I'm having fun in Tokyo

The priestess's gaze turned cold: "What does my feigned death have to do with you? Why should I tell you?"

Mizuko: "Tsk, you're already angry before we've even started talking. Lord Mizuki, do you really have the resolve to tell us what you know and sit down with us for a proper discussion?"

The priestess frowned and remained silent.

Mitsuko was much more difficult to deal with than she had imagined; she couldn't gain the upper hand in a verbal exchange at all.

She said in a deep voice, "I'll say it again: what happens to Izumo is my own business."

“One of you is the supreme god of Kansai, another is the supreme god of Kanto, and the third is the master of the Hokuriku Mountains. Just mind your own business. Our affairs in Izumo are none of your concern.”

Mizuko shook her head: "How can you say that, Lord Mizuki? Your affairs in Izumo are not just about Izumo, but about everyone in Izumo and the border region. If the anomaly in Izumo spreads, the place where Little Emperor and the others are so close to you will definitely be in danger. I am the highest god they rely on, and I must help them resolve the hidden dangers in the border region."

"Moreover, as a fellow supreme deity, I also have an obligation to help you."

The priestess shook her head: "No need."

"I am the lord of Izumo, and the affairs of Izumo are my own affairs, which have nothing to do with you outsiders."

Mitsuko's smile slowly faded, her gaze turning cold: "Lord Mizuki, if you are unwilling to tell us, we will have no choice but to take action and find the answer ourselves."

The priestess glanced at Mitsuko, then turned to stare at Hitsuki beside her: "You all came here together, are you prepared to capture me?"

Feiyue did not speak.

She stared coldly at the priestess, casually waving her hand, causing faint crimson ripples to spread around her and envelop the archipelago.

Mizuko shook her head: "No, we just want to ask the Water Moon God to have a proper conversation with us and talk about the problems Izumo is facing."

"Please tell us, Lord Watermoon, why did Izumo City in your Izumo Land disappear? Why did such a large tide of demonic energy appear a few days ago? Will this anomaly in Izumo continue to spread? If it does spread, how can we stop it? How should the Kansai and Izumo border regions deal with this anomaly in Izumo?"

"These are all pressing issues."

"Of course, it would be even better if the Water Moon Goddess were willing to explain the reason for your faked death."

"For some reasons that are hard to explain, we're very curious~"

"Fine, very well." The shrine maiden sneered, "You dare to question me just because of curiosity and some things that have nothing to do with you? You, Mitsuko, have quite the nerve."

Mitsuko: "I'm sorry, I don't have much face to lose. I'm just more concerned about the areas I govern. But you... although it might be a bit impolite to say this, do you think you're a match for me and Hitsuki?"

"Lord Water Moon, please tell me about the anomalies in your Izumo. If you tell us what we want to know, we can cooperate to help you resolve the anomalies in your Izumo. Isn't that better than our current arguments and confrontations?"

The priestess narrowed her eyes: "Since you, Lord Mitsuko, have put it this way, then I have no choice but to be frank with you."

"I don't need your help, and Izumo's affairs are none of your business."

"Besides, although I am no match for you, I am not the only one here. If you want to capture me, you should give up on that idea."

She turned to look at the main figure behind her: "Shinori, I'll leave the rest to you."

Mitsuko paused for a moment: "Kamiori?"

Her gaze shifted to the main hall next to the main hall plaza, and she suddenly noticed that the hall's doors were slowly emanating pure white demonic power.

These demonic powers silently pushed open the palace doors, and a figure stepped out.

The figure was a stunningly beautiful young woman.

She wore a white kimono, with white hair and red eyes. Her figure was as pure as snow. Waves of white demonic energy emanated from her, forming streams of demonic energy that rose into the sky, countering the crimson demonic energy of the crimson moon.

Feiyue was also taken aback.

"Kamiori? What are you doing here!?"

She and Mitsuko both recognized the figure that appeared in the main hall.

The other person's name is Masako Kanori, a great yokai from the Age of Gods in Izumo, and she can be considered a friend of theirs.

In the early Age of Gods, the other party was a great yokai who lived at the top of Izumo, living in seclusion in the land of Izumo. Among the great yokai of the Age of Gods, she was considered one of the most reclusive, and her temperament was particularly strange.

When the pheasant arrived in Izumo, she clashed with her, which allowed the first priestess to gain a lot of divine power and authority, eventually making her the priestess who ruled the land of Izumo.

Later, Kannazuki Chiko was unconvinced and would come every few decades to challenge the new priestess to a duel, wanting to defeat her and prove herself.

As for Shinori, she disappeared without a trace, only appearing once every few hundred years. Sometimes she would appear at the Izumo Shrine of the Shrine Maidens, and sometimes she would suddenly appear and then suddenly disappear, which was very strange.

They had heard about the strange events in Izumo and the appearance of Shinori, and wanted to find her. However, they never expected that Shinori would be at the Mizuwakazuki Shrine in the Oki Islands with the shrine maiden Mizuki.

Divine Weaving?

Morikawa Yu paused for a moment, staring at the girl who walked out of the main hall of the shrine.

She is the divine demon of the land of Izumo, the great divine demon of the land of Izumo, Kamioki.

Although Morikawa Yu didn't know her, he had seen her name in the shrine notebook that Ryoko had given her.

He rescued Erii and wanted to cure her illness, so he went to Ryoko to see if she could help. Ryoko gave him a notebook.

The owner of that notebook was a former head priestess of the Kanto Shinto sect, named Xiangzi.

In her diary, the priestess named Xiangzi recorded her experience of going to Izumo, and then mentioned that she met the great yokai of the Izumo era, Shinori Masako.

The notes record that this great demon of the Izumo era named Kamio possessed a power that could connect all things. As long as she used her demonic or divine power to activate the power, she could use it to connect things together.

Chapter 587 Crimson Boundary

Erii underwent pontine surgery when she was very young, which required the pons, which had been severed from her left and right hemispheres, to be reconnected so that the wound could heal. This ability of the other party happens to be able to help Erii.

But why is the other person by the priestess's side?

Morikawa Yu frowned.

According to the notes of the Goddess Xiangzi, this great yokai from the Age of Gods named Shenzhi had only a so-so relationship with the priestesses of each generation, but now she is standing next to the priestess Suigetsu.

He suddenly felt that things were getting complicated, and the anomaly in Izumo was not as simple as he had imagined.

Mitsuko stared at the newly appeared Shinori.

Shenzhi looked at Mitsuko and Hizuki in silence.

Seeing that Shinori didn't seem to be interested in talking to them, Mitsuko's gaze turned cold as she looked at the shrine maiden from afar: "Heh, even with Shinori's help, you're no match for me and Hiizuki."

Mitsuko looked at Hiizuki.

Before Mizuko could speak, Feiyue swooped down from the clouds, her beautiful silver-white hair flying behind her, surrounded by tangible, blood-red demonic power.

This crimson demonic power continued to extend in all directions, almost enveloping the entire archipelago.

This is her "realm".

The "realm" of the demons of the Age of Gods is extremely similar to the "domain" of the Supreme God. Both are manifestations of power and rules, and at the same time, they form another space independent of reality.

Once she fully unleashes her power, allowing the Crimson Boundary to completely envelop the Oki Islands, this place will become her "home ground".

Unless the priestess and the goddess also use their domains and realms like hers, which clash with her realm, they will be affected by her crimson realm during battle, making it difficult for them to exert their full strength and state.

The priestess stared at the figure of Scarlet Moon.

She released Hua Jianxue, pulled her behind her, and unleashed a divine force towards Feiyue's figure in mid-air, attempting to interfere with Feiyue and stop her from releasing her power.

As Fei Yue unleashed her full power, she flew down.

Facing the divine power of the priestess, she didn't even try to dodge, but instead crashed directly into it. Her protective crimson demonic power shattered and scattered all of the priestess's divine power.

Beside the priestess, a white-haired, red-eyed girl named Kamori leaped into the air, her pure white demonic energy rising upwards.

She, like a priestess, unleashed her demonic power and attacked Scarlet Moon.

However, Fei Yue did not dodge her demonic power either, directly smashing it away and falling down.

Despite the immense power of the priestess and the demonic power of the divine weaver, they were still unable to stop Scarlet Moon. Scarlet Moon's crimson demonic power continued to spread, eventually engulfing the entire archipelago.

Finally, Fei Yue slowly came to a stop.

She stretched out her arms in mid-air, her long silver-white hair flying wildly behind her, and her crimson demonic power continuously solidified and permeated the space, dragging everything around her into her realm.

The clouds gradually turned red, the sky became blood-red, and even the sunlight turned crimson, adding a touch of eerie and magnificent color to everything in sight.

The priestess's pupils contracted slightly.

Looking at Feiyue's figure, recalling the scene of Feiyue ruthlessly shattering their demonic and divine power, she remained silent for a moment: "I have long heard of the great reputation of the Lord of the Northern Mountains. Seeing you today, I can confirm that it is indeed well-deserved."

“Mizuko is right, I am no match for you, and Shinori may not be your match either.”

"I wonder if the two of us, working together, can fight against Miss Scarlet Moon?"

"You two teamed up against me?"

Feiyue paused for a moment.

She frowned and looked at the crimson and pale gold clouds in the distance behind her.

When she unleashed her realm, it enveloped the clouds and the sky, naturally bringing Mitsuko, Morikawa Yu, and Otamaru into it as well.

The clouds have a pale gold hue because they contain the power of Mitsuko's domain.

When the same space is invaded by the realms of multiple divine demons or the domain of the highest god, the power and rules within those realms and domains clash and counteract each other, and the space will present such a harmonious and complementary light.

Mitsuko stood among the clouds and nodded to the crimson moon.

Feiyue withdrew her gaze, looking at the figures of the priestess and Shenzhi, her heart filled with doubt.

Although the shrine maiden and the goddess could indeed make up for the difference in strength between them to some extent by joining forces, Mitsuko was still by her side.

Mitsuko is also a powerful divine being of the same age as her, and is the highest god of Kansai.

If they leave Mitsuko alone, she could wipe out everyone on the Oki Islands except for them with one hand.

Where do they get the confidence to leave Mitsuko alone?

Mizuko smiled slightly: "Lord Mizuki, I understand your thoughts, and I know you don't want to tell us what happened to you in Izumo, but I think it's better if you honestly tell us."

"As you just saw, Hiiyue is very strong. If it were a head-on fight, even you and Shenzhi combined might not be a match for Hiiyue."

"Besides Scarlet Moon, I'm here too. Do you really think your students and shikigami can handle me?"

"Aren't you underestimating me, the head priestess of Kansai, too much? Back then, your teacher's teacher's teacher... ah, I can't remember how many generations before her, but she should be the first priestess among you. Even though she was so powerful back then, she didn't dare to lay a finger on my Kansai, and kept backing down, giving Inaba and Hōki to me. Do you really think your student's strength can compare to that of the first priestess among you?"

The priestess chuckled coldly: "Heh, you don't need to remind me, of course I know about the events of the first generation."

Mitsuko: "You know?"

Suddenly, a sense of unease rose in Mitsuko's heart.

The priestess is not stupid.

Since she knows these things, she certainly wouldn't be so stubborn in this situation without any preparation. Although it's possible that the priestess is using a "false city strategy," she should know Hisui's personality.

Feiyue shows no mercy when facing enemies, and will take action regardless of whether the opponent is truly powerful or just putting on an act.

If she really is using an empty city ploy, then her fate will be dire.

Could it be that the priestess has a backup plan, one that could help her defeat the Crimson Moon?

Mitsuko narrowed her eyes.

The priestess nodded: "It seems you guessed it too, Lord Mitsuko."

"To tell you the truth, Shenzhi wasn't someone I invited to help me. She just happened to be here and was helping me out."

"I originally wanted to ask another deity for help."

"As for the identity of that deity, you should be able to guess. She had a conflict with you not long ago and just helped my student."

"She should be here soon."

Mitsuko's face stiffened: "You mean... the Priestess?"

If we're talking about someone who had a conflict with her before and who helped her student Hanami Yuki, then it can only be the Priestess Hime.

After the fall of Inari, the shrine maiden helped Aoro, the ancestral god of the Abe family and also the lord of the oni clan, rebel against her. After Morikawa Yu killed Aoro, she tried to take Morikawa Yu away, but failed because of Yoshiko's obstruction.

Just now, Morikawa Yu fell into Hanami Yuki's trap on Oki Island.

Chapter 588 You still say you're not an undercover agent?

Before they went to Uki Island, the shrine maiden asked the pheasant to remind them that something might happen on Uki Island and that they should go there to check it out.

As a result, after arriving there, Morikawa Yu accidentally fell into a trap and was dragged into the historical realm by the power, and it was only with great difficulty that he was able to get out.

According to the description of the shrine maiden, the princess shrine maiden is the most suspicious and likely.

Moreover, the Priestess Hime is indeed very powerful.
