With a ripple in that body, Isayama Yomi was sucked in, and her soul was finally returned to its place. However, Tsuchimiya Kagura's soul also trembled, and then Senju watched speechlessly as a part of her soul was torn off, turning into a faint trace of Isayama Yomi's soul, which then flew into the other body.

"Ah, really, has a part of her soul been entrusted to someone else? No wonder Isayama Yomi's soul seemed so pure. I thought it had been worn down by that place," Senju shook her head, looking at Tsuchimiya Kagura as she slowly collapsed with vacant eyes. Nimura Kensuke, who was next to her, quickly hugged her, "Kagura, what's wrong?!"

"It's nothing, it just left as a guardian spirit. Its soul was injured just now," Senju shook his head. This injury was quite new, seemingly caused by his tearing apart the shikigami earlier. He pressed his fingers on Tsuchimiya Kagura's forehead. "Don't worry, it's very easy to heal. Return to the Path Thirty-Nine: Reversing Heaven and Returning to the Soul!"

Instantly, Kagura Tsuchimiya's pained expression calmed down, but at that moment a scream came from the side. Senju turned her head and saw that the flower sea that formed Yomi Isayama was there, clutching her head and screaming loudly, "No, I didn't do this!"

Senju glanced at it and realized that it was a conflict between two parts of the soul. The soul in the underworld had lost most of its parts except for its love for Kagura, and its memories were also ambiguous. The fragments in Kagura, on the other hand, clearly remembered what happened back then. They even received Kagura's painful prayers over the years, which made her recall her painful yet sweet memories from the past.

"Seriously, isn't this a loss?" Senju shook her head in distress, then waved her hand, and a beam of light enveloped Izayama Yomi over there. She quickly stabilized, but looking at Tsuchimiya Kagura on this side, she felt a mix of emotion and guilt. "Kagura, you've suffered so much these past years, I..."

“It’s alright, sister, it’s all over now,” Kagura stood up again and smiled sweetly at Yomi. “Yomi-neechan, it’s so good that you’re back.”

They seem to have painful memories, but even so, Kagura is willing to save and accept Yomi. Looking at Yomi, who is smiling through her tears, Senju shrugs, "Alright, now that everything is resolved, please leave this place. I need to awaken the yokai here."

“Yes, where are the demons?” Kagura, who had been laughing, suddenly lowered her head, then flashed behind Senju, giving her a backstab. “Thank you for reviving Yomi-nee, but as an exorcist, now this matter…”

"..." Senju turned her head to look behind her, her expression full of helplessness. Was this supposed to be a righteous demon exorcist? Even a seemingly harmless girl was so ruthless and cold-blooded! However, Senju couldn't really blame her, since Senju now seemed to be the black hand that was about to stir up chaos.

The girl who had backstabbed Senju was dumbfounded. The weapon in her hand was a special magical artifact, capable of killing even the evil spirit Isayama Yomi in one strike. Yet, it hadn't even pierced her clothes. Senju rolled her eyes. "Do you want to die?"

Kagura Tsuchimiya immediately opened her mouth

Fire burst forth from her, and she jumped back, casually blocking the attack. Only then did Senju notice that she was holding a peculiar short sword, which contained a magic array for exorcising evil spirits. Unfortunately, it was of no use to Senju.

Kensuke Nimura also looked at Senju warily. Senju shook his head, his hand emitting light as he pointed it at them. "What a nuisance. I'll seal your memories for a few days."

"Stop!" Izayama Yomi attacked from behind, but Senju easily dodged her unarmed attack. Then, the light emanating from Senju's hand illuminated the three of them. "Forget everything that just happened. No, that's too easy on you!"

Chapter 1424 World Will

With a flick of his wrist, he froze the three of them. Senju looked at their varying expressions and said, "What should I do with you? Hmm, don't worry, I won't kill you. After all, I borrowed your things. And I won't kill her either, since she was only recently resurrected."

Although only their eyes could move, Senju saw them breathe a sigh of relief, but then sneered, "Hmph, but there are things worse than death. I remember this sword is called Lion King, right?"

Senju picked up the broken sword from the side and smiled at Tsuchimiya Kagura, "Then, let's use something good to reforge it. Let's use your feelings. Your feelings seem very good. The reforged sword will definitely be very strong."

"!" The three of them looked shocked. Senju tapped Tsuchimiya Kagura's forehead and extracted her love and memories of Isayama Yomi. The twists and turns in between surprised Senju. It was a wonderful story, from loving sisters to enemies who loved and hated each other.

However, here, Senju also glimpsed a part of the country's exorcism organization. It turns out that these three are all professional exorcists. However, during an exorcism, Isayama Yomi was paralyzed in her whole body and hands, and was abandoned by everyone. Then, she was cured by someone using the Sessho-seki.

However, after being cured, Isayama Yomi had already become an evil spirit. After becoming an evil spirit, she killed many people, including relatives, colleagues, and friends, and was finally killed by Tsuchimiya Kagura, who had made up her mind.

“Not bad memories,” Senju threw the ball of light toward the broken sword, which was immediately repaired. However, the shikigami that was originally inside the sword had now dissipated, but Senju didn’t care. Instead, he looked at Isayama Yomi and said, “This sword contains Tsuchimiya Kagura’s feelings and memories for you. If you don’t make her fall in love with you again within seven days, this Lion King sword will break again, and all her feelings will disappear.”

“Only if you win her over within seven days can she regain all her feelings,” Senju said with a wicked smile, and he saw despair in Isayama Yomi’s eyes. “But don’t worry, there are rewards for this game. I will advance a portion of it, and your identity will be reset. No one will think you are Isayama Yomi.”

"After you successfully conquer her, those who died because of you will be resurrected, and you can continue to be with her," Senju said with a fake smile, tapping her head. A faint causal relationship was altered, and then the three of them were released from their restraints.

"Go," Senju shoved the sword into Isayama Yomi's hands, then ignored the three women with their varying expressions and teleported them back. "Hmph, you have to pay the price for doing that kind of thing. I'd love to see how many dark secrets you can create!"

Actually, what I just said was just Senju's way of tricking Isayama Yomi. If we wait seven days, the sword will break again, and the emotions and memories inside will return. However, the alteration of Isayama Yomi's karma will also disappear, and her true form will be exposed. At that time, Senju really doesn't care what happens.

But if she really succeeds in winning over the girl, the altered cause and effect will become a reality. I sincerely wish her success. When that happens, I'll get a great video, which will definitely be very interesting.

After seeing them off, Senju looked towards the mansion. The memories inside had been almost completely reset, so it seemed the show could continue. However, the fact that Hagoromo Gitsune and his gang of yokai still wanted to eat human hearts annoyed Senju. If it weren't for attracting similar yokai, even with the push of the world's consciousness, Senju wouldn't have done this.

However, he read a message from the world's consciousness: as the number of humans increases, the hatred for man-eating monsters grows stronger, finally triggering this calamity of exterminating monsters. Almost all the man-eating monsters in Japan will be attracted here. On the other side is the allied forces of the Nura Clan and Onmyoji, with the national exorcism agencies behind them. However, the gods may be standing by and watching.

After all, the world's consciousness still wants to eliminate a huge pool of demonic energy in Kyoto. It's a collection of cursed resentment left behind by Hagoromo Gitsune four hundred years ago after devouring countless humans. It's extremely poisonous to gods; even a little bit of it would mean being killed by the curse!

"I wonder how many demons she summoned," Senju said with a hint of curiosity, tapping Hagoromo Gitsune's head. Following her demonic aura, Senju sensed the auras of demons who had submitted to her, but why were there so few? Only a mere few dozen? Isn't that ridiculous?!

Speechless, Senju had to do another calculation before realizing that the monsters summoned by Hagoromo Gitsune had already submitted to Nue and been taken to the underworld. Fortunately, more monsters were on their way, otherwise it would have been a real farce. "You have a road to heaven but you refuse to take it; you have no gate to hell but you barge in!"

In the human world, even a thousand hands wouldn't be enough to make a move.

However, he has created a force in Hell. With a thought from Senju, countless Shinigami in the city called 'Soul Society' received a message. The cloned Captain-Commander tapped his cane, "Shinigami, assemble! We're going to slay the cannibalistic monsters!"

This operation mobilized five teams and ten thousand Shinigami, nearly half of the Soul Society's power, which should be enough to crush them. In any case, Senju has attached a bit of his consciousness to the Captain-Commander, so if Nue reappears, Senju will crush him completely.

However, given the Captain-Commander's strength, perhaps Senju won't even need to intervene. Ryujin Jakka is incredibly powerful, and Senju has imbued a portion of the sun's power within him. Hopefully, Hell won't be completely burned away.

Seeing the rising demonic clouds, Senju shook his head and left. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to resist killing these monsters.

Well, Senju, who left this place, also knew that there were good and evil yokai, but he was afraid that if he saw too many evil yokai, he would kill all the yokai and find a place to relax.

However, looking at the moon in the sky, Senju thought for a moment and found a place to go to sleep. But speaking of which, there are so many monsters here. There are many huge little monsters flying in the air. Of course, the little monsters that Senju is talking about are low-level monsters. Although these monsters are large, they do not have much initiative. They are like natural phenomena and do not pose much harm to humans.

Senju found the largest, furry monster on the dragon, lay down on it, and went to sleep. The monster didn't seem to notice and continued to float around. The other monsters flying around didn't notice Senju's presence either, as if there was nothing there. Before long, Senju fell asleep and didn't open his eyes until dawn!

Chapter 1425 The Remaining Monsters

Upon waking up, Senju stretched and looked around. He was in a forest. It seemed that the monster from last night was still lurking. However, there were quite a few monsters in this forest. Although they were small, they were all wearing kimonos and were happily chasing and playing around. Senju wanted to complain a bit. The monsters' styles were too varied!

However, the monsters here don't have much 'fear' and are basically powerless. They are the lowest level of wandering monsters, and there are basically a bunch of them in every forest here.

However, to be precise, even Natto-kun before his evolution was stronger than them! They aren't the kind of yokai that worship cannibals, since those have already gone to join 'Hagoromo-Gitsune'. They simply exist in accordance with the laws of nature and won't attack towns, but if humans come to their territory, they don't mind having an extra meal!

"Ah, there's a human here! Why is he here? Won't he catch a cold? How about we make him a snack with our drinks?" As Senju woke up, the non-existent state on his body disappeared, and the monsters that had been playing around gathered around. However, they thought Senju couldn't see them. A monster with a normal human body and a head that looked like a hippopotamus was holding a tree branch and trying to poke Senju.

Senju pretended not to see anything, suddenly stood up, and the small monsters around him scattered in fright. Taking a deep breath, Senju slapped the tree where one of the monsters was hiding, and a deep palm print immediately appeared on the tree. The monster next to the tree looked at the hand that was only a few centimeters away from it, heard the loud noise, screamed in fright, and then quickly ran away.

However, this didn't scare the monsters. They were still watching intently, whispering amongst themselves. Senju stretched his limbs out of boredom, watching the trees swaying around him and feeling the ripples from the ground. Finally, he uprooted a large tree, and a whirlwind swept up the monsters. "Help! There's a monster!!"

"Phew~" Senju, who had done all this purely with his physical strength, let out a breath and then replanted the tree in his hand back into the ground. The surrounding forest looked as if it had been ravaged by a tornado, with all the trees leaning to one side. Senju thought for a moment and then went over to prop up the tree.

He's quite active now after moving around a bit, but it's a pity the monsters here are too weak. Otherwise, it would be good to beat them up. Although Senju has already beaten them up, they all ran away in fright.

While wandering aimlessly through the forest, Senju came to a riverbank. The riverbank wasn't a sandy beach, but rather covered with many stones. After thinking for a moment, Senju decided to fish there.

While Senju was fishing, monsters gathered in the forest behind him again. They really haven't learned their lesson. However, there were quite a few humanoid monsters among them. But these monsters seemed extremely bored, and they were forcefully watching Senju.

But a monster is a monster. A purple-clad female monster with a pipe swaggered up behind Senju, raised her leg, and tried to kick Senju into the river. Senju manipulated the buoy to sink a little, then suddenly stood up and took a step back. "You've taken the bait!"

"Pfft~" The monster behind was sent flying dozens of meters by Senju's impact, while Senju, who was holding the fish, looked behind him with a puzzled expression. "Strange, was there something just now?"

The monsters behind them were all lying on the ground, covering their mouths, too afraid to make a sound. The monster that had been knocked away stared blankly at the leaves, wondering, "Who am I? Where am I?"

Meanwhile, Senju was setting up a stone ring for a barbecue. Then he went to the nearby woods to collect some firewood, pulled up a tree, and then used a hand chop...

It was cut into pieces, and the monsters nearby were trembling with fear.

However, the firewood was very damp. Senju arranged it in the fire one by one, while the surrounding demons watched as he started the fire. Then, Senju took out a small pot from his robes, and the demons sniffed, "Sake, is this sake?"

Unfortunately, what Senju took out was alcohol. By the way, what's the name of a spirit that drinks alcohol? Are there spirits that drink alcohol?! After pouring a little on the firewood, Senju took out a piece of paper and a lighter and lit the pile of firewood. The firewood that was originally impossible to burn suddenly burst into flames. However, the female spirit that had been knocked far away came back up. She actually tried to put out the fire with river water.

"..." Senju couldn't hold back any longer and kicked her into the river. "Damn it, I've been putting up with you for a while now, and there are a few fish thieves too! You'd better clean up the fish properly!"

"Wow! He can see us!" The monsters scattered in fright, only to be pulled back by Senju's fishing line. "Just grill the fish for me obediently! And I won't punish you!"

"Can't you bake it yourself?!" The bull-headed demon had inadvertently revealed Senju's thoughts, and was then spun around dozens of times by Senju's silk threads. After witnessing this tragic scene, the other demons became much more obedient.

After Senju released the fishing line, they cautiously approached. A demon with a single eye, a single horn, and a small mustache looked at Senju with a fawning expression, "Um, sir, are you perhaps the legendary, all-powerful Tsuchigumo-sama?!"

"Don't assume that just because they can use silk and are good at fighting, they're all earth spiders!" Senju thought to herself. "Earth spiders? Grilled spiders taste pretty good, and you guys look pretty good too."

"Whoa!!!" the monsters shouted, preparing to run away, but Senju shook his head and pulled them back. "By the way, where is this? What are you all doing gathered here?"

"This is Hachihara, we've come to watch your antics," the minotaur shouted, then was tapped on the head by the one-eyed, one-horned demon, who then pressed his head down and spoke to Senju, "What nonsense are you spouting! My lord, this is Hachihara, we are all kind demons, we're not tasty at all!"

“Yes, I know,” Senju nodded, looking at the circle of monsters around him. “Otherwise, I would have killed you all and turned you into dried goods.”

"..." The monsters chuckled dryly, sweat pouring down their faces. Senju clapped his hands. "Alright, hurry up and grill the fish for me."

“One fish isn’t enough,” the Minotaur grumbled. Thousand Hands nodded, looking at the surrounding monsters. “Why don’t you go catch a couple more?”

"I can't swim," the whispers of the yokai made Senju utterly speechless. Where did these useless yokai come from?! Senju helplessly slapped the ground, and a dozen or so water columns sprang up from the river, from which fish flew out. Upon seeing this, the yokai actually clapped and cheered, "Oh, how amazing! Fish are flying!"

Chapter 1426 Fat Cat

"..." Senju suddenly felt like she was performing "flowers, birds, wind and moon", the kind of banquet skill that Aqua often used, the kind where water jets come out of fans. So Senju performed an even better skill for them: the fish jumped up and used their tails to slap the faces of the monsters.

The monster, slapped in the face by the fish tail, looked even more foolish. Senju rolled his eyes, thinking, "Don't underestimate them just because they look stupid. You'll suffer a great loss if you do. After all, they are monsters too, and they have no remorse when it comes to eating people."

Although these monsters do not rely on 'fear' to exist, but are born naturally and do not even have the power to be seen by ordinary people, they are still ruthless when they strike. After all, they have no concept of good and evil, and when they play pranks, they can really kill people!

"Hurry up and grill the fish!" Senju tapped a nearby stone with a stick, and only then did the other monsters, who had been slapped in the face by fish tails, realize what was happening and run to the river to process the fish.

Thousand Hands kept changing the perspective. In the eyes of ordinary people, they didn't exist at all. It was just a fish being suddenly killed in mid-air. It was like a horror movie.

Switching perspectives, Senju finally saw them bustling about. She couldn't help but marvel at the variety of yokai here: yokai that rely on fear to gain power and build organizations; yokai that come from the other world and devour souls; yomu that come from another world and grow based on emotions; and yokai born from nature, free and without any sense of good or evil.

These are deadly dangers for ordinary people, but in this world, humans have an absolute advantage. These powerful monsters are almost becoming protected species. Senju doesn't know what to say.

Well, it's none of his business anyway. After watching them clean the fish, Senju skewered it onto a stick and started grilling it. "Alright, that's enough. You can go now."

“Hey, at least leave us some to eat,” the minotaur blurted out. His one-horned, one-eyed brother tapped him on the head, then made him bow. “We’ll leave right away!”

Watching them leave, Senju slowly grilled the fish. Although it wasn't grilled very well, it was still cooked through. After cutting off the burnt parts, Senju took a bite and said, "This is awful..."

Well, to put it simply, it was awful. Qian Shou frowned, looking at the fish in his hand. Indeed, cooking skills are truly a matter of...

Humans are hard to understand, and of course, humans are even harder to understand. They were content with just having food back then, but now they're pursuing even better experiences. That's probably where humans surpass yokai. Meanwhile, the yokai that Senju released are now carefree, chasing butterflies.

With a wave of his hand, the grilled fish next to him turned into fragrant boneless fried fish. Senju ate it slowly, but when he was eating his second one, a strangely shaped 'cat' ran out of the forest. Judging from its size, Senju almost mistook it for a pig. Its body was a mixture of orange, gray, and white, but the colors were quite symmetrical.

This pig—no, this cat—pounced on the grilled fish right away. Senju teased it with the fish, and a boy's voice echoed from the forest, "Nyanko-sensei, don't run around!"

"So it's you," Senju said, looking at the fat cat beside him. His eyes twitched. This was also a yokai, and a sealed one at that, but now it was just a fat cat. Senju pinched the scruff of its neck. "Giant, want some fish?"

"Who's Gian?!" the cat yelled, then quickly covered its mouth with its paw, its eyes darting around. But a moment later, it was drawn in by the aroma of grilled fish, drool dripping from its mouth. It tilted its head and glanced at Senju, "Meow~"

"Uh..." Senju felt a chill. Was the other party trying to be cute? But for a little pig, no, a strange cat, to do this only made people shudder. Senju looked at the forest to the side, "Is that your master over there? The spiritual energy is really strong."

"Who's the master?! That's my subordinate!" the fat cat shouted, then, seeing Senju's calm reaction, it squinted at him. "Hmm? Looks like you're no ordinary person, kid. You're unlucky to have met me. Hand over the grilled fish, and I won't eat you!"

"Heh, I just remembered a joke," Senju put down the grilled fish, then took out a short knife and brandished it at the fat cat. "I heard that cats make shamisen. Tell me, how many three-colored ones can you make?"

"How would I know about that?! Let me go!" The fat cat struggled desperately, then realized he couldn't break free. His voice suddenly turned low, "Kid, you've angered me! What?!"

Seeing that the other party was about to transform, Senju suppressed the other party's demonic power. After struggling there for a while, it realized that it was still a fat cat and fell into deep self-doubt.

"Ah, found you, Nyanko-sensei. It's not good to run around like that." A blond-haired boy emerged from the jungle. Senju felt that his voice was very familiar, somewhat like Yato's, but this boy's voice was more subtle, or rather, gentle.

But then he saw the knife in Senju's hand and quickly ran over to apologize, "I'm sorry, this is my cat. I'm sorry for the trouble, but please let him go!"

"Is this Gian yours?" Senju nudged the fat cat, who then reacted. "Who's Gian? Call me Nyanko-sensei!"

"Nyanko-sensei!" the boy next to him shouted, then looked at Senju warily. Seeing that Senju didn't seem surprised at all, he was the one who was surprised. "Um, this..."

"Don't mind it," Senju patted the fat cat's face with the flat of his knife. "It's quite rare to have a talking cat. Let's roast it and eat it!"

"No!" the boy shouted, while the fat cat struggled desperately. "Let me go! I don't taste good at all!"

“Oh, it looks like it, too much fat,” Senju shook the fat cat and tossed it aside. The boy next to her asked timidly, “Um, aren’t you surprised?”

“Hmm, not surprised at all,” Senju nodded, looking at the fat cat that was baring its teeth and claws. “There are so many talking animals, the only thing that surprises me is how you raised it to be so fat? It must have too much fat!”
