Chapter 66

"..."

It couldn't be that good-for-nothing fox, Yae Miko, could it?

I wonder why she left her shrine and came all the way to Liyue?

Su Han nodded and said, "Understood. I'll go take a look."

The other party had specifically asked to see him.

He naturally couldn't avoid meeting them.

Besides, the visitor had arrived in an official capacity as an emissary.

Inside the Qixing Pavilion's banquet hall.

Yae Miko was idly playing with her hair, showing no interest at all in the pastries on the table.

In fact, two hours earlier,

she and Beidou had already arrived in Liyue.

However, to better understand Su Han, she had spent two hours wandering around the streets.

Click.

The wooden door creaked open.

Yae Miko turned her head and her eyes lit up instantly.

What a handsome young man.

In terms of looks, he was even more striking than Kamisato Ayato.

This national treasure's appearance...

wasn't bad at all.

"Hello, I'm Su Han... I never expected the renowned Lady Yae, the Grand Shrine Priestess, to come all the way to Liyue. What business do you have with me?"

"That's all because of someone's overwhelming charm."

Yae Miko smiled seductively.

Her entire body exuded an intoxicating fragrance.

This sly fox always enjoyed teasing others.

Su Han was naturally well-prepared.

Seeing that he wasn't affected by her charm, Yae Miko laughed even more delightedly.

"I've heard you're a traveler from another world? Could you tell me stories from other worlds? Don't worry... I won't pry into your secrets.

I'm simply fascinated by tales from different realms.

Also, I myself am a novelist and part-time editor-in-chief."

Faced with Yae Miko's proposal,

Su Han suddenly remembered that this sly fox also ran a publishing house—the Yae Publishing House.

A place dedicated solely to releasing novels.

Should he become a plagiarist?

Or perhaps adapt those movies, TV shows, and novels he'd seen before?

Thinking this, Su Han smiled at her and said, "I have plenty of stories. How about we collaborate on publishing books? I'll provide the stories,

and you handle the publication.

What do you say?"

"Oh? You're so confident... If your stories are truly that captivating, then we might consider working together."

Yae Miko was extremely curious.

She wondered what kind of stories he could possibly tell.

As it turned out, the materials Su Han provided

utterly broadened Yae Miko's horizons.

"A Demon God from another world arrives in Inazuma and becomes a shogunate general..."

"Just by checking in every day, rewards are obtained..."

"A golden finger can actually be an old man? And the old man turns out to be Inazuma's previous Demon God? Interesting... fascinating, truly fascinating.

Especially this 'broken engagement' trope.

It immediately grabs the reader's attention.

I think it'd be best to feature the young lady from the Kamisato family.

The wicked Kamisato Ayato comes to break off the engagement.

The young adventurer angrily declares: 'Thirty years on the east bank, thirty years on the west!' Hahaha, this is simply too amusing.

Su Han, my trip here was definitely worth it."

"A story called Demon Slayer? Such creatures really exist? That's truly intriguing. Breath of the Sun techniques, demons who can only be killed by decapitation..."

"How do you know so many stories?"

Yae Miko listened to one thrilling tale after another.

Laughing so hard her body swayed like blooming flowers.

She felt her Yae Publishing House was about to rise to unprecedented heights.

These stories wouldn't just sell in Inazuma.

They could even reach other nations.

The more Yae Miko looked at Su Han, the more she liked him, and she even began entertaining thoughts of recruiting him away.

"Hey... want to join our Inazuma?"

Finally, Yae Miko could no longer resist and extended an olive branch.

Such an interesting and powerful fellow.

If he were to join Inazuma,

she would truly be spared a lot of trouble.

Su Han shook his head upon hearing this: "I won't go to Inazuma; your place is too chaotic..."

Liyue is so much better.

Full of beautiful women.

A nation with immense strength.

Now, with his help, the country was gradually stabilizing.

Not to say he controlled everything,

but his status was second only to the top, above all others.

Yae Miko frowned slightly, suddenly recalling rumors from the streets.

So she teased: "Could it be you're reluctant to leave the beauties here? Let me tell you, Inazuma has even more gorgeous women.

For example, the famed White Heron Princess of Inazuma.

The mighty General Kujou.

Both are peerless beauties.

The former gentle as a white lamb, the latter a cold beauty.

But you men surely enjoy that sense of conquest, don't you?

Just come to Inazuma—I’ll definitely make her your wife, how about that?"

Looking at the fox woman's sly, seductive face, Su Han remained unmoved.

He didn't even change his expression.

Nonsense.

Who knew more about Inazuma than him?

Haishu Island played house every day.

The Tenryou Commission was colluding with the Fatui.

The entire nation was in utter chaos.

Going there in the past was simply asking for punishment.

Maybe I'll still end up getting sliced by the Raiden Shogun.

Why bother.

Su Han shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, but I won't go over. Beauty is nothing but fleeting clouds to me..."

Yae Miko was so angry her teeth itched.

And she actually has the nerve to say that.

Today going out with this girl, tomorrow traveling with that person—rumor has it there's now another celestial disciple by her side.

Supposedly beauty is just fleeting clouds to her.

It's just not good enough quality!

Angry or not.

Yae Miko still wanted to win Su Han over.

Because she truly needed someone to help her.

Inazuma was currently in complete chaos.

Relying on herself alone, she could no longer reverse the situation.

Yae Miko calmed her emotions, stared intently at Su Han, and whispered, "What if I give you that lofty Thunder God? How about that?"

"Then you should be willing to help our Inazuma, right?"

Su Han looked at the wretched fox with utter astonishment.

What's wrong with her?

Did she take the wrong medicine or something?

To win me over, she's actually selling out the Thunder God?

Su Han burst into laughter, "Aren't you afraid the Thunder God will slash you for this?"

"Then tell me what else I should do? As the Thunder God's subordinate, I can't even see her face, only watch helplessly as Inazuma step by step descends into ruin.

The people within the country aren't just stubborn logs.

They're a bunch of scoundrels.

If there were any other options, would I stoop so low…"

Yae Miko's expression was infinitely desolate.

For some reason.

She was willing to pour out her inner oppression to Su Han.

Everyone knows Yae Hakushi is extraordinarily intelligent, the most beautiful person.

But those hardships.

Only she herself truly understands.

Su Han was pondering whether he should help her a little, though going to Inazuma itself was impossible.

However, for the sake of future plans.

Getting involved in Inazuma early might not be a bad idea.

He was about to level up to a second-tier group chat.

Among the ten newly opened slots.

Originally, he had planned to reserve one spot for Kamisato Ayaka.

Since Yae Miko was right before him, why not invite her into the group instead?

Looking at the dispirited wretched fox.

Su Han found it highly feasible, so he said to Yae Miko, "Hey... I have a plan that can save Inazuma. Not sure if you'd like to cooperate?"

"Go on, I'm listening."

Yae Miko straightened her posture.

Adopting the appearance of an attentive listener.

"At present, changing Inazuma's status quo is basically impossible, unless someone can defeat the Thunder God hiding in the Plane of Euthymia..."

"How do you know her hiding place!"

Yae Miko's face showed shock.

This person hadn't even been to Inazuma.

And even people from Inazuma didn't know where Ying was.

They merely assumed the General was the Thunder God.

Just who exactly is this man before her eyes?

Seeing the wretched fox's expression, Su Han was extremely satisfied.

"Don't look at me with such surprise. Since you've communicated with Beidou, you should know I come from another world and understand this world very well.

For ordinary people, the probability of defeating the Thunder God is far too low.

Even if you waited a thousand or a hundred years.

There might not be a single person daring to face the Thunder God's blade.

But I'm different—I can defeat her!

Give me a little time.

I will surpass the gods!

Then I'll go to Inazuma and help you shatter the Thunder God's ridiculous eternity—how about that?"

This proposal was naturally incredibly tempting.

As long as Ying could realize her mistakes.

Actually, the matter of Inazuma is very easy to resolve.

Yae Miko looked at Su Han, their gazes locking.

There was no falsehood or lie.

This man was serious!

"What's the condition? A man like you wouldn't help others for nothing."

"The condition is to betroth the Raiden Shogun to me!"

"You... you actually dare to say that! Hahahaha... Still, I'm kind of happy someone likes that shut-in girl."

Yae Miko froze for a moment, then burst into laughter, her body shaking like swaying flowers.

So someone actually liked that reclusive girl.

Not bad.

This way, I can solve Inazuma's problem and settle my best friend's lifelong marriage at once.

Perfect!

Most importantly, if someone watches over Ei, she won't do anything foolish again.

"By the way..." Yae Miko suddenly remembered something and asked, "When are you planning to act? Don't make me wait hundreds of years..."

"Within about a year. Right now, I can't defeat the Raiden Shogun."

"You're bluffing! Defeat Ei within a year?"

Yae Miko's first reaction was disbelief.

What could one year possibly achieve?

It wasn't even enough time to master a martial art.

To think of defeating Ei—this was pure fantasy.

Su Han gave a mischievous smile and said, "How about we make a bet? If I defeat the Raiden Shogun within a year, you and she will both marry me."

"Fine. But if you lose, leave Liyue and come serve in our Inazuma..."

Yae Miko replied with an indifferent expression.

Su Han had only been in this world for a year.

He didn't even know how to fight before.

You're telling me he'll beat Ei a year from now?

Not a soul would believe it!

Then Su Han drafted a contract, complete with confidentiality clauses, stating that starting from today, if he defeated the Raiden Shogun within one year,

Yae Miko would have to marry him along with her.

Staring at the glowing contract before them.
