Tokyo: My Hundred Demon Scroll

Old Tengu knew he had lost, and lost miserably: "Is this the strength of the Shangluo Clan? How could someone like you submit to someone?"

"Who exactly is the leader of the Shangluo people...?"

However, before he could finish speaking, Old Tengu felt a sudden dizziness and collapsed to the ground, unconscious.

"I'll take him to see the lord first."

White Wolf casually picked up Old Tengu's clothes and lifted him up: "Senior Inugami, is it alright to leave this place to you?"

"Oh!"

Inugami laughed as he repelled Kidomaru, who had already unleashed the ultimate speed sword technique: "Go ahead."

"Even the myriad phenomena of nature cannot withstand her single arrow?"

In a brief exchange with Inugami, Kidomaru was slashed several times.

At this moment, he was dressed in rags and covered in blood.

The ghost Ibaraki and ghost Hakuzosu, who originally fought alongside him, have now been cut down by Inugami and are in a coma.

A mid-ranking yokai is far too weak to challenge a special-rank Inugami in its awakened state.

Kidomaru could barely match Inugami thanks to his lightning-fast swordsmanship.

The other demons were instantly discovered by Inugami, who found their weaknesses and killed them with a single strike.

Fortunately, the Inugami showed mercy, otherwise the ghost Ibaraki and the ghost Hakuzosu would not have been unconscious.

"My sister is missing!!"

Suddenly, Kyokotsu's voice came from behind Kidomaru.

"what?!"

Kidomaru turned around in horror and saw Kyokotsu and Seiryugu standing there, but the figure of Hagoromo Gitsune, whom they were supposed to protect, was nowhere to be seen.

"Damn it!"

The demon leader flew into a rage, his face turning a deep crimson: "You despicable bastards, where exactly did you take Lady Hagoromo Gitsune?!"

"Boom~~"

A surge of killing intent erupted from Kidomaru's body. He no longer held back, and his demonic power, approaching that of a special-grade demon, was released instantly.

【All Demons Submit to the Ghost of Luo City Gate】

A massive city gate, resembling an ink painting, rose from beneath Kidomaru's feet. The old man, standing on the eaves, plunged his blade into it with a mighty roar: "Sword and Halberd - Boundless!"

"Give me back Lord Hagoromo Gitsune!!!"

The next moment, under Kidomaru's fury, endless blades surged out from the gate of Rashomon.

Their speed was fast enough to shatter space itself; even the Inugami felt he had no way to dodge and could only forcefully resist with his own Ten Thousand Demons.

"Haha, that's more like it!"

Inugami knew that Kidomaru had not yet mastered the domain, so he used only Banma to fight against the opponent's Banma.

[All Demons Share the Server - Wind, Forest, Fire, and Mountain]

That's it, that's the thrill of fighting on a battlefield.

The Shiba Inu head of the Inugami couldn't help but grin: "Impressive swordsmanship, keep going!!"

"Boom~~"

Earth-shattering demonic power collided and impacted here, followed by a continuous clash between the two figures.

"Um"

However, in a brightly lit room, Hagoromo Gitsune opened her eyes from her drowsy state.

"where is this place?"

"Why...?"

The woman in this life that Hagoromo Gitsune possesses is a noble lady from a prominent family.

Wearing a gorgeous single garment, her long, straight black hair cascaded down her body like a waterfall due to her kneeling posture, making her look like a celestial maiden descended to earth, incomparably beautiful.

"Ok?"

Suddenly, Hagoromo Gitsune looked up and saw a figure curiously observing her.

The other party was extremely young, no more than thirteen or fourteen years old.

He was wearing a bathrobe, and there was a low table in front of him with an inkstone and a brush on it, as if he were practicing calligraphy.

"Yo!"

Seeing that she had regained consciousness, the boy even raised his hand warmly and greeted her: "You're awake, Hagoromo Gitsune."

"who are you?"

Yu Yi Hu couldn't see through Gu Yun, and even with her demonic powers, she couldn't sense anything at all.

'How can it be! ’

Not only was there no depth, but there was also no trace of its presence or even any hint of its existence.

If she hadn't seen Gu Yun there with her own eyes, Yu Yi Hu would have thought that there was nothing in front of her at all.

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Iijima Tanigumo. I am a human and the leader of the Upper Kyoto Clan."

"..."

Gu Yun's words left Yu Yi Tsuru stunned, and it took her a long time to recover: "What did you say? You are, a human?!"

Hagoromo Gitsune thought she had misheard.

She had made various guesses about the leader of the Shangluo people.

But I never expected that the other party would be a human.

"This is impossible!"

Yu Yi Hu suddenly stood up. She couldn't see through Gu Yun, but with her level of strength, she could clearly feel the gap between them.

'Will I die?'

At this very moment, Hagoromo Gitsune's body and soul were frantically warning her.

absolute!

We must never make an enemy of the boy in front of us!

Otherwise, she would definitely die…

"See, I didn't lie to you."

“Me,” Gu Yun said, “I’m super strong.”

Gu Yun knew that Yu Yi Tsuru was very strong, and someone of that strength should be able to sense that he was different from others.

He didn't have much ill will towards Hagoromo Gitsune. From a mother's perspective, her maternal love for Kuro Seimei was admirable.

After all, would anyone be willing to reincarnate repeatedly just to give birth to their child again, because of their child's request?

“So let’s have a good chat,” Gu Yun said. “And tell me what price you’re willing to pay to have the confidence to cooperate with me.”

Direct, decisive, and to the point.

Gu Yun disliked beating around the bush; he had had enough of the red tape in the human world.

Therefore, in the realm of demons, Gu Yun only wanted to solve problems decisively and efficiently.

"Are you really the leader of the Shangluo people?"

"It is absolutely true."

"Is it human?"

"Replacement guaranteed."

"..."

Another silence fell as Hagoromo Gitsune forced herself to accept the truth.

Because with Gu Yun's strength, there was no need for him to deceive her.

Moreover, Hagoromo Gitsune could sense Gu Yun's attitude. The young man in front of her was not the kind of person who liked to hide his identity. The only reason he would tell her his identity was not because of recognition or anything else.

The reason for doing this is simply...

'You're very weak.'

Although Gu Yun didn't say it aloud, his behavior just now was undoubtedly what Yu Yi Hun wanted to express.

I am neither qualified nor worthy to be his enemy!

"As you requested, the Thousand Demons Parade has arrived at the location you designated to meet you."

Hagoromo Gitsune lowered her voice: "But we've come, and you've first angered my subordinates, and then imprisoned me here alone. Is this how the people of Kyoto treat their guests?"

"I do not recall offending the people of Shangluo. This visit is a friendly one."

"Could it be that you have a deity standing behind you, and that you consider me a heretic, so you resort to such methods to exorcise us?"

Having said all this, Hagoromo Gitsune felt much of her resentment released.

She is now imprisoned, and Gu Yun can seal her away or even kill her at any time.

Hagoromo Gitsune did indeed feel some regret about this.

But more than anything, it's a relief.

As long as she lives, she will protect Kuro Seimei and fulfill his wish to be resurrected; this is her responsibility and duty as a mother.

However, if someone dies, there's nothing that can be done, isn't there?

She has done her best.

I will keep striving until the moment my soul is scattered and I cease to exist.

If anyone's to blame, it's her for making the wrong judgment; she's a useless, stupid woman and an incompetent mother...

"That Kuro Seimei guy, he's really lucky."
