Chapter 124 Who betrayed me?
Qinglu City, the center of the Heijishan clan's territory.

Kadong——

The startled deer in the garden made a crisp sound. This was the center of the mansion, and the surrounding garden was decorated with rocks, sand, and some greenery, creating a landscape resembling an ink painting.

At the front of the courtyard, one can see a rather grand house with an open paper door facing the hall of the garden - that is a "meeting room" as big as twenty tatami mats, divided into upper and lower seats, and the scene of several people sitting opposite each other can be seen at a glance.

"It seems some people didn't make it back for this meeting, but never mind... Everyone, listen carefully. From now on, I, Kurohimeyama Miyuki, will preside over this meeting."

The one who made this announcement was the beautiful woman sitting in the upper seat.

She was wearing a kimono made of bright red material, like a ball of red flame.

The woman's eyes were also red, and her lips were dyed even redder by rouge.

This woman is none other than the head of the family, Kurohimeyama Miyuki.

The head of the household, Miyuki, also gives off a charming and gorgeous vibe. She has delicate features, a height rarely seen among women, and a unique presence.

"——This is a matter of great importance. There's no need to waste time. Long Zheng, could you please explain?"

The head of the family loosened the collar of his kimono and wore it in a bohemian manner, looking no different from a courtesan. However, no one dared to look at the head of the clan with any strange expression.

"As ordered."

The ninja leader of the ninja group, Sako Ryusei, nodded. He took out a scroll and spread it on the ground. It was a map.

Then, the young pillar of the Sakō family lightly tapped his right hand, and the scenery on the scroll map slowly floated, changing from a flat surface to a three-dimensional image, and gradually evolved into a three-dimensional geographical map of the Mutsu Province.

"The current situation is that the affected area is expanding."

His fingertips moved to a corner of the ground. That was the Yuejialuo territory at the northernmost tip of the Tsugaru Peninsula, and also the lair of the evil god Kotankoro Kamui.

The location of the nest is marked with a ball of black evil spirit.

At this time, several demonic birds with horned owl-like postures emerged from this dark evil aura, spread their wings, and slowly moved towards the south of Mutsu Province.

"The evil god's army split into six groups and began migrating south. Along the way, these half-human, half-owl monsters continued to attack the surrounding areas and abduct people."

Sane Ryusei continued, "Their numbers are increasing. At the same time, several prominent exorcist families in Sotohama, Yamabe, Inaza, Hiraga, and Kazuno have either been wiped out or suffered severe blows, plunging them into chaos..."

There are still some smaller local exorcist families in Hokuriku. Compared with the behemoth Kurohimeyama family, there is indeed a world of difference in power between the two sides, but they are also very important support forces in the local area.

However, with the invasion of the foreign god Kotankoro Kamui to the south, these weak exorcist families were the first to be hit and fell into a state of collapse.

"Actually."

Master Song Mushi of the Guiyanyuan Institute spoke calmly, "With the incredible speed of the Fierce Owl Demon God's army, it wouldn't be difficult for them to pass through Kunabe County and directly attack Qinglu City, where our Kurohime Mountain is located... However, this demon army hasn't taken any active action."

The Jiuyanyuan, under the jurisdiction of Songchong, is a group of sorcerers who are proficient in "clairvoyance" and "clairvoyance".

The practitioners of the Jiuyanyuan are proficient in "eye techniques". They use the power of psychic vision to see through the enemy's whereabouts and see through the opponent's flaws. In addition, they also use the power of psychic vision to observe the stars, perform divination and prediction.

"I've recently tried to interpret the astrology and discovered a very ominous omen, but I can't decipher the underlying mystery. In short... there must be something else hidden in Kotankoro Kamui's southward journey—"

Song Chong tried to interpret the stars many times, but he was never able to gain absolute insights from them. There were too many unknowns and possibilities hidden in the stars. He was unable to make a correct interpretation, but his heart was filled with foreboding and he had a strong sense of uneasiness about the future.

"All right."

Yuki interrupted Songchong, she didn't intend to let Songchong continue.

She was well aware that prophecies, divination and astrological interpretations were not entirely accurate, as the future was often uncertain.

The "predictions" drawn by pine worms through astrological interpretations are often inaccurate, more akin to conclusions drawn from predictions, inferences, and observations. Furthermore, because they incorporate their own subjective assumptions, they can be far from the truth.

"Let's not talk about that for now... Let me tell you about Xiao Hagi, my lovely daughter."

Miyuki turned his gaze to the silver-haired girl sitting on the right.

"Why didn't the heads of the Sagu and Shuye families come with you? Today is a clan meeting, why didn't they arrive at the scene?"

"Please don't be angry, mother."

Xiao Hagi shook her dark pearl-like eyes and smiled slightly.

"The heads of the two branch families, Saku and Kuchiha, are heading to the Freezing Plains to set up the first line of defense outside the city. The abilities of these two masters are perfectly suited for this arrangement."

——This child.

It's really leak-proof.

Even if the other person is the extremely annoying eldest daughter.

But Miyuki also admires Kohagi very much.

She had been secretly suppressing the faction her eldest daughter belonged to during this period, but unfortunately, she did not reveal any flaws.

Yu Xing hadn't figured out what his daughter was up to, and for a moment, he couldn't let her act. Of course, she still had many sinister plots up her sleeve—but who knew that just then, news of Kotankoro Kamui's southward advance would disrupt her plans? "How suspicious! Could this child have already calculated all this? Or perhaps, she was able to learn about this information in advance?"

Yuki felt that this was all too coincidental. She glanced at her eldest daughter again, and the silver-haired girl's expression was filled with an unfathomable aura.

To be honest, Yukichi felt that he was increasingly unable to understand his daughter.

"I can only wait until that boy is brought here and then I can beat her up right in front of her."

She didn't believe that by that time, Xiao Hagi would still be able to maintain her current indifferent attitude.

"is it?"

Yukichi chuckled slowly.

"However, the Nikugi and Tsumada families didn't attend this meeting either, which is a bit strange..."

Her eyes were fixed on the other two heads of the Liufen family, one of whom was a short old man, and the other was a somewhat nervous young girl.

"Sorry, Patriarch."

The one-eyed old man in kimono smiled bitterly: "I don't know about this."

The one-eyed old man is the patriarch of the "Jinyun" clan, one of the six branches.

"I-I don't know either."

The timid girl shrank her neck in fear.

Her name is Yuzi, and she is only fourteen years old. She is the head of the Inusaka family, one of the "Six Branch Families", and the youngest of the six family heads.

"Isn't today a little strange?"

Yukichi pulled a cold smile from his thin lips.

"Why... are there so few people participating in this meeting?!"

She seemed to have thought of something, narrowed her eyes and asked, "What on earth are you hiding from me, the head of the family?"

In an instant, blood-red eyes looked at everyone present.

There was no particular pressure, but a twisted force expanded, and a kind of fear that almost drove people crazy emerged uncontrollably from the bottom of their hearts.

"So, who spoke first?"

Kurohimeyama Miyuki, with red eyes, laughed like a raging fire.

"Who betrayed me?"

"Mother."

Xiao Hagi laughed.

Her voice broke the strange distortion emanating from Yuki.

This force caused the outline of her body to sway in the flaming air.

"I also want to know when you betrayed your clan?!"

boom!
The two super-class exorcists instantly released a powerful aura wavelength that instilled fear and terror in everyone who saw it.

The forces of both sides confronted each other in a narrow space.

Instantly, a terrifying ripple filled the air. Two streams of murderous aura collided at high speed like a violent storm. Such a powerful force was beyond the ability of anyone present to calm them, forcing them to inevitably drag everyone around them into the conflict.

In the hall that served as a meeting room, no one could open their mouths.

The numerous demon exorcists of the Kurohimeyama clan were stunned and dared not move.

At the same time, under the influence of two powerful spiritual powers, the expanding airflow made bursts of whistling sounds.

The head of the Inusaka family, the girl named Yuzi, showed a panic expression, and her bangs were blown messy by the wind.

The one-eyed old man, the head of the Jinyun family, also felt the suffocating pressure.

The spiritual power of the super-class exorcists is too strong. The head of the family, Miyuki, and her daughter, Kohagi, can be described as two human-shaped moving disasters. Once these two ghost girls from the Kurohimeyama family fight, everyone present will be involved in their horrific struggle, and may even become cannon fodder.

“What, what should we do… If the Patriarch really decides to take action, who on earth can stop these two?!”

Just as the head of the Jinyun clan was feeling panicked, a cold voice sounded.

"That's enough... A fight between mother and daughter is a violation of moral principles. Yu Xing, stop it for me!"
