However, when asked about the deity's request, Zhao Taohua responded with a firm and resonant voice.

"Ha, you earned your own private fish farm? And you want to run away from home?"

"You're getting bolder and bolder!"

The God of Fate rolled up his sleeves, intending to uphold the family rules.

But just then, Huang's soft cough rang in my ears.

This reminder brought the spirit of fate to a sudden realization.

She glanced at the couple standing in front of the wind chime wall and the demon worshippers on the edge of the shrine, then looked at herself, sleeves rolled up, ready to fight the kitten three hundred times.

This is hardly a god.

She's just like an unreasonable middle-aged woman from the streets!

In an instant, Enmusubi's cheeks flushed red, and she quickly lowered her rolled-up sleeves.

After glaring fiercely at the peach blossom that was almost disappearing at the edge of the shrine, she composed herself and walked towards her followers. In her hand, she still clutched a red rope that emitted a faint divine light. It was clearly a red rope of fate that had been blessed by her divine power, and it was also a divine token belonging exclusively to the Goddess of Fate.

Even after Ara and Izumi received the red rope that symbolized their union, hung the wind chime with their names written on it on the shelf, and prepared to leave, Kidomaru remained standing at the edge of the shrine.

During this time, he completely embodied the role of an observer, standing alone in a corner, seemingly out of place with the people, objects, and atmosphere of the entire shrine.

He was not unmoved, but his steps toward taking action were always bound by an invisible will.

After all, that unscrupulous Onmyoji was right. How could someone covered in blood be worthy of approaching this warm and peaceful shrine?

The light and shadow beneath the shrine were beyond the reach of a blood-stained demon like him.

"Then we'll take our leave."

"Please wait a moment, Lord of Fate, there's no need to see me off any further."

After reaching the edge of the shrine, Ara turned around and said.

Compared to when they arrived, both Izumi and Kazuki now have a thin red string on their wrists. This knotted rope not only binds their fates even closer but also adds a new label to them:

[A believer connected to God.]

In this way, even without maintaining the secret technique "Mirror Still Water," he could walk freely on this land without being discovered by the gods of Takamagahara.

"Where are you planning to go next? Is it far?"

The God of Fate stopped as instructed, but still couldn't help asking a question.

Of course, she soon realized that her question was somewhat presumptuous.

After all, although the otherworldly Onmyoji in front of him had become his follower for some reason, in essence, the other party was a dangerous person wanted by the entire Takamagahara!

It would be unreasonable to ask rashly on one's own.

"Oh, sorry, you don't have to say it, I don't really care."

She apologized hastily, without putting on any airs of a deity.

[Don't lose your sense of boundaries just because someone is being friendly for a moment, Xiaoyuan!]

At the same time, he was also silently reminding himself.

"It doesn't matter,"

"We're going to Seven Horns Mountain in the east,"

"According to my shikigami, the forest over there is being corrupted by an unknown filthy power. Many weaker yokai have fallen into a coma or are in even worse condition due to the filthy energy."

Huang responded without any attempt to hide anything.

Since they have already chosen to use the other party's token to conceal their whereabouts, there is no need to suspect that the other party will leak secrets to the other gods.

"Seven-Cornered Mountain? Something seems off there lately, and forests are an important part of life."

"But that should be the territory of the Wind God. With Mai Nu there, he will be unable to resist the erosion of the filth."

Upon hearing the reason, the God of Fate also became nervous.

"Have you found a solution? If needed, let this deity come along to help!"

At the same time, she also generously offered her services.

That sudden surge of righteous indignation truly gave him the air of a powerful guardian.

"don’t worry,"

"The Deer Man, a descendant of the Deer Man clan, has led his companions from Seven Horns Mountain into the depths of the forest to find the Heart of the Forest, which can revive the forest. It is believed that once the corruption of the filth is resolved, it will only be a matter of time."

"Besides, I still have Kidomaru. What filth could be more ferocious than a demon?"

"Perhaps, I can still come back before your first festival begins."

Huang pulled the silent Asura demon into the conversation.

This sudden action not only startled Enmusubi, but also caused Kidomaru himself to show a change in expression, though he ultimately did not react.

"That's true,"

"With Kidomaru around, there shouldn't be any problems."

"My festivals and such are not important. As long as you can come back safely, that's all that matters. I will be here praying for you."

"........"

As the believers left,

The rarely visited shrine gradually quieted down, and as the group of three was about to disappear from sight, the spirit of Enmusubi suddenly seemed to remember something, abruptly raising her hands to her mouth and shouting:

"Hey, Onmyoji from another world,"

"Remember, never get into a battle that's too intense. If you break the red thread that I created with divine power, you'll still be sensed by Takamagahara!"

Meanwhile, in her field of vision, the Onmyoji, who had already reached the edge of the area, slowly stopped and pointed to the demon beside him, seemingly silently reassuring her that she still had henchmen. Then, the three of them set off again and completely disappeared from her sight.

And on the silent hillside, only the sound of wishing wind chimes remains.

Among them, one wind chime, engraved with the pattern of the red spider lily, already had a home, inscribed with the names Uchiha Ara and Uchiha Izumi. Moreover, unlike the other wind chimes, it had a red tassel tied to its hem.

Chapter 767 Work for me, you Asura Demon.

"Huh? You want me to work for you for 999 days for just one piece of clothing?"

"Onmyoji from another world, do you think I'm like a pure-blooded yokai, completely oblivious to the passage of time?"

Kidomaru's demonic eyes narrowed, and the chains wrapped around his wrists creaked slightly, emanating an exceptionally dangerous aura!

He was initially filled with gratitude, and asked himself what price he would have to pay to repay the kindness he owed at the Enmusubi Shrine.

But to my surprise, this bastard made an outrageous demand, asking me to spend nearly three years making up for the debt.

Three years!

If he really agrees, how much fun will he miss out on over the next three years?!

"Is it much?"

In response to the former's emotional outburst, Huang merely asked a question in a nonchalant tone.

Kidomaru stared straight at the Onmyoji in front of him without answering. He was adopted by the Kamo family when he was young, and was banished to the Asura Demon Path when he grew up.

Neither of these two phases allowed Ling to truly come into contact with the human monetary system.

And aside from suppressing and craving killing, he had absolutely no desire for things like pursuing money.

"Did you know that many impoverished families might not even earn a single magatama even after a whole day of hard work? The new clothes that Enmusubi bought for herself to hold a festival only cost ten magatama."

"Yes, with your abilities, you might be able to earn a lot of jade in a very short time."

"But besides killing, do you have any other conventional ways to make money?"

“You should understand that she would rather live in a remote and simple shrine than accept dirty offerings from dubious sources.”

The words that reached his ears caused most of the sharpness in Kidomaru's eyes and the dangerous aura he exuded to dissipate.

Yes,

He knew nothing and understood nothing except killing.

"Of course, working 999 days is just a maximum figure I've set for you based on the average resident's income. In other words, even if you do nothing during this period, as long as you stay by my side for this long, it can be considered as repaying all your debts."

Seeing the silent Asura demon, Huang spoke up at the opportune moment.

This explanation immediately brought a glimmer of light to Kidomaru's eyes, who was deeply mired in self-doubt.

It wasn't the feeling of excitement from not having to do anything that made it appealing, but rather the concept of the longest possible time!

Since there is a longest limit, there must also be a shortest period.

As expected, under his intense gaze, the detestable Onmyoji continued speaking:

"There are ways to move the time forward."

"As long as you complete tasks with a high level of difficulty, you can get corresponding rewards. For example, the filth in this incident, if you can eliminate ten monsters that pollute the forest, you can get the value of one jade, which means you can reduce your working hours by one day."

The light in Kidomaru's eyes intensified.

How to get rid of filth?

What's the difference between this and killing evil spirits? Ten heads can be exchanged for a day's time, so achieving all the friendships would only require nine thousand nine hundred and ninety heads.

The day when the debt of gratitude will be repaid is just around the corner!

Hopefully, there will be enough of those filthy creatures!!

"For example, our agreement states that if we can ultimately defeat Asura, I can waive an additional year of your term."

"I don't want your charity, hurry up and leave! I don't want all that filth to be dealt with before I get there."

Kidomaru did not show any particular joy about the "extra exemption".

Even demons and monsters have their own dignity and sense of contract.

Of course, he could easily refuse to acknowledge this unrestrained debt, but a voice in his heart kept warning him not to disappoint the god who had promised to always watch over him.

"Hey, they're really going all out."

"Oh, right, one more thing."
