Chapter 249: The decision of Makoto, Ei, and Kitsune Saiguu

Tenshukaku!

On the bamboo mat paved with mahogany at the top of the pavilion, Kitsune Saiguu was drinking alone while looking into the distance.

The clear sake went down her throat, and her heart ached.

Five hundred years ago, ever since she moved from the Grand Narukami Shrine to the Tenshukaku, her familiarity with this place was almost no less than that of the Raiden twin sisters.

"Everything is like a phantom dream; the scenery of the floating world is only for a moment."

This was what Raiden Makoto liked to say the most in the past, and it was not a derogatory, decadent remark.

To Makoto, it was the words she felt best fit the present.

Looking at the floating clouds, Kitsune Saiguu, who was half-leaning against the wooden pillar, had a disheveled figure and was unrestrained, her eyes becoming misty without her knowing.

Until, at some unknown time, two almost identical figures suddenly appeared in her field of vision.

"Ei? You're back?"

At first, she thought she was drunk and saw Raiden Ei as two people.

But then the two completely different actions made Kitsune Saiguu come back to her senses instantly.

"Yes, I'm back."

Raiden Ei responded softly and sat down cross-legged beside her.

But the other one came straight to her and smiled: "Long time no see, Saiguu."

Even though she knew from the traces of Luo Li's jade pendant that this man and woman hadn't perished in the Abyss, when reality was truly placed before her, Kitsune Saiguu still couldn't stop herself from being stunned.

"Are you... Makoto?"

In private, their relationship had always been without distinction of status, and they addressed each other by name.

Her gaze gradually gathered, her scattered pupils became focused again, and Kitsune Saiguu met the eyes of the woman with a gentle smile in front of her, unable to speak for a long time.

"How is it? Coming back suddenly, were you surprised?"

Raiden Makoto slowly knelt in front of her, the smile on her face exactly the same as it was five hundred years ago.

Kitsune Saiguu looked at Raiden Ei, whose expression was much more relaxed than before, and then looked at Raiden Makoto, who had no tear mole at the corner of her eye, and suddenly realized.

"Makoto! Is it really you? This isn't a phantom dream?!"

"Otherwise, could it be fake?"

Holding the hand that Saiguu had subconsciously reached out, Raiden Makoto said with a smile: "It seems you are indeed very surprised, to the point where you can't even tell reality from a dream."

Raiden Ei was speechless at her sister's mood to tease at this time.

However, Makoto had always been like this, able to make people feel reliable at critical moments, and also able to make people smile bitterly.

She could be called Kitsune Saiguu's only nemesis.

One hour later.

Compared to Raiden Ei's ability to accept and calm her mind, Kitsune Saiguu was much stronger and accepted everything quickly.

Worthy of being the Matriarch of Hakushin.

Over five hundred years, from the war of the destruction of Khaenri'ah to being trapped in the Abyss, then escaping the Abyss, living in seclusion in Mondstadt, going to Liyue, and finally the sisters recognizing each other.

The whole series of events was told.

So much so that when the sisters discussed "revenge" on Luo Li, Raiden Makoto told it to Kitsune Saiguu as an interesting joke.

Upon hearing the topic of revenge, the Matriarch of Hakushin immediately became interested.

She was tireless in pranking that guy and had tried it several times in the past, but unfortunately, it was all in vain.

She didn't know if she could take advantage of this situation to gain some benefit.

"So, what do you plan to do? Are you going to find him now? Or wait a while?"

Kitsune Saiguu's doubt was also the problem Raiden Ei was struggling with now. She really wanted to go and hack Luo Li, that heartless man who only knew how to flirt and didn't care about the aftermath, to death right now.

But she was persuaded by her sister to slow down for a while.

Raiden Makoto successfully turned into a person who enjoyed pleasure: "Anyway, we already know Luo Li's whereabouts. Why not see what he does next and what tricks he can play?"

Kitsune Saiguu was instantly moved. The three of them would just watch him act, and by the way, act as a straight man, and when it was finally time to say that we knew your plan long ago, they would directly take revenge for both "new and old grudges."

Raiden Ei herself was hesitant, but because her sister and Kitsune Saiguu both agreed to this proposal, she had to suppress her inner irritability again.

However, the current calm was just the prelude to the coming storm.

After the discussion was settled, Raiden Makoto suddenly asked: "By the way, where did little Yae go?"

She was quite concerned about that little fox who used to warm her hands and feet; after all, she had raised her for so long, and their relationship wasn't distant.

"Miko, isn't she at the Grand Narukami Shrine?" Raiden Ei sensed it, but she didn't find Miko's aura on Narukami Island at all.

Kitsune Saiguu's eyes flashed, and with the help of the connection between their bloodlines, she looked into the distance, the corners of her mouth hooking into a faint arc.

·· ·Ask for flowers· ···

"So that's how it is. This is truly interesting."

…………

Watatsumi Island!

"So, Dianxia wants me to act as a spy and go back to find out information and tell you?"

Under Luo Li's repeated corrections, the sarcastic Yae Miko finally returned to a normal tone and no longer called him "Father" in the posture of a fox spirit trying to seduce him.

Although calling him that made a sense of excitement inexplicably surge in her heart, she couldn't show it on the surface.

"Cough cough, to be precise, it should be mutually beneficial. For example, the dark history from before, I can help you erase it."

Looking at the mirror in Luo Li's hand, Yae Miko smiled and said: "It doesn't matter to me if Dianxia keeps it for your own appreciation."

... .... 0

As long as it wasn't someone else, he could look at it however he wanted; anyway, she had lost face in front of him many times when she was young.

If you have many lice, you don't itch; if you have many debts, you don't worry.

Just as her embarrassing scenes appeared too many times in front of the same person, the dark history was no longer dark history.

Luo Li: "..."

Good guy, this is truly "having no desires makes one strong."

As long as she wasn't afraid of losing face, Miko had no weaknesses.

"However, if Dianxia hopes I can help, it's not impossible."

Yae Miko gently shook her bare feet, and a rare look of excitement appeared in her eyes.
