Tokyo: My Hundred Demon Scroll

Soon, the two met in Gu Yun's study.

This was the second time Nura Rihan had met Tanigumo; unlike their previous chance encounter, this was now a formal visit.

"This is a specialty of the Half-Demon Village. Please accept it."

Kurotabo knelt beside Rihan, placed the gift on the table, and pushed it towards him.

"I apologize for my rudeness earlier."

Gu Yun asked Xiao You to take the gift and put it away: "But doing business is all about integrity. Since we have already reached an agreement with the Thousand Ghosts Parade, we cannot break the agreement at will. I think Mr. Rihan can understand that, right?"

"It is precisely because I understand that I came here in such a hurry, wanting to understand your meaning more clearly."

"Please say."

Gu Yun asked Nurarihyon for an explanation.

"You don't intend to be an enemy of Hagoromo Gitsune, nor do you want to be an enemy of the Nura Clan. Is that what you mean?"

Nura Rihan used very polite words and his tone was very appropriate, showing as much respect as possible to Tanigumo.

"Correct."

Gu Yun said, "To be precise, I want to cooperate with both Hagoromo Gitsune and the Nura Clan."

"Forgive my bluntness," Nura Rihan said, "the Nura Clan's strength is now even greater than that of the yokai in Kyoto. What they can do, the Nura Clan can do as well."

This means they hope Gu Yun will abandon Yu Yi Hu and cooperate with them instead.

Of course, if Gu Yun feels it's wrong to breach the contract so quickly, then they can wait.

After three to five years, Gu Yun will choose a new partner.

This is perfectly reasonable, isn't it?

"Beep, beep."

Gu Yun placed her hand on the table and tapped it lightly with her fingertips: "The more the better."

"Ok?"

Rihan Nura frowned slightly, but quickly relaxed: "Are you saying that one side alone doesn't have enough people, and the more people from both sides combined, the better?"

The strength of the Shangluo Clan was so great that they could crush everything.

The hatred between Hagoromo Gitsune and Nurarihyon is not something that Gu Yun can resolve with just a few words.

Whenever the Nura Clan wants to deal with the Thousand Demon Night Parade, Tanigumo will become an insurmountable obstacle for them.

It's fair to say that without resolving the major problem of Gu Yun, the Nura Clan will never be able to wage war against Hagoromo Gitsune.

"Where does the contradiction lie?"

Gu Yun smiled and said, "Rather than rambling on here, I prefer to bring the issues up and discuss them openly."

"To put it simply," Gu Yun said, "name your price."

"???"

Nura Rihan didn't expect Tanigumo to be so direct.

He really wanted to say, "You have no idea about the feud between Nurarihyon and Hagoromo Gitsune."

However, considering Gu Yun's strength

The second generation leader ultimately chose to follow his heart and remain silent.

“The behavior of the demons in Kyoto needs to be restrained. I share the same view as Mr. Rihan on this point,” Gu Yun said. “I only protect those demons who live peacefully. As for those who disrupt order and act recklessly, you can kill them, and I will not interfere.”

Even if Gu Yun cooperates with Yu Yi Hu, he can't become a protector for those scumbags.

Otherwise, wouldn't he become an accomplice?

When trading with Hagoromo Gitsune, Gu Yun had already considered the subsequent problems, and Nurarihyon and the Nura Clan were obviously a good environment for making mistakes.

"If that were really the case, then the conflict between the Nura Clan and the demons of Kyoto would no longer exist."

"The Nura Clan," Gu Yun chuckled, "are they with the demons of Kyoto?"

Clearly, Nura Rihan was referring to the demons of Kyoto, but Hagoromo Gitsune was not among them.

The feud between Hagoromo Gitsune and them is a personal matter and does not involve any greater principles.

In fact, if Hagoromo Gitsune truly admitted her mistake, given the magnanimity of the Nura father and son, they would likely forgive her.

But how could Hagoromo Gitsune possibly recognize that?

Before being attacked by Kuro Seimei, she was an unwavering supporter of Touhou Project.

“So, I will give you one,” Gu Yun smiled, “a condition you cannot refuse.”

"..."

Nura Rihan was somewhat disdainful.

He is the lord of all demons and monsters in Kanto, the second head of the Nura Clan. He has seen all kinds of storms and waves. How could he be bought off by a little bit of benefit?

“I will use my magic to resurrect your wife and bring her back from the underworld to the world of the living.”

"!!!"

At that moment, Nura Rihan was stunned: "You, are you kidding me? Even if it's a resurrection technique, it's not a true resurrection."

"Of course it won't be an ordinary resurrection spell!"

Rihan's wife, Yamabuki Otome, is not human, but a yokai (supernatural being) transformed from a ghost.

After she died, her soul fell into hell.

Generally speaking, to resurrect a dead person, one must make a deal with the rules of the underworld in order to bring them back.

However, since Yamabuki Otome is not human, Tanigumo does not need to use the highly difficult forbidden technique 'Taishan Fujun Festival'.

Miketsu has a good relationship with the will of the underworld.

It's just a matter of asking it for a soul, finding a loophole, and saying a few words.

"Without side effects, it revives Mr. Rihan's wife."

"I don't know if this condition will satisfy you," Gu Yun asked.

"I…"

Rihan wanted to refuse, but he truly missed his deceased wife, to the point that he wanted to go down and be with her: "Is this really something I can do?"

"Otome."

Rihan Nura's voice trembled slightly: "He has already fallen into hell."

"It doesn't matter. It makes no difference to me where she is."

"Even so."

Rihan Nura really wanted to see his wife again, but it was no use: "Even if Otome is resurrected, it won't change anything."

Yamabuki Otome is Nura Rihan's true love.

He is definitely a good man, as he has not yet remarried to Wakana.

Because of Hagoromo Gitsune's curse, Nurarihyon is unable to have children with yokai.

The mountain flowers bloom in seven or eight layers, yet pitifully, not a single seed is borne.

Feeling guilty for not being able to bear children for her husband, Yamabuki Otome left him after accompanying Rihan for hundreds of years.

She understood Riban's love for her.

As long as she is still alive, Rihan will never choose another woman.

In this way, the Nurarihyon bloodline can no longer be passed down.

Even if Yamabuki Otome is resurrected, the two cannot be together to have children, so she will still be depressed, blame herself, and feel guilty.

"So, the deal isn't over yet."

Gu Yun continued, "I will help Nurarihyon break the curse of Hagoromo Gitsune."

"Hey?"

Rihan Nura was completely stunned, speechless for a long time: "You, you can even do this?"

He thought he had overestimated Gu Yun.

The series of shocks once again overturned Nura Rihan's understanding of Tanigumo's strength.

"Curses are troublesome, but Mr. Rihan should know that there are some people in this world who are the nemesis of curses."

"God?!"

Nura Rihan thought of Mikoto, who was by Tanigumo's side.

As one of Japan's top deities, is it really that difficult for her to break the curse of a fox spirit?

"Resurrect Yamabuki Otome and lift Hagoromo Gitsune's curse."

Gu Yun: "With these two conditions, I wonder if it would be possible for Mr. Rihan and Hagoromo Gitsune to turn hostility into friendship?"

"Of course, if the Nura Clan chooses to reconcile, Hagoromo Gitsune or Senki Yagyō will still choose to take action."

“Then at that time,” Gu Yun’s voice grew even colder, “it will be because they don’t give me face!”

You don't give me, Gu Yun, any face.

Gu Yun: You think you're so great? I'm trying to talk to you nicely, but you don't appreciate it. Do you expect me to hit you?

"."

Seeing this, what could Nura Rihan say?

It's so delicious!

"If this is the case."

Rihan Nura's lips twitched slightly: "Then I have no reason to refuse these conditions."

Gu Yun made a deal with Hagoromo Gitsune and also wanted to be friends with Nurarihyon.

On one hand, it's about forging a good relationship; on the other hand, it's also part of Gu Yun's previous grand plan to subdue the demons of Kyoto and Kanto and enrich their Gensokyo.
