After listening to the wills of his companions one by one, Huang spoke softly, and a dark spatial vortex unfolded.

As for Itsukushima, he had no attachment to the land, because Oto had already lost the opportunity to become Kinnara.

As people evacuated in an orderly manner, a black, ball-shaped creature the size of a pet moved to Huang's feet.

That familiar aura... it's none other than the great demon Hakuzosu of Mengshan!

"Thank you for protecting them this time, Xiaobai."

Seeing the Lord of Dream Mountain, who was much more disheveled and dejected than when he arrived, a trace of gratitude flickered in Huang's eyes.

Since all 77 people who came were able to return without a single loss, the other side must have played a part in it.

Especially in the early stages when everyone was fighting their own battles, they must have made many silent sacrifices.

"Little White isn't a puppy, it's a fox, a fox, woof!!"

Upon hearing that familiar voice, upon hearing that almost nightmarish word 'small,' Bai Zangzhu instinctively bristled.

However, when it cleared its mind and recalled the real name the other person had used, the look in its eyes immediately changed.

"Ugh, it's all your fault! My head is full of puppies!!"

Hakuzosu complained, feeling wronged and annoyed.

But he quickly dispelled these emotions and proudly said to the conman Onmyoji beside him:

"Hmph, there's nothing we can do about it."

"After all, I have promised to protect your people and your subordinates."

"Xiao Bai is very trustworthy."

It emphasized the last word, "credit," as if it were a metaphor.

"Yes, I understand, and I will keep my promise."

"Go back and wash up, then go find Ichimokuren and the others for a hot spring bath."

As he spoke, Huang squatted down, reached out, and smoothed the little guy's somewhat messy fur.

Like other pets, Hakuzosu seemed unable to escape such gentle caresses, and soon he couldn't help but squint his eyes, falling into a state of enjoyment.

"Woo, ow."

"Putting everything else aside, the hot springs here are what I find most irresistible."

"If only Lord Seimei could live there too."

"That way, Xiaobai can do it every day..."

However, in his momentary arrogance, Hakuzosu soon crossed someone's red line.

Good grief, you haven't even fulfilled the three promises yet, and you're already thinking about other Onmyoji, huh!

Although Huang still had a faint smile on his lips, his hand, which had been gently stroking the hair, had changed from a caressing motion to a grabbing motion. Before Xiaobai could finish expressing his thoughts, he picked up the little guy by the back of the neck and shook him in front of his eyes.

"You're so dirty, go wash up, puppy."

"what!"

"Little White isn't a puppy! I was just starting to like you a little, you despicable liar..."

However, before Bai Zangzhu could finish his accusations, he was thrown into a dark teleportation vortex by Ara while he was frantically baring his teeth and claws at the bastard Onmyoji in front of him.

Suddenly, the world became quiet.

"Let's go back too."

Then, Huang spoke to the girl beside him, his gentle demeanor completely different from before.

"okay."

Quan said softly, and obediently placed his palm in the former's hand.

"and many more."

"please wait a while."

However, just as the two were about to leave, they suddenly heard a simultaneous call in their ears.

Looking in the direction of the sound, they saw it coming from the survivors of Itsukushima, which was not far away.

And those who speak

It is rhythm and tone.

Chapter 717 Subordinate Lands, Traces Across Timelines

This must be a call that was not discussed beforehand.

So much so that after they spoke in unison, Lü and Yin's eyes unconsciously met.

There was no verbal communication.

A single glance seemed enough for the two sisters to understand each other's meaning.

"Huh? Is there anything else?"

Arakawa stopped as instructed, but remained close to the teleportation vortex, showing no intention of lingering on Itsukushima.

Because there is nothing left in this land that can continue to benefit him, even the so-called side quest, [Good], is about to reach its critical point of completion.

After all, he had no expectations for this branch at all; the representative of "goodness" was Indra, the new king of the Devas lineage.

Summoning the Asura when you need to confront him directly is tantamount to adding another enemy of the level of a hundred demons to your own forces!

Upon hearing this, both Lü and Yin's eyes, locked in a silent exchange, trembled slightly.

Then they all looked back at the Onmyoji who seemed to have descended from the heavens like a divine warrior.

Of course, I also saw the beautiful girl with her fingers intertwined, silently declaring her sovereignty.

After a brief pause, Ritsu, the older sister, spoke first:

"Dear Onmyoji, thank you very much for your help to Itsukushima during this crisis."

"If you would allow it, I would like to follow you as a shikigami and dedicate the rest of my life to helping you in Itsukushima."

She spoke frankly and directly, her words crisp and clear without any hesitation.

At the same time, he bowed slightly towards his benefactor to show his respect.

Law is a dead person.

It is thanks to the special abilities of the Itsukushima altar and the special secret techniques of the tuner that it exists in its current 'living dead' state.

It's not surprising that something that can survive despite losing its life is classified as a monster.

[Shikigami.]

Judging from the aura of the law, it is roughly at the level of a domain-level youkai, in addition to mastering the unique law music of Itsukushima.

It is indeed capable of maintaining its position as a domain-level monster.

Although they are far inferior to Kinara, a mythical being who can form a contract with a side quest leader, they are still a formidable fighting force.

Furthermore, Huang also detected another emotion in the other person's eyes besides gratitude:

Pray for further protection.

It wasn't to protect herself, who was already dead, but to protect the survivors on this land and the people behind her!

After all, once a connection is established with the shikigami, if Itsukushima, which is in dire need of rebuilding, encounters any special crisis in the future, its onmyoji master will certainly not stand idly by.

"can."

Huang agreed without much deliberation.

As the March deadline drew ever closer, he indeed needed more power, ideally reaching the number of eighty-eight demons in the night.

Only then can it be considered to truly possess the ability to fight that God of Destruction.

"Thank you."

After being granted permission, Yu bowed even more deeply, and the large white wolf beside him also bowed respectfully to its proud wolf form.

Whether it was due to the master's submission or fear of the powerful pressure emanating from the other party.

At the same time, a pipa-shaped mark gradually disappeared on the back of Huang's hand.

After responding to the wolf-riding woman's request, he then looked at Yin, who was also hesitant to speak, his silent gaze naturally asking why she had called him.

Seeing this, the girl's eyes flickered slightly. She then straightened her body slightly and earnestly met the gaze of the deity in her heart, saying:

"I wish to continue my cultivation under your guidance, Your Majesty."

I want to become stronger!

The feeling of powerlessness when praying to God is something I really don't want to experience again.

Following the strong, tempering herself through experience, and thus gaining the ability to protect the land behind her—that is her duty as a lawyer on Itsukushima Island!

Sensing the determination in the girl's eyes, Huang couldn't help but frown slightly.

He had no interest in humans who couldn't form shikigami contracts, and one trainer in the yokai party was enough.

Unless, of course, the other party can stay in the Hidden Demon Village forever and stand together with all the other members of the Hidden Demon Village.

Otherwise, there really isn't much benefit.

"I don't understand music, and I have nothing to teach you."

A brief statement is a form of refusal.

Hearing this response, the girl's face showed a hint of sadness, but she did not give up.

"Please, I want to become stronger."

Yin held the pipa tightly, her slender fingers turning slightly red from the force she exerted.

She was not good with words, so she could only use this kind of stubborn persistence to get the other party's consent.

But Huang's face remained unmoved.

It should be noted that he was already in a precarious situation, and if he could not return in two months, the Demon Hidden Village would inevitably undergo a major upheaval.
