“Just take it as it is.

"Well, that's it."

Chapter 531: Changes in Lingshanfang

"This is?"

"You'll know after reading it."

Lin Ye received a letter from Lingshanfang. It had already been opened. He took it out and read it quickly.

After a while, Lin Ye put down the letter, observed Lingshanfang's expression, and asked a question.

"Do you know who the other party is?"

In response, Lingshanfang shrugged and downplayed the matter.

"There are too many enemies, and I don't know which one it is."

"When will the cycle of revenge end? If that's the case, we should have killed him back then." Lin Ye sighed.

"You are crueler than me."

Lin Ye chuckled, it was undeniable.

Over the years, we have been killing evil spirits and murderous monsters with the attitude of eradicating them completely, even if we have to dig three feet into the ground, otherwise it will cause civilian casualties.

Apart from work, Lin Ye's attitude towards people has always been humble and polite. He does not fight or compete with others. He just treats it as a good relationship, because he will leave sooner or later anyway.

This morning, Lingshanfang received a warning letter, which should be from an enemy, saying that he wanted to avenge the past and asked Lingshanfang to pay attention.

Lingshanfang had made too many enemies in the past, and the preview letter did not mention many useful clues, so she really couldn't remember.

In the past, Ling Shanfang would have found it interesting, but now that she has a family, she is worried about endangering Guangdai.

It happened that Hayashi was on a business trip at Naruto-taisha Shrine, so he asked him to help protect Mitsuyo while he went to ask his old friends and look for clues.

As for her husband, he has some abilities and cannot die.

This year, Mitsuyo is already eight years old. Compared to humans, she is still a cub, but this little Black-Winged Tengu loli punches slimes and kicks flowers, and her fighting power is very strong.

"Uncle Lin Ye, do you know what my mother is doing?" Mitsuyo blinked and asked coquettishly.

Seven-year-old Mitsuyo vaguely resembles Reizenbo when she was a child, with a single ponytail and a princess-cut haircut.

"Work stuff."

"But my mother's expression was a little grim when I saw her this morning. Is that a problem?"

"Maybe." Lin Ye said, reaching out to touch Mitsuyo's head.

Mitsuyo pushed Hayashino's hands upwards and muttered, "It won't grow taller."

"Mitsuyo is not short among people of your age. You are Lingshanfang's daughter. You have the genes, so you don't have to worry about not growing taller." Lin Ye said with a smile.

Mitsuyo smiled when he heard this, and he was very pleased with the words.

"Shall we go to the shrine to play with your sister Shenzi?"

"I always feel like Uncle Lin Ye has been treating me like a child."

"Nothing."

Lin Ye took Mitsuyo's hand and took her away from the Tengu clan's territory and went to the Narugami Taisha Shrine.

Kitsunesai was handling shrine-related matters. When he saw Mitsuyo, he smiled and asked, "Why did Mitsuyo come to the shrine today?"

"My mother went out for something and asked Uncle Lin Ye to look after me. Tsk, I can obviously take care of myself."

Upon hearing this, Hu Zhaigong looked at Lin Ye and made eye contact with him.

(What's going on?)

(We’ll talk about this later.)

(it is good.)

"Are you exchanging information? Use your eyes. Don't hide it from Mitsuyo." Mitsuyo said.

"Nothing much. By the way, I have some cakes made by Xiao Xiang. You like sweets, right? Take some."

Mitsuyo was soft-hearted and didn't care about Lin Ye and Hu Zaigong whispering behind her back.

Kitsuzaigong and Hayashi leave the room.

Lin Ye looked back at Mitsuyo who was concentrating on eating snacks, and whispered to Kitsusai Palace about the situation.

"Why am I not surprised?"

"You, stop gloating. What information do you have?"

"No." Hu Zhaigong spread his hands. "Lingshanfang was wandering around. How would I know who she met and what enemies she made? She never considered the consequences."

After hearing this, Lin Ye thought about it and actually felt that Hu Zhaigong's evaluation was correct.

However, she has changed now.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have asked Lin Ye to protect Mitsuyo.

"Ling Shan Fang is good at finding people, trust her ability. You can leave Mitsuyo here, rest assured, she won't get hurt."

"You are so reliable, worthy of being Lord Saigū."

"Come to think of it, you haven't called me sister for a long time."

"..."

Lin Ye glanced at Hu Zaigong's face which had not changed at all in the past thirteen years. She claimed that she was always eighteen years old. In the eyes of ordinary people, even when they were old, this white fox priestess was still so young.

Lin Ye touched his chin and joked.

"Don't you feel weird when an old man calls you sister?"

Hu Zhaigong looked at Lin Ye's face. He was no longer a teenager, but was almost 30 years old. However, he looked like a young man.

"No matter when, it's always a pleasure to be called sister." said Huzaigong.

"That's right."

Shen He really likes Lin Ye calling her sister sometimes.

"Speaking of which, where is the Son of God? Wasn't he still at the shrine before I went to look for Lingshanfang?"

"The Son of God has gone into seclusion and asked me to tell you that he will not come out until he has cultivated himself into a human being."

"Um... so sudden? Is she in seclusion there?"

The Son of God is a genius. It only took him more than 30 years to achieve human form.

If it were any other monster with average qualifications, how could they become human beings without practicing for hundreds of years?

"My own room."

"…Okay, how long do you think she'll take?"

"Within this year."

Lin Ye estimated that it was June now, and in half a year, the Son of God would transform from a pink-haired ball to a pink-haired loli with droopy ears...

"Are you looking forward to it?"

"Shouldn't we expect that?"

"Haha, so it's a lolita complex."

"??"

Lin Ye doesn't think he is a lolita complex, he is just curious about the loli form of Yae Shinko.

……

Guangdai's personality is similar to Lingshanfang's. She is a person who can't sit still, so she asks Linye to teach her swordsmanship.

Lingshanfang himself is a famous teacher. Mitsuyo is learning the Tengu-ryu inherited sword technique, so she doesn't actually need Linye's teaching. However, Mitsuyo uses the reason that she has almost memorized those sword techniques and wants to see something new.

Lin Ye couldn't quite remember how many styles he copied from Lei's movies. Later, with combat practice, Lin Ye went back to the old ways, using a fighting method that suited him, blending a hodgepodge of styles.

Since it was Mitsuyo's request, Lin Ye naturally agreed. He asked Mitsuyo to demonstrate what she had learned, checked for any gaps, corrected her problems, and taught her some sword techniques that made up for what Mitsuyo lacked.

Guang had been training for the whole morning and was exhausted and out of breath, so Lin Ye let her rest.

At this time, Kitsusaigumi brought iced watermelon, and Mitsuyo's eyes lit up.

The chilled watermelon is cut into two halves. Mitsuyo likes to eat it with a spoon, while Linye is used to cutting it into several pieces and eating it one by one.

"Salt~ salt~" Mitsuyo hummed.

Watermelon will be sweeter if sprinkled with salt. Even Huzai Palace, who doesn’t like sweets, sprinkles fine salt on watermelon when eating it.

Lin Ye didn't have this hobby. He saw another plate next to Hu Zhai Palace, with half a large watermelon on the plate.

"For the Son of God." explained Huzhaigong.

The Son of God realized in the room that her body was not made of iron and she needed to eat, but where did she get the food?

The witch came to send it off.

“Isn’t this an upgraded version of being a shut-in?” Lin Ye complained.

The Huzhai Palace cannot be denied.

"By the way, where is Xiao Xiang?" Lin Ye thought of another person. When he was eating watermelon at the shrine before, Asase Hibiki was also next to him.

After hearing this, Hu Zhaigong was silent for a while and did not answer Lin Ye's question.

Seeing this, Lin Ye did not ask any more questions in front of Guangdai, but started eating the watermelon silently.

In the afternoon, Lin Ye and Mitsuyo played chess.

It's not chess, nor is it go, but shogi.

There are eight kinds of chess pieces in Shogi, namely the king general, dragon king, horn general, fragrant chariot, cassia horse, silver general, gold general, and infantry.

When in Rome, do as the Romans do. Lin Ye didn't know how to play before, but now he is somewhat of an expert. At least he is not like he was when he played Go and was beaten by Hu Tao.

Lin Ye's earliest understanding of shogi came from the anime "March Comes in Like a Lion", which tells the story of an adopted son who lives alone, as a high school student and a professional shogi player, and the various people he meets in the industry. During this period, he is taken care of by a pair of sisters.

Back to the topic, Lin Ye was playing chess with Mitsuyo while listening to Mitsuyo complaining about Lingshanfang.

"When my mother and I play chess, she often cheats, or when she is about to lose, she calls my father over, so that if the loss happens, it is my father who loses, not her."

Lin Ye said: 6.

Mitsuyo didn't seem like a cold Tengu, but rather a chirping little bird, and told many stories about what Reizenbo was like when he was at home.

Lin Ye could tell that she liked Lingshanfang very much.

"Lingshanfang has also tried hard. You don't know what she was like before."

"Uncle Lin Ye, what was mom like before? I heard she was very fierce."

"A battle maniac, only interested in fighting. Do you know Kirikiri Takamine? The kelp pill mentioned by Reizenbo."

"Uncle Kirikiri? I know he's mom's apprentice, just like Aunt Asase."

"Aunt Asase... Xiaoxiang followed the formal procedures to become your disciple, but Kirikiri made a bet with your mother and sold himself to her after losing the bet."

"Oh? Can you tell me about the process?"

Lin Ye slowly described to Mitsuyo the past Lingshanfang, the shadowy Daitengu who acted casually, had no femininity at all, and whose mind was full of fighting and having fun.

After listening to this, Mitsuyo opened her mouth in surprise.

Then, Mitsuyo sighed and said in a mature tone.

"Mom is willing to cook at home. When Dad makes Mom angry, she just punches him. She is really gentle."

"Mitsuo, your definition of gentleness may be off."

"But when it comes to my mother, she is definitely gentle. It turns out that my mother used to be such a...heroine with a unique personality!"

Lin Ye smiled.

From Mitsuyo, Lin Ye also learned that Ling Shanfang tried hard to play the role of a virtuous, gentle and good wife and mother who was good at cooking in her family, although her personality often collapsed.

She speaks softly at home, and is still a tomboy in front of him and Chiyo, even though she had previously declared that she didn't care if Chiyo became another her.
