The Legend of Tokyo Taoist

Chapter 383 Shadow of Truth (30)

Tachibana Mio was only a few steps away from Usa Miura's doll. She only needed to take a few more steps to pull her back.

"cherry!"

But these short steps became an insurmountable gap. She saw Usa Mio suddenly turned her back to her, so Tachibana Mio hurriedly wanted to step forward.

However, something strange happened. The roses in the pots on both sides of the terrace suddenly began to grow rapidly. The thorny vines entangled themselves around the railings and continued to grow. Soon, a wall of thorny vines formed in front of her.

"Tachibana Mio, you can't save her!" The Tanuki King shouted, "You are just a flower that is carefully cared for in a greenhouse. You are not from the same world as her! Does she really want you to save her? To give her charity?"

"Shut up!" Qian Xiaoyi used the ink line to tie up the mouth of the Civet Cat King. The Civet Cat King sneered and whimpered, "It's useless. You can't stop me from performing illusions in my territory. Usa Miura is finished! That little girl can't save her."

"You underestimate Miss Tachibana." Qian Xiaoyi scolded, "In order to find out the truth about her friend's disappearance, she has been searching alone for more than two years without any support! How could she give up like this? She is not a weak woman, but a warrior!"

The moment she saw Usa Mi Sakura turned around, Tachibana Mio yelled, "Usa Mi Sakura!"

She stretched out her hands without hesitation, tightly grasped the thorny vines in front of her, endured the pain, and forcibly tore a hole in the wall of thorny vines. Blood flowed from her palms, but she still squeezed into the gap full of thorns without hesitation, moving towards Usa Miura.

Countless spikes left bloody marks on her face, arms, and body, irritating her nerves, but she still gritted her teeth and moved forward.

King Kong looked at the projection and said in surprise: "What's going on! Doesn't he no longer have the ability to attack with illusions?"

"This guy's illusions don't just include vision," Qian Xiaoyi said in a deep voice, "but also touch, hearing, and smell."

“That’s right!” The Civet Cat King kept struggling on the ground. He said cruelly: “That is to say, the girl is now enduring severe pain as she moves forward! She can’t bear it! Even if she can get through, there is another test waiting for her, hehehehehe…”

"You bastard!" King Kong angrily beat the King of Civet Cats, but the King of Civet Cats did not resist at this time. He just held his head and smiled disgustingly, as if something that made him happy was about to happen soon.

"Go to hell." The King of Civet Cats had a crazy light in his eyes. "Don't think I'm easy to bully. No matter if it's a puppet or a congressman's daughter, anyone who wants to go against me, go to hell!"

Tachibana Mio finally passed through the wall of rose vines and came to the railing with scars all over her body. She grabbed the railing covered with vines with her bleeding hands and looked forward. Usa Mi Sakura was already standing on the edge of the terrace, looking back at her.

"Sakura..." Tachibana Mio wanted to say something when she saw the other person turn her head, take a step forward, and fall towards the abyss.

"I told you, Usa Miura, I will never allow you to die here so easily!"

Tachibana Mio stepped onto the railing, jumped up, grabbed Usa Mi Sakura's arm, but fell into the abyss with her.

"She jumped, she really jumped! Hahahaha!" The Civet Cat King laughed wildly, with such force that it even broke the ink line that bound his mouth. The Civet Cat King laughed wildly, "Haha~ Go to hell, stupid woman! There's hell ahead of her! Ahahahaha~~~ You're done!"

Qian Xiaoyi sneered and said, "Take another look."

The Civet Cat King was stunned and turned to look at the projection again.

Then, he saw Tachibana Mio holding onto Usa Mio's arm, and the two looked at each other as they fell at a very fast speed. "Impossible! Why haven't they fallen to death yet!" The King of Tanuki broke free from King Kong with red eyes and threw him out. The King of Tanuki stood up and roared, "They should have all fallen to death after falling for so long, why are they still there!"

"Mio..." Usami Sakura stared blankly at Mio Tachibana above.

"Promise me, you will never, ever let go." Tachibana Mio said seriously, "Let's fight together, no matter what the cost, no matter who the enemy is, we must fight to the end together!"

"—just like we did in the beginning."

"Yeah!" Yusa Mi Sakura's eyes blurred, and then she nodded heavily: "This time, I will definitely not let go."

Snapped!
The space and scene around Tachibana Mio shattered like a mirror, gravity reversed, wind and darkness descended again, the pressure of reality pressed on Tachibana Mio, she quickly woke up and saw her situation clearly.

At this moment, she was hanging on the edge of the rooftop terrace of WTV, and her outstretched hand was held tightly by someone, preventing her from falling and smashing into pieces on the road.

"Don't let go!" Suzuki gritted his teeth and shouted, "I'll pull you up!"

"I won't let go." Tachibana Mio shouted.

"Yeah." Suzuki added a hand and used all his strength to pull Tachibana Mio up. The two of them sat on the ground, pale and panting, as if all the strength in their bodies had been drained.

"Sakura..." Tachibana Mio looked up at the black sky. Behind the black curtain, there were faint stars shining, and no matter how dark the sky was, it could not cover them up.

"Mio!" Usa Miura's pupils refocused, and she saw that her hands were tightly grasping the railing of the terrace, not letting go. A courage that came from nowhere filled her chest, making her no longer hesitate or weak. She used her own strength to climb back up from the abyss to the ground.

"Impossible! Why would this happen! Just a puppet..." The raccoon cat king stretched out his claws in panic and released the silk thread, trying to control her again.

King Kong was thrown out and was very far away. He was anxious to remind, "Mr. Qian, stop him!"

"No need for that anymore." Qian Xiaoyi didn't make any move. He just calmly let the King of Civet Cats cast his spell.

Transparent silk threads were connected to the puppet's body, trying to control her every move, but after the puppet climbed onto the terrace, she walked forward without looking back. The silk threads on her body broke one by one, like notes, making pleasant sounds.

"Bastard!" The civet cat king roared with red eyes.

Usa Mi Sakura walked into the living room, picked up her cell phone and dialed a number.

"Mr. Nanajo? It's me, Usa Mi Sakura... I have a list in my hand, an important list."

At this time, Usa Miura's eyes were no longer confused, her eyes were firm and unwavering, like a warrior.
