Alice was silent for a moment, her attitude suddenly turning colder, but she still answered Night Song's question: "Well, she is the master of the Demon Realm, but Mother usually stays in the Demon Realm and doesn't come out. She doesn't come to Gensokyo, so..." Alice smiled bitterly as she spoke, "I don't really have any background."
"I have a favor to ask." Yege slowly stood up and looked at Alice with sincere eyes: "I would like to meet your mother, Shenqi. Is that alright?"
"what you up to?"
Alice was somewhat wary. It would be unbelievable for anyone to suddenly ask to see her mother after knowing her for less than ten minutes. Ye Ge smiled shyly: "I have read your magic book and believe that your mother must be a very powerful person, so I would like to ask her some questions. Miss Alice, can you contact her?"
"I'm sorry, there's nothing I can do."
Alice's eyes flickered as she clutched the grimoire in her hands. She bowed slightly to Night Song, expressing her refusal. It wasn't that Alice lacked the means to contact anyone, but rather that she didn't want to. Even if her mother was powerful and fearless of any threat, that wasn't a reason for her to agree to anything anyone said to Alice. How could one possibly meet a demon god at will?
"Is that so? I'm sorry, I was being presumptuous."
Night Song wasn't annoyed. She appropriately showed a look of disappointment on her face, but then quickly regained her smile, bowed slightly to Alice, and left with Evolto, who had recovered somewhat. Alice didn't say anything, but simply sent a doll to collect the teacup and wash it, silently watching Evolto and Night Song leave.
"baffling."
Alice murmured something under her breath, her brows furrowing slightly. She glanced through her magic book but found nothing amiss. Ultimately, she could only attribute Nightsong to a fanatical pursuit of magic, and quickly forgot about him. She gathered her golden hair, gazed at the bright sunlight streaming through the window, and a sweet smile graced her face.
When will Marisa arrive?
……
"As expected, they refused."
Evolto placed her hands behind her head, ignoring the beautiful scenery before her, and said seemingly casually, "Night Song walks in front of her, her right hand raised, a blurry purple magic power swirling on it. It is the magic circle that Evolto stole from the magic book. At this moment, the magic power inside is trying to break through the seal, but such a small ball is no match for Night Song."
"It's alright, I've already gotten what I wanted. We don't need Alice; we can go to the Demon Realm on our own."
As the Night Singer clenched her fist, the magic in her hand vanished. She gazed at the sky, her eyes piercing through the clouds. Gensokyo was simultaneously shrouded by the Hakurei Barrier, the boundary between common sense and the uncommon sense. However, for her, who possessed the Genius Bottle ability, traveling freely between the outside world and Gensokyo was an easy matter. But she didn't know the coordinates of the Demon World, and wandering around aimlessly would only waste time. But now, none of that mattered.
"Let's go back first, so that Mokou and the others won't worry."
Night Song and Evolto quickly disappeared into the Magic Forest. Two seconds later, they appeared directly on the outskirts of the human world, but they did not go in immediately because Night Song sensed two familiar auras there.
"Fu Hua and Hua Hua? What are they doing here?"
Ye Ge raised an eyebrow, passed through space, and teleported to the target location. At this time, Fu Hua had already put on the Moon Wheel Armor and collided with Inuzou Momiji. At this moment, the white wolf phantom behind Inuzou Momiji had become very solid, and the white light on the blade obscured the blade. Fu Hua skillfully deflected the sharp attacks one by one.
"Miss Inuzoku, you are indeed amazing."
Fu Hua adjusted her breathing, flicked her wrist, and knocked away Inubashiri Momiji's blade. The latter adjusted her posture and unleashed four sword energies simultaneously. The Moon Armor emitted a faint purple light. Fu Hua threw punches repeatedly, dispersing the sword energies. At this moment, Inubashiri Momiji had already rushed over, and the two collided again, unleashing a wave of energy.
"Miss Fu Hua's martial arts are astonishing, but if that's all you've got, you can't defeat me." Inuzou Momiji's slashing speed increased, the continuous sword light seemed to merge into one, forming a white barrier. "Your stamina is excellent. I am stronger than before, but Miss Fu Hua, you probably won't be able to hold out for much longer, will you?"
Fu Hua was slightly out of breath. The Moon Armor was consuming a lot of energy. Although she had a huge amount of foundation, she couldn't keep up with such a waste. A glint flashed in her eyes. She pushed off with her right foot and soared into the sky before slamming into the ground. The huge shock pushed Inuzoku Momiji away. The purple armor emitted a lava-like color. In Eclipse mode, she was unleashing her full power!
"Death Force - Sky Rift!"
The high-speed punch caught up with the speed of Inubashiri Momiji's continuous slashes. On the left was a crimson fist shadow, and on the right was a tidal wave of sword light. The surrounding air was torn apart, and the air blades even cut down the trees next to them. Yege lowered his hand, and his figure flashed, appearing in the center of the battle. One hand accurately grabbed Fu Hua's fist, and the other hand clamped Inubashiri Momiji's katana.
"Night Song?"
"gentlemen?"
Both of them gasped in unison. Ye Ge nodded, and suddenly his hands trembled. They both took a step back, staring at their hands in shock. The energy they had unleashed at full power had been forcibly suppressed. Fu Hua's Eclipse form was also forced to dissipate, and the afterimage behind Inuzou Momiji disappeared. Ye Ge grabbed Fu Hua's wrist and lifted her up.
"The precision of energy control has improved, but it's not enough. In my opinion, it's still the behavior of a nouveau riche. More practice is needed. However, it's best not to use the lunar eclipse form for the time being. That kind of burst is hard to control, and if overused, it will make the body feel bad."
"I understand."
Fu Hua withdrew, gladly accepting Ye Ge's suggestion. Inuzoku Momiji gripped her katana tightly, looking at Ye Ge with a mixture of anticipation and nervousness.
Chapter 196, Section 192: Fu Hua, the Eternal Single Dog
"Yoshi! Yoshi! Momiji did a great job!"
Yoru smiled and patted Inuzou Momiji's hair. The soft ears felt wonderful to the touch. Inuzou Momiji lowered her head shyly, her ears twitching cutely. Yoru couldn't help but stroke them a few more times.
"You've become quite skilled at using the energy bottle, and unlike Fu Hua's fighting style, you leak very little energy, keeping it perfectly under control."
Ye Ge wasn't belittling Fu Hua. Because of the Luna Armor, Fu Hua had to adopt this high-burst fighting style. The energy within her body was not on the same level as Inuzomi Momiji's, making it many times more difficult to control. Inuzomi Momiji was almost at the end of this path, while Fu Hua still had a lot of room for improvement.
"It's all thanks to the teacher's kindness."
Momiji hugged the energy bottle with delight. If it weren't for Yoru-ka giving her this opportunity and granting her power, she might only be able to stay in the Youkai Mountain now, as the most lowly white wolf tengu, at the mercy of others.
"By the way, why are you here?"
Yoru's question made Inubashiri Momiji's expression become unnatural. She hesitated and stammered, so Yoru turned her gaze to Fu Hua, who directly explained: "Ms. Inubashiri Momiji showed me around the Yorozuya's simple requests. When I came back, I wanted to spar with Ms. Inubashiri. I didn't expect you guys to be back so soon, Yoru."
"Wait! Fu Hua! That's...!"
Inuzou Momiji frantically tried to stop her, but it was too late. Yoru had already turned her attention back, and she immediately wilted, lowering her head and stammering, "Because Master went out early this morning without me, it was too boring staying in the Yorozuya. I happened to have a simple request, so... I'm sorry, Master! Please punish me!"
Inuzou Momiji closed her eyes tightly, adopting a look of resignation to her fate. Fu Hua's expression immediately changed. She stepped in front of Inuzou Momiji, looking at Yoru with a wary expression: "If you want to do anything to Miss Inuzou, you'll have to get past me first." She had already seen that Inuzou Momiji was beyond saving, having been well-trained by Yoru. Little did she know that this was entirely Inuzou Momiji's own problem.
"Girl, you need to recognize the difference."
Glancing at Fu Hua blocking her way, Ye Ge tapped her temple in exasperation, snapped her fingers, and Fu Hua felt a sudden pressure in the surrounding space. With a scream, she was sent flying, landing on the ground under Ye Ge's control. Ye Ge slowly approached Inubashiri Momiji and lifted her delicate chin:
"Raise your head, Momiji. You are my guard, my family, not a slave. It's perfectly acceptable for you to do what you want, and you don't need to apologize to me." Yoru's voice was gentle. Momiji slowly opened her eyes and looked at Yoru's smile, somewhat mesmerized. So, Master has always considered me family? Is this a confession?
"So you don't need to restrain yourself anymore, just pursue your own happiness." Yoru released Inubashiri Momiji and took two steps back: "If you ever get tired of this kind of life, you can go back to Youkai Mountain. You can come back anytime. The Yorozuya's door will always be open for you."
"No way!"
Momiji gripped the hilt of her sword tightly and shouted loudly, her emotions unusually agitated: "I swear to become your sword, sir. I will not abandon my duty, and please, sir, do not say such things again."
"Uh..." Yoru choked for a moment, staring at Momiji's face, which was flushed with excitement. She patted her head in annoyance, her tone sincere: "It seems I was too narrow-minded. I'm sorry, Momiji. I see your resolve now. Please forgive me, I won't say such things again." To Momiji, Yoru's words were undoubtedly trampling on her life principles, and Yoru realized this.
"Eh, eh? No, it's okay." Seeing Ye Ge's apologetic expression, Inuzou Momiji's hard-won composure vanished instantly, and she frantically didn't know where to put her hands. Fu Hua, who was standing next to her, was anxious and glared at Ye Ge with a look of exasperation: Why don't you just hug her!
Yeka rolled her eyes at her, reached out and sheathed Inuzoki Momiji's katana, rubbed her soft ears, and turned to walk towards the human world. Inuzoki Momiji followed closely behind, while Evolto and Fu Hua walked at the very back. Along the way, Fu Hua kept her lips pursed and kept glancing at Yeka, but her gaze quickly looked away.
What are you thinking about?
Evolto, smiling, leaned closer and asked, "Why are there so many girls around Ye Ge, including Kiana and the others... Don't they mind?" Fu Hua was startled, but quickly regained her composure. She hesitated for a moment, then finally asked, "Why is Ye Ge surrounded by so many girls, including Kiana and the others... Don't they mind?"
Evolto smiled and shook his head, then suddenly asked a seemingly random question: "Fu Hua, in your memory, have you ever been in a relationship?"
"Um... I don't think so." Fu Hua didn't know how to answer the question for a moment. With her power constantly weakening, she was already struggling to protect Shenzhou, so how could she possibly have the energy to fall in love? Moreover, over the long years, all her loved ones had turned to dust and scattered away, and her concept of love had become very faint.
“To be honest, you’re not even as good as me, someone who hasn’t had feelings for long.” Evolto turned his gaze back to Night Song in front of him, his eyes full of tenderness: “At first, I didn’t understand Night Song and the people around her doing things, but now it’s different. I can feel his care, his worry and consideration for me, which is one of the reasons why I decided to stay like this, so that I can be with him.”
"Tsk, I've said too much without realizing it."
Evolto suddenly tossed his hair, smiled, and stopped talking. Fu Hua had no choice but to give up and followed him back to the Yorozuya in a sullen mood. Yeka immediately rushed into the temple house, hugged Mokou and Keine in the inner room, and, while the two looked completely bewildered, pushed them down onto Keine's bed.
"Hey, hey, hey? What's wrong with you?"
Mokou raised an eyebrow, grabbed Yoru's fidgeting hand, struggled to sit up, gave Yoru a flick on the forehead, and asked with an annoyed expression, "Didn't we just sleep together in the same bed yesterday? Are you that thirsty already?"
"No, I just missed you." Ye Ge's smile was bright and sunny. Hui Yin, standing beside her, pouted but didn't refuse. She shifted her body to find a comfortable position to lie down, her eyes fixed on Ye Ge beside her.
"Tell me honestly, what are you planning to do this time?"
Section 197, Chapter 193. The World God
"...As expected of Huiyin."
Ye Ge froze for a moment, then forced a smile. Hui Yin rolled her eyes at him.
"Come on, can't you see it? Tell me, what's the matter?"
Yoru released the two at just the right moment. Mokou and Keine sat up and looked down at Yoru, who was lying on her back. The three of them looked very awkward. Although she was being looked down upon, Yoru was sure that she hadn't lost out at all.
Because of this angle, you can see Huiyin's figure very well and Mohong's flat chest, enough to cover your eyes with her ample bosom, tsk tsk tsk, you can make a killing, but I definitely won't lose out!
That's right.
After observing silently for a while, Ye Ge slowly got up: "I'm going to the Demon Realm."
……
After a moment of silence, Huiyin slowly spoke: "Have you already met Alice?"
Yoru nodded, admitting it. Alice's background wasn't exactly a secret in Gensokyo, so it was normal for Keine to know. He looked at Mokou and said, "Alice's mother, Shinki, was a demon god and the ruler of a world. She created a complete world that was much higher than my current level, so I hope I can learn from her."
Mokou nodded knowingly. Keine might not fully understand the meaning of the World God, but Mokou did, because she had personally witnessed Yoru taking over the entire Honkai world. With the help of Pandora's Box, Yoru could now be considered a half-baked World God.
"I understand. Is it dangerous? That being might not be easy to talk to."
Huiyin was a little worried. She knew a bit about the Demon Realm, but had never actually been there, nor had she ever met the Demon God Shenqi. What if Shenqi was hostile to Yege? Wouldn't that be very dangerous?
“I’ll try to communicate with her first.” Ye Ge nodded, indicating that Huiyin would be careful. Mei Hong pouted and pinched his waist: “You already have a plan, why are you coming to us for advice? You’re just afraid we won’t agree, aren’t you? Wasn’t it the same last time? How could we possibly stop you?”
Huiyin touched Yege's cheek and said softly, "It seems you still don't understand us very well, Yege. We know what you're thinking. We'll worry about you when you're out and about, but men always have to go out and make their way in the world. So we won't be like the other women in the community, supporting you no matter what you do."
Yoru nodded slightly. He didn't understand Keine and Mokou, but the two of them understood him even better than he did. Keine saw the ambition that Yoru himself hadn't realized. The desire to become stronger had always driven him forward. Even if his thoughts and methods changed, and even if Yoru loved peace and life, this ambition was only hidden, not disappeared.
"Thank you, Keine, Mokou."
Night Song hugged the two of them tightly, and while they weren't paying attention, she kissed each of them on the lips. Then she ran away like the wind, grabbed the bewildered Evolto, and rushed towards the Yorozuya, leaving the two of them still standing there in a daze.
"Was this someone being taken advantage of? Or were there two of them together?"
Huiyin touched her lips, which still tasted slightly sweet. Mokou blushed and covered her mouth, remaining silent. Although it wasn't a big deal, the fact that the three of them were doing this at the same time in front of Huiyin still made her a little shy. For a moment, she forgot to talk. The two looked at each other, until Mokou pointed outside, and then they walked out without saying a word.
"What are you planning to do? Teleport directly to the Demon Realm? Or should you give them a heads-up first?"
Inside the Yorozuya, Yoruka temporarily placed Fu Hua and Inubashiri Momiji on the outer side, while he stayed in the inner room with Evolto. He took out a small magic circle that Evolto had extracted. Evolto leaned against the wall, watching the purple magic in his hand, and asked with some concern.
"Knocking on the door to inform the host before visiting is proper etiquette for guests."
Night Song placed the magic circle on the table and sealed it. He stretched out his finger and used magic to write a string of special characters in the air: "The magic recorded in Alice's magic book is not very valuable, but many of them are written in the language of the demon world. Moreover, there is one that happens to be used to communicate with the demon world. As long as my magic power is strong enough, I can contact the creator of the demon world."
The energy within Yege's body slowly transformed into magic. The words in the air were obscure and difficult to understand. When Yege finished writing the last stroke, all the words vanished without a trace. Yege then slammed Pandora's Box onto the table, creating a small, enclosed space. A faint sense of oppression swept over, and the purple magic on the table suddenly began to activate.
"Nice to meet you, Ms. Shinki."
Yoru nodded towards the empty space, a soft chuckle rang out, and a phantom appeared. It had long, silver hair cascading down its shoulders, and blinked its bright, pale red eyes. Shinki looked at its illusory body, the corners of its mouth gradually turning upwards. It watched with interest as Yoru and Evolto stood up, pointing a finger at them:
"It has been many years since anyone has communicated with me in this way. There are not many people outside the Demon Realm who know how to summon demon gods."
Night Song quietly retreated to the side of Pandora's Box and showed the words she had written earlier to Shinki: "I summoned it using the method recorded in Miss Alice's magic book, and it seems to have been successful."
"Xiao Ai? What's your relationship with Xiao Ai? Why would she give you this magic?"
Shenqi's expression suddenly changed, and she became tense. Her wings spread out, and the ahoge on her head stood up straight. Her loli figure exuded an aura of pressure that was not commensurate with her body. The sudden increase in pressure made Evolto gasp for breath. Yeka remained calm and quickly explained, "I just met Miss Alice. By chance, I saw the contents of her book. Please don't misunderstand, Miss Shenqi."
