Chapter 225

~8 min read 1,508 words

After all, ships and the like still require time. Even though the ship specifically prepared by Lei Dianying was very fast—much faster than the *Alcor* of the Crux Fleet—it was still not as fast as Seeing Mu Yang reaching his destination directly through his space-traveling ability, was it?

However, Seeing Mu Yang ultimately agreed to Lei Dianying's request.

In Lei Dianying's mind, although the entire Teyvat continent was under the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Principles, an alliance could be considered to have been reached between Inazuma, Mondstadt, and Liyue in this way.

But there must still be a distinction between those close and those distant, right?

She herself belonged entirely to Seeing Mu Yang, and Inazuma was also Seeing Mu Yang's.

Meanwhile, Liyue belonged to Morax and Mondstadt belonged to Barbatos, even though both gods had now pledged their allegiance to Seeing Mu Yang.

But compared to Liyue and Mondstadt, Inazuma was Seeing Mu Yang's direct-line nation, wasn't it?

There was definitely a distinction in closeness!

It was just like the rumors about the "Prince Consort" that had spread throughout Inazuma.

Although Seeing Mu Yang's status was certainly not that of a mere Prince Consort—that would somewhat belittle his status; he was the Heavenly Principles, and it was they who were climbing high to reach him.

Yet, Lei Dianying did not deny this matter; it could be considered a disguised declaration of sovereignty.

At the very least, Lei Dianying harbored some small secret thoughts in her heart. Regarding this, Seeing Mu Yang did not mind; staying on the ship for an extra day or two was not a problem.

The two of them had ended up together in a muddled fashion, but for a woman like Lei Dianying, it was impossible for her to betray Seeing Mu Yang now.

She was indeed a good woman, just a bit clumsy.

Also leaving with Seeing Mu Yang this time was Kamisato Ayaka. Unlike Seeing Mu Yang, Kamisato Ayaka was going as the Inazuman Ambassador to Liyue. At the same time, she had been assigned other tasks by Lei Dianying, such as taking care of all of Seeing Mu Yang's daily needs, and even his needs in certain other aspects.

Lei Dianying did not mind Seeing Mu Yang finding other women; she even felt that it would be impossible for Seeing Mu Yang not to find women.

There seemed to be women in the chat group who were in ambiguous relationships with Seeing Mu Yang.

Those Inazuman nobles played very wildly.

Moreover, according to Yae Miko's teachings, she needed to show a bit of magnanimity at this time and absolutely must not try to control Seeing Mu Yang, as that would only trigger Seeing Mu Yang's rebellious psychology. At the same time, she could arrange for some excellent women to be with Seeing Mu Yang, so there would be no need to worry about Seeing Mu Yang seeking out disreputable women.

Lei Dianying highly approved of these viewpoints.

Therefore, Lei Dianying naturally thought of Kamisato Ayaka, letting her take care of Seeing Mu Yang's life by his side.

If she were to serve Seeing Mu Yang when he had needs, in Lei Dianying's view, this was absolutely a case of climbing high.

Seeing Mu Yang was, after all, the Heavenly Principles, while Kamisato Ayaka was merely a human.

For Kamisato Ayaka, this was a rare opportunity, and it could also be considered a reward from Lei Dianying to her.

It was just that when Kamisato Ayaka faced Seeing Mu Yang, she was completely bewildered.

For a moment, she did not know how to face this Prince Consort, Seeing Mu Yang.

But if you were to say that Kamisato Ayaka would feel dissatisfied because of this, that was not the case. If she really did serve Seeing Mu Yang, she could be considered a chambermaid to the Raiden Shogun, right?

For the Shogun, only those who had gained her approval and were her own people would receive such an arrangement.

If she were not outstanding enough to gain the Raiden Shogun's approval, the Shogun would not arrange this for her.

Although Kamisato Ayaka was still full of longing for romance and the like, she did not need to be like other noble women whose fates were doomed the moment they were born, needing to become tools for political marriage.

Kamisato Ayaka had a good brother who doted on her, and likewise, the Kamisato Clan did not need to worry about marriage alliances.

She had also fantasized about what her own love would be like.

But now that her fate had been decided in an instant, Kamisato Ayaka felt a bit at a loss, yet she did not have much resistance to the idea.

This was the grace of the Shogun!

If you don't believe it, ask other Inazuman women; if they were placed in her position, how would they choose!

Of course, it was impossible for Seeing Mu Yang to directly demand that Kamisato Ayaka do this or that because of this; he, Seeing Mu Yang, had always had integrity!

He dared to swear on Kamisato Ayaka's conscience.

On the Jade Chamber, Ningguang looked at the somewhat distracted Keqing and said playfully, "What's wrong? Regretting it now?"

"Regret what? What are you talking about?" Keqing snapped back to reality and asked evasively.

"About Seeing Mu Yang. Beidou said earlier that he has become the Raiden Shogun's Prince Consort," Ningguang said pointedly. "After such a long time, you should also understand that although he is a person from another world, his status is special.

Even the Geo Archon treats him with great respect, and the gods are very obedient to him.

We can almost be certain that the chat group was created by him, and the abilities we possess were also granted by him.

His strength is very likely to have reached the level of a god. Now that he has become the Raiden Shogun's partner, don't you have any other thoughts?"

"But he is already the Raiden Shogun's partner. Don't tell me you want me to go and fight the Raiden Shogun for a man!" Keqing looked at Ningguang, speechless.

She felt very aggrieved. Clearly, she was the one who came first, and Seeing Mu Yang had even seen her—more than once, at that. Their relationship before had been quite good, and there was even a feeling of being in love.

How did Seeing Mu Yang become the Raiden Shogun's Prince Consort just by going to Inazuma once?

What is she supposed to do now?

Thinking of her parents, Keqing felt another headache coming on.

Ever since the rumors about her and Seeing Mu Yang appeared, her parents had been egging her on in all sorts of ways, seemingly worried that Seeing Mu Yang might run off.

They even found teachers specifically to teach her how to serve a man. Keqing expressed that she was completely shocked at the time.

This was definitely because they were worried she wouldn't be able to find a man in the future and wanted her to get married quickly, right?

And Keqing had indeed been studying seriously at the time. She felt that the relationship between her and Seeing Mu Yang had actually been progressing steadily, and she still wanted the other party to take responsibility. Perhaps she would use it one day?

But what is going on now?

Now, Keqing really wanted to grab Seeing Mu Yang's clothes and loudly question him: "Seeing Mu Yang, how exactly are you going to repay what you owe me here?"

"Actually, it's not impossible. I still support you in doing so. I believe the Geo Archon would also approve." Just to Keqing's surprise, Ningguang nodded in deep agreement.

"Have you lost your mind?" Keqing looked at Ningguang with suspicion. "That is the Raiden Shogun, and besides, I am not the type of person to destroy someone else's relationship."

"But as a powerhouse, isn't it a very normal thing to have multiple spouses?

Like the family you are in, you should have seen more of it," Ningguang said with deep meaning.

This person, she finally stopped being pretentious; at least she didn't deny her feelings for Seeing Mu Yang.

"Uh." Keqing was instantly speechless. What Ningguang said made a lot of sense; she was actually left without a retort.

"Fine, I admit, a person like Seeing Mu Yang is indeed worthy of being liked by multiple girls, but that is the Raiden Shogun, the Raiden Shogun!!

Although I now have the possibility of reaching the level of an adeptus, that is the Raiden Shogun!!" This was the most depressing thing for Keqing.

She had originally thought that she could cultivate to the level of an adeptus, and the barrier between them would disappear. When Seeing Mu Yang returned, as long as he was willing to confess, she would be willing to accept.

As a result, before she could be happy for long, the bad news arrived.

(Seeking flowers, seeking monthly tickets, seeking automatic subscriptions, mwah, love you all!).
