Rebirth of Devouring Dragon Emperor

Chapter 596 Flower Market and Ghost Market
In Japanese folklore, there is a very ancient shrine hidden at the foot of Mount Fuji.

Since Yang Xiaocong had conducted a serious investigation, she was naturally certain of its existence.

Because the members of the shrine often go out, although ordinary people have never seen the true face of the shrine, Yang Xiaocong believes that Ye Qing will be able to find it easily.

The shikigami Hanaoori was walking lightly in front, her steps were very floating, which had nothing to do with Ye Qing's elegant style, and it felt a bit like a floating ghost.

Chu Xian followed behind and asked curiously: "Your master is kind enough to send you to inform us of this news. Is that shrine also owned by the ninja lineage?"

Ye Qing walked casually with his hands behind his back. He could easily find the shrine, but he would not object to someone leading the way. It was better to be casual.

"It's not something from the ninja lineage." Hanako Orika explained as they walked, "Specifically, it shouldn't be called a shrine. A long time ago, people called it a flower market, a place where spirits gathered."

"Later, as time went by, the spirits disappeared, and some humans with spirit blood moved in to live there. It became a damaged little secret place, and they formed a small force of their own."

At this time, Ye Qing said: "Your master is smart. Let me help him eliminate the hostile forces."

"My lord, those guys are not really hostile forces. They just refuse to obey the Onmyoji's jurisdiction." Hanako Orika said with a smile, "Besides, my lord, you already planned to destroy those guys."

The route the three people took was right at the foot of Mount Fuji. Originally, modern roads connected everywhere here, but as they walked along, only some mountain paths remained.

What's even more strange is that the sun was clearly high in the sky at noon just now, but now the sky has become slightly darker, but the brightness is not as bright as at dusk.

Chu Xian felt very surprised. Being here and feeling it carefully, it was like entering another world.

"It's just a shabby and worthless little secret realm. Who knows when it will self-destruct. There's no need to be curious." Seeing his maid in this state, Ye Qing spoke.

Hua Xiaozhixiang took out a lantern from somewhere and illuminated the simple atmosphere around them.

She turned around and said, "Even in the ancient Japanese cultivation world, secret realms are extremely rare. The flower market we are going to is useless, and no force wants to take it for themselves."

This damaged secret realm could self-destruct at any time. No cultivator with a bit of ambition would live in it. If one is unlucky, one might accidentally cut off one's bloodline and inheritance, which would be disastrous.

"Because the flower market is on the verge of self-destruction, many residents have already moved out. Those who remain are all extreme conservatives."

At this point, Hua Xiaozhixiang smiled and even bent her eyebrows a little, and said in a relaxed manner: "So Lord Ye Qing, when you deal with those guys later, don't be polite."

No matter how this beautiful Shikigami tried to show his affection or hint at something, Ye Qing's attitude was: he would ignore everything except things that he had a little interest in.

If this is an intact secret realm, and if it is larger enough to meet the standards of a blessed land, it can be snatched away, Ye Qing thought as he walked.

Kyoto.

The Lord of Ninja Kingdom, Shen Yu, is actually a very conservative old stubborn person. He hates electronic communication tools such as mobile phones. But now, he has to hold the phone and yell at the other party angrily.

"Qianshou, you damned fellow, the masters I sent out were almost ready, but your Shikigami took Ye Qing away. Is this your attitude towards forming an alliance?"

Soon, a voice came from the other end of the phone, "Don't worry, this is one of the arrangements in the plan. Your people will ambush where they are. If he comes out, just kill him directly. Then our two families will work together to deal with the Chinese Warrior Alliance."

After hanging up the phone, Shenyu yelled angrily: "What an inexplicably arrogant old bastard. You actually treat your own country with such disrespect. One day you will regret it, hum!" At the same time, Yang Xiaocong drove to the foot of Mount Fuji. At this time, he learned through the radio in the car that he and several of his companions had been wanted by a Japanese agency.

This situation made them extremely anxious and they wanted to find Ye Qing's whereabouts as quickly as possible so that they would at least have someone to rely on.

Unfortunately, I couldn’t find the person and even the phone call couldn’t be reached.

Several clueless people stood there, looking at each other.

"God Ye, God Ye, where are you now?" Yang Xiaocong asked the sky speechlessly, her eyes full of confusion.

In fact, he didn't even know that he had already been to the gates of hell.

The ninja hiding in the dark was not interested in ordinary people like them, and did not want to alert the enemy, so he let them go.

The road ahead became darker and darker, and the faint light around us felt a bit like the starry sky on a midsummer night.

This also made the lantern in Hua Xiaozhixiang's hand even brighter.

Her steps became more brisk.

There are many shikigami with awakened spiritual intelligence, but there are very few shikigami with intelligence to the level of foresight.

And he seemed to like making friends with Ye Qing.

"Master Ye Qing, it would be great if you were an alchemist. I would be happy to go to China to serve you."

Chu Xian was a little annoyed. This woman actually wanted to steal his job. This was intolerable!
So he immediately sarcastically asked, "Why do you want to betray your original owner?"

Hanako Orika didn't seem to have much respect for her master, and answered easily, "Because China is the legendary birthplace of all things! It's almost impossible for us shikigami to complete the evolution of living beings. If we go to China, maybe there is hope that we can evolve into complete living beings."

The two women glanced at Ye Qing secretly, but his expression was extremely calm, as if he had not heard what was said just now. Or perhaps, he had simply ignored them.

Hanako Orika was extremely disappointed, but the emotions of these Shikigami came and went quickly.

Soon I heard her whisper, "We're at the flower market."

There seems to be a market town in front, but there is no trace of modern architecture. Every building is ancient and weird, similar to the thousand-year-old shrines outside.

The name of this place does not quite match that of a "flower market", rather it has a bit of the flavor of a "ghost market" in strange stories and gossips.

The people in the town were all normal, but when they reached the edge of the town, Hanako Orika became timid and the Shikigami didn't even dare to go inside.

An old man in the town sniffed and suddenly asked, "Erlang, no one from outside has said they are coming today, so why do you smell like a stranger?"

The young man called Erlang said impatiently: "Someone must have come here again. What a nuisance! I'll chase them away!"
