Chapter 223 5 Million Mora to be Delivered
Chapter 223 5 Million Mora to be Delivered
"The general has been assassinated! Seal off the entire area!"
"Quickly! Go and protect the emperor!"
"Protect the General!"
As General Thunder's body fell from the sky, the surrounding soldiers instantly became restless.
Although they kept shouting that they would step forward to protect the emperor, their actions betrayed their words.
No one dared to step forward.
What a joke! Someone who can catch a lightning general's blade with their head is not someone they can mess with.
They're just going up there to deliver vegetables to people.
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way right now!"
A hurried figure was rushing towards General Lei Dian's location from the outer perimeter of the soldiers. Upon seeing this person, the surrounding soldiers quickly made way for him.
...
Before General Raiden's body fell to the ground, Shiraki reached out and grabbed her by the back of her collar.
"You take them away first, I still have this matter to attend to."
Bai Mu, carrying the Thunder General, ignored the soldiers around him and waved to Ying as if no one else was there.
"Okay, then I'll take them with me first."
Ying first pulled Paimon out of the ground and tucked him under her arm.
Then she and Thomas helped Lin Sheng, who was still lying dead on the other side, to his feet. Throughout the entire process, not a single soldier dared to step forward to stop them.
Only after watching them walk away did Bai Mu turn his gaze away.
At that moment, Shiraki suddenly noticed that in front of him stood a woman whose style was completely different from that of the soldiers around her.
"Sir, please put our general down."
Seeing Shiraki turn his head, Kujo Sara spoke to him stiffly.
"Ok."
Shiraki nodded in agreement.
Just as Kujo Sara was still feeling unreal about Shiraki's quick thinking, Shiraki's next words immediately dispelled her surreal thoughts.
"Five hundred million Mora, cash on delivery, people on hand."
"you..."
Kujo Sara was instantly enraged.
A while ago, their Kujo family had their Mora property seized for 600 million yen, so they were already facing a cash shortage.
Now Bai Mu is making outrageous demands, asking for 500 million Mora right off the bat. How could they possibly come up with that?
Moreover, even if she could afford it, she wouldn't give it to him.
Because Kujo Sara couldn't guarantee that if they gave Mora to Shiraki, he would definitely release Raiden General.
"Fine, if you won't give it to me, I already have enough 600 million Mora to spend anyway."
Seeing Kujo Sara's angry expression, Shiraki smiled slightly. After all, he was just saying it and didn't really intend to hand over Raiden General.
Then, Shiraki flashed and flew towards the castle tower not far away.
Kujo Sara didn't immediately chase after her; she stood there, somewhat dazed.
Shiraki's words were still echoing in her mind.
"Anyway, the previous 600 million Mora was enough to live on."
......
Upon arriving at the castle tower, Shiraki found a chair and then placed General Raiden's body on it.
Shiraki patted General Raiden, but General Raiden did not react.
"Did it crash?"
He muttered to himself, and clapped his hands a few more times, still not believing in the superstition.
Still no response.
"Looks like it really crashed."
He picked up his dream and focused his mind on it, and soon found the place of his pure heart.
Bai Mu's consciousness entered the Pure Land of One Heart.
In the Pure Land of One Mind, he saw a figure sitting cross-legged in meditation.
He quietly walked up to Ying's side.
"?!"
The sudden shout startled Ying, who was immersed in meditation.
She raised her head and looked at Bai Mu with a surprised and uncertain gaze.
"Why did you get in?"
"Huh? No."
Why are you acting so strangely right now?
The film's subject wanted to ask Shiraki how he entered his dreamland.
But when she saw Shiraki's figure, her attention was instantly drawn to Shiraki's current state.
In Ying's current perception, Shiraki's current state is very strange.
He seemed like an ordinary person, harmless, but Ying felt that he could not pose any threat to him.
Furthermore, Ying could also sense a kind of suppression emanating from him due to his superior status.
This sense of oppression aroused Ying's curiosity.
You must know, she is a deity.
The fact that her divine status could be suppressed made Ying very curious about Bai Mu's current state.
"It is my consciousness that enters the dream world."
"My consciousness is special and will not be affected by wear and tear."
Shiraki pointed to himself and explained to Ying.
He is a consciousness that has entered the Pure Land of One Mind, so what is presented to the shadow is also the state of consciousness.
Ying probably realized that his consciousness was very special, which is why she asked that question.
"That's it, I understand."
Upon learning that Shiraki claimed her consciousness was unaffected by wear and tear, Ying understood why Shiraki's rank was higher than hers.
Bai Mu's consciousness should be at the same level as the Heavenly Principles.
Only in this way can the white wood be protected from wear and tear, and its consciousness will be at a higher level than its own.
"Tell me, why did you come to me?"
After resolving her doubts, Ying asked Bai Mu about his purpose in coming here.
"Let's talk outside. Your Thunder General has crashed, so you can use his body for a bit."
Ying nodded; she also wanted to go outside to talk.
In the Pure Land of One Heart, the suppression of Bai Mu's position made her feel very uncomfortable.
...
After emerging from the Pure Land of One Heart, Bai Mu suddenly sensed that there was another person beside him.
This person was none other than Kujo Sara, who arrived late.
“I have something to discuss with your gods. Please stand aside for a while.”
Before Kujo Sara could speak, Shiraki casually waved his hand.
In an instant, Kujo Sara felt that she could no longer move her body.
Not only that, she couldn't even make a sound.
At this moment, Ying slowly opened her eyes and stood up from the chair.
She paid no attention to Kujo Sara beside her; at this moment, she was looking at Shiraki with a strange expression.
"You're really amazing. You paralyzed her with just two words."
Clearly, after Shadow emerged, Liu had already accessed General Thunder's previous memories.
Seeing that Shiraki had rendered General Raiden's month-long preparations futile with just his facial expressions and two words, even the Shadow gave Shiraki a thumbs up.
"Uh...it's nothing."
Shiraki scratched his head awkwardly.
He thought to himself, "What's this?"
If you can bring a stragglers to their knees with just one sentence, that's real skill.
Shiraki shook his head, banishing the unrealistic idea from his mind.
He wasn't from Zu'an District in his past life, so he doesn't have this ability.
"By the way, the reason I came to see you this time is to invite you to the Liyue Lantern Festival."
"Go and see the lights of Liyue; I believe it will help your state of mind."
