Having had enough fun and packed up his clothes, Wu Feng began to worry about another problem: how to get back! Zi Ma showed no mercy in her beatings! She didn't know how much force she used, but the wound was swollen and wouldn't heal no matter what, and even using the power of death, the healing process was very slow.

If I go back, Yoji will definitely worry. I'd better wait until I fall down before going back... It won't make a difference if I go back in a few days.

"It seems the monster expansion plan has already begun," Wu Feng thought, looking at the notification sound.

I originally planned to go out for a two-month trip. The outside world is now in the Ming Dynasty, and I wanted to go and see what it's like. But just as I was about to leave through the gap, I received a notification that I was in a special range and the gap's durability was being consumed tenfold.

Damn, I guess I'll just wander around Gensokyo.

Within Gensokyo, Wu Feng began to wander aimlessly. Before long, he discovered a place densely populated with demonic energy, and judging by the direction, it turned out to be the least likely place to have demonic energy—the Human Village! (Originally, I wasn't planning to write this part of the story and just start a new world, but then I thought that deleting it would probably reduce the amount of吐槽 (tu cao, a form of humorous commentary/criticism) later on…)

Chapter Fifty-Six: Bai Ze Huiyin

Following the direction of the demonic aura, Wu Feng encountered many small demons of moderate strength along the way, and occasionally even saw ferocious demons. The density of them was terrifying; on average, there was a demon every hundred meters. Wu Feng was very curious about what they were doing. They all seemed to be searching for something collectively, but strangely, when he asked them, they couldn't answer. They seemed to know but couldn't remember what they were looking for.

Then Wu Feng also discovered the benefits of being beaten... he no longer attracts ridicule! Other monsters only remarked that he looked like a human when they saw him, and then ignored him and continued their search, unlike last time when he was chased and beaten before even leaving the Japanese region... Damn, how hard did you hit him, Zi Ma?! He's almost been beaten out of the human category!

The area with the densest demonic energy was near the Human Village. Just as Wu Feng was about to go and take a look at the Human Village, an idea suddenly popped into his head.

What is the Human Village? Where is it? Does this place exist in Gensokyo?

One question after another appeared in my mind, as if the Human Village did not exist in Gensokyo at all in my memory.

If it weren't for the resurfacing of memories from Earth that confirmed the existence of the Human Village, and the gradual re-emergence of related memories, Wu Feng might have truly believed that the Human Village never existed.

Manipulating memories? No, it's more like denying the existence of the Human Village from reality, erasing its history, blurring all the monsters' memories of the Human Village, and creating chaos.

Is it the mythical beast that devours history, Kaname Hoshizawa?

It's likely that the monsters outside want to invade the village of humans, and Kamishirasawa Keine, who has always stood on the side of humans, swallowed up the history of the village of humans in order to protect it from the outside world and achieve the purpose of protection.

If he weren't a time traveler, even Wu Feng would have fallen into the trap and forgotten the existence of the Human Realm.

Although Wu Feng still remembered the Human Village, the way to it had been erased from his memory. After all, it was something that happened after he came to this world, so he could only find it by trial and error.

After Wu Feng had been searching for several hours and could already see the outline of the Human Village, a gentle voice entered his ears.

"Messenger of the Sage of Yokai, Keine has been waiting for you for a long time. Please come into the village to talk."

The messenger of the sage of demons? Wu Feng had a feeling he was about to fall into a trap...

As you approach the village entrance, you can see a beautiful girl in a blue dress gradually walking towards you. Her brown eyes are filled with gentleness, her waist-length silver hair sways gently in the wind, she wears a blue graduation cap with a red ribbon, and a dark blue long skirt with white short sleeves.

Upon seeing Wu Feng's appearance, Huiyin couldn't help but lightly cover her mouth.

"Laugh if you want, your voice is a little better." Along the way, Wu Feng had come to realize just how badly he had been beaten... Calling him a pig's head wouldn't be an exaggeration at all...

Huiyin gently shook her head. "I just feel that Lord Zi is a bit too strict with his subordinates." With her sharp eyesight, she could naturally see the energy attached to the wounds on her body at a glance, and she also knew who had hit her.

With a gentle wave of his hand, pale blue energy seeped into his body like water droplets, a cooling sensation constantly appearing at the wound site. "I believe the Sage of the Demon Realm won't blame me for meddling; I should be fully recovered in about half a day."

This is truly a goddess for otaku! I must marry a goddess like her someday! Wu Feng thought gratefully.

While he was thinking, no one noticed the extremely brief blush that appeared on Huiyin's face. It was clear that Kamishirasawa Huiyin couldn't read minds.

"Lord Keion, why do you call me the messenger of the sage of demons?"

It has been confirmed through [Nagato Yuki's Glasses (Inferior)] that the goddess's level is [Super Low: Level 65], leaving Wu Feng far behind. My nascent dream has been shattered...

"Is the way you address Saigyouji Yuuka correct?" Keine asked gently.

"Um"

"A day ago, the Sage of Yokai sent word that he would send Saigyouji Yuuka, the newcomer of the Yakumo family, to handle this matter."

...Zi Ma, you tricked me again!

No wonder I could sense the dense demonic aura in the human village after only a few steps!

Well, Wu Feng understood that Yukari Mama probably wanted to use this incident to let the youkai in Gensokyo know which side she belonged to... After all, Gensokyo wasn't very safe right now, as it had just started its youkai expansion plan and was arguably in its most chaotic period.

"Please tell me about the situation around here, Lady Huiyin." Wu Feng couldn't just give up now, especially since it was to help the goddess. He decided to endure it.

"Since Lady Murasaki began implementing the youkai expansion plan, it has drawn dissatisfaction from most of the smaller youkai in Gensokyo. After all, the ban on preying on humans in the human village and the ban on leaving Gensokyo have had a significant impact. Because it is a joint action by major powers, most youkai can only cooperate. However, there are still some youkai who live by preying on humans who cannot stand it anymore." Keine showed a troubled expression, as it was also difficult to deal with these youkai.

As a mythical creature from history, Kamishirasawa Keine was not opposed to the plan. The prohibition against preying on humans in the human village even excited her for a long time, but for man-eating monsters, it was a nightmare.

"In order to oppose the plans of the Sage of Yokai, these yokai have decided to unite and destroy the human village, devouring all humans and forcing the yokai expansion plan to stop."

The plan to wipe out all of humanity would weaken or even eliminate the power of the youkai within Gensokyo, which existed due to human fear or faith, forcing the youkai expansion plan to stop. But if you think that this is enough to successfully stop the youkai expansion plan, you are underestimating Yukari.

The great youkai in the gap can appear anywhere in Gensokyo at any time. It's a pipe dream to try and destroy the Human Village. Even if you succeed, you still have a chance to destroy it again if they bring back humans from the outside world.

"I think most of the monsters gathered outside are below the ferocity level, so they have no hope of destroying the human village." Moreover, with this powerful girl protecting them, those little monsters outside have absolutely no chance.

“Normally it would be impossible, but this time there are too many of them, and it would be difficult for me to drive them away all at once. If any monsters sneak in, the Human Village will suffer serious losses. Therefore, I can only hide the history of the Human Village and guard this place to prevent any monsters from accidentally finding it.” Huiyin looked at the Human Village with worry. She couldn’t bring herself to kill all the invading monsters, and she couldn’t bear to watch humanity perish. So she could only ask the sage yokai Yakumo Yukari for help.

"What can I do? Surely I can't just kill all the monsters outside!"

"This gathering of monsters has a leader. Once we defeat her, the other monsters will naturally disperse. However, I must protect the village and cannot go out, so I hope you, Yufeng, can defeat her."

"The fastest rising monster in the last hundred years, it feeds on the darkness in people's hearts. The midnight monster Rumia, if you can find a way to defeat her, the remaining little monsters will naturally scatter and flee."

(The Touhou storyline will probably end this week, and I'll return to reality and officially begin writing a 3000-word chapter.)

Chapter Fifty-Seven: I Like You!

As Wu Feng emerged from the village, he wanted to slap himself. Why did he wander around aimlessly? He should have just gone home and accepted Yao Ji's comfort. Could he not be courting death every day?

Rumia, one of the famous level 9 youkai in Gensokyo, is also the first anime girl to have a truly negative encounter with Wu Feng... She is a relatively low-level youkai with a childlike appearance. Even if her strength reaches the peak of the fierce level, Wu Feng is confident that he can use some methods to make her leave the human village.

But how could Rumia, who was still young when the Great Barrier was established, appear so early! Even if time progresses, it shouldn't be 900 years earlier! She still remembers very clearly the culprit who was eaten as soon as she arrived in Gensokyo.

Assuming Rumia did appear earlier than expected, her strength at that time was at most just at the strong level. After more than a hundred years, if she is still a level 9 monster, she wouldn't be much stronger than me, so she would be relatively easy to deal with.

More likely, it's another possibility. Wu Feng had heard of a secondary setting where Rumia was a descendant of a high-ranking demon race with powerful magic. She was defeated by the previous generation of Hakurei, and after a series of tortuous and frustrating events, she and the previous generation developed a love-hate relationship before being sealed back into her childhood state.

In other words, the Rumia Wu Feng first encountered in Gensokyo was the real child. As for now, she should be the young Rumia. You believe she's a Level 9 when she can have a love-hate relationship with the previous generation? Then you'd have to be a Level 9 yourself...

After leaving the village, Wu Feng headed straight towards a certain place. It seemed that Rumia was very calm and had no intention of hiding anything. She just wanted to go towards the place with the highest demonic energy.

Before long, you could see a girl in black wandering around. She had a white long-sleeved shirt, a black long skirt, a slightly protruding chest, and a red bow tied in her hair.

Is it fortunate or unfortunate? We've already seen it through [Nagato Yuki's Glasses (Inferior)]

【Rumia】

[Fierce and powerful: Level 93]

So it seems every girl in Gensokyo is more talented than me... In 150 years, I reached the lower level of the Ferocious rank, Remi almost surpassed me in 50 years, and Kagami Light reached the middle level of the Ferocious rank. The original 9 years and 150 years have almost reached the Berserker rank, and even her height has surpassed mine...

While Wu Feng was feeling extremely depressed, Lumia also noticed a weak figure approaching her. Moreover, the figure had a familiar feel to it, and she didn't feel any sense of rejection, which made her quite curious.

Rumia moved swiftly, transforming into a black shadow and appearing before Wu Feng. She bent down, her deep red eyes filled with curiosity as she looked at Wu Feng and said, "Have we met somewhere before?"

What's with this strong sense of déjà vu?! If Earth said that, it would obviously be a flirting move.

With her big eyes and fair, supple face, Wu Feng really wanted to go up and pinch her cheeks to see who felt better, her or Remi's! But considering his own safety, he gave up on this extremely tempting idea.

We met 150 years ago.

"...I can't remember." After thinking for a moment, realizing that too much time had passed, Rumia showed a slight expression of disappointment.

"It was around here too, you were starving, and then you ate me." The way I'm saying this feels so out of place... it's hard to describe.

"...So you were the human back then. I really have to thank you. I never thought you would become an undead." Upon hearing this, Rumia quickly recalled the situation and a charming smile appeared on her pretty face.

Thinking back, it's still a bit scary. She hadn't seen any humans for a long time and was starving to death because she hadn't replenished her darkness. Just then, a human suddenly appeared in front of her. Although the food tasted good, there was very little darkness in it, so it was barely enough to tide her over. She wasn't completely full until she found a few other humans who had gone out.

Unconsciously, my favorability towards the undead in front of me increased by 1, and oh yes, my favorability towards the main world also increased by 1.

"For the sake of the fact that you've eaten me before, can I ask you a question?" Seeing that Rumia seemed to be in a good mood, Wu Feng asked directly.

"?"

"Did you bring a bunch of little monsters here to destroy the human village? Or are you opposing the monster expansion plan?"

"The monster expansion plan? What does that have to do with me? I was just hungry and came looking for food. I remember there were quite a few humans around here, but they've all disappeared today." Rumia tilted her head in confusion, puzzled by the situation around her.

"Looking for food? Are you sure?" Wu Feng asked helplessly, pointing to the demonic energy rising around them.

Rumia's answer left Wu Feng speechless. Such a huge fuss about finding food? This is what a zombie siege looks like.

"Those little monsters heard I was going here to find food, so they all followed me. I don't know why there are so many of them, and now it's like this."

The situation became clear: the monsters' expansion plan had begun, and the Human Village had become a no-hunting zone. Monsters could no longer eat people within the Human Village. Rumia's attempt to find food in the Human Village clearly caused a misunderstanding among some monsters, and the rumor spread far and wide, attracting more and more disgruntled monsters, ultimately leading to a zombie siege...

It seems that monsters also like to spread gossip, and the more they spread it, the less reliable it becomes!

"With so many monsters around, no human will appear. Why don't we go somewhere else?" Wu Feng advised. Since it was caused by gossip, once Rumia left, would the other monsters dare to stay?

"No!" Lumia rejected without hesitation.

"What if we drive away the other monsters? Maybe then some humans will appear."

"No!" Lumia continued to shake her head.

Should we continue searching?

"want"

...Okay, you win.

"Little master, Sha has a way to solve the problem~ but it will involve some risks." Just when he was considering giving up, Sha suddenly spoke in his mind.

"Sha, are you planning to trick me again? Are you sure I can leave here alive after doing this?" After hearing Sha's method, Wu Feng felt like his brain wasn't working properly. It seemed like another suicide attempt!

"No problem, as long as we prepare in advance, we can definitely escape with the effect of [Gap]," the confident voice continued.

Fine, I might as well do it one more time. I'll trust you one more time...

"Rumia!" Wu Feng suddenly stepped forward, getting close to Rumia, and shouted loudly with a determined and resolute look in his eyes.

"I like you!"

Rumia's expression froze, seemingly not quite understanding what was happening. After a long while, she finally reacted and asked, "What did you just say?"

"I like you. I've liked you ever since you ate me. Please go out with me," Wu Feng said firmly once again, though he was actually prepared to run away at any moment!

There's a saying that female youkai who are confessed to have only two choices: kill the person or marry them. It seems something strange has infiltrated. Anyway, the gap was already prepared, and the destination is the coordinates set when I first obtained the gap. It's that far away, so they shouldn't be able to catch me...
