I have no regrets about my 2D world!

Kaguya turned around and called out, then hurried into the house.

Looking at Kaguya's departing back, Huashan was a little confused.

Call them for help? They're willing to help for free? You'd be dumber than a ghost. At least they'd ask for some compensation.

But the person she introduced seemed to be Kaguya Horaisan, so why did she mention that the helper was Fujiwara no Mokou? Could it be that they also had a superior-subordinate relationship?

Hua Shan shook his head, picked up the wine jar and started drinking again.

If you can't figure it out, just stop thinking about it. Besides, you haven't figured out your own affairs yet, so why would you have time to think about others?

......

Just when Hua Shan decided to stay in the bamboo forest, a group of monsters gathered in an area called Oeyama, and the few in the middle of them had auras that were no less than those of the big monsters.

"King Yugi, you haven't contacted King Ibaraki yet? My men won't be able to wait any longer."

The person who spoke was one of the great Tengu of the Tengu clan, named Iizuna Maruryū. He had heard that the demon clan was preparing to hold the Night Parade of a Hundred Demons, so he brought some of his men with him, wanting to take this opportunity to collect some human "fear" and find some good wine.

However, we have been here for such a long time, but we still haven't seen the ghost tribe set off. After asking around, we found out that a ghost leader named Ibaraki King had gone out and has not returned yet.

If she was alone, she wouldn't mind waiting a little longer, but she was accompanied by a group of subordinates, and there was no way they could stay in the ghost clan's territory for long.

The ghosts love drinking and fighting, and the Tengu are actually not much different. Once the two races meet, there will inevitably be great chaos. At the beginning, each of them as a leader can control the situation for a while, but accidents are inevitable over time.

"I haven't been able to get in touch with him yet, but I don't plan to wait any longer." The one who was talking to Iizuna Maruryū was none other than Hoshiguma Yugi, known as King Yugi. He was also the leader of the demon clan in the surrounding area and a powerful monster.

However, unlike Hua Shan, she only has one ghost horn, which is located on her forehead. It is not very big, but it emits a dark red glow that makes people's heart palpitate.

Xingxiong Yugi stood up, holding a bowl of wine in his hand and looked around.

"Everyone..." The surroundings suddenly became quiet, "We are gathered here today for the upcoming grand event. We will go to the capital of this country and let the people there witness our generosity.

We might encounter equally powerful opponents there, and we might even die there, so if anyone is afraid, leave now and don't let me see anyone trying to escape, or I won't hold back."

As soon as the words fell, the scene suddenly fell silent. The monsters looked at each other, but suddenly laughter was heard.

"Hahaha, King Yongyi, aren't we going there just to find someone to fight? Isn't encountering a strong opponent exactly our goal? If anyone retreats, we won't let go of anyone who has lost the dignity of the ghost clan."

"That's right, King Yongyi, just rest assured."

The voices of ghosts kept ringing around, and none of the ghosts showed any fear.

As for the Tengu and other monsters, some of them started shouting, while others remained silent.

Xingxiong Yugi nodded with satisfaction, picked up the wine bowl in his hand and drank it all, then wiped the corner of his mouth with his arm nonchalantly and looked at the monsters.

"set off!"

"Oh!" A cheer rang out.

......

At the same time, somewhere in the country, two contrasting figures with girlish appearances were also discussing this matter.

"Hey, have you heard about the Night Parade of a Hundred Demons?" The brown-haired girl stood there and said to the blue-haired girl next to her without any politeness.

"Oh, that thing? I heard about it. Does Nuyuan want to go too?" The blue-haired girl squatted on the ground, looking listless.

"Of course, there won't just be monsters there. There will definitely be humans as well, and they'll be the richest of them all. I plan to take this opportunity to 'borrow' some."

"It's very dangerous there, and we're not some kind of fighting gods. It's not a good idea to go and 'borrow' it, right?"

"They are just a group of humans and monsters. How can they beat us? Just decide whether to go or not." The brown-haired girl seemed a little impatient and her tone became heavier.

"I'll go." The blue-haired girl shouted desperately.

This is right.

The brown-haired girl nodded in satisfaction.

Chapter 108: Preparations of all parties and alternative ghosts

A month passed in the blink of an eye, and the country's usually bustling and peaceful capital, Heian-kyo, now felt like a storm was about to come.

In a shrine somewhere in Heian-kyo, a black-haired young man in white clothes and a crown on his head was worshiping an unknown statue in front of him. Behind him stood several people with a similar temperament to him.

The people behind him didn't say anything, and the black-haired man didn't seem to notice them, just going through the process silently.

After a while, the tedious worship was finally completed, and the man turned around and looked at everyone with a smile.

"I wonder what you all want from me?"

When the man spoke, a man wearing a Taoist robe and with a calm expression walked out from the crowd.

"Abe, you should know about that too, right?"

The man called Abe nodded gently. "Of course, I already knew that, and I've confirmed that it's not fake news. However, we can't discuss this matter in front of the Lord God. How about we move on for now?"

The man in the Taoist robe glanced behind Abe and nodded silently.

Following the guidance of the shrine's priestess, everyone soon arrived at a pavilion with beautiful scenery and sat down.

"Now it's time to tell me the news you know as soon as possible, Abe." The man in Taoist robes spoke first.

"Don't be anxious, Kamo, you are the most stable one among us. If you are anxious, the others will be anxious too." Abe chuckled twice and took the tea handed to him by the shrine maiden.

He Mao remained calm and said, "If we delay, something bad will happen."

"Haha, nothing will change as long as I'm here." Abe put down the teacup and uttered something softly. An extremely confident aura appeared on him, but the others did not feel the slightest discomfort, as if it was supposed to be so.

"That would be best, but we must also be prepared." Kamo nodded slightly, then his eyes became sharp, "We must let those monsters know where this place is, where they should come, and where they shouldn't come."

"Kamo, you are a little impulsive." Abe shook his head and pushed the tea in front of Kamo.

"Just calm down. You can't be prepared like this."

He Mao was slightly stunned, took the tea and remained silent.

Abe chuckled softly and looked at the other person at the table.

"General Yuan must be ready, right?"

The man Abe called Minamoto no Shogun was a middle-aged man whose full name was Minamoto no Yorimitsu. He was the strongest samurai of that era, so he was given the title of Shogun.

"Don't worry, Mr. Abe. I have already made preparations." Minamoto no Raikou nodded slightly and picked up the two knives at his waist.

"These two swords are called Kneepikiri and Higekiri. I found the best craftsmen to forge them. Even if they were to cut through the hard bodies of monsters, they would be as easy as cutting through iron. I've already tested this on monsters."

"Oh, in that case, we will have to rely on General Minamoto no Raikou then." Abe personally poured a cup of tea and handed it to Minamoto no Raikou.

Minamoto no Raikou hurriedly took it.

"That's not necessary, Mr. Abe. You will be the one who takes charge."

If Minamoto no Raikou is the strongest samurai of this era, then Abe is undoubtedly the number one onmyoji of this era.

One can use weapons to fight against monsters, while the other is able to understand ghosts and gods on his own. The gap between the two can be described as a world of difference.

"There's no such thing as who is in charge. We are all here to fight against the monsters, so we should treat each other equally." Abe waved his hand, not caring at all.

"This..." Minamoto no Yorimitsu hesitated for a moment, then bowed, "Thank you, Mr. Abe."

Abe smiled silently.

Then Kamo, who had recovered a little, joined the conversation between the two, and they discussed the countermeasures in this small shrine.

......

a few days later.

"Are you leaving?" Luo Bai looked at Hua Shan who stood up and said goodbye.

"Well, I feel it. Yongyi and the others are almost here. I need to meet up with them. I will come back to find you when this matter is over." Huashan looked somewhere outside the bamboo forest, and seemed to have discovered the traces of that group of monsters.

"It's been so long, and you still haven't figured it out?" Luo Bai was a little surprised.

Hua Shan spends every day here drinking and sitting there in a daze... No, she is thinking. If the two horns on her head were removed, no one would believe her if she told others that she was a ghost.

"No, I've figured it out, so I plan to come back." Hua Shan shook his head slightly, as if he had lost the arrogance he had when he first came.

Luo Bai looked at her and was amazed.

This Hua Shan is definitely an alternative existence among the ghosts. There are not many ghosts who like to use their brains, let alone think about emotional matters. And looking at her appearance, it seems that she has really thought of something, and even her temperament has changed.

"Well then, tell me what you have figured out."

Ok?

This time it was Hua Shan who was a little surprised.

Luo Bai didn't ask her directly. She thought that if Luo Bai asked, she would just ask him for help, but Luo Bai didn't ask directly.

Hua Shan was quite depressed. She had thought for a long time before coming up with this idea, but it failed right from the start.

But it’s better this way. At least it can be seen that Luo Bai still cares about her face. He won’t even ask her unless she brings it up.

However, Luo Bai just wanted to solve the problem all at once after the Night Parade of the Hundred Demons to avoid trouble.

Shaking his head slightly, Hua Shan picked up the last jar of wine on the ground, glanced at Luo Bai inexplicably, and then drank it all in one gulp.

The wine jar was thrown to the ground, and Hua Shan's pride and self-confidence reappeared on his body.

"Hahaha, very good, Luo Bai, I will remember you, and I will come to have a good chat with you after this Hundred Demons Night Parade.

You should go and see it too, and then you can witness the spirit of our ghost clan."

Hua Shan made two loud noises, then turned and left without hesitation. As he took a step, he disappeared from sight.

Luo Bai looked at the direction where Hua Shan left with interest, and his mind moved slightly.

What is this, the momentum of the last battle?

Or is it just the last battle as a ghost?

Luo Bai recalled his understanding of Hua Shan. When he first met her, she was called Ci Huaxian.

......

The moonlight tonight is extremely bright, and the milky white light is cast on the ground, covering the creatures of the night with a veil.

The people in Heian-kyō had already shut their doors and windows, locking them one after another so that nothing could be opened.

The street was deserted, but there was a faint sense of vibration.

In the center of Heian-kyo, humans led by Abe stood there quietly, while the samurai in the back silently gripped their swords.

In an uninhabited courtyard, two girls with brown hair and blue hair were constantly rummaging through things. They seemed to sense something, stopped what they were doing, looked at each other, and disappeared.

Clouds passed by, the moonlight was hidden, a breeze blew, and the bright light appeared again, even brighter.

Luo Bai was on the top of a tall building, holding a wine glass in his hand, his consciousness covering the entire Heian-kyo.

Taking a sip of wine, Luo Bai curled up the corners of his mouth.

Monsters, humans, gods...how interesting.

Chapter 109: One Hundred Demons Night Parade

With a slight vibration coming from the ground, a group of monsters have arrived near Heijo-kyo.

Xingxiong Yugi, who was at the front, stopped and looked at the city gate blocking their way, grinning.

Then he walked to the city gate and pressed it with his hand.

With a loud bang, the several-meter-high city gate shattered to the ground, raising a cloud of smoke.

With a slight wave of his hand, Xingxiong Yongyi turned around and looked at the monsters: "Now, let's go enjoy our feast!"

"Oh!"

The monsters cheered and rushed towards the city gate, avoiding the position of Xingxiong Yugi.

However, although the city gate was large, it was still unable to accommodate the influx of monsters, so some monsters ran directly in along the city wall.

What was surprising was that the soldiers who had been guarding the city wall had disappeared, but the monsters didn't care.

After most of the monsters had entered, the only ones left were Hoshiguma Yugi, Iizuna Maruryū, and a few younger-looking Tengu beside Iizuna Maruryū.

"Are they unwilling to participate?" Hoshiguma Yugi looked at the young Tengu with interest.

Iizuna Maru Ryu shook his head: “They do want to, but I won’t let them.

They are considered to be the more talented among this generation, so I brought them here to broaden their horizons. I would be heartbroken if even one of them were missing."
