The tenderness faded,
A cold, icy glint filled the woman's eyes.
What was supposed to come finally came!
that,
Bring it on!
On the ground, following the instructions of the Onmyoji, the old general who was also heading towards the Sun Wheel Pavilion seemed to sense something. He suddenly stopped, raised his head, and looked towards the sky in response to that special feeling.
His pupils were slightly narrowed.
Due to the dim light of the day, and his advanced age, he no longer possessed the sharp eyesight he had in his prime.
However, it still found the source of its unease in the boundless sky.
I see,
He or she
Standing alone in the vast sky, her long, silvery-white hair, reaching to her ankles, completely enveloped her slender figure. Her posture, with her back to the earth and facing a higher, mysterious realm, made it seem as if she were guarding this land!
“Yao........”
In an instant, the general recognized the man's identity from his simple silhouette.
Even though she didn't turn her gaze back, even though her overall appearance had changed, even though her beautiful pale purple hair, as beautiful as the starry sky, had inexplicably turned silver-white.
Yet, she immediately recognized that the person standing alone in the night sky, watching over the entire earth, was her proudest daughter!
However, the general's call was only on the tip of his tongue before it abruptly stopped.
Because he knew very well what his stubborn and strong-willed daughter was doing.
"General, what's wrong? Are you looking at something?"
Seeing the usually strong, steady, and resilient general suddenly stop and his eyes redden, the soldier standing beside him hesitated for a moment before finally asking, "What are you doing?"
Hearing this,
The old general slowly withdrew his gaze and did not respond.
He said only softly:
"Let's go, don't waste everyone's time."
Even though he really wanted to point to the figure gradually being obscured by the clouds and mist, and say to everyone around him with a mix of pride and sorrow:
That's Yo-hime.
She risked her life to build a corridor that would protect everyone's lives, even though she knew full well what horrors awaited her!
but,
The general managed to suppress his emotions.
Because he could not allow his own emotions to interfere with the evacuation of all the residents of Sunwheel City.
Because life is like a distant boat, a once-in-a-lifetime encounter.
Yao Ji was simply fulfilling her duty.
Fulfill the duty of protecting Her Majesty the Queen and the entire Sunwheel City!
"Yes, General."
"However, I think I vaguely saw Lady Youhime's shadow in the sky,"
"According to that Onmyoji from another land, he came to this world to save everyone from danger because he heard Lady Yao's sincere request."
"Ah, I really want to see Lady You-hime soon so I can express my gratitude to her..."
At the same moment that Takiyasha-hime saw the arrival of the next Divine Punisher, Ara, who was standing in the shrine, withdrew his gaze, and his cold voice broke the tenderness between Queen Himiko and Mantou rather inappropriately.
"I'm sorry to interrupt your heartfelt conversation at this time."
"But what are you going to do next, Your Majesty?"
“They have already arrived.”
"Oh, right, I've already had the soldiers from the General's Mansion guide all the residents toward the Sun Wheel Pavilion."
He turned around and calmly looked at the two of them.
The unique right eye that was exposed not only emitted a scarlet light within its socket and had a windmill-like mark rotating on its pupil, but also had hideous and terrifying veins spreading at the corner of its eye.
They have accomplished everything they could and promised to do.
Logically speaking, there shouldn't be anything else for him to do next.
Just as he finished speaking, the last few 'red tassels' in the shrine that were slowing down the patients' time quietly broke, and the entire Sun Wheel City seemed to have been hit by some heavy bomb, suddenly experiencing a violent tremor!
"Click."
And then a crisp sound rang out, and a clear crack appeared on the Cloud Mirror, one of the ancient treasures of the Sun Wheel City.
Clearly, the mirror space created by it has been seen through by the divine punishers who arrived later, and they are now trying to shatter this spatial node directly, so that the real Sun Wheel City can rise again from 'below the water'.
But this intense tremor quickly subsided.
No, perhaps it shouldn't be described as "stopped".
The Sun Queen, who had not replied, was pouring her divine power into the Cloud Mirror with all her might, and the entire space seemed to freeze in that instant, becoming stable.
However, through Hyuga Byakugan, Ara could clearly see that the impact and shock transmitted from the fictional space had not disappeared, but had been separated by an invisible force into the sky, the ground, and the outer circle far away from Sunwheel Castle.
And this invisible force
Without a doubt, it comes from the spatial power of the Cloud Mirror!
"You saved me, esteemed Onmyoji."
As Himiko was desperately trying to stabilize the space with her divine artifact, Mantou, who was standing beside her, suddenly spoke.
He was a gentle and composed man, and with his handsome appearance, it was no wonder that the goddess Queen Sun could be moved by mortal desires.
Upon hearing this, Huang did not speak, but merely nodded slightly as he scrutinized the former, which was his response.
After all, ordinary people are of no use in this critical moment of divine attack, and casual conversations are just a waste of this already precious time.
unless........
Huang considered a possibility, and the scrutinizing look in his eyes subtly shifted into a simulated conjecture.
"I'm sorry to have troubled you, but I'm also very grateful that you were able to come to Sunwheel City and provide assistance to the people of this land."
Wan Deng didn't pay attention to the young Onmyoji's cold attitude, but instead bowed respectfully to express his gratitude.
"Leave the rest to me."
"I will apologize to the gods."
“It all started because of me. I seduced the goddess first, and all the blame should be borne by me.”
He said calmly,
Despite his appearance as a frail scholar, he displayed a calm and fearless attitude towards the gods and death.
That courage...
Ara's slightly narrowed Sharingan did not detect any particular ripples in it.
"No, it's no use,"
"The sun god, yes, will not forgive us."
Upon hearing such remarks, Himiko spoke urgently and intermittently, clearly indicating that demarcating a secondary space to isolate the transmission and intrusion of powerful divine energy was also a very costly undertaking for her.
However, as the nominal king of this ancient city, he managed to temporarily stabilize this space through the power of the divine artifact in the power struggle.
However, as a prelude to this power struggle, the cracks that appeared on the surface of the Cloud Mirror began to spread in all directions, and the Sun Queen's face grew even paler.
"And I am the one who was wrong, and I am the one who needs to atone."
“I knew perfectly well what the rules were set by Takamagahara, yet I ignored everyone’s warnings and insisted on doing so.”
After maintaining a stable output of power to the Cloud Mirror, Queen Himiko's voice gradually became calmer.
At the same time, she earnestly said to the Onmyoji in her field of vision:
"Thank you for gathering all the residents of Sunwheel City for me,"
"Next, I will use the power of the Cloud Mirror to relocate all the residents of Sun Wheel City, and then go to the Sun God to apologize."
"But, Onmyoji, may I ask you one last thing?"
"In return, this Cloud Mirror will be given to you as an equivalent exchange item."
Himiko specifically mentioned the term 'equivalent exchange,' which was the principle of interaction that the other party held that night.
As for Shi Qu, she wanted to leave it to her most beloved minister.
This will give Yao Ji a trump card that can turn the tide no matter what future or choice she faces.
"You said."
Huang responded calmly.
However, Yu Zhi's inner world was not as calm as it appeared on the surface.
The allure of the cloud-perimeter is undoubtedly immense.
Such a divine artifact, possessing numerous spatial abilities, is enough to make a simple individual invincible for a long time, just like Uchiha Obito, who repeatedly defied various forces and powerful figures.
However, the conditions under which the other party is willing to give such an item away must be very demanding.
Moreover, the Sun Queen before them clearly had a grasp on some of her relatively steadfast personality traits.
Unless the entire Sunwheel City is destroyed in divine punishment and becomes ownerless, he will never consider it his own.
Although there is only a one-word difference between 'borrowing' and 'gifting,' they have completely different meanings for someone like Huang.
Queen Himiko secretly breathed a sigh of relief upon receiving a response.
She knew she had made the right bet; the Onmyoji before her wasn't simply someone who sought power. Otherwise, the mere fact that healed the residents of Sun Wheel City would have been enough to make him obediently hand over the Cloud Mirror.
After silently apologizing in her heart, she looked at the Onmyoji in front of her and stated her conditions word by word:
