Shota is surrounded by monsters!

Shota showed no outward reaction, but inwardly he was experiencing a tremendous upheaval.

The gaze that Jizo cast towards him was filled with killing intent!

"No need..."

Hagoromo Gitsune's words carried a slight hint of dissatisfaction with Aojizo, saying, "You don't need to get involved in this matter."

"……Yes."

Dizang gritted his teeth and agreed, then said, "Why don't you let Kuang Gu serve by your side? At times like this, having someone with you can easily ease your mood."

"Kyokotsu? Call her over here."

"……yes."

Aojizo wore a smug smile, and Shota's original plan was completely disrupted.

Chapter 148. Various Parties in Momentum

"So, you're the ones who're supposed to be really strong?!"

"Bam—"

At the Ninth Seal, the Onmyoji who were planning a counterattack to reseal it encountered the Nura Clan who had come to Kyoto. They had just joined forces to deal with the monsters that were entrenched there when they discovered that a huge creature had suddenly jumped down from the sky!

"spread!"

Rikuo quickly waved his hand to signal the monsters that didn't have much fighting ability to disperse, and warily watched the huge monster slowly emerge from the smoke.

He wears a demon mask, has four arms, and is almost as tall as a typical building!

"what!"

Before Lu Sheng could get a good look, the enormous demon that had descended from the sky began sweeping its massive hand, as large as a house, across the ground...

In an instant, a whole row of yokai belonging to the Nura Clan were sent flying!

"It's a Kyoto yokai! Those who aren't confident in their skills, all of you, step back!"

Seemingly sensing what Lu Sheng said, the monster turned around and looked at Lu Sheng.

"My name is Tsuchigumo (Earth Spider), and I've come here specifically to challenge powerful opponents... There are so many of them here, surely there are a few with backbone, right?"

Tsuchigumo's gaze swept over the main combat forces behind Rikuo, and he commented, "It's you, it's you... or it's you?"

The Yuki-onna, Oikawa Hyoure, who had joined up with Rikuo, looked at Tsuchigumo warily and said, "Don't underestimate us!"

"Fool."

Various kinds of black energy were faintly wrapped around Rikuo's body. He placed his hand on the demon sword Mimikiri and said, "You all step back. I'll deal with this guy."

This guy... the pressure he exudes is terrifying!

Just by sensing the fear unconsciously emanating from the other party, Lu Sheng realized that the monster in front of him was definitely not an ordinary monster that could be contended with.

"Shh!"

As soon as Rikuo finished speaking, Tsuchigumo slammed all four of its arms down into the ground. With a terrible tremor, it raised its four arms again and began attacking everyone present!

"Boom!"

The world feels like it's about to collapse!

Is this all the skill you've got?

After Tsuchigumo stopped what he was doing, he looked around at the messy scene and, feeling utterly bored, pulled out his pipe and took a puff.

"Ok?"

Just then, he suddenly noticed the only person standing on the field, a familiar face dressed as an Onmyoji.

"It's you, the one who sealed me away four hundred years ago."

Hakasakain Hidemoto.

Because Keikain Yura is still conscious, he can still exist here even after being summoned.

"Anyway, we need to find a way to get out of here first. It's really unlucky to run into this guy here."

Hidemoto Kagein silently communicated with Yura Kagein on the other side.

"This guy?"

"Tsuchigumo... is hailed as an invincible monster..."

A flicker of regret crossed Hidemoto's eyes. He hadn't expected Tsuchigumo to suddenly attack the Nura Clan's grandson. The plan had ultimately changed; the Nura Clan was no match for Tsuchigumo now.

If... that gluttonous beast Yuluo-chan mentioned were here too, that would be great. He's probably the only one capable of subduing the Earth Spider...

pity……

I wonder how things are progressing on the other side.

"..."

Just then, the ruins around Hidemoto Keikain suddenly loosened, and after the stones fell down, the Nura Clan's fighters reappeared, surrounding Rikuo with serious expressions.

"It looks like this will be fun."

When Tsuchigumo saw that there were still people standing, he became excited. He put his pipe back down and said, "Come on, attack!"

"..."

Without saying a word, Lu Sheng launched another attack on the other side!

No, we can't confront the Earth Spider head-on.

Hideyuki Hanakain had a bad feeling, and Tsuchigumo's fist struck Rikuo's body squarely!

"Little Lord!"

"Don't be nervous, Yuki-onna."

Kurotabo wasn't too nervous, because he had already seen that Tsuchigumo's fist had only pierced through Nura Rikuo's ethereal fear.

"Oh? You've got some skills..."

Tsuchigumo realized he had missed, but he didn't care at all. Instead, he stretched out his hands again and grabbed at Rikuo!

No, the person they arrested was not Lu Sheng.

It was the fear of the land-dwelling people!

"Tear--"

A wisp of black mist was torn apart by the earth spider, and Lu Sheng's figure reappeared there!

"I've found you!"

"boom!"

Inside a building in Kyoto, a group of people are gathered together making final decisions.

"Listen carefully, the most important task this time is for you, my tsundere."

Meme Oshino glanced at Hitagi Senjougahara and said, "No matter what happens, stay calm. But don't worry, I won't stand idly by if there's any danger."

"I see."

Hitagi Senjougahara nodded. This time, she would take on the most important role in the plan to save Shota.

"Young Miss, I'm sorry, this time you'll have to watch from behind."

"No, it is I who should thank you all."

Rea shook her head. As a vampire, she was not only easily detected, but also lacked the combat power to influence the course of the battle. Therefore, she knew that she could only wait silently here with Mashiro.

Please, nothing bad should happen. Shota-kun.

"Ghost Girl, I'm counting on you to pinpoint the guy's location and tell him about our plan."

Shinobu glanced at Yomi and said, "But I also believe in your abilities."

"And me?"

Mashiro looked at Shinobu with anticipation and asked a question.

"Oh, this soft and fluffy thing just needs to stay here and wait with the young lady."

Oshino Meme scratched her head awkwardly, and just then, the Snake Princess, who had been ignored all along, finally spoke up.

"Um, I also want to do something... After all, the young man has been very good to me..."

"..."

After glancing at the Snake Princess a few times, Shinobu said to the others, "That's about it. Let's move in when it gets late. We can't delay any longer; Taotie's injuries must be quite severe..."

"Ugh……"

Finding herself utterly useless, Snake Princess could only continue to sigh and lament.

"Wow, I didn't expect that kid to be so popular. So many people are worried about him."

Just then, a short old man suddenly appeared in the room, and everyone took a few steps back in surprise. Even Shinobu seemed not to have noticed how he appeared.

"An old man from the Nura Clan?!"

Mashiro suddenly appeared and shouted something.

"Hey, isn't this that kid's little sister? It feels like ages! Want some candy?"

The person who appeared there was none other than Nurarihyon, the first leader of the Nura Clan. When he saw Mashiro, he smiled so much that his eyes narrowed, and he even took a handful of candy from his pocket and handed it to her.

"Thank you."

Mashiro naturally accepted the candy, but Rea, who had met the other person a few times, suddenly remembered something and quickly asked, "Excuse me, are you here to rescue Shota-kun?"

Well, that's about right.

After giving a casual reply, Nurarihyon turned his attention to Oshino Meme and asked as if they were old friends, "Haven't seen you in years?"

"More than three years, old man."

Oshino Meme sat down again, looked at Nurarihyon and said, "You're as energetic as ever."

"Haha, I'm getting old. Now I'm just happy to see the younger generation grow up healthy."

Nurarihyon chuckled twice, then his expression suddenly changed, and he said, "What are you planning to do with my apprentice?"
