Judging from our previous interactions and his behavior just now, he is clearly a mature and reliable adult.
Therefore, there are some things she can ask without any reservations.
Yin Kong thought about it and decided to tell the truth:
"In my opinion, it's very dangerous."
Because what this mother wanted to hear from him was clearly not some insincere comfort:
"Although I have never seen the Shikon Jewel, even a fragment can attract a yokai like the Reverse Hair Yura, which shows that it is indeed a treasure coveted by countless yokai."
These monsters are not only powerful, but most of them are also skilled in all sorts of schemes and tricks.
With Kagome and Inuyasha's current strength and experience, they are probably not enough to deal with these threats.
Especially Kagome, even though she possesses immense hidden power, she is still just a mortal.
Any strong adult could easily defeat her, let alone those cunning monsters.
Of course, since this is a world of "Detective Conan" and he has refreshed the world mission related to the other party, Yin Kong's attitude is relatively optimistic.
Based on Yin Kong's experience, these two don't seem like the kind of characters who would die as soon as they appeared.
Even if you're going to get stabbed, at least wait until the mission is almost over before doing so.
"But I don't think that only Kagome and Inuyasha were able to cross that ancient well. It's just a simple coincidence or accident. So I'm more inclined to believe that Kagome is someone who is protected by fate, and collecting the Shikon Jewel may be her destined mission."
“I see, thank you for your answer.” Mrs. Higurashi carefully considered the meaning behind Yin Kong’s words, and then bowed her head again to plead, “I understand that this may be a bit unreasonable, but please, for the sake of a mother, help them.”
[A mother's request].
Seeing this suddenly appearing task, Yin Kong sighed inwardly and nodded, saying:
“You really don’t need to do this. Even if you didn’t say it, I have great faith in Kagome and Inuyasha’s potential. If the end of this mission is sacrifice, I will do my best to help them change that fate.”
Mrs. Higurashi clearly didn't understand the meaning behind Yoon Sora's promise, but she could sense the goodwill in his words:
"I understand, thank you so much, we simply don't know how to repay you."
Just then, Grandpa Higurashi suddenly slapped his thigh and exclaimed excitedly:
“I’ve got it. Our Higurashi family has a mysterious treasure passed down through generations. Our ancestral teachings say that it must never be opened in private. It can only be taken out by a wandering Taoist priest from a foreign land whom we are grateful to.”
Chapter 95 An Unexpected Gift
The grass at dusk suddenly realized:
"No wonder, Grandpa, you know about the [Wandering Taoist Priest]."
It turns out that the relevant information was mentioned in one of their family heirlooms.
Wait a minute! A wandering Taoist priest from a foreign land, who deserves our gratitude?
The naive Higurashi Sota might not have thought much of it, but the clever Mrs. Higurashi and Yukino Yukinoshita glanced at Inuyasha, who was also deep in thought, and felt that this might not be a simple coincidence.
After all, this indication is a bit too clear.
Combined with what Yin Kong said about a predestined mission, could it be that—
Yin Kong had obviously thought of this as well, and his eyes were full of anticipation as he watched as the old man Higurashi took out a long-forgotten wooden box from the shrine's storeroom.
“This is it.” Under everyone’s curious gaze, Grandpa Higurashi brushed the dust off the wooden box and explained, “However, this box is actually locked, and even we don’t know how to open it.”
Looking at the somewhat familiar, exquisitely crafted stone lock, Yin Kong was completely certain of his guess:
"Leave the rest to me. I think I know how to unlock this stone lock."
Under Yukino's knowing look, Yin Kong followed Zhong Li's instructions and disassembled the stone lock step by step.
Seeing his confident and composed demeanor, even if the old man was slow-witted, he couldn't possibly be completely oblivious.
Under the tense yet expectant gazes of everyone, Yin Kong gently opened the wooden box.
However, his expression immediately changed upon seeing the contents of the box:
"This is--?!"
Yukinoshita had never seen such a shocked and excited expression on Yoon-kong's face before.
Even when they were attacked by monsters not long ago, Yin Kong remained very calm.
"Wow, this bow is so beautiful!"
Higurashi Sota couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. If the [Oath of the Sharpshooter] that Yin Kong gave to Kagome was already of excellent quality, then...
Even without those special effects, its design and craftsmanship make it an absolute rare gem.
For ordinary people, such a longbow is more than qualified to be a family heirloom, passed down from generation to generation.
However, in front of this longbow in the box, which radiates a mysterious light and seems to have a real blue water flowing through its body, the originally "delicate and pretty" [Oath of the Sharpshooter] instantly becomes an ordinary country bumpkin.
Yin Kong and the others were right; the box did indeed contain a longbow.
However, they were all wrong, because it wasn't the "Oath of the Sharpshooter," but rather—
"Mr. Yin Kong, do you recognize this bow?"
Yukinoshita Yukino asked curiously.
Yin Kong immediately reached out, took out the weapon from the box, and held it in his hand.
Instantly, an unprecedented, immense aura, like a mighty river, poured into his body, causing his power to surge wildly and uncontrollably!
Yin Kong, whose mind was almost completely immersed in the exhilarating feeling of his power soaring, murmured:
"Water has no constant color; it can encompass all filth, wash away all dirt, and maintain its own purity."
Water has no fixed shape; it can transform into infinite shapes, mimicking endless life, unpredictable yet retaining its true nature.
When divided, they transform into countless streams, dense yet orderly; when combined, they resemble towering waves, unstoppable; even with a thousand minds, it is difficult to fathom their myriad transformations.
To protect the purity of its source, water's gentle will can be transformed into a sharp blade, forging divine weapons.
This bow embodies the wisdom of water, and is named—
【Ruoshui】!
Indeed, before opening it, Yin Kong never expected that the wooden box would contain a five-star longbow.
Moreover, it has already been upgraded to the maximum level of 90, and even refined to the highest level, namely the fifth level of refinement, [Ruoshui]!
Yin Kong originally thought that once he finished the [Demon Sword Book], the [Ama-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi] would be his first gold weapon after coming to this world, and also his only five-star weapon for a long time to come.
But now, this unexpected surprise caught him completely off guard.
The feeling was like the opponent's field was already full of powerful dragon monsters, while he, with an empty field and his life points almost gone, successfully drew a [Super Polymerization] or [Albus].
I was so incredibly excited, it was so wonderful that I wanted to burst into song.
Higurashi Sota exclaimed in amazement:
"Ruoshui? What a beautiful name. It must be incredibly powerful, right?"
Yin Kong's tone still held undisguised excitement:
"It's not a matter of how powerful it is, because even I didn't expect that I would have the chance to get it."
If it's just Elite 1, Yin Kong thinks that once he has enough Primogems, he might still have the chance to be added to the gacha pool.
But this [Ruoshui] weapon at Elite 5 level...
To be honest, Yin Kong couldn't imagine how extravagant he would be in the future to create such a luxurious weapon.
Of course, as extravagant as it may be, its power is undeniable.
The max-level [Ruoshui] instantly provided Yin Kong with a base (white value) attack power of 542 points and a critical damage of 88.2% the moment it was equipped!
Furthermore, the Elite 5 [Ruoshui] can provide the holder with a 32% HP bonus, and when there are enemies around, it can also provide an additional 40% damage increase.
If anyone has no concept of these data, let me give a simple example.
Before his transmigration, the undisputed strongest main DPS was Vulcan Mavika. Although her endgame stats required approximately 2,600 attack power, in reality, a level 90 Vulcan with no gear only had 359 base attack power and 38.4% base critical damage.
Of course, the growth brought about by the increase in character level is not only reflected in attack power, but in all aspects.
Even so, it's clear how outrageous the weapon's stats are.
Especially for Yin Kong now, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he has risen to the top in one step.
"I think Mrs. Higurashi can rest assured for now. Since Miss Kagome was able to leave it in the Sengoku period, it at least shows that she has grown to a very high level."
Even if sacrifice is truly necessary, it should not be now.
Of course, even just for the sake of this fully-equipped [Ruoshui] weapon, Yin Kong would never stand idly by.
The only pity is that since my future self was able to keep the Elite 5 version of [Ruoshui], why not simply keep a polearm that Zhongli could equip, or even a complete set of top-tier artifacts?
After the initial excitement wore off, Yin Kong couldn't help but start indulging in greedy fantasies again.
Chapter 96 After the Reunion Comes the Farewell
The limitations of [Ruoshui] are still too great. Currently, apart from Yin Kong himself, the only archer character he has drawn is Little Amy.
If it were replaced with a fully upgraded [Homa] or [Daoguang], Yin Kong simply couldn't imagine how formidable Mr. Zhongli would become after being equipped with it.
Unfortunately, he can only reluctantly transform into the mysterious Raikou-no-Man now.
As it turns out, human desires are indeed endless.
One second, Yin Kong was overjoyed with his max-level, gold-tier [Ruoshui], the next second, he began to greedily fantasize about getting all the resources for character development for free in one go.
Clearly, this level 5 [Ruoshui] weapon must be, and could only be, the work of Yin Kong himself in the future.
But if my future self can preserve [Ruoshui] in this way, why can't I be more straightforward and preserve the weapon, the artifact, and a whole set of cultivation materials as well?
Is it unwillingness, or is it—
What limitations exist that make it impossible?
Moreover, why this particular [Ruoshui]?
【Ruoshui】is indeed a very good five-star weapon, but in terms of versatility, it is not outstanding among the gold weapons.
Even among five-star bows, there are better options.
Could it be that this "Ruoshui" weapon holds some special meaning, allowing the future Yin Kong to hope to convey information that cannot be directly expressed in words through this method?
Ruoshui... Ruoshui...
Could it be that my future self is to make him extract a Night Orchid as soon as possible?
Indeed, although Ye Lan is one of Yin Kong's favorite characters, his current top priority for drawing cards is still those few gods and those powerful beings that are comparable to gods.
If it weren't for his future self reminding him, even if he encountered Yelan's card pool, he would most likely have weighed the pros and cons and then reluctantly given up.
However, since it's a weapon, it might not actually refer to Yelan, but rather to a four-star character who was rerun at the same time as her, or even just a supporting character.
Or perhaps it's just that the time isn't right yet. When Yin Kong encounters that card pool in the future, he will automatically understand his future intentions.
Of course, it's also possible that Yin Kong is just overthinking things.
In the future, he simply sent back a weapon casually, without giving it any further thought.
Damn it, that bastard riddle teller, get out of Beika Town!
Wait, this time the riddle solver is myself?
Once Yin Kong had finally calmed down, he looked at Yukino Yukinoshita, who had been hesitant to speak since the beginning:
"Miss Yukinoshita, it seems you also have something you want to ask me?"
He's in a very good mood right now, and he's generally willing to answer questions for the other party as long as it doesn't involve the real core secrets.
Even for minor, insignificant troubles, they are happy to lend a hand.
However, Yukino Yukinoshita was clearly not concerned about this matter. She remained silent for a moment before asking:
"What I saw under the sacred tree last time wasn't an illusion, was it?"
Is that what it is?
Yin Kong was somewhat surprised, not expecting that the matter of the magical cat would remain in the girl's heart.
However, now that things have come to this, it's not something worth hiding, so he readily had the magical cat remove its disguise.
