Chapter 142

"Yes," Wu Lang said. "We have been fighting the shogunate forces for a long time."

"It is said that frontline warriors, angered by the Eye-Suppression Edict and the shogunate's rule under the Three Governors, have been galvanized by fury."

"Only then can they fight bravely."

"My point is, now that the shogunate forces are exhausted, we should muster all our strength to crush Kujou Sara outright."

"Don't give her a chance to catch her breath."

"Then press forward straight to the Tenshukaku."

Indeed, on the battlefield, opportunities vanish in an instant.

If we do not seize this moment of high morale to crush the weary Kujou Sara,

once she recovers, the rebels' situation will be grim.

"Understood, Wu Lang. Go prepare."

Xin Hai smiled faintly.

"This battle, we must win."

He left the office.

Wu Lang had just stepped out of the command post.

A squad leader hurried up and said, "Original, the experimental subjects have developed new symptoms."

"Besides aging, their entire bodies are showing signs of organ failure."

Wu Lang waved his hand.

He said calmly, "These are the last batch of subjects. Once their results are in, our experiment ends."

Sanhu Gong Xin Hai: "What? Is this Wu Lang...?"

Zhong Li: "Is he the original Su Bai?"

Hu Tao: "Huh? Is he the original Su Bai from 3.3?"

Yae Miko: "Oh, did little Wu Lang also fall to Su Bai's hand?"

Wu Lang: "Did Su Bai Mr. kill me too?"

Tevinter: "It seems so. He killed you and replaced you, then paralyzed your leader."

Windrider: "Old Su, you've gone completely mad."

Lei Dianying: "No good, I can't sit still anymore. Su Bai Mr., draw your blade."

Su Bai: "(Covering his face)"

Kujou Sara: "Did Su Bai Mr.'s past life aim to destroy our Watatsumi?"

Hisakuni Shinobu: "It's not just the rebels—Mr. Su Bai has been spreading the Evil Eye everywhere; the shogunate forces must have suffered severe damage too."

Yoimiya: "Why does Su Bai Mr. care for others everywhere in Fontaine, yet come to Watatsumi as a Great Sage to destroy us? It's so unfair!"

Nahida: "Wahhh, my Great Sage—why is this happening?"

Nilou: "Who exactly is that Great Tree King? What could make you go to such lengths?"

Furina: "Can you all calm down? Nothing is settled yet. Can't you give him some trust and time to prove himself?"

Navia: "I agree with Young Lady Furina."

Clorinde: "Me too."

Yae Miko: "Oh, you three cuties, he didn't kill any of your Fontaine people, so of course you're defending him."

Furina: "Who's your cute little thing? I—I'm over five hundred years old. So tell me, if you're proven wrong in the end, will you apologize to Su Bai for misunderstanding him?"

Yae Miko: "Of course! Then I'll rub my tail against him."

Furina: "No, you'll use your mouth. What use is your tail?"

Yae Miko: "Pfft, I won't tell you."

Furina: "Hmph! Stingy fox."

ps: Happy New Year everyone!!!!!!

Chapter 87: Don't think I'm unserious—I'm the one who'll make you pay when I'm serious.

Watatsumi Shrine.

Yae Miko put down her chopsticks.

The fried tofu on the table no longer smelled appetizing.

What kind of mess is this?

Su Bai, as Great Sage of Sumeru, came to Watatsumi and went on a killing spree.

This fox lady is truly heartbroken.

"Hmm?"

Unintentionally, Miko looked up and saw a slender figure slowly approaching her.

"Kami?"

Yae Miko hesitated.

The next moment, surprise flickered across her lovely face.

"Kami, why are you here?"

Lei Dianying gazed far into the distance, troubled.

Yae Miko understood and let out a soft chuckle.

"Watatsumi is perfectly fine."

"Don't let your past memories cloud your present."

"No," Lei Dianying said calmly. "I just feel very strange."

"Strange?"

Yae Miko frowned in suspicion.

She couldn't fathom what her scatterbrained friend was thinking now.

Could it be that Furcaros's resurrection had unsettled Shin's mind?

Yae Miko understood Shin's thoughts just as well.

Not just Shin—even she herself had grown far more agitated after discovering Furcaros had truly returned.

She longed for Su Bai to reincarnate and form even a slight connection with his former companions.

"Shin, I understand what you mean, but things must proceed step by step."

"If your mind grows chaotic now, it might..."

Yae Miko was equally puzzled about how Lei Dianying had returned into the General's body.

The doll's programmed core held only eternity.

Fortunately, the doll had not erupted given Shin's current state of mind.

"No, I've noticed that since the Reincarnation System arrived, I can no longer sense any wear."

"And after I regained control of the General's body, I discovered..."

Lei Dianying's face flickered with embarrassment as she said slowly: "It feels as if I've returned to the state I was in before creating the General."

"The me now is the me of before. The General no longer exists. It's strange—like something changed imperceptibly."

Upon hearing this, Yae Miko's eyes darkened.

"So as the livestream suggested, did the arrival of this system instantly bring subtle changes to Teyvat?"

Subtle meant no obvious change was visible on the surface.

But that was merely a limit of the naked eye.

Hmph!

Yae Miko's heart rippled with thought.

This was almost certainly tied to Su Bai.

She even suspected that, with Su Bai's current abilities, he possessed the power to bring the dead back to life.

Such matters could only be asked privately of the person involved.

But in the Divine Priestess's eyes, he was certainly not someone who acted casually.

He would never display anything without reason.

Yae Miko had been frantically probing the livestream, trying to establish a connection with him—but Su Bai rarely replied.

This reincarnator, like Lumine, came from another world.
