As the distance closed, the indignant cries of condemnation became clearer.

"You actually let the monster go without permission! Do you know what the consequences will be?"

"From this day forward, the gods no longer need the service of a defiled person like you!"

"You have already committed suicide by defiling the shrine. Choose a place for yourself."

"........."

Several adult men dressed in black hunting robes were seen harshly berating the woman kneeling on the stone steps.

The woman dressed in white shrine maiden robes did not argue or refute these harsh shouts; she simply humbly pressed her head against the stone steps.

Even when she heard about the consequences of letting the little fox go without permission, she only humbly replied "yes," as if she had already realized the consequences of her actions.

"Hmph, monsters are indeed evil spirits and calamities, they even bewitched the priestess who serves the gods to the point of remaining unchanged until death."

"The Minamoto clan's decision to subdue Mount Oe and exterminate the demons was indeed the most correct choice!"

Upon seeing the woman's response, the Onmyoji once again reprimanded her sternly.

Let's end this here.

With a clang, one of the Onmyoji casually tossed a metal dagger in front of the woman.

He did not beg for mercy.

As he knelt and rose, picking up the dagger that had fallen before him, his last words to the surrounding priests and Onmyoji were:

'Please bury me under the cherry blossom tree.'

That's where she met the three-tailed fox. If the child remembers her in the future, she'll wait there.

The scene before her made the little fox unable to contain her frustration and sorrow any longer. She struggled to break free from Ara's embrace and stumbled towards the shrine maiden she could see.

She should have known.

She should understand!

When the other person taught her the Prayer Dance, and when the other person made her the same shrine maiden outfit, she should have clearly understood that her older sister did not resist her identity as a youkai!

The little fox casually tore off the talisman with the word "Hidden" written on it, and its entire figure appeared on the long, secluded mountain path, accompanied by hurried footsteps.

"Sister, my dear sister."

"Don't leave me."

She shouted desperately at her sister, the priestess who was about to carry out the judgment.

This sudden scene immediately caught the attention of everyone present, including the priestess who had already pointed the dagger at her chest.

Looking back, what flashed in Yu Zhi's eyes was not joy, but deep astonishment and indignation.

"do not come,"

"go!"

"go!"

"Get out of here, you monster!!"

She hissed impatiently at the little fox that ran toward her, using even colder and harsher words.

It may be useless.

The three-tailed fox had already made up her mind about something, and did not abandon the other party or turn away because of those harsh names.

She even silently repeated the words of that Onmyoji in her mind.

My sister had no choice but to drive me away.

My sister said that to protect me.

My sister must be suffering even more than I am now.

Therefore, I will never leave my sister.

【Thank you,】

[The Onmyoji who brought me here, no, Lord Ara.]

If I have the chance, I'd like to become friends with Komatsumaru again.

As the little guy rushed towards her without any attempt to dissuade her, the woman's scolding gradually faded away. From his reckless behavior and his bewitching red eyes, she clearly understood the little fool's determination.

'Bang.'

The dagger he was holding fell to the ground.

In these final moments, she opened her arms, a faint smile of helplessness and heartache on her face, to greet the little one who was rushing toward her.

"Ah,"

"No wonder she was able to bewitch the priestess who served the gods into this state; she's quite capable."

"but,"

"Since you've ungratefully come back, let's all die together."

"You blasphemers!"

A middle-aged Onmyoji, standing proudly on the stone steps, took out a talisman with a look of mockery and disdain, and casually threw it at the approaching monster girl.

Suddenly, the roar of a ferocious tiger echoed through the mountains and forests!

No, it's not just the sound!

A large white tiger really did pounce fiercely on the little fox!

However, the three-tailed fox was oblivious to the impending danger, her eyes fixed solely on the priestess.

"Humph,"

"Die!"

"A mere monster."

Looking at the foolish, clueless three-tailed fox, none of the priests or Onmyoji on the stone steps showed any sympathy. The one who enslaved the paper tiger even had a sinister smirk on his lips.

'boom. ’

But just then, a deep, explosive sound rang out!

It all originated from that white paper tiger!

The creature that pounced on the little fox suddenly exploded in mid-air, turning into shredded pieces of paper that flew down in all directions.

This scene stunned the shrine staff standing on the stone steps, and the cold smile on the summoner's lips was frozen in time.

How terrifying is it that the Yin-Yang technique was broken without anyone noticing?

Taking advantage of the moment, the little fox leaped over the stone steps and plunged into the arms of the shaman who had her arms outstretched.

The repeated calls of "Big Sister" made the latter hug her even tighter, and she kept murmuring "I'm sorry" as if apologizing for her previous indifference.

"what?"

"Xia, how dare you?"

A moment later, the sorcerer suddenly came to his senses and looked coldly at the woman embracing the monster.

With no one around, the only one who could interrupt his spell was clearly this scapegoat priestess!

However, his accusations came to an abrupt end, firstly because the other party did not seem to have the ability to interrupt his spell, and secondly because the atmosphere around him suddenly became somewhat strange.

And there was a subtle sense of oppression that was pricking his nerves.

What's going on?!

Soon, a resounding question in his ears resolved the doubts that had been lingering in his mind.

"who are you?"

Amidst his companion's questioning voice, he looked down the mountain path and saw a young man's figure appear out of thin air on the stone steps!

But this should be almost impossible, because the mountain path goes straight down without any twists or turns, and it was previously a completely deserted place with no view.

"I?"

"Well, when asking someone's name, shouldn't you state your own name first?"

"It's not the Minamoto clan, not the Fujiwara clan, and not the Kamo clan."

"Forget it, I'm not interested in you anymore."

After glancing at the hunting robes of the shrine staff, Ara said with little interest.

This response immediately filled the priest and the surrounding Onmyoji with shame and indignation.

The three families mentioned are the Onmyoji masters of the three great families. How could they possibly go to the mountains outside Kyoto to repair the shrine?

Even though this place is close enough to Kyoto, it is still outside Kyoto!

"Hey, let's go, little fox."

"Let's talk about it later."

Ignoring the angry stares, Huang walked to the little girl's side as if no one else was there and tapped her little head with his finger.

Chapter 785 The trail is revealed, the god-slayer under the divine decree.

The little fox, seemingly understanding, lifted its face from the witch's arms after its head was gently poked and a summoning voice reached its ears.

Before her eyes was the very Onmyoji who had brought her here.

In the brief moment she raised her head, the other person had already stepped past her and blocked the hateful gazes of those bad people.

In an instant, the little guy understood what the former meant.

"Yes, Onmyoji."

She used all her strength to respond as loudly as possible, the joy in her voice hard to hide.

At the same time, the words the former had said at the foot of the mountain, "I'll take you up, and no one can stop me," kept echoing in his mind!

What a powerful and formidable Onmyoji!
