"Ah, you and all of you, one day I will return again!"
Abe no Seimei glanced at Midori, then at Kasumigaoka Utaha, and roared hysterically.
His voice echoed in the air, filled with endless resentment.
Looking at the hysterical Abe no Seimei, Suiko truly never imagined that he would one day fall to such a state.
Once upon a time, in the cultivation world, Abe no Seimei was an unparalleled figure, and countless people held him in awe.
But now, he has fallen into darkness and has been completely stripped of his power, leaving him as wretched as a stray dog.
Midori had no idea that Abe no Seimei's body was entirely filled with demonic power.
He wasn't a pure human at all; he was a half-demon.
Otherwise, her pure spiritual power wouldn't have completely wiped out all her strength.
"you…"
Just as Suiko was about to say something, a bullet suddenly whizzed past from the side, traveling at extremely high speed and piercing through Abe no Seimei's head.
Abe no Seimei's blood splattered on the ground, and his pupils turned to Tokisaki Kurumi, who was holding a flintlock pistol.
He stared intently at her, as if trying to memorize her appearance.
His eyes were filled with resentment and unwillingness; he could not accept that he had been ended like this until his death.
"Kurumi?!"
Midori suddenly turned her head, her gaze falling directly on Kurumi Tokisaki. She never expected Kurumi to make a move.
She still had many questions in her mind and wanted to find out from Abe no Seimei why he had fallen to such a low point.
Abe no Seimei was once a highly respected Onmyoji (yin-yang master). He led a group of Onmyoji and shrine maidens to exorcise demons and protect countless people from monsters.
Moreover, he selflessly passed on all his magical skills, cultivating generation after generation of outstanding Onmyoji and priestesses.
Even if he is a half-demon, so what? Didn't he do a good job?
But now, he is obsessed with ruling Kyoto, and has become so unfamiliar and terrifying.
Cui Zi couldn't understand what had caused such a dramatic change in him.
"Oh dear, Midori-chan, what were you saying to him? Aren't you afraid your darling will get jealous?"
Tokisaki Kurumi's lips curled into a sly smile, the short flintlock pistol in her hand swinging casually.
He gently blew on the muzzle of the gun, which had no smoke at all, then winked at Cui Zi playfully.
As she spoke, she deliberately glanced at Xue Lingfeng beside her, her eyes full of teasing and mischief.
“My darling is extremely possessive. If Midori-chan doesn’t behave, she’ll definitely get whipped by her again.”
Kurumi Tokisaki continued speaking in that teasing voice, which was clear and playful.
These words startled Cui Zi, and the image of Xue Lingfeng's domineering and forceful demeanor instantly flashed into her mind.
Involuntarily, she turned her head slightly and glanced at Xue Lingfeng.
Kurumi was absolutely right; this guy's possessiveness was ridiculously strong, and he paid extra attention to their every move.
However, Cui Zi quickly came to her senses. Just now, when Shi Yu was beating up the demons and monsters,
This scoundrel didn't seem to have any particular reaction, so why did Tokisaki Kurumi make it sound like he had committed a serious crime when he just wanted to ask Abe no Seimei a few questions?
Thinking this, Midori's gaze fell on Tokisaki Kurumi again, her eyes filled with a hint of dissatisfaction.
"Oh, Midori-chan, don't look at me like that, I'm getting shy too."
As if sensing Midori's gaze, Tokisaki Kurumi quickly covered her cheek, tilted her head, and put on a shy expression.
But her sparkling eyes revealed an undisguised smile. Then, she secretly glanced at Abe no Seimei, who was burning not far from Midori, and changed the subject, "Midori-chan, this guy still has ideas."
Midori instinctively turned around and saw Abe no Seimei's body rapidly burning in the raging flames.
The flames had an eerie bluish-black hue, as if they were karmic fire from hell.
Immediately afterwards, his blood transformed into a pentagram emitting an eerie light.
As the pentagram appeared, the ground began to tremble violently, and a huge crack slowly opened up.
A dark and eerie aura swept over them, sending chills down their spines.
Cui Zi recognized what it was; the aura emanating from the crack came from the underworld—the legendary place where the dead are reborn.
The underworld has always been a dangerous place, inhabited by all sorts of demons, monsters, and evil souls.
If they were allowed to come to the human world, they would surely bring a terrible disaster.
A wisp of Abe no Seimei's soul, like a cunning ghost, swiftly hid within the pentagram and then rushed headlong into the rift to the underworld without hesitation.
"You despicable creatures, I will return again a thousand years from now!"
The resentful and threatening voice came from the crack.
"call out!"
Almost simultaneously, Kurumi Tokisaki's flintlock pistol fired another dazzling beam of light, which instantly surged into the rift in the underworld.
Immediately afterwards, a piercing scream came from the depths of the crevice.
With that scream, Abe no Seimei's soul aura completely dissipated from the crack, vanishing without a trace.
"If you get away, how can I face my darling?"
Kurumi Tokisaki dropped her playful smile, her eyes flashing with a fierce killing intent.
If Abe no Seimei's wisp of soul were to escape, I might be punished again.
Although, the thought of that kind of punishment actually stirred a faint sense of anticipation in Tokisaki Kurumi's heart.
"Kurumi..."
Midori looked at Kurumi Tokisaki, her lips moved slightly as if she wanted to say something, but in the end it turned into a long sigh.
"The underworld..."
Cui Zi's gaze fell once again on the dark and gloomy rift in the underworld.
"His last resort was to enter the underworld, and he even said he would return after a thousand years. Could he possibly be resurrected?"
Kurumi Tokisaki turned to look at Midori. Midori had told them about the underworld before. The underworld is just a place where the dead go, how could it possibly bring people back to life?
“There is a technique called the Taishan Fujun Festival that allows reincarnation. If this wisp of his soul were to escape, then Abe no Seimei could indeed create a large number of monsters in the underworld and make a comeback a thousand years later.”
Midori explained to Tokisaki Kurumi that when Abe no Seimei mentioned returning after a thousand years, she immediately thought of this legendary forbidden technique.
The Taishan Fujun Sacrifice is an extremely evil ritual that requires the lives of countless living beings as offerings. Once successfully performed, the sacrificed person may be reincarnated and greatly enhanced in strength.
Cui Zi's fingers shone with spiritual light, sealing the rift in the underworld; otherwise, the monsters of the underworld would have rushed out and wreaked havoc on the human world.
"Since you're afraid that the monsters in the underworld will break out, why don't you just rule the underworld?"
Suddenly, Cui Zi felt herself fall into a familiar embrace, and a pair of strong hands gently wrapped around her slender waist from behind.
Cui Zi's body stiffened instantly. She knew without turning around that it must be Xue Lingfeng.
These past few days, Xue Lingfeng has always hugged her from behind and entered from behind.
Thinking of this, Cui Zi felt her face burning and her body becoming incredibly hot.
"…What's the meaning?"
Cui Zi stammered, her voice tinged with panic and confusion.
She was a priestess whose duty had always been to protect the human world and fight against monsters; she never thought of ruling the underworld.
The underworld is already under the control of the Lord of the Underworld; it's not her place to interfere.
"Of course, my dear wants Midori-chan to rule the Underworld!" Tokisaki Kurumi grinned and came closer, taking Midori's hand and whispering, as if it were the most ordinary thing in the world.
"The underworld has its rulers; it's none of my business to worry about it." Cui Zi quickly shook her head and closed the door.
"It's just the underworld, surely my Cui Zi can manage it?"
Xue Lingfeng's voice rang in Cui Zi's ear, and his warm breath gently brushed against her earlobe, causing her body to tremble involuntarily.
"Don't do anything malicious on purpose."
Cui Zi turned her head slightly, looked back at Xue Lingfeng, and her eyes held a hint of reproach.
She really didn't understand why Xue Lingfeng always liked to blow on her earlobe at times like this, making her heartbeats all over the place each time.
"Because Cui Zi is the most perceptive here."
Xue Lingfeng seemed to be teasing Cui Zi on purpose, and gently blew a breath into her earlobe.
"You rascal, let's get down to business, stop this."
Cui Zi held Xue Lingfeng's hand tightly, trying to calm herself down and prevent Xue Lingfeng from causing any more trouble.
Chapter 265 Kurumi: Darling, this is to create a goddess!
"I'm not joking, I'm talking about serious matters." Xue Lingfeng tilted her head slightly, her warm breath gently brushing against Cui Zi's cheek as she spoke softly.
Midori sighed helplessly and replied, "I am a shrine maiden from the human world, and I have never had anything to do with the affairs of the underworld."
Xue Lingfeng raised an eyebrow and asked in return, "But Cui Zi, are you really not worried that monsters from the underworld will invade the human world and disturb its peace?"
These words were like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, instantly alerting Cui Zi. Her eyes narrowed sharply, filled with doubt and confusion.
"Could something have happened in the underworld? How could it lead to a connection between the two realms?"
Cui Zi asked anxiously, "Once the underworld and the human world are connected, the human world will surely fall into chaos."
Xue Lingfeng slowly spoke: "Naturally, there is a wicked fellow who is trying to travel freely between the underworld and the human world."
Upon hearing this, Cui Zi was taken aback and quickly searched her memory for relevant information, but she had never heard of such a person in recent times.
"Who on earth has such audacity and ability?"
"That guy obtained the Netherworld Stone, gaining the ability to freely travel between the two realms. He's ambitious and definitely won't stay put; who knows what kind of trouble he'll cause."
Cui Zi's voice was clear and resolute: "If he dares to come, I will definitely not let him go. But what does that have to do with letting me control the Underworld?"
I truly cannot understand what you are plotting. I am merely a priestess from the human realm; why would I want to control the underworld?
Her eyes were full of confusion and bewilderment as she tried to find the answer in Xue Lingfeng's face.
"Does the Demon God really have such an audacious individual?" Kasumigaoka Utaha glanced at Yukine Fuu, who was tightly hugging Midori.
Seeing the intimate posture of the two, she couldn't help but recall the absurd things that had happened in the past few days. Her face flushed slightly, and she quickly turned her head away.
She was secretly annoyed, not knowing what was wrong with her, her mind seemed to be out of control, and she kept involuntarily recalling those images.
Xue Lingfeng looked at Kasumigaoka Utaha, who had her arms crossed, and a smile appeared on her lips as she teased:
"Of course there are such guys. Do you think I'm making things up? Shiyu, you haven't been driven crazy by me these past few days and you think I made everything up on purpose, have you?"
As he spoke, a burning light reappeared in his eyes as he openly gazed at Kasumigaoka Utaha's increasingly mature and alluring body.
At this moment, she possessed both the youthful vitality of a young girl and the subtle charm of a mature woman. In Xue Lingfeng's eyes, she was simply perfect and flawless.
Sure enough, the young woman I created is the best.
I know exactly where her every point lies, and I know how she needs to be treated.
Moreover, it exudes youthful energy, which is wonderful.
The taste of poetry feathers, especially the cultivation version, is truly indescribable.
Kasumigaoka Utaha noticed the intensity in Yukine Fuu's eyes, and bravely endured his unrestrained scrutiny.
A faint blush rose to her cheeks, and she spat at him playfully, saying:
"You demon lord whose mind is always filled with these lewd thoughts, I'm not going to let you drive me crazy!"
"Hmph, who among us doesn't know your tricks? Maybe you deliberately made up this guy so that Cui Zi could rule the Underworld and achieve your ulterior motives."
She became more and more agitated as she spoke, her eyes flashing with a sharp light, as if she had already seen through Xue Lingfeng's thoughts.
"It must be because you felt that the shrine maiden version of Midori wasn't enough to satisfy you, so you wanted to make her a high and mighty goddess."
You feel more accomplished and have more of a thrill when you're making fun of women of such high status, don't you?
Immediately, Kasumigaoka Utaha put her hands on her hips, glared at him without fear of his gaze, and spoke sharply.
Upon hearing Kasumigaoka Utaha's bold remarks, the women around her were all taken aback.
