"I will protect you from the Yamata no Orochi, but you must also lend me a hand at crucial moments."
"The River of Three Crossings, a place where Yin and Yang meet,"
“This is the perfect place for Him to come out.”
Sensing the worry in the other shore flower's voice, Huang spoke directly.
This contract, like the ones he made with Yamakaze, Ōtakemaru, and others, doesn't have any particularly coercive effect; it's more of a cooperative relationship of mutual support and mutual assistance.
A mythical monster's assistance to him was considerable.
In particular, the wrath of the Lord of the Underworld did not extinguish it.
Instead, this only made her stronger after she was resurrected from the Sanzu River, her power now approaching that of a hundred demons!
If Enma is not here, then perhaps she will eventually become the master of this land!
"Contract?"
The other shore flower subconsciously repeated the other party's invitation in a low voice, a serious look of thought appearing on her delicate face.
She truly hadn't expected that the Onmyoji before her, though young, possessed not only considerable strength but also an extremely rich experience.
They even knew the origins of these venomous snakes and the fact that the evil god wanted to escape through the gap in the Yin-Yang Land.
Was this something he deduced and figured out himself, or was it something that the old woman Enma told him?
The red spider lily, lost in thought, suddenly felt a sharp pain in its head.
So she simply put those deep thoughts aside for the time being.
"No human has ever dared to make such a pact with me."
"Well, let's talk about that after you get rid of those poisonous snakes for me first."
"If you can't even accomplish this small thing, it's hard for me to believe your promise."
Stranded, postponed
Their current plan is to wait for the right opportunity to act based on the strength demonstrated by the other party.
"Well, you'd better make a decision quickly."
"I will get rid of those snake infestations soon, and they won't come back for a long time to come."
Huang nodded slightly.
For such a powerful demon with a strong will and self-planning, Ara clearly understands that it cannot be rushed.
Otherwise, the Lord of the Underworld would not have allowed the other party to grow freely on his land for thousands of years, and even opened up such a dazzling path of fire.
Upon hearing this, the other shore flower did not speak, but simply pushed the barrier she had created towards the other party.
She didn't want her thoughts to be forced into hasty decisions due to time constraints.
Ara did not press further and directly stepped into the magic circle constructed by the other party. Suzuka Gozen and Ōtakemaru, who were on the side, exchanged a glance and then followed suit.
Although the former does not have any requirements,
After meeting, they simply nodded to each other, clearly to avoid getting involved in the matter of the spider lily again.
But the yokai of Suzuka Mountain are not the kind of people who get caught up in such trivial matters.
A drop of kindness deserves a spring of gratitude in return.
As all the visitors left, only the woman remained in this dazzling sea of flowers.
She stared blankly at the teleportation barrier that was gradually disappearing from her sight, her gaze somewhat unfocused.
The world is becoming increasingly turbulent.
It seems that becoming stronger or living in seclusion will not completely prevent her from avoiding all problems.
"To form an alliance?"
A moment later, soft murmurs escaped its lips.
The lotus steps that paused in the middle of the sea of flowers also bloomed towards the ever-flowing Sanzu River at this moment.
Upon reaching the water's edge, the spider lily immediately crouched down.
She didn't care that her bright red dress was soaked by the rushing water, nor did she care about the swaying arms of the seaweed underwater.
She extended her jade-like fingers, and after touching the surface of the water, she gently stirred it.
The once clear water surface gradually changed its appearance, unfolding a series of unique images resembling silhouettes.
She was a desperate young girl.
They uttered savage words of slaughter in a blood-soaked environment;
He was a naive, even immature, human boy.
They were humbly, devoutly, and desperately praying for something;
At last,
A pure and aloof girl, surrounded by snow, descended gracefully despite the world's rejection.
The scene ends abruptly here.
The power of just a little bit of the Sanzu River tea was ultimately not enough for her to see all of that person's past.
"Did you already have such a strong obsession back then?"
"Unfortunately, I didn't sense it at that time."
A sound of regret escaped the woman's lips.
"No wonder he could resist my temptation."
"They are indeed women who are only slightly less beautiful than me."
.........
.........
When the view became clear again, Huang was in a completely different space.
The vibrant and dazzling path of fire is gone, and the whole world is shrouded in darkness.
Most importantly, the power of Yin and Yang seems to have been stripped away here, making conventional techniques largely unusable.
Fortunately, Ara is not a regular Onmyoji who relies on Onmyo magic to fight, but a ninja who is skilled in martial arts.
With a crisp clang, the demon sword, Xianminglian, was slowly drawn from its sheath.
In this short but significant period of time, this sharp and heavy battle blade has become his most cherished treasure!
Furthermore, the chakra energy stored within his body was functioning normally, proving that conventional ninjutsu could be used and was generally capable of handling any situation that arose.
'Hiss,'
Almost the instant it drew its sword, the distinctive hissing sound of a snake could be heard.
Following the sound, they saw clusters of colorful venomous snakes curled up in a dark corner!
However, before Huang could fulfill his obligations, a battle blade carrying surging lightning ripped through the dark world.
It's a divine artifact, the Yasakani no Magatama!
The area where it fell to the ground was completely devoid of any trace of the venomous snake, not even a speck of dust remained.
Such arrogant behavior immediately caused Ara's lips to twitch slightly. He knew that Ootengu had also rushed to this special barrier for his sake.
However, it had already subtly distanced itself from this during that period.
After all, if he insists on coming, then there is no doubt that the master of Suzuka Mountain, who dotes on his younger brother, will also follow him here.
He didn't want to incur this favor before even having formally contacted the other party.
"You must be the Onmyoji that Ōtakemaru mentioned?"
"My ignorant younger brother has caused you and your friends trouble."
"I am so sorry."
Sure enough, walking slowly down from the dark sky was the dashing lord of Suzuka Mountain, Suzuka Gozen!
Chapter 724 The resolute skeleton ignites the flower of life.
She was like a Valkyrie descended from the heavens.
Holding a light arrow and accompanied by a divine bow, his dragon-like tail gently patted the space, and his long red and black hair exuded a powerful and domineering visual impact.
In fact, Suzuka Gozen also embodied the word "assertive".
She casually stepped down from the sky and immediately raised her hand and pressed it on Ōtakemaru's head, forcing him to bow his head to the Onmyoji in front of him.
Such a commanding presence from the Suzuka Mountain boss instantly silenced the words Ara had been holding back.
You must know, the young master of Suzuka Mountain is none other than the young master of the mountain!
He was a terrifyingly powerful figure who nearly led the Sea Kingdom to drag the entire Heian-kyo into a desperate situation!
Now he's like a child, completely suppressed by this dashing and heroic figure.
What kind of astonishing art style is this?
During this time, Ōtakemaru naturally made attempts to break free from the former's restraints.
After all, he has grown up and is capable of standing on his own. Yet, he is being suppressed by his older sister in front of others, which makes him feel somewhat embarrassed and ashamed.
But in the end, he resigned himself to his fate, bowing his head and apologizing.
"While I cannot forgive Ōtakemaru on behalf of all the yokai who perished in that battle, I also cannot attribute the root of all the problems to him alone."
"The real culprit behind this tragedy is the one who needs to be fully accounted for."
Ara looked earnestly into the apologetic eyes of the Lord of Suzuka Mountain.
"Moreover, saving Suzuka Mountain was a choice made by Kusa herself, and as her Onmyoji, I respect her."
he added.
Ultimately, the only thing that could barely represent forgiveness was the firefly that infused its own demonic power into Suzuka Mountain.
