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

"You were the one who was careless, Kidomaru..."

Amidst the smoke and dust, the young student leaped out and landed beside Qingnufang. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and looking at the frozen blood-red barrier, a hint of joy appeared in his dark eyes.

Water can penetrate all defenses, and ice can freeze everything in the world.

Once Kidomaru is swallowed by the water, the ice will be able to take away his movements.

Even before they entered, Shimizu Asahi and Aonobo had already devised this tactic.

With his cooperation with Qingnvfang, even Kidomaru has a chance of winning!

"You rest here for a bit, I'll go and take down that statue."

Although the plan succeeded, Qingnvfang did not relax. Although the attack had exhausted all her demonic power, she was confident that Kidomaru would not be able to escape.

But caution is always better than no harm; only by destroying that statue can the matter truly end.

After she finished speaking, she walked towards the statue.

The girl quickly crossed the wooden bridge and arrived in front of the ice sculpture, and just then, the sound of cracking suddenly rang out.

A huge crack appeared at the bottom of the dragon-shaped ice sculpture and spread across the entire sculpture in the blink of an eye.

"Oh no, Qingnufang, come back quickly!"

Upon seeing this, Shimizu Asahi's expression changed, and he immediately roared.

The ever-vigilant girl retreated swiftly without hesitation, but... the crimson chains pierced through the ice sculpture, shooting out and arriving before Qing Nufang in the blink of an eye...

Chapter 85, Section 87: Shikigami

The heavy sound of chains striking flesh echoed all around, crimson blood bloomed in mid-air, and the not-so-strong body was sent flying backward without any resistance.

Then, he was embedded into the stone wall.

Qingnufang lay there blankly to the side, her eyes wide open, her calm expression turning into astonishment.

Two or three seconds later, she belatedly looked at the broken stone wall.

That look of astonishment turned into panic.

"Clear water!!!"

"That's amazing! You took a direct hit from me, yet you were still able to get up... You've definitely gotten stronger, Chaoyang!"

The enormous ice sculpture crumbled, and the white-haired Asura slowly emerged from the rain of ice.

"However, you shouldn't waste your power on this guy who has no demonic power left... If you can be patient, you might still have a chance to defeat me."

"...But that's true, if you did that, you wouldn't be yourself anymore."

Kidomaru grinned.

"But how are you going to take me away now? My only friend!"

"If you, as a human, could withstand two of my attacks head-on, you wouldn't be able to stand up anymore."

'hateful!'

Hearing the arrogant words of the Son of Asura, the blue-haired girl gritted her teeth in resentment, her delicate face filled with self-reproach.

If she had been stronger, Kidomaru wouldn't have broken free of the ice so quickly, and Shimizu Asahi wouldn't have lost her last strength protecting her... If she had been more cautious and hadn't rashly smashed the statue, things wouldn't have lost their chance to turn around...

It's all her fault that things turned out this way!

Despicable! Despicable! Despicable!

However, just as if knowing that Qingnvfang would blame herself, a gentle and weak voice suddenly came from the wall.

"Don't blame yourself, Qingnufang...you did a great job...leave the rest to me..."

Kidomaru, who was laughing loudly, and Aonobo, who was blaming herself, looked over when they heard the sound, and then... their eyes widened!

Within the almost completely shattered wall, the black-haired boy, who should have been unconscious, struggled to his feet.

Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth, and his limbs were weak and feeble, like a patient who had been ill for a long time. Even standing was extremely difficult for him.

And what's most terrifying is that his chest... has caved in!

"Are you planning to... fight me with this body?"

Kidomaru frowned.

"If he had just lay down obediently, he would have died a quicker death."

"Ah...maybe...but how can I get you back if you're lying down?"

Shimizu Asahi smiled weakly, and despite his serious injuries, the determination in his eyes did not fade.

"......!?"

Hearing someone speak, the white-haired Asura was stunned for a moment, then his eyes widened in realization.

"you....."

The heartfelt words seemed to move him somewhat; his slightly open mouth appeared as if he wanted to say something, but the next moment, he closed his lips again.

"ha....."

After a slightly helpless chuckle, Kidomaru burst into wild laughter.

"I must admit, I made a mistake in befriending you. But Chaoyang! I've said it before, this is a world where the strong rule!"

"If you want to take me back, you'll have to defeat me first!"

He lowered his body and adopted an offensive stance.

"This time, I will definitely kill you!"

Beside her, the blue-haired girl who had fallen to the ground stood up again. Looking at the two people whose eyes met and were about to clash, she knew that this was a battle destined to happen.

Kidomaru remains powerful, while Shimizu Asahi is severely injured and will likely lose his life the moment they clash.

If things continue like this, Shimizu Asahi will surely perish.

Although she could save him, doing so would completely tie her to him.

That's right, the price for saving him was the rest of her life.

Although the situation is terrible, if she chooses to run away, there is still hope for her to survive... Shimizu Asahi will risk his life to create an opportunity for her.

She was quite certain of this.

In other words, this is a multiple-choice question.

Should she abandon Qingshui Chaoyang and run away alone, or give up her freedom and fight alongside him?

"Ha, this kind of question has only one answer from the very beginning..."

The girl took a step forward, dragging her tired body to the boy's side.

"Since you say the rest is up to you, then I'll leave everything to you... If I lose, I won't let you off the hook!"

"Take all my power, Asahi... You should have learned the Yin-Yang technique of borrowing the power of shikigami, right?"

......

Deep within the Ghost Realm, the palace that symbolized the power of the Ghost Realm's ruler has turned to dust.

The golden flames burned it completely.

The two demon kings of Mount Ooe stood amidst the flames, while the Asura Demon King stood a thousand meters away from them.

The battle has continued until now. After understanding the abilities of the Demon King of Asura, Ibuki-dōji and Ibaraki-dōji have firmly maintained the initiative. No matter how many times it can revive, they remain as steady as a mountain.

After all, the disparity in strength between the two sides is clearly evident.

Even after sixteen years of recuperation and nourishment from the evil god, the Asura Demon King's power had not returned to its peak. The only way for it to defeat Ibuki-dōji and Ibaraki-dōji was to exhaust their demonic power.

Before their demonic power is exhausted, it can only repeat the process of dying and then being resurrected.

"Ibuki, this can't go on forever... what should we do?"

After killing the Asura Demon King more than ten times, Cihua gradually lost interest in it.

The ability to revive no matter how much damage is done is disgusting.

Although Ibuki had previously made a bold statement, saying that she would beat it so badly that it could not be revived, the situation has not changed at all after so long, and it seems that Ibuki has no other choice.

"Hehe... Don't worry, Cihua, I've already thought of a way."

The girl smiled and comforted her best friend.

"Oh? Really? What's the method?"

The golden-haired demon king's eyes gleamed slightly.

"Well, you can just stay here and keep watch."

After keeping everyone in suspense for a moment, the girl walked towards the Asura Demon King with a light laugh.

Upon hearing this, Cihua blinked, a hint of confusion in his eyes.

Soon, the petite Ghost King, with her bare, snow-white feet, arrived a hundred meters away from the Lord of the Ghost Realm.

"Aren't we all coming at me together, Ibuki Oni-Oh? I haven't had enough fun yet!"

The Asura Demon King gently moved the chains, his expression showing some displeasure.

"There's no need for that. From now on, I can manage on my own."

Ibuki smiled charmingly.

"In truth, it was my mistake. If I had noticed it sooner, we wouldn't have wasted so much time here."

"...Why didn't I notice sooner that it was this that gave you power?"
