The Great Master of Gensokyo

After all, one shot can affect the whole situation.

If something goes wrong, that would be bad.

However, the summoning ritual was successful. And Abe no Seimei's extraordinary martial prowess made Saigyouji Hanyu feel threatened.

Rather than cooperating with Abe no Seimei and risking a dangerous situation, Saigyouji Habu chose to go all out to kill Abe no Seimei.

Great chaos is the foundation of great order, and Saigyouji Hanyu can use this opportunity to clean up the mess.

Chapter 123 A Changing Situation

Saigyouji Hanyu never places his hopes on others.

The chaos has already begun, so only he can clean up the mess.

"But the price paid was truly enormous." The battle with Abe no Seimei was the most difficult one for Saigyouji Habu.

If it weren't for the protection of Miketsu's power, Saigyouji Hanyu would have had a hard time continuing the fight if he had activated the body of Taizan Fukun Festival.

However, because of this, Saigyouji Hanyu defeated the first truly powerful enemy since he traveled through the world.

Changes in strength are reflected in the data.

A complete data panel was displayed before Saigyouji Hanyu's eyes.

This data panel is vastly different from those of the past.

...

Experience points were displayed as units of magical power and units of sorcery power, with magical power units being converted into sorcery power.

If the number of spell power decreases by 45000 units, the number of magic power units will increase, and vice versa.

If combined, Saigyouji Hanyu's two power units would be around 110000.

My level is locked and can't be upgraded anymore?

Saigyouji Hanyu tried to ask the system.

[Requires an update to an older system version]

Okay, Saigyouji Hanyu understands what's going on. Let's wait for the update to finish before we talk about it.

The current system is still the old version.

"This conversion of cursed power units into magical power units seems to indicate that it is indeed heading in the direction of Shaman King."

Saigyouji Hanyu has also confirmed his enhancement path.

The battle with Abe no Seimei brought Saigyouji Hanyu great gains, the most important of which was obtaining the spirit beast, the Azure Dragon.

With the combined power of the Azure Dragon of the East and Miketsu, they should be able to handle Minamoto no Yorimitsu's attack.

"How is Heian-kyo doing now?" Back to reality, Saigyouji Hanyu focused his attention on the situation in Heian-kyo.

"With Seimei's death, the Onmyoji group in Heian-kyo fell into chaos, and the demons and monsters that originally belonged to Heian-kyo also caused countless disturbances."

"My demons and monsters have dealt with many groups of demons, but the Onmyoji will need to be handled by you, Yuusuke."

Hagoromo Gitsune told him everything that happened after Saigyouji Yuki fell into a coma.

The death of the Great Onmyoji had a huge impact on Heian-kyo.

The group of yokai, who were loyal to the Great Onmyoji, naturally became arrogant without his restraint.

As the lord of all demons and monsters, Hagoromo Gitsune has an obligation to quell the chaos caused by the monster group.

"I understand." Saigyouji Yuusuke nodded. Hagoromo Gitsune was, after all, a yokai and couldn't interfere too much in human affairs.

Therefore, Hagoromo Gitsune chose to wait for Saigyouji Hanyu to wake up and see what he thought.

The fact that Abe no Seimei's twelve generals are still alive is also a huge problem. Although the Abe clan harbored resentment after Seimei's death, Hagoromo Gitsune didn't hold much resentment towards him.

"Has the Abe clan caused any trouble?" he asked Hagoromo Gitsune.

"Not only the Abe clan, but also the Onmyoji families originally controlled by the Abe clan, and the entire Heian-kyo are in a state of panic..."

After all, with Abe no Seimei's death, a power vacuum emerged in Heian-kyo.

With the arrival of the Genji and the changing of the guard, they would naturally be bewildered.

They trusted Abe no Seimei more to maintain the overall situation of the Onmyoji than Saigyouji Habu.

"Are Seimei's shikigami still around?"

Saigyouji Hanyu seemed to have an idea in mind.

"Lord Yuusuke, would you like to meet those shikigami?" Yaodao-hime asked, as she was the one responsible for the handover and communication with Abe no Seimei's shikigami.

"Let's meet."

Saigyouji Hanyu smiled and immediately had an idea.

He wasn't worried that the twelve gods would choose to take revenge on him, but they would have to have the ability to do so.

Besides, the Abe family will likely choose to remain neutral and preserve their family amidst the chaos in Heian-kyo.

However, it's not that easy.

If the Abe family wants to preserve its lineage, it must choose to cooperate with Saigyouji Hanyu.

Saigyouji Hanyu's mind worked quickly as he planned his next move.

...

Abe's house.

Yoshihira Abe presided over the meeting of the entire Abe family.

The twelve remaining generals of Seimei then took their seats in the next position.

"Lord Seimei is dead. Everyone understands the significance of this, right?" Abe Yoshihira said in a deep voice to the members of the Abe clan present. "With Lord Seimei dead, my Abe family will inevitably be attacked by all sides, and the once powerful Onmyoji family may decline from this point on."

"For the sake of Lord Seimei's future resurrection and the ensuing chaos in Heian-kyo, let's discuss what to do now."

The future of the family will be decided at this meeting.

Yoshihira Abe sighed softly, worried that the Abe family would decline under his leadership.

Therefore, Abe no Yoshihira can only rely on the twelve divine generals left behind by Seimei.

"Lord Seimei is really dead..."

"The Abe family is about to decline. Who can kill Lord Seimei?"

Many people are still unable to accept this fact, and their minds are blank.

"Lord Seimei is really dead. And his death is inextricably linked to that man from Hagoromo Gitsune, Saigyouji Hanyu."

The Empress's words were filled with hatred for Saigyouji Hanyu and Hagoromo Gitsune.

"Who is Saigyouji Hanyu...?"

"It is said that he was Lord Seimei's junior brother and Kamo no Tadayuki's second disciple."

"But with our strength, we may not be able to avenge Lord Seimei."

Seimei's twelve divine generals couldn't help but sigh.

With Tengshe dead, Gouchen gone, Zhuque dead, and Liuhe vanished, the remaining twelve divine generals, apart from Tianhou and Taiyin, two shikigami who were relatively close to Abe no Seimei, are only Taishang, Baihu, Tiankong, and Xuanwu.

The rest all perished in the war against the Genji.

Their individual strength was only at the peak of high-level demons, not even close to that of Hagoromo Gitsune.

Yu Yi Fox is the true lord of all demons and monsters, and her strength is truly unfathomable.

Needless to say, Saigyouji Hanyu has a woman by his side, and there's also a shikigami of the same great demon level. If the intelligence is correct, in order to avenge Seimei, it would probably take the loss of all twelve divine generals.

It's not that they value their lives, but that the price isn't worth it.

"Here, I propose that we cooperate with the Genji clan and allow them to take control of Heian-kyo."

"With Lord Seimei dead, the Abe family will inevitably be unable to maintain its status as a powerful Onmyoji clan."

"Only the Genji have the power to defeat that despicable Onmyoji."

Taiyin spoke up and made the suggestion. Some of the other twelve generals were interested, but the members of the Abe family had different thoughts.

“No, if the Genji clan were to truly take control of Heian-kyo, there would be no chance for my Abe family to rise to prominence.”

"Even if we want to revive Lord Seimei in the future, it will be extremely difficult."

A member of the Abe family spoke up, saying that the war had caused the Abe and Minamoto families to lose many Onmyoji (yin-yang masters), and that both sides harbored prejudices against each other, so how could they possibly abandon their prejudices and choose to cooperate?

For the Abe family, the primary concern is how to preserve the Onmyoji clan.

Chapter 124 Discussion (Seeking full subscription)

The Abe family needs to preserve their lineage.

Their strength was built on the existence of Abe no Seimei. Without Abe no Seimei's power, the Abe clan could not possibly regain the absolute authority they once had.

"But, are we just going to leave Lord Seimei's revenge unfulfilled?" The Empress was somewhat unwilling, and even Taiyin was a little reluctant.

Seimei's death caused many of the Abe clan's plans to fall through.

For example, the Taishan Fujun Festival was used to grant immortality to the Abe clan.

"It's all that man's fault." Taiyin clenched her fists, her heart filled with rage. She hadn't witnessed Seimei's death, and she believed that if she had been there, she might have had a chance to save Lord Seimei.

The power of Seimei's shikigami towards Saigyouji Hanyu is unknown.

"The clan's strength can no longer withstand the depletion, and the war with the Minamoto clan can no longer be sustained."

"My lords, it's time to make a decision."

Abe Yoshihira began, his mood somewhat heavy.

"In order to revive Lord Seimei in the future, we must make a choice, otherwise the history of the Abe family will be erased if we cannot protect our family."

That kind of future is not what Abe Yoshihira hopes for.

"Hmm..." The diva frowned and bit her lip tightly.

She was very unwilling, truly unwilling.

The Abe family and the twelve surviving generals are all intelligent people. If the family cannot be preserved, then sacrifices must be made.

"White Tiger, what do you say?" Taiyin's gaze fell on the White Tiger in front of her.

The other shikigami have not yet spoken.

"Lord Yoshihira is right, we agree with Lord Yoshihira's opinion."

"The most important thing now is to ensure the continuation of the Abe family and to complete the Taishan Fujun ceremony in preparation for the future resurrection of Lord Seimei."
