Upon hearing this, the group was taken aback.
A look of surprise immediately appeared on his face.
It's all about loyalty; obeying anyone is the same as obeying someone else.
Even if one loses the status and enjoyment of the past, what is there to be unwilling about if one can only survive?
Several people nodded.
They expressed their willingness to submit and pledged their undying loyalty.
"very good!"
Bai An clapped his hands with satisfaction and said with a big smile:
"Now, within five minutes, go and bring back your former family head and young master."
"Sir, he's been on the run for so long, five minutes wouldn't be enough...?"
"Don't worry, your patriarch is currently in the room where you store your talismans."
Bai An explained with a smile.
The guy was frantically rummaging through the boxes in the room.
But they had already looted all the talismans inside, so how could they possibly find them again?
"We'll go over there right away!"
The group exchanged glances and quickly headed to the room where the talismans were hidden.
Although they didn't know how the other party found out, their main priority now was to follow orders.
After they left, Kazami Yuuka looked at Bai An and asked in confusion:
"What do you need them to do? What plans are they developing?"
"Plan? What can they do for us with their strength? I just want them to help me collect items like talismans."
Bai An paused for a moment, then explained.
He simply hoped that these few people could collect the unique and interesting items of this era.
He buried them underground, and when he returned to his original timeline, he could go to the location where they had buried them and dig them all up.
Upon hearing Bai An's explanation, Kazami Yuuka's lips twitched a few times.
She should have realized it sooner; given his personality, how could he possibly have any ulterior motives?
This is just pure boredom!
"My lords, we have brought the person back."
The leading Onmyoji threw the half-dead patriarch and Mikawa Tanaka to the ground, then respectfully stepped aside.
The other two remained standing.
It lowered its head timidly, looking obedient, and dared not move.
"I thought you would take the opportunity to run away."
Bai An glanced at them with a half-smile and said casually, but his eyes sent chills down their spines.
"How could that be? Since we have already decided to follow you, sir, we will never go back on our word."
The three of them tensed up and quickly waved their hands to explain, afraid that the other party would misunderstand that they wanted to run away.
They did indeed have the idea of running away.
Such a long distance.
As long as they escape and blend into the crowd.
Even if a top-ranking Onmyoji were to arrive, they might not be able to capture them.
However, they were stopped by the leading Onmyoji before they could carry it out.
"Thank goodness you didn't, otherwise...?"
Bai An stopped speaking, and then, amidst their puzzled gazes, opened a slit.
The next instant, several green jade pendants appeared in Bai An's hand.
Looking at those familiar jade pendants.
The three men's pupils suddenly contracted, and they hurriedly checked their waists, only to find that the jade pendant they carried close to their bodies had disappeared.
“I have the ability to mark you, so no matter where you run or how far you go, I can find you or kill you at any time.”
Bai An spoke slowly.
His tone was calm and even, but to the three of them it sounded like the pronouncement of death.
Thankfully, they didn't resist at the time, otherwise they probably would be...
Thinking of this, the three of them felt a chill run down their spines, their hearts pounding.
His forehead was covered in a fine sheen of sweat, and his face was pale.
If they had chosen to run away back then, what they would have lost now wouldn't be the jade pendant, but their heads.
The feeling of brushing past death made their legs go weak, and they collapsed to the ground.
Bai An ignored them and turned to look at the two half-dead men on the ground.
"Impossible, impossible! Where did all the talismans I've been hoarding go???"
The middle-aged man kept chanting as if possessed.
At this moment, he was covered in wounds and tattered clothes, lying on the ground like a beggar.
Blood was dripping from the corner of his mouth, clearly the result of severe torture.
Although Mikawa Tanaka was unconscious, he was still conscious.
Feeling Bai An's gaze fall on him, he struggled to open his eyes, only to see a face that terrified him.
"Ah! Don't kill me, don't kill me! You killed my father, he made me do it."
Mikawa Tanaka was terrified.
The fear of death drove him to struggle to his feet like a madman.
She knelt on the ground, hugging Bai An's feet and pleading incessantly.
Bai An frowned and kicked him away.
The middle-aged man watched as his son shifted all the blame onto him, his heart breaking as if being torn apart. The light in his eyes faded, and he seemed to have aged ten years.
He couldn't believe it; he had protected his son for so long.
To choose death in order to live.
Mikawa Tanaka was completely unaware of his father's unusual expression, but even if he had noticed, he wouldn't have cared.
He's willing to do anything as long as he can live.
"Please let me go, I'll never dare to oppose you again, please spare me."
Mikawa Tanaka pleaded desperately, tears streaming down his face, completely abandoning his previous arrogant and domineering demeanor.
Just as he was about to crawl over again and grab Bai An's feet to beg for mercy.
Kazami Yuuka could no longer hold back, her scarlet eyes filled with disgust.
"Don't touch Bai An!"
As she spoke, she suddenly kicked Mikawa Tanaka.
He was kicked away until he crashed into the wall, where he screamed in pain and lost consciousness.
Seeing Youxiang pouting and looking unhappy, Bai An's eyes lit up. He took out his camera and snapped two photos.
Kazami Yuuka glared at him angrily.
Why are you taking pictures of me!
"Because my house is so lovely, I thought it wouldn't be enough to just keep it as a memento."
As Bai An spoke, she flipped through the photos, liking them more and more with each look.
This appearance will not be seen again a thousand years from now.
"Stop telling me I'm cute, I don't like it."
Kazami Yuuka pouted, somewhat dissatisfied, but the next second her face was grabbed by Bai An and pulled hard.
"Ugh—what are you doing!"
Because her face was being pinched, her voice was muffled, but the angry flames flashing in her eyes were very clear.
"It's all because you're too cute, how can you blame me?"
Bai An smiled contentedly, loosened his fingers, and looked at Youxiang's swollen cheeks with a happy mood.
Unexpectedly, Yuuka at this time also had the tsundere attribute of saying one thing but meaning another.
He clearly likes her, but he says the opposite of what he means.
"You just wait, I'll definitely get my revenge later!"
Kazami Yuuka rubbed her cheek, which had been pinched so hard, and huffed and puffed, wishing she could bite him.
If she weren't outmatched, she would have already pinned this guy down on the blanket and rubbed him against it.
How could she allow him to bully her like this?
It's so abominable.
I always bully myself.
Bai An stopped teasing her and went to the side of the middle-aged man who looked utterly despondent.
He took a talisman out of his backpack and gently placed it in his palm.
"This is the talisman you've been looking for, isn't it?"
