The Great Master of Gensokyo

"The ability to induce death, no wonder my uncle's health was like that..."

"Is there no way to solve this?" Hagoromo Gitsune frowned. If they could destroy Saigyou Ayakashi, the problem would be solved, right?

If only it were that simple. The Saigyou demon cannot be killed by human power, and it has the defensive and destructive power of a great demon of the divine realm.

Only by sealing it can the Journey to the West demon be subdued.

Chapter 106 An Unpleasant Guest Arrives

The power of the demons in the west is beyond the reach of human beings.

Even Yakumo Yukari doesn't have the ability, let alone Hagoromo Gitsune.

"Is there absolutely no solution?" Midori's face showed surprise as she looked at Saigyouji Hanyu and nodded, revealing a bewildered expression.

This is the first time that Saigyouji Hanyu has shown such a troubled expression.

"Is there anything we can do to help?" Hagoromo Gitsune asked Saigyouji Hanyu. She wanted to comfort him, but then she remembered that there were other people around, so she blushed slightly and withdrew her hand.

"You don't need to worry about these things," Saigyouji Yuusuke shook his head and replied to Hagoromo Gitsune.

The matter of the Journey to the West demon must be resolved eventually; if he can't resolve it now, he will surely be able to in the future.

So all we can do now is maintain the seal on the Saigyu Ayakashi.

The Saigyou Ayakashi lacks a 'spirit,' which is why it can be sealed away. However, it is precisely because the Saigyou Ayakashi lacks a 'spirit' that it has caused a curse on the Saigyouji bloodline.

This curse will end completely when either Saigyouji Saint or Saigyouji Yuyuko's life comes to an end.

However, in that case, the Saigyou Ayakashi would truly become the Saigyou Ayakashi.

A great demon at the divine realm level is almost comparable to a true god.

"Moreover, that monster cherry tree is a great demon of the divine realm."

"I see, then that is indeed a bit difficult." Although Hagoromo Gitsune wanted to help, after hearing what Saigyouji Hanyu said, she really didn't have a suitable solution.

"Um, Master Yuzuru, may we go see your sister?" Midori asked hurriedly. After all, she was Saigyouji Yuzuru's sister, and Midori cared about her a lot.

If he were to marry into the family, Yuyuko would at least be his sister-in-law.

"She's resting now, let's do it later," Saigyouji Yuusuke coughed, explaining Yuyuko's situation. Konpaku Youki, standing nearby, appeared somewhat nervous.

"Is Miss alright, Young Master?" Soul Demon asked.

"It's been resolved." He called out, and the spider lily appeared in everyone's sight.

Although Cui Zi looked somewhat disappointed, she nodded understandingly.

"So, you have another beautiful female shikigami by your side?" Hagoromo Gitsune snorted lightly, emphasizing the word "beautiful female shikigami".

The spider lily beside Saigyouji Hanyu is just as beautiful as the demon sword princess.

Yingcao is cute, Xue Nu is aloof, and Feiju is pure and devoted.

"They are indeed very beautiful," Midori said softly, suddenly wishing she were a few years older, since the girls around Saigyouji Hanyu were all beautiful older sisters.

Cui Zi felt that her position was becoming increasingly precarious.

"Ahem." Saigyouji Yuzuru coughed lightly, changing the subject, "Speaking of which, nothing has happened at home recently, has it?"

Saigyouji Hanyu questioned Konpaku Youki, expressing his concern that his situation might influence the Saigyouji family's interests, particularly those of Abe no Seimei or Minamoto no Yorimitsu.

"Everything is normal at the Saigyouji family, young master. Please rest assured. With the barrier set up by the master, it is impossible for ordinary people to offend the Saigyouji family. The matter of the territory is being handled by the branch family."

Although they are not in Heian-kyo, the Saigyouji family still has its own territory; otherwise, how could they maintain the operating expenses of the main family and branch families?

"As for what the young master has been doing outside, the master is already aware of it," said Soul Phantom, explaining to Saigyouji Yuusuke. "If the young master needs the Saigyouji family's power, he can use it at any time."

"I understand." Saigyouji Yuzuru closed his eyes and thought for a moment.

Saigyouji Shonin had unconditional trust in Saigyouji Hanyu.

Simultaneously.

"Such a dense aura of death. I never imagined this place was once Saigyouji Castle." Abe no Yoshihira sighed. The area where the Saigyouji family sealed the youkai Sakura was originally a small town.

However, it was the appearance of the youkai Sakura that caused a small town to become extremely desolate, resulting in the deaths of countless humans.

"Does the Onmyoji who killed the two great generals live in a place like this?" Abe no Yoshihira asked suspiciously, finding it hard to believe.

"The main family and branch family of the Saigyouji family are separate. The Great Master Saigyouji Sage and Lord Seimei's teacher sealed the legendary Saigyou Demon, and the Saigyouji Sage has been stationed here ever since," Gou Chen said, explaining what he knew.

"You must not be careless. This time, we are dealing with someone who is no ordinary person. The one who can deceive Lady Hagoromo Gitsune is no ordinary Onmyoji," Gou Chen reminded Abe no Yoshihira, urging him not to let his guard down and slowing him down.

“Yoshihira understands.” Abe Yoshihira nodded, revealing a serious expression.

Behind the two were not only the Onmyoji of the Abe clan, but also the demons and monsters belonging to Abe no Seimei's camp.

These numbers number in the thousands.

The arrival of a monster will give advance warning to the celestial phenomena and the spiritual energy in the air, causing strange fluctuations.

...

Saigyouji Hanyu shook his head, about to say no.

Saigyouji Yuusuke frowned slightly, as if he had sensed something, and chuckled softly, "Yoki, no one can break through the barrier set up by my father, right?"

"It is still possible to break through; a powerful demon can dismantle the barrier defense."

As Konpaku Youki answered Saigyouji Hanyu, a look of astonishment suddenly appeared on his face. Outside the Saigyouji family's territory barrier, terrifying darkness gathered.

"You can feel the intruders at our door, can't you?" A faint smile appeared on Saigyouji Yuusuke's lips. He had only been back at the Saigyouji family home for a short time, and already someone had come looking for him?

Even though it was several miles away, Saigyouji Hanyu could feel it quite clearly.

Konpaku Youki was about to turn around and wake Saigyouji Shojin to deal with it, but Saigyouji Habu waved his hand, stopping Konpaku Youki. "There's no need for my father to know about such a trivial matter. Let me deal with those guys."

"Let me get involved too."

"Wait for me, Lord Yuzuru!"

Midori and Hagoromo Gitsune followed, with Yoto Hime and Higanbana close behind. The demons and Onmyoji of Heian-kyo were heading towards the Saigyouji family's residence.

"Lord Yuzuru, there are so many demons!" As Midori spoke, visible darkness enveloped the sky and the earth, and the sunlight was distorted under this power.

This wasn't the first time Saigyouji Hanyu had witnessed the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons, and his expression was somewhat indifferent compared to before.

"Let's prepare a welcoming ceremony."

These numbers of demons are no match for Saigyouji Hanyu.

"A welcoming ceremony? Not a bad idea." Hagoromo Gitsune's eyes lit up, and her jet-black demonic power coiled around her katana.

The aura of the Lord of Demons and Monsters converged!

Chapter 107 Defeat (Part Two)

Gou Chen seemed to be in a dreamlike state, and was somewhat lost in thought upon seeing this scene.

"Am I dreaming?"

The immense fear that Hagoromo Gitsune stirred up really frightened him; the unspoken terror chilled him to the bone.

This power is the aura of a great demon.

She was like the embodiment of ultimate darkness, and boundless fear spread around her.

"Lord Gouchen, this power is from a great demon, isn't it?!" The oppressive aura of the Lord of Demons and Monsters was easily felt.

A hundred ghosts swirled around, and the evil spirits that followed Gouchen were plunged into great chaos.

The lord of demons and monsters possesses a powerful aura over lower-ranking monsters.

This is the power of the Lord of Demons and Monsters, for the Lord of Demons and Monsters possesses the strength and charisma to subdue all ghosts.

"Why didn't anyone tell me that Yu Yi Hu became a great demon?" Gou Chen's mind gradually became confused.

"Lord Gouchen, what do we do now?" The Lord of Demons and Monsters, then the Hundred Demons Night Parade he brought cannot suppress Hagoromo Gitsune, let alone that Onmyoji.

Abe Yoshihira was even more astonished and hadn't recovered at all.

This is Saigyouji Hanyu's place.

Yaodao-hime gripped her sword tightly, her gaze fixed ahead, ready to strike at any moment. "My lord, shall Yaodao-hime draw her sword?"

This place is not only home to Hagoromo Gitsune, a powerful demon.

"The Red Spider Lily can also act at any time." The Red Spider Lily beside her nodded. She was transformed from the Red Spider Lily of the Underworld and had a natural ability to restrain creatures in the mortal world.

As long as Saigyouji Hanyu gives the order, the two shikigami will act at any time.

"Defeat them." Without hesitation, he ordered the two shikigami to attack. Saigyouji Hanyu didn't care about the consequences of daring to come to the Saigyouji family's territory with such a large number of Hyakki Yagyō (Night Parade of One Hundred Demons).

No matter who comes to invade, Saigyouji Hanyu will tell them that the Saigyouji family is not to be trifled with.

And so, a sea of ​​blood-red flowers bloomed on the ground.

The red spider lily, the flower of the other shore, offers death.

The Night Parade of One Hundred Demons gradually retreated. Faced with the blood-red sea of ​​spider lilies, even Gou Chen, with all his courage, dared not touch it easily, let alone the other members of the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons.

The Onmyoji (yin-yang masters) of the Abe family, who were following the crowd, were thrown into panic.

"Lord Gouchen!"

"We don't want to die..."

The blood-red sea of ​​flowers swallowed up the Onmyoji.

Yaodao-hime and Midori began to vanquish the demons in their field of vision, with Himari following in Midori's footsteps.

Despite possessing a divine artifact bestowed upon her by Saigyouji Hanyu, Himari, a mid-level yokai, still displayed formidable strength.

...

"We are honored to have you here from afar. Do you enjoy this welcoming ceremony?"

A chaotic storm raged, and Saigyouji Yuusuke chuckled softly, gazing at the Gouchen before him.

He took a step forward, and the Fire Spirit appeared behind Saigyouji Hanyu, protecting him.

"You are... the legendary Onmyoji!?"

Gou Chen had indeed heard of Saigyouji Yuusuke's name, and had also been reminded by Abe no Seimei that Saigyouji Yuusuke's strength should not be underestimated.

However, he underestimated the opponent he was facing.

"Tsk tsk, so I'm already this famous?" Saigyouji Habu smiled, stroking his chin. "Are you on Minamoto no Yorimitsu's side, or Abe no Seimei's side?"

"If you give up resisting, I might give you a chance to live." In some ways, Saigyouji Hanyu was still quite merciful.

"I am one of Lord Seimei's twelve divine generals, how could I possibly submit to other Onmyoji?"

Gouchen roared in anger, as if Saigyouji Yuusuke had anticipated this outcome.

"He's courting death." Shaking his head, the fire spirit attached itself to his body, and Saigyouji Yuusuke gripped the Futsu-no-Mitama sword tightly.

Saigyouji Yuuki, with overwhelming momentum, headed towards Gouchen.

The earth split open, and a dragon formed from the land stood in front of Gouchen.

"Isn't this guy an Onmyoji?"

Gou Chen was forced into a retreat by Saigyouji Yuusuke, and a bead of cold sweat slid down his cheek.

"I am indeed an Onmyoji, but are Onmyoji only allowed to fight with spells? That's underestimating Onmyoji."

He laughed out loud and threw out a spell talisman with a flick of his left hand.

"The Five Elements dance wildly, may your wish be fulfilled!"

The talisman disappeared into the dragon, turning into a swamp that almost made Gouchen sink. This startled Gouchen, who immediately soared into the sky.

Suddenly, huge vines shot up from the ground, grabbing at Gouchen like a hand.

This was a move Ashiya Dōman used against Saigōji Hōshū, and now it has become his shikigami against Seimei.

"No!" Just as he tried to break free, Gou Chen's feet were bound by vines, and flames began to burn, gradually spreading across Gou Chen's body.
