Under One Person: The Puppet Immortal in the Tang Sect

Upon hearing Meifumen Courtyard introduce itself, Cui Ming's heart skipped a beat, but he glanced at the adoring Meifumen Courtyard staff with a calm expression.

real or fake?

What the hell did I charm with my Dan Shi power?!

"Ahem, as long as you can trust me, that's enough. Leave everything else to us."

We can't worry about that anymore. Whether it's genuine or not, the best thing is that we've made contact with the most core group of innate superhumans in the island nation.

"Uh-huh"

Meifumen nodded vigorously, seemingly trusting Cui Ming to the core.

"Oh, right, Mifuku. What's the deal with that book on the development of supernatural beings from the Iwasaki family?"

Cui Ming did not forget the original goal of this operation.

"Huh? That book that records the entire process of the development of yokai?"

Mifukumon was quite impressed with that book.

Or rather, the reason she stayed in the Iwasaki family's old house was to conceal the existence of this book.

Mifukumon directly explained the task assigned to her by the Yokai Alliance.

It turns out that someone in the Monster Alliance recently issued a large number of these cover-up tasks.

Not only Mifukumon-in, but many yokai in the Yokai Alliance who were skilled in illusion and charm accepted this rewarding and risk-free mission.

After all, this mission doesn't require fighting to the death with other superhumans, nor does it involve any battles between ordinary people.

All you need to do is use your strengths to trick them into handing the items over to the Monster Alliance.

Moreover, if they have the ability, they can directly take on the task of concealing the true content of the book.

These tasks are not only increasingly lucrative, but also completely safe.

But the old saying is true: there really is no such thing as a free lunch.

Once she came to her senses, Mifukumon realized that these yokai, who were skilled in illusion and charm, were all living in their own little world.

Finding their true identities would be harder than climbing to heaven.

But now, they've all been lured out by this so-called "high-paying, low-stress" mission and are heading all over the island nation to complete it.

Moreover, most of them also undertook the task of concealing their existence, so the locations of these people who are good at hiding were all exposed.

"But... how did they know about the secret escape route you used in the old house?"

Cui Ming raised a rather fatal question.

The question left Mifukumon, who was still reeling from the shock, stunned.

"Wait! You mean! You caught Ghost Devourer and his gang right at the tunnel exit?!"

Meifumen was instantly drenched in sweat.

That's not right!

This tunnel was actually a survival passage that Meifumen Courtyard had specially dug out by those monsters in the Monster Alliance who made their living off the soil, demonstrating her strong will to survive.

How come the back door was suddenly blocked by someone?

"Impossible! I just had this secret passage finished a few days ago! And the Iron Rat I hired is a very good friend of mine, absolutely no way..."

Halfway through her sentence, Meifumen's face suddenly turned deathly pale.

"Could it be that Rat Sauce..."

Meifumen Courtyard's eyes welled up with tears.

From what Mifukumon-in said, Choi Myung, who could guess the general plot, simply patted Mifukumon-in on the shoulder.

"Please accept my condolences. Pack your things and let's set off as soon as possible."

"Although we have wiped out a special operations team of the Curse Binding Society, there is no guarantee that the Curse Binding Society may have some special means to find out about the situation here."

"We need to leave this place of trouble as soon as possible."

Cui Ming had no time to comfort this vixen who had just sought refuge with him.

He still had too many things to deal with, such as contacting Chimpanzee and Mumei, who were far away at the Iwasaki family, and asking them to act directly according to the plan.

We should expedite an opportunity to meet with high-ranking officials in the island nation, while simultaneously coordinating the Mitsubishi Group and the Osaka Division to continue smuggling operations within the eastern country.

Cui Ming believed that these Japanese devils, who would abandon their dignity for profit, would absolutely not give up such a great opportunity.

Especially after he escorted Mifuku-in back to Tokyo.

He also intended to give the merchants from these island nations a reason.

A legitimate reason to make big money by trading with the East.

A perfect reason that even militaristic fanatics can't find fault with!

……

Fifteen minutes later, Meifumenyuan, having adjusted her mindset, packed her luggage and went to meet Cui Ming.

After all, there would be no escort from Cui Ming and the others for the rest of the journey.

With just her being a little monster, she couldn't possibly escape the clutches of the Curse-Binding Society.

Despite the fact that the Cursed Association seems to be pursued by all the supernatural beings in the island nation.

But in reality, only these weak monsters who rely on the Monster Alliance for survival know the truth.

In today's world, wars are breaking out everywhere, and island nations are diverting a large amount of manpower and resources to invade other countries.

This has resulted in the island nation having very weak internal power.

Originally unable to suppress the elusive Curse Binding Society, now that a large number of its main forces have been dispatched to fight, it is even more difficult to restrict the Curse Binding Society's activities.

Therefore, the supernatural beings within the island either collude with the Curse-Binding Society.

Alternatively, they would have been dealt with by the Curse-Binding Society early on and replaced by people affiliated with the Curse-Binding Society.

In the entire island nation, only Tokyo and Kyoto probably still have any control over the Cursed Bonds Association.

As for other places, the Curse-Binding Society is like a monkey ruling the mountain when the tiger is away.

Fortunately, the number of members of the Curse Binding Society is not large, and they do not pose a high threat to ordinary people.

Therefore, their presence is relatively low on the surface.

But for those weaker monsters and strange people, as well as ordinary people who accidentally witnessed the Cursed Bound Society's actions...

That would truly be living in hell.

If you're lucky, you might even get a whole corpse.

They said it was an accidental death, gave you some money, and that was the end of it.

The unlucky ones, even in death, become scapegoats for others.

Not only that, but it also causes suffering to their families.

The victim also has to pay others an astronomical sum in compensation.

Can't afford to pay?

That's easy, just deduct all the family assets.

You say it's not enough? Or that there isn't enough?

That's easy to handle, there are always relatives, right?

The men worked as slaves to pay off their debts, while the women used their bodies to repay the debts.

what?

You say you have neither family property nor relatives?

Then there's nothing else they can do; the noble lords will have no choice but to use your remains as stepping stones for their advancement.

Chapter 262 The Miracle of the Cursed Guild

Xia and Die have been sent by Cui Ming to inform Qianmian and Wuming to impersonate Yamashita Akira and continue to contribute to their smuggling operation.

So now, only Yongen and Bailian are following along.

Cui Ming took the lead and walked at the forefront.

The three-tailed fox named Meifumon stayed close to Cui Ming, never leaving his side.

She looked like she couldn't breathe without him, practically glued to Cui Ming.

Yongen followed behind Cui Ming, keeping a distance of half a meter, meticulously guarding his surroundings.

Further back are Bai Lian and Gui Tun, who, after undergoing Bai Lian's later modifications, became Bai Lian's second-generation puppet.

Under Bai Lian's unique aesthetic, the Ghost Devourer, which was originally just a little ugly, was transformed.

They've completely lost their humanity.

His entire body was replicated by Bai Lian according to the legend of the Ghost Devourer.

Here, I must first clarify one thing.

That is, Oni-don is not the Oni King Shuten-dōji from Onmyoji, but a monster from Japanese folklore.

Legend has it that in ancient times on the island nation, a couple who eloped had nowhere to hide from the rain and eventually found a huge house with no door.

For safety, the man chose to stand guard outside in the rain, while the woman hid inside.

The man stayed up late into the night, and due to exhaustion, he eventually fell asleep.

When he opened his eyes again, he found himself lying in a desolate place.

Behind them, there were no houses, only blood and the woman's severed limbs.

And this enormous, doorless house is the Ghost Devourer.

Unaware of her surroundings, the woman walked into the sleeping, gaping maw of the demon.

When the ghost awoke, it opened and closed its mouth and chewed, and the woman became its food.
