Luo Wei didn't know much about Abe no Kichihei.
After all, this guy has appeared in far too few anime.
There are only two at most.
One is Nurarihyon no Mago (the grandson of Nurarihyon no Yokai), and the other is... a young Onmyoji.
However, Abe no Kichihei is not the main character in either of these anime series.
The protagonist of Nurarihyon no Mago needs no introduction. In Shonen Onmyoji, the protagonist is Abe no Seimei's grandson and Abe no Yoshihira's nephew... Abe no Masahiro.
Aside from those who are well-versed in Japanese history, this foreigner, Loewe, knew virtually nothing about him.
However, in Nurarihyon no Mago, this guy is very similar to Rihan Nura.
They are both half-human and half-demon.
She appeared in the final battle arc 01 of the manga and clashed head-on with Rikuo Nura. Her ability is to manipulate the weather, and she is especially good at summoning lightning. She is very strong and guards the second floor of Spiral Castle from the bottom "997".
In the story, she acts solely according to her father Abe no Seimei's wish for "peace and quiet," and harbors deep hatred for her half-demon body, even feeling lost at times.
Lu Sheng, who is believed to have only one-quarter demon blood, is also one of those who "extremely hate their own bloodline".
However, Nura Rikuo pointed out that he did not hate bloodlines, and that Yoshihira was merely acting in accordance with Abe no Seimei's wishes rather than his own thoughts.
In the end, he was defeated by Rikuo Nura. He understood what Rikuo Nura said, and then opened the passage to the last level of Spiral Castle. He asked Rikuo Nura to uphold his wish to protect humans and yokai to the end and to pass it on to Abe no Seimei.
There have been rumors that the organizers of the Dark Martial Arts Tournament are likely a powerful demon.
But who would have thought that the organizer was actually Abe no Seimei's son?
This is very interesting.
Moreover, this Abe no Yoshihira had a peaceful aura and no demonic energy in his body, which was inconsistent with his half-human, half-demon identity.
There are only two possibilities that could cause this situation.
The first possibility is that he suppressed his demon bloodline with powerful magic.
The second possibility is that he used some powerful magic to completely eradicate his demon bloodline.
But the latter is more difficult than the former.
Therefore, Luo Wei speculated that it was most likely the former.
So Luo Wei deliberately increased his forces and thoroughly surveyed Abe no Yoshihira.
This confirmed his suspicions.
As expected, there was a huge seal inside Abe no Yoshihira's body, which tightly sealed his demon bloodline. If this seal was not broken, few people could tell that Abe no Yoshihira was half-human and half-demon.
This guy's Yin-Yang techniques are pretty good.
Come to think of it, Abe no Yoshihira was, after all, the son of Abe no Seimei, and he has lived from a thousand years ago to the present day.
It's only natural that they have some skills.
Just as Luo Wei was carefully observing Abe no Yoshihira, Toguro reported all his actions of the day to Abe no Yoshihira.
Abe no Kichihei calmly replied, "I understand. Thank you for your hard work, Toguro."
Toguro quickly replied, "These are things I should do."
Judging from his humble attitude, he was nothing like the arrogant character in the original work.
This is normal, after all, Toguro was facing an old monster who had lived for thousands of years, so it was only natural for him to be humble.
Abe Yoshihira said, "Tomorrow is the day of the Dark Martial Arts Tournament. I hope you can continue to preside over it and ensure the smooth progress of the tournament. There must be no mistakes."
"Our long-cherished wish of a thousand years is about to be fulfilled. At this critical moment, we must not make any mistakes."
Toguro kowtowed and shouted, "I swear on my life that I will never disappoint you, sir!"
Abe nods in satisfaction, chats with Toguro for a few more minutes, and then waves his hand.
"That's enough for today. You may leave."
Toguro kowtowed again, respectfully rose, and withdrew.
Luo Wei was very curious about what exactly Abe no Yoshihira's thousand-year-old wish was.
Could it be a resurrection of Abe no Seimei?
In the anime series "Nura: Rise of the Yokai Clan," Abe no Seimei departs from his usual righteous image and becomes the absolute biggest villain.
After death, he hoped that his mother, Hagoromo Gitsune, would resurrect him so that he could escape hell and return to the human world.
After surviving hell, he turned around and sent his mother, Hagoromo Gitsune, back to hell.
Then, leading his descendants, he planned to wipe out all humans and establish a world inhabited only by monsters.
He is ruthless and unscrupulous in achieving his goals; this is Abe no Seimei from "Nura: Rise of the Yokai Clan".
But the problem is, this is a crossover anime/manga world...
A crossover anime world stitched together from countless anime series.
It's important to know that Abe no Seimei is a very famous figure in Japanese history. Whenever you talk about yokai or onmyoji, you can't avoid mentioning this key figure.
There are just too many anime series about Abe no Seimei.
Besides the previously mentioned "Nurarihyon no Mago" and "Shonen Onmyoji".
The worldviews of Onmyoji: Twin Star Exorcists, Onmyoji: The Tale of One Hundred Demons, Drifters, Onmyoji 0, and many other works all mention Abe no Seimei.
This person has even been mentioned in the game Nioh 2 and the new Hong Kong comic series Dragon Tiger Gate.
Moreover, in these anime, games, and series, Abe no Seimei is basically portrayed as a righteous character.
Therefore, it is hard for Luo Wei to believe that Abe no Seimei, who stitches together this world, is the ultimate villain who attempts to eliminate humanity and establish a world of monsters.
Forget it, instead of guessing here, we might as well read Abe Yoshihira's memories.
Perhaps the answer lies within his memory.
So Luo Wei approached Abe Yoshihira, intending to take action against him.
Although Abe no Yoshihira is a human who has lived for over a thousand years, he is still too inexperienced compared to Lo Wei.
Lo Wei extended a finger and tapped Abe Yoshihira on the head.
Abe Yoshihira suddenly felt a strong drowsiness sweep over his brain.
"Oops."
As a top-tier Onmyoji, Abe no Yoshihira immediately realized that this drowsiness was far too intense and was not a normal phenomenon at all.
I've been infected myself.
This was unbelievable to him, considering that his strength, accumulated over thousands of years, had already reached the pinnacle of human power.
There are very few people who can defeat him.
I think of nothing but the gods.
But the question is, why would a deity appear here?
When did the Dark Martial Arts Tournament become so popular that even gods could be attracted to it?
Abe no Kichihei instinctively tried to form a hand seal, but the sudden drowsiness was too overwhelming. He closed his eyes halfway through the seal and fell into a deep sleep.
Luo Wei appeared out of thin air in front of Abe Yoshihira, grabbed Abe Yoshihira's brain, and skillfully used his powerful mental energy to enter his brain and begin reading Abe Yoshihira's memories.
In an instant, Luo Wei saw clearly all of Abe no Yoshihira's life experiences.
138. Split
A thousand years ago, Abe no Yoshihira was born as the son of Abe no Seimei and grew up under his father's tutelage.
As a son, Abe no Yoshihira was outstanding, inheriting the talents of Abe no Seimei.
Although the student did not surpass the teacher.
But in the eyes of outsiders, this guy is undoubtedly Seimei's son.
He is an extremely powerful Onmyoji.
In Abe no Yoshihira's eyes, his father, Abe no Seimei, was absolutely the top and most powerful Onmyoji.
Almost omnipotent.
He was also a very gentle person, always polite and refined, whether dealing with nobles or commoners, and never lost his temper.
In fact, Abe Yoshihira had never seen his father lose his temper.
Such a father should have shone brightly and lived on forever.
However, he died in a turmoil.
This made Abe Yoshihira
The person who brought about this turmoil was none other than one of the three great monsters in Japanese legend.
White-faced, golden-haired, nine-tailed fox, Tamamo-no-Mae.
This despicable fox transformed into a stunning beauty and infiltrated the palace. Relying on the Emperor's favor, she made things difficult for Abe no Seimei at every turn and even tried to kill him.
However, all of these attacks were neutralized by Abe no Seimei.
Then, Abe no Seimei turned his attention to the counterattack, revealing Tamamo-no-Mae's true identity in front of everyone and intending to eliminate her.
But no one expected that Tamamo-no-Mae would absorb the Emperor's power and gain the approval of the Three Sacred Treasures.
The three sacred treasures of Japan are the Kusanagi Sword, the Yasakani no Magatama, and the Yata no Kagami.
Among them, the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi, also known as the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi, is one of the three sacred treasures that have been passed down since the Age of Gods. Legend has it that it was a divine sword that appeared from the tail of the Yamata-no-Orochi when Susanoo slew it.
The power of the gods resides within the eight-foot-long magatama.
As for the Yata no Kagami (Eight-Foot Mirror), it is a powerful defensive magic weapon. When the emperor wears this magic weapon, he is immune to all evil.
However, these three divine artifacts have now fallen into Tamamo-no-Mae's hands, unleashing unprecedented power.
With the blessing of the three sacred treasures, Tamamo-no-Mae's strength has increased to an unprecedented level.
It is almost as powerful as the Yamata no Orochi of yesteryear.
Even Abe no Seimei was overwhelmed by Tamamo-no-Mae and was even driven to the brink of defeat at one point.
In the end, Abe no Seimei sacrificed his own power and soul to save Japan, perishing together with Tamamo-no-Mae.
Abe Yoshihira could not believe that his brilliant father had died like this.
He couldn't accept all this.
Therefore, after his father's death, he developed an obsession.
He wants to resurrect his father.
So Abe no Yoshihira collected his father's remnant soul and nurtured it, but Abe no Seimei's remnant soul was too weak.
With his strength, it was impossible for him to protect his father's remaining soul.
The father's lingering spirit continues to dissipate.
So Abe no Yoshihira came up with a plan to use the demonic power of monsters to fuel Abe no Seimei's cruelty.
After all, Abe no Seimei was the son of a fox, a half-human, half-demon being with demonic energy flowing through his body. It was not unbelievable that he would use demonic energy to nourish his remnant soul.
And the facts proved that Abe no Yoshihira's guess was correct; under the nourishment of demonic power, Abe no Seimei's remnant soul did not continue to dissipate.
The problem is that Abe no Seimei's lingering spirit did not continue to grow stronger.
To grow stronger, or even complete his goal, Abe no Seimei needed to acquire even more powerful demonic energy.
Thus began Abe no Yoshihira's journey of collecting yokai, defeating one yokai after another and sending them to Abe no Seimei as fuel for his fire.
In fact, not only he himself, but also his descendants were given similar orders by him.
However, this order naturally provoked a counterattack from the monsters.
The Abe family was once besieged.
It's too much of a stretch to fight against all the monsters in Japan by oneself.
Therefore, in order to protect his family from being completely wiped out by the monsters, Abe no Yoshihira had no choice but to split up the family.
