Whoosh!
Though headless, the body instantly waved its sleeves, shooting out several talismans that released flashes and explosions.
Kogihagi swung her blade, cleaving through the talismans as well, but the next second, her chest exploded, her heart, back, and front chest blasted apart.
“Seriously, couldn’t you at least pay attention to your back?”
From behind the bloody hole where her heart had been, “another” Katsuhana appeared, smirking as she covered her mouth.
She materialized like a ghost, reaching out with her smoking pipe to tap the air.
Bang!

Kogihagi’s sword-wielding right hand was blown away.
However, the silver-haired girl swiftly drew her sword with her left hand, spinning to slash out; her sister, hidden behind her with stealth techniques, was struck along a diagonal angle on her left side, the blade precisely cutting through ribs, lungs, heart, and other organs.
“Splurt!”
Then, Kogihagi withdrew the blade from her sister Katsuhana’s right abdomen, her sister’s body splitting apart as a result; simultaneously, the severed hand and scattered flesh defied gravity, returning to the body.
The wound on Kogihagi of Kurokami Mountain’s chest began to rewind like a videotape. The injured chest instantly reverted to its original state. This was a near-immortal ability.
“Ku ku ku… what a despicable ability.”
The third Katsuhana appeared, holding a smoking pipe, taking a puff and exhaling a cloud of poisonous smoke.
In an instant, pale purple, bone-corroding poison smoke began to spread.
“However… don’t get too cocky, you damp woman. Guess how much poison, gu insects, and curses I’ve laid on you, being so close to me for so long.”
At the same time, the first Katsuhana, whose head had been cut off, grew flesh buds from her neck, sprouting mushroom-like nodules, rapidly regenerating a new head.
“That’s the second time you’ve chopped off my head.”
Her sleeves fluttered, the ceiling, tatami mats, folding screens, and indoor benches all covered in layers upon layers of talismans, as if the house itself was mimicked by talismans.
“Listen well, don’t think… you can get away with this easily!”
The severed head on the ground rotated its eyeballs, its bewitching and exquisite lips curving into a smile.
It also grew flesh bubbles from the severed neck, like the rapid growth of fungi, generating flesh and the kimono it wore.
At the same time, from the hem of Katsuhana’s kimono and sleeves, all sorts of bizarre poisonous insects and strange gu swarmed out endlessly, rushing towards Kogihagi in a frenzy.
“'Shura Magatsu'.”
The silver-haired girl’s empty right hand tightly gripped the demon blade “Shura Magatsu” that sprang from the shadows—the hilt wrapped with sharkskin using red hilt cord, the number “eleven” engraved on the habaki.
The curved blade also shimmered with crimson light, and the next instant, the demon blade’s edge trailed dazzling crimson afterimages as it charged forth, unleashing dragon breath and flames like a fire dragon’s exhalation with a single swing.
……
The fierce battle between the Kurokami Mountain sisters aside.
Baijie was also caught in a critical, extremely urgent moment—
“Eh~ Toads… how can there be such big toads!?”
When he and the female ninja Yoka arrived at the Renjo Trading Company, they saw a giant toad crouching there.
Yoka’s eyes stared blankly—it was a large toad with a round head, yellow skin covered in mucus, and a glossy sheen.
Croak, croak croak.
The giant toad puffed out its cheeks, making noises while fixing its gaze—it blocked their path, seemingly not allowing anyone from the Renjo Trading Company to leave.
“We’ve been discovered.”
Yoka felt like she was being watched, that the stealth technique had been seen through; she took out a talisman, but Baijie forcefully pressed her head down.
Whoosh.
The sound of the air being cut open came from above their heads, it was the giant toad spitting out its purple tongue—
The lanterns hanging in front of the store behind them were cut open, and the canopies of the outdoor stalls were shattered and blown away; the blade of the tongue slashed across the street, even the ground was shaved off.
“It’s the tongue.”
Baijie warned. This monster’s tongue was long and sharp, even more terrifying than a blade, enough to cut Baijie and Yoka in two.
“Wow~ how amazing~”
Yoka glanced behind her and stuck out her tongue.
“Left and right, let’s attack together.”
Baijie said in a low voice, choosing to rush forward on the right; he jumped from the ground onto the roof of a street-side store, the spiritual power under his feet exploding, blowing away the tiles of the roof under his feet as he raced forward at extreme speed.
Yoka also moved along the street from the left, throwing out several paper shikigami, constructing a small shield-type barrier while running forward at high speed.
The toad monster’s purple tongue could only attack one enemy at most; attacking from the left and right, there would always be times when it couldn’t reach.
Croak.
The toad opened its mouth, slightly raising its head, as if locking onto Baijie, its tongue shooting out like a spear.
“It’s aiming at me?”
Baijie wasn’t afraid, the spear-blade stabbed out, the enormous force transmitted over, he shouted loudly, operating his spear technique, using the spear shaft’s elasticity to violently collide with the tongue—though it was just a tongue, the collision produced a heavy metallic sound.
The tiles under his feet exploded, but the tongue was also deflected; unexpectedly, however, the long tongue made a turn in mid-air, attacking Yoka below, who was always a step slower than Baijie.
With a crisp “ping,” the shield constructed by the paper shikigami was shattered.
Whoosh!
The purple tongue was about to pierce the girl’s body like a cannonball.
At that instant, Yoka’s figure disappeared!
No, she teleported to the other side, using the Shrinking Earth technique to jump onto the opposite roof.
Baijie also took this opportunity to roar loudly, like an agile swallow thrusting the spear tip into the ground, piercing through the tongue and “nailing” it to the ground.
Using the precious “Shrinking Earth Talisman,” the female ninja served as bait—she wore straw sandals, stepping forward on the merchant house’s roof tiles, the expression on her face bright and lively.
“Lin, Bing, Dou, Zhe…”
Her right hand quickly drew four vertical and five horizontal lines. Nine spiritual talismans also flew out, the talismans summoning scorching flames containing the power of the “Nine Syllable Mantra” in the air, falling like a volcanic torrent towards the giant toad.
Boom!
The giant toad was hit, flames erupting fiercely all over its body.
Croak.
This was considered a final, miserable cry, the toad’s body exploding.
Success.
Baijie didn’t feel a sense of relief in his heart; at the moment the toad monster was killed, vast demonic auras were gathering in this direction from areas outside this street.
“Coming so fast.”
He saw a mass of pitch-black aura in mid-air, a “lump” formed by many small, insect-like demons gathering.
The lump was composed of countless tiny demons, swarming towards Baijie and Yoka like flying insects.
Whoosh!
The aura attacked like a demonic wind.
Damn it!
In that instant, as if being washed away by turbid currents, Baijie almost lost his footing, insect-sized demons covering his body.
Baijie also felt extreme discomfort, waving his hands and feet to resist, but to no avail; this fly-insect army composed of miscellaneous demons was attempting to invade all openings in his body, such as eyes, ears, and mouth.
Okay, although it hardly hurt, it felt extremely uncomfortable, and if they really invaded, he would be deprived of his life force and lose his stamina.
“Get lost!”
He released the spiritual power in his body, blasting away all the small demons on his body.
However, more demonic winds blew from the side, attacking in his direction.
“Enough, the miscellaneous demons must have sensed the battle here and are rushing in this direction!”
A familiar old man’s voice sounded.
“Quickly enter the Renjo Trading Company’s barrier, or it will be troublesome if the demons outside target you!”
Hearing this voice, Baijie immediately knew who it was.
“Lord Matsudaira.”
Matsudaira Inomaro, wearing light samurai armor, rushed over, his katana swinging violently, a fierce spiritual power erupting, sweeping away the nearby demonic aura like a clearing.
“You two, come in quickly!”
The old man Matsudaira also saved Yoka, who was under attack, leading the two into the Renjo Trading Company.
……
Finally, they had reunited.
Baijie discovered that there were quite a few people inside the Renjo Trading Company’s hall; he found that the trading company had taken in many residents of the city in addition to the original staff and servants.
“Miss Katsuhana arranged for us to come here, and several people from the Riyu Clinic… I just don’t know how things are on her side?”
The old man Matsudaira frowned.
“The situation on the lord’s side is completely unknown, the interior is swallowed by the miasma of the impure spirits.”
“The Second Miss is fine.”
Baijie had relatively more confidence in the Second Miss, and if she really encountered danger, if even a powerful person like Katsuhana was helpless, then returning to the castle would be a death sentence for them.
“By the way, what is the situation with Lord Yomyo and Miss Ayaka?”
He remembered the protagonist and his adopted sister, eagerly wanting to know their recent situation.
‘Ah… that voice, could it be Lord Baijie!!’
A blue butterfly floated beside the old man Matsudaira, it should be a shikigami, from which Yomyo Tsukigara’s excited voice came.
‘Please rest assured, we have no problems here… however, Ayaka, Little Yeme and I are now staying at the Ciji Hospital, I’m really sorry, we should have gone to the trading company to meet you.’
‘Brother, what are you shouting so loudly about?’
‘Ayaka, listen to me…’
She excitedly told her adopted sister Ayaka in a low voice: ‘That, is Bai…’
‘Alright, I know.’
Ayaka interrupted her before she could finish.
“I will relay the situation next, brother, please go repair the Ciji Hospital’s barrier, leave this small matter to me.”
‘Wa、wait a moment, let me talk more with Lord Baijie…’
Her voice became blurred.
‘Brother, don’t make me say it a second time.’
‘Eh? Why is it like this…’
Ayaka ignored her complaints and said in a deep voice: “Lord Matsudaira, and Lord Baijie, we are fine, also, the situation at the Ciji Hospital is temporarily stable, how is the situation on your side?”
“There are no major problems on the trading company’s side.”
The old man Matsudaira sighed: “But this can’t go on like this, the castle, the Sacred Cherry Company, and the demon aura miasma in the castle town are all getting stronger, the surrounding demons will be attracted.”
“We must resolve all of this.”
Baijie said decisively: “In the current situation, we must not sit idly by, we must completely resolve the root cause of all this before the situation completely deteriorates.”
He then asked the old man Matsudaira.
“I would like to ask, where is the trading company’s Lord Renjo?”
“What do you need me for?”
Suddenly, a somewhat senile voice sounded.
Baijie turned his head and saw Renjo Senjuro, who seemed to have aged several years.
This purveyor, who originally gave a sense of being shrewd and capable, also looked somewhat pale.
Behind Renjo Senjuro were the three extremely beautiful puppets, and the trading company’s group of guards.
“Mr. Renjo, what is this?”
The old man Matsudaira was also somewhat puzzled.
“We are preparing to evacuate from here.”
Renjo sighed: “Kasumi Castle is finished, I am a merchant, since there is no profit to be made here, I must leave.”
“Lord Renjo.”
Baijie asked expressionlessly: “Are you planning to use the secret passage that the trading company built here to leave with the people of the trading company?”
Renjo’s eyes showed a hint of surprise, he didn’t know why Baijie knew this secret.
“That’s right, however, the people here can also leave with us.”
“You can’t leave.”
Baijie said lightly: “At this time, you cannot leave Kasumi Castle.”
“I can’t leave.”
Renjo found it amusing.
“Why?”
“You promised me a request, saying you would fulfill one of my wishes.”
Baijie said calmly to him.
“Now, I hope you can help me save someone.”
“Who do you want to save?”
Renjo Senjuro’s face was full of suspicion, he didn’t understand why this young man would say such a thing at this critical moment.
“Hiiragi Hiruko.”
Baijie said firmly: “The High Miko of the Sacred Cherry Company, only by saving her can we resolve the current crisis, and even Kasumi Castle can be saved.”
