The Legend of Tokyo Taoist

Chapter 873: Night Parade of One Hundred Demons (14)

Seeing Amahara Mari's reaction, Ashiya Yoshisuke rolled up his sleeves and said to Hoshiba Rang beside him: "This Patriarch reacted very quickly. He thought of how to deal with our attack so quickly. He actually blamed us for all the problems that might happen to him... Well, it's true."

Xingchang Rang curled his lips and said, "What's more difficult is that those believers will really believe this. In order to keep their faith from collapsing, they will use all kinds of excuses to deceive themselves... Now all the pressure is on Mr. Inuyama. He is the leader. If he doesn't hold on, or says something wrong, we may have to face those crazy believers who have lost their minds."

This is the current situation. The person who is under the greatest pressure right now is not Qian Xiaoyi, who is the focus of attention, but Inuyama Jun, who represents all the victims.

Inuyama Jun's palms were covered in sweat. Facing the unfriendly gazes of hundreds of believers across from him, he was also thinking about how to refute them.

"Even if it's for Heita..." Inuyama Jun's body was shaking with tension. He looked at Amahara Mari with hatred, with a fire burning in his heart. It was this hatred that had been brewing for many years and the guilt towards his son that prevented him from collapsing under such heavy pressure.

"Don't panic. We have discussed this countless times before the battle." Inuyama Jun thought, "We definitely cannot let Mr. Qian speak out to refute it personally at this moment. That would damage his identity as a mysterious exorcist and put pressure on him. So in order to attract hatred, I must become the target of public criticism!"

"Mari Amahara!" Inuyama Jun shouted into the loudspeaker, "Or rather, your real name is Hayafune Katsuhiko! You were once imprisoned for fraud, and after you got out, you founded the predecessor of the Church of Hope, the [Supernova Children's Potential Development Institute]! You used the excuse of developing superpowers to deceive countless families, and even your daughter, the current Saint of the Church of Hope, Chizuru Hayafune! She also became your tool for fraud. Does everyone know about these things?"

The moment he heard the name "Hayafune Katsuhiko", Amahara Mari's blood froze. This name was the secret he didn't want anyone to mention! The immaturity, weakness, and stains of the past must not be associated with the current "Saint" Amahara Mari.

"The Saint Lady is the daughter of the Patriarch?"

"Who is this Hayafune Katsuhiko he's talking about?"

"Superpower development? Only idiots would believe in that, right?"

"What are you talking about? Super powers do exist!"

A mocking smile appeared on Ashiya Yoshisuke's lips. It's not like he had done nothing in the past twenty years. The true identity of Amahara Mari was a sharp sword that he had hidden away, waiting to be taken out at the critical moment. If it weren't for Taoist Jingde who had been hiding in the dark, how could he be afraid of such a clown-like character?

Amahara Mari's expression was visibly panicked for a moment, but soon, his professional ethics made him start thinking: "I don't know how this guy knew it, but anyway, as long as he doesn't admit it and as long as he responds calmly, my believers will not believe them!"

Just when he was about to say something, the Taoist priest in yellow on the sedan chair moved. As Qian Xiaoyi closed his eyes and chanted a spell, the familiar power returned to Amahara Mari's body. His body swelled up again, appearing extremely tall and mighty. Mortals could only prostrate themselves at his feet and worship him.

However, this also means that he will become a God, and gods will not rack their brains to survive like mortals.

Mari Amahara's thoughts were interrupted again!
"Katsuhiko Hayafune! Why don't you speak!" Inuyama Jun shouted with a loud speaker: "Do you feel guilty after hearing this name? Answer me! You liar! You use tricks like bending spoons to deceive the people and squeeze money from those families. This is your true face! And you lead people to find happiness? Don't laugh to death! You liar!" Liar, Katsuhiko Hayafune, superpowers... These taboo words in Amahara Mari's heart have been repeated continuously, and finally made the [God] lose his mind.

"Shut up! I'm not the Hayafune Katsuhiko you mentioned!" Amahara Mari spoke.

The giant looked down expressionlessly at the ant who dared to offend the majesty of God: "I am - Amahara Mari, the only saint in the world, and the beacon that guides people to the other side of happiness. I am the spokesperson of God and the incarnation of God in the world! Do you know what you are saying now? Are you ready to pay the price for insulting me?"

Mari Amahara's words immediately aroused the fanaticism of the most devout believers beside the float, and they looked at Inuyama Jun with hatred for the arrogant words.

"You bastard! You are slandering me!"

"Developing super powers or something like that, how could Amahara-sama do something as ridiculous as that?"

"We have a more sacred power..."

Nanajo Masato, who was mixed in the crowd, was sweating profusely. He could clearly see that the evil thoughts turned into black energy and appeared on these believers. These guys were Mari Amahara's most loyal lackeys. Even if Mari Amahara gave a direct order here, asking them to carry bombs and carry out suicide attacks, they would do it. All they needed was Mari Amahara to make a promise like "You will go to the other side of happiness after death" and it would be enough.

"Not good... These people have been instigated by Mari Amahara." Nanajo Masato was trembling a little. He was afraid of what would happen next: "Stop talking, Mr. Inuyama! This is not in our plan, please stop!"

Although Inuyama Jun, who was the first to bear the brunt, could not see the black energy, the pressure he was under was unmatched. The eyes of those fanatics were like those of evil beasts, and they were slowly approaching him. If he let it go like this...

"Am I wrong? Hayafune Katsuhiko!" Inuyama Jun took a step forward and continued to stimulate these crazy believers: "He is a liar. He can't take you to the other side of happiness! That is a huge lie. There is no such place! This statement is simply a pile of shit!"

"Haha, I really said that! Come on!" Inuyama Jun shouted frantically in his heart: "Come at me! As long as I die here! As long as you lose your mind and tear me to pieces, the Hope Cult will commit a crime in public! The founder of the cult, Mari Amahara, will also be arrested, and you will never be able to complete this ritual! For Heita, it's worth it! Yes, for Heita!"

"Mari Amahara, no, Katsuhiko Hayafune, you are a piece of shit! So is your happy other side!" Inuyama Jun was completely crazy: "You are a bunch of idiots who believed this liar! Just like me in the past! You are all scum and garbage!"

"I am a god! I cannot be insulted like this!" At this time, Amahara Mari, who had turned into a giant, was completely enraged. He stretched out his finger and crushed the pagan who offended him: "Go to hell..."

Dozens of crazy believers turned into the power of gods, broke through the blockade of traffic police in front of the convoy, and rushed towards Inuyama Jun. They wanted to tear this guy's stinky mouth apart!
