I unleashed a Hundred Demons Parade in the Ninja World

However, before Huang could vent his anger, he suddenly noticed that the woman's eyes had become glistening with tears, like those of a little girl who had suffered a great injustice.

Perhaps Yao Ji herself didn't even realize that something had suddenly appeared in her eyes. She was still staring blankly at the foreign visitor so close to her, eagerly and hopefully wanting to get a positive answer.

This scene, resembling a world-famous painting, not only silenced Ara's sarcastic response but also created a tangible sense of indebtedness and guilt.

After all, this is a strong being that has silently protected its homeland for more than 800 years after the fall of Sunwheel City, and finally broke the cycle of reincarnation in this place!

Now, however, he is crying because of his own actions, which is somewhat unforgivable.

Most importantly, she chose to ask herself for help at the last moment, which in a way can be considered a betrayal of her own beliefs.

"Yes,"

"I did not lie to you."

Huang answered very seriously, his right pupil, which remained fixed on Huang, continued to receive Huang's trembling, probing gaze.

After receiving a positive answer, Yao Ji's tense mood finally eased somewhat, and the tears that had been welling up in her eyes broke through the limits of emotion and capacity, slowly sliding down her cool and bright cheeks.

"So, you have to take responsibility for me."

Seeing Yao Ji's current state, Huang's mind wavered even more. He even began to regret why he had maintained such a bad personality before, and in his panic, he said some ambiguous things.

These words immediately eased the woman's aggrieved expression, replaced by a hint of confusion and contemplation, as if she were trying to figure out what the former meant by 'responsibility'.

"cough,"

“What I mean is, if we can’t resolve the dangers that Sunwheel City is about to face, then I may be stuck here for several years, a dozen years, or even a hundred years.”

At this moment, Huang also realized that there was something inappropriate about his words.

Therefore, after coughing to disrupt the former's train of thought, he went on to expand and add to the discussion.

"Therefore, you must assist me, which is also to save your homeland and your companions."

As he finished speaking, both his words and his expression became increasingly solemn and serious.

After all, once the option to return midway is canceled, the only ways to return from the secret realm are, on the surface, to complete the mission or to forcibly break through the space.

If you want to leave through other secret realms, that's also possible, but you need to enter a higher-level secret realm; you can't just transfer or go downhill.

The Ancient Land of the Sun is already a mythical-level secret realm; to advance further, one would need to enter a Hundred Ghosts-level secret realm.

Leaving aside whether Huang has the Hundred Ghosts-level Secret Realm quest, the requirement of completing the Eighty-Eight Ghost Night Parade to open the Hundred Ghosts-level Secret Realm is still some distance away.

This is one of the reasons why he decisively chose to stay when he heard Yao Ji's call.

Hearing the Onmyoji in front of her speak so solemnly, Yao Ji immediately put aside all other thoughts.

"So everything I dreamed about was real?"

After wiping away the unnecessary residue on her cheek, she looked at the former seriously and spoke slowly and deliberately.

"Yes."

In response to this question, Huang nodded without hesitation.

"but why?"

"The sun that has protected Sunwheel City for thousands of years would never abandon this city and its inhabitants without a reason. Why did it turn into the way it appears in the dream?"

This is Yao Ji's biggest question, and it's something she still doesn't want to believe or question.

However, after experiencing the previous setbacks, she began to muster the courage to face this possibility.

"It's very simple, because of your queen."

"For a descendant with divine blood to marry a mortal is an act of defiance against Takamagahara and a desecration of the sun god."

“I think you, living in this ancient city, should be well aware of this.”

"Or is it that being protected for thousands of years has made you forget the laws established by the gods?"

This time, Huang didn't hide anything and went straight to the crux of the problem.

Upon hearing the answer, Yo-hime's face turned noticeably pale, because the union of a shrine maiden with a mortal or a yokai was indeed a violation of the rules of the gods, and such things had happened before.

"But Lady Himiko and Lady Mantou are truly in love."

"If we inform the gods of everything in advance, then, considering the Queen's governance of Sunwheel City, we might be able to obtain what we wish for."

But even if you find the problem and understand what the most direct and useful solution is.

But Yao Ji still couldn't bear to touch that answer.

Because she wanted to see Her Majesty find her own happiness.

This desire is shared by countless residents of Sunwheel City!

However, before Yao Ji could continue to indulge in this beautiful fantasy, Huang's cold and disdainful retort drenched her completely:

"But the question is, will the gods listen to your advice?"

Chapter 617 Advancing and retreating together, swearing an oath by the profound meaning of the moon.

【Won't,】

The gods will not answer the prayers of the disobedient.

Upon arriving at this answer, Yao Ji's already cold and beautiful face paled even further.

The image of him prostrating himself in the cold temple and pleading humbly in my nightmare is still vivid in my mind.

But all of this must be based on one fact:

Will the sun god truly unleash divine punishment in anger because of Lady Himiko's marriage to a mortal? And are my nightmares truly a prophetic cry for help from the city of the sun?

After all, even the gods cannot predict how the future will unfold.

However, due to everything that happened here,

It is now impossible to make Yo-hime firmly believe that the sun will protect and forgive everything, and to treat everything she foresaw in her dream as if nothing had happened.

All she needs right now is one last affirmation, one push from behind the scenes.

"You really aren't lying to me, are you?"

The question that had been asked before was asked again, but it contained a question that was completely different from the one before.

Yao Ji stared intently at the former's exposed right pupil, as if trying to capture every ripple and emotion within it.

But all she saw was the calm, undisturbed water.

"Yes,"

"I haven't lied to you, and I will do everything I can to help you."

"Because this is also for my own sake."

Huang's gaze met the woman's probing without wavering.

The responses also included some additional information.

This brief addition caused Yao Ji's gaze to tremble slightly, and also caused time and space around her to freeze for a moment.

"I believe you."

A short while later, Huang received a response from the woman.

Although brief, heaven knows what kind of psychological struggle he went through before choosing to completely abandon his faith and instead believe in a stranger who only exists in his dreams!

"What do you want to do?"

The fact that she proactively brought up the topic was a further indication of her will at that moment.

"There is only one way to completely prevent Sunwheel City from being cleansed by divine punishment,"

"I think you should be very clear about this method, which is to prevent your queen from marrying a mortal."

"If they have not committed any crime against the rules of Takamagahara, then the Sun Wheel Castle will naturally not be cursed."

After speaking, Ara paused for a moment, waiting for Yao Ji's reaction.

This is the simplest method, and also the optimal solution that can be obtained from this plane of existence.

After all, here, Takamagahara is an existence that transcends all individuals and forces.

But for Queen Himiko and Mantou, who were deeply in love, loving each other but being unable to be together was a pain that surpassed even the pain of separation by death.

Upon hearing this, Yao Ji did not respond immediately, but instead turned her face slightly away, her soft lower lip being gently bitten by her protruding pearly teeth.

Clearly, although she knew this was the best approach, she couldn't truly commit to accepting the decision.

"I originally intended to use my eyes to change the will of Wan Deng, so that he would temporarily forget his memory and love with the goddess."

"After all, the lives of humans and the descendants of gods are not the same."

"Rather than experiencing separation and death a hundred years from now, it's better to end it here and save the entire Sunwheel City from the brink of destruction."

Looking at the collaborator in front of him who had not responded for a long time, Huang spoke again and made no attempt to hide his original plan.

Since the other party has chosen to trust you, there is no point in hiding anything further.

Furthermore, in order to gain the former's approval, he directly used the most cruel and realistic words as arguments.

After all, that's the truth.

For all the residents of Sunwheel City, even after thousands of years of reincarnation, Queen Himiko, who possesses divine blood, will forever stand on this land where things have changed!

Even their appearance will not age.

But how could her partner, who was just an ordinary person, escape the erosion of time?

A hundred years, which is the sum of a human's lifetime.

For the gods, it is but a fleeting moment in a long life.

"Even if Lord Mantou cannot stay with Lady Himiko forever,"

"Does that mean we must deprive them of their happiness right now? Does it mean we must deprive Lady Himiko of the love that ordinary people desire forever?"

"I don't agree."

"The entire population of Sunwheel City will not agree!"

The overly extreme arguments caused Yao Ji's emotions to suddenly become somewhat uncontrollable.
