The Idea of Making Bai Ye the Lord of Watatsumi Island

"Cut!"

Bai Ye once again unleashed a slash at the Abyss cube left behind by the Heavenly Principles Maintainer.

A slight tremor came through my hand, but there was no pain like before.

This made Bai Ye feel much more comfortable.

Previously, when helping Albedo clear away the influence of the Abyss, Bai Ye didn't have any other problems, but the pain was quite severe. Now that the pain is gone, Bai Ye can unleash even more attacks against the Abyss.

At that time, Bai Ye also discovered that using this sword could unleash even more power.

These powers also allow him to deal with more of the Abyss energy.

"That's fine too. Otherwise, if I really have to deal with the Abyss every time, it will hurt me badly, and I really won't be able to withstand it. I'm supposed to be a practitioner of immortal Adeptal Arts and Art of Automata, but why does it feel like I'm practicing the Seven Injury Fist?"

Bai Ye muttered to himself.

After a few more strikes, the Abyss energy blocks around him were completely depleted.

After cutting the last piece, Bai Ye also felt dizzy.

My body is completely exhausted again.

Fortunately, Bai Ye was no longer afraid of lacking vitality in his body at this time.

Using the power of the Gods, immense life force returned to his body once more.

"Okay, problem solved."

Bai Ye clapped his hands gently as he spoke.

Inside the jade pendant, Orobas's resentment was practically glaring at the situation.

If, for example, this mass of resentment truly exists in the eyes.

Having witnessed the entire process, He turned to Osial, who was standing to the side, and asked, "He... he was able to easily resolve the Abyss. And afterwards, he was so familiar with the Heavenly Principles Maintainer. What... what is his true identity?"

Osial glanced at his new 'roommate' with some disdain. Compared to his complete form, which was unaffected by the seal, the current Orobas was merely an existence composed of resentment and a fragment of his soul that hadn't dissipated at the time.

Calling it a remnant of Gods god's soul is a stretch; it's practically a new soul.

If it weren't for this, it wouldn't have existed in Beelzebul's hands in the first place.

She felt a little disgusted, but then she thought that he was the only one she could talk to.

So Osial explained earnestly:

"His status isn't particularly noble; he's Morax's nephew and has a good relationship with Barbatos. He also has a few Gods protecting him. As for his abilities, they're not particularly strong either. He's just a mortal enemy of the Abyss, capable of perfectly absorbing the Archon Residue and wielding his own powers."

Orobas felt extremely fortunate.

Fortunately, after discovering that someone had come here and was absorbing resentment, instead of thinking about how to deal with him, I controlled myself and did not hurt him.

Otherwise...

Orobas didn't care about his own life or death.

If one were to harm the people of the Watatsumi Island, then one would be committing a grave sin.

Whoever harms Bai Ye will face Heavenly Principles retribution, and it's likely that Morax will personally carry it out.

At that time, Watatsumi Island was truly barren, devoid of any life.

"Wait..." Orobas remembered how Bai Ye had just regained his life force and quickly asked Osial, "Osial, who were the Gods whose powers Bai Ye absorbed? Was Emet among them?"

"When he had it, Bai Ye's ability to restore his life force came from him."

Osial did not understand what Orobas meant and answered casually.

"If that's the case, that would be wonderful!"

"Orobas said excitedly."

"What did you say is wonderful?"

Osial was somewhat confused by Orobas's words.

"What I want to say is that Watatsumi Island is finally saved."

Is Watatsumi Island salvageable?

Osial was a little confused.

Then he quickly said, "I remind you, you are a Gods who has been dead for thousands of years. Even on the Watatsumi Island, which respects you, how many believers are truly loyal to you? And would these people be willing to have Bai Ye as their master? As for what Bai Ye is doing, that is absolutely unrealistic."

"I will not let Bai Ye make his sacrifices in vain. I am confident that I have a way to make Bai Ye the one who truly controls Watatsumi Island. After all, only with him can the people of Watatsumi Island survive."

Orobas quickly explained to Osial:

"I also have another race of followers in the Enkanomiya, the Coral King Insect race, who came from the Sea of Darkness. After witnessing my power, they will naturally recognize Bai Ye as their master, and with Emet's life force present, they can reproduce in large numbers. These Coral King Insects are also the race that can prevent Watatsumi Island and the Enkanomiya from becoming a desert. When the two combine, the environment of Watatsumi Island will naturally change drastically."

Orobas's eastern expedition was not only orchestrated by Heavenly Principles to send him to his death, but more importantly, it was because the land of Watatsumi Island was extremely barren.

He could control the Coral King Insect race, but their numbers were still insufficient. However, Bai Ye now possessed the powers of both himself and Emet, two Gods, and thus could use the Coral King Insects to completely transform the land of Watatsumi Island.

Since Watatsumi Island's prosperity was under Bai Ye's control, is there any doubt about who Watatsumi Island serves as its master?

"So that's what you think." Osial nodded. "Aren't you afraid that one day Bai Ye will control Watatsumi Island and become a tyrant?"

"I don't believe that. I'd rather believe he finds it troublesome than believe he's a tyrant."

"That's true."

No sooner had Orobas finished speaking than a violent explosion was heard at the cave entrance.

Shenhe was the first to rush in.

Upon seeing Bai Ye, Shenhe arrived in front of him in an instant.

She then pulled him into her arms.

Shenhe looked around sharply.

She was also holding a talisman in her hand.

"What just happened? Is it Orobas's resentment that's bothering you?"

She asked Bai Ye.

Anyone who attacks Bai Ye will be killed by her.

"Waaaaah..."

The voice of Bai Ye kept ringing out.

Suffocating, so suffocating.

The key is that the root cannot be broken free.

Hu Tao was also rushing towards this side at this moment. Seeing this situation, she quickly shouted, "Hey, if you keep going like this, our Wangsheng Funeral Parlor will start taking on a new batch of orders."

Her eyes also held a mixture of jealousy and envy.

Holding Bai Ye in his arms so domineeringly, as if anyone who wants to be his enemy has to defeat him first, is truly enviable.

Unfortunately, Hu Tao knew she couldn't do it.

Her height was about the same as Bai Ye's, so it was more of a hug than an embrace.

Hearing what Hu Tao said, Shenhe loosened his grip slightly, allowing Bai Ye to breathe. However, he did not let Bai Ye leave his embrace.

A sly glint flashed in Shenhe's eyes.

It had been a long time since she had hugged Little Bai Ye, and it felt really comfortable to hold her.

"I did it to prevent anyone around from hurting him."

However, Shenhe still gave a serious explanation.

"Look around, there are no enemies here!" Hu Tao looked around, then asked Bai Ye, "What was that fluctuation just now? Who's causing trouble?"

Sangonomiya Kokomi and Kokoro also walked in at this moment.

Seeing that Bai Ye- Shenhe was embracing Yoshino, Kokomi and Gorou felt a little embarrassed.

Bai Ye left Shenhe's embrace, she said, "Well, I just ran into someone else. She didn't mean me any harm; she just gave me a sword."

As he spoke, he picked up the longsword that the Heavenly Principles Maintainer had given him.

Looking at the long sword, Hu Tao said in confusion, "What's wrong with this person? He doesn't even know you don't know swordsmanship."

"You don't know how to use a sword?" Gorou suspiciously, pointing to another longsword at Bai Ye waist, the one he always carried. "Then what's the purpose of carrying a longsword like this?"

He carried a longsword on his Bai Ye, but Hu Tao realized that she had never used it since she met him.

Her eyes also showed curiosity.

Is this long sword some kind of treasure?

In an instant Hu Tao Bai Ye imagined what terrifying creatures Ye encountered in the wild, and how he eventually defeated them and obtained the sealed sword after a fierce battle.

"Oh, this..." Hearing Gorou say that, Bai Ye reached out and gripped the long sword at his waist.

He pulled it out.

Just when everyone thought that Bai Ye was about to take out a treasure, Bai Ye took out an empty sword hilt.

There was no blade, just a bare hilt.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Hu Tao then remembered the story Zhongli had told him and quickly asked Bai Ye, "Could this be the kind of sword that can hide and not be seen?"

"I'm not Saber!" said Bai Ye, shaking the sword hilt as she spoke.

It really is just a sword hilt.

Bai Ye a 'bang', a deep mark was left on the wall.

"It's actually just a mechanism."

Bai Ye doesn't actually know how to use a longsword; he just hides a mechanism inside the hilt. As for why it's designed like a sword hilt, it's mainly for psychological warfare.

Seeing him with a sword, others would naturally be wary of his swordsmanship. But when he finally drew his sword and saw the bare hilt, he'd be momentarily stunned. And in that moment of surprise, his trap would be set off.

His sword had no particular origin.

Who told their teacher to escape in the end, leaving only a remnant soul?

What good stuff is left?

However, things are different now. The longsword in my hand was obtained from the Heavenly Principles Maintainer. Although it has no name, its value and rarity far surpass those of named swords in other games.

"This, so..."

When Gorou heard what Bai Ye said, he stammered and didn't know what to say.

I feel that this is something I shouldn't say.

"It's normal to use any method to deal with the enemy," Hu Tao immediately retorted upon hearing Gorou's words.

What's dirty about it? How could my Guest Official's methods be dirty?

Seeing how protective Hu Tao was of his own, Gorou couldn't really comment on it.

If I keep criticizing Bai Ye, I feel like I should just shoot this girl in front of me.

"Then what about the person who gave you the sword?" Gorou quickly changed the subject and asked.

"She has already left."

"Left?"

No one noticed anyone leaving.

However, seeing that Bai Ye was hiding something, he didn't press her for more information.

He must have had a reason for doing this.

At that moment, Orobas, inside the Bai Ye pendant, noticed the Sangonomiya Kokomi.

Judging from the aura of her bloodline, this girl should be the Sangonomiya's living god shrine maiden. Orobas thought to himself that if things had gone according to his original plan, the one who controlled the Sangonomiya should be this Human-God Miko.

So, all that's needed now is to reveal some information about what happened to Bai Ye to her, and that will make things easier.

He was even somewhat delighted that Watatsumi Island could become Bai Ye's subordinate.

In the future, Bai Ye's status will be much higher than that of the Seven Archons, and if Watatsumi Island is among the first to follow Bai Ye, the gains she will reap in the future will be immeasurable.

To go from being a heavily discriminated-against outer domain in Inazuma to this level all of a sudden, they've really hit the jackpot!

Orobas wondered how to tell Kokomi the situation.

At this moment, the cave trembled slightly.

"Hey, let's get out of here quickly, or we'll be trapped if this cave collapses."

Bai Ye.

Everyone nodded, then quickly left.

"See? I wasn't wrong, was I?"

Standing atop the highest peak of Ba Yashiori Island, Venti sat on a treetop, swinging her silk-clad legs as she chuckled and spoke to the shadow standing beneath the tree.

"Looks like I won this bet! Come on, Beelzebul, I'm taking all of Inazuma's drinks."

"I am certain I will not go back on my word."

Shadow didn't look at Venti, but instead focused her gaze on the Bai Ye of people who emerged from the cave.

A hint of surprise appeared on her stunningly beautiful face.

There was absolutely nothing wrong with Bai Ye, Heavenly Principles Maintainer didn't punish Bai Ye at all after coming down from Celestia?

Moreover, the long sword at his waist changed.

The aura and markings on it were clearly visible to Ying.

This is the aura of Heavenly Principles.

Heavenly Principles will return his weapon.

Kage was truly shocked.

She pursued him for a long time, but only managed to get closer to Heavenly Principles didn't respond in any way. Bai Ye, Yoru directly read things that Heavenly Principles couldn't tolerate, but instead of being punished, he received a reward from the Heavenly Principles Maintainer.

The film felt utterly absurd.

Just how much favored is Bai Ye!

Kagetoshi had a desire to emulate Bai Ye.

However, she knew very well that if she followed Bai Ye and did the same, she would probably be punished by the Heavenly Principles.

I remember Orobas's fate very clearly.

"I will personally teach him about his Art of Automata. However, after the instruction, you should leave Inazuma immediately."

Shadow spoke to Venti.

She felt that if she let Bai Ye stay Inazuma a while longer, her resolve would waver even more.

The eternity one pursues must not waver.

"Great, I've almost finished drinking sake with Inazuma." Venti jumped down from the tree, blinked, and said, "I just hope Beelzebul won't miss us when we leave."

"I don't think so."

When Ying heard Venti teasing her like that, she felt a little embarrassed.

"Mmm, I'd like to..."

Venti nodded quickly.
