Tokyo Sword Saint Online Dealing

The person in front of him was his second brother, the Grand Assistant Minister of the Imperial Household Department, Minamoto no Masaya.

Gen Masaya stared at his younger brother with a half-smile, his eyes full of satisfaction.

"What, do I need your permission to come see my brother?"

"Hmph, didn't you write a letter home asking me to find some rare and precious books in the library and bring them to you?"

“That’s strange, I remember you didn’t read much.”

“My third son is living alone and destitute. As his older brother, I should try my best to fulfill his small request.”

“I brought you three truckloads of books, and I also found an excuse to take a few days off so I could come and see you.”

Yuan Qingya was also somewhat moved. He had a good relationship with his brothers, especially his eldest and second eldest brothers, who doted on him.

"The Grand Vice Minister of the Imperial Household Department must be a very busy person. I am truly flattered that you have taken the time out of your busy schedule to visit me."

Gen Masaya chuckled and waved.

"Don't be so talkative."

“I know that Musashi Province is basically under your control. Father recently submitted a memorial appointing you as the Governor of Musashi Province to suppress the country. I don’t think there will be any problems.”

"At that time, we'll both be fifth-rank officials, so you can't call me 'sir'!"

"Right, Lord Musashi-no-kami~"

Gen Kiyoya smiled very happily. His older brother had come from afar to visit him, and he couldn't help but think of many things that happened in Heian-kyo. He was filled with emotion.

"You've worked hard, second brother. How's everything at home?"

He asked the question that most travelers would say when they meet their relatives.

“What could possibly happen at home? The father’s status speaks for itself.”

"Although imperial relatives are no longer valuable, we are all subjects of the Minamoto clan."

"My eldest brother is thriving in the palace, and my fourth brother is also working hard to cultivate his skills, saying he wants to master swordsmanship so he can help my third brother."

"As for me, you know, the Imperial Household Department is a sinecure, there's not much to do, I can just ask for leave and come out."

"Father is in good health, but Mother's lung disease has worsened again. They keep talking about you, San'er. Go back and visit her when you have time."

As Yuan Qingya recalled the faces of her loved ones, her eyes welled up with tears.

The past ten years or so since he transmigrated here have been spent raising him by his parents in this life. How could they not have feelings for him?

"."

"I'll find an opportunity. I can't go back to Kyoto. That bastard Minamoto no Yorimitsu is determined to fight me to the death."

"If we return to Heian-kyo, it will probably be the time for us to fight to the death."

"."

"Forget it, let's not talk about that."

"How long will you be staying, Second Brother? I've prepared a feast; let's have a good drink together!"

Yuan Zhengya sat cross-legged next to Yuan Qingya without any airs, showing no regard for palace etiquette. Achai excitedly circled around the two of them.

While playing with the dog and looking at his younger brother's face, Genji's expression softened.

"I can stay for at least ten days or half a month. They don't need me there. I'm just going there to gain experience. In a few years, I can get promoted, and then I'll have less free time."

"Oh, by the way, speaking of which..."

"I've heard about it all along the way."

"You've been away for a year, and you've certainly taken quite a few concubines."

"Xing was arranged for you by your mother; she was originally meant to be your concubine. But what are those Lady Chi and Lady Qing? I thought they were some kind of great demons from a monster novel."

Yuan Qingya gave a wry smile and shook her head.

Rumors can never be stopped.

In the eyes of his subordinates, there was only one kind of woman who could live in the castle tower and was deeply trusted by him.

What else could she be but a lady?

Therefore, Xing, Qingxingdeng, and Achi were basically treated as the mistress.

Yuan Qingya was too lazy to argue with his brother, as it would only make things worse. He simply shook his head and said, "Well, I'm at this age after all."

"What, is Mother pressuring you to get married again? Don't try to shift the battle to me, I'm ahead of you in that regard!"

Yuan Zhengya laughed helplessly and scolded Yuan Qingya. Just as she was about to say something, she saw her younger brother's expression suddenly change.

"what happened?"

He asked the question instinctively.

Yuan Qingya turned his head to look at the room, at the lone lamp beside the low table he used as a desk.

The lampshade was blue, and so was the flame.

Even though it was daytime, the light was still on.

but

The lights were already dim and seemed to be about to go out.

"."

"Is she using demonic power? Is she in the middle of a battle?"

"She's spent the entire year helping me manage the city and territory. Where has she found the time to cultivate? Her demonic power is terrifyingly weak. Who could she possibly fight?!"

With a sudden change of heart, Yuan Qingya became extremely anxious.

"Second Brother, please sit for a moment. Something has happened to Qingxing. I'm going to take a look and I'll be right back!"

Before she could finish speaking, Yuan Qingya had already disappeared.

Unperturbed, Genji strolled out of the study with his hands behind his back. He leaned against the railing of the castle tower, looking down at the lone figure and the horse galloping away, a playful smile on his face.

"Is it that Madam Qing?"

"He's quite favored, isn't he? My third brother actually has a woman who can tame him?"

"I never would have guessed!"

"But this is a good thing, isn't it?"

"I just hope that this Madam Qing isn't some kind of scheming person. Let's investigate her background!"

On the other side, there is a wilderness quite a distance from Edo Castle and the castle town.

The now drastically changed Aoandon holds a lantern, surrounded by will-o'-the-wisps, her face cold and arrogant, yet concealing a hint of unease.

She is completely different from the skinny little girl she used to be.

Perhaps it was the beautifying effect of her demonic power, or perhaps it was the truly luxurious living conditions provided by Yuan Qingya, but now Qingxingdeng is plump and healthy, with a perfectly proportioned figure. Her scholarly air has not diminished in the slightest; on the contrary, because she has been giving orders for many years, she exudes a certain majesty. From a distance, she is a beauty with both stunning looks and exceptional temperament.

At this moment, the beauty is filled with anger, and the dim lamplight is alluring.

She was surrounded.

Those who surrounded her were certainly not ordinary people who lacked common sense.

He was dressed in hunting clothes, wearing a black hat, holding a talisman, and reciting decrees.

It's an Onmyoji.

The five Onmyoji surrounded Aoandon. The one in the lead looked at her like a hunter looking at its prey, his eyes filled with desire.

It's not "lust," but "greed."

"Am I really that lucky, a newly born Azure Demon?"

"If we nurture them properly, wouldn't it be possible to create a Lord of a Hundred Tales who can be at my beck and call?"

"Form ranks, incantation, hand seals, summon shikigami!"

"How can we not take this heaven-sent treasure?"

"I was just doing something for that violent maniac Minamoto no Yorimitsu, but I ended up with this unexpected gain."

"In this generation of the Kamo family, I should rightfully be the head!"

The handsome young man, aged fifteen or sixteen, dressed in hunting attire, laughed arrogantly, the blue lantern in his eyes seemingly already his for the taking.

The situation with Aoandon is indeed not good.

To prevent the town from being destroyed by these indifferent Onmyoji who attacked without warning, and to keep Anzu from being caught up in the chaos, she lured these sudden enemies away alone to the desolate mountains and wilderness.

With the sporadic attacks from the talismans, her already limited demonic power was almost completely depleted.

These Onmyoji were clearly not novices; they appeared to be guards sent to protect the young master. Each of them had a calm expression, stood at attention in the four directions, formed an array, and cast spells to firmly suppress Aoandon.

The despair that had been dormant for a year slowly began to spread in my heart.

Aoandon gritted her teeth, her breathing becoming rapid.

Am I that weak?

"I miscalculated. I shouldn't have wasted so much time on external things. If I had honed my demonic power more and collected more strange tales, I wouldn't be in such a sorry state."

"Fine. Let's fight to the death!"

Before the thought could even finish, the sound of horses' hooves echoed in the distance.

The blue lamp in Yuan Qingya's room was connected to her spiritual thoughts.

In the town, when she first started fighting those Onmyoji, Minamoto no Kiyomasa noticed something amiss. Now, following the fluctuations of demonic energy, she found her way here without much effort.

The young Onmyoji leading the group looked at the menacing figure with disdain, seemingly used to being arrogant and domineering. With a wave of his hand, he released a paper figure.

The paper figure swelled in mid-air, transforming into a giant warrior resembling a god, brandishing a massive sword and slashing at Yuan Qingya, who was galloping towards him on horseback.

Without even asking why, he was about to cut the man and his horse in two!

Seeing this, Yuan Qingya sneered, his eyes dark and menacing. He exerted a little force with his feet, leaped up, drew his sword, turned around, and slashed down.

Sword energy overflowed, and the sword light shone brightly.

The paper figure, which had transformed into a general, was cut to pieces.
