My wife's name is Platycodon

Asuka replied, "Because there is no god in Honma Shrine, the meaning of Lady Kikyo standing in the shrine is to act on behalf of God. Butterfly and I are Lady Kikyo's shikigami, and we also have the qualifications to be the gods' messengers."

Hades Shura was confused after hearing this. After thinking for a long time, he roughly understood that this place was different from other shrines. Kikyo was the spokesperson for heaven and earth. The birds and butterflies were more like messengers of this world than Kikyo's messengers.

“Is this useful?”

Butterfly said crisply: "It can strengthen the shrine barrier."

"Because of the underworld? Can these things extend the seal's duration?"

Asuka shook his head, and Butterfly continued, "It can't extend the time, but it can stabilize it. The underworld is very dangerous, so the shrine can't be easily destroyed."

Whether it is the Tamagaku, the Shimenawa, or the stone statue of the god, they all play a multiple role of protection. Although the power contained in a single item is not much, when added together and linked together, they are enough to form a force as solid as Mount Tai.

Asuka looked very cold. She said, "If Lady Kikyo is in the shrine, it would be better than anything else. It naturally has the highest level of protection. But Lady Kikyo will leave sooner or later."

In other words, they were cleaning up the mess and preventing the shrine from collapsing years earlier.

"Thank you for your hard work." Hades Shura touched their heads one by one. To be honest, this was also related to him. Kikyo had promised to accompany him out.

Butterfly squinted her eyes in comfort, and her expression was very similar to Kikyo's when she just woke up. Asuka also showed a slightly strange expression, but pursed her lips and said nothing.

He then asked, "Do you need my help?"

Butterfly quickly shook her head, "No need! Asuka and I are branding the statue with our own powers. This way, even if we leave with Lady Kikyo, the statue can still take our place. If you were to intervene now, you would destroy our brand."

"Then I won't bother you anymore." Hades Shura followed suit. He turned his head to look at Kikyo and found that she was sitting on a stone bench, seemingly communicating something with Cong Yunya.

Time moves forward a little.

Cong Yunya opened his mouth and said: "Jigen, why are you not dead yet?"

Kikyo was not angry, she looked very reserved, she smiled slightly and said: "Mong Yunjian, you seem to know something!"

Cong Yunya's voice sounded heavy: "That is the mark of the underworld. Did you trigger this power just now? It should have completely disappeared by now, and your soul should have been scattered."

It felt very strange and couldn't understand why Kikyo, who had been exposed to this forbidden power repeatedly, was a god and couldn't be safe and sound.

Either you lose your memory or you lose your emotions, or in worse cases you lose your personality.

Because this is the power of reincarnation.

An irreversible cycle.

"Do you think I will go to reincarnation like this?" Kikyo asked back, with a pretty face and a leisurely look. She was always very elegant in front of other people, never humble or arrogant. The lazy expression she had when facing the Shura of the Underworld just now seemed to be just an illusion.

"No matter how strong you are, you have done something stupid!"

But Cong Yunya didn't have a good attitude towards Kikyo. He looked at Kikyo's power differently. But on this basis, he also disliked this witch very much and still remembered clearly how embarrassed this witch made him.

A sword that could kill gods was forced to succumb to the power of a witch.

Even though he knew that Kikyo was not an ordinary priestess, Cong Yunya still felt very ashamed, not to mention that Hades Shura planned to put it in Kikyo's body.

Doesn't this bastard recognize Cong Yunya's value?

Kikyo said softly, "Is it stupid? I don't think so. Is this the extent of so-called reincarnation?"

Cong Yunya was so angry that he laughed. Its power came from the underworld and controlled souls. The most important thing was that it could prevent the undead in the Land of the Underworld from reincarnating. However, this ability was worthless in Kikyo's eyes.

If the underworld had consciousness, it would probably be quite helpless: why is there a witch always jumping back and forth in front of the gates of hell, sometimes jumping over, sometimes jumping back, not only is her movements very agile, but no one can do anything about her.

"You simply don't understand what kind of power this is, and how dangerous it is..." Cong Yunya said coldly. He had just said half of his words when he felt someone pick him up.

The Hades Shura held up the Congyun Ya and tilted his head to ask, "Is it dangerous?"

Cong Yunya wisely remained silent, thinking that this bastard was just like Inu Taisho, a henpecked man. He was very worried that Hades Shura would jump into the underworld for Kikyo.

In that case, I don’t know how long it will take to meet the next qualified owner.

"Kikyo?" Shura of the Underworld looked at Kikyo in confusion, waiting for her to explain.

But Kikyo smiled slightly: "What's wrong?"

"Tsk!" Hades Shura smacked his lips, "Okay, I plan to find a scabbard for Cong Yunya, but it seems that nothing can isolate Cong Yunya's evil spirit."

Kikyo thought for a moment, then pointed outside the torii. Following Kikyo's direction, Hades Shura saw a big tree with lush branches and leaves and a thick trunk.

That is the sacred tree.

The Asura of Hades suddenly realized.

The source of the shrine's spiritual power is the Tree of Ages. Kikyo also said that it has enormous spiritual power. In the past, she regarded the Tree of Ages as a spiritual vein and used it as a foundation to set up the shrine's barrier.

Even though the shrine later became a ruin, with the power of the Tree of Ages, Kikyo was able to restore everything here back to fifty years ago.

Moreover, when Kikyo created the divine realm according to the Pure Land Seal, she probably also relied on the power of the Tree of Ages. Asuka and Butterfly did not hesitate to use their bodies to stop Kusunaga and Inuyasha, and were unwilling to mobilize the spiritual power of the shrine because they were worried about the impact on Kikyo.

So, when Kikyo sealed the Underworld, she should have used the spiritual power of the Tree of Ages, right?

"Asuka, go and help me pick a branch." Kikyo called out. Asuka stopped what she was doing and quickly brought a branch of the sacred tree and handed it to Kikyo.

When Cong Yunya saw the branch on the table, he felt something strange. Although he could not sense any power from it, he instinctively felt that something was wrong and could not help asking, "What is this?"

It originally thought that Hades Shura would be helpless. After all, it was a famous magic sword in ancient and modern times. It couldn't find a suitable object and couldn't put it into Kikyo's body.

"The sacred tree of the shrine." The Asura of the Underworld looked at it with interest. Is he afraid now?

Cong Yunya suppressed his inner uneasiness and sneered, "It's so funny, you can call this a shrine? I have seen countless destroyed shrines in ancient times. Any of those solemn and magnificent buildings can be used as a palace in this era. This kind of shabby place was not even qualified to be a toilet in the past. This kind of sacred tree is not worthy of being used as a scabbard for my sword."

Damn, but those shrines don't have shrine maidens like Kikyo.

Cong Yunya tried hard to get back his position. Even though he couldn't win, he still had to maintain his dignity and talk tough, at least to make the Underworld Shura realize his value, otherwise he would be in the dark room for three to five years.

Kikyo glanced at Cong Yunya calmly, and without saying much, she asked Hades Shura, "What name do you plan to engrave on the scabbard?"

Mingfu Shura had no talent for naming. He pondered for a long time and looked at Kikyo: "Is Cong Yunya not okay?"

Kikyo smiled faintly and said, "In ancient times, it was called the Murasaki Sword. When it came into the hands of Inu Taisho, it was called the Murasaki Fang. Now it's your turn."

She seemed to take this matter more seriously than the Asura of the Underworld. Being able to subdue the magic sword was itself a reflection of his strong martial virtues and an achievement that could be regarded as glorious.

General Inu is famous all over the world, and both enemies and friends praise him highly. It is not simply because of his unrivaled military power of the time, but also partly due to the bonus of Cong Yunya.

The magic sword that can kill gods, the power to travel back and forth to the underworld, the controller of the Yellow Springs Kingdom, these things naturally destined Cong Yunya to be extraordinary.

The Hades Shura pondered for a moment and tried to say, "How about calling her Kikyo?"

Before Kikyo could say anything, Cong Yunya suddenly became furious and roared, "I'd rather die!"

What do you mean? Do you think of it as your wife?

Damn it, it's a magic sword and can only be used to kill!

Does this name live up to the powerful enemy it killed?

The pearl on the tip of its sword turned red. It could not accept this name at all and would rather die with honor than surrender.

Kikyo laughed dumbly and shook her head slightly: "Don't joke."

But when she saw the expression on Hades Shura's face, she sighed. Is this the only name this guy can think of?

Kikyo suggested, "Why not call it the Sword of Hades?"

She was actually also very troubled. The right to name was actually very important. Cong Yunya might not accept the name she gave. Only the owner could name the child.

Hades Shura looked innocent: "What about me?"

Kikyo looked at him with a smile: "Don't you have another name?"

Chapter 20: How Platycodon eats rabbits

Although the name of the Sword of Hades is quite lame, it makes people feel like taking off pants to fart is a waste of time.

But this is indeed the best name at the moment.

Because the word "Hollow" does not refer to the underworld, but comes from the name Hades Shura, which is proof that Cong Yunya was subdued by Hades Shura.

This is a claim of sovereignty.

Sometimes the symbol means more than any name.

But Hades Shura is not aware of this yet. He looks at Cong Yunya and thinks that he should just throw away this magic sword.

He said he wanted to name Cong Yunya after Platycodon, but right after that Platycodon gave the title of Hades to Cong Yunya.

He now felt that Kikyo was taking revenge.

This is a bad woman.

"No, I have no intention of changing my name yet." Hades Shura shook his head desperately. He currently does not intend to have the same name as a sword. The correlation is too high, and Cong Yunya is not at that level yet.

Kikyo's beautiful eyebrows were slightly wrinkled. In her memory, this was the first time that Hades Shura had clearly opposed her. She thought it was an insignificant matter, so she said, "You don't value your title."

He said stubbornly: "You have been calling me that all the time."

Kikyo was a little surprised and patiently explained: "Murakumo Ya is not suitable for it now. You can't fight with the sword of Inu Taisho. This is an insult to you. The new name needs to have your style."

The Hades Shura turned his head, not looking at Kikyo, and said coldly: "I have many other titles, you can use other ones."

This custom has always existed in Japan. They called Oda Nobunaga the Sixth Heavenly Demon King and regarded all previous emperors as descendants of Amaterasu. The style of middle school has never changed. He has been to too many places in the past two years. Every time he goes to a place, he will have an additional title. Now even he can't remember how many there are.

The bloody devil, the Asura of Hades, the herder of death, the reincarnation of the god, the devil lord of hell, the undertaker of the underworld...

He stood in the first row of the supreme force, and could wrestle with big monsters. This kind of fighting power was already legendary for humans. No matter how much humans exaggerated and used exaggerated words to describe him, such as clearing a monster mountain in one night, breaking through a monster nest alone, killing countless monsters... etc., they would soon find out that these rumors were true, which was in line with his rapidly growing strength.

Is it scary?

Yes, it's scary!

This has led to the fact that modern humans do not dare to consider him as a human being, but have been trying to make him closer to gods and demons.

Are you kidding? How can humans defeat monsters?

Seeing his stubbornness, Kikyo smiled and gently pulled her hair behind her ears.

"What if I say I don't like these titles of yours?"

"Impossible!" Hades Shura said without hesitation. He was quite confident. Since he met Kikyo, 70% of the words "Hades Shura" came from Kikyo's mouth.

You say you don't like it now? What were you doing earlier?

Hades Shura was very confident, but Kikyo was very surprised that he actually reacted and that she had failed to trick him. When did his IQ become so high?

She thought for a moment, then said, "Are you going to spend your life with these titles?"

"The name is just a code name! You can call it anything you want, I don't care."

Hearing him say that, Kikyo's eyes lit up with a smile, "That's just for outsiders, do you have the same attitude towards me?"

He was speechless for a moment, and after calming down and thinking about it carefully, he realized that it was indeed inappropriate because there was no way to classify Kikyo together with the others.

But those titles are like a mask. Once worn for a long time, even if he says it doesn’t matter what the name is, he is actually used to hiding himself under the mask.

He froze there, unable to make a decision and very hesitant.

Kikyo sighed, revealing a trace of sadness very naturally, her eyes full of loss, her tone full of sadness: "I am very sad, were you lying to me before?"

His scalp exploded, and the thick black hair on his back almost stood up. He took several steps back, leaned back, and his face twitched.

He is not a fool, nor is he brainless. No matter how vivid Kikyo's expression is, he does not believe that Kikyo is really sad. He has long seen through Kikyo's true face. Although she looks elegant and unaffected, she is sometimes very bad and full of evil tastes. She is good at taking advantage of her high status in the hearts of others.

Naraku, who was the last one to suffer a loss, was covered in wounds and was deceived so badly. Now he doesn’t know where to hide to lick his wounds.

He didn't know whether Inuyasha had suffered any loss or not, but it was obvious now that he was going to suffer a loss.

I silently took back what I said before. Master Zhang was so damn right.

He was ultimately unable to withstand Kikyo's attack, and said with great difficulty: "I, have no objection."

It was as if he had spent his entire life to write these few words, and I felt depressed. He compromised, and now it was hard to imagine what would happen in the future.

And the culprit of all this is Platycodon.

Kikyo showed a victorious expression, looking down at him from above, covering her lower lip with the back of her hand, and laughed arrogantly and domineeringly like a queen...

The above are all his illusions.
