Tokyo: My Hundred Demon Scroll

For some reason, Suzuka Gozen seemed somewhat disappointed.

After all, being able to obtain the first blood of Gu Yun is the glory of the shikigami, something they can boast about for a lifetime, the kind of glory that makes them feel no regret even in death.

Upon hearing this order, Suzuka felt a little nervous, but more than that, she was filled with anticipation and excitement.

Suzuka Gozen admits that she is a brother-complex.

Gu Yun, with his younger brother attributes, exudes a charming aura, coupled with his close relationship with the Lord of Spirits.

All of this combined means that if Gu Yun only had Suzuka as his shikigami, the Queen of Suzuka Mountain would probably launch a night raid on him on the day he came of age, achieving the ultimate feat of overthrowing her superior.

In short, as long as Gu Yun doesn't refuse, Suzuka is completely willing to go all out.

Because Gu Yun is the master, his will is something Suzuka cannot resist. If he has even the slightest thought of resistance, Suzuka's night raid will not succeed.

But what if Gu Yun doesn't resist...

Suzuka: Lie down quietly, and your big sister will take you to open the door to a new world!

"..."

Listening to Suzuka Gozen's inner thoughts, Gu Yun suddenly felt a sense of danger: 'In a few years, will they really launch a night attack on me?'

"Cough cough!"

Gu Yun interrupted Suzuka's rambling thoughts and then focused his attention on the imprisoned Katen.

What should we do about her?

Gu Yun stepped forward, with Suzuka closely following beside him, protecting him on both sides.

"Please don't take her life."

The voice of the will of the illusory world rang in Gu Yun's ears, and the words of power also flew to Gu Yun's side at this moment: "Although I hate her, the twelve heavens are connected by the same breath. If you understand her, it will be difficult to explain to the other guardians of the heavens."

"It doesn't matter."

Huo Tian's weak voice came through. She raised her head and looked at Gu Yun: "A life for a life. If one of the Twelve Heavens dies, we can just find another Twelve Heavens to make up for it."

"Ok?"

Gu Yun hadn't expected Huo Tian to be so determined to die, as he was still offering them advice.

"Hey?"

Word Spirit: "What she said seems to make sense."

“If we kill her, it means that the other world has lost its guardian,” the Word Spirit said. “But Sister Suzuka can take over the responsibility of guarding the other world and fill this vacancy.”

The guardians of the heavens are the top fighters in every dimension.

Suzuka replaced Katen as the new Twelve Heavens. She no longer needs to stay in the Otherworld; she only needs to intervene when problems arise there.

Furthermore, Gu Yun could exploit loopholes in the rules to allow Suzuka to register her name in the afterlife, and then send out other shikigami to help protect the afterlife.

As long as Gu Yun can guarantee the stability of the other world, the other twelve heavens will have no excuse to accuse Gu Yun of killing Huo Tian.

Chapter 236 Deserve a beating

"I see."

Gu Yun didn't make a move against Huo Tian; he was now more interested in knowing what Huo Tian's purpose was in doing all this.

He reassured Yanling that he knew what he was doing.

Why did you attack me?

"Ok!"

As soon as Gu Yun finished speaking, the spirit beside him released four chains of incantations, which bound Huo Tian's limbs and forcibly dragged him into the air.

With two katanas piercing through his flesh and blood, and treated so brutally, Huo Tian frowned but remained silent.

"Yan Ling?"

“Let her suffer a bit,” the Word of Power said, “so that it will make interrogation easier.”

"..."

Gu Yun shook his head helplessly and said to Huo Tian, ​​"Yan Ling's actions were a bit rough, I apologize to you."

"However, since you have chosen to be my enemy, then you are my enemy."

There's no need to show mercy to enemies; if Huo Tian weren't the Twelve Heavens, she would already be dead.

"very nice."

Huo Tian looked weakly at Gu Yun: "But it's not enough."

"what?"

"You should kill me."

Huo Tian said, "I am the source of calamity, the beginning of misfortune in this world, the witch of calamity."

“I was supposed to be immortal and indestructible, and even the gods could not destroy me.”

It was precisely because she was unkillable that Pandora was imprisoned by the Greek gods, who used eternal confinement to prevent her from harming the world.

But you are different!

Huo Tian said excitedly, "A person with perfect spiritual rank, your every word and action represents the highest will."

Others may not be able to kill Huo Tian, ​​but Gu Yun certainly can.

Just like when Gu Yun cut off Yu Yao's fox tail a few years ago, the latter turned out to be a blessing in disguise and evolved into the legendary Sky Fox.

This is Gu Yun's will, derived from the absoluteness of Manlingge.

"When you kill me, all the calamities in the world will be quelled."

“The world will be at peace,” Huo Tian said. “Though not forever, there will be no major disasters for at least a hundred years.”

In more scientific terms, this means that the world's happiness index will rise sharply within a century, humanity will usher in a golden age, and demons will find their own way out.

All people and all living beings will be blessed by the death of the fire god.

"Is there something wrong with your brain?"

Gu Yun couldn't understand Huo Tian's thought process; it seemed that this guy had come with the intention of being killed by Gu Yun from the very beginning.

Releasing death row inmates from hell is a stain that cannot be washed away; Huo Tian's mistake is a mistake.

The rest, sensing Gu Yun's presence, immediately came from Hell to fight him.

Huo Tian had two objectives: one was to test Gu Yun's strength and the authenticity of his identity, and the other was to seek liberation, hoping that Gu Yun could eliminate him.

"A saintess...?"

"What a foolish woman to sacrifice herself for others."

Suzuka Gozen muttered to herself, then said, "I don't recommend that you, Tanigumo, take action against her. It won't do us any good at all."

From a perspective of benefit, killing the fire god can bring blessings to all people.

Why would Guyun do such a thing?

The world has its own development and should not be interfered with by humans, especially not by such a large-scale operation.

Gu Yun asked himself if he had any ambition to treat all living beings as pawns.

Killing the fire is equivalent to pressing the nuclear button.

Moreover, who can guarantee that killing Huo Tian and letting misfortune and negative energy settle down will necessarily be a good thing?

What if this is Huo Tian's conspiracy?

She ushered in an even worse era with her death. What should be done?

"Are you kidding me?"

Gu Yun: "Are you saying this on purpose to make me hesitate and not dare to lay a hand on you?"

But upon closer reflection, Gu Yun felt something was amiss.

Huo Tian had no privacy whatsoever in front of him regarding his inner thoughts and current emotions; whether they were true or not, he could see it all at a glance.

“This is my mission.”

Huo Tian's eyes revealed a hint of loneliness, but more so a sense of relief: "I was created to be a vessel of misfortune. Even after becoming one of the Twelve Heavens, I have lived a muddled life for hundreds of years."

"Then why did you release the evil seed from hell?!"

"Do you know how much trouble this will cause in other worlds?"

Gu Yun didn't care about anything else.

This is the only thing that makes Huo Tian so willful.

Good and evil are one and the same, yet they are mutually opposed.

"To kill one person is murder; to slaughter ten thousand is heroism."

In Huo Tian's view, the line between heroes and criminals is very blurry: "How can you be so sure that a demon like Kibutsuji Muzan cannot save the world?"

"..."

To be honest, although Huo Tian's words are fallacious, there is indeed a possibility of them.

"I will send them all back! Back to hell!"

Gu Yun didn't want to fight with Huo Tian. Anyway, he would take action and send those who deserved to go to hell to hell.

He didn't mind interfering with the cycle of reincarnation, using the privilege of the Word of Power to make clear arrangements for someone as sinful as Muzan Kibutsuji.

"Are you preparing to be a savior?"

Upon hearing Gu Yun's answer, Huo Tian was not disappointed at all; on the contrary, he was overjoyed.

This was Huo Tian's original plan.

Some of the escaped death row inmates will surely bring calamity to the world.

If Gu Yun goes to deal with them, then his idea of ​​living a secluded life and going about his ordinary days will be completely impossible.

The final result will inevitably be that Gu Yun will become more and more entangled until he comes into contact with Hiruko-shin and fulfills his twelve-day wish.
