After rebirth, they all want to monopolize me

Chapter 174 Leave the island nation, never come back (4000 words)
"Bang bang bang!"

Jiang Li was happily heading to Nagoya, listening to a little tune and singing along.

Unexpectedly, gunshots suddenly rang out from behind.

Looking in the rearview mirror, Jiang Li saw several cars chasing after them.

Jiang Li's first thought was that they couldn't possibly be from the Hojo family. After all, how could someone from the Hojo family shoot their own young lady? Did they have a death wish?
Even if they were to take Hojo Sana back, they would do so completely unharmed, without damaging a single hair on her head, let alone firing a gun.

"Could it be that they're after me again?" Jiang Li suspected that it was those demons playing tricks again.

Jiang Li stepped on the gas, trying to shake off the other party.

But who knew they would also step on the gas, and the distance between them didn't increase at all.

"Good heavens." Jiang Li was stunned for a moment.

He was driving a sports car.

Why can their four-door sedans go so fast?

You guys put nitrogen in the back of the car, didn't you?
Just as Jiang Li was thinking about how to get rid of these bastards, Hojo Sana opened the box in front of her.

Jiang Li caught a glimpse of a dark blue bow and arrow out of the corner of her eye.

This bow and arrow is engraved with strange flow marks, like inscriptions or a kind of self-dyed tassel. After looking at it for a while, I think it's quite beautiful.

Hojo Sana unbuckled her seatbelt, placed her left foot on the sports car seat, and then pulled back the bowstring.

"What's this."

Jiang Li looked at Hojo Sana and was startled.

As Hojo Sana drew her bow, streaks of lightning flowed around her.

Spiritual energy condensed onto the bow and arrow, eventually forming a fletching.

This arrow, as if formed from lightning, was as beautiful as a blue enchantress, yet it also exuded a deadly danger.

"Zheng!"

With the sound of the bowstring being pulled taut and then released, the wind whipped wildly through the girl's hair, her resolute gaze resembling that of a Valkyrie.

The blue arrows shot backward like lightning, illuminating the entire road.

"boom!"

A loud bang came from behind the sports car.

Through the rearview mirror, Jiang Li clearly saw a car suddenly explode! Sparks flew out in the darkness!

"hiss"

Jiang Li gasped.

I never imagined that this bow and arrow would be so terrifying.

This power feels like it's no less than an RPG shot.

"Zheng! Zheng! Zheng!"

Hojo Sana drew her bow again and again.

Each arrow struck a vehicle squarely, followed by a violent explosion.

Moreover, Hojo Sana never missed a shot.

In less than a minute, all the cars that had been chasing them were turned into bonfires, and all those who had been pursuing them perished in the flames.

Hojo Sana breathed a sigh of relief, sat back in her car seat, and fastened her seatbelt.

Although Hojo Sana only drew her arrows a few times.

However, Hojo Sana was covered in sweat, her hair was sticking to her forehead, and her face was even a little pale.

This shows that the bow and arrow that Hojo Sana just drew took a huge toll on her.

Jiang Li didn't ask what kind of bow and arrow it was; that was their own business.

Jiang Li just felt like she suddenly had a greater sense of security.
If it were me, I probably wouldn't be able to withstand that direct arrow.

"I'm a little tired and want to take a nap," Hojo Sana said to Jiang Li.

"Okay, you sleep well. I'll wake you up if I need anything." Jiang Li nodded.

"Ok."

A short while later, Hojo Sana fell asleep leaning back in her chair.

Jiang Li played a soothing song via Bluetooth on her phone.

"Even the smiles of Xiu Po's idols aren't as sweet as yours."

An hour later, Hojo Sana slowly opened her eyes and twisted her slightly sore neck.

"What song is this?" Hojo Sana turned her head and asked Jiang Li curiously.

“Oh, this song was sung by an oil field in our Xia country,” Jiang Li explained casually. “It’s quite popular on our internet, but I don’t recommend you search for it. I’m afraid you won’t be able to sleep at night after watching the video.”

"."

Hojo Sana didn't know how Yuda could sing, or what kind of video it was that kept her up at night, but she didn't care.

This song isn't exactly great, but it's not bad either; it's quite cheerful.

"Your bow and arrow," Jiang Li said, organizing her thoughts before speaking. "While it's very powerful, it also consumes a lot of energy. If you don't have to use it, then don't use it for now. It's best to keep it as a trump card. If there are any minor problems, I can handle them."

“Mmm.” Hojo Sana nodded, agreeing with Jiang Li’s opinion.

She truly hadn't expected that after only drawing five arrows, her physical strength and spiritual energy would be completely drained.

Hojo Sana felt that to truly master this bow and arrow, one's skill level would need to improve by at least several levels.

However, the power of this Thunder Bow was indeed beyond her imagination, and Hojo Sana felt that it could be used as a means of achieving a surprise victory.

After driving for about two and a half hours, Jiang Li found a gas station, where she filled up her car, took a break, and ate something.

"Have something to eat." Jiang Li brought out a bowl of instant noodles from the convenience store in the gas station and handed it to Hojo Sana.

Hojo Sana glanced at the instant noodles in Jiang Li's hand, then at Jiang Li himself, and slowly said, "I don't eat this."

"Miss, the boxed meals inside are all sold out, only instant noodles are left. Please make do with these and don't be too picky."

Jiang Li thought that Hojo Sana disliked instant noodles, a common food, but now that the two of them were fleeing, they had no right to dislike them; they were just grateful to have enough to eat.

“I’m not disgusted.” Hojo Sana shook her head. “My etiquette teacher told me I can’t eat this kind of thing, otherwise I’ll get fat and it will be uncontrollable.”

"So you've never eaten instant noodles before?" Jiang Li asked curiously.

Hojo Sana nodded.

"."

Jiang Li really couldn't believe it.

In this world, apart from primitive tribes, is there anyone who has ever eaten instant noodles?

"Give it a try. It won't hurt to eat it once. Besides, instant noodles aren't exactly junk food; they're just not very nutritious."

In my opinion, a life without eating instant noodles is incomplete. Besides, since you've already run away from home, you should temporarily put aside your family's rules and not have so many restrictions. Anyway, your teacher can't see this.

Besides.

Jiang Li sized up Hojo Sana.

"You're not fat."

If one were to insist that Hojo Sana is fat, it would be her chest and buttocks. Apart from that, she has long, straight legs, a slender waist, and a figure that can be described as perfect.

Jiang Li sat down next to Hojo Sana, placed the bowl of instant noodles on her lap, then opened another box of instant noodles and started eating by himself.

Seeing Jiang Li eating so happily, and smelling the aroma of the instant noodles, Hojo Sana swallowed hard.

Hojo Sana lowered her head again, looking at the instant noodles on her lap, and couldn't help but recall what Chen Xueman had once said to her: "You always bind yourself with so many rules, don't you get tired of your life?"

"Oh well, since I've already run away from home, what's wrong with doing some things I've never done before?"

Once you break your own rules the first time, you'll do it again.

When Hojo Sana made up her mind to run away from home, the family rules were no longer so unbreakable in her heart.

Hojo Sana tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, picked up her instant noodles, and took a small bite.

The moment the instant noodles touched her tongue, Hojo Sana's eyes lit up.

This novel flavor was like opening the door to a new world for Hojo Sana.

Although this isn't the best thing I've ever eaten.

But it brought me a completely different experience.

This bowl of noodles looks so different, and it doesn't use any fancy ingredients, but the taste is really good.

No wonder I often saw other people eating this kind of food when I was in school.

"How is it? Not bad, right?" Jiang Li smiled as he looked at Hojo Sana's expression.

"Mmm." Hojo Sana nodded, her cheeks slightly flushed as she ate her instant noodles.

Hojo Sana began to understand why her teacher forbade her from eating this kind of food.

Once you've had it the first time, it's easy to eat it a second or third time, and this instant noodle is indeed quite oily.

"So, there are some things you have to try. There's no need to make life so hard."

Jiang Li took a bite of the sausage.

"When I first graduated, I couldn't find a job and I was too embarrassed to ask my family for money. I ate instant noodles for a month straight and I was about to collapse. I felt like throwing up whenever I saw instant noodles."

"You won't be able to find a job?" Hojo Sana looked at Jiang Li curiously.

Jiang Li knew what Hojo Sana was thinking: "I know what you mean. You're thinking that a cultivator at the sixth level of Qi Refining can't find a job."

But I entered the Dragon Guardian Division and reached the sixth level of Qi Refining, all after the spiritual energy revival.

Before the spiritual energy revival, I was no different from any other college graduate who was immediately unemployed.

Actually, the revival of spiritual energy really changed my destiny.

In the future, it will also change the fate of many people.

"So do you think the resurgence of spiritual energy is a good thing or a bad thing?" Hojo Sana asked.

"Who knows? If it weren't for the revival of spiritual energy, I'd still be working at a game company fixing bugs right now."

But this kind of precarious life is indeed difficult to endure.

Jiang Li shrugged and lowered her head to continue eating her noodles.

Hojo Sana didn't ask any further questions.

Twenty minutes later, Jiang Li and Hojo Sana threw the instant noodle box into the trash can, and the two got into the car and continued driving to Nagoya.

The journey was relatively smooth.

However, what surprised Jiang Li was...

It had been more than half the night since Hojo Sana left home, so the head of the Hojo family should have noticed by now.

Hojo Sana's phone was also on.

But Hojo Sana's phone never rang.

This is indeed somewhat unusual.

Hojo Sana also began to worry, wondering if something had happened to her grandfather.

Just as Hojo Sana frowned while holding her phone, the theme song of "Unnatural" started playing.

Hojo Sana looked at the caller ID, took a deep breath, and answered the phone: "Hello, Grandpa."

"Sana." The head of the Hojo family sighed on the other end of the phone, "Leave the island nation, and don't come back!"

"Grandpa?" Hojo Sana wondered if she had misheard. "Grandpa, what did you say?"

"I've already arranged a plane at Nagoya Airport, and your passport is on board. You're leaving tonight! Do you hear me!"

"Why, Grandpa?"

"Hello, Grandpa, Grandpa?"

Hojo Sana put down her phone, her face pale, her eyes darting around as she looked at Jiang Li.

"What's wrong? What happened?" Jiang Li was startled by Hojo Sana's gaze.

“I-I don’t know,” Hojo Sana said helplessly and nervously, and Jiang Li could even feel her voice trembling. “Grandpa said that he has prepared a private plane for me at Nagoya Airport. My passport is on it. He wants me to leave the island country and go to Xia Country. I shouldn’t come back.”

Jiang Li: “.”

Meanwhile, at the Kyoto Cherry Blossom Office.

Hojo Mune, the head of the Hojo family, entered the main building of the Sakurabi Police Headquarters.

"Mr. Hojo, please come with me." A woman in the uniform of the Sakurabi Police Department led Hojo Mune upstairs.

"The Director and all the gentlemen are waiting for you inside," the woman said, stopping at the door and placing her hands on her chest.

"Ah."

Hojo Mune nodded and went inside.

The conference room door was closed.

All eyes were on Hojo Mune.

"What happened? Such a big fuss, and they even called an old man like me here."

Hojo Mune smiled, found an empty seat and sat down. Even though he knew what had happened, his expression remained calm.

“Mr. Hojo, thank you very much for taking the time out of your busy schedule to come.” The head of the Sakurabi Police Station, standing at the front, smiled and said to Hojo Mune. “This matter is of great importance, so I will not beat around the bush.”

The head of the Sakura Sun Agency opened a PowerPoint presentation. The first slide featured an ink drawing of an eight-headed serpent.

"As you all probably know, something has happened recently. A treasure of our island nation has fallen into the hands of demons. That treasure is called Amaterasu-kyō."

According to the deductions of all the sorcerers in our Sakura Sun Bureau.

This Amaterasu Mirror was created specifically to revive Yamata no Orochi.

As for the specific method of resurrection, we are still unclear, but what is certain is that to resurrect Orochi, we need to use Amaterasu to find Amaterasu, then use Amaterasu as a sacrifice, and finally resurrect Orochi.

According to the intelligence we have received.

A woman with the Amaterasu destiny is...

Sakura Nichi pressed the remote control, the PPT flipped, and a photo of a beautiful girl appeared on the big screen.

The head of the Sakuragi Police Station glanced at Hojo Mune: "She is the eldest daughter of the Hojo family—Hojo Sana."

"After discussion and deliberation," Director Sakurabi said firmly, "we have made some progress, but for the future of our island nation, we have decided to put Miss Hojo into eternal slumber to prevent the resurrection of Orochi."
