This heroine is so despicable

Ying pulled the still dazed Xing and teleported to the top of Yingxiang Mountain, where the Naruto-taisha Shrine is located, and told the shrine maiden there that she wanted to meet the chief priest.

The three of them were quickly led by the shrine maiden into the back of the shrine, and Xing finally saw the sacred cherry blossoms there.

Its trunk may not be towering into the sky, but it is enough to cover half of the shrine, and countless beautiful pink cherry blossoms bloom on its branches.

What’s even more interesting is that the main body of the tree trunk is shaped like an elegant fox, which makes the branches behind it look like graceful fox tails swaying in the breeze, looking gorgeous and divine.

When the breeze blows, scattered petals will fall, which is really a beautiful and unique scene.

In contrast to such a beautiful scenery, the beauty under the tree is equally charming - she is a fox shrine maiden with pink hair and drooping fox ears. The shrine maiden's costume with red and white as the main colors does not cover the ankles like the traditional Inazuma shrine maiden costume, but boldly exposes almost all of the thighs.

And more importantly...

[Ah…it’s actually an underarm revealing outfit! And…it’s also showing the side of her breasts! Ahhhhhh! ]

Xing's breathing immediately became uncontrollably heavy, but almost immediately, she felt a sharp gaze coming from beside her. Xing glanced at him out of the corner of her eye and it was obvious that it was Ying who was staring at her with the side of his eyes.

Therefore, although he emotionally wanted to bury his face between Master Yamaguchi's legs and absorb his fox scent, Xing still pretended to be calm on the surface.

"Oh my... Although I know you might still miss me, but... I didn't expect you to come to me so soon..."

Yae Shenzi slowly came to Yingmei, looked at her with a smile, and then began to look at Xing.

"Moreover, you brought the shogunate's most wanted criminal to my shrine. If someone sees you like this, that little Tengu from the Kujo family will come looking for me, and I'll be in trouble!"

"We used the anchor point to get up here, so we wouldn't be seen!"

Paimon said.

"Besides, we have something important to discuss with you, Lord Palace Administrator!"

"Important? Why, didn't Daocheng Yingmei give you the mirror? Or did Shenying Daifu encounter unexpected troubles?"

"……Why?"

Paimon and Ying were both a little surprised.

"Son of God...knows about this?"

"I know?"

Yae Shinko smiled and gently lifted Yingmei's chin with a paper fan.

"The filthy power is constantly accumulating in the roots of the sacred cherry. If I, as the chief priest of Narukami Taisha Shrine, don't know about this, then I am being underestimated, right?"

After teasing Ying, Yae Shenzi put away the paper fan and turned to look at Shenying in front of him:

"According to the time, it is indeed time for the Great Purification. Unfortunately, the previous chief priest said he was going on a long journey and never came back. Although the specific methods and outlines are recorded in some ancient books, a considerable part of them have been lost. It gives me a headache..."

The other party changed his tone, and then looked at the two of them with a smile.

"But... the root branch of the divine cherry has told me that the situation has improved. I think it's your fault, right? Come~ tell me, which senior is secretly guiding you behind the scenes?"

Volume 193: The Immortal's Body Has an End, the World and the Human World: Don't be angry about that kind of thing!

After Ying finished explaining the appearance of Hanasakura and the causes and consequences of the entire Kamizakura Purification, the fox, who had originally been smiling and looking amused, became serious.

"...She said that she inherited the memory of Lord Kitsusai?"

"Well, at least that's what Hua Sanli said." Ying nodded.

Yae God's brows slightly frowned:

"As far as I know, there are only a few monsters left in Inazuma who know so much about the past, and there is no reason for them to use such a method and rhetoric to purify the Kamizakura... Wait, could it be that..."

The Son of God was slightly startled, and then the expression between his brows suddenly became complicated.

"...Yes, this is the only possibility..."

[What's the possibility? Tell me! ]

Xing couldn't help but ask:

"So, Shen Zi and Hu Zhai Gong were familiar with each other in the past? And, Hu Zhai Gong really did... die in that disaster five hundred years ago? What exactly happened at that time?"

Yae God shook his head:

"I don't know. Five hundred years ago, I was still a reckless little fox. Master Kitsai-gū... said he was going on a long journey, and he never came back... And, in that disaster, she wasn't the only one we lost..."

Having said this, the Son of God seemed unwilling to say more.

She gently called the witch in the distance and asked her to fetch her magic weapon. Then she looked at the two of them:

"Don't worry, Miss Hanasari is not a bad person. I will join you in this great purification ceremony. After all, this is the responsibility of the chief priest."

The joining of the Son of God is naturally a good thing, but Paimon on the side is a little puzzled:

"Come to think of it, why didn't Miss Hanasari come to look for the child of God? The Narukami Grand Shrine is right here..."

Yae Shinto sighed slightly, and the Palace Master, who always had a smirk on his face, also rarely showed a smile that was a little lonely at this moment.

"Perhaps he is afraid of being reminded of the past, or perhaps...he is afraid of making his old friends sad...Master Kitsai-gū has always been such a gentle person..."

At this point, Xing had roughly guessed part of the truth.

——Obviously, Miss Hanasari is most likely some kind of...returning soul of the Kitsai Palace?

This guess may not be completely correct, but anyway... it should be a similar existence.

Of course, it is also possible that this little demon somehow obtained the memory of Kitsai Palace?

Anyway... let's follow this line of thought.

Hanasari inherited the memory, but instead of looking for her former friend from Kitsai Palace, she chose Ying, a complete outsider, to help her perform the Great Purification of the Divine Sakura...

The reason is probably exactly as Shen Zi said—I don’t want to bring sadness to my friends…

So... why did she know that her friend would be sad? There is probably only one answer.

[In other words... the one in danger now is Miss Hanasari, and her situation is likely to be dire.]

Xing couldn't help but ask:

"What exactly is the situation with Miss Hanasari? Is there anything else we can... do?"

Paimon was still a little confused. After being mentioned by Xing, Yingmei also realized that the situation seemed not good. Now that she thought about it, Miss Hanasari looked like she was explaining her last wishes...

"Little guy, you are quite perceptive..."

Yae Shinko walked into the star.

The two men were of roughly the same height, so they just happened to be staring at each other.

"I haven't asked yet, cute little gray hair, what's your name?"

"star."

[You can also call me——Dear]

Since Yingmei is right next to you, you’d better not be so naughty.

Yae God nodded:

"Xing... that's a nice name... I hope you can bring me more fun in the future."

At this time, the witch next to him had brought a purple magic weapon. The Son of God gently grasped it, and lightning flashed at his fingertips. Then it slowly flew to the side of the Son of God.

The chief priest looked at the magic weapon with nostalgia. It was the night when he held the true meaning of Kagura and performed the Kagura dance for His Highness for the first time. The ignorant, clumsy and fearless little fox, hoping to win His Highness's attention, realized what a heavy burden it had been in the past...

She sighed slightly and nodded:

"Come on, let's go see her together."

--------------

The place where they had agreed to meet with Hanasari was at the foot of the mountain. When everyone arrived, Hanasari was already waiting for them.

Although she was wearing a mask, it was obvious that her gaze paused slightly when she saw the Eightfold Son of God.

Xing and Ying didn't say anything, as they were a little afraid of breaking the slightly weird atmosphere.

In the end, it was Hua Sanli who spoke first:

"You came……"

Shen Zi stepped forward and nodded:

"I am coming."

[You shouldn't have come——but I'm here]

Narrator: Shut up and don't ruin the atmosphere!

The two parties involved naturally had no idea how excited Xing, who had completely entered the spectator mode at the moment, was inside. They just looked at each other with complicated eyes, with a faint feeling of sadness that "the old people are no longer in the past".

"...The Son of God today is very different from the one I remember. It seems that the Son of God has been growing over the years..."

Halfway through her speech, Hua Sanli shook her head again:

"…I'm sorry, I'm not Kitsusai-gumi, and I don't want to pretend to be her. I just…"

"I understand..."

Shen Zi walked forward and gently held Hanasari's hand.

"I know you are not her, but... I am still very happy to meet you. This feeling is like... returning to the past..."

After another moment of silence, Hua Sanli asked:

"Baalzebul...is she okay?"

The Son of God sighed slightly:

"Actually... it's not that good, but... she's still walking on the path she believes in. You know her personality and temper..."

"That's it..."

Hua Sanli sighed slightly:

"If...if I could have a little more time...she is a person who always gets stuck in a rut..."

Shen Zi finally smiled and nodded:

"Don't worry, whether it's her or Inazuma, I will help you keep an eye on her."

"Yes, the Son of God has grown up..."

Hanasari's tone seemed to relax a little.

"It's a strange feeling, you know - in my opinion, the Son of God was still clinging to my shoulders yesterday, picking holes in the story of Yurakusai at the banquet, but now, he has become a mature and reliable chief priest..."

"Hey, hey, don't mention the past in front of others..."

Xing looked at the two people who seemed to be happier, but she felt more and more a strange sense of oppression, even suffocation - it was as if...

[It’s like two people who already knew they were going to say goodbye forever are saying their final goodbyes.]

--Do not!

That kind of thing! I will never allow that kind of thing!

[Don't shout, you know me, with me here, don't even think about tragedy or separation! ]

That’s right! Destiny is meant to be broken!

Xing couldn't help but stepped forward and interrupted their memories. She asked seriously:

"Ms. Hanasari, now that the Son of God is here, please feel free to tell us the whole story - as long as we all work together, there will definitely be a solution."

As Xing directly raised the question, Ying and Paimeng on the side also nodded, expressing the hope that the two could explain the matter directly so that everyone could work together.

Hanasari and Miko looked at each other, and finally the former nodded:

"Still...please let me explain. After all, I was the one who got you guys involved."
