Not far from Qiu Nian, there was a young woman in a pink kimono and a young man in a yukata with a bitter expression.
The woman supported the young man, her face full of heartache.
"Mu Zi..."
"Why did you insist on issuing such an order, General?"
The young man stared at the Thousand-Handed, Hundred-Eyed Statue and asked the woman beside him, full of confusion.
"yes..."
"If it were just a lockdown order, that would be one thing, but a year ago, an eye-hunting order came along..."
"Will doing this really make Inazuma a better person...?"
"But what exactly is eternity?"
Mu Zi nodded slightly upon hearing this.
"I don't know what's wrong with me..."
"Since losing my God's Eye a year ago, it seems I've lost all hope for anything..."
The young man stood up, looked at Mu Zi in front of him, and his eyes were filled with deep apology.
"I don't have the eyes of God, but I can feel your pain."
"Everything will be alright, I will always be with you."
Upon hearing this, Mu Zi shook her head, then gave the young man a sweet smile.
"You should take a good rest during this time."
"Let me handle things at the shop..."
The young man was deeply moved by these words, and tears welled up in his eyes. After wiping his eyes, he spoke to Mu Zi in front of him.
At that moment, Qiu Nian seemed to sense something and looked at the Thousand-Handed, Hundred-Eyed Statue.
Among the countless eyes of the gods, one eye of the water god began to glow faintly.
It stands out conspicuously in the darkness.
"Strong emotions...?"
Seeing this, Qiu Nian murmured with some emotion.
Not far away, the shogunate army guarding the statue seemed to have also noticed something unusual.
Did you see that just now?
"One of the Eyes of God seemed to light up for a moment."
A member of the Shogunate army looked at the spot where the Eye of God had just lit up and asked the people next to him with some surprise.
"What's all the fuss about?"
"You're obviously new here. I've seen you countless times in the past month."
Upon hearing this, a senior-looking member of the Shogunate army shook his head and said...
"Is this so..."
Upon hearing this, the shogunate soldier scratched his head in confusion.
Just then, a beautiful and charming woman came to Qiu Nian's side.
She had long, flowing pink hair tied in a ponytail, and wore earrings inlaid with blue gemstones on her fox ears.
She wore a shrine maiden outfit with red and white as the main colors, and wore a lightning elemental eye.
Her legs were bare, and she wore a pair of wooden clogs.
Just by looking at them, you can tell they are not ordinary people.
"This cold idol."
"Can such fervent desires truly be restrained?"
After the woman stopped, she stood beside Qiu Nian and spoke in the direction of the Thousand-Handed and Hundred-Eyed Statue.
"Even though those divine eyes, one after another, are eternally imprisoned."
"Yet the eye of God still shines faintly within the confinement."
"Eternity is long-lasting, but it is also fragile."
"Not to mention that nothing in this world is eternal."
Upon hearing this, Qiu Nian also shared her own opinion.
The woman was surprised that the person next to her could say such a thing.
She was very interested in the traveler from afar, so she sent someone to investigate.
The investigation revealed that the traveler was accompanied by a handsome young man.
After all, this was the first time she had ever seen a survey result that drew such extraordinary conclusions based solely on appearance.
That's why she decided to meet this person in person.
When I saw it, I realized it wasn't exaggerated at all.
Just from the young man's demeanor and appearance, one gets the feeling that he is not simple.
Now this young man has shared his understanding of eternity, which makes her feel that he is even more extraordinary.
"I am the high priestess of Narukami Taisha, Yae no Miko."
"May I ask your name, sir?"
Yae no Miko turned around and introduced herself to Aki Natsumi.
"My apologies, it is Lord Yae no Kami."
"My name is Qiu Nian. I come from Liyue and am a guest of the Hall of Rebirth."
Seeing this, Qiu Nian politely introduced himself.
Just then, Yae no Miko seemed to sense something, his expression froze, and he looked utterly incredulous.
But she immediately returned to normal, even though she had hidden it very well.
But her rapid heartbeat and the deep fear in her beautiful eyes betrayed her.
"Hehehe~"
"Mr. Qiu Nian, you don't need to be so polite to me. I might need your help in the future."
Yae no Miko looked at Akihime in front of her and said with a smile.
"Um..."
"Miss Miko, there's no need for that. If you have anything to say, please speak freely."
Seeing this, Qiu Nian sighed helplessly and then spoke.
Although I don't know what happened, judging from the other person's behavior just now, I guess my identity has been discovered.
But how exactly was it discovered?
"In that case, please come with me, Mr. Qiu Nian."
After saying that, Yae no Miko led Akiyasu toward the outskirts of Inazuma Castle.
Chapter 160 Qiu Nian Wants to Trick the Divine Child
After a long time, the two left Inazuma Castle and arrived at the White Fox.
On the grass at night, several foxes were running, and many fireflies were twinkling in the grass.
Yae no Miko stopped here and turned to look at Aki Natsumi in front of her.
Even now, she still wonders if something went wrong.
How could this handsome young man, who appears so gentle and kind, be from three thousand five hundred years ago...?
"Miss Divine Child".
"After all this time, what is it you wish to say to me?"
Qiu Nian looked at the Eightfold Divine Child before him and asked.
"call..."
"Should I address you as 'Your Excellency' or 'Mr. Qiu Nian'?"
Upon hearing this, Yae no Miko took a deep breath, then looked at Qiu Nian in front of her and asked.
Qiu Nian was taken aback upon hearing this.
Doesn't a shikigami refer to a spirit that Inazuma commands under the orders of an Onmyoji?
"It's the 'killing' in 'murder'."
Upon hearing this, Yae no Miko reminded him again.
Qiu Nian was taken aback again upon hearing this.
But then he realized what was happening and gave a wry smile.
"If you mean the person who destroyed many demons in Inazuma 3,500 years ago."
"That was indeed me."
Qiu Nian looked at the Yae no Miko in front of her and explained with a somewhat complicated expression.
In Mondstadt, he was known as...
In Liyue, he is known as...
In Inazuma, he was known as...
From this perspective, it seems that only the title in Liyue is quite good.
"It's really you!"
