But what did Slime do wrong?

He should do something.

The Patriarch of Jinguji knew this clearly.

This is the imperial palace, He Mao Zhongxing is still watching jokes, a mere monster can't be so presumptuous here...

The Patriarch of Jinguji could almost give himself a thousand and ten thousand reasons why he must act.

But--!

The Patriarch of Jingong Temple looked at the golden powder that was still falling in the air, and at the same time, he felt extremely distressed because of the destruction of the dragon scale, but he couldn't help but feel a sense of panic.

It is one of the "tokens" enshrined by the Jinguji family. Although it is not the most advanced treasure that is directly related to the gods, because it can summon useful and powerful shikigami like Huanglong, so even if It is in the Jinguji family, and it can be regarded as a very useful magic weapon.

Limulu was not killed in one blow by Huanglong, and this matter is still within the scope of acceptance of the Patriarch of Jingongsi.

Because no matter how you look at it, Limulu should be a big monster—or the cub of a big monster.It would be a strange thing to be killed so easily.

But what the Patriarch of Jingu Temple couldn't accept was that Huanglong couldn't bring even a little bit of harm to Limulu.

Whether it was the long spear built with the help of Thunder Emperor's power before, or the shikigami summoned by the dragon's scales, none of them had the power to fight back in front of Limuru, as if for the latter, that was not enough. Not much more difficult than dusting a speck of dust off your body.

This is what really made the Patriarch of Jinguji feel frightened and angry.

And under this shock and anger, there is still a very good fear hidden by me.

It's just that the Patriarch of Jingu Temple didn't want to admit that he would be intimidated by such an unknown monster who didn't seem to be intimidating at the same time.

What a shame!It is simply damaging the prestige of the Jinguji family!

King Ma Cang Ye heard clearly the uneasiness and fear in his heart that he might not be aware of.

He turned his head to one side, his long hair covered most of his cheeks, and at the same time covered the mocking smile on King Ma Cang Ye's face.

Behold, this is man.

Whether it's the nobles and ministers who are glamorous on the surface, or the onmyoji with inhuman power, or the poor, ignorant and ignorant commoners...

All the same, false and disgusting.

This point has already been known from the moment he obtained the ability of Yipo Chiyo, from the moment he was able to hear people's hearts.

"...Hello, King Ye."

Abe Seimei asked suddenly and abruptly.

"what are you laughing at?"

King Ma Cang Ye was shocked immediately.

Even King Ma Cangye, who has the delusion of destroying the world and the ability to implement such delusion in the second grade, is still just a teenager now.

Although he is more mature and thoughtful than his peers, and even many people who are a few rounds older than him, Abe Haruaki is obviously not a fuel-efficient lamp.

Asakura Ye Wang restrained the curvature of the corners of his lips, and followed up with Abe Seimei's words in the same tone as usual: "No."

"You read it wrong, Seimei."

Limulu raised his hand, and the long knife was immediately attached to a terrifying speed, and then before anyone could react, he shot towards the Patriarch of Jinguji with a "swish".

This action was so quick and sudden that almost no one present reacted.

—but only almost.

He Mao Zhongxing, who has been watching everything without saying a word, is like a background board, almost making people forget that there is such a number one person here, and finally makes a move.

No one heard him chanting any spells or words. All in all, when he was noticed, several spells were already standing in front of the Patriarch of Jingu Temple, faintly forming a hexagonal circular pattern.Earth-yellow spiritual power rises from this pattern, faintly forming a pattern of a black turtle, blocking the castration of the long knife.

He Mao Zhongxing folded his hands in his sleeves, with a calm expression on his face, no one could tell that he had just made a move.

"It seems that I judge the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain."

He bowed deeply in the direction of Rimuru.

Yes.

When He Mao Zhongxing made a move and stopped Limuru's long knife, he discovered that Limuru's knife was not so much about attacking as it was intended to deter and intimidate. a bit more.

Even if He Mao Zhongxing did not strike this time, in fact, this knife will not really take the life of the Patriarch of Jingu Temple, but at most it will cut off a few strands of hair on his sideburns, or at worst it will scratch him. cheek, or piercing through the clothes of the Patriarch of Jingu Temple and nailing him to the palace wall... that's all.

how to say?

The actual harm is not very big, but the insult and the ability to deal a psychological blow are extremely strong.

Limulu didn't talk to him, but He Mao Zhongxing could sense that the other party's eyes had already fallen on him.

Before Limulu, He Maozhongxing made it clear that he didn't have any malicious intentions: "I don't mean to be your enemy...or, to prevent you from leaving."

This onmyoji, who is no longer young, and perhaps the most powerful onmyoji in the world, has a smile on his lips. It seems that he can faintly glimpse a glimpse of the Heian era: "After all, from Qingming and Bao When Xian led you to stand in front of me, I already knew..."

This is not an extremely beautiful creature that humans can restrain.

He Maozhongxing has been walking between Yin and Yang since he was a child, and it has been several decades.

However, since he embarked on this path, He Mao Zhongxing has never seen such a light—whether it is on humans, ghosts, or gods.

He won't live long, and He Mao Zhongxing clearly knows this.

Onmyoji originally dealt with non-human beings all year round, and prayed to heaven and earth for power that should not be controlled by humans, so it is really normal to pay a price for this, and one of them is reflected in lifespan.

And from the moment He Mao Zhongxing realized that his life was not long, he discovered that he could see the light of other people's souls.

Some are as bright as the stars, and some are as dim as the night.

He accepted all this calmly, and then tried to look at the world from the perspective of light.

——Then, he saw such an existence.

The light that was brought before him by his son and the most proud disciple was even brighter than the sun in the sky.

It was so bright and dazzling that it was almost stimulated to shed physiological tears, making people wonder if it was really the god in charge of the rising sun who descended from the plateau and stood in front of him with the sun in his arms.

"What are you talking about, He Mao Zhongxing!"

The Patriarch of Jingu Temple cried out immediately when he heard the words.

"Are you going to let these goblins who are rampant in the palace leave?!"

He might want to say something more, but he fell silent for a moment when he saw He Mao Zhongxing's eyes.

"Master Jinguji."

He Mao Zhongxing turned around and looked at him. His words and deeds were all easy-going and accepted the ceremony, but there was an invisible aura that forced the Patriarch of the Jinguji family to hold his head up.

"This is a decision I made, and I will naturally explain it to the Emperor and all the adults who are concerned about this matter."

He Mao Zhongxing lowered his folded hands, showing his sharpness in an instant.

"Anyway—Master Jinguji, do you still remember? I, He Mao Zhongxing, am the current Yin Yang head."

When the Patriarch of Jingong Temple heard the words, he couldn't help but bow his head in resentment, but he didn't dare to really disobey He Mao Zhongxing.

As He Maozhong said, he is the head of Yin Yang, the leader of all Yin Yang masters.As long as the onmyojis who are still working in the onmyoji, at least in name, need to obey the instructions of the yinyang head.

He remained silent, while He Mao Zhongxing took half a step back, making way for Limulu: "You can go wherever you want."

"I only hope that in the future, you can have a friendly attitude towards human beings, and that will be enough for a villain to be content."

Li Mulu pursed the corners of her lips and did not respond, but lightly flapped her wings and landed in front of Concubine Wenche Yaofei's chariot, lifting the heavy curtain.

"So now, can I invite you to leave together?"

Limuru asked.

The woman sitting in the luxurious chariot looked at him, her eyes changing back and forth between clarity and madness.Two lines of blood and tears overflowed from her eye sockets, and slowly slid down her fair cheeks.

She looked at everything around her with extremely strange eyes, and it seemed that she was still familiar with green tiles, wooden window panels and hanging paper lanterns.But there is no trace of the past in those furnishings.

So Concubine Wen Che Yao finally vaguely remembered that the onmyoji over there had told her before that it was no longer Nara, but a brand new dynasty, the peace of wind, flowers, snow and moon.

"So... I'm already dead..."

She laughed and sighed, the beautiful cheeks that belonged to humans began to crumble, and the face underneath still vaguely had the facial features and style of a human being, but it was pale, with blood-red lips, and a ferocious ghost. The horn pierced the flesh and blood on his forehead and grew out.

The gold embroidery on the gorgeous palace dress also fell off, and became a baby composed of blood-colored mist, lying on the lap of Concubine Wenche, looking at everyone with dark eye sockets, showing a sinister smile .

And the luxurious chariot has also undergone changes, the shell of the agarwood has peeled off, revealing the distinct snow-white human bones inside.

This is... the fierce ghost who has been haunting the palace since her tragic death in the Nara period, and would wake up from her deep sleep every few decades, wandering around the palace in a daze. The attitude and appearance that should have at the time.

It was only because she had been unwilling to accept the stimulation of falling out of favor, dying in the cold palace, and watching her newly born young son being chopped up alive and fed to the dog, so she spontaneously forgot about it and maintained her body. For the human appearance, as if those nightmares never happened.

If the first person you met was Concubine Wenche who looked like this, then no matter whether it was Abe Seimei or King Asakura Ye, even if you didn’t say that you would just run away, you would try your best to avoid disputes with her. ——Even the Patriarch of Jingu Temple, who has always been very arrogant, will retreat strategically when facing this fierce ghost that is comparable to a big monster.

After all, if it is really counted, it is still unknown who will kill who!

Concubine Wenche gently stroked the blood baby's head on her lap with one hand, and stretched out the other hand towards Limulu.

Limulu: "?"

Although he was puzzled, he didn't evade, and let Yaofei Wenche put her hand on her mask.

The ghost-faced woman gently removed Limu's exposed mask, revealing the childish face underneath.She used her nails to paint Limuru's eyelids bit by bit, and at a certain moment, her red lips parted slightly.

She spat out a shining purple bead from her mouth, and handed it to Limulu.

"I had a dream."

Concubine Wenche said softly.

"A beautiful, beautiful dream."

In the dream, she was still the glamorous Concubine Wenche who married the emperor, with the emperor's love inside and the powerful family outside.

Without the existence of Fujiwara Yuki, her father and family have never lost their power.She has always been the emperor's favorite concubine, who bears children for him and is in charge of the palace.

What a wonderful dream.

It was so good that Concubine Wen Che Yao almost forgot the death of her father and brother, the bone-chilling coldness of the cold palace, and the child who was torn apart in front of her eyes and she had no time to hug herself.

I forgot that Fujiwara Yuki's seemingly gentle and sweet face was actually vicious like a snake and a scorpion.

But she was already a dead person, and those pasts were just remnants of the past.She should be a fierce ghost who has returned from the underworld, leading the ghost domain alone, but she can challenge the gods, not a small onmyoji who can step forward and bully her.

Concubine Wen Che Yao thought of the scene of the child standing in front of her, blocking her from the onmyoji attack, and thought of the warm hand reaching out to her in the repeated reincarnation dream, bringing her back to this cold world. , but it is a real reality.

So she handed her life bead forward again, as if she wanted to stuff it directly into Limulu's arms.

"Accept [-] million, and then board my chariot."

Concubine Wenche said softly.

Accept me, and take me to see the light of this world.
