Chapter 206: Mikoshi Chiyo appears! The Inazuma small group gathers again!
After a brief warning, tranquility returned to Tenshukaku.
Raiden Ei fell into memories, and those scenes that should have sunk into the depths of her memory surfaced again.
Like a scene from yesterday, vivid in her mind.
And Kitsune Saiguu's expression kept changing; could the fate and intuition she foresaw be related to Luo Li?
If it were someone else, the Lord of Hakushin could easily glimpse their fate, and even the future.
But if it were Luo Li, she couldn't penetrate even a little bit, as if looking at flowers in the fog.
As for Yae Miko, she was a bit suspicious, her long fox eyes sweeping back and forth between her two friends and elders.
She always felt that the two were hiding something from her.
However, she couldn't go up and peek, because both of them intentionally covered their positions.
Curling her lips, Miko gave up exploring, feeling quite bored.
Until not long after, rapid and fierce footsteps came from outside Tenshukaku.
"This sound is..."
Miko's heart moved, and she turned to look.
Immediately, a cold and beautiful woman with a face like the moon stepped in from outside the pavilion.
Her appearance was such that even Miko herself felt inferior; the beauty of the Oni race was well-deserved.
Avoiding the world for hundreds of years, she finally walked out of the Mikoshi Clan today.
"Mikoshi Chiyo."
Miko quietly sized her up, having a shallow impression of this war-ghost beauty with whom she had little interaction.
The other party didn't even glance at her for a second, walking straight to Raiden Ei.
Seeing Kitsune Saiguu, Chiyo was a bit surprised: "You actually came back."
Although she avoided the world, she also had some understanding of the outside rumors and understood why this heartbroken Hakushin mother left Narukami Island.
But now she had returned; could it be that something had happened?
Considering that Raiden Ei also notified her, Chiyo's expression was a bit heavy.
In her mind, perhaps Inazuma had encountered another difficult problem.
But this thought didn't last for a few seconds before it was broken by the gaze swept onto the desk.
"Where did that thing come from?"
Almost losing her voice, Yae Miko watched as the cold beauty from just now broke down in an instant, her face pale with shock.
That urgency and shock were almost exactly the same as Raiden Ei's at the beginning.
After the initial emotional impact, Ei had calmed down a lot and told the whole story of how she got the jade pendant.
Listening in silence, until she heard that the jade pendant was obtained from a girl, Mikoshi Chiyo's breathing gradually became rapid.
"Where is she?"
"Escaped."
Facing Raiden Ei's calm expression, Chiyo was stunned for a moment.
Soon, she returned to normal and said with an extremely determined tone: "I want to find that girl!"
"However, I have already issued an order: whoever finds that girl will be promoted to the Tri-Commission unconditionally; she cannot stay in Narukami Island, and the only place she can go is the resistance."
Raiden Ei's logic was very clear; she had thought of everything as soon as the other party escaped.
If she could, she would want to go and catch her herself, but the words and deeds of the Raiden Shogun were too important, and her going herself was a bit much.
It was better to let someone she trusted go and catch her, such as Mikoshi Chiyo.
Although Kujou Sara had been fighting the resistance at Tatarasuna recently, she clearly couldn't spare much attention to the whereabouts of a girl.
Therefore, Mikoshi Chiyo, who had been silent for hundreds of years and was most suitable to go, was included in her considerations.
Once Luo Li's whereabouts were mentioned, Chiyo wouldn't need to be urged and would show more than 300% enthusiasm and attitude.
She was thinking this, and Chiyo really spoke.
"Let me go and catch her back!"
"Is there any problem?"
"If I can't catch her, I won't come back!"
The ruthlessness in these words made Yae Miko look sideways; once upon a time, Chiyo's prestige could make enemies tremble with fear.
Don't look at her as a beauty with a face that was unparalleled in the world; her madness and bloodthirst when fighting were very terrifying.
Raiden Ei's eyes brightened: "Good, then everything is left to you."
The small group that had scattered was now gathered again.
The reason for this was all for the same man.
…………
Below the waterfall outside Inazuma City!
In the endless wilderness, three heads—two big and one small—emerged from the lake.
"Phew, finally escaped!"
Thoma breathed a sigh of relief and brought the exhausted Traveler and the anxious Paimon ashore from the lake.
"Traveler, are you okay?"
Paimon leaned over to her side, busy looking her up and down.
"I'm fine, I don't know why the blade light suddenly weakened at the end."
The Traveler said she was doing great, just a bit tired from overexertion: "But the jade pendant Mr. Luo Li gave me was lost."
"Ah?!" Paimon was shocked: "Then what should we do when we see him next time?"
Thoma laughed and said: "Anyway, everyone being safe and sound is the greatest joy; having passed this hurdle, I think no difficulty can stump the two of you."
Indeed, according to common sense, being able to escape from the Raiden Shogun was enough to be proud of.
But considering Luo Li's combat power, the Traveler and Paimon always felt it wasn't very reliable.
Maybe the Raiden Shogun couldn't even beat him.
Thinking of this, they became uneasy again.
"What should we do next?" Paimon was in the dark.
They had seen the Raiden Shogun, and the Traveler had confirmed that she was not the god who had separated the siblings.
It was just that after being wanted, I'm afraid the two couldn't travel freely within Inazuma.
The Traveler stared at her: "Then what about the Vision Hunt Decree that we promised Young Lady Kamisato?"
"But we can't even protect ourselves."
The little one played with her fingers guiltily; it wasn't that she wanted to run away, but the situation was forcing them.
The Traveler thought for a while and finally decided: "We will go to Mr. Luo Li and ask for help, let him explain why the Raiden Shogun is so similar to sister Makoto; I believe he shouldn't hide it from us this time."
"That's right, there's also Mr. Luo Li, but can we find him? Where should we hide in the meantime?"
One question after another was rattled off by Paimon.
"Hahaha, this is where you need to use me, the connection expert."
Thoma said boldly: "You can't stay on Narukami Island anymore, so go to the resistance's territory; as for finding Mr. Luo Li, please leave it to me; I will contact the Young Lady through secret means to help you search."
"That's great!" Paimon was overjoyed and couldn't help but clap.
"Since that's the case, let's escape Narukami Island before the Shogunate troops have time to blockade the border!"
The Traveler was very reliable at critical moments and immediately made a decision.
