Onmyoji of the Grand Line

"Ok!"

Seimei nodded very gently. Although Yingcao possessed considerable demonic power and strength, he did not simply want her to participate in these matters. The reason was very simple: Yingcao was too naive. Letting her participate in these things would not be a good thing. It was better to let her grow up slowly.

"Master Harumi!"

"Master Harumi!"

Yaodao-hime, Hana-no-Maki, and Jorogumo all entered the room and sat down upon seeing the many shikigami present. Hana-no-Maki softly asked, "Lord Seimei, are the changes in Heian-kyo due to your affairs?"

Seimei smiled and nodded, saying, "Yes! I summoned Suzuka Mountain, and with its arrival, it has indeed brought tremendous changes to the entire Heian-kyo."

"really!"

"So that's it!"

"what!"

The shikigami all nodded, understanding what was happening. The reason was very simple! Suddenly, the spiritual power of Heian-kyo seemed to surge. Not only that, the dragon veins of Heian-kyo were also rapidly increasing, as if they had absorbed some kind of perfect tonic. Such a thing seemed like a good thing, but! Sometimes, if things are unclear, then it's not a good thing at all.

after all!

In that world of demons and monsters, it wouldn't be a good thing to absorb such things without any benefit! After all, the actions of those monsters are numerous and varied.

"Whoo~~~"

"So there's no need to be nervous. It's just that the arrival of Mount Suzuka has brought about huge changes to Heian-kyo."

After listening to Seimei's explanation, everyone nodded. Seimei, however, was deep in thought. Clearly, everything had been connected into a whole. This was not a joke; it was a true connection.

If Heian-kyo is the core of the city, then with the arrival of Mount Suzuka and the resulting improvements to Heian-kyo, does that mean that Mount Suzuka is already a part of it?

·· ··Requesting 0 flowers ·····

"and……"

Seimei muttered to himself, "When Heian-kyo truly improves time and time again, and thus undergoes a transformation, what will Heian-kyo, or rather, the entire Wano Country, become?"

"Hehehe~~~"

"This is something to look forward to!"

A smile appeared on Seimei's face. When everything had reached this point, things might become very interesting. What would Heian-kyo be like then? Seimei was very much looking forward to it!

He has gradually come to understand that Heian-kyo, Suzuka Mountain, and the future Sun Wheel Castle, Mount Oe, Mount Tengu, and so on are all part of everything. As all of this emerges, it may bring tremendous changes to the entire Wano Country. At that time, Wano Country will undergo earth-shattering changes, and perhaps it should no longer be called Wano Country, but something else entirely.

"Master Harumi!"

Yaodao-hime looked at Seimei and said softly, "You should rest for a bit! It's getting late, and the New Year is just around the corner. If you continue to be so busy, it will be very hectic for you!"

...... . ...

Seimei smiled and nodded, saying, "Yes! Don't worry, the New Year is just around the corner, and the future of Wano Country is so perfect, I won't overwork myself."

"Yes!"

Yaodao-hime bowed her head respectfully, and Seimei said gently, "Alright! If you want to go out and have fun, then go ahead. The New Year is coming soon, and the whole of Heian-kyo is decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations."

"Yes!"

All the shikigami nodded, and as they watched them leave one by one, Seimei slowly waved his folding fan, a dreamy smile appearing in his fox eyes. He murmured softly, "Really! Without realizing it, so many people have gathered around me! Many times, even if I'm not interested, I still have to keep going step by step!"

"Hehehe~~~"

A smile appeared on his face. Seimei didn't think this was a good thing at all. On the contrary, it was a very comfortable thing for Seimei. For him, these children were the most important. Guiding them to grow up step by step was not a bad thing.

Wano Country! ! !

In just two short years, it has become a powerful force that has attracted worldwide attention. However, for Seimei, this is merely the beginning. What will the future of this sea be? He doesn't know! He doesn't care either. Whether it's the Great Pirate Era, the Four Emperors Era, or the Worst Era, these are all insignificant to him. All he needs to do is protect Wano Country, and that's enough.

This country is my foundation, and these children, my people, my subjects—they are my foundation. As long as I protect these, what does it matter what happens in the outside world? It's all meaningless.

future!

It has already appeared before my eyes, and everything seems to have been revealed. It is a magnificent painting, and the master of the painting is Seimei. How to paint this painting is Seimei's job.

Chapter 116: The bustling Heian-kyo!

Snapped!

As he unfolded his folding fan, Seimei slowly stood up and walked to the window. His beautiful fox-like eyes smiled as he gazed quietly into the distance, whispering softly, "It is truly a beautiful sight. No matter the circumstances, I will never allow anything to go wrong."

Outside the window, centered around Heian-kyo, the New Year celebrations in Wano Country are in full swing. Perhaps! In the not-too-distant future, the entire Wano Country will undergo earth-shattering changes. At that time, everyone will still be themselves, but Wano Country will no longer be Wano Country, but a completely new country.

At that time, Wano Country will become a bizarre and wonderful new world, where gods and demons coexist, and humans and yokai walk side by side. It will be a world that may be beautiful, absurd, or strange, and all of this will happen in the future, perhaps in a short period of time.

……

Snapped!

Snapped!

White Wolf walked along the road, while Yingcao followed beside him, asking curiously, "Lord White Wolf, where are we going next?"

"Where are we going..."

White Wolf smiled and said, "Let's go have a drink next. The New Year is just two days away, perfect! We can relax a bit. Just like Lord Seimei said, it's always good to relax a little, no matter when!"

"Ok!"

Yingcao quickly followed Bailang's steps, and the two women headed into the distance with joyful smiles on their lips. As the New Year approached, the entire Wano Country was already decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and Heian-kyo was becoming more and more beautiful.

"But!"

Yingcao said cutely, "Master Fansi and Master Shiling are not in Heian-kyo anymore, otherwise! We would know the special New Year's gifts that the two masters prepared. In Yingcao's memory, the gifts that the two masters prepared every year were especially delicious."

"Hehehe~~~"

Unlike his usual self, the white wolf was dressed in a pure white kimono and smiled as he said, "Don't worry, soon those two lords will also be summoned by Lord Seimei. At that time, everything will be fully revealed before your eyes, won't it?"

"Yes!"

Yingcao, dressed in a cute kimono, held a dandelion in one hand and seemed shyly wanting to hold Bailang's hand. Bailang, looking at the adorable Yingcao, gently took her hand. The two girls headed towards the street in the distance. With the arrival of the New Year, many interesting stalls had appeared on the street.

……

"Whoo~~~"

The Demon Blade Princess exhaled a soft breath, dressed in a pure white kimono, kneeling on the seat, and drank the wine in her cup in one gulp. Then, she exhaled a soft breath and said, "Midori, tell me! Do I really have a problem with myself?"

"what!"

Green downed his wine in one gulp, looked at the woman sitting in front of him, and shook his head helplessly, saying, "Lady Demon Blade, you know perfectly well that Lord Seimei doesn't care whether you really want to regain your former power. Why can't you take a look yourself? If this continues, you'll only cause problems!"

Green was truly helpless. As a member of the Oni race, he pursued power, but he also pursued fine wine and bloodshed. This was the experience of the Oni race, and he simply didn't care about anything else.

Everything else was utterly insignificant to the demon race, something they didn't need to pay any attention to.

The Demon Blade Princess shook her head and said, "Power! If I possessed greater power, I could help Lord Seimei, instead of just..."

Yaodao-hime shook her head in silence, unable to overcome the barrier in her heart. Midori, on the other hand, said casually, "Lady Yaodao-hime, in my opinion, you're overthinking things. We oni are a race that pursues power, loves drinking, and loves fighting. Even Lord Shuten-dōji and Lord Ibaraki-dōji are the same. Why do we need to think so much?"

"He craves power, enjoys drinking, and loves fighting..."

These three things are very easy to put together, but doing them is not so easy at all! However, looking at her carefree drinking of the green wine, Yaodaoji began to ponder. Perhaps, she really was trapped in her own distortion!

As the saying goes, "a chance encounter can lead to unexpected success." It was because of Green's casual advice that Yaodaoji came to understand some things that were different from what she had imagined. Perhaps this was a good thing!

……

On the other side of the private room where Yaodaoji and Midori were staying, a group of Hundred Demons were drinking heavily, and the way they were doing it was really giving people a headache!

"red!"

"yellow!"

"Don't bully Qing. Qing's drunk, and there's also Lantern Fire. You need to be careful!"

Tang Paper Umbrella Demon truly felt helpless. She was like a mother or an older sister, taking care of these little ones. Everyone was drinking heartily, and everyone was very happy. Tang Paper Umbrella Demon knew that this joy was the joy of the New Year.

only!

This was truly a headache for Tang Paper Umbrella Demon; it was just too much to handle! Looking helplessly at the situation before him, Tang Paper Umbrella Demon resolutely declared from the bottom of his heart, "Next time! Next time! I absolutely will not help them again! They really are a handful of troublesome fellows!"

Although she said that, Tang Paper Umbrella Demon's smile was very warm. She was a child who lacked a family, but now, although there was noise and commotion, she had her own family.

Whether they are big monsters or small monsters, no one cares about so many concerns. They are just a family, a harmonious family!

……

Snapped!

Snapped!

As they walked along the road, the seven yokai—Sang, Sheng, Yan, Xu, Shan, and Yun—obediently followed behind Suzuka Gozen. Although they were very well-behaved, they also curiously observed their surroundings. This was their first time participating in a human New Year. Normally, for yokai, the New Year was not considered an important holiday!

after all!

The lifespan of monsters is far too long, and in such a long lifespan, it is naturally impossible for them to celebrate the New Year like humans. Moreover, monsters are often engaged in frantic battles, and the price they have to pay to survive is even greater. Naturally, they don't care about any of that.

"Suzuka Gozen-sama!"

Fengli said softly, "I sensed the presence of Lady Yaodaoji and the others. They should be drinking in this restaurant."
