At present, the problem with the Shogun had also been solved, and she had received good news about Makoto.

Ei couldn't wait to pacify Inazuma's situation and join Shushan quickly.

She looked at Lumine with eager eyes, and the latter nodded with a smile.

"Since your matter is solved, let's go. Everyone is still waiting for you."

"Speaking of which, you should apologize to the people of Inazuma properly; you have put them through a lot."

Ei was a bit embarrassed and said in a low voice:

"I know, this is my problem, I will not escape."

After saying that, Ei looked at the Shogun. The two of them were already in tacit understanding, and after looking at each other, they understood what the other was thinking in their hearts.

Ei said solemnly:

"I will use a new path to bring true Eternity to Inazuma."

"I will be watching."

The Shogun nodded slightly and took the initiative to open the passage to the consciousness space for Ei and the others.

She couldn't leave this place, but after Ei went out, her will could return to the body.

From then on, the two would share one body.

In cultivation terms, it was called one body, two souls.

Bringing Lumine and Paimon, Ei took a step out. Before her eyes, things were bizarre and the world was inverted. The next moment, she returned to Inazuma.

The Shogun's will also returned to the body, and she could sense it.

But at this time, there was no longer the stiffness in controlling the body as before.

Ei raised her head, her gaze fixed on the sky, and the movement of the ley lines was instantly grasped by her.

After observing for a moment, Ei's face sank.

Inazuma's situation, although she had tried her best to imagine it, she had still thought of it too simply.

In the area near the Dark Sea, under the influence of the spiritual energy recovery, many living beings and monsters had already begun to evolve.

That was no longer something the original army could solve.

On the other side, near Ritou, which was close to Liyue, the garrison had already tripled, and nearly 50,000 people were stationed along the coastline alone.

Ei could sense that during this period, tens of thousands of people should have died there.

Clenching her fists tightly, Ei felt her heart bleeding.

At present, it was a critical moment of life and death.

"Go to the Kamisato Estate!"

Lumine reminded her, and Ei didn't hesitate, decisively taking Lumine and Paimon to fly toward the Kamisato Estate.

356. Slaughter! A quick sword to cut through the mess! Only to go to Shushan!

At the Kamisato Estate.

Kamisato Ayato had already returned home covered in blood, and Ayaka and Yoimiya had also completed their tasks.

Kokomi and Gorou were also temporarily arranged here by Kujou Sara. The resistance army was about to riot, and if they stayed outside, they would be in danger.

As for Kujou Sara, she had also temporarily returned.

Except for Lumine and Paimon, everyone else had returned.

It was just that the banquet hall was silent at this time, and everyone was waiting for Lumine's news.

Suddenly, a flash of thunder appeared in the field.

Ei returned with Lumine and Paimon.

Everyone hurriedly stood up.

"Her Excellency, the Shogun!"

Kujou Sara shouted nervously. Ei glanced at her and remained silent.

This instantly made everyone hold their breath.

"Solved."

Lumine said exhaustedly, and returned to her seat with Paimon, who was still sleeping.

She took out a pile of spirit stones and arranged them in a pattern around her. The boiling spiritual energy enveloped Lumine and Paimon.

Lumine also began to close her eyes and regulate her breath.

The consumption just now was too great; she needed to recover her strength immediately.

Although setting up arrays was the specialty of Morning Sun Peak, it didn't mean others couldn't set up arrays.

Things like spirit-gathering arrays were a required course for all Shushan disciples.

Returning to Teyvat, they would always be used.

Everyone looked at Lumine with some surprise, and then looked at Ei with eager eyes.

Although the latter kept a straight face and didn't say a word, there was indeed some warmth in her eyes.

It seemed that Ei had truly returned.

Instantly, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. No matter what, their plan had been realized.

"Kamisato Ayato, report the situation."

Ei spoke decisively, not intending to say anything to everyone at all.

Inazuma's time at present did not allow for waste.

Only Kujou Sara's eyes were a bit dim.

Ei didn't call her first, so she knew that she might not be okay.

But she didn't care. As long as Inazuma could get better, the rest didn't matter.

Kamisato Ayato also sighed, and after organizing his emotions, he slowly told Ei all the matters in Inazuma during this period.

Although Ei knew the situation wouldn't be good, she still couldn't help but feel anger rolling when she heard that the people of Inazuma were living in misery.

She was angry at her own cowardice that led to Inazuma becoming like this, and also angry at those parasites of Inazuma.

After Kamisato Ayato finished speaking, the sky was already densely covered by thunder.

"Damned things!"

Ei finally couldn't hold back and slapped the table in front of her to pieces. Instantly, everyone in the hall lowered their heads.

"Inazuma is in danger, and there are still so many stubborn bastards who dare to exploit the people!"

"I am at fault, and they are also at fault!"

Kamisato Ayato pursed his lips and said in a low voice:

"Her Excellency, the Shogun, please calm your anger. Now is not the time to be angry. What should we do?"

Ei finally looked at Kujou Sara and said coldly:

"Kujou Sara, in order to resist the spiritual energy recovery, what are the casualties of the army?"

Kujou Sara's eyes dimmed, and after a moment of silence, she said in a low voice:

"Heavy casualties. Over a thousand civilians in Ritou died, 13,800 soldiers died, and 4,312 people were seriously injured and unable to fight again."

"Countless minor injuries."

"Narukami Island, Kannazuka, Yashiori Island, and Watatsumi Island are in the middle, but the casualties are also... civilians are temporarily safe, but the army has lost over 10,000 people."

"Tsurumi Island and Seirai Island have completely collapsed. The army has all retreated, and we have lost control of Tsurumi Island and Seirai Island."

As soon as she finished speaking, Ei's gaze was like a knife, fiercely looking at Kujou Sara.

"Is that how you serve as the Shogunate General!"

Kujou Sara knelt on one knee, gritting her teeth and remaining silent.

"Kujou Sara, has the Tenryou Commission become the private army of your Kujou clan?"

"Exploiting the people, raising taxes without authorization, deceiving those above and below, Inazuma is in misery!"

"Do you deserve to die! Answer me!"

Ayaka saw that the situation was not good and hurriedly said:

"Her Excellency, the Shogun, the actions of the Kujou clan have nothing to do with General Kujou. She is only wholeheartedly for Inazuma."

"She also didn't know that the Kujou clan could do such vicious things."

"Her Excellency, the Shogun, Kujou Sara is innocent!"

Ei took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing her anger, and said in a deep voice:

"The Sakoku Decree, the Vision Hunt Decree, it was my fault. I was too cowardly at the time. I admit this, and I have failed the people of Inazuma." ===== CHAPTER 597 =====
