My new wife discovered my past.

"In the past, you didn't have to care about it. It's no big deal to be an ostrich and ignore this loophole..." Watanabe changed his tone to a serious one. Even though he couldn't touch Hoshimi Haruka, he reached out and touched her shoulder, pretending to shake it:

"But now, Xiaoyao, you must remember that in our plan to seize power through a palace coup, your aunt Hidaka Mari is our biggest enemy!

"However, in the past, Lord Shinju Hidaka was able to use his divine power in public without the approval of the Lord God...

"Then who can guarantee that Hidaka Mari doesn't have this ability but doesn't use it?

"We cannot confirm whether Hidaka Mari is hiding her strength and biding her time, pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger. We have to be on guard against whether she is showing weakness to the enemy and deliberately exposing her flaws to fish in her own nest!

"The palace coup and the seizure of power concern us, the lives and property of me, Kiko, and all the priestesses who follow Xiaoyao. It is worth it for all of us to consider every step and every possibility in detail!

"Brother, you are not putting pressure on Xiaoyao... Since we have decided to take this step and implement that plan, we must devote all our energy in the next month or so to strive to kill Hidaka Mari with one blow!

"Even though the number of priestesses under my command and my base at Hidaka Shrine are not as strong as Hidaka Mari's, as long as I have a powerful weapon like Xiaoyao, I have no problem saying that the advantage is mine.

“But now… Mari Hidaka may have a hidden card in her hand. We don’t know how many times she can use this card to mobilize her divine power. This is the biggest variable!

"Xiaoyao...if we're not careful, we might be wiped out!

“By then, not only will I completely lose the chance to turn the tables and become their forbidden meat forever, but Jiko’s life will also be in danger!

"Even Haruka-chan might be treated the same way as Tsukimiri and Hidaka Mari!"

Every heart-piercing word from Tetsuya Watanabe was like a huge hammer, hitting Hoshimi Haruka hard and breaking her defense.

Xing Jianyao knew that she could no longer turn a blind eye.

Why are so many priestesses under her ready to make a move, while she herself has remained silent, waiting for the gradual transfer of power at Hidaka Shrine?

It’s simply because Hoshimi Haruka more or less knows the hidden card of her aunt Hidaka Mari!

She could only accumulate strength and continue to practice to strengthen herself in order to cope with the hidden pressure from Mari Hidaka.

Anyway, as the only shrine maiden in Hidaka Shrine who can connect with the gods, she naturally enjoys the first right of inheritance. Her strength and influence will only grow stronger with time. It is enough for Hoshimi Haruka to stabilize the situation.

As long as Hoshimi Haruka is given a few more years, three to five years at the fastest, seven to eight years at the slowest, by that time, more and more priestesses will gather under her command, and there will be priestesses who will help her put on the hakama of the Sixth Hokkien!

But now, since the established policy of completing the palace coup and seizing power within two months has been set, we have to act in advance.

Xing Jianyao was already prepared.

Watanabe Tetsuya's words awakened Hoshimi Haruka and she would no longer have any hesitation, nor would she underestimate her aunt Mari Hidaka and her subordinate priestesses.

"Brother, Xiaoyao understands the interests involved. Xiaoyao will unwaveringly support you and stay by your side until we succeed!"

"Okay! Brother is really grateful to Xiaoyao." While expressing his gratitude, Watanabe Toru pretended to hug Hoshimi Haruka tightly, even though it had no effect.

"Xiaoyao, can you tell your brother what you have discovered over the years?"

Hoshimi Haruka nodded: "Yes, brother... Do you remember what gift I prepared for Brother Toru and the unborn baby in Sister Noriko's belly when I first met Sister Noriko?"

The sudden question made Watanabe Tetsuya stunned for a moment, and then a bright red jade necklace like agate seemed to cut through the sky and pierced into Watanabe Tetsuya's mind.

"That red magatama necklace!?" Watanabe Toru was also surprised and confused.

He was very familiar with this kind of red magatama necklace. Hoshimi Haruka had one, but didn't wear it often.

Mari Hidaka also had one, but it was much bigger and she always wore it around her neck. Even when taking a bath, Toru Watanabe had never seen Mari Hidaka take it off.

"That's right, brother. I have that... No, I have two of these red jade necklaces on my hand. They are all passed down from past generations of gods and priestesses..." Xing Jianyao was silent for a moment before emphasizing his tone:

“But I can sense the aura of divine power from both necklaces.”

In order to prevent her brother Toru from not understanding what this meant, Hoshimi Haruka gave an example and explained in detail:

“It wasn’t simply impacted by divine power, but rather it was a container that could store divine power.

"In order to prove whether anything can store divine power, I have used many things to conduct experiments, including rings, bracelets, other necklaces, and even rice cookers...

“But unfortunately, none of them can do that. They can’t withstand the impact of divine power, let alone store it.

"The material of this red jade necklace is definitely not simple. It is a rare treasure in the world."

Watanabe understood and felt a little uneasy: "If this red magatama necklace is so precious, why did Hidaka Mari give it to Xiaoyao? And why did she give two at once?"

"Because it's useless."

"What do you mean?"

"I tried to transfer divine power into this red magatama necklace. It worked. The divine power did not wash the necklace into dust, but it could no longer store divine power. It was considered waste. Both necklaces were...

“Maybe there are too many of them, I saw four or five of them.

“The most crucial point is that this should be something that my aunt showed me specifically to let me know.

"Well, she is reminding me not to do wrong things, and also warning me."

Watanabe Tetsuya remained silent, took a deep breath and then said, "Xiaoyao is right, but at least the red magatama necklace worn by Hidaka Mari should still be useful, right?

"Otherwise she wouldn't have kept it around her neck."

"Brother, what you said makes sense, but Xiaoyao has never had it, so I really don't know..."

Xing Jianyao could only sigh helplessly.

For a moment, both of them were silent.

After a long time, Watanabe said: "It is good that we are prepared now, which is much better than being confused and having no idea why we were defeated in advance when the enemy is at the gates.

"Mari Hidaka feels that she is in the dark and we are in the light; but if we look at it from another angle, isn't it true that she is in the light and we are in the dark?"

Watanabe Tetsuya comforted Hoshimi Haruka: "Anyway, the advantage is on our side at the moment, and we still have time.

"In the next few days, Xiaoyao and I will try our best to find a clue. If we can't find it, forget it. Don't force it, lest we alert the enemy and let Hidaka Mari and her priestesses find out that something is wrong."

"Okay, Xiaoyao will listen to Brother Che."

"By the way, speaking of priestesses, how many loyal priestesses does Xiaoyao have?"

"Three... three hundred..."

Haruka Hoshimi felt very insecure because there were more than three thousand priestesses at Hidaka Shrine, and Haruka Hoshimi's influence accounted for less than one-tenth of them.

"Three hundred is three hundred, it's not a small amount!

"It's still early, and I have something to tell Xiaoyao. I want to ask if Xiaoyao can do it."

"what's up?"

Watanabe Toru paused and organized his words: "For this kind of private meeting, Xiaoyao, can you invite a few more people to participate?"

Watanabe Toru also wants to bring Sakuraba Miki in, as for Saotome Hazuki... let's talk about it later!

Chapter 391: Is Mr. Watanabe going to attack Sakuraba?

Toru Watanabe also wanted to ask Haruka Hoshimi if he could invite a few more people into this private space to hold a meeting to discuss the important matter of a palace coup and seizing power.

After all, they are not the only two doing the big thing. Sakuraba Mihime, some of Hoshimi Haruka's subordinate priestesses, and even Saotome Hazuki may also assist.

He looked up at the surroundings. The space was vast. Not to mention a few people, even hundreds or thousands of people should be more than enough.

However, when Hoshimi Haruka heard Watanabe Tetsuya's request, her face fell and she looked very embarrassed.

Watanabe Toru also saw it and asked her, "Why, can't Xiaoyao do it?

"If you can engrave a mark on me and take me into your own private consciousness space, why can't you bring other people in?

"Xiaoyao doesn't want other men to come in?

"Don't worry, we are all women. Ignoring the courtyard halfway up the mountain, I should be the only man in the entire rear hall complex of the Hidaka Shrine."

Men are strictly prohibited from entering the rear hall complex of Hidaka Shrine, and Toru Watanabe is the only exception so far.

But it was obvious that the reason why Hoshimi Haruka didn't nod and agree was definitely not this. She looked embarrassed and explained to Watanabe Tetsuya in the simplest language:

“Brother Che…After Xiaoyao first awakened this ability, he could only understand the general information, not the complete information.

“After entering this consciousness space tonight, Xiaoyao finally had a full understanding of the introduction of this ability.

"Well, although the new ability can engrave a mark on a person and bring them in, it may be because Xiaoyao is a woman, so the person who can be engraved with the mark by Xiaoyao can only be a man...

"It only works on the opposite sex..."

As she said these words, Xing Jianyao was so embarrassed that she almost dug her toes into the ground!

This is also why Hoshimi Haruka repeatedly complained that this new ability was useless to her.

Because Hoshimi Haruka will only use this ability on Watanabe Tetsuya!

Watanabe Toru was also confused by these rules. He obviously didn't expect such restrictions. Doesn't that mean that communication between him, Hoshimi Haruka, Sakuraba Miki and others will still be extremely difficult in the future?

We still need to communicate under the watchful eyes of Mari Hidaka and Saki Tsukimi. If we are not careful, we will be discovered. The leak rate has greatly increased...

"Can't we bring a woman in?" Watanabe Toru frowned and felt a severe headache.

Without this convenience, it would be like a person who is trapped in the desert and extremely thirsty sees a bottle of mineral water. He runs to drink the water in ecstasy, but cannot get close to it. When he finally gets the bottle, the water inside has already evaporated.

It would be better not to give such hope in the first place!

"In fact, those who can pull women have more stringent conditions and special circumstances. I feel that Brother Che may not do it..."

After much deliberation, Hoshimi decided to tell Watanabe Tetsuya the requirements of this ability, but the miko was unwilling to do so and spoke with some reluctance:

"Xiaoyao doesn't want her brother to do that..."

Watanabe Tetsuya didn't care about anything. As long as there was a way to solve it, it would be fine. He asked hurriedly, "What are the conditions? Tell me first."

Taking a deep breath, Hoshimi Haruka spoke out the conditions that had been imprinted in her mind:

"Although Xiaoyao cannot engrave marks on women, the men engraved with marks by Xiaoyao can use other methods to connect Xiaoyao with other women, thus achieving a series connection. With Brother Che as the node, all other women can be pulled into this consciousness space by Xiaoyao."

"Xiaoyao means... using me as a medium to connect other women, does it require traditional mating methods to meet the conditions?"

What he got was Xing Jianyao closing her eyes and nodding slightly.

Seeing the shrine maiden nod in affirmation, Watanabe Toru felt it was so ridiculous that he couldn't help laughing.

What kind of evil method is this?

Is it true that the deity enshrined in the two major shrines in Ameminaka-cho, Hidaka Shrine and Kiyomizu Shrine, is not an evil deity?

And from what Hoshimi Haruka described, is that ability the chakra coat of some tailed beast? It can be passed on to the other party with just a touch, allowing the other party to also wear the same chakra coat?

No, compared to this chakra coat that can be used as long as there is physical contact, Hoshimi Haruka's ability is really too weak, and it requires such troublesome mating...

Looking up at his brother Toru's reaction, Xing Jianyao continued in a low voice: "Of course, this is still subject to conditions.
