The Book of Maiden Contract

In the huge square of the underworld, a girl in pure white armor stood there with a dumbfounded expression. Her most powerful strength was broken by the enemy's blow, let alone fighting back, there was no room for even a trace of resistance. In this battle, she was completely defeated.

What made her even more unable to calm down was that Lin Luo was actually captured in front of her, and she could only watch helplessly. This situation made her feel powerless and guilty, and at the same time, she was more disturbed. With Yakumo Zi's strength, the current Lin Luo is definitely not her opponent. If the other party wants to do something wrong, the consequences will be disastrous.

"Well, don't worry, Zi has said that he won't hurt him, and, even for my sake, Zi won't mess around." Yuyuko floated down from Sakura Peak, cast a reassuring look at Lily, and comforted.

"...I hope so." After listening to her words, Lily's uneasiness disappeared immediately. She is not a brainless person. Yakumo Zi's strength is so strong. If she really has malicious intentions, she doesn't need to do this. She and Lin Luo can't stop her at all. Although they don't know what the other party's purpose is, but as Yuyuko said, there should be no danger to his life.

However, thinking about it this way, I still can't take it lightly in my heart. Even if there is no danger, the feeling that this kind of life cannot be controlled by oneself is still unbearable.

We can't go on like this, we must become stronger!

"Underworld, is there a place for me to practice?" Suddenly, Lily raised her head to look at Youyouzi, and said seriously.

With her current strength, she can't fight Yakumo Zi at all, not to mention Yakumo Zi, even Yuyuko in front of her may not be able to fight, such strength can't gain a foothold in Gensokyo. Anyway, she has no way to pursue Yakumo Zi now, and Yuyuko also said that Lin Luo will not be in danger, so use this time to completely raise her realm, so that similar things will not happen again!

"A place to practice..." Youyuko was slightly taken aback, "Do you want a more dangerous place or a safer one?"

"Uh...anywhere that makes it possible for me to become stronger."

"Then, shall we go to the Mitsutomb? It is one of the most dangerous places in Gensokyo, both for humans and monsters. If you can live there for a while and come out safely, you should be stronger than you are now... Ah, actually, in my opinion, you are already strong enough now, and you don't need to practice at all." Yuyuko waved her hand and smiled naturally.

"...Okay, let's go to the Tomb of No Fate."

Lily said firmly.

...A piece of darkness, there seem to be countless eyes in the darkness, here is the gap of Yakumozi.

Lin Luo said that the gap is terrible. Before, he was still paying attention to the battle between Lily and Yakumo Zi, but in a blink of an eye Lily was defeated by one move, and the battle was over. Before he could react, he had already fallen into Yakumo Zi's hands, unable to move, and was pulled into the gap abruptly.

So far, the only one who can make him invincible is Guigui Laixi, but he didn't expect the same result when facing Yakumo Zi. I have to say...the seventeen-year-old girl is very good and strong.

"The moment I saw you, I had the urge to kill you." Just as Lin Luo was thinking this, Yakumo Zi's crisp and elegant voice sounded beside her ears, but what she said could scare people half to death.

"But then I changed my mind again, I can't kill you." Before Lin Luo could speak, Yakumo Zi said again, this sentence was like pressing back his heart that almost jumped out... It's really shocking, Mama Zi!

"Why?" Lin Luo couldn't help asking.

Yakumo Zi leaned over Lin Luo's back, put her head on Lin Luo's shoulder, and grinned... Her smile should be considered sweet, but because it was too sweet, Lin Luo trembled a little.

"When I saw you before, I saw the destruction of Gensokyo. In order to keep Gensokyo, I had to kill you, but then I saw that it was because of you that Gensokyo can continue." Yakumo Zi breathed all over Lin Luo's face when he was speaking, which made him unable to calm down... The terrifying beauty monster, the lethality in all aspects is amazing.

"Do you have the ability to predict the future?" Lin Luo turned his head slightly to avoid Yakumo Zi's breath attack, and asked suspiciously.

"No, it was calculated instantly."

"..." You are really powerful, you can calculate such things, you are better than Jiang Taigong. Lin Luo complained secretly, but his eyes were full of doubts, "Why do you think I will destroy Gensokyo, and then save Gensokyo?"

"I don't think so, the deduced thing is just a possibility, so I'm curious about you, what kind of power do you have to be able to do that?" Speaking of this, Yakumo Zi suddenly raised his chin, with a strange smile on the corner of his mouth, and said very frivolously, "I'm so curious that I want to eat you up."

"...Forget it, I don't like it very much." Lin Luo didn't know which way to eat it. If it was another way, he would be very happy, but no matter how he looked at it, Zi Ma would not eat him in another way.

"Don't worry, I won't eat you for the time being."

Not yet, will it be later?

Just as she was thinking, the scene in front of her suddenly changed, Yakumo Zi tore open the space, and the next moment they walked out of the gap, here was a very ordinary wooden house.

"Is this the Yakumo's house?" Lin Luo couldn't help asking, anyway, Zima said she wouldn't eat him or kill him, so there's nothing to be afraid of, as long as she doesn't do things that make her angry.

"It seems that you know quite a lot. That's right, this is where I live, on the horizon of the boundary line." Yakumo Zi said nonchalantly, then walked to the couch in the room and sat down, patted the seat next to her, and greeted warmly, "Come on, sit down and let's have a good chat."

Although he didn't know what Yakumo Zi wanted to talk to him about, but since the idler had already spoken, Lin Luo couldn't say "no, my mother told me to go home for dinner" and sat down next to Yakumo Zi.

"Ah! Master Zi, you are back..." As soon as he sat down, Lin Luo saw that the door on the right was pushed open, and then a woman with nine tails walked out, holding a plate of fried tofu in her hand... Seeing this person, Lin Luo was stunned, completely speechless with his mouth open.

This woman is the Shikigami Yakumo Lan of Yakumo Zi, a nine-tailed demon fox, the most powerful monster in Gensokyo. The more tails the monster has, the stronger it will be, and the longer it will be, the smarter it will be. The only one who can reach this pinnacle is her—Nine Tails Yakumolan, the strategist.

Literally, she has nine large tails, the color of her coat is beautiful, and she has a divine aura brewing. Like the master, she is also a powerful person with both strength and intelligence. In terms of strength, she is also an incomplete level. It's just that as Yakumo Zi's shikigami, she has been doing odd jobs for Yakumo Zi, which caused her limelight to be overshadowed, but made her invisible.

Of course, this is not the reason why Lin Luo was shocked. After all, he and Yakumo Zi are already on an equal footing, so how could he be intimidated by Yakumo Zi's shikigami? The real reason is... Yakumo Lan is now [***], except for a strange-looking hat on his head, he is wearing nothing on his body, and his top, bottom, inside and outside are all exposed in front of his eyes. It's really a big blessing!

Clang!

With a crisp sound, the plate of fried tofu in Yakumo Lan's hand fell to the ground, and the whole person was stunned. Seeing Yakumo Zi here was enough to surprise her, but when she saw Lin Luo, she was even more calm. The good-looking [***] was seen by a strange man. It was simply... "Wow!" Through the door, Lin Luo could still hear her frantic voice.

"..." Lin Luo looked at the plate of fried tofu on the ground, and then looked up at Yakumo Zi, looking very embarrassed, but to his surprise, Yakumo Zi didn't say anything, as if nothing happened, drinking tea leisurely, and handed him a cup at the same time.

Well, it would be great if nothing happened... Lin Luo complained.

About half a minute later, the door was pushed open again. Maybe it was a habit. Yakumo Lan changed clothes very quickly. In such a short time, she was already fully dressed, like an ancient literati, with her hands intertwined in her sleeves... Lin Luo thought wickedly, maybe she didn't wear underwear.

"Master Zi." Yakumo Lan seemed to have forgotten what happened just now, her face was as calm as usual, she walked to Yakumo Zi, and bowed slightly.

"Yeah." Yakumo Zi nodded lightly, "Lan, have you been under a lot of pressure recently?"

"..." Lin Luo looked away, and chose to ignore them. It is said that the reason why Yakumo Lan would run around naked at home is because of the owner's indiscretions, eating and being lazy, and there is a lively shikigami underneath, plus the trouble of wearing clothes with a big tail, which leads to a lot of stress on weekdays.

"That...it's okay." Yakumolan's expression was a little restless, his eyes rolled, he began to change the subject, looked at Lin Luo and said, "By the way, Master Zi, who is this?"

"Oh, his name is Lin Luo. He is the husband I found for you. Are you satisfied?"

"Pfft!" Lin Luo just took a sip of tea, sprayed it all out, and almost fell off the couch.

"Master Zi...Zi-sama?!" Yakumo Lan was obviously stunned by the thunder, with a look of embarrassment on her face, standing there at a loss, even with her IQ, she was powerless to answer this kind of question.

"I think he's not bad, with a little M tendency. If you usually have a lot of work pressure, you can vent it on him and relieve the pressure properly, and he should be very happy." Yakumo Zi said very seriously, as if this matter has been decided.

"..." Lin Luo couldn't complain, and when he subconsciously looked at Yakumo Lan, he found that the other party was also looking at him, and there was a hint of thinking in his eyes, as if hesitating.

But when her eyes collided with Lin Luo, she probably remembered the streaking incident before, her face blushed slightly, and she immediately turned her head away, "Master Zi, I don't like M men, and I'm your shikigami, I... I won't marry!"

Nima! Brother is not an M man! Lin Luo really wanted to roar.

"That's it, that's really a pity..." Yakumo Zi sighed slightly, and just when Lin Luo thought her joke was over, she heard her say, "Then betroth him to Cheng."

"..." Zima, have you changed your job to become a matchmaker? Or are you so worried about your children's lifelong events? Lin Luo completely collapsed. Yakumo Zi's words made him feel that he had been regarded as the other party's goods, and he could give it back and forth at will, which was too tangled.

"Well, I think it's better for us to talk about the business." Lin Luo couldn't help but said, he hasn't considered joining Yakumo's family yet, but he doesn't mind if it's the other way around.

"It's a business too." Yakumo Zi asked with a straight face, "Do you think I was joking just now?"

"Huh?" Lin Luo was stunned, he really felt that Zi Ma was joking, but the other party's expression now said, "That... are you serious?"

"Of course it's true." Yakumo Zi said decisively.

"Master Zi, I think Cheng... is still young, not suitable for marriage..." Yakumo Lan said weakly.

"It doesn't matter, just develop it slowly." Yakumo Zi didn't care at all, and said as a matter of course, "Didn't they all exist in ancient times, such as child brides, we can do the opposite, let him be Cheng's playmate and toys now, and let them be husband and wife when Cheng grows up."

"This... If Master Zi is determined to do so, I have no objection." Although Yakumo Lan said so, it can be seen that there is obviously a big opinion on her face.

Hey Hey hey! Why did you even agree? Lin Luo complained that he couldn't.

"Okay, then this matter is decided..."

"Wait a minute!" Before Yakumo Zi finished speaking, Lin Luo immediately shouted, he hadn't expressed his opinion yet.

"What? Do you have any opinions?" Yakumo Zi looked at him indifferently.

"Of course." At this time, Lin Luo had to express his position. He didn't want to be Cheng's toy. "I think this matter needs to be discussed. A husband and wife need feelings. A marriage without feelings is unfortunate, so..."

Yakumo Zi shook her head, "It's okay, feelings can be cultivated slowly, anyway, Cheng has plenty of time, and you are not an ordinary person, there is no problem in living a thousand or eight hundred years."

"No, in fact there are many details..."

Yakumo Zi was at ease, "You don't need to care about the details, the ones who care about the details are all ⑨."

"..." I don't know why, but Lin Luo couldn't find any words to refute, which is so strange.

"I'm thinking about you. Cheng is so cute, so I don't treat you badly." Seeing Lin Luo's tangled face, Yakumo Zi smiled slightly, resting his chin on one hand, looking at Lin Luo, "If you really don't want to marry Cheng, then come and be my shikigami, how about it?"
