Move as many people as possible to the sea and go to where the divine cherry is.
At the same time, the royal power system of this world will be completely destroyed.
Although wherever there are people, there will be classes, and there will be rulers and the ruled, but Rikukan took all the power in this world into the Wajima Taisha Shrine.
He must ensure the inheritance of the witches and the inviolability of the divine Son of God. In this way, there will be a steady stream of sacrifices dedicated to Shia to maintain the control of the Pure Fire.
The impact of the filth was far faster than Lu Jian imagined. Within a few months, Hedao was completely devastated.
Those once-powerful countries were destroyed in an instant, the once-rich mountains and rivers were turned into filthy forbidden lands, and all life was in ruins. The world's population was reduced by more than half in a short period of time.
Washima Taisha Shrine was also built amidst the disaster.
Those torii gates, porches, and pavilions rise from the ground and are built on the branches of the sacred cherry trees.
There are many more people from all over the world coming to the island where Wajima Taisha Shrine is located.
The top of Washima Taisha Shrine is known as the residence of the Son of God.
Looking at the towering attic, Lu Jian had a feeling that this was indeed the case.
The courtyard he is in now will become a coffin for the ashes of the Son of God in the future. It will be empty and devoid of any life.
And that magnificent attic will destroy more lives, ideals, and hopes in exchange for the survival of this world.
This makes people think, is this really worth it?
In the empty main hall, Lu Tan and Bao Bao sat opposite each other.
"It's really troublesome. I can only keep a serious look in front of those people. It's better to be more relaxed like this."
Baobao didn't sit up. He was lying on the ground with his two slender legs swaying like a teenage girl.
"You don't have to act either."
Lu Jian commented.
"But it's more fun this way."
Leopard sat up and moved a little closer.
"I just like this immersive feeling. No matter how hard you work, you will gain something. Isn't this what you humans say the most?"
"Yeah?"
Lu Tan replied calmly.
Lu Jian found it difficult to evaluate what Baopao had done.
She herself is the incarnation of the chaotic and nameless evil god. As long as she is willing, all the sacrifices and destruction of the island can be reversed, and even Shia, the future Momiji, and Kohaku can all be saved.
But she made it happen.
It can be said that Leopard, who could save the world or destroy it, chose the most tortured way.
Perhaps this is the difference between alien gods and human thinking.
Don't try to control, rely on, or trust these guys, they only act for their own purposes.
Thinking of this, Lu Tiao heard a knock on the door.
"Come in."
As soon as he finished speaking, Baobao sat upright again, looking holy.
The door was pushed open, and a young woman wearing white clothes and scarlet haori walked in.
She is about fourteen or fifteen years old, with short black hair. She looks childish, yet calm and capable.
"Lord Shenzi, dinner is ready. Do you want to eat now?"
The witch glanced at Lu Jian and then lowered her head.
"Bring them all up."
Baobao said in a serious tone. After hearing this, the witch picked up the dinner plate and brought the relatively elegant food in front of Baobao.
Bao Bao picked up the tableware and took a look at the dinner, which was large enough for three people.
A variety of meats including fish and chicken, as well as vegetables, fruits, and soups are rich and delicious, exuding an attractive aroma.
"so much?"
Baobao has also complained before, this is not worshiping the Son of God, it is simply raising pigs.
Not to mention that she does not need to eat to obtain nutrition. Even if it is for pleasure, in this era, such a diet can be called a luxury.
"This is in accordance with the standards of the royal family... I have told the kitchen to try to make it less and more elegant, but they are worried that Lord Shenzi is not satisfied enough, so..."
The witch's voice was soft and soft, with a bit of cowardice.
"Those emperors probably only ate one bite of each dish."
Lu Jian explained.
"It is said to prevent poisoning. If a dish is eaten twice, it will definitely not be seen the next day."
"That's quite pitiful."
Baopao sighed and looked at the witch again.
"Have you eaten yet?"
"...Back to Master Shenzi, not yet."
The witch lowered her head and answered tremblingly.
"Then let's eat together. I can't finish it anyway."
Baopao said, putting the bowl in her hand.
"This, this is not etiquette..."
The witch looked very frightened and quickly refused.
"You don't obey my orders?"
Leopard suddenly lowered his voice.
"No, I don't dare."
The miko hurriedly bowed her head and apologized.
"Bring me two more sets of bowls and chopsticks, and the three of us will eat together."
Baobao ordered.
The witch could only fetch two more sets of bowls and chopsticks, and sat down between Baopao and Lu Jian, feeling a little cramped.
"Eat whatever you want."
Leopard said.
The witch picked up a piece of green vegetable leaf, put it into her mouth, chewed it carefully, and glanced at Leopard from time to time, for fear that she had done something wrong.
"Eat more meat and look at the bones in your body."
Baobao immediately picked up a piece of fish and put it in her bowl.
The shrine maiden looked at Lu Jian with some confusion.
"Eat."
Lu Tan looked away from the other person's amber eyes and said in a deep voice.
The witch picked up the fish in the bowl and ate it into her mouth, her eyes suddenly lit up.
"tasty......"
"I remember you were just a civilian before?"
Lu Jian asked.
"Yes, my parents are both farmers. Just because I have been a little different since I was a child, so..."
The witch quickly put down her chopsticks and told her story.
She has possessed some extraordinary powers since she was a child. Not only can she see the flow of wind in the atmosphere, but she can also predict the harvest of farmland. As she grows older, she can even control the weather within a certain range.
On this occasion, she was sent to the Great God of Wajima. After selection, she became one of the witches and served Leopard.
After dinner, the witch cleared away the dishes. Before leaving, she was stopped by Leopard again.
"Come over later. I want to ask you more about this place. Just sleep here tonight."
Hearing Baopao's words, the witch became frightened again. She didn't dare to shirk, so she could only agree nervously.
After the witch left, Lu Tian glanced at Baopao, who was lying on the ground again.
"You treat her very special."
"Of course."
Leopard said in a lazy voice.
"She has endured the pollution of a foreign land since she was a child and has extraordinary talents. If placed in other worlds, she would definitely be a genius who changes the times."
"Of course, it's not bad to be in this foreign land. I like her very much, so I want to know more about this little girl, cultivate a relationship with her, and tell her the beauty and hope of this world. It's best if we can become friends who talk about everything.
Or a closer soul friend, it would be best if I could feel pity, regret, and love for her, and feel sincere regret for what I am doing now."
"That's the only way..."
She turned her head and looked at Lu Jian.
"When I selected her as the next Son of God and turned those most ardent hopes into despair, I could taste the most personal pain. I said, I like this immersive feeling."
The corners of Baopao's mouth rose, as if he was extremely looking forward to what would happen next.
