How did I, an Onmyoji, become the Lord of Yokai?

However, Gao did not intend to give him that chance.

She knew exactly how to secure her victory, so she charged in!

Just like in the battle against Qingnvfang, it charged recklessly towards Qingshui Chaoyang, its claws, sharp as blades, raised high, and then... swung down fiercely!

"Hahaha! You little beast, it's over. Go die clinging to your pipe dream of being a hero and saving a damsel in distress!" Chapter 47: Wounded

Beneath the vast sky, blazing crimson flames roared as a ferocious banshee, her body wreathed in flames, swung down her claws, sharp enough to cleave steel.

However, what accompanied the attack was a clear sound, like the clash of blades.

"Clang!"

The blue shield was like the strongest shield in the world, protecting the young students and the blue-haired girl behind it.

However, no matter how strong the shield is, it cannot completely block the incoming impact.

Qingshui Chaoyang involuntarily took a step back.

Then, in the next moment, flames rose up.

Crimson flames, powerful enough to consume everything, swept in from all directions, instantly engulfing the students and the monsters.

"The Water Spirit Talisman is already..."

Feeling the ever-increasing temperature, the young student subconsciously looked towards the center of the collision between the flames and the waves, but all he could see was the ever-burning flames.

His water talisman had been burned to ashes by the flames.

"This is troublesome..."

The sky has become Gao Nu's territory, and the flames will burn any strange things that appear here. Under these circumstances, no matter how many water spirit talismans he takes out, it will be of no use.

"Hehehe, you little beast, how long do you think your tortoise shell can protect you?"

Amidst hoarse, manic cries, a series of violent, singular, and erratic heavy blows landed on the shield... The tall woman perfectly unleashed the monster's instincts, burning with flames while brandishing her sharp claws.

Although Shimizu Asahi desperately wanted to distance himself from it, he was helpless against this relentless barrage of attacks... This was a difference in raw strength.

Even with each attack, Shimizu Asahi had to take a step back.

“…”

The young student gritted his teeth and remained silent.

The situation is not entirely hopeless; he still has some spiritual energy left. If given the chance... as long as he can find an opportunity, he can turn the tide of the battle!

While retreating, he looked for an opportunity, throwing himself into the battle like a venomous snake.

"boom!!"

Another heavy blow struck, and the young student instinctively retreated—but then, a fair, delicate hand suddenly pressed against his back.

A slender, soft arm stopped him from retreating, and then the surrounding temperature suddenly began to drop.

"This is....."

Shimizu Asahi subconsciously looked back, and then, his black eyes and pale yellow pupils met.

"I'll lend you my demonic power!"

The blue-haired girl's cool voice echoed in his ears.

“…”

Perhaps because it was so sudden, Shimizu Asahi didn't react for a moment, but the next second, he smiled.

"please!"

As soon as he finished speaking, icy demonic power flowed along the girl's slender arms and wrapped around his body.

Humans and demons are two different kinds of beings. Demonic power entering the human body will inevitably cause harm to the human body. Even a great Onmyoji would not want demonic power to enter the body.

Therefore, Qing Nufang could only choose to wrap her demonic power around Qing Shui Chaoyang. Although this method would damage the skin tissue, it would not harm the internal organs.

However, in doing so, the yokai must make contact with the onmyoji.

In other words, entrusting your back to a monster!

Feeling the icy demonic energy on the surface of his body, Shimizu Asahi took a deep breath, and then... his remaining spiritual energy flowed out!

Demonic power and spiritual power intertwined, and the originally hostile forces were now like brothers, without any barriers between them.

Seeing such 'obedient' power, he, who had been holding back and waiting for an opportunity, decided to make his move now!

He's sure to win now!

With absolute confidence, Shimizu Asahi dispelled the shield protecting them.

Seeing the blue shield disappear, the tall woman was slightly taken aback, but the next second, she swung down her claws wrapped in flames.

"Even with this method, you are no match for me! Grab yourselves and die, you little beasts!"

Facing the raging flames, Shimizu Asahi took a step forward.

Then, in the next moment, a chill was released—a terrifying chill like a storm swept out, and in just an instant, all the surrounding flames were frozen!

The crimson world transformed into an icy blue world... just like wiping away a layer of dust, the change happened in an instant!

"!?"

The banshee's eyes widened uncontrollably as she stared at her frozen arm, her expression one of utter disbelief.

"H-How could this be...? My fire actually...?!"

"It's over, monster."

As the calm yet icy voice of the young student rang out, countless ice blades appeared in the sky, which resembled a frozen world.

The gleaming ice blade was aimed at the distraught banshee, and in that instant, she felt death.

"Wait, no, no!?"

Its instinct for survival brought it back to its senses from the shock. Realizing that it had no hope of winning, it decisively chose to beg for mercy.

But what responded to it were those icy blades that exuded a chilling aura.

The sound of sharp blades piercing flesh rang out continuously, and almost instantly, the tall woman turned into a hedgehog.

Those ice blades tore through its flesh without mercy!

"How...how could this be!?"

Feeling the life force constantly draining from her body, the banshee showed unprecedented panic and fear. She didn't want to die, she didn't want to die!

However, with its heart pierced, it no longer had the right to live; no matter how much it struggled, it was all in vain.

Before it closed its eyes completely, it heard these words...

"Go to hell and apologize to the villagers you killed!"

"..."

"..."

Looking at the lifeless corpse before him, the young student breathed a long sigh of relief.

We finally won.

As Gao Nushi died, the cold demonic power that had been clinging to him slowly dissipated.

As he turned around, Qingshui Chaoyang thanked the blue-haired girl. But as soon as he turned, the girl's soft, fragrant body collapsed into his arms.

"Wait, hey!? Are you alright?"

Upon seeing this, Shimizu Asahi immediately panicked. He caught the girl's soft body and shouted loudly.

But it was at this moment that he saw the crimson color hidden beneath the ice.

"This is... a very serious injury!"

"We need to get treatment as soon as possible."

The young student did not hesitate to treat Qingnvfang, but because her injuries were too severe, his treatment could only slow down the loss of blood.

After receiving emergency treatment, Qingnvfang's wounds improved somewhat.

However, if not bandaged promptly, the situation will deteriorate rapidly.

Without much hesitation, the young student decisively carried her away. (Chapter 48: I Hate Humans)

In the quiet and still room, Qingnufang lay peacefully on the bed.

With her eyes closed, her alluring red lips opened and closed gently, just like Sleeping Beauty in a fairy tale.

Suddenly, the quiet room was broken by groans.

"Ugh... my head hurts so much."

A slightly painful groan escaped her lips, and then her tightly closed eyes slowly opened.

"Where am I?

Looking at the unfamiliar ceiling that came into view, Qingnvfang couldn't help but ask herself this question.

She remembered that she was fighting the tall woman before she lost consciousness, but her injuries were too severe to continue, so she was forced to transfer her demonic power to the Onmyoji...

"I'm still alive, so it seems he won..."

Because he squandered all his demonic power in an instant, she didn't get to see the moment when Gao Nu died completely.

However, after realizing this, Qingnvfang breathed a small sigh of relief.

At least, she's safe now.

"You're awake."

Just then, a voice filled with a hint of joy suddenly entered her ears.

Looking in the direction from which the sound came, Qingnufang saw a young man carrying a wooden bowl and wearing a wet-drying garment.

Upon seeing that she had woken up, he immediately placed the wooden bowl on the wooden table and quickly walked to her side.

Those dark eyes looked at her carefully, then breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Your complexion is much better; it seems you're recovering quite well."
