Mei cried out in pain and rubbed her red forehead in grievance.
But Douya suddenly came closer, "So Mei thinks... I look like I'm out fooling around?"
Mei nodded, then shook her head, lowered her eyes and said dejectedly, "It's all because Mei's figure is not good enough, her face is not pretty enough, I can't satisfy you...ah"
The girl was picked up by Douya around the waist and lay in the boudoir the next second.
It is snowing heavily outside and people are full of evil. Only the considerate and beautiful girl can warm their hearts.
Inside the castle tower, Grand Chancellor Lingyue Fairy and Grand Chancellor Miko Cuizi were sitting opposite each other.
As the aroma of tea wafted in the air, their eyes met and then disappeared.
But then they all frowned in unison and cursed inwardly a certain licentious and immoral dog.
Big monsters are no longer ordinary people. Unless they are of the same level and deliberately hidden or isolated by barriers, it is difficult for them to hide any movement in the surrounding area from their eyes and ears.
Putting aside her dissatisfaction with Dou Ya for the moment, Ling Yue looked at the gentle and graceful witch and said, "Thank you, Grand Marshal, for taking charge of the affairs of the Nine Provinces."
"It's my job, no need to thank me."
Cui Zi replied calmly, and then mentioned the reason for their meeting.
"The spatial rift in Jiuzhou is getting bigger and bigger. If nothing unexpected happens, it will form a gate between the two worlds. How will the royal court treat the people from other lands then?"
Ling Yue replied, "According to our king's thinking, it is natural that if you follow the will, you will live, and if you go against it, you will die."
A gleam of light flashed in her golden eyes. She had predicted the visitor from another world a few days ago. Although he was powerful, he was still weak in front of the Lord of the Royal Court.
Cui Zi, who was unaware of this, had a worried look in her eyes. "Will such overbearing behavior bring hidden dangers to the nascent royal court?"
"Peace of mind."
Ling Yue said slowly, "All our worries are caused by our lack of strength. As long as we are strong, the world will operate according to the will of the royal court."
"That being said, being too forceful will cause the other party to harbor resentment and resort to resistance, even if they have no ill intentions."
Cui Zi, who was born in troubled times, naturally knew that force could solve most problems, but for some problems, taking direct violent measures was against her nature.
Ling Yue, who understood this, had no interest in becoming a psychological counselor. She bluntly said, "The strong prey on the weak, and only the fittest survive."
"A group of outsiders came to our homeland to seek a living. They either obey the rule of the royal court or leave."
"This is a national policy that cannot be changed!"
Faced with such words from the Grand Tutor, Cui Zi also fell silent.
She let out a long breath and was about to speak when she heard Ling Yue change the subject, "Come to think of it, you haven't been eaten by Douya yet?"
"Eat, eat it?!"
Cuizi's face flushed, and she swallowed the words that were about to come out of her throat. She said in shame and anger, "Grand Minister, stop talking nonsense. The king and I..."
Under Ling Yue's mischievous gaze, Cui Zi did not say the famous quote that only a blonde loser would say.
She stared at Ling Yue deeply, her chest heaving, and then she waved her sleeves and left.
(The annoying witch finally left.)
Ling Yue picked up the teacup and took a sip. After putting the cup down, she put her hands into her sleeves and looked at the bright moon outside the window with a calm expression.
The witch's strength is the pillar of the royal court. She doesn't want to make her relationship with her too stiff, but she really can't get along with Cui Zi.
This is an idealistic person who is mentally prepared to give everything for his ideal.
Ling Yue admires people like this very much.
But those clear and bright eyes always looked at everyone inside and outside the royal court equally, which was very annoying.
(I hope Douya can teach her a lesson, so that the dignified Grand Chancellor of the Royal Court won’t be so kind every day.)
Ling Yue touched her belly, a soft light appearing in her eyes.
She murmured softly, "Don't try to imitate your father. He's a truly bad dog."
………………
Kinki, Kyoto.
The heavy snow fell like cotton wool and feathers, covering the eaves and brackets of the royal city.
The vermilion palace walls stand out even more against the plain white, like bloodstains condensed on a snowy blade.
Looking at the city tower from afar, the double-eaved hip roof is covered with snow, like a giant dragon squatting, which looks even more majestic in the vast sky and earth.
The moat had long been frozen, and the mirror-like ice reflected the towering city walls.
A group of feathered foxes dressed in luxurious black, with a face as cold and beautiful as an ice sculpture and a smile on their lips, strolled in the snow-white palace.
Behind him was a pet, with chains wrapped around its pale neck.
When the feathered fox stopped to look at the moon, it immediately touched the ground with its forehead, letting the snowflakes fall all over its back, and even its breathing became extremely light.
Like a tamed delicate object, even its shadow curled up obediently in the shadow cast by its owner's clothes.
Nohime walked over with small steps, holding a crystal clear magatama in her hand.
"Lord Yuyi Fox, the Dog Tribe's royal court has sent another message. Do you want to return?"
"No need."
Yuyi Fox looked up at the gray sky. Snow flakes fell silently and landed on her shoulders with the wind. Her voice was as cold as ice.
"Just do our own thing, and the rest...is not worth mentioning."
Nohime nodded slightly, a faint fragrance wafting from her sleeves, and continued.
"The remaining twelve generals have all been slain, but Azure Dragon and Suzaku fought back before their death, while Tengu and Kairota... have not been able to return."
Yuyi Fox was silent for a moment, the corners of her lips raised slightly, but the smile did not reach her eyes. "Life and death are but an illusion. When my utopia arrives, everything will be perfect."
Yuyuko suddenly reached out and caught a falling snowflake.
The crystal ice slowly melted in her warm palm, turning into a drop of icy water.
She lowered her eyes and stared for a moment, then gently turned her fingertips, allowing the cold water droplets to drip onto the back of the person behind her.
The pet trembled all over, but still kept its body down, not daring to dodge at all.
The icy snow water slid down his spine, stinging his skin and causing shivers.
The chains jingled slightly, he clenched his teeth, and even suppressed his breathing, as if even the pain had become a transgression that he had to restrain.
"The ceremony is about to begin, go down and prepare..." The voice stopped abruptly.
Yuyokuni suddenly turned around, his eyes like blades, piercing straight into the depths of the corridor.
In the snow, a slender figure walked slowly, his golden hair pouring down like the scorching sun, shining brightly against the snow.
The man walked calmly, holding his pipe in one hand, strolling leisurely in the garden, but he made people feel like they were facing a great enemy - a big monster, Nurarihyon!
Nohime's expression was tense as she stood in front of Yuyuko. Demonic power surged in her sleeves, and even the snowflakes falling around her froze in mid-air.
"call--"
Nurarihyon leisurely blew out a string of smoke rings, and the bluish-white smoke dispersed in the cold wind.
His golden eyes narrowed, and his gaze lightly swept over the human pet kneeling on the ground. He ignored Nouji's vigilance and went straight into Yuyuko's cold eyes.
"The outside world is in turmoil, yet Your Excellency Yuyokuni seems quite elegant, enjoying the scenery in this snowy garden." His tone was lazy, but every word was sharp, "But..."
He paused for a moment, then raised his hand. His wide sleeves slipped down, revealing a hideous burn mark on his palm—as if it had been branded by flames, still faintly glowing red.
"One of the three sacred weapons of the Emperor - the Murasaki Sword of Heaven, is indeed worthy of its reputation." He sighed with a smile, his fingertips gently stroking the scar, but a sharp flash in his eyes.
"You bastard—!" Nouji shouted angrily, "How dare you trespass on the altar of the Three Sacred Artifacts?!"
"Okay, Nohime." Yuyuko interrupted the frightened Nohime, and was not angry at what Nurarihyon did.
If the sword of Ame no Murakumo could be taken away by any great monster, she would not have to go through so much trouble to wait until now.
"I lost my composure, Lord Yugyoko." Nohime took two steps back, her eyes still fixed on the shameless Nurarihyon.
There was not even a trace of his footprints left behind him - as if he was just a dream on this snowy day.
Yuyokuni slowly raised her eyes, the shadow of the Nine-Tailed Fox silently surged behind her, and the demonic aura spread like a tide.
"Slippery ghost." Her voice was cold to the bone, "You don't need to covet the Congyun Sword."
"Something that doesn't belong to you—"
"Eternity will never belong to you."
The smile on Nurarihyon's face gradually froze. A cold wind blew past, and the pipe between his fingers went out silently, and a wisp of smoke dissipated.
"Hayuko, aren't you afraid that I'll spread the news about the Murasaki Sword and ruin all your plans?"
The Naughty Ghost threatened in a deep voice, "There are still many powerful monsters in the world who are interested in the Congyun Sword!"
Yuyuko glanced at him lightly, and when he turned around, a scornful arc appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"what ever."
Those two light words were like a sharp sword piercing Nurarihyon's chest.
He stood there in a daze, looking at the figure walking away, a rare trace of confusion appearing in his golden eyes.
The snow fell silently on his shoulders and melted away quietly.
The barking of the family dog in the distance broke the stagnant silence.
The cunning ghost looked down at the burn marks on his palm and suddenly chuckled, but there was a hint of self-mockery in his laughter. His figure disappeared on the spot like ink melting into water.
"Lady Yuyuko, is this okay?" Nohime followed closely behind the black-clad beauty, her voice very low, unable to hide her worry.
"It's rumored that Nura has Crow Tengu from Kurama Mountain following him."
Nohime paused. "That great demon known as 'Yatagushi' is not only extremely powerful, but is also rumored to be able to glimpse fragments of the future. If he really becomes Nura's ally..."
"It's just a giant crow that can only appear at sunrise and whose strength is barely noticeable. It's not worth mentioning."
Yuyuko spoke indifferently, her fingertips lightly stroking the dark patterns on her sleeves, as if she was talking about a trivial matter.
"If they really had the courage to openly lead hundreds of demons to break through the gates of Kyoto—"
The corners of her lips curled up slightly, "I would rather look up to them a little more."
"Now you only dare to play some devilish tricks in the dark." A hint of sneer flashed in Yuyi's eyes, and his voice was like an ice blade cutting through glass.
