"What else?" Luo Bai asked curiously.

"Otherwise, I will make you regret it!"

"Now that you mention it, I actually want to give it a try. I've never experienced the feeling of regret before."

"you!"

"Okay, okay, I was just kidding. Am I so terrible in your eyes? Why would you attack me..." Luo Bai waved his hand.

Is he the kind of guy who can't control his lower body when he sees a beautiful girl?

How can it be!

Yakumo Yukari didn't buy his trick at all.

"Do you need us to help you count how many are related to you?"

"That's not necessary."

"You really..." Yakumo Yukari's face changed. She was about to say something, but she saw Luo Bai stretched out his finger and pointed at her, and her figure disappeared instantly.

"It's still this fast." Luo Bai breathed a sigh of relief.

"Bai, is Zi okay?" Youyuko looked worriedly at the place where Yakumo Zi disappeared.

"Don't worry, we've sent her on a trip for a while, probably a day or so. She might be back before we need her again, so there won't be any problem."

"Is that so..." Youyouzi smiled awkwardly, but did not mention the conversation between the two just now.

"Okay, now that the unnecessary things have been dealt with, it's time to talk about your business." Luo Bai's figure flashed and he came to Youyouzi's room and sat on the chair by the window.

"Well, go ahead." Youyouzi responded seriously.

"Very good, in that case, I won't say any more.

You have two questions here, one is about the Journey to the West monster, and the other is about your ability. Which one do you want to hear first?"

"Then... let's listen to the Journey to the West first." Youyouzi hesitated for a moment and quickly made a decision.

Compared to her own abilities, she was more worried about the Journey to the West monster.

"Yes." Luo Bai nodded gently. "The Westward Journey Demon's consciousness, or rather its roots, are currently in the underworld of Hell. To eliminate it, we only need to remove the roots of the underworld."

"Hell... the underworld... does it really exist?" Youyouzi murmured unconsciously, then revealed an expectant expression, "Is there a solution to this problem?"

"Of course, I can go directly to the underworld and destroy it, or after a while, Hell should send someone to deal with it."

"As long as it can be solved." Youyouzi breathed a sigh of relief and did not immediately suggest a solution.

"Then is there any way to use my ability?"

"Well, I can help you get rid of this ability directly so that it won't appear again, or I can help you completely control it."

"Control... or disappear?" Youyouzi looked down at her palm. The special ability lingering in her body was almost condensed into substance. The gray aura was enough to make any creature feel fear.

"So, what is your choice?"

Luo Bai's voice rang in Youyouzi's ears, causing her to look up.

"Bai..." Youyouzi looked hesitant, but finally made up her mind.

"I want to know, did Zi ask you to help me in any way?"

"Well, of course I do." Luo Bai's lips curled up slightly, and the smile in his eyes was not concealed at all.

Everything was just as he wanted.

Chapter 97: The Trolley Problem for One Person

"A way to help Miss Saigyouji..."

"Yes, reward..."

'You fancy me?'

'really. ’

"I promise..."

Luo Bai summarized the conversation between the two into a few sentences and presented them to Youyouzi, with some unclear parts deliberately added in.

"This was part of the terms we negotiated at the time. You should be able to hear Yakumo Yukari's voice, right?" Luo Bai curled his lips and looked at Youyouzi who was frowning opposite him.

Youyouzi was silent. Having been with Yakumo Yukari for such a long time, she could naturally recognize Yakumo Yukari's voice, and the other voice was in front of her, so it was impossible for her to mistake it.

But it is precisely because she can tell the difference that she is troubled.

She wanted to get rid of the Journey to the West monster because it was harming people, and she also wanted to seal or control it because her abilities would affect others.

But if it is true as stated in this conversation that Yakumo Yukari paid the price of her own life to have her wish fulfilled, then why would she still bother to fulfill this wish?

Not seeking help can endanger others, but seeking help can hurt your friends.

Like a trolley problem, Yuyuko was placed at the position of pulling the lever.

On one side are the lives of most people, and on the other side are her own good friends. Youyouko doesn't know how to make a choice.

As for resentment towards Luo Bai? Luo Bai had done nothing wrong. He had simply made a normal transaction.

Luo Bai coming to help her was part of the deal, and Yakumo Yukari was the price to be paid.

"Can you give me some time to think about it?" Youyouzi pursed her lips, with a look of confusion in her eyes.

"Of course you can. Whenever you feel like it, just call my name in your heart. I can come anytime." Luo Bai smiled lightly and stood up. Then he seemed to think of something, "By the way, you can also ask Yakumo Yukari about this matter, but she will definitely deny it. You should know this very well.

Okay, take your time to think about it. I have other things to do, so I’ll leave now.”

Luo Bai waved his hand and his figure disappeared in front of Youyouzi.

Seeing Luo Bai leave, Youyouzi sighed and sat down by the window, starting to sort out everything that had happened in the past short period of time.

The fact that Luo Bai was able to come into close contact with the Journey to the West demon and her, regardless of whether he was prepared or not, was enough to prove Luo Bai's strength. He was also very likely to be able to solve her problem, but the price he paid was a bit too high for her.

She saw everything Yakumo Yukari did during this period. Maybe it was not intended to help her at first, but that didn't matter anymore. Now Yakumo Yukari had become her only friend, and she really didn't want to see Yakumo Yukari sacrifice herself for her.

But she had no other choice. She couldn't negotiate with Luo Bai to change the content of the transaction to her, right?

Youyouzi smiled self-deprecatingly.

Putting aside whether Luo Bai could accept her disgusting ability, she thought that she was far inferior to Yakumo Yukari in terms of value alone.

At least she didn't have the kind of magic that could make one come and go unpredictably, nor did she have the means to eliminate the Westward Journey Monster or seal her own abilities.

Just because Luo Bai likes Yakumo Yukari doesn't mean he will like her either.

Thinking of this, Youyouzi sighed again and stood up.

She decided to go to the library again, maybe there was a book somewhere that they had missed that could solve this situation...even though they had already searched the library thoroughly for such a long time.

Pushing open the door of the library and looking at the spotless bookshelves, Youyouzi walked inside and stopped at a bookshelf that was slightly dusty.

Youyouzi tilted her head and looked at the bookshelf in confusion.

"Strange! I remember I've already wiped this place, so why is there still dust? Never mind, let's wipe it again."

Muttering to herself, Youyouzi turned around to get something to clean the dust, but she stopped just as she turned around, turned back, and stared at the dusty books.

"Could there be something in here?"

......

There are all kinds of strange monsters in the world, but most of them have two or more ways to deal with them, either by breaking them with force, or by avoiding them with tricks, or by tracing their root causes and finding ways to counter them.

The first monster...

Youyouzi quickly turned the page, showing a hint of joy.

Although it is not clear why they have never seen this book, it does not matter. The records of monsters in it are so detailed that they will definitely be able to find a way to deal with the monsters from the West.

The last method, which I think is the most demanding, but can solve the root of the problem, is to use similar sources to counteract each other...

found it!

The hand that was turning the pages of the book stopped for a moment, and Youyouzi began to read carefully.

Generally speaking, where there is poison, there must be an antidote. I think the same is true for monsters.

Although the monster's abilities are unique, there must be a power of the same origin where it was born. By using this ability, we can find a way to restrain it.

However, I have only encountered it once in my entire life, and unfortunately I have not been able to find a way to eradicate it...

The pages flipped through the book, and Youyouzi didn't believe that this was all.

But fortunately, there is always a way out. Although the only way is to eradicate it, there is a way to seal it.

After my limited research, I finally found a way to use the power of the same origin to seal the monster.

First, you need to bring this monster to the place where it was born, then use the purest part of its same origin as a sacrifice, so that the two can be integrated into one, and finally someone with great power can use the sealing method as I have recorded, so that the monster can be sealed.

Unless someone in the world can find something of the same origin again, there is absolutely no possibility of solving it.

The method of sealing is...

Youyouzi closed the book without reading it anymore, and took it back to her room and hid it. She no longer needed to read it.

She didn't know the sealing method recorded in the book, so she could just leave it to someone else. As for the creature of the same origin as the Westward Journey Monster...

Youyouzi looked at the mirror and smiled slightly.

Isn't this already there?

However, now is not the time to discuss this with Luo Bai. According to Luo Bai, Yakumo Yukari may not come back for sure, so she must not know about this.

Later, she will find an opportunity to trick Yakumo Yukari out for a while, and then discuss it with Luo Bai.

Although this may not be good for Luo Bai, as long as it does not hurt Yakumo Yukari, she will not refuse any reward Luo Bai asks for.

After all, she might not be around by then.

On the other side, Yakumo Yukari, who was sent to the other side of the ocean by Luo Bai, was trying her best to come back.

"Damn it, if you dare to attack Youyouko, I will never let you go." Yakumo Yukari said gritting her teeth as she opened another gap.

Her injuries had not fully recovered yet, so she didn't dare to use all her strength to open the gap, otherwise she would not be able to react in time if she encountered danger, so she could only slowly rush back.

Luo Bai, who was sitting in the bamboo forest drinking tea, seemed to have heard Yakumo Yukari's complaints. He looked in her direction and smiled with narrowed eyes, saying, "I won't attack Youyouko, who is a human."

Chapter 98 Youyouzi's Decision

About three or four hours later, Yakumo Yukari finally rushed back to Youyouko's residence, but when she arrived, she found that Luo Bai had left, and Youyouko was reading a book in the room.

"Youyouzi, that guy has left? The Journey to the West Demon hasn't been dealt with yet?" Yakumo Yukari looked at the Journey to the West Demon who was still standing outside in confusion.

"Well, because Bai's method surprised me, I thought about it for a while. When I came to my senses, he said he had something to do and left first. He would come to me after he was done." Youyouzi smiled lightly and asked curiously:

"Zi, where did you go today? You look very tired."

"What could happen to him? He indulges himself in the arms of gentleness all day long and still has thoughts about us. Sooner or later, he will fall into a woman's belly." Yakumo Yukari muttered in dissatisfaction, then sat on Youyouzi's bed and rubbed her body.

"Sigh, the amount of exercise I did today is almost as much as I normally do in a month. I almost ran halfway around the world.

That guy threw me onto a piece of land across the sea. If I hadn't been so knowledgeable, I might not have been able to come back."

"Across the sea?!" Youyouzi raised her hand to cover her lips, a look of surprise on her face. "How far is that? Zi can actually get back in less than a day?"

"Of course. Even though I can't solve the problem of the Journey to the West monster, my strength is among the best among people of my age." Yakumo Yukari raised her head slightly and said proudly.

Even among a group of great monsters, her unique abilities are enough to allow her to occupy a leading position. It is precisely because of her ability to control the realm that she dares to have the idea of ​​building a world that almost exists in a dream.

Of course, she couldn't guarantee success without the help of others.

"Oh, so Zi is so powerful. But am I among the peers you mentioned?" Youyouko was a little curious about how long Yakumo Zi had been practicing. She looked about the same age as her, but she was so powerful.

"Of course...we are still young girls." Yakumo Yukari was a little embarrassed.

To be fair, she is indeed one of the younger ones among the monsters, but she is only a few hundred years old, which is just the beginning for the long lifespan of monsters.

But for humans, living for hundreds of years is no longer considered human.

She was not afraid that Youyouko would know her age. What she was worried about was that Youyouko would treat her as a monster and alienate her after knowing it.

The current era is different from Kaguya's time. Although there were few gods at that time, they still appeared in the world, and Onmyoji was thriving, so there were relatively few monsters.

But now, for some reason, gods rarely appear, and Onmyoji is no longer as they used to be. This has led to monsters running rampant, and even the Westward Journey Monster has appeared in the capital of this country.
