Chapter 772: Gift, the Shogunate's Retreat, and the Resistance Army Teppei

Jiang Yi looked down from the air. In this short moment, many refugees began to believe in him, and those who already believed in him became more devout.

This is a village that has been revived from desolation, and it is now a pure land that many people want to protect.

The seeds of true energy condensed in his hands.

It was poured down upon the original villagers and miners of Himiki Village who led the resistance against the shogunate army.

"By the grace of my Lord."

Washizu felt the waves of true energy emanating from the villagers beside him that came from the same source as his own, and smiled.

The Lord was watching him and watching them.

The rolling true energy was emitted, and it also transmitted the skills of shield and auxiliary magic weapons.

Dozens of villagers looked delighted, feeling the compassionate and vast consciousness. They instantly grasped the power in their bodies and mobilized it.

The mysterious power connected into a piece, bringing the sharpness of swords and spears, and stood like a wall of air, shocking the rebels and the shogunate army.

"The changes just now..."

"A gift of divine power?"

The shogunate army generals looked puzzled, with a hint of solemnity and nervousness, as they thought of the rumors.

The gods can grant power to mortals, allowing them to kill monsters. Today's witches also have secret methods to draw on divine power.

These people are obviously not priestesses, so it means that the other party’s gods have voluntarily granted them power.

Yes.

Now that Jiang Yi's cultivation and perception have improved, the true qi seeds he condenses are also different from before. He can add combat memories and combat methods to them, and can even allow people to master them instantly.

These people can be regarded as believers and followers of "Lord Bodhi Miaoye", who generously bestowed them with more power than that of the Liyue Lingshan Sect.

But true qi is still true qi, not the divine power that the shogunate army generals thought.

"I can't distinguish the elemental attributes." The general felt gloomy.

He rushed forward, intimidating the rebels like a tiger or a wolf, and angrily said: "The shogunate army has never killed innocent civilians. This is a slander."

"The rebels destroyed the town of Bayun Island, and you are the culprit."

The tall figure shouted in a voice that left no room for doubt.

After hearing this, the six members of the resistance army immediately cursed: "Shameless, you are confusing right and wrong and ignoring the facts. Your persecution of civilians is known to everyone."

"We, the resistance army, have never destroyed the town objects. This incident was obviously done by your shogunate army."

The rebels are dedicated to the civilians, how could they do such a thing?

Faced with the slander of the Shogunate army, the six young men's faces turned red.

The generals of the shogunate army did not know whether they had destroyed the treasury, but they did kill civilians. How could they admit to such a thing?

The people of Himiki Village watched the quarrel between the rebels and the shogunate army with indifference.

To them, both sides are destroyers of the peace.

"Ah!"

The villagers of Feimu Village sneered and a stack of flyers appeared in their hands.

"Take your shitty flyers with you."

The buzzing leaflets were showered on the rebels and the shogunate troops.

Washizu's face was solemn: "Shogunate army, if you don't want to leave, then stay!"

Although I don't want any villagers to get hurt or sacrificed, if the other party insists on taking action, I will have no choice but to kill them first.

"And...Rebels, you are not welcome here either!"

"We are not going to war."

Washizu could guess the purpose of the rebels with his eyes closed.

"No! Wait!" said the leader of the rebels, "The shogunate army hurt you so much, we are on the same front!"

"Get out!" Everyone in the Himuk Village shouted, "If you don't get out, stay."

The god who protects the village actually grants power to everyone except the village chief, giving them supreme courage.

Step forward, pressing forward with weapons in hand.

The soldiers of the Shogunate army looked at the unknown power, the condensed translucent shields and spear beams, and the heavy black crowd pressing down on them, and for the first time they felt fear in their hearts and retreated back.

Perhaps, after they were killed, the shogunate army would help with revenge and march across the border to wipe out the rebellious villages, but they were really dead.

The "person" who would save those who were about to die in the war, no matter how generous and compassionate he was, would not come to save those who came to offend "him".

Giving power to the villagers of Himeki Village has already shown his attitude.

The general of the shogunate army was thinking about it, and then he looked at the soldiers whose morale had dropped, and waved his hand and said, "Let's go! Report to the shogunate and we will discuss it later."

The shogunate soldiers suddenly felt as if they had been pardoned, and they retreated in a rage and disgrace.

Really, they are not the culprits who killed the villagers of Himiki Village, why should they risk their lives for the Kujo family!

As soon as the shogunate army left, the villagers of Himiki Village cheered as if they had won a great victory and looked at the rebels who were surrounded by them.

Sweat broke out on the foreheads of the six young men from the rebel army.

"Wait, I want to see your Venerable. I know the envoys under your Venerable." The leading young man shouted instantly, "They once helped repair the talisman of Bayun Island."

The villagers stopped and found out that there were indeed two messengers under the Venerable, a blonde girl and a floating white elf. While the Venerable was treating patients and saving lives, they followed the Venerable's instructions and helped repair the talisman.

They are also planning to carve two wooden sculptures and place them next to the statue of the Venerable.

"It's not a lie!" Village Chief Washizu confirmed it, "Then you wait here until the Venerable summons you."

The leader of the rebels wiped his sweat and said, "Got it."

Jiang Yi sat under the Bodhi tree and looked at Jiujin and the villagers who came here.

Some people bowed to salute. Jiang Yi stipulated that unless it was a major sacrifice, there was no need to kneel, and one only had to put their hands together and bow.

"Your Excellency, are we going to join the war?"

Someone asked.

His Holiness sent an envoy who knew the rebels and asked them whether they were interested in forming an alliance with them.

Jiang Yi shook his head: "You don't have to participate in the war, just stay in Feimu Village."

"Next, I will leave this place and look for a way to stop the war. If a large army approaches, open the barrier and call me."

"Washizu, you take care of the rest. I'm going to go meet the rebels."

Washizu bowed and saluted: "Yes! As ordered by Your Excellency."

Everyone bowed together, and His Holiness was as approachable and compassionate as ever.

Protect them from participating in the war, but go looking for ways to "stop the war" yourself.

After all, His Majesty Inazuma Ogosho is a mountain.

Suddenly, they became more pious and praised the compassion of "Lord Bodhi Wonderful Leaves" together.

The young man who was leading the rebels, dressed in a brown, red and white rebel uniform and with short black hair, looked at the handsome man in moon-white clothes who was walking towards them. The villagers who were guarding them stepped back and saluted, calling him "Your Excellency".

"This is 'Bodhi Myoha Lord'." This thought flashed through his mind, "He is also the person with the highest bounty on the shogunate's wanted list, the one who fought against General Raiden and destroyed the 'Eye Hunting Order' ceremony for the 100th Eye of God."

"So young! He is now the 'god' of Himiki Village."

With nervousness and awe, he gave his name.

"Hello... I'm Teppei, a member of the resistance army's Shrimp Goby Squad." He tried to hold his head high and chest out, saying the name of the team that was a source of pride and honor to him.

The other five companions are also members of their team.

He was not the captain, but was pushed forward to lead the negotiations because he knew the envoy of that Venerable.

"Zhe Ping..." Jiang Yi looked at the young man in front of him, repeated his name, and said with a smile, "What do you want from me?"

Zheping saluted: "We came to thank you for saving our fellow rebels on the battlefield. We want to invite you to join... to join! No! To visit the rebel camp."

"I think that when you arrive at the rebel camp and meet our compatriots, you will change your mind, just like your messenger."

"Really?" Jiang Yi said gently, "Then go and have a look!"

He knew that Ying and Paimon had infiltrated the resistance in order to investigate the Fatui spies within the resistance and obtain evidence of their communication with the Fatui.

So, go check it out too.

The rebel camp, Fujidou Fort, was actually just opposite the Feimu Village, but because of the narrow barrier of the Wuxiang Blade, the two places were separated by a natural chasm and could not be passed quickly.

You need to take a detour or take a boat.

However, with Jiang Yi around, the originally difficult journey became easy.

A transparent fairy rune rainbow bridge spans the canyon full of thunder elements.

The six members of the rebel army admired the magic and followed him onto the Rainbow Bridge, passing Tengdou Fort.

Logically, they should be worried. After all, this Rainbow Bridge can allow the people from Feimu Village to attack the rebel camp at any time. However, when they think that the other party is revered as a god by the people of Feimu Village, it seems natural and they start to worry unnecessarily.

They didn't know the power of the gods before, but now they have some understanding of it.

That is a power that is endlessly mysterious and can easily change the course of war.

Some rebel soldiers had already hurried over to Tengdou Fort, looked at the Rainbow Bridge and the seven figures walking on it, and bent down to put their arrows on it.

"It's us..." Teppei shouted, "We invited the Venerable from Himiki Village. This is the Venerable's technique."

The soldier who was bending over to nod his arrows put down his bow.

From here, they can actually clearly see the mountain-like head of the giant snake on the other side of the narrow gap of the Wuxiang Blade. They can also vaguely see the Feimu Village and the Bodhi tree that rises from the ground in the sky of Feimu Village, surrounded by golden light and auspicious clouds.

Hearing that extremely loud and magical praise.

"Zheping, you're back!"

The soldiers gathered around and breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that all six people sent to the Feimu Village had returned. Then they looked curiously at the man who was hailed as a god.

Standing there, it really makes you stand out.

The appearance, temperament, eyes... are all extraordinary.

The golden rune rainbow bridge behind Jiang Yi slowly dissipated.

"Well! I will take this venerable to see Lord Wulang, and then show him around. I won't talk to you any more." Zheping said to his companions and then to Jiang Yi.

"Our general Goro-sama is over there..." He sighed, "The current situation of our resistance army is not very good. Let me tell you about it on the way."

He wanted to recruit people into the resistance, so naturally he had no intention of hiding it.

Moreover, Jiang Yi has already gained the favor of many rebels by saving people on the battlefield.

Jiang Yi listened carefully.

"We are short of soldiers and have been at a disadvantage on the front lines,"

"The shogunate army aims to maintain 'eternity', and they are led by the general Kujo Sara, who is a member of the Tenryo Bugyo, so they are very strong. On our side... because of the 'Eye Hunting Order', there are very few people who even possess the Eye of God."

What Zheping said was news that Jiang Yi had known for a long time, but Jiang Yi did not interrupt him.

"We are still able to withstand the pressure, on the one hand thanks to the various ingenious strategies of Coral Palace-sama, and on the other hand thanks to the heroic fighting of Goro-sama and the resistance fighters."

Zheping glanced at Jiang Yi. Jiang Yi's saving people could actually be one aspect, but he was puzzled that Jiang Yi only saved people on the battlefield and did not change the war situation.

He was clearly wanted by the shogunate and was completely hostile to it.

But rescue all those who are about to die equally.

This is something I don’t understand, and perhaps that’s why he is revered as a “god”.

However, this action also caused some people to have some objections.

As soon as they left, the resistance soldiers behind them surrounded the other five people and asked them about their experiences in Himuk Village.

They encountered the shogunate army! The Himimura rebelled! They were so disappointed that they didn't go.

But I was also nervous, and the crises I encountered were also thrilling.
