Feiyue said softly, "Husband, I have subdued her. You can continue questioning her."

Morikawa Yu nodded.

The tengu girl, Takami Chiyoko, who was standing nearby, also realized what was happening and moved away from Maizuru, backing away with a look of lingering fear.

"Thank you, Your Highness, thank you, Your Highness."

She bowed to Morikawa Yu.

If Morikawa Yu hadn't stopped Maizuru with her sword, she would definitely have been taken hostage by Maizuru.

After a moment of silence, Lord Raven Feather bowed slightly to Morikawa Yu: "I apologize, Your Highness Morikawa. I was too trusting of this intruder just now."

"It was my fault."

She sighed, took a deep look at the restrained Maizuru, turned around and walked to Chiyoko's side, sheathed the sword in her hand, unsheathed it, and handed it to Chiyoko: "Go, Chiyoko."

"As Lord Morikawa Yu said, go to this palace to find Mami and see if she is really under a spell. Use your divine power to break the spell on her."

"If you can't find her, just wait here in this hall for a while, and we will go look for her."

"Yes." Chiyoko Takami took the katana, held the scabbard, turned and walked out of the hall towards the main hall.

Morikawa Yu turned his gaze away from Takami Chiyoko and looked at Maizuru beside him.

Wuhe was enveloped in the crimson light of the crimson moon, rendering her unable to move.

Mitsuko hugged Morikawa Yu's arm, looking at him curiously: "Darling, how did you find her? And how did you know her name?"

When Morikawa Yu exposed Maizuru just now, he accurately said Maizuru's name.

Although Maizuru disguised herself well, pretending not to know what Morikawa Yu was talking about, she could still see Maizuru's astonishment. However, she had already decided to leave the matter to Morikawa Yu and would only intervene when Morikawa Yu made a mistake or encountered danger, so she did not point it out.

Morikawa Yu shook her head: "I just used my power to go back in time and saw her take Miss Mizuki Rin to the main hall, and then she became Miss 'Mami' and came out of this hall."

“In the power system, Miss Mizuki Rin calls her ‘Maihe’, and I’ve remembered it.”

"Mmm." Mitsuko smiled. "I see. Being able to use the power of authority so skillfully, my dear is amazing."

"Don't praise me for something like this," Morikawa Yu sighed. "You have to praise me for something so simple, it makes me feel like your usual praise for me isn't convincing at all."

“But I just wanted to praise you, my dear.” Mitsuko hugged Morikawa Yu’s hand, rested her forehead on Morikawa Yu’s shoulder, and gently rubbed it: “You need to keep your confidence in yourself, so that you will be more motivated to train.”

"If you keep getting stronger, my dear, you might be able to surpass the limits of humanity and become an immortal being."

"If all else fails, Fei Yue and I will have no choice but to play the villains and capture Ji Zi, or fight against our other old friends and seize their essence."

Morikawa Yu shook her head slightly: "It doesn't necessarily have to be done that way."

He still didn't want Mitsuko and Hiizuki to make enemies with other divine demons because of her.

He glanced at the Crow Feather God beside him, then stopped speaking and instead sent a telepathic message to Mitsuko: "I can take the medicine I gave to Ryoko; it will work on me too."

"Really?" Mitsuko paused for a moment.

"Will my darling turn into a child after taking the medicine?"

She looked Morikawa Yu up and down, and then, as if she had thought of something, she suddenly smiled: "If my darling becomes a child and I raise him slowly, it suddenly feels like I'm raising my lover with my own hands."

"Asaka might be very happy too. She always felt that you thought her body was too small. When you grow into a cute little boy, she and you will be about the same age."

"No way," Morikawa Yu immediately refused.

Raising a little girl is one thing, but having someone else raise a little boy is another. He doesn't want such a strange experience.

"You stinky fox, what are you whispering to your husband?" Fei Yue frowned slightly.

Mizuko released Morikawa Yu's hand, walked towards Hiizuki, and used telepathy to repeat her conversation with Morikawa Yu.

Feiyue's expression also became strange.

She looked at Morikawa Yu, as if she had thought of something, and her face flushed slightly: "No, I think my husband is fine as he is now, yes, he is very good as he is now, there is no need to change."

Mitsuko sighed and looked at Morikawa Yu again.

Morikawa Yu immediately shook her head.

He stopped the topic, turned and walked towards Maizuru, scrutinizing the girl who had suddenly appeared and wanted to take Mizuki Rin away, then glanced at the resolute "Mizuki Crane" above her head.

He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he felt that the word "determination" above her head had become dim, as if it had faded and lost its luster.

He immediately became alert and approached Wuhe.

Behind him, Fei Yue seemed to have noticed something as well, her gaze showing some surprise.

She clenched her fist, and the crimson space enveloping the dancing crane slowly solidified. The dancing crane's body twisted and gradually disintegrated, eventually turning into a tattered golden crane feather.

"Interesting, it's actually a magic spell that allows a substitute to fake death."

She looked around, surveying the side halls and the square in front of the main hall.

"A spell to feign death using a substitute?" Morikawa Yu frowned. "What is that?"

Feiyue turned to look at him: "It is a technique that uses demonic or divine power as its source to condense a false body, which takes the damage for the real body when it is severely injured, and transfers the real body to its original body."

"It was Zhizi who told me about this magic a while ago."

“She came to our house a while ago, and we chatted when we had nothing to do. She talked about her battles with the priestesses of past generations.”

"The previous priestess, Mizuki, created this technique based on the legacy of previous priestesses. She then used it when she fought with Chiko, deceiving Chiko into believing she had won. In the end, she reappeared in front of Chiko, leaving Chiko feeling ashamed and angry for a long time."

"I didn't expect this intruder to know this technique... Interesting."

Morikawa Yu frowned.

He thought of the intruder named Wuhe's determination, "Water Moon Crane," and the previous priestess was named Water Moon. She also knew the magic of the previous priestess. No matter how you looked at it, they couldn't be separated.

"What's the situation with this generation's priestess?" Morikawa Yu asked.

The problem lies with this generation of priestess, who inherited the legacy of the previous generation. Therefore, this "Water Moon Crane" is very likely a follower of this generation of priestess.

The fact that this "Water Moon Crane" wanted to take Water Moon Rin away before they even saw her seemed suspicious.

Chapter 509 was instantly killed.

“This generation’s goddess…” Fei Yue paused for a moment.

She used to be in the Hokuriku region, and later went to the Kanto region, so she didn't pay much attention to Izumo.

Mitsuko spoke up: "I know some information about this generation's priestess."

"I had Kaoru gather information for me recently. The current priestess is the adopted child of the previous priestess, Mizuki, named Hanami Yuki. She took over the priestess's legacy about three years ago."

"She was thirteen years old then, and she's probably sixteen or seventeen now. However, the succession of the Divine Lord changes the status of the successor, so her appearance should not have changed much."

"Yes." Morikawa Yu nodded.

Suddenly, Morikawa Yu thought of something else, and her expression became strange.

"Hizuki, Mitsuko, I remember when Kijiko came to see us last time, she said she wanted to challenge the First Shrine Maiden to a duel, right?"

Feiyue nodded.

Mitsuko nodded as well.

Morikawa Yu: "But this generation's priestess is only sixteen or seventeen years old, right?"

"She challenged a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl to a duel?"

A powerful demon from the Age of Gods, a hidden peerless expert, challenges a teenage girl to a duel.

As expected of you, Kannazuki Chiko.

A powerful yokai from the ancient times, thousands of years old, might use speed to trick or ambush a teenage girl during the fight.

He's lost all sense of martial ethics.

Hiizuki and Mitsuko exchanged a glance.

Mizuko frowned slightly: "That's true, but the inheritance of the Supreme God is enough to give this generation of priestess power that matches her status. In addition, with the teachings of the previous priestess, Kijiko may not necessarily be able to defeat her."

"Of course, she's acting strangely now, and Pheasant hasn't been able to find her either."

"Let's deal with this anomaly first."

"Yes." Morikawa Yu nodded.

Feiyue turned her gaze to the surroundings of the square: "Husband, please pay attention to your surroundings. Zhizi told me that using this kind of magic consumes a lot of energy and cannot be transferred very far. The demonic power of that 'Dancing Crane' just now was not strong, and it can only be used once at most."

"When she reappears, she won't be able to escape."

Morikawa Yu: "Okay."

His gaze swept over the surrounding buildings.

Suddenly, he frowned, looking at the black and white pillars in front of the side hall, which were carved with flying birds.

He vaguely saw that the carvings seemed to move slightly.

No, it didn't just move slightly, it moved wildly. The sculptures seemed to transform into real birds, taking flight from the pillars and soaring into the sky above the square.

Feiyue's gaze swept over the birds, and she frowned. Crimson ripples spread across the sky, instantly freezing all the birds in mid-air.

However, Morikawa Yu did not go to see the birds.

His gaze lingered on the pillar, and he finally approached it, scrutinizing one of the bird carvings. He could vaguely see the pale gold characters "Water Moon Crane" next to it.

Hmm... I found it.

Moreover, it was found through sheer determination.

This effect of showing your determination no matter what others become is so useful.

He swung his sword directly, creating a gust of wind that struck the bird carving on the pillar.

Just as the wind was about to strike the carving, the bird suddenly turned into smoke, scattering into white feathers. However, before these feathers could fly around, crimson ripples had already enveloped them.

Feiyue gently shook hands, and the crimson light solidified, causing all the feathers to burst and shatter almost simultaneously.

Only one feather did not burst open, but fell to the ground, gradually solidifying into a human figure, returning to her original form.

She looked utterly disheveled. Her purple bodysuit was torn to shreds, her body was covered in cuts and oozing pale golden blood, and her face mask had slipped off, leaving her beautiful face completely pale. Her body trembled uncontrollably.

Feiyue looked down at her, glanced at her, and lost interest. She said in a low voice, "You should be glad you gave up resisting, otherwise I might have accidentally crushed you to death."

She walked back to Morikawa Yu's side: "Husband, I've taken care of her for you. The rest is up to you."

"Oh." Morikawa Yu nodded, putting down the knife in his hand, with a hint of regret.

This "Water Moon Crane" is a top-tier high-ranking yokai, just like Asaka, and it is determined. If you defeat it, you might gain a lot of experience.

As it turned out, Fei Yue was right next to him and instantly killed her with her power.

What a waste!

But Fei Yue meant well, so he couldn't say anything.

Next time, I should tell her in advance, or act alone.

Morikawa Yu approached the girl on the ground, thought for a moment, then took out one of his spare trench coats from the space in the Goshuincho and threw it next to the girl.

The girl gritted her teeth, her face flushed, and grabbed her clothes to cover her body.

Her clothes were almost completely torn apart, and her wounds were slowly healing, revealing her originally snow-white skin. If she hadn't done this, she would have been almost indistinguishable from being naked, and even more alluring than if she were naked.

But Morikawa Yu's attention wasn't on the girl's body; he was thinking about his conversation with Mitsuko and the others.

This yokai girl named Maizuru can use the magic of the previous priestess and possesses a "determination" related to the previous priestess, so she must be inextricably linked to the previous priestess.

But, did the previous generation of priestess have such a shikigami?

What is her relationship with the current priestess? What is the current priestess's current situation?

Morikawa Yu's mind was filled with these questions, and she wanted to get answers.

He sheathed the crescent moon and leaned down to stare at the girl.

From the direction of the temple plaza, a tengu priestess walked quickly towards him, Mitsuko and the others, and the Karasu-no-Kami bowed in greeting.

"Lord Crow Feather, Your Highnesses, we have found Lord Mizuki Rin."

"She's not far from the shrine; she just came back from outside the shrine."

"Miss Mizuki Rin is back?" Morikawa Yu was slightly taken aback.

He turned around and looked in the direction of the temple square.
