"That is?"

Kikyo gazed at the thick fog over the sea, her face showing slight surprise.

"You're asking me about things in your hometown?"

I could feel the power of the barrier, but it was weakening.

Li Le replied.

If all goes as expected, Penglai Island will be available online.

We can use a cannon to kill mosquitoes again!

"This is the first time I've ever seen anything like it. Maybe we should ask the fishermen who live by the sea."

Kikyo thought for a moment and then shook her head.

The two then surveyed the thick fog over the sea and headed towards a nearby village.

Soon.

The two walked into a village, with the white horse following behind.

"It's the priestess!"

"That must be a samurai over there, right? He's so tall and imposing!"

"That white horse looks like a divine steed!"

Men, women, and children alike watched Li Le and Jie Geng and discussed it amongst themselves.

After making some inquiries...

Kikyo learned about the sea fog from the elderly villagers.

"Is it the legendary island that appears only once every fifty years?"

Standing beside the fence, Kikyo glanced at the misty seaway in the distance.

I don't know the specifics either.

These stories were passed down from people who had visited and returned before.

I've heard there are humans, monsters, and half-demon on the island.

"That's what the old man with the cane said."

Li Le was surprised to hear this.

Can I go back?

It seems that Penglai Island has not yet been conquered by the Four War Gods.

Um...

Is this a deliberate arrangement to give me mosquitoes at their peak?

Is it because it's a later theatrical release that it refreshed because I came across it?

Thank you.

Kikyo withdrew her gaze and looked at the old man.

"No need, no need, you're too kind, Shrine Maiden. Please continue your conversation."

The old man chuckled and slowly walked away.

"Shall we go on a trip to the island? It's a mysterious area that only appears once every fifty years!"

Kikyo said to Li Le.

"Of course I have to go check it out!"

Li Le nodded.

The two left the village and boarded horses at the seaside.

The white horse, its hooves swift and powerful, glides across the water, embodying the grandeur of a true divine steed.

shore.

"As expected of the priestess and the young hero, they were able to tame such a magical mount."

"I'm so envious!"

"Yes, I wish I could live such an extraordinary life."

The villagers, standing in twos and threes gazing into the distance, sighed repeatedly.

On the sea.

The white horse swiftly approached the thick fog and plunged into it without stopping.

After a while.

An island came into view for Li Le and Kikyo.

The shrine maiden Kanade and several island-guarding monsters standing on the shore also saw the two at the same time.

The two quickly closed the distance after making eye contact.

"You're so kind to be greeted as soon as you arrive."

Li Le, on horseback, looked at Zou Ji, whose face he could finally see clearly.

"Every fifty years on this day, we will be here waiting for outsiders to arrive from the weakest point in the barrier."

Zou Ji looked at Li Le and said calmly.

Then his gaze shifted to Kikyo, who was being held, and he asked with surprise, "Are you a shrine maiden?"

"I didn't expect you to be a shrine maiden too. It seems you're the one protecting this island."

Kikyo was surprised after sensing the other party's pure spiritual power.

"Is it worth choosing him and abandoning responsibility?"

"It was a quiet, somber tone," Zou Ji said.

"There is no question of whether it is worth it or not, only whether you are willing to do it or not."

Fortunately, he is my disciple, and he shares the same responsibility as me.

Kikyo smiled slightly, her inner turmoil and confusion dispelled, and said quite decisively.

"He's your apprentice? You certainly have some ideas."

"Souhime said with a look of astonishment."

"This has nothing to do with me; he insisted on becoming my disciple."

Kikyo explained.

Li Le smiled smugly at this.

"Although it has nothing to do with me, I still want to meddle in other people's business."

I hope you have the ability to laugh.

Zou Ji looked at Li Le and said solemnly.

Although she had already realized that she couldn't see through Li Le's situation.

"It was a very friendly meeting of shrine maidens, much more harmonious than the previous meeting of shrine maidens called Tsubaki."

You can rest assured, I am a prodigy personally selected by my master and mother-in-law.

Li Le answered confidently.

"Technology Explosion Initiated! For my witch-like mother!"

"It feels like there aren't enough shrine maidens and shrine maidens to go around."

"Why not just start your own school of thought?"

"middle!"

Five Li Les spoke in the cross-border voice chat.

"A prodigious beauty?"

Upon hearing this, Zou Ji looked Li Le up and down again.

"Don't stare at me like that, my master and wife might get angry."

Li Le smiled and said.

Kikyo smiled upon hearing this and gently nudged Li Le in the chest with her elbow.

Zou Ji smiled and said, "It was my presumption. Welcome to Penglai Island."

"It's getting late now. Would you like to rest for a bit, or perhaps you'd like to wander around a bit?"

"When in Rome, do as the Romans do. How long will this exit from the barrier last?"

Kikyo took over the conversation.

"Three days"

"Let's rest first, and then we can look around during the day."

"Okay, come with me."

Zou-hime gestured with her hand.

The white horse carried Li Le and Jie Geng as they followed.

Soon.

Li Le and Kikyo sat on a bench under the eaves of the sea-view room.

Watching the departing figure of the concubine.

"This island is a spacetime barrier, and time flows slowly within it."

No wonder she only appears once every fifty years, and Princess Kanade hasn't aged.

Kikyo said softly.

"I feel like I can start learning some new things."

Li Le nodded.

"You're not planning to find another beautiful female master, are you?"

Kikyo smiled faintly, her tone wistful.

"Of course not, you don't need to be jealous."

Li Le laughed very readily.

"Actually, it's quite common for powerful men like generals to have wives and concubines."

"You're countless times stronger than them, don't you have any ideas?"

Kikyo was quite pleased with Li Le's straightforwardness, but she teased him with a smile.

"What do you mean? You're not implying anything, are you?"

Li Le feigned surprise.

"I understand the principle that it's better to guide than to block, but they can only be concubines."

Kikyo's eyes began to gleam with amusement.

"Really? Master's wife really has the demeanor of an empress!"

"I'll go talk to Zou-hime now."

Li Le deliberately put on a happy face, and stood up after speaking.

He has just taken a step.

A fierce, sharp shout rang out from behind.

"You dare!"

Li Le turned around and saw Kikyo's dark expression for the first time.

He grinned and said, "You're the one who wants to play, and you're also the one who can't afford to play. You're already unhappy?"

"You come back here right now, and see how I'll make sure you don't have the energy to think about anything else."

Kikyo reached out and grabbed Li Le's wrist, pulling him back so that he could sit on her lap.

After saying that, her pretty face blushed.

"Wow, is she channeling a domineering female CEO?"

Li Le said with a contented expression.

"Hmph, I've been exorcising demons all by myself for so many years, I'm perfectly capable of being a domineering female CEO. You better watch out."

Kikyo spoke with a resounding voice and a smile.

The two chatted and laughed for a while.

A powerful demonic aura suddenly swept out from the weakest point in the barrier.

"Such a powerful demonic aura!"

Kikyo, her face flushed with embarrassment, immediately changed her expression and said in a solemn voice.

"Just four petty scoundrels."

Li Le, still sitting on the lap of the bellflower, turned his head to look at the distant coastline.

A few seconds later.

The pitch-black coastline erupted with multiple strange phenomena fueled by spiritual and demonic power.

The sound of the explosion echoed throughout the island.
