Taking Lingjiu Yilin with him, Zhou Yuan set out to look for Tongzi.

“Hmmmm~~”Along the way, Yilin held her soft hands behind her head, humming happily, with a smile on her pretty face.

Zhou Yuan, who was infected by Yilin’s mood and looked at the lively girl, couldn’t help but smile.

“Zhou Yuan, you should smile more too. You were not like this when we first met.”

Little Yilin, who was walking in front, turned around and said to Zhou Yuan with a smile.

Zhou Yuan was stunned when he heard that.

Yes, when Zhou Yuan first came to the Monster Mountain and met Yilin, Iizuna Marulong and the others, he had just experienced the pressure of the Four Fighting Gods and gained unimaginable power. He was in the happiest and most conceited moment. At that time, he drank with the Tengu and a ghost king of the entire Monster Mountain during the day, and fought with the ghost king at night. How comfortable and high-spirited he was.

But it seems that after hearing about the tree of the underworld, his mood has always been a little low, a little….Not like him anymore.

Zhou Yuan laughed

“Just like a crane out of a cage, once it escapes the cage, all roads lead to success!”, I thought I was so happy and free, but I didn’t expect to fall into the trap, and I had to let Yilin wake me up!

He smiled and chanted words that made Yilin confused and completely incomprehensible, and then hugged little Yilin tightly in his arms. Although Yilin didn’t understand what he was saying, looking at Zhou Yuan’s smiling face, she finally showed a beautiful and thrilling smile.

Yilin sat in Zhou Yuan’s arms, her little head resting on his chest, listening to the man’s laughter and strong heartbeat. The masculine scent that came to her nose made her eyes blurred and she couldn’t help but stunned.

Zhou Yuan felt as if Relieved of a heavy burden, he suddenly looked back and realized that he had become like this without knowing when. Now thinking about it again, the tree of the underworld, Hecatia, no matter what conspiracy, calculation, or even destined fate.

Only war! The essential rule that this world implements to the end is only power!

As he was talking, he came to a village, which was where Tongzi was.

What caught his eye were monsters all over the mountains and plains, besieging the village and a huge barrier with terrifying spiritual power.

Zhou Yuan, who was in an unprecedented happy and relaxed state of mind, decided to let go. Let them go.

Zhou Yuan held a small red ball of light in his hand. The ball of light seemed to emit an unimaginable high temperature, distorting the air around it.

He threw the ball of light out, and in an instant, dazzling light and heat burst out.

When everything disappeared, there were no monsters in front of him, only the barrier remained. Zhou Yuan’s control of power was perfect, and the bursting energy was tightly restrained without damaging the barrier at all. Master Zhou was kind-hearted and could not bear to see these monsters suffer in the world, so he decided to let them go and let them have eternal peace. What kind of person is this? The mercy of waiting, Amitabha.

Before he could say anything, the barrier opened by itself.

From the barrier, a very beautiful but sad-looking woman walked out slowly.

She was wearing a plain white furisode kimono, with only a string of scarlet prayer beads hanging on her slender jade neck, and four pendants hanging on it. She had no other decorations. She had black hair that fell to her waist. The woman was very beautiful, but her expression was depressed. There was a trace of sadness in her dark pupils, and she looked like she was about to die. She didn’t look like a young woman in her prime at all.

It was the purpose of this trip, the witch of the barrier, Hitomi.

“”Thank you for saving me. I am deeply grateful. Please condescend to enter the shrine for a chat.”

She bowed slightly and invited him.

Zhou Yuanyuan followed the shrine maiden into the shrine.

Tongzi poured tea with her bare hands and looked at the man who suddenly appeared in front of her.

“I wonder what instructions you have for me, Your Majesty. I will obey them.”

Zhou Yuan laughed twice, but did not say anything directly, just asked

“Why did those monsters come to besiege this place?”

He was really confused.

The original work described that Hitomi’s spiritual power was no less than Kikyo’s.

She was the top shrine maiden.

Moreover, unlike Kikyo who was good at using demon-breaking spiritual power and focused on offense, Hitomi’s power was more reflected in the super strong barrier, focusing on protection.

It was precisely because of this that Naraku thought that Hitomi was a great threat to him, so he had been harassing Hitomi, sending a bunch of monsters to attack the city whenever he had nothing to do, making Hitomi exhausted and even suicidal, thinking that death was the relief that he finally embraced.

But there was no Naraku in this world. The shrine maiden who guarded the jade was famous all over the world, and even Zhou Yuan had heard of it. To be frank, he had long wanted to meet the shrine maiden in his childhood dream, but he had never found the opportunity.

Kikyo was still alive, Touga had long died, Inuyasha did not exist, and Inuyasha’s plot had long been a mess. There was no reason why it was still like this when it came to Hitomi.

The shrine maiden in front of him sighed.

“I don’t know why the emperor is interested in this kind of thing, but this is a very long story, so I’ll make it short.”

She seemed to finally have someone to talk to, and her sad and miserable expression eased a little.

“When I was a child, due to an accident, a fragment of the killing stone was lodged in my body.”

“I was born with extremely powerful spiritual power, so I was able to suppress the fragment of the killing stone, but because of this, I was targeted by a monster from nowhere. It was a white-haired boy who looked to be in his teens, and was extremely insidious and cunning.”

Having said this, Tongzi paused and finally showed some hatred.

“Perhaps in order to seize the fragments of the Killing Stone, the monster has been harassing this village for more than ten years. It has not been summoning monsters to attack the city like today, or it has been plotting all kinds of conspiracies. My grandfather died because of this.”

Zhou Yuan was a little dazed. Why did this plot look so familiar? It seemed to have awakened some ancient memories.

But he really couldn’t remember it for a moment. He just felt that the Killing Stone sounded very familiar. If he remembered correctly, it was related to Tamamonomae, a well-known monster.

Speaking of which, in this complicated world, Tamamonomae, Yuyuko, the white-faced golden-haired nine-tailed fox, and the future Yakumo Aoi who was nowhere to be found, Zhou Yuan really couldn’t tell them apart, but maybe the fox monster was just so powerful, mass-producing all kinds of crouching dragons and phoenixes.

But it doesn’t matter, because he, Zhou Yuan, is here

“I came here to ask you for a favor. As a token of my sincerity, I will take care of this white-haired kid.”

Zhou Yuan said bluntly.
