Inuyasha: A Different Kind of Dog General

Her fingertips slid across the cold sea water, and subtle ripples of demonic power spread out, calling out to the giant beast that had grown up with her.

The mermaid queen's usually proud back was now slightly hunched, and the undried blood on her scales was blurred by the sea water, turning into a light red mist.

Not far away, eight hundred nuns stood quietly on the waves, the light of their coral staffs dimming.

She lowered her eyes to look at the deep sea, and for the first time, a cold murderous intent appeared in her usually gentle eyes.

On the deck of the Tessaiga battleship, Nurarihyon sheathed his sword, and the blade's tip collided with the scabbard, making a slight "click" sound.

He looked up at the healing crack in the sky, his long golden and black hair blown up by the bloody sea breeze.

"The Royal Court's Skynet is truly a national treasure." He sighed in a low voice.

Behind Hua Piao, the third eye of Yatagarasu slowly closed, and a golden-red blood mark flowed from its forehead.

The cloak of the military leader, who was dressed as a middle-aged general, was now torn, revealing the dark golden chain mail underneath. Each piece of mail was engraved with a custom-made spiritual pattern seal from the Shaofuqing.

He raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth.

"All troops, rest."

A hoarse voice echoed across the deck, and less than two thousand Cang Ya soldiers silently and tiredly carried out the order.

The armor of these battle-hardened demon warriors was torn, and some of their weapons were broken, but they still maintained a strict formation.

Among them were dog demons shaking off the blood beads from the tips of their ears, and tengu folding up their broken wings.

More soldiers just bandaged their wounds in silence, their eyes still vigilantly scanning the distant horizon.

The sea breeze, carrying a salty smell, blew across the battlefield, making several tattered flags flutter.

On the starboard side of the warship, Qi Tian knelt on one knee and put the magic sword back into the scabbard at his waist.

His right arm was twisted unnaturally, but he still stared at the direction where the army of flying moths disappeared. In the pool of blood at his feet, the setting sun, dyed red by gunpowder smoke, was reflected.

Further away, the surviving merman dragoons were salvaging the bodies of their companions.

The sea beasts under them let out mournful cries, still gnawing at the enemy's limbs between their sharp teeth.

The fluorescent scales floating on the sea surface are like a silent funeral.

Nurarihyon chuckled.

"It's really... embarrassing."

The words dissipated in the sea breeze, and no one responded.

But all the warriors gripped their weapons tightly - they knew this was far from the end.

When the last ray of sunlight was swallowed by the sea level, the spiritual patterns of the Iron Fang battleship lit up one after another, drawing a dark blue trail on the dark sea and slowly sailing towards the south.

Ten days passed by like a flash.

The sea that was once dyed red with blood has now returned to its former deep blue.

The broken islands sank into the abyss, and the surging waves wiped out the traces of war.

——But today, this sea area will be ignited by the flames of war again.

On the deck of the Tessaiga, the Yatagarasu withdrew its palm, and the light screen projected by Skynet dissipated like broken stars.

"The flying demon moth has been dormant at sea for ten days. This time it will surely strike with the force of thunder."

Golden light flowed in his third eye, and he saw a certain future.

Hua Piao chuckled in response, "While the Flying Demon Moth is making preparations, we haven't been idle these days either. I'll take action when the time comes."

As he spoke, he looked to the side.

Whale Xi Qianji flew up from the waves and landed on the deck.

Her long silver-blue hair was no longer loose, but tied up high with a coral crown, revealing her cold and beautiful face.

The Eternal Night Whale was seriously injured and on the verge of death, causing the warmth in her eyes to completely disappear, replaced by a heart-pounding chill.

Qianji bowed deeply with the most solemn etiquette of the mermaid royal family, and the unhealed scar on the back of her neck was faintly visible among her silver-blue hair.

"The king's kindness will never be forgotten."

"Thank you, Deputy Commander, for using the Tianshengya Projection to maintain the life of the Eternal Night Whale!"

Her voice was as cold as the collision of broken ice, but a slight tremor escaped her when she mentioned the Eternal Night Whale.

The eight hundred nuns who also landed on the deck looked at the little princess who once had to hide under their wings.

The girl who used to be sad because of the withering of anemones now has a back as straight as the edge of a trident. Even her sadness has been tempered into armor to protect the sea. Her eyes reveal a look of heartache and relief.

"We are all members of the royal court, why do you have to do this? Get up quickly." Hua Piao's deep voice contained a reminder.

When Qianji stood up, the beads on her coral hair crown swayed gently, reflecting tiny spots of light in the sunlight.

She pursed her lips in slight confusion, not yet fully grasping the meaning.

Eight Hundred Bhikkhunis stepped forward at the right moment, her voice gentle yet firm, "The Sea of ​​Eternal Life will always be an inseparable territory of the royal court."

"That's good."

Hua Piao nodded slightly, and a hint of satisfaction flashed in his gilded pupils.

Everyone gathered around the sand table in the center of the battleship's command room. The ones operating the battleship now were not the two directors of the science and technology park, but a Kappa and a Yamako who were both capable and calm.

Apart from weapons and necessary living facilities, all the messy entertainment systems were deleted.

The terrain of the sea was reflected in the third eye of the Yatagarasu. Wherever his fingertips passed, he combined his own predictive ability and used Skynet's simulation system to formulate various battle plans.

The sound of discussion mixed with the rhythm of waves hitting the side of the ship, interweaving into a pre-war symphony.

At the same time, a meeting was also taking place on the military camp island of Fei Yao Moth.

The glazed palace lantern cast a pale green halo of demonic fire, shining on the calm face of the flying demon moth.

His fingertips tapped on the armrests, and every crisp sound made the demon generals' backs tighten.

All I heard was Fei Yao Moth saying slowly, "The strength of the Royal Court is obvious to all. Whether we can conquer the Sea of ​​Eternal Life and reach the land of Yunzhou in this battle depends on the three ministers of the Royal Court."

The Grand Marshal of the Royal Court, Chi Ya Wan, has already demonstrated his strength, and Fei Yao E will not underestimate the other Grand Marshal and Grand Tutor.

As for the Lord of the Royal Court, King Douya, Fei Yaoe did not think that he would take action.

Just like playing cards, who would throw out the royal bomb when the problem can be solved with 4 kings?

If this is true, the Flying Demon Moth can only use its trump card against the Demon God to increase the possibility of snatching the Singing Cauldron.

However, it was the Celestial Lotus that could sense the direction of the Ringing Cauldron, which put a sudden turn on the Flying Demon Moth's plan.

This major event involving his own path made him extremely passive.

If Lian had not destroyed her memory before taking action, the flying demon moth would have searched her soul and refined her spirit long ago.

At this time, Fei Yao said, "Commander-in-Chief, Qiongqi brought news earlier."

"The Royal Court's Grand Minister Lingyue Fairy Princess gave birth not long ago. Furthermore, as a descendant of the Royal Court, the possibility of her participating in the battle is extremely small."

"When I heard that Grand Sikong Witch Cuizi was pregnant, she would not fight."

"The only one who can influence the outcome of the battle is Grand Marshal Chiyawan."

After Fei Yao's deep report, Fei Moth interrupted, his voice as elusive as phosphorescent fire, "The Central Army led by Chiya Maru is currently in the heart of Yunzhou, confronting Qilin Maru."

"If we want to defeat the Northern Army in one fell swoop, we must have Kirinmaru pin down Akagamaru and prevent him from taking any other action!"

Having said that, the moth said coldly again.

"During the last battle, it was because of Chiyawan's interference that the Mermaid Queen was not killed and the victory was not expanded."

"Kirinmaru is really..."

The moth's unfinished accusation brought silence to the scene.

"The past is just prologue."

"What we need is to learn from experience and prevent the same thing from happening again."

The flying demon moth waved its hand to clear away the stagnant air in the hall. Its voice was as low as the undercurrent in the deep sea, and a cold light flashed in its compound eyes.

"Strengthen communication with Qiongqi and Hun Dun. We must confirm that Chiyawan and Qilinwan are truly engaged in battle before we attack southward!"

"Here!"

The four great monsters responded in unison.

..............................

Yunzhou, Qilinwan tower ship.

"The royal court and the army of flying demon moths are facing off in the air within the borders of the Sea of ​​Eternal Life."

Nourished by the rain and dew, Lu became even more charming and dazzling. She was talking to Qilinmaru inside the ship with only two people.

At this moment, a hint of sarcasm appeared on the corner of the charming woman's mouth, "They are probably still waiting for you to fight with Chiyawan."

Kirinmaru stood in front of the carved window with his back to her, his fingers stroking the hilt of the sword at his waist.

The moonlight coming through the porthole cast a silver glow on half of his face, while the other half was in shadow.

Outside the window, the night in Yunzhou is so dark that it cannot be dispelled.

On the skyline over a hundred miles away, the evil aura and smoke of the royal military camp rose into the sky, dyeing the clouds dark red, like a wound that would never heal, stretching across the night.

The occasional flashes of demonic light were like the eyes of an animal peering into the darkness.

In a place where Shilu couldn't see, Kirinmaru's expression was extremely complicated.

Chapter 230 Although there is no free wind in my time and space

Royal Court, central courtyard.

The midsummer sunlight poured down, but was filtered by the dense treetops into fine gold foil, which was scattered on the bluestone slabs.

The branches and leaves of the Tree of Ages rustled in the hot wind. After being nourished by the underground spiritual veins, each leaf was emitting a faint spiritual light.

The treetops spread out like a canopy, blocking out the sky and casting a cool shadow.

Colorful halos float between the leaves, interweaving with the steaming spiritual energy of the earth veins to form a hazy rainbow mist.

Occasionally, a leaf would fall, drawing a bright green trail in the air, and finally falling silently into the spiritual spring beside the tree roots, stirring up a circle of imperceptible ripples.
