Inuyasha subconsciously took two steps back. Kagome's voice was too cold and familiar... In the direction pointed by the arrow, the image of the white-robed shrine maiden in red hakama flashed in his mind.

Looking at Inuyasha like this, Kagome did not miss the hurt in his eyes, but no matter how shaken her heart was, she did not stop her hands.

This was Kagome's insistence.

The atmosphere froze.

"Ah, Inuyasha, what are you doing?"

Suddenly, the old voice of Grandma Kaede came from behind.

Kagome paused, put away her bow and arrow, turned around and shook her head, "Nothing, we just had a sparring match."

Hiding his trembling fingers, he changed the subject, "Grandma Kaede, why are you back? Where did Kikyo go? I heard from Yamataro that he saw you sending her to exorcise the demon."

"Oh, it's Yamataro, you got up quite early." Grandma Kaede nodded, "A group of people suddenly came last night and said that a demon appeared in their city, and asked Sister Kikyo to exorcise the demon."

Kagome frowned, "Ask Kikyo to exorcise the demon? Are you specifically looking for Kikyo?"

Something is wrong.

"Yes, yes." Grandma Kaede understood Kagome's concerns, "So I sent Sister Kikyo off, but later the caravan came to meet me and stopped me, saying that the city lord only invited Sister Kikyo."

The two looked at each other and found doubts in each other's eyes.

Since Kikyo was resurrected, she and him did pass by some villages in the process of searching for the fragments of the Four Souls Jade, but no matter how powerful the two were, they would not be so famous in a short period of time that they would specifically invite Kikyo.

"Kikyo..."

"Sister asked me to leave."

Thinking of the look Kikyo gave her after she got on the bus, Grandma Kaede was anxious and nervous all the way. She came back to ask Inuyasha for help, but she saw Kagome and Inuyasha confronting each other.

She was so anxious that she didn't care about what happened between the two. It was restraint that she could calm down and talk to Kagome.

She was asking for help, and one more person would be more secure. Grandma Kaede decisively called Inuyasha, "Inuyasha, Kikyo may have some problems. You and Kagome go together."

When Inuyasha heard Kikyo, his attention was immediately pulled back from his memory. The more he listened, the more worried he became. He wanted to interrupt but couldn't get in the conversation between the two.

When Grandma Feng called him, he knew what to do, but the content of her words made him reflexively refuse, "Who wants to follow him..."

Halfway through the words, meeting Kagome's slightly cold eyes, Inuyasha immediately frowned and continued, "...I won't protect you."

Kagome didn't respond, but took two steps forward and spread her hands, "Give me the fragment of the Four Souls Jade."

"What are you doing?! This is what I got." Inuyasha was not happy, and growled in a defensive posture.

For this fragment, he almost died, how could he hand it over easily, let alone hand it over to a nasty brat.

"...Inuyasha." Kagome took a deep breath, her expression was not as strong and cold as before, he didn't understand why Inuyasha's attitude suddenly became bad.

Because of Kikyo?

Kagome wanted to laugh a little, but couldn't laugh. If she had feelings for Kikyo, she would say it and pursue her, but she was so fierce to him just because of a false "crime".

Bad.

Even though I know Inuyasha's character, he treated Kagome even worse when they first met, and even if he unsealed her, he still felt exhausted.

"I have no ill will, and you don't have to be so hostile to me. I don't care what you think, but please don't hinder my goal."

He pointed to his eyes, "I saw that the Four Souls Jade on you is full of evil spirit. Now, can you tell me where you got the fragments from?"
