Chapter 265 The Barrier is Hard to Break
The human territory of Yuanxia Palace.
After his return, Orobal issued an order that after returning to the earth, he would be under the leadership of the regime of the Thunder God Baal and live in harmony with the people of Inazuma.
This order naturally caused an uproar and gave rise to all kinds of suspicions, but none of them were about resistance, but mainly focused on future political status.
In the conference room, there were four people sitting around. They were the tribal leader Mengyun who was in charge of government affairs, his twin sister Acorus who was a general in the army, and the current human-god priestess, Coral Palace.
Ayame slammed the table and said angrily: "What on earth is Lord Omikami thinking? He surrendered before the battle. Are we, the navy, afraid of the Inazuma shogunate?"
Mengyun sighed slightly and explained: "Lord Omikami is also thinking about us. Judging from the current national strength, our army is inferior to the shogunate army."
"We are inferior to Inazuma in terms of equipment, food, and population. Rather than causing unnecessary losses, peaceful coexistence may be a better option."
"But, from now on we can't believe in the Great God, we need to set up that thing, Yujian..." Acorus scratched his head, unable to remember the difficult-to-pronounce name.
"It's the Great Palace of Takenami-no-Kami." The present-day miko reminded.
Acorus slapped his hand and said angrily, "Yes, that's it. We have to set up her shrine in the future. We can't just worship the Great Goddess."
"There's nothing we can do about it!" Mengyun comforted his sister and advised, "After all, we are merging into someone else's regime. We can't live and eat in someone else's house. Why don't we show some sincerity?"
"Sister Mengyun is right, Changpu, you must not conflict with the envoys in the future. This is not the same as ours." The tribal leader also said.
"I know, I know. I'm not stupid!" Chang Pu waved her hand and left immediately. She was feeling depressed and thought that going to the martial arts arena to fight would help her relax.
The three of them looked at each other and smiled helplessly.
The current human god priestess is a few years older than them. She is very tolerant of them, just like she would take care of her own brothers and sisters. However, this stubborn Acorus gives her a headache.
"By the way, Mengyun, since we will be in power together in the future, we should also keep some cards of our own in our hands."
"I know this. I'll call Acorus tomorrow and go to the beach to try to wake up the inspector general and gain some advantage in the military forces at sea." Mengyun put his hands on his chin, looked at the sand table on the table with his smart eyes, and said slowly.
The tribal leader said softly, "Sister Mengyun, you must be careful. How about I go with you tomorrow? I heard that the big whale has been sleeping on the deep seabed for nine hundred years."
"I don't know the details yet."
Seeing that the two were talking happily, the present-day priestess quietly retreated, closed the door, and walked away with a chuckle.
In the room, the tribal leader waved his arm and made a bold statement, saying: "After the merger, I will definitely fight against the legendary Great Tengu who entrenched in the Yingxiang Mountain lineage."
"Then, bring this mask, which symbolizes the pride and glory of the Tengu clan, to Sister as a souvenir!"
"If you only bring it to me, Changpu will be angry!" Mengyun looked at the child he raised since childhood and flicked his forehead with his hand.
This leader, who seemed inviolable in the outside world, was willing to do it, and he touched his forehead and grinned foolishly.
"You are so old, but you still act like a child. How shameless!" Mengyun looked away and pouted.
"Hehe, you're not just a child, sister. You said before that I'm not brave enough. When I go to defeat Tengu this time and come back wearing a mask, you have to promise me, sister!" The leader grabbed her soft hand. There was only a table between them.
Mengyun was caught by the hand, and she felt a little flustered. She quickly pulled her hand out. Although she was reluctant, she still stopped him and said, "I, I am your teacher, and also your sister!"
"We can't be together. This is against moral ethics. What will others say about me? And what will they think of you as the leader of the tribe?"
"I don't care. Besides, everyone in the tribe knows that I was picked up by my elder sister. Is it okay even if there is no blood relationship?" The leader clenched his fists, feeling heavy in his heart.
This was not the first time he had brought it up. Even though they were in love, they could not be together due to various reasons. If they were to get married, people in this world would definitely poke their backs and curse them.
Even though there is no blood relationship between the two, and even though the teacher did not teach him anything, this kind of unethical behavior is the most unbendable thing in the eyes of the people of Haizhi Island. Everything else is inferior to this.
"We need to make a lot of preparations to wake up the chief inspector tomorrow. I'll leave first, and you should go to bed early." Mengyun got up and left, walking to the door without looking back.
The leader stopped her and shouted, "Wait, sister, we really..."
"No, you really can't." Mengyun said, then ran out of the door and disappeared.
The leader, sitting there in a daze, looked at the position of his sweetheart, and felt that there was not only a table between them, but also an unattainable and difficult to break barrier.
This barrier is invisible and intangible, but it exists in a real way. Sometimes it is an order in the heart, or people's pointing and criticizing, or it may be the compliance with the so-called "sister-brother relationship" code of conduct.
This barrier was so thick, so thick that even if Sister was right in front of him, he couldn't hold her in his arms. It was so thick that he couldn't marry the one he loved, sleep on the same bed, and grow old together...
…………
A few days later, Orobal broke off the corals he had obtained from the Dark Sea and turned them into stairs to help people return to the earth.
These corals were what he had originally wanted to obtain in the past when he fought Morax, but unfortunately there was a huge gap in strength, and even with these corals he was no match for the other party's palm.
Now that their life and death are uncertain, and there is no other use for these corals, they are transformed into stairs to send the cursed people back to the earth and see the light of day again.
The tribesmen climbed up the coral stairs one by one, feeling hesitant. Has the curse of their ancestors been lifted? What is the world outside like?
These hesitations and doubts were replaced by overwhelming joy and happiness when the first tribesman successfully landed on Haizhi Island. The entire island was celebrating and singing.
After losing the coral, Orobal became much slimmer, but he still looked a little uncomfortable with his bald body.
But compared with the scene before his eyes, all these were unimportant. The One in heaven did not bring down divine punishment to destroy the human race that came to the earth.
That was tacit approval of this behavior. After many generations, the people of Kaiji Island finally set foot on the land where their ancestors lived again. They cheered for the power of Kaiji Daimikoto and praised the gifts he bestowed.
Some people think that this is Oropas's sacrifice, but it is true. If it were not for the previous events of the sun and the moon that triggered the arrival of that person and his interference, the residents of Haizhi Island would probably never have the chance to live on the ground.
Oropus looked at everyone on the island and muttered to himself, "Dead or alive, it doesn't matter. As long as you are alive, it's fine!"
"If you can think this way, then my help is not in vain!" Mo Ran landed beside the big snake and also looked at the island.
"Then I need to thank you?"
"Thank you for your use, there's no need to thank me."
"Haha, that's fine. I don't know how to say those cheesy words because it feels too hypocritical to say them, but if I don't say them, I feel like something is missing."
"If you want to say it, say it. If you don't want to say it, don't say it. You don't have to say everything clearly."
"Well, that's it... By the way, how are you going to hide it from the detection of that person in the sky?"
"You should have heard of Liyue's immortal magic formation."
"I'm lucky enough to have seen it. If you want to use this to hide my breath so that I won't be detected, forget it. That person has a special way of sensing the demon god. Simply hiding the breath will not work."
"What if we build a hidden magic circle that is completely isolated from the outside world and specifically hides you?"
"This does sound a lot more reliable, but can it really be done?"
"I have personally tested it and found that it can block the perception of the destiny star in the sky and isolate that person from detecting it. So let's add a few more layers and improve the holy soil of Haizhi Island at the same time."
Oropas was stunned, looking at the man in black in amazement, but he could not see any trace of joking or falsehood. He really had a way to change the sanctification of the land and change this barren land.
"This...thank you!"
Mo Ran waved his hand and looked at the shy big snake. Its huge body was twisting and it was obvious that it was very embarrassed. Even on its silver-white scales, there were spots of bright red, as if stained with blood.
"This is what you said on behalf of the people of Haizhi Island, so stop twisting your head. If you push away the soil, you can go to the sea to fish it out yourself!"
Before he finished speaking, Oropas stopped immediately and lowered his head, like a child who had done something wrong, waiting for his parents' reprimand.
Mo Ran chuckled. This silly big snake demon god made several similar figures appear in his mind. He immediately laughed and said, "Okay, go back and celebrate with your people. In a few days, Baal will send someone to discuss the merger."
"Okay." Orobasi moved a few times, turned around, looked at the man in black, and said with guilt in his eyes, "You have helped me so much, but I haven't even asked your name yet. Don't blame me!"
"My name is Mo Ran, Mo means black ink, and Ran means relieved."
"Mo Ran, OK! I've got this name in mind and will never forget it. When everything is over, I will put your name in the shrine, and people from all over Haizhi Island will worship it for generations to come! In the history of Haizhi Island, your name will be the most profound one!"
"Don't!" Mo Ran hurriedly stopped the big snake and said, "Don't use my name when recording or paying homage, otherwise you will always feel bad behind my back."
"What do we need?" Oropus asked in confusion.
"Go-Take-Nami-jin-shu-son-Taijō-gosho, this is my name in Inazuma. Let's use this to change the way the people of Kaijima view Inazuma. It'll kill two birds with one stone."
"I got it. I'll remember it..." Oropus swam towards the people, celebrating with them, and would not return until they were drunk.
He did not even leave behind his black robes, and his figure flashed around the edge of Haizhi Island. There was less than a month left, and he had to use all of it to set up a hidden formation and make preparations to resist that person.
