Tokyo: My Hundred Demon Scroll

Given Gu Yun's current power, the fact that he refrained from punishing him and even helped suppress the power of words shows that he has already exercised great restraint.

"Don't stop me!!"

"What's up with this old man? He's so arrogant!"

Who does he think he is?

"Even the great Lord of Words doesn't dare to speak ill of his lowly master now, how could he dare!"

"..."

Gu Yun tried his best to calm Yan Ling down, thinking to himself that his own chaotic and kind shikigami was just like a landmine that could explode at any moment.

If someone accidentally gets struck by lightning, it could explode in a heartbeat.

This is why Gu Yun always keeps the Word Spirit by his side.

He really wasn't sure.

Who knows if she'll suddenly have a brain fart and cause a cataclysmic event after releasing the Word of Power?

Look at him now, Kotodama's finger has tried to point at Munakata Yoro several times.

The old man had no idea that in just a short time, he had already passed through the gates of hell dozens of times.

"..."

Unlike Munakata Yoro, who was completely oblivious.

In the spirit of the old man, the fate of his grandson beside him was like a seizure, constantly jumping left and right.

Then look at the surging divine light surrounding Gu Yun…

'Has it been targeted by some great god?!'

The old man had experience in this area; he was fortunate enough to hear the voice of the Purification Will.

If he remembers correctly, this level of divine aura is something only that great one can possess.

"So, the divine realm that appeared in Kyoto back then," Old Man Munakata felt a cold sweat soak his back: "was it her?"

And those supreme gods were actually right beside Gu Yun at this moment!

Upon thinking of this, Lao Zong felt a chill run down his spine, and he couldn't help but gasp repeatedly.

He now truly wished he could slap this arrogant bastard to death!

"Mr. Iijima is always available to come over whenever you need to access the documents."

"I'm old and can't move around much."

The implication was that if Gu Yun came to visit, the old patriarch would personally receive him and would not be impolite in any way.

"Thank you so much."

Gu Yun smiled slightly and said respectfully, "Master Munakata is highly respected. I have many questions and would like to ask for your guidance."

Under the bewildered gaze of Munakata Yoro, the old Munakata and Gu Yun walked and talked.

"Walk?!"

Suddenly, Munakata Yoro seemed to realize something.

He stared incredulously at the wheelchair in front of him; the paralyzed old man was no longer there.

Further ahead, the already hunched old man was slowly walking forward with Gu Yun's help.

His movements became more and more powerful, and his energy and spirit were becoming more and more vigorous at a visible speed.

"Miracle!"

Munakata Yoro originally thought that Gu Yun was just a powerful exorcist.

Those who only know how to use brute force are not worthy of the respect of a hermit.

But now, Munakata Yoro realizes he was wrong.

"This boy..."

Munakata Yoro's pupils trembled uncontrollably: "Has he already reached a level that is beyond our comprehension?"

Chapter 281 The Ancestor Almost Died of Anger

Gu Yun ignored what Zong Xiang Yang Lang was thinking; his mind-reading ability didn't receive all kinds of information.

Gu Yun didn't want to pay attention to unimportant people or things.

"I also have something I'd like to ask Mr. Iijima for help with."

The blessing of purification was poured into Lao Zongxiang's body, which greatly restored his physical condition.

The old man knew that this was a gift from the will to purify the world.

With the help of this favorable wind, Lao Zongxiang vaguely felt that the bottleneck that had plagued him for many years was loosening.

This phenomenon deeply moved even the legendary hermit, who was nearly 200 years old.

However, this was not the time to be happy. Old Zong suppressed his joy and continued to talk with Gu Yun about the relevant matters.

"Just call me Gu Yun."

Gu Yun asked, "What does Senior need me to do?"

"It's this child."

Old Munakata patted the head of Munakata Sota, who was standing beside him, and a gentle smile appeared on his face: "The secluded sect has lived in seclusion for many years and has very little contact with the outside world."

The hermit masters travel to various places; their profession dictates that it is difficult for them to stay in one place for an extended period of time.

This also means that their work is not as stable as that of other exorcists.

The Munakata family is one of the few families among those who remain secluded and are willing to integrate into modern society; they have their own identities and life trajectories in the secular world.

The old man hoped that the grass would grow healthily.

If allowed, the old man didn't actually want Sota to inherit the work of the hermit, but rather for him to grow up healthily as an ordinary person.

"The reclusive exorcist is different from other exorcists."

“We have almost no means of dealing with ordinary people.”

Of course, this does not include the legendary reclusive master, Lao Zongxiang.

If he were to turn evil, he could easily open doors connecting to other dimensions, thereby creating 'realms' where the laws of the universe conflict.

On a larger scale, this is equivalent to a small-scale catastrophe, which could potentially trigger a collapse.

Even if the harm is less, all sorts of filth will be blown into the world by the storm, and various geological disasters, natural disasters and man-made calamities will fall like rain.

The thought of such a scene is terrifying.

Therefore, although most of the reclusive masters do not have any real abilities, if they really become bad people, their harm far exceeds that of ordinary demons and monsters.

"The academy built with funds from the Iijima family is so famous in the secular world that even people in our rural village can hear about it in the news."

"Ah, of course, that's no problem!"

Gu Yun knew that the secular life of exorcists was not good; people like the Munakata family were probably no different from ordinary rural residents.

At most, they might have a large courtyard, but their savings would definitely not be much.

Munakata Sota is not from the city; his household registration is in the countryside. If he wants to transfer to a school in a big city like Tokyo, it will cost him a lot of money.

Moreover, the issues of tuition and living expenses are not limited to just one child.

It's important to understand that the hermit clan is changing its tradition of seclusion; the children within the clan will eventually have to enter society and come into contact with more ordinary people.

As the saying goes, it is not scarcity that is a concern, but inequality.

Sota received a good education, but what about the others?

"The college has special admission channels."

Gu Yun explained, "Ordinary students who excel in their studies can receive various subsidies from the college through their outstanding grades."

"Souta's results..."

"But there's also the subsidy from the Yin-Yang Bureau."

Gu Yun smiled and said, "Due to the special nature of exorcists, the Yin-Yang Bureau and the Academy are essentially one entity, and both can support each other."

In other words, your achievements in exorcism studies can also subtly boost your achievements in secular studies.

This kind of thing is a bit like using connections.

But the entire academy belongs to the Iijima family. If they want to favor a certain group, who can say anything?

"In fact, even without this avenue, I will still provide assistance with Sota's matter, as well as the resources and conditions that the entire secluded sect needs in the secular world."

The entire clan of hermit masters, from top to bottom, numbers at most only about a hundred people.

With the Iijima family's vast wealth, arranging jobs, accommodations, employment, and education for over a hundred people is no small matter; it's not something that Gu Yun would personally instruct on.

Even Nao Hayasaka wouldn't personally intervene; instead, she would simply assign a junior executive from the Iijima Group to take care of them perfectly.

"Thank you very much, young friend Gu Yun."

Sensing Gu Yun's financial power, Lao Zong seemed to tacitly stop talking about it.

He knew how terrifying the Iijima Group was.

In Japan, this family, through alliances with multiple forces, has almost unified the Japanese financial sector.

Its position is extremely secure, and no one will be able to shake it for at least several decades.

To put it bluntly.

If you want to survive in Japan, you absolutely cannot afford to offend the Iijima family.

Munakata Yoro actually couldn't quite understand this.

After all, a big shot like Gu Yun is completely different from the playboys in the rumors.

Forget about abusing power for personal gain, this young man is simply too low-key!

"Is there anything else you need, senior?"
