Shota is surrounded by monsters!

With each repetition of the phrase, the blade of the Yellow Springs drew one step closer to Sakuraba Kazuki's heart.

"Kill me..."

With each repetition of the phrase, the Killing Stone on Huang Quan's forehead shone even brighter.

"Kill me..."

With each repetition of the phrase, tears welled up uncontrollably in Huang Quan's eyes.

Or rather, they could no longer control their own hearts.

"Hurry up... and kill me!"

Noriyuki Iitsuna remained standing in the same spot. Yomi's voice cracked, filled with pleading, but... no one stopped her. Her knife pierced Sakuraba Kazuki's heart, and her tears fell uncontrollably.

He drew the sword, shook off the blood, and sheathed it.

When she turned around again, Huang Quan had regained her calm expression. She walked past Iizuna Noriyuki, who was unable to move, leaving behind only one sentence.

"Coward."

"..."

Noriyuki Iitsuna collapsed to the ground, utterly exhausted. Yomi didn't glance at him again and began walking forward.

"Do do do—"

After a while, hurried footsteps echoed again in the underground passage.

"you……"

Shota looked at the male exorcist in front of him, whose face was streaked with tears, and asked, "Where is she?"

After remaining silent for a while, Iizuna Noriyuki said softly, "I can't do it."

"..."

Shota walked up to Noriyuki Iizuna, looked at his pathetic appearance, and suddenly said:

"As a man, you only have one minute to hesitate: kill her for the sake of the world, or fight the world for her sake."

"I'll ask you one last time, is she here?"

Chapter 83. Chaos

"It's finally starting..."

"The commander-in-chief hasn't returned yet?"

"Lord Rikuo is still too young."

"I heard that two outposts outside have already been wiped out."

"What should we do now?"

The sudden attack by the yokai from the four countries caught the Nura Clan off guard, and all the yokai within the main clan became somewhat agitated.

"Damn it, are those guys almost here?"

In the conference hall, the senior officials sat together. They had somewhat underestimated the monsters from the four countries. They had initially thought they were just clowns, but they hadn't expected that so many monsters would suddenly gather and launch a full-scale attack.

"The Nura Clan's reputation isn't what it used to be. Wow, I never expected it to have fallen to this state. It's a bit scary."

The leader of the Ghost Girl Group chimed in with a comment.

“At a time like this, we should obviously follow the Third Hokage’s instructions.”

Zhen stood up and said, "Prepare for battle!"

"Wait, Zhen, you've got it backwards. Don't forget, testing the young master's resolve is the most important thing."

The Nura Clan advisor looked at Zashiki and said, "Do you understand?"

"Hmph." Zhen snorted and said with strong confidence, "Then I'll go test the Third Hokage's resolve now."

Meanwhile, Rikuo, in his yokai form, was sitting leisurely at the entrance gate, drinking wine as if he didn't care about the yokai of Shikoku at all.

"Little Lord!"

"Hey, how about you guys have a drink too?"

Rikuo casually handed out wine bowls to Aotabo and the others, saying, "It's rare to see such a beautiful moon tonight."

Lu Sheng's composure acted as a calming agent, and the onlookers were quickly influenced by his emotions, their agitated moods also calming down.

The third generation must have many good ideas, right?

Most little monsters are like this: when they see that their superiors are not in a hurry, they will assume that their superiors already have a solution. Once they think that there is a solution, their originally anxious mood will gradually calm down.

"Young Master, I'd like a drink!"

"I want to be first, young master."

“The Third Hokage can do a good job. We old bones will just silently support him.” The Nura Clan advisor glanced at the scene and said, “But why haven’t Ushioni and Taotie returned yet?”

They've been gone for a while now. Logically, given their speed, even if they didn't catch up with their opponent, they should be back by now.

"The yokai of the four kingdoms! The Nura Clan is now utterly vulnerable!"

Inside a high-rise building in Tokyo, Yu Zhang raised his treasured sword and addressed the densely packed horde of monsters below: "All troops, advance! From this day forward, Tokyo is ours!"

"Oh!"

After some time, the Nura Clan's main family...

"The monsters of the four countries have begun to move."

"Then we should set off."

Lu Sheng slung his sword over his shoulder, stood up, and started walking forward from the entrance. Behind him, more and more monsters joined in, and before he even left the gate, they had already formed a long dragon.

At the same time, powerful demonic energy emanated from various places.

"Reporting to the young master, the monsters from all over have received your orders and gathered in Tokyo!"

"Ah, they've arrived? Just in time for a big show." Lu Sheng said with a sinister smile, "Although that guy isn't here right now, we should still get going."

"Men, it's time for a big battle!"

"Oh!"

Tonight, a hundred ghosts roam the night, and demons dance wildly.

"..."

Ushioni gripped the scabbard tightly. After dealing with the first Sessho-seki, he did not choose to return to the Nura Clan's main family. Instead, he went to the outskirts of Tokyo.

Because he had a vague idea that there would be quite a few guests visiting the city today.

"As expected..."

"It seems that taking the highway was a mistake."

Suddenly, several figures wearing black cloaks appeared in front of the bull demon.

"Kidomaru, it's all your fault for leading us down this path."

"..."

Six demons, several of whom had fought against the Gyūki four hundred years ago, and one of them was an old acquaintance. Even the Gyūki couldn't possibly handle so many demons by himself.

"Long time no see, you demon..."

"..." Without saying a word, the Gyūki drew his weapon and asked, "Why are the yokai of Kyoto here?"

"Isn't this a rhetorical question? Since you're here," the leader of the demons said, "of course you know our purpose."

"You can't exactly say you were just out for a walk, can you?"

Tokyo's underground pipes.

"Yellow Springs...why..."

Before Kagura could finish speaking, Yomi, with a smile, swung his Lion King sword and slashed at her.

"when--"

"Not bad, Kagura." Yomi looked at Kagura, who had blocked his first attack, and slowly brought his face closer to her uneasy eyes, saying, "But... you're still too green!"

With a slight increase in force, Kagura was pushed back several steps by Yomi. Then, she raised her leg and kicked Kagura in the abdomen, sending her flying.

"Trying to confront your opponent head-on when you are clearly at a disadvantage is not a wise choice, Kagura."

Huang Quan pressed her blade against Kagura's chest, looking down at the fallen Kagura, and said, "Goodbye..."

"Please wait a moment."

As the voice came, Huang Quan looked up at the person rushing over from the other side and said, "Yo, Senjougahara."

"I am genuinely happy to see that you have recovered, Master."

That's what she said, but Zhan Yuan, who walked over, didn't look happy at all. She stopped five meters away from the two of them and said, "Please forgive me for being late."

"Are you going to stop me too?"

"Hatahara-san, let's go!"

“No.” Senjougahara shook her head and said, “I am not a messenger of justice.”

"Oh?" Huang Quan looked at Senjougahara and said in a strange tone, "Hurry up and leave. Before I can think of a good reason to kill you, get out of here!"

"..."

Suddenly, Senjougahara flung out several sharp, unidentified objects that pierced the pipes beside the passageway. The gas that shot out instantly blew directly into Yomi's face, blinding him for a moment.

"Walk."

Kagura quickly broke free and started running with Senjougahara.

"gas?"

Huang Quan covered her nose with her hand, but before she could give chase, a spark on the corridor light caught her attention.

"呲-"

"Bam—"

A terrible explosion swept through the entire passageway in an instant.
