Chapter 377: The Gods Have Not Abandoned Daliang

Suddenly, Zhou Yanli's figure swayed; he could no longer hold on, collapsed to the ground, and fell unconscious.

"Zhou Yanli!" Bai Wei cried out in alarm, quickly holding the gun in one hand, aiming it at Kimura, then maintaining the aiming posture as she slowly crouched down to quickly check his wound.

Zhou Yanli's eyes were tightly shut; he had already passed out.

Bai Wei could not afford to be distracted; she only managed a quick glance before letting out a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, he had only fainted from excessive blood loss, and the bullet had not hit any vital organs; it could be considered lucky!

Just then, seeing that Bai Wei was only focused on Zhou Yanli, the Young Master Li's eyes darted around, catching sight of the gun Kimura had dropped on the ground, and he snuck away from behind the wooden crate.

Suddenly, he lunged forward, grabbed the gun from the ground, and aimed it at Bai Wei.

"Go to hell—"

"Bang!"

A gunshot rang out!

Young Master Li's eyes were wide with shock; before he could even manage to fire, he was struck down to the ground by a single shot.

He fell backward, and the gun he held in his hand also dropped with a 'clatter'.

Bai Wei stood up, holding the gun in her hand, her expression cold.

Trying to compete with her in marksmanship as an ancient person—he had picked the wrong target.

She shot Young Master Li dead without the slightest hesitation; letting such a treacherous villain die with a single shot was letting him off easy!

Bai Wei walked forward and picked up the handgun from beside Young Master Li.

Kimura was simply stunned to see Bai Wei shoot and kill Young Master Li; his pupils dilated, "You, how are you such a good shot?"

Bai Wei smiled but did not answer.

Although the Fusang People had guns, both the firearms and the Ammunition were extremely precious, so naturally, it was impossible to practice shooting every day, which was why their marksmanship was not good.

Young Master Li had never used a gun and had only seen Kimura use one, so he knew even less how to use it.

However, she had the conditions to practice shooting in the modern era.

She had practiced shooting at a firing range for so long and had professional marksmanship instructors to guide her; now, even if her marksmanship wasn't a hundred hits out of a hundred, she hit whatever she aimed at with very little margin for error.

Bai Wei pointed the gun at Kimura and spoke in a cold voice.

"Kimura, thinking I was easy to deal with was a mistake."

Being pointed at by the pitch-black muzzle, Kimura's face turned pale; he had used guns and naturally knew how terrifying this thing was.

"Shopkeeper Bai, if you let me go, the gold, silver, and jewelry here, as well as the ores, will all belong to you."

"Belong to me?" Bai Wei sneered mockingly, "All the ores you've hoarded, as well as the antiques, gold, and silver, all belong to the Daliang Kingdom. You stole them and snatched them; you are nothing but thieves!"

"Your Daliang is already finished; the Imperial Court is corrupt, and the Emperor is incompetent!" Kimura shouted, "Only our Fusang Kingdom is the strongest. General Tokugawa will soon wipe out Daliang. If you surrender now and kill Zhou Yanli, General Tokugawa will surely reward you for your merits, and you can choose from all kinds of treasures."

He shouted until he was hoarse, but Bai Wei only found it amusing.

"A tiny nation wants to invade Daliang and occupy the land of Shenzhou?"

"You still want me to surrender? Are you still dreaming?"

Kimura steeled his heart, "Beside General Tokugawa is a powerful Shrine Maiden who can provide Fusang with all kinds of supplies. The handguns and Red Barbarian Cannons you see were all given to us by her! Moreover, she taught us how to smelt iron ore and make Explosives! Daliang doesn't have these things, and neither do other countries. One day, our Fusang will rule the world and become the master of the world."

"Master of the world?" Bai Wei couldn't help but laugh, "You are truly arrogant!"

"Your Daliang is already decaying; the fall of the nation is heaven's will. But as long as you spare me, I guarantee I will let you live when Fusang conquers Daliang in the future."

The smile on Bai Wei's face gradually faded, her eyes mocking, "Fusang has a Shrine Maiden, but does the Daliang Kingdom not have capable people?"

Kimura laughed derisively, "I know there is a very powerful Prince of Northern Defense in the Beijiang of your Daliang Kingdom, but what is the use of relying on him alone? Even if the Prince of Northern Defense is brave, he cannot defeat our Fusang warriors! Daliang's fate is exhausted; the gods have long since abandoned you. You no longer have gods; the gods have chosen Fusang, and Fusang is the master of this world!"

"Is that so?" Bai Wei smiled slowly, "Who says Daliang has no gods? My great nation of Huaxia has been blessed by countless gods over five thousand years—Fuxi, Nuwa, the two Emperors Yan and Huang... countless gods are watching over this land from the shadows; it is just that you do not know it."

After she finished speaking, she turned around and raised her hand.

In that very instant, the hundreds of rosewood crates stacked in the courtyard vanished instantly.

The crates were filled with firearms, Ammunition, and countless plundered gold, silver, and jewelry.

Kimura was stunned, looking at this scene in disbelief.

"This is... what is this?"

Bai Wei ignored him and walked to another spot.

"The gods have always been protecting Daliang, protecting the land of Shenzhou."

Following her voice, several thousand jin of neatly stacked grain and three Red Barbarian Cannons vanished with a 'whoosh', leaving only a patch of bare ground.

"Gods..." Kimura's face was full of horror; his legs went weak involuntarily, and he fell to his knees with a thud.

What had he just seen?

The mountain-like piles of crates, grain, and the Red Barbarian Cannons weighing thousands of jin had actually vanished into thin air right before his eyes!

Bai Wei walked to the center of the courtyard and looked up at the mountain-like pile of ores.

These ores weighed tens of thousands of jin, and in the Warehouse nearby, there was also Saltpeter, with moisture-proof lime and straw spread on the ground.

They were all things belonging to the Daliang Kingdom.

Bai Wei gazed at the ores, concentrated her mind, and spoke softly.

"The people of Daliang are also descendants of Yan and Huang; the gods have never abandoned Daliang or its people."

She raised her hand once more.

The massive pile of ores stacked like a small mountain before her, as well as the Saltpeter, all vanished into thin air!

In the blink of an eye, the Warehouse that had been full just a moment ago became incredibly empty.

All the supplies had disappeared, leaving only an empty space.

Kimura was completely dumbfounded, his mouth half-open as he stared at the scene before him, too shocked to recover.

Bai Wei turned around and spoke coldly.

"Daliang will not fall; it will prosper and flourish for a long time together with the people on this land of Shenzhou, creating a new history."

Kimura knelt on the ground, staring at her in astonishment for a long while before he regained his senses.

He shook his head vigorously and spoke with a tremble.

"You... who are you? Did you do all these things that disappeared?"

Bai Wei looked down at him from above.

"Didn't you just tell me that your Fusang has a Shrine Maiden who can provide you with all sorts of supplies? What, have you never seen her perform Teleportation of items?"

Kimura screamed in a breakdown, "Teleporting things out of thin air, how is that possible? She isn't a Goddess!"

Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he jerked his head up and stared fixedly at Bai Wei in horror.

"I think I know who you are! You, could you be that legendary Beijiang Goddess? The Daliang Kingdom actually has a real deity!"
