The Legend of Tokyo Taoist

Chapter 706 Hope and Despair (9)

"What a joke! This is ridiculous!" Shichijo Masato roared, "Let's get out!"

This is the street, even if it is late at night, he doesn't believe that the other party dares to use violence here.

After hearing what Shichijo Masato said, the young man showed a funny expression. He actually took the initiative to make way and made a "please" gesture.

"Heitaro, let's go!" Nanajo Masato was full of doubts, but still wanted to escape from here. Unexpectedly, as soon as he took a step, he was grabbed by the collar by Inuyama Heita behind him.

"Careful!" Inuyama Heita shouted.

The ugly shadow passed by Shichijo Masato and was almost about to grab his head, but Inuyama Heita punched the evil spirit in the face and knocked it back.

Nanajo Masato looked around and found that they were surrounded by evil spirits that came out of several bottles. In this case, even if the other party gave way, they could not easily escape.

"Is this the so-called Aquarius? There are so many of them." It was the first time that Nanajo Masato saw such a thing. He looked around and saw more than a dozen people in black robes who kept muttering some spells. In other words, there were more than a dozen evil spirits waiting for them here? !
"No!" Ah Jian's voice came: "I didn't feel that there were so many evil spirits on the other side. I'm afraid most of them are ordinary believers who are responsible for the atmosphere. Only a few are Aquarius Envoys."

Inuyama Heita said: "Mr. Ken is right. It seems that the Aquarius is not something they can consume at will. That's why they are so eager to launch a counterattack. The alliance's attack has made these people impatient."

He looked around cautiously. Although the surrounding ghost domain had not yet fully formed, if they were ordinary people, they would just rush out regardless of the consequences.

But unfortunately, he and Shichijo Masato are both psychics, which means that connections that would take a long time for ordinary people to establish can be established in them in an instant. In other words, the moment they can see those evil spirits, the other party can also hurt them.

"Damn it..." Inuyama Heita thought in annoyance, "With so many people here, even if I use [Ignore], I can't force my way out. And there's also Mr. Nanajo here..."

He put the phone back into his pocket. He had already sent an emergency message, which was a distress message prepared in advance. This place was not far from the office. As long as they held on for a while, reinforcements would arrive.

"Mr. Nanajo, hold on," said Inuyama Heita.

Nanajo Masato nodded: "Yes, I understand."

Seeing this, the young leader of the other side laughed and said, "Oh? The message has been sent, right? That's good. As long as we wait for the psychic detective to arrive, our goal will be achieved. You cooperated very well."

Inuyama Heita was stunned for a moment, then his heart sank: "Are you using me to set a trap?!"

"You have gone too far." The young man looked at him coldly. "You exorcists have nothing to do with our sect, but you actually dared to take the lead in launching an attack and want to destroy the grand plan of the Patriarch. This is unforgivable."

Ken said in Inuyama Heita's mind: "These guys are completely clueless. They are indeed a bunch of stupid fanatics."

Nanajo Masato said: "What the hell? Didn't you initiate the attack first? You are just a subordinate organization of the Hundred Ghosts!" "Hundred Ghosts?" The young man frowned: "I don't know what you are talking about, but it doesn't matter, because you will be devoured by the Holy Spirit soon..."

The black-robed people around were murmuring even louder, some were even shaking with excitement, while the evil spirits in the bottles became more resentful and rushed towards the two people in the center.

"Mr. Nanajo, be careful!" Inuyama Heita took a boxing stance and stimulated the blood in his body. A layer of faint flame burned on the surface of his body. Although it was not as vigorous as King Kong who had practiced for decades, as a young man full of blood and energy, this level was enough to deal with some evil spirits.

Inuyama Heita changed his steps and attacked the evil spirits with his fists burning with fire. Just a slight touch would make the evil spirits wail and retreat.

"Watch out!" Inuyama Heita shouted loudly and punched an evil spirit in the face, causing it to scream and immediately retreat back into the bottle.

When Nanajo Masato saw this, he couldn't help but say, "Wow! So Heitaro, you're so strong?"

Inuyama Heita ignored him and concentrated on dealing with the enemy. Inuyama Heita felt that the strength of these evil spirits was far inferior to the enemies that Brother O and the others were dealing with. He had dealt with these Aquarius users together with King Kong before and had some experience, so he was not afraid at all.

But now he is not alone. Nanajo Masato behind him is also attacked. Two evil spirits take advantage of the moment when Inuyama Heita is dealing with other evil spirits and rush towards Nanajo Masato with screams.

Nanajo Masato subconsciously put his hands in front of himself, but he didn't expect that the expected attack did not come at all. He opened his eyes and saw two middle-aged office workers in front of him. They took the attack on Nanajo Masato's behalf. After noticing Nanajo Masato's gaze, one of them even gave him a thumbs up:
"Don't worry, guests! Our company will definitely guarantee your safety!"

Nanajo Masato couldn't help but say, "What kind of company is this?"

“Hey~ Not bad~” The young man opposite was a little surprised, and put away his contempt: “That psychic detective, even an assistant is of this level, he is worthy of being one of the powerful enemies designated by the Patriarch... But it doesn’t matter, no matter how strong he is, he will definitely fall here soon, and before that, I will come and take care of you first, high school student.”

Inuyama Heita snorted coldly: "With your level? Even I can deal with this so-called Aquarius user, let alone Brother Yi. No matter how many of them come, it will be useless."

“Am I looked down upon?” The young man shook his head and said, “By the way, I haven’t introduced myself yet. My name is Saito Yuichi. As you can see, I am a member of the Holy Church of Hope. But don’t get me wrong, I am not just an Aquarius Envoy…”

Ken warned: "Inuyama clan, it's not good! Those guys have distorted the surrounding aura, and a new ghost domain has been formed!"

As the whispers of the fanatics enveloped the area, the surrounding environment had become completely dark. Even the street lights in the distance turned into tiny, barely visible dots of light. The entire world seemed to be covered with a layer of black glass. The surrounding aura was distorted and became eerie.

Inuyama Heita pondered: "The twisted minds of these evil followers formed this ghostland, just like Brother Yi's magic circle. It is very easy to get rid of it. All we need to do is defeat enough people..."

But physical means probably won't work, as the other party may be waiting for him to do so and put him in a social and legal crisis, so using violence is absolutely not an option.

"Is the only way to defeat you in the ghost realm?" Inuyama Heita pondered. It seemed that this was the only way at the moment. After all, he didn't want to go to jail for violent injury.
