Tokyo: My Hundred Demon Scroll

Shiro Tsuba looked at Gu Yun with amusement, clearly putting pressure back on the younger generation, which pleased him quite a bit.

"Tsuba is still such a jerk."

They even bully little kids.

"Yeah, that's so shameless."

"Hey! You three, that's enough!"

Tsubagi Shiro said with dissatisfaction, "A guy who dies so easily has no right to criticize me!"

"Eh~~"

"Shut up, everyone!!!"

In conclusion, the underworld is ultimately another world.

The problems of the real world shouldn't bother them anymore.

Therefore, it is highly likely that Higa Kotoko will challenge Tanigumo and Tsubaki Shiro.

Of course, Gu Yun is a junior, and given Higa Kotoko's arrogance, she certainly wouldn't come to challenge him immediately.

She will probably go to find Shiro Tsubagi first.

In terms of seniority and experience, Shiro Tsubagi is a first-rate folk master.

In terms of combat strength, he is definitely not inferior to Iijima Gouji.

If such a senior master could defeat him, the fame he would gain would certainly far surpass that of an unknown nobody like Gu Yun.

"Then, what about Senior Sister Miyako?"

"As for Miyako, she will probably become Higa's target as well."

Reiko already knew about Miyako from Gu Yun and her grandfather.

When she died, Miyako was only seven or eight years old.

However, after the exorcism ritual, Miyako's spiritual power exceeded 50. If placed in the exorcism world, she would definitely be a figure who could carry the flag after the Four Heavenly Kings.

If Higa Kotoko truly wanted to unify the Japanese exorcism world, she would definitely not let such a powerful figure go.

"Speaking of which, Higa's return to action should actually be considered a good thing, right?"

In response, Goshiro Kotaki commented: "The sorcerers in the exorcism world fight their own battles. If only one of them could step forward, wouldn't that be exactly what we hoped for back then?"

True exorcists are extremely rare.

Psychic abilities are extremely rare, perhaps only one in ten thousand. In the entire country of Japan, there are probably only around 10000 such individuals.

Moreover, among these 10,000 people, only 1 to 5 have a spiritual level, which means that people like Tamaki Iijima, who can see ghosts but can't do anything about it, make up 90% of them.

With only 1 people, even if you claim you can see monsters and ghosts, others will just think you have delusions or are delusional.

There are definitely more than 1 people with mental problems in all of Japan.

Even if they were all thrown into mental hospitals, the country wouldn't feel too much pressure.

It is easy to imagine what a vulnerable group psychics are.

They are the only ones who can see it, but they cannot practice the magic.

He suffers from all sorts of ghosts and monsters every day, and his fellow countrymen treat him as a weirdo and isolate him.

If this continues, even if there were no problems initially, it will likely cause all sorts of health issues.

"So, if she were to come to me," Gu Yun asked, "wouldn't it be better to offer her support?"

There are probably only about 1000 sorcerers (who can perform magic) in all of Japan.

These people are scattered all over the country.

Of those, at most two or three hundred are willing to become exorcists and make a living from it.

Like Gu Yun, he can't really be considered an exorcist, he's just a capable sorcerer.

Similarly, the Four Heavenly Kings of Wild Fox Zen all belong to this category.

Only those sorcerers who truly make exorcism their primary profession will be recognized as 'official exorcists'.

Whether it is official or not, there is another crucial criterion.

That is, whether people in society or ordinary people can easily find you, such as how to post a request or how to contact the person.

Miyako and Tanigumo's relationship was purely based on shared interests.

They don't accept any commissions, nor do they have any similar channels of contact; at most, they help people they know.

These are unofficial folk sorcerers.

Seven or eight hundred out of a thousand people fall into this category.

The folk sect lives in seclusion throughout the country, either in the mountains and countryside or with a legitimate job to support themselves.

The only way they could communicate with each other was through the annual Kyoto Exorcist Conference.

So if a warlock has never attended an exorcist convention, he might actually become invisible.

Gu Yun: I'm practically invisible now...

"Um…"

Grandpa thought for a while and said, "Let's see. If the other party is a good person, then we should definitely support them."

The key lies with Higa Kotoko herself.

What exactly does she want to do?

If she really intends to gather all the sorcerers in Japan and usher in a new era.

As beneficiaries, they had no reason not to agree.

The other party is willing to stand in the spotlight and bear enormous pressure and risks, while Gu Yun and others can obtain various benefits.

This isn't arrogance, it's revolutionary leadership!

“Since the Ten Famous Clan has taken the initiative to invite the Higa Dohan Clan,” said Kotaki Goshiro, “it seems that the group of official exorcists in high society must support her.”

The Ten Famous Men were not evil people; they mingled with the Japanese government, which was essentially a deterrent to ordinary people.

In a way, they actually protected people like Gu Yun.

"So, is that little girl's target the grassroots faction?"

With his hands tucked in his pockets and a troubled expression, Tsubagi Shiro said, "Oh dear, this is really troublesome. I don't want to be so old and have to fight demons."

Not all members of the folk sects are strong, but there are indeed some hidden masters among them who are even the most renowned sects.

Putting aside others, Shiro Tsubagi and Gosho Iijima are similar to Fujitora, who emerged during the Navy's massive recruitment drive.

Even if these two were placed among the top ten sects, they would definitely be big shots at the level of sect leaders.

Even if Higa Kotoko wins a one-on-one match, it will definitely not be an easy victory.

After all, her age is a factor, and the immense spiritual power accumulated by her two seniors over decades is not something a mere girl under 20 years old can underestimate.

"Let's see how things go with Higa."

Anyway, even if the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up.

The number of people in the grassroots faction is large, and some of them have even lost contact with their grandfathers and the others.

For example, the Fire Flower Rin and the Earth Moon Field from the Five Elements family.

Grandpa could clearly sense that the two of them were in Japan and had never left.

Unfortunately, both families were extremely low-key and kept their relationship hidden for over fifty years. Even my grandfather only met the elders of these two families when he was young.

The reason some of the ten goalkeepers' families were removed from the list was not because the latter were not strong enough.

Instead, they abandoned the intrigues and power struggles of the world and chose to live in seclusion.

"Alright, let's talk about something happy."

Tsubagi Shiro suddenly spoke up: "The four of us are called the Four Heavenly Kings by busybodies, but in another ten years or so, the Four Heavenly Kings will probably become history."

Are you happy about this?

Gu Yun was completely confused and didn't get the joke at all.

"Inheritance, oh inheritance."

Shiro Tsubaki crossed his arms and said, "I really can't find anyone who can teach me the God of War Technique, and I don't want this forbidden technique to be lost. This is a real problem for me."

Fighting God Technique, also known as Martial God Art, is a forbidden technique created by Shiro Tsubagi.

Together with Lingzi's Law-Controlling Technique, Kotaki's Spirit Vision Technique, and Grandpa's Divine Control Technique, they are known as the Four Forbidden Techniques in Folk Legends.

"You think everyone is like you, hiding their treasures so well, Shiro?"

Kotaki Goshiro smiled smugly: "I've made sure to pass on the Spirit Vision Technique properly!"

He passed on his spiritual vision technique to the snail, who then passed it on to Miyako and Gu Yun.

Therefore, the art of clairvoyance has successors, and they are all alive and well.

"That's really a problem."

Reiko said, "Rena's spiritual level is not high enough to create her own Book of Friends."

"Hey?"

At this point, Reiko looked at Gu Yun: "I was saying there's a ready-made solution, right, Shiro? That's what you really meant!"

"Nei-nei, Gu Yun-chan, do you want to learn your older sister's Laws of Command?"

"Laws and Decrees?"

“It’s the forbidden technique I used to create the Book of Friends,” Reiko said with a smile, hugging Tanigumo in her arms. “Tanigumo-chan, you’ll definitely be able to learn it, and maybe you can even surpass me.”

"Then I'll pass on the Battle God Technique to Xiao Gu Yun as well."

Tsubaki Shiro revealed a cunning smile of triumph, and said, "Brother Iijima should have taught this child the Divine Art as well, right?"

"No way, if that's the case..."

Reiko exclaimed, "Doesn't that mean Kotani Yun will master all four forbidden techniques by himself?"
