Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Page 1471

Naturally, Liu Mengli also understood that the environment wasn't necessarily good.

Through her previous interactions with the butterfly spirits and dream-eating tapirs, she knew that some Onmyoji would still exorcise monsters without any reason.

"Alright, I'm going to start repairing this dream world. If you see any disturbances, please don't take them too seriously."

"I know, I'll go and inform the others right away."

"Oh, then you should let me know first, and let me know when it's done."

"Please wait a moment, Lord Kyosuke."

Liu Mengli bowed again to Kousaka Kyosuke.

Kyosuke Kosaka returned the greeting, but no one knew the turmoil surging within him.

"Even the second female lead has come? What's going on in the Central Plains?"

Kyosuke Kosaka was shocked.

Liu Mengli is the second female lead in "Chinese Paladin". How could Kousaka Kyosuke, who knows Han Lingsha, not know Liu Mengli?

The female protagonist is the young master of the Dream Eater clan.

Based on the background of the story, this is the original story that Kyosuke Kousaka knows.

That is—the Qionghua Sect will have the sword masters of the two divine swords, Wangshu and Xihe, work together to bind a demon realm, the Illusionary Darkness Realm, that is moving along a specific trajectory. Then, the Qionghua Sect will seize the amethyst stone of the Illusionary Darkness Realm, causing a war, and the young Liu Mengli will be taken to the human world...

However, based on the current situation, it is clear that something unexpected has happened that Kousaka Kyosuke was unaware of.

"I remember that the spiritual power contained in the abundant amethyst stones in the Illusionary Realm was enough for the Qionghua Sect to ascend to the Heavenly Realm with the entire land and its people... If we could obtain that small world, it might not be any worse than obtaining the Nine Springs."

The Nine Springs of Shennong are most likely a treasure coveted by the Heavenly Emperor.

The chances of Kousaka Kyosuke obtaining it are very low, and there is a great risk involved.

If one could obtain a small world filled with crystals rich in spiritual energy, it would also allow partners to live for many years, mainly because it is highly safe.

Forget it, let's wait until we go to the Central Plains to find out the situation before making a decision.

Even now, Kyosuke Kosaka can't understand why Liu Mengli and her people would abandon such a comfortable environment.

"Ow~"

The sound was like that of a small animal.

When Kousaka Kyosuke looked down, he saw that the monsters, who were probably young Baku, were rubbing against his feet in a fawning manner, so he squatted down and patted their heads.

It seems he still has a lot of charm.

Not long after, Liu Mengli returned and said that she had notified the monsters in the other dream worlds. Kousaka Kyosuke also stood up and began to cast a spell.

In the past, repairing a shaken dream world would have been more difficult, but now it's much easier.

Their strength increased many times over after they became immortals.

For this reason, Kyosuke Kosaka finished in less than half a cup of tea's time and then took his leave.

"..."

Liu Mengli felt a strange feeling as she watched Kousaka Kyosuke leave.

Having only been in Japan for a short time, she gained a lot of information by communicating with other yokai (supernatural beings).

Furthermore, having witnessed Kyosuke Kousaka's desperate struggle against Orochi on the day of the trial, Liu Mengli had to admit that Kyosuke Kousaka's personality was quite peculiar...

In reality, not much time has actually passed.

At least the butterfly spirit is still munching on the spirit rice ball.

"It's all taken care of." Kousaka Kyosuke stroked the butterfly spirit's hair.

The butterfly spirit provided him with a lot of help when he was researching dreams and illusions, and he was very grateful for her contributions.

The important thing is that this girl never asks for anything in return, so Kousaka Kyosuke can only provide her with her favorite rice balls and sweets every time they meet.

"Thank you so much..."

"Stop talking, just focus on eating."

Kousaka Kyosuke smiled and spoke to the butterfly spirit, his gaze shifting to Kagura, Su Chang, Han Lingsha, and the others.

Upon seeing Han Lingsha, Kyosuke Kosaka felt a strange emotion rise within him again.

Han Lingsha is the female lead in "Chinese Paladin," and so is Liu Mengli, and yet they both ended up here...

That's such a coincidence.

Considering that Han Lingsha came from a family of tomb raiders and had offended the underworld, and that Liu Mengli, being a demon, was likely also in conflict with the Qionghua Sect, the most famous immortal cultivation sect in the Central Plains, Kousaka Kyosuke understood.

They all escaped here, so there's not much to say.

"Lord Kyosuke, you're taking Ryousa to the Underworld, right? But she's a little worried that it might interfere with your work."

When Su Chang saw that Kosaka Kyosuke was looking over, she took the initiative to speak up for Han Lingsha.

Kousaka Kyosuke understood that Su Chang was naturally bold and open-minded, could easily get along with anyone, and was willing to help those she agreed with; she was a very typical female knight-errant.

Kyosuke Kosaka liked this about her the most.

"There's no need to worry about that. However, I hope that when you see the harsh environment of the Underworld, Miss Ling Sha, you won't be frightened."

Han Lingsha's heart skipped a beat, but she still replied immediately, "Everyone is already prepared to disappear from this world completely!"

Past sins must eventually be repaid, and everyone is already mentally prepared for this.

"it is good."

Kyosuke Kosaka smiled, somewhat admiring the ruthlessness the Han clan had shown towards him.

He still understands this point very well.

There's no turning back now; it would be too cowardly not to give it a shot.

After a while...

After finishing the rice ball, the butterfly spirit took her leave, and Kousaka Kyosuke also led Kagura, Su Chang, and Han Lingsha toward the underworld.

Since they didn't plan to meet up with Higanbana, Kinnara, and Aohime first, Kousaka Kyosuke and the others went straight to the Underworld after arriving in the Underworld.

As they approached the destination, Kyosuke Kosaka summoned the people out of the bottle. After exchanging pleasantries, he led them to the ghost messenger's location... and things proceeded smoothly.

Half an hour later.

After sending Su Chang and Han Lingsha back, Kousaka Kyosuke continued to work with the others—collecting the out-of-control flowers of the Lycoris radiata.

"It's become even more vibrant after absorbing sin," the spider lily said, smiling as it examined a red flower.

Speechless, Kyosuke Kousaka, who was still searching with his senses, simply walked up to the spider lily and vigorously rubbed her face with both hands. Any pretty face would lose its beauty and charm under the distortion.

"Wake up! This evil may be pure, but aren't you more curious about human obsessions?"

"Yes, I have always been more curious about human obsessions, so you have misunderstood. It is very rude of you to treat a lady with such rudeness."

"Okay, I apologize."

Kyosuke Kosaka observed that the spider lily remained elegant, and thought to himself that this woman had a truly good temper.

In fact, the red spider lily wasn't really angry, because it wasn't a big deal to her.

"Kyosuke, don't worry! I'll keep a close eye on this dangerous woman. If she makes any inappropriate moves, I'll grab her immediately!"

Qingji glared hatefully at the other shore flower.

"There's no need for that." Kousaka Kyosuke sensed the sourness in the air and quickly went to Aohime to comfort her.

Seeing this, the spider lily smiled and said, "I'm even more curious about how long human desires can last?"

Having already keenly discovered through the contract that Kousaka Kyosuke's lifespan had increased significantly, Higanbana is eagerly anticipating how things will develop in the future.

A long period of time is nothing to many monsters, but it is not for humans.

The most famous of them all is the nun Yaobikuni, known only to the red spider lily.

This woman had previously made a crazy deal with the fake Yamata no Orochi, hoping to die...

"Hey, Kyosuke, what kind of monster is that over there with a bull's head?" Kinnara suddenly pointed to a certain spot.

"It's a bull demon, a monster created by an evil god. It used to linger in the underworld, but now it's not satisfied with that little space to move around."

Kyosuke Kosaka also spotted many minotaur figures and annihilated them from a distance with a wave of his hand.

After thinking for a moment, he created another powerful barrier.

There are still many surviving monsters in the underworld, and Kyosuke Kousaka feels it is necessary to protect them. Of course, he will only do his part.

"There are chains extending from the underworld... What are those?" Kagura suddenly asked.

She was always paying attention to the situation in the underworld and was always aware of certain things.

The red spider lily replied with a smile:

"The Sanzu River is a river that guides the souls of the dead. Since the leader of the underworld established new laws, the Sanzu River can extend into shackles that bind evil spirits."

"Looking at it closely now, I suspect that the Sanzu River went berserk due to its connection with 'nothingness' and sin, which also affected the shackles used to bind evil spirits. Perhaps at this moment, it is binding all evil spirits indiscriminately, without distinguishing between good and evil."

Qingji looked at the spider lily with suspicion.

"I have to say, your knowledge of the underworld is truly beyond imagination. You're not planning on doing something naughty, are you?"
