My personal opinion on Gensokyo

Accompanying Shang Yang, a beautiful girl wearing a light-colored kimono embroidered with flower petals, who looked only about fifteen years old, made statements to her lord with an expressionless face.

"What Inu Taisho and Yugyo Kitsune truly want to do is to defeat you and use that as an opportunity to gradually dismantle the strong hold that you, the Yokai Sage, and the other Yokai Lords hold over the Yokai."

Having said this, the beautiful girl tilted her head and revealed a very ironic look.

"Such words would definitely not come from Toga-oh, the dog general and great youkai general from the remote countryside of the western kingdom. Instead, they are likely the methods of a feathered fox who is keen on controlling humans."

"It seems that this is indeed the case. Inu Taisho and Hagoromo Kitsune intend to completely shake the rule of the ancient great monsters with long life spans."

After hearing the girl's statement, the gray-haired master of Yoshino Mountain turned his gaze to the beautiful monster girl named Konoe Teru in front of him and asked casually.

"Zhao, what do you want me to say to the monsters and ghosts who are in charge of this ghost city?"

"Although Ghost City is a neutral city open to all gods, monsters, and other non-human beings, if Lord Shangyang needs it, all the monsters and ghosts currently in Ghost City are willing to join Lord Shangyang's Night Parade of One Hundred Demons and help you eliminate the rebellious generals Toga and Yuyuko."

Hearing Shang Yang's words, the beautiful monster girl, Konoe Teru, reported softly.

"Also, the great ghosts of the ghost tribe have asked me to ask you if you would like to go to the otherworldly hell and invite Lady Ibuki Suika and the other Four Heavenly Kings of the ghost tribe to come to the ghost capital?"

"Oh...the ghosts are only nominally registered under my name. I didn't expect them to have such sincere feelings."

After hearing Jinwei Zhao's report, Shang Yang nodded slightly thoughtfully, and pressed his right index finger on the city wall, tapping the bricks rhythmically.

"Tell them that there's no need. The ghosts should just do what they need to do. As for whether to go to hell to invite Ibuki Suika and the others, tell the ghosts not to bother. It's said that Ibuki Suika and the others are now living in a place without a fixed place underground in order to hone their strength."

Upon hearing this, Jin Wei Zhao bowed gently to Shang Yang without any hesitation.

"I will obey your orders, Lord Shang Yang. I will respond to them immediately."

"Well, let's go."

After the beautiful monster girl left the city wall of Ghost City, Shang Yang turned around again and looked at the monsters scattered outside Ghost City, all facing him, ready for battle. He shrugged helplessly and interrupted the tall dog monster who was still reciting aloud.

"General of the Western Dog Demon Clan, there's no need to repeat Yuyuko's words. Now that you've come before me, there's no need to be so secretive. Just state your purpose openly."

"Oh, that's right. I've long been tired of these tedious words."

Being interrupted by the Lord Commander-in-Chief of Monsters in the World, Dog General Togao burst into laughter.

"Well, then, Lord Commander-in-Chief of the Monsters of the World, I, the general of the Dog Demon Clan of the Western Kingdom, Dog General Douya King, here in Ghost City, challenge the honorable Lord Commander-in-Chief of Monsters. Lord Commander-in-Chief of Monsters, do you dare to accept the challenge?!"

"Oh... challenge me."

Upon hearing this, Shang Yang showed an inexplicable smile.

"Very good. It seems that the style of action of Lord Inu General Douga is indeed upright and domineering. It is really admirable."

"However, you, a mere little monster who has been famous for three hundred years, are going to become my enemy."

"Should we say you are reckless and arrogant, or are you courageous and commendable?"

"Haha, Master Commander, what nonsense are you talking about? We monsters never determine our status based on the length of our lifespan!"

Hearing the subtle sarcasm from the Yokai Commander-in-Chief, Toga King casually drew out his demon sword Tessaiga and laughed domineeringly.

"Or perhaps, having lived too long, the Lord Commander of all the monsters in the world has completely forgotten..."

"...For us monsters, only those who win in fights have the right to command the other monsters to obey?!"

Hearing Inu no Taisho's words, the monsters also became noisy and shouted one after another.

"That's right!"

"The General is right!"

"The Monster Commander has lived too long. Now is the time for us to take his life!"

Witnessing the dog general Toga's hard-to-conceal arrogance and ambition, the gray-haired monster commander was stunned for a moment and shook his head helplessly.

"...Yes, that's all nonsense. Well, since you've gone to all this trouble to challenge me, I'll give you this chance."

"As for Yuyuko, the fox that hides in the depths of darkness and manipulates humans, it is naturally hiding in the darkness now, waiting for an opportunity to kill me."

Before he finished speaking, the next moment, Shang Yang, who was originally stationed on the wall of Ghost City, suddenly appeared in front of the tall dog demon general Dou Ya Wang, less than five steps away.

Frightened by the sudden action of the big monster with gray and white shaggy hair, countless monsters besieging the Ghost City were so frightened that they almost subconsciously attacked the commander-in-chief of monsters in the world.

However, these restless monsters were stopped by the deeply frowning Dog General Toga.

"Stop it all!"

Seeing the dog general Toga Wang reaching out to stop the panicked and agitated monsters, Shang Yang said lightly.

"However, there's no need to worry too much. If you have the ability, I, the Monster Commander Shang Yang, welcome you to try to kill me by any means."

"No matter what means you use, as long as you can kill me, that will be your victory. Please work hard."

"Well then, Lord Inu Taisho Toga, let's get back to the point. Although you are challenging me, and I accept your challenge."

At this point, Shang Yang narrowed his eyes slightly, changed the subject, and said in a light and cheerful tone.

"But, until now, I still haven't taken you seriously. Let me tell you this, I'll give you three times. Within three times, I won't take action."

Hearing these calm yet extremely arrogant and contemptuous remarks, all the monsters, including the dog general Toga, and the fox who was hiding and waiting for an opportunity to attack, were stunned at the same time.

A sense of shame at being greatly humiliated rose in the hearts of all the monsters, and the restless monsters shouted loudly in anger.

"General! Kill him!"

"Even for the Youkai Commander-in-Chief, this is truly disrespectful! Lord Inu Taisho! Please kill him immediately!"

"That's right! Kill him!"

Volume 5: The Miko of the Warring States Period: Chapter 233: Overwhelming Power

"Hehe! Stupid fellow! He actually allowed the master to attack him at will."

A flea was jumping non-stop on the shawl of King Douya, looking extremely proud.

"Even for a great monster from ancient times, such behavior is too arrogant!"

However, the dog general Toga frowned and scolded in a low voice.

"Shut up, Mingjia, immediately go and inform the dog demons in my clan and tell them to retreat as far as possible!"

"what?!"

Upon hearing this, the flea monster Myoga, a trusted retainer of the Inu general Toga, was stunned and spoke in an extremely unbelievable tone.

"Master, why are you retreating? In my opinion, the demonic aura of the demon commander isn't very strong. Moreover, he arrogantly lets you attack him three times at will..."

"fool."

Hearing this, the dog general Douga Wang glanced at the young man with gray hair who was still standing not far away from him with his hands behind his back, his smile unchanged, and scolded him in a low voice again.

"Haven't you felt it yet?! Quickly, lead the dog demons back! This is an order!"

"Feel?"

Mingjia was completely confused and asked in bewilderment.

"Master, what do you feel..."

Before Mingjia could finish his words, a feeling of shudder suddenly spread throughout the flea monster's body.

In an instant, sweat began to flow from the flea monster's forehead.

"Hmph, you noticed it!"

Seeing Mingjia's frightened look, the dog general Toga showed a ferocious smile.

"This feeling is warning us that the demon commander-in-chief of the world is extremely terrifying! Immediately make the dog demons retreat! At this time, the dog demons will retreat without other demons noticing. Mingjia, go quickly!"

"Yes! Master!"

Mingjia also understood that now was not the time to hesitate, so he immediately jumped off the tall body of the Dog General Douga.

"Please be careful!"

After his loyal retainers left, Toga King, with a ferocious smile, raised the demon sword Tessaiga in his hand. The rusty sword full of gaps, under the infusion of the huge demonic power of the dog general Toga King, turned into a domineering fang that the entire Western Kingdom feared.

"Then, Master Monster Commander, I will not be polite to you!"

The demonic energy surrounded the Domineering Fang Tessaiga. The pressure emitted by the huge demonic power of Dog General Toga caused the monsters behind Dog General Toga to retreat involuntarily.

All the monsters were staring intently at the big monster from the west who was raising Tessaiga, but they didn't notice that the dog monsters from the west had quietly left.

Then, the dog general Douga Wang held the fang of tyranny and swung it down suddenly!

"Wind injury!!!"

A violent whirlwind of demonic power rolled up, and the Wind Wound of Dog General Toga King was more than a hundred times more violent and ferocious than the Wind Wound used by his half-demon son in the future!

Then, the violent storm of demonic power violently bombarded the young man with gray and shaggy hair who did not respond at all.

boom! ! !

The violent and violent explosion kicked up a large amount of dust, and the restless demonic power that spread everywhere made the surface of the earth full of cracks and collapsed ground.

However, when the dust cleared, a terrifying situation appeared before the monsters behind Inu no Taisho, Toga, which terrified them terribly.

Even though he was hit directly by the Wind Wound swung by the Tyrannical Fang Tessaiga, the ancient monster with gray and white hair remained indifferent and did not suffer any harm at all.

Frowning deeply again, Dog General Toga retracted Tessaiga, drew out the greatsword Murakumoga on his back, and shouted coldly and fiercely.

"Everyone stand down!"

The frightened monsters retreated subconsciously.

Then, a deep voice was heard from the great sword Congyunya that was pulled out of its scabbard by the dog general Toga.

"Oh... Inu Taisho Toga-oh, you haven't drawn me out in nearly two hundred years. What happened? What kind of powerful enemy did you encounter?"

"Ah, a very dangerous enemy, Cong Yunya."

He drew out the Cong Yun Ya, and the dark evil demonic power, mixed with the restless demonic power of the Dog General Dou Ya Wang, gathered on the Cong Yun Ya. The Dog General Dou Ya Wang sneered ferociously.

"This time, our enemy is the youkai commander-in-chief under the command of Tian Yi...!"

"What?! Heavenly Demon Shangyang?!"

Cong Yunya, who was pulled out, obviously noticed the young man with gray and white hair not far away, and was immediately extremely frightened.

"Idiot! I told you long ago! The great monsters of this era are on a completely different level from those terrifying ancient monsters! Even with the combined power of you and me, we are no match for the Heavenly Demon Shang Yang!"

"Ha! At this point, we have no way out! Now we can only risk our lives! Prison Dragon Break!!!"

As Cong Yunya swung the Hell Fang, the huge tornado brought by the dark Hell Dragon instantly swept up an area of ​​dozens of miles.

Then, the tyrannical Hell Dragon let out a hissing wind pressure, and rolled towards the indifferent monster commander extremely quickly, as if it wanted to swallow Shang Yang into the belly of the Hell Dragon and crush him into pieces.

"Hmm... This is the Hell Dragon, Hell Dragon Break."

Looking up at the huge and rapidly approaching violent demonic storm, Shang Yang seemed to sigh in admiration.

Then, the Lord Commander of all the monsters in the world did not intend to draw out his Yin-Yang Sword, but simply raised his right hand.

Zhi...zhi...

The wind dragon from hell touched Shang Yang's raised hand, and suddenly a huge, piercing noise was made.

However, that’s all.

The Hell Dragon, Hell Dragon Breaker, was simply held down by the indifferent young man with gray hair, and could not move forward an inch.

The white and black air currents, the "Liang Yi Qi", came from Shang Yang's right hand and spiraled around the still violently spinning Hell Dragon.

The "Liang Yi Qi" surrounding the Hell Dragon suddenly twisted.

The Hell Dragon, Hell Dragon Breaker, was crushed and swallowed without any resistance and disappeared completely.

"Is Prison Dragon Break also useless..."

Witnessing this horrific scene that frightened the monsters, Dog General Toga said to himself solemnly, casually put the Muronga back into the scabbard, and then once again revealed his hideous and cruel smile.

“Interesting…”

"So interesting! Monster General!!!"

Along with the low roar of the general of the Xigu dog demon clan, the human body of the dog general Douya Wang changed and grew extremely rapidly.

Then, within a blink of an eye, a giant dog monster that was hundreds of meters long stepped on the ground with all four legs, its eyes bloodshot and a low roar rang out.

"Master Monster Commander! This is my most powerful attack!!!"

The huge dog claws suddenly slapped Shang Yang!
