One Hundred Ways to Beat the Ghost King [Onmyoji]

Chapter 41 People live to redeem their sins

The look he looked at Chi Qingqing suddenly became weird and complicated, his lips moved but he didn't say a word.

The little monster in the forest smelled something wrong, so he ran away and hid, looking at them with curious eyes.

No one noticed that when the ghost flame hit the mud behind Ibaraki, the splashing sparks ignited an inconspicuous white paper man.

"This half-demon is so daring to treat Lord Ibaraki like this..." a turtle said, and slowly climbed onto the stones by the river bank.

The clam spirit sat in the shell and discussed in a low voice, "But Lord Ibaraki didn't fight back. My king looks very happy. He really likes that half-demon."

Ibaraki didn't make any moves, but Jiu Tun raised his eyebrows and chuckled, "Very good, but I have already discovered your weakness!"

As soon as the words fell, he put away the ghost gourd, and even quickly approached Chi Qingqing directly, trying to catch her in vain.

Chi Qingqing's eyes moved slightly, and immediately turned into a vine, hooked the tree trunk in the distance and jumped to the other side. The next second, Jiu Tun followed her like lightning.Before she could stand still, Chi Qingqing had no choice but to jump to another tree again. However, although she was light in stature, she was still not as fast as Jiu Tun, and was almost caught by the opponent.

As expected, Shuten saw through her weakness at a glance.

While both vines and magic-breaking arrows are extremely aggressive moves, both require a long range to be most effective.As for the mirror technique that can rebound attacks, Jiu Tun must take the initiative to attack.

Now that Jiu Tun kept getting closer to her, and didn't plan to use the ghost gourd, Chi Qingqing's tricks were immediately destroyed by her.

She passively flew around the forest like a monkey, with Jiu Tun chasing after her.

The opponent's speed was too fast, and Chi Qingqing had no time to stop and tie a hand knot to drive the yin and yang technique, and the vines could only slightly hold back Jiu Tun's footsteps so that she would not be caught immediately.

Chi Qingqing sighed slightly in his heart, it was really not an option to swing around among the trees like Tarzan the ape.

When her monster power is overdrawn, if she slows down by a beat, she will be caught by Jiu Tun.

However, this battle also inspired the arrogance in her bones that refused to admit defeat.No matter what, she will never admit defeat easily.

Thinking of this, her eyes sank, and she suddenly drew out the vine and jumped in the direction of Shuten.

Jiu Tun followed her closely, but he didn't expect that she would turn around suddenly, and was slightly startled immediately.Due to the inertia of his body, when he stood firmly on the tree trunk, he looked back and saw that Chi Qingqing was more than twice as far away from him as before.

"She's really a bold woman..." Jiu Tun said with a smile in his eyes. After finishing his words, he saw the surrounding scene distorted, and Chi Qingqing's figure also disappeared in place.

Seeing this sudden scene, Jiu Tun narrowed his eyes, "Huh?"

"It's an illusion." Ibaraki, who was watching the battle coldly with his arms folded, also changed his face at this moment, and put on a serious expression.

"She even practices illusion!" And her strength is not low.

Ibaraki looked at the silent forest in front of him, obviously the picture was the same as before, but he really felt that there was a strange change in this area.

Even he couldn't find Chi Qingqing's hiding place. Obviously, her ability to control illusion is stronger than her demon power and spiritual power.

Chi Qingqing, who was finally able to take a breath, landed silently behind a tree, held his breath, and quietly looked at Shuten and Ibaraki.

Thinking of Jiu Tun's quick and accurate capture of Mei Yao, Chi Qingqing didn't dare to take it lightly, and took out six talisman papers from her bosom.After infusing the six talisman papers with her own spiritual or demon power, she threw out the talisman papers and spread them out to stick them on the surrounding tree trunks.

Jiu Tun, who had vaguely noticed where Chi Qingqing was at first, immediately found that Chi Qingqing's breath could be felt in every direction around him.

"It's much more powerful than I imagined..." Jiu Tun said these words slowly, and withdrew the casual smile on his face.

If it was said that he was only playing against Chi Qingqing for fun before, at this moment he really took it seriously.

Successfully disturbing the other party's perception, Chi Qingqing made up her mind, smiled slightly, and began to manipulate the demon power to tease the two of them.

"The tree is moving?" Seeing a giant tree inexplicably stretching out its branches and attacking him, Ibaraki frowned slightly and wanted to back away.

However, at the moment when he was about to lift his feet, his eyes froze suddenly, and he changed direction and headed straight for the giant tree.Sure enough, the imaginary attack did not come, his body passed straight through the big tree, and at the place where he was standing just now, several barbed vines had already broken out of the ground.

The golden pupils trembled slightly, and Ibaraki frowned, "You're really cunning."

"Ding", Ibaraki Doji's favorability towards you has increased by 30. Current favorability: -20.

Chi Qingqing was not discouraged when she missed a hit. The two kinds of power and illusion she practiced have always been less aggressive, and more inclined to protect herself.Therefore, when encountering powerful monsters like Ibaraki and Shuten, they can only choose a wretched and cunning way of fighting, otherwise they will definitely lose.

"My lord's illusion is getting better and better, Xuan Ji is so happy." Xuan Ji, who was watching all this in the Jade of the Dragon Head, couldn't help but said in relief.

Chi Qingqing replied to her subconsciously, "Unfortunately, it's still far away..."

While releasing a huge illusion like this, she also has to control spiritual power and demon power separately, which consumes a lot of her own power. After a while, the illusion will dissipate because it cannot be maintained.

Taking advantage of this effort, Chi Qingqing once again went all out to transform the vines, and attacked the two of them in line with the strange and varied changes in the illusion. The arrow shot out silently.

The strength and direction of her attack are both at a tricky angle, making it impossible to guard against, and soon aroused Jiu Tun's strong interest.

"It's really interesting, but it's a pity that it's not strong enough." Jiu Tun smiled lowly, picked up the ghost gourd and took a sip, his eyes immediately glowed enthusiastically.

Crushing the incoming magic-breaking arrow, the vines hit him and were immediately eroded by the evil spirit around him. Jiu Tun laughed loudly, and his eyes slammed towards a place in the forest sharply. In Chi Qingqing's eyes, I was shocked for a moment.

"In the face of absolute power, any conspiracy is just a trick that is vulnerable!"

The moment the flamboyant and domineering words fell, Chi Qingqing was tightly imprisoned in a hard and hot chest.

"caught you."

Chi Qingqing's body trembled as her alcohol-smelling breath sprayed into her hair, and the surrounding environment disappeared like a cloud of smoke without a trace.

Putting Chi Qingqing on the ground, Jiu Tun's lavender eyes flashed with fire, and he raised the corners of his mouth and smiled happily: "My uncle's eyes really never make mistakes."

Not as skilled as others, Chi Qingqing snorted softly, raised her hand and brushed off the dry leaves on her body.

"Now you can always let me go to find someone, right?"

Jiu Tun's eyes fell on this angry look, and he felt that her eyes were particularly agile.

This woman finally won't keep a cold face in front of him forever.

This sparring was really interesting, Jiu Tun touched his chin, looked at her with smiling eyes and said, "Who are you looking for? I will help you."

It's about Yuanqian, Chi Qingqing didn't hesitate, and immediately replied: "I'm looking for a cherry blossom demon, she wears horns on her head, she is a married monster."

Hearing this narration, Jiu Tun frowned, and quickly thought about it in his mind.

Was it the one he had seen last time?

"Is it the cherry blossom demon married to a human being?" Ibaraki on the side asked nonchalantly, his golden pupils flashed a stream of light, "I have some impression, it should be the one next to Taohua."

Chi Qingqing's eyes lit up, and it was rare for Ibaraki to look less unpleasant, "It should be her!"

Her joyful appearance made Jiu Tun a little bit apprehensive, and then he hugged Chi Qingqing in his arms and rushed towards the palace, "I will take you to find it!"

Seeing this scene, Ibaraki frowned slightly, sighed helplessly, and still bullied himself to follow.

This is the first time Chi Qingqing has come to Jiu Tun's palace, she was shocked after just one glance.

This majestic palace with carved buildings and painted buildings is resplendent and magnificent, and the beautiful glazed tiles emit dazzling and dreamy light under the warm sunlight, which is no worse than the palace of the human emperor.

Even in autumn, the ancient trees around the palace are still towering and shaded, and various unknown flowers are blooming all over the mountains and plains, as if it is a fairyland transformed from a picture scroll.

The mountain under the palace is a market for monsters. Just like human towns, there are all kinds of beings in the monster market, and there are all kinds of dazzling things.

Every monster with different shapes saw Shuten, and their eyes were full of respect and trust.

At this moment, Chi Qingqing realized in a daze that this seemingly domineering man is also a real king.

Jiu Tun took her to a flower forest behind the palace, filled with the fragrance of peach blossoms and cherry blossoms, Chi Qingqing saw the cherry blossom demon sitting under the tree at a glance.

The cherry blossom demon frowned slightly, and beside her was a girl in pink with bright eyes and bright teeth, and the two of them were talking carefully about something.

Sensing Jiu Tun's breath, Peach Blossom Demon immediately turned serious, turned around and saluted.

Sakura Demon was also about to get up, but found Chi Qingqing beside Jiu Tun, and was stunned for a second, "Qing...Qingshui?"

Chi Qingqing stepped in front of her in two or three steps, pursed her lips and said in a deep voice, "I'm here to find you for Qian."

Sakura Demon was taken aback, "I didn't mean..."

"I'm sorry, I told Qianye everything." Chi Qingqing nodded apologetically, "... Qianye remembered the memories of his previous life."

"What did you say?" Sakura Demon stood up abruptly, her eyes filled with shock.

"He's very ill right now...and desperately wants to see you."

The cherry blossom demon was startled, and immediately asked worriedly: "How could Qianye get sick, does it matter?"

Chi Qingqing patted her on the shoulder reassuringly, and told her all about Yuan Qianye's recent deeds as tactfully as possible. After the Sakura Demon finished listening, she stood aside silently.

"Qian also misses you very much, and his marriage with other human nobles has also been cancelled." Chi Qingqing said after a few moments of consideration, "I brought everything that should be brought for Qian."

As for how to choose the cherry blossoms, this is not something Chi Qingqing can control.Even if she can control, she will not say anything.

After going through so many things, she also slowly understood that people often say that people who are too rational are indifferent, but sometimes it is a terrible thing for sensibility to overwhelm reason.

When beheading Qing Ji, she was softened because of Yixiu Anzhen's prayer, and the consequences and harm caused were immeasurable.

As for Yuanqian, it was because she couldn't restrain her inner emotions that she told him about Sakura, that's why she missed him.

Although Yuanqian was also grateful and delighted by her actions, Chi Qingqing began to regret it.

Maybe if he didn't tell Yuan Qianye, he wouldn't miss him and suffer for it, but the satisfaction in his eyes couldn't be concealed.

She didn't know whether it was right or wrong to do so.

With the identities of Sakura Demon and Yuan Qianya, it is too difficult for the two to stay together.If it was said that Sakura Yao was suffering alone before, but what she did seemed to make both of them fall into the pain of falling in love and not being able to embrace each other.

Should she persuade Yuanqian to escape from the Genji family and stay with the Sakura Demon?This is not a kind of harm to Yuan Qianye's parents.

In Jiu Tun's eyes, the Sakura Demon's hesitation and struggle really made him a little anxious, and when he thought that Chi Qingqing stepped into Dajiang Mountain for another man's business, he felt uncomfortable.

Jiu Tun snorted in a low voice: "It's really troublesome, do you want me to take that man back?"

Although she knew that he was just talking casually, Chi Qingqing couldn't help but glared at him.

"Thank you...but please let me think about it again." The cherry blossom demon said softly with a sad face.

Chi Qingqing nodded, comforted her, and then prepared to leave Dajiangshan, while Jiu Tun followed her with a shameless face and wanted to send her back to the city.

Beside the peach forest, in a corner outside the palace, Liu Ji looked at all this secretly, a trace of sadness flashed in her beautiful eyes.

*******

"...Don't follow me, I won't go back to the city."

Jiu Tun frowned, and asked unmoved: "If you don't go back to Qingming's mansion, where are you going?"

"Golden Pavilion Temple." Chi Qingqing answered while looking at the sky, it was not yet noon.

She still needs to continue to go to the Golden Pavilion Temple to save the souls of the dead, and to forgive the karma she committed.

Hearing this, Jiu Tun pursed his lips and said nothing, his expression seemed a little unhappy.

He hated places like temples the most.

Although Chi Qingqing noticed his expression, he didn't speak.Whether it's Jiuten or Abe Yayoi, she can't get too entangled with them. According to Jiuten's temperament, she must not tell him the news that she is leaving the Kyoto Prefecture.

She can't stay here for too long, just like before, as an ordinary witch, accumulating merit and good fortune on the road of practice, and then looking for the way home, this is what she should do.

Going back to another world is the only belief that supports her in this world full of thorns.

The two of them were silent as they thought about each other.

Jiu Tun stared at her slender and thin back quietly, as if he was thinking about something.

Although her appearance is still as weak as when we first met, after several contacts, Shuten slowly felt the tenacity revealed from the inside in this girl.

She has an unyielding spirit flowing from her bones and blood. He can see that Chi Qingqing deeply longs for strength. Every time she meets her, her strength improves rapidly compared to the last time.

As he who also pursues greater power in his bones, he naturally understands the other party's feelings very well.

In today's battle, he got the answer that he couldn't get that night.

Why are you angry at his promise?

Perhaps, his natural tone and domineering words at the beginning were contemptuous and insulting in another sense to someone like her who is extremely strong and has high self-esteem.

*******

After about to leave the scope of Dajiangshan, Shuten finally said goodbye to her.

Chi Qingqing quickened her pace and walked towards the Golden Pavilion Temple, but at the three-way intersection between Oeyama, Golden Pavilion Temple and Kyoto City Gate, she unexpectedly saw a person—Ezaki Junpei.

In Qing Ji's battle, he was seriously injured by the venom, and he has not fully recovered yet, and he has a half mask on his face to cover the wound.

When the eye exposed outside the mask glanced at Chi Qingqing, there was a shadow of prey that could not be hidden deeply.

Ezaki Junpei was surrounded by a few onmyojis with strange faces, who seemed to be out to eliminate demons. When they saw her coming out of Dajiang Mountain, their expressions were a little cold and weird.

Chi Qingqing was secretly vigilant, but Ezaki Junpei left with a group of people around him without even saying hello to her.

The figure paused, Chi Qingqing ignored him, and turned into the strange maiden before, walking towards the Golden Pavilion Temple.

On the way, she took out white paper and folded an origami crane, and drove it to fly back to Qin Ming's mansion with spiritual power, telling Abe that Yayoi had brought Gen Kenya's words to Sakura Demon.

After doing all this, she settled down to help the common people and pilgrims in the Golden Pavilion Temple.

"Ah! Miko-sama!" A seven or eight-year-old girl saw her, her eyes lit up immediately, and she ran from a distance with a bouquet of fragrant and beautiful flowers and threw herself into her arms.

"Mistress, this is given to you by Yuzi, thank you, Mistress, for curing Yuzi's illness!"

Yuzi stuffed the large bouquet of flowers into Chi Qingqing's arms, and she was slightly startled holding the bouquet of flowers.It is already October, and there are few wildflowers in the places where humans live.

There are a few bellflowers that have not completely withered in this bunch of roses. I think Yuzi must have spent a lot of effort in order to pick such a large bunch of flowers.

Chi Qingqing's heart softened, she touched her head with a smile, and said softly, "Thank you for Yuzi's words, I like it very much."

Hearing this sentence, Yuzi suddenly smiled until her eyes narrowed into crescent moons, and looked at her with respect and admiration.

"My father and mother also came to the temple to offer incense today! Yuzi waited for Miko-sama all morning, but fortunately, Miko-sama has come."

While walking into the temple, Yuzi chattered endlessly, while Chi Qingqing smiled and listened silently.

Yuzi is a little girl she rescued two days ago. This little girl was parasitized by the plague ghost and her vitality was sucked out.The mage in the temple helped her to get rid of the plague ghost on her body, but the life force sucked could not come back, so Yuzi was always weak.

When Chi Qingqing saw Yuzi, her parents were praying for her in the temple. Chi Qingqing felt sorry for the child, so she couldn't help using the power of the forest to help her recover.

After recovering, the child had great trust and a little attachment to her.

After helping the Golden Pavilion Temple all afternoon, Yuzi reluctantly waved at her until it was almost dusk, "Master Miko, Yuzi will come to see you tomorrow!"

Chi Qingqing was startled, and wanted to tell her that she would leave the capital at noon tomorrow, but Yuzi had already run away, so she had no choice but to look away.

That's all...just stay one more day.

Chi Qingqing couldn't refuse Yuzi's clear and expectant eyes, so she planned to say goodbye to Yuzi tomorrow after seeing her.

It was dusk, but she didn't want to go back to the city.

The ruins of the burnt Heavenly King Hall in the Golden Pavilion Temple have been cleaned up in the past few days and are ready to be rebuilt.

Under the night, Chi Qingqing jumped onto a tree, staring at the location of the Palace of Heavenly Kings in a daze.Now her strength is already higher than that of the monks in the Golden Pavilion Temple. After supporting the barrier, no one can find her.

That night, Chi Qingqing sat against the trunk of the tree silently with her eyes downcast.

*******

In the mansion in the city, Ezaki Junpei slapped the table heavily and said coldly: "My lords, now you should believe that what I say is the truth, right?"

Raising his head, Ezaki Junpei's eyes flashed a gleam of chill, and he said grimly, "I've said it before, that Shimizu is a half-demon."

"If you are not of my race, your heart must be different. Mr. Genji was always well before, but after seeing her, he has been ill for a long time. I have always suspected that it was her who did it!"

"Afterwards, I used a puppet of the secret art to spy on her, and I found out that she was related to the monster of Dajiangshan! I didn't expect that she was the woman of the evil ghost Shuten-douji! This is what Shuten-douji himself said!"

After the words fell, the expressions of the people present were serious, and they all looked at each other.

Junpei Ezaki got the news from somewhere, and reported it to Yinyang Liao, asking them to go and kill the half-demon of Shimizu together.

Originally, the other party was under the protection of Abe Seimei, and everyone didn't believe what Ezaki Junpei said. Unexpectedly, when they went to find out with Ezaki Junpei, they saw the woman walking out of Oeyama's territory.

Since this is the case, they cannot sit idly by.

Because of Qingji's incident, Yinyangliao has been highly sensitive recently, and will never allow any more monsters to do evil!

"That monster has been staying in the Kinkaku-ji Temple for the past few days, and I don't know what conspiracy and tricks there are, adults must not let it go any longer!" Ezaki Junpei said fiercely.

An onmyoji who seemed to be the leader in the room nodded at this moment, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, then tomorrow the liaison will send people to follow you to subdue the demons."

Hearing these words, a dark light flashed across Ezaki Junpei's eyes.

It's worthy of him swallowing his anger and lurking in secret for so long, now he must kill the other party in one go without threatening others, so that he can vent his hatred in his heart!

********

Chi Qingqing sat on the tree of the Golden Pavilion Temple all night. Although his body was not tired, his heart was a little heavy.

When the sun was rising and pilgrims came to offer incense again, she appeared in the Golden Pavilion Temple again, waiting for Yuzi while solving the common people's pain.

"Master Miko, this wooden comb in our house has become fine!" A woman said tremblingly, "Every time I comb my hair, I feel that there are hands trying to tear all my hair off, it's really scary! "

"Don't worry." Chi Qingqing comforted her a few words, and began to examine the wooden comb.

This wooden comb is a bit old, but it faintly exudes resentment belonging to the soul of the dead. With a slight frown, Chi Qingqing used spiritual power to purify the resentment above.

"It's all right now." Chi Qingqing said, and returned the wooden comb to the woman, "This wooden comb should have been used to comb the hair of dead people, so it was stained with resentment."

Fortunately, the resentment on this wooden comb is not deep, otherwise it would not be as simple as tearing hair.

Hearing this, the woman thanked her gratefully, and went to other temples to offer incense.

Chi Qingqing looked at the sky, it was almost noon, but Yuzi hadn't come yet.

She continued to wait patiently, but she didn't expect that Yuzi didn't wait, but a group of unexpected guests came instead.

"Ezaki Junpei?" Chi Qingqing looked at the aggressive Ezaki Junpei in front of him, narrowing his eyes slightly.

The other party brought a lot of people, about ten or so onmyojis, all looking at her coldly.

With a sneer, Ezaki Junpei pointed at her with cold eyes and said loudly: "This is the half-demon! She transformed into a human priestess, and I don't know what bad things she is going to do in the temple!"

His shout immediately attracted the eyes of a group of people around, who looked at her suspiciously and curiously.

"You nonsense! Miko is a good person, she saved Yuzi, you big villain, don't bully Miko!" An immature child's voice sounded, it was Yuzi in the distance, and today she is still holding a bunch of fresh desire to drip. flowers.

The woman just now said that it was consistent: "Yeah, did Master Onmyoji make a mistake? This Mistress has been staying at the Golden Pavilion Temple for several days, and she has helped everyone a lot."

"Yes, yes!" They turned to Kinkakuji from other shrines to ask for help because they heard that there was a witch with high spiritual power in Kinkakuji.

Hearing this, Ezaki Junpei snorted softly, "Yinyangliao never makes a mistake."

His heart sank, Chi Qingqing felt something was wrong, Ezaki Junpei looked calm, as if he had come prepared.

She didn't want to fight with the opponent here, so she could only calmly say: "Master Onmyoji, you may have misidentified the person, I don't know you."

"Don't know me?" Ezaki Junpei laughed, his eyes were cold and authentic, "I'll let everyone see your true face!"

The other party seemed to be about to attack, Chi Qingqing immediately took out the talisman paper and frowned and became on guard.

Seeing this scene, a trembling old man immediately stood in front of Chi Qingqing full of anger and said, "How could you attack Lord Miko indiscriminately!"

Hearing this, one of the onmyojis with a cold face immediately pushed him away.

Recognizing that the old man holding the medicine jar was the old man who was plagued by bad luck yesterday, Chi Qingqing was furious, and hurriedly stepped forward to help him up.

Just as she was about to accuse the onmyoji, Chi Qingqing felt that the old man beside her suddenly poured unknown powder all over her body.

She was choked and coughed a few times, and after inhaling the powder unintentionally, she was shocked to find that her demon power seemed to have become weak.

Chi Qingqing raised her head and looked at the old man in surprise, but found that the people around saw this scene, and immediately moved away from her for several steps in panic.

"Her eyes are green! She really is a monster!" said someone in the crowd in fear.

Chi Qingqing was startled, and soon realized the strangeness of the powder, which was definitely designed by Junpei Ezaki first, but the old man's rebellion made Chi Qingqing feel a little chilled.

Seeing this scene, Ezaki Junpei smiled and said: "See clearly? She is a monster!"

The surrounding onmyoji began to tie their hands and wanted to make a move, but Yuzi on the side saw this scene, but ran over to block Chi Qingqing regardless of her mother's call, staring at the group of onmyoji.

"Even if Miko-sama is a monster! Miko-sama has helped everyone so much, she is not a bad person!"

Hearing Yuzi's words, the chattering crowd gradually became quiet again.

Yes, even if she is a monster, she doesn't seem to have done anything bad.

Glancing at Yuzi indifferently, Ezaki Junpei stepped forward and said, "Everyone, don't be fooled by this evil monster!"

"This monster is so bold that it dared to infiltrate the Tuyu Gate to deceive Master Qingming's trust, so as to cover itself for doing evil! Let me tell you, this half-monster is the Qingshui that was rumored in the Kyoto Mansion a while ago!"

"Not only did she harm Mr. Genji, who was seriously ill, but even Anzhen, who had a rest with that monk, was the same as a raccoon!"

If people still half-believe the previous words, there will be an uproar when they hear this.The story of Yixiu Anzhen and the snake demon Qing Ji has long spread around the capital, and everyone is afraid and hates this snake demon.

"That sinful monk was entangled with the snake demon and killed so many innocent people. When this woman was fighting the snake demon, she actually let the snake demon go softly!"

"Everyone may not know that this banshee has an unspeakable relationship with Shuten-douji. Maybe it's her who cooperates with the snake demon to do evil in the world!"

The old man stood up trembling, and looked at Chi Qingqing without any gratitude before, and his eyes were full of hatred, "Old man, I can testify."

"It's all because she let the snake demon go, so many people died later! If it wasn't for her, the snake demon wouldn't have attacked our village, eaten so many of our cows, and destroyed many houses! "

Hearing this, Chi Qingqing's face turned pale, she pursed her lips tightly and said nothing, her heart seemed to be firmly pinched by an invisible big hand.

The air was silent for a moment, and the crowd boiled instantly.They all looked at her ferociously, and many people had hatred and fear in their eyes.

Yuzi trembled, and the flower in her hand fell to the ground all of a sudden, and she turned her head to look at Chi Qingqing in a daze.

Looking at Yuzi's eyes, Chi Qingqing suddenly felt fear in her heart, and her fingers tightened slightly.

Unexpectedly, Yuzi turned her head again, stretched out her young arms to protect her behind, and said with tears in her eyes: "Master Miko is not wrong! Mistress...she is so kind, she must not be with the evil ghost." Companion!"

Seeing this scene, Yuzi's mother turned pale with fright, "Yuzi, come here quickly! She killed so many people, be careful the monster will eat you!"

"No!" Yuzi shook her head stubbornly, and shouted: "Why! Miko, she has helped everyone so much!"

"The monster that eats people is the snake demon, and the one that kills people is also the snake demon! Obviously everything is the fault of the snake demon, why should you blame the witch!"

Hearing this, the old man said in a cold voice, "Even if the snake demon is the one who harmed people, even if she has never hurt anyone, but as a witch, she is the same as that monk, and she should not have compassion for monsters."

"As a priestess, she should protect everyone. Even if she fights to the death with the snake demon, that is her job as a priestess!"

Hearing this, Ezaki Junpei smiled with satisfaction, stepped forward and said, "That's right."

"It is the duty of people like us to exterminate the monsters. Let alone let go of the snake monster, even if we fail to complete the task to kill the snake monster, that is an unforgivable dereliction of duty!"

Speaking of Ezaki Junpei, he is full of anger. He is the leader in charge of the retreat of Kiyohime. If Abe Yayoi and Chi Qingqing were able to decisively kill Kiyohime in the hall, he would not Bear the anger and punishment of the people above.

Ezaki Junpei pushed all the faults on Chi Qingqing, counting the new and old grudges together, and began to order the people behind him to form a formation to kill him.

Seeing those onmyojis preparing to cast spells regardless of Yuzi was still beside her, Chi Qingqing's heart tightened, and she quickly jumped away from Yuzi.

In the next second, Yuzi was immediately embraced by her mother, "You child, you really scared me!"

Looking at the guarded and disgusted expressions of the people around, Yuzi's teary eyes flashed with confusion, "Obviously, everyone has been helped by Miko-sama, why do you want to do this?"

Hearing this, Yuzi's mother couldn't help but slap her, "Yuzi! What nonsense are you talking about! Have you been confused by that monster!"

Yuzi covered her cheeks, tears streaming down her face, she watched the bouquet of flowers being trampled to pieces by the onmyojis without saying a word.

Seeing Yuzi being beaten, Chi Qingqing's eyes flickered, but her face was pale and she couldn't say a word.

The eyes of the people around her were both familiar and unfamiliar, and they were exactly the same as the eyes of the surrounding humans when she was exposed by Yixiu Anzhen, whom she met for the first time in Naian City.

"Don't let her run away!" Ezaki Junpei sneered, and directed ten Onmyojis to quickly surround Chi Qingqing.

The corners of his lips curled slightly, and he squinted his eyes to communicate with Chi Qingqing with spiritual power, "Accept fate! My plan is foolproof, and no one will come to rescue you today."

Several strands of spiritual power shot up into the sky in all directions, forming an entangled cage of chains, trying to tie Chi Qingqing tightly.

She bit her lip tightly and curled up her hands in her sleeves.

With her spiritual power, she might be able to break free from the cage with all her strength.But Chi Qingqing's body seemed to be carrying a heavy stone. The feeling in her heart made her unable to breathe, and she was so dazed that she couldn't raise her hand to resist.

"Wait!" A majestic and angry voice suddenly sounded.

Seeing that the chain cage was about to be buckled, an extremely powerful spiritual force smashed it to pieces in an instant.

"Abe Seimei!" Ezaki Junpei was shocked when he saw the person coming, and forgot to say the honorifics for a while.

"Master Qingming! It's Master Qingming!" The crowd commotion violently, and a group of civilians fell to the ground, shouting excitedly.

Seeing this scene, Abe Seimei moved his fingers, closed his eyes slightly to suppress the complicated emotions in his heart.

Then he opened his eyes and said in a deep voice: "I have received the order from Yinyang Liao, and I will be responsible for Shimizu's matter. Ezaki Junpei, please step back, and I will handle this matter."

Ezaki Junpei's expression turned sharp, but he clenched his teeth, not daring to confront him at all.

As a god-like existence in everyone's hearts, Abe Seimei's prestige is extremely high. Even if he didn't attack Chi Qingqing at this moment, the crowd still respected him as before, without any objection.

"Come with me." Abe Seimei tilted his head slightly and whispered to Chi Qingqing.

Then he made a knot seal in his hand, and an imaginary dragon instantly appeared in the air, and instantly rolled up Chi Qingqing and disappeared on the spot.

The people around stared blankly at the disappearing dragon, bowed and hunched over to pay homage, muttering words in their mouths.

Ezaki Junpei also froze in place. He had always heard that Abe Seimei was guarded by a dragon. He originally thought that it was just that people deliberately deified him in order to praise Abe Seimei.

Unexpectedly, Shenlong actually existed.

In this world, is there really someone who is qualified to be guarded by a dragon?

But within a few breaths, Chi Qingqing was brought back to the mansion by Abe Seimei.
