, he immediately moved outside.

I'm outta here, I've had enough fun.

Ying withdrew her gaze and looked at Bai Ye.

... Let the general handle it.

Looking at Bai Ye always reminded her of the past, and her heart was still in turmoil. To avoid any harm that her actions might cause to Eternity, she chose to let Raiden Shogun handle these matters.

Wasn't the reason she created Raiden Shogun so that she could live forever?

In an instant, Bai Ye sensed that the Thunder God before him seemed to have undergone a sudden change in temperament.

Raiden Shogun has arrived.

She looked at Bai Ye, her gaze becoming calm.

Raiden Shogun is a puppet created by Shadow, and for the time being, Bai Ye's charm will not affect her life form.

However, she couldn't help but admire the charm of the person before her; even Gods couldn't resist it. That exquisite face—even she herself couldn't help but admire it.

Then, Raiden Shogun spoke up, "Bai Ye, the boy who dealt with the remnants of the Liyue Archon Residue?"

"Yes."

Bai Ye nodded.

"From now on, the affairs of Yashiori Island are entirely entrusted to you," Raiden Shogun said. "I will order all the men of the Tri-Commission on Yashiori Island to obey your orders, and everyone in Inazuma City except the leader of the Tri-Commission will be at your disposal. I hope you can resolve the matter of the evil spirit as soon as possible. At that time, I will grant your wish."

Even a single glance from Ying has caused Raiden Shogun; there's no guarantee what might happen if he looked a few more times. Therefore, it's best to let Bai Ye begin his work as soon as possible, and then fulfill his wish once the matter is resolved.

As for having the Tri-Commission obey Bai Ye on Yashiori Island, it was also to make his activities more convenient. With himself stationed at the Tenshukaku, Inazuma Eternal wouldn't cause any trouble.

"I understand. I will resolve the matter of the evil spirit on Yashiori Island as soon as possible."

He wanted to defeat the Gods Orobas as soon as possible so he could come to Kage to learn puppet-making techniques. This was his main purpose in coming to Inazuma, and he would never forget it.

"Um."

Raiden Shogun was very satisfied with Bai Ye's attitude.

The boy's charm wasn't something he actively exuded. He was, in fact, an extremely earnest, innocent, and rule-abiding young man. It was inevitable that she would feel some dislike towards such a boy.

The fault that will last forever does not lie with him; he is innocent.

Hopefully he can finish things soon, so that leaving Inazuma won't affect Eternal.

Bai Ye then left, Raiden Shogun watched him go.

Even the shadows in the Sanctum of Euthymia could sense something.

Her thoughts now align with those of Raiden Shogun.

For the sake of eternity, Bai Ye should leave Inazuma as soon as possible.

After leaving the Tenshukaku, Bai Ye met up with Hu Tao, Shenhe, Kujou Sara, Ayaka, and Ayato were outside.

Hu Tao breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Bai Ye come out.

"Thank God, you're finally out."

She walked up to Bai Ye, patted his shoulder, and said...

"We're here to deal with the evil spirit, there's no way Raiden Shogun could do anything to me." Hearing Hu Tao say this, Bai Ye was both amused and exasperated.

"No, I'm not worried about Raiden Shogun hurting you." Hu Tao looked at the Otsukemono had returned to their posts and said softly, "I'm worried that Raiden Shogun will detain you."

Hu Tao had no doubt about just how outrageous the charm of her 'friend' and the first Guest Official of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor was.

What if Raiden Shogun really decides to detain Bai Ye? She's one of the Seven Archons; I, with my weak arms and legs, really can't beat her.

Even if you were to go find Zhongli, it probably wouldn't work.

Zhongli Dingtian is just an Adepti; he can't defeat Raiden Shogun.

Sigh, I'd be relieved if Zhongli were the Rex Lapis.

Hu Tao thought to herself.

"Why is Raiden Shogun detaining me for no reason?"

"You know why yourself." Hu Tao rolled her eyes at Bai Ye.

Shenhe nodded in agreement.

Ayato asked with some concern:

"Well? What did the Shogun say?"

Bai Ye replied to him, "What else can I do? Next, I will take charge of dealing with the evil spirits on Yashiori Island. Moreover, I can also mobilize the people of you Tri-Commission to go to Yashiori Island for operations."

"This power is truly immense."

Raiden Shogun allowed Bai Ye to freely allocate the manpower of the Tri-Commission. If Bai Ye were not a Liyue native, but a member of the Tri-Commission, he could easily send the other two commissioners to carry out arduous or even life-threatening tasks. Even if others questioned him, he wouldn't need to explain to anyone, and no one would dare to disobey the Shogun's orders.

Furthermore, Bai Ye will have full authority over matters concerning Yashiori Island, which is the front line of the war. Bai Ye can intervene in the battle between Bai Ye and Watatsumi Island.

Ayato had a thought that Bai Ye would help him fight against the increasingly powerful Tenryou Commission.

Looking at the innocent-looking boy, he decided to abandon the idea.

It's still a bit repulsive for a young boy like Ryo to do dirty things.

It's best to let him successfully complete the task of exorcising the spirit.

Even one's own younger sister is bound to get involved in some shady dealings, so Bai Ye is truly exceptional.

It is best to avoid getting dirty.

As Bai Ye and the others were saying this, they noticed someone approaching them.

Upon seeing this person, Kujou Sara immediately greeted him, "Master."

Ayato looked at Kujou Takayuki and smiled slightly, saying, "It's the head of the Kujou Clan! I didn't expect you to come here."

"Ahem, the head of the Divine Realm can spend an entire day with guests from Liyue. As the head of the Tenryou Commission, is there any problem with you making a special trip to visit your guests?"

Kujou Takayuki looked at Kamishiro Ayato with a similar smile.

At that moment, he also greeted Bai Ye, saying, "Welcome, guest from Liyue who has traveled a long way to Inazuma. Rest assured, we, the Tenryou Commission, will take responsibility for your safety in Inazuma. Salo..."

"Master, I am here."

"Remember to continue to protect your guests."

"Yes."

Kujou Sara's heart pounded. Was she still going to be responsible for protecting Bai Ye?

This is truly a very perplexing matter.

She was both happy to continue spending time with Bai Ye and worried that she might continue to lose her composure.

Kujou Sara is in a dilemma.

At this moment, Kujou Takayuki's gaze had already turned to Bai Ye.

To be honest, Kujou Takayuki is quite good-looking; you can tell he must have been a handsome guy in his youth. Looking at Bai Ye, his expression seemed quite friendly, but Bai Ye always felt very uncomfortable.

"This guy sees nothing in you but greed. He's craving something from you."

Just as he was thinking this, Bai Ye felt a voice coming from his jade pendant.

It's Asmodeus's voice.

Even while Morax was making her the jade pendant, Asmodeus could sense the desire of the people around her for the Bai Ye.

Previously, it was all lust, and she didn't even bother to remind him. After all, even she herself, when she saw Bai Ye, didn't arouse his lust but instead became consumed by her own desires. It was perfectly normal for others to feel an overwhelming lust upon seeing Bai Ye.

Today, it was obvious that greed had appeared before Asmodeus, so she naturally had to remind Bai Ye.

This little guy can't be tricked.

"Yes, I know, I'll be careful. But I won't agree to anything he wants from me."

Bai Ye thanked Asmodeus.

I think the head of the Kujou Clan heard my conversation with Ayato and the Kamisato Ayato very clearly. He knows I can easily trick the Tri-Commission, but why would he convince me to help him?

Bai Ye was pondering her thoughts, Kujou Takayuki was also conflicted at that moment.

"Why haven't we heard anything from A-Yi and the others yet?"

If news of A-Yi comes now, he can use it to threaten Bai Ye.

Now that he has nothing, there's nothing he can do.

He heard clearly what Bai Ye had just said.

The moment he heard the news, a whole bunch of ideas about how to trick the other two magistrates flashed through his mind. If he completely swindled these two magistrates out of their manpower, wouldn't Inazuma then become the sole ruler of the Tenryou Commission?

Then wouldn't I be rightfully Inazuma's right-hand man?

Kujou Takayuki was extremely anxious!

Urgent!

There was really nothing to say, Bai Ye greeted him briefly and then turned to leave.

Watching him leave like that, Asmodeus secretly released a burst of power into him.

Kujou Takayuki seemed to feel nothing and simply walked away.

Seeing that Bai Ye was looking at him, Asmodeus said in a grinning tone:

"This guy is the type who's blinded by greed and arrogant from the start. I've been fueling his ambition, letting his desires run wild. Anyway, you only have a few people around you on Inazuma's side, so it's unlikely you'll get hurt. It's better to let him expose his problems sooner and resolve them sooner."

When people are driven by desire, their IQ always declines. Asmodeus always felt pleasure watching others do all sorts of irrational things because of their desires.

Certainly...

Asmodeus glanced at Bai Ye secretly through the jade pendant.

It's quite a pleasant thing to lose your mind because of your desires.

Just as she was looking at him, a cold snort came from behind.

"Snort!"

It's the sound of Hagintos.

She was very dissatisfied.

You old fogies are almost older than me, yet you still want to fall for my good disciple.

Have you no shame?

"Teacher, what's wrong?" Bai Ye asked her teacher curiously.

"Little Bai Ye, let me tell you another principle today," Hagintos said earnestly. "The better a woman's figure, the less trustworthy she is, even Gods cannot believe her."

As for what constitutes a good figure...

Hagintos thought for a moment and decided that anyone with a better figure than himself was good enough.

Hmm, let's rule that out.

And there's Hu Tao, Klee, and Sayu...

The number of people is not small.

Asmodeus curled his lip as he looked at the jade pendant.

If you weren't Ms. Bai Ye, I would have survived if I hadn't made you so angry that you couldn't eat for three days.

"I see."

Bai Ye nodded silently.

He looked at the others Bai Ye said:

"That head of the Kujou Takayuki family..."

Just as he was about to say something, he remembered that Kujou Sara was beside him and immediately said, "I feel like we don't get along very well. Maybe it's a generation gap."

"The head of the Kujou Clan is probably four or five times older than you, so it's inevitable that communication problems will not be good."

Kamisato Ayato smiled and agreed.

At the same time, he gave his younger sister a look.

Sis, although you might be a bit of a beast, you're still a good person. Stick with Bai Ye, don't let him get tricked by Kujou Takayuki.

Uh-huh.

Looking into her brother's eyes, Kamisato Ayaka nodded earnestly.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Kujou Takayuki headed towards the Tenryou Commission.

The more he looked at the screen, the more anxious he became.

Asmodeus's powers gradually allowed his mind to be consumed by desire, and he was completely unaware of it.

Kujou Takayuki thought about Kamisato Ayato standing with Bai Ye, and he was always worried that Ayato Kamisato might try to trick the Tenryou Commission just like he did.

No,

I need to get Bai Ye on my side as soon as possible.

Realizing that his assassins had not responded, he immediately decided to contact the Fatui again.

Lately, the number and amount of things that the Fatui have been asking him for have been increasing, and Kujou Takayuki is starting to feel overwhelmed.

Similarly, his attitude towards the Fatui also became hostile.

Soon,

The Scaramouche reappeared before Kujou Takayuki.

"Head of the Kujou Clan, what brings you here again?"

The Scaramouche looked at Kujou Takayuki and said.

During this time, the Fatui had already taken almost everything they needed. If these Kujou Takayuki were to disappear, it wouldn't have a significant impact on them.

The Scaramouche just wanted to see how he ruined himself.

The Clown's End may not be spectacular, but it's sure to be hilarious.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but touch the mechanism hidden in his clothes.

From the Liyue Organization, the Liyue Fatui just delivered it to me.

I need to deliver this device to Bai Ye later.

He didn't dare disobey the orders of the Rex Lapis.

It would be a good opportunity for me to meet him and see what kind of person he really is.
