"That creature that chased you and threw snowballs last time? I remember it just threw snowballs, it didn't do any damage, right?"

Reimu didn't care. Anyway, this thing wouldn't pose any danger, and even if she didn't deal with it, someone else would.

If that's the case, then just leave it to someone else; why leave your cozy little house?

"But they've started attacking indiscriminately, and now many of them are heading this way!"

Marisa panicked and tugged at Reimu, making her look towards the door: "Look outside, there are so many!"

Reimu looked in the direction Marisa was pointing, and sure enough, it was so.

She frowned slightly, sat up from the bed, and went to the door amidst Marisa's surprised gaze.

Outside the door, there were countless snowmen made of snow and pumpkin heads.

This appearance looks somewhat familiar.

After observing carefully, Reimu decisively closed the door and lazily returned to the tatami mat to continue sleeping.

"Reimu, why did you close the door? Weren't you going out to deal with them?"

Marisa stared blankly at the closed door. She had already warmed up the Eight Trigrams Furnace, ready for a big battle, so why did the door suddenly close and come back?

“If we close the door, they won’t be able to get in. Besides, this is obviously the work of a rich man. You want me, a witch, to fight my own god? You must be joking. I’ll choose to turn a blind eye.”

Reimu rolled her eyes, turned over, hugged her pillow, closed her eyes, and continued to sleep. Her head was still groggy from just waking up.

She should just get some sleep. Attacking her own god of wealth is suicidal. She'd better behave herself. If her allowance is cut off, she'll have nowhere to turn.

Marisa was dumbfounded as she watched Reimu drift back to sleep. She blinked, and after a long while, gave up on waking her up.

Based on her experience, it's best not to wake Reimu in situations like this.

Otherwise, you'll get smeared in the face with Yin-Yang Jade.

Thinking of this, Marisa silently left the shrine, intending to deal with the incident herself. However, the moment she pushed open the door, she froze at the sight before her. Reimu's most treasured vegetable garden had been trampled flat by the snow golem.

You should know that Reimu usually cherishes this vegetable garden very much, and she would like to put a talisman on every single vegetable to prevent it from being damaged.

But now....

Marisa looked at the mess outside, then at Reimu who was sleeping soundly. She swallowed hard and asked tentatively.

"Reimu, are you really not going to do anything about them?"

Reimu opened her eyes and glanced at her sideways: "They're not going inside, why should I care?"

Seeing her seemingly indifferent expression, Marisa became even more conflicted. After hesitating for a long time, she tentatively spoke:

"Reimu, all the vegetables you planted have died."

Reimu paused, seemingly processing her words.

“Those snowmen outside are trampling your vegetable garden like crazy.”

The moment she finished speaking, Reimu vanished from her spot, and the next second, Marisa felt a gust of wind beside her.

By the time she realized what was happening, Reimu had already appeared on the vegetable garden outside the shrine. The snowmen in that area had crumbled into pieces and collapsed, leaving only some snowballs still drifting in the air.

Reimu's hands trembled as she picked up a cabbage leaf and placed it in her palm. The frozen leaf shattered along with her heart. This was something she had carefully cultivated, and now it was all destroyed.

"Reimu, so, have you decided to stop them? We can't turn a blind eye to this anymore, can we?"

Marisa rushed over excitedly, took out the small flame of the Eight Trigrams Furnace from her bosom, and it flickered. She couldn't wait to go into battle.

"This is no longer a matter of turning a blind eye!"

Reimu braced herself on the ground with both hands, leaving two wide lines of tears.

"Since we can't tolerate it, let's go now..."

"I choose to close both eyes."

Reimu clutched her heart, uttered these words with grief and indignation, then turned and flew towards the shrine, leaving Marisa completely bewildered.

........

Meanwhile, at the Yakumo residence...

The stunningly beautiful fox spirit girl hummed a cheerful tune as she returned to her room. She placed the fried tofu on the table, sat down on a stool, deftly picked up a piece of tofu, and popped it into her mouth, eating it with relish.

The alluring fox ears twitched along with the food, as if enjoying the pleasure it brought.

After eating two pieces of tofu, Yakumo Ran stopped using her chopsticks, licked her lips, and looked intoxicated.

"As expected of Lord Bai's fried tofu, after a hard day's work, having a few pieces is pure bliss."

Just as she was about to continue enjoying herself, the door was suddenly pushed open with a bang, startling Yakumo Ran.

The next moment, a purple figure rushed in.

"Lord Zi, is there anything I can help you with?"

Yakumo Ran asked cautiously, while simultaneously pulling the fried tofu closer to her chest.

"Blue, something terrible has happened! Our Yakumo Residence has been attacked!"

"What?"

Ran Yakumo was stunned, her eyes widening in disbelief.

"Lord Murasaki, did you forget to take your medicine today? Is someone going to attack our Yakumo residence?"

"Pah, pah, pah, I'm not sick, why would I need medicine?"

Yukari Yakumo complained, then said with a sad expression.

"Lan, don't you believe me?"

"It's not that I don't trust you, Lord Zi, it's just that this matter is truly unbelievable."

"We're not lying to you. Go out and see for yourself."

"Ok?"

Seeing her mistress's confident expression, she walked out of the room in confusion. When she came outside, she stood there blankly.

At this moment, the entire Yakumo residence had been invaded by snowmen of all sizes, and the courtyard she had just cleaned was now a mess.

The flowers, grass, and trees on the ground were trampled to a pulp, and even the soil was covered with a thick layer of snow, making the entire courtyard a vast expanse of white.

However, before she could feel sad, the snowmen spotted her and all rushed over.

"Huffing and puffing—"

Countless snowballs came hurtling towards her. Yakumo Ran instinctively raised her hand to block them, but she quickly realized that these snowballs were harmless. However, to her surprise, the snowballs had a slowing effect.

Simply being hit or touched will cause a slowing effect, and it seems to be unaffected by the strength of the attacker.

In other words, regardless of strength, the attribute effects applied at the moment of being hit are exactly the same.

Of course, given the strength of these snowmen, it's just a matter of waving a hand at Yakumo Ran. Even if she can't dodge these snowballs, she has countless ways to defend against them.

Suddenly, Yakumo Ran's figure flashed, the surrounding space distorted, and the next instant, countless sonic booms roared at the same time, followed by all the snowmen exploding into a sky full of snow mist.

She patted the snow off her tail and turned to leave when suddenly a huge block of ice came hurtling towards her from a distance. She paused for a moment and slightly turned to avoid it.

The ice cube crashed to the ground with a loud thud, shattering into pieces.

"roar--!"

A deep roar came from behind her. She raised an eyebrow and turned around to see a snowman, three meters tall and shrouded in cold air, slowly approaching her.

Its limbs were very thick and long, like a gorilla's, with its two hands supporting it on the ground, and wisps of white steam coming out of its nostrils.

After examining it closely, Yakumo Ran noticed that the creature in front of her looked somewhat similar to the iron golems patrolling the House of Freedom.

Was this strange event caused by Lord Bai?

She stroked her chin thoughtfully, pondering whether or not to deal with the anomaly.

Of course, the conclusion was quickly reached: putting aside whether she could win or not, how could she possibly deal with the god of fried tofu, Lord Bai?

I'd better stay at the Yakumo residence and eat her fried tofu; let others handle the anomaly.

After thinking it through, she planned to go back inside, but she had only taken half a step when...

The snowman first threw a block of ice, then suddenly pounced.

Yakumo Ran narrowed her eyes slightly, shifted her body to avoid the ice block that was thrown at her and the opponent's fist, and at the same time kicked out with her left foot, hitting the snowman in the stomach.

The snowman flew backwards for more than ten meters before crashing heavily to the ground, kicking up a flurry of snowflakes.

The force was so great that his waist was almost severed in two, and he couldn't get up for a while.

However, it only took a moment to get up from the snow again, shake its neck and head, and its broken body was restored to its original state, and the parts that had been attacked were noticeably thicker.

Can it evolve based on attacks?

Ran Yakumo was slightly surprised. Not only did it have a slowing effect that ignored strength, but it could also regenerate quickly and evolve its body according to the attacks.

Its abilities seem somewhat extraordinary, but considering that it's a product of Lord Bai, it doesn't seem so strange.

After all, Lord Bai was the most outrageous person she had ever seen.

The giant snowman charged forward again, now wielding two massive swords, their surfaces shimmering with purple light, clearly enchanted.

The attack was faster than before, but it was still easily blocked by Yakumo Ran, who didn't even move an inch from her spot.

The nine tails were enough to easily suppress this huge creature, even when the snowman in front of it grew to five times its original size, it was still of no use.

Five minutes later—

"Alright, game over. Let's go back and eat some fried tofu!"

Yakumo Ran shook off the ice shards on her tail, narrowed her eyes, stretched her nine-tailed tail in front of her, and flicked it lightly with her slender fingers.

"call out--!"

A streak of red light flashed through the air and pierced straight into the snowman's chest.

The next second, the snowman's pierced chest suddenly burst into flames, the raging fire spreading to every inch of its body, devouring it in the blink of an eye, leaving behind a pool of snow water.

The difference in strength between the two sides was too great, and this battle was a foregone conclusion. As for why Yakumo Ran fought for so long...

Of course, it's a matter of social etiquette. After all, it's Lord Bai's masterpiece, so we should at least show some respect and go easy on him a little.

After finishing all that, Yakumo Ran returned to the house, intending to continue enjoying the fried tofu, but the moment she returned to her room, she froze.
