But it is indeed true that the great Yin-Yang Master Che killed several terrifying demons and ghosts that originally lived in the city.

Honda Tadakatsu frowned deeply, not understanding the meaning behind Uesugi Tetsu's words.

But after thinking for a few seconds, he didn't dwell on the pointless thoughts.

Even though those terrifying demons were already dead, the remaining lesser demons in the city were quickly eliminated by that Onmyoji's methods...

Even if all the demons and ghosts in the city die, the plague that exists in people will not disappear.

People who get sick will still die.

—As time went by, the residents of Yoshida Castle, who had just recovered from their joy, also became aware of the problem.

It is an indisputable fact that only two people entered Yoshida Castle.

There were no doctors, no medicine, and no logistical supplies...

Having contracted an unknown disease, and with their health deteriorating day by day, is there any hope for them?

Thus, Uesugi Tetsu could sense that amidst the positive emotions that filled the city, a sense of bewilderment and despair was gradually rising.

"Cough cough, we still have... cough cough, can we save them...?"

"That's a great Onmyoji who can control thunder, surely he has a way to save us."

"The Great Yin-Yang Master isn't a physician, and besides, he's just one person. How could he possibly save so many people in the city?"

"In the end, will we still die?"

"Mom, I don't want to die..."

Two not-so-tall horses slowly made their way towards the Matsudaira family's location.

This was so that people around him could see him and Imagawa Yoshimoto clearly and have an impression of their general appearance.

Hearing the continuous sighs from within the city, Uesugi Tetsuya suddenly activated his inner energy and spoke out of nowhere.

"My lightning magic can only be used with the authorization of Lord Imagawa—because my ability to manipulate lightning was borrowed from the gods."

When Yoshimoto Imagawa saw the lightning in Yu Guangzhong's eyes suddenly brighten after passing by her, a hint of doubt appeared in his eyes.

Che-jun, what are you doing?

At that moment, she heard Uesugi Tetsu say in a clear voice: "And this Lord Imagawa Yoshimoto is the one who bestows blessings from the gods!"

Yoshimoto Imagawa froze in mid-air, his hand holding the reins still.

A person blessed by the gods?

Chejun never said anything like that to her.

She never knew that she was some kind of ethereal benefactor.

Even though Imagawa Yoshimoto had doubts in her heart, she did not show them now. She simply maintained her indifferent appearance of not speaking or turning her head, and continued to stare silently ahead.

"—This scene is the best proof of that."

To the residents, the faint, barely visible sparks of electricity that originally emanated from Uesugi Tetsuya were now just faint.

After passing by Imagawa Yoshimoto, they immediately transformed into almost blinding, winding bolts of lightning, rumbling as they hurtled towards the sick and suffering members of his family.

It was as if they were soldiers who had been granted permission to be fully armed.

Ordinary people who witnessed this scene were stunned.

Under the combined influence of reality and the guidance of the soul imprint, the people on both sides of the street immediately believed what Uesugi Tetsu had said.

Faced with Imagawa Yoshimoto, the legendary "blesser of the gods" and their ruler, many people immediately rushed to their doorsteps and knelt down with their relatives where she could see them.

The people believed it without a doubt.

There's nothing you can do if you don't believe it.

Because they are about to die from multiple illnesses.

Now that this only hope has appeared before them, what else can they do but seize it?

Thus, surrounded by kneeling crowds on both sides of the road, Uesugi Tetsuya and Imagawa Yoshimoto took a full forty minutes to reach the Matsudaira family's door.

His plan was very successful.

In that brief hour or so, few of the Yoshida Castle residents paid any attention to Uesugi Tetsuya anymore; instead, they were all muttering things like "May Lord Imagawa bless us."

Uesugi Tetsu lowered his hand, signaling the lightning to disappear and halting the Five Thunder Technique.

He could already see a dozen or so people, led by a middle-aged man, wearing clothes with the same family crest, at the entrance of the Matsudaira family's house.

Those were probably retainers of the Matsudaira family who came to receive them.

He used his internal energy to transmit his voice: "Lord Yiyuan, say something to your people."

Imagawa Yoshimoto pulled on the reins and sat on the horse, thinking for a moment.

As the ruler of the Three Rivers, she naturally knew what to say and how to say it.

To claim to be a benefactor of some deity... pshaw, what a boastful statement.

I don't know what Chejun is thinking. Isn't he just putting her in a very difficult position?

She glanced unhappily at Uesugi Tetsuya before speaking.

“People of Yoshida Castle, there is no need to worry. The demon has been eliminated today, and from tomorrow onwards... the sick will be cured.”

Amplified by her inner energy, her indifferent voice resonated throughout every corner.

"In the name of Imagawa Yoshimoto, and in the name of the God who bestows blessings, I assure everyone that after the next sun rises, no one will die from the diseases brought by these monsters."

She emphasized the words "the one who bestows blessings from the gods".

Having said that, Imagawa Yoshimoto closed his mouth again.

Then, Uesugi Tetsu heard a deafening roar of cheers that rose from every corner of Yoshida Castle, accompanied by countless cries, screams, and incredulous exclamations.

And if that's not possible...

Naturally impossible.

If he didn't have confidence, how could he have allowed Imagawa Yoshimoto to say such things?

Uesugi Tetsu nodded to the girl whose eyes revealed displeasure, causing her to turn her head back with a slight surprise.

Honda Tadataka, who had been stunned for a moment after hearing this, also walked up with a hint of disbelief.

"Lord Imagawa, Lord Che."

The moment Imagawa Yoshimoto's gaze fell upon him, he saw him and his retainers immediately kneel down with a thud, their faces filled with deep remorse.

I'm so sorry!!!

Honda Tadakatsu bowed his head deeply at the entrance and said, word by word, "We have accomplished nothing, handing over Yoshida Castle to others!"

"nowadays……"

Imagawa Yoshimoto shook his head, interrupting him: "Raise your head."

She said calmly,

"This is not your fault. It was the sudden appearance of those demons carrying the plague that made me think so much. Even I didn't take them seriously at first."

Therefore, he can atone for his crime by performing good deeds.

Looking down at the Matsudaira clan retainers who were fortunate enough not to have been slaughtered by the demons, Imagawa Yoshimoto instructed: "In the next few days, the army led by Motonobu will take over Yoshida Castle and complete the follow-up matters."

"The Onmyoji Che and I will continue our journey towards the West Three Rivers, striving to bring this matter to an end as soon as possible."

Leaving in a few days?

Honda Tadakatsu opened his mouth: "Then these diseases..."

"Tomorrow morning, I will distribute the medicine and talismans for Yi Yuan Gong."

Uesugi Tetsu said calmly,

"Relieve the symptoms first, then resolve the problem."

Honda Tadakatsu stared in awe at the legendary, incredibly mysterious Onmyoji.

The claim that the disease was cured in one day was actually true?

This, this is incredible...

Before anyone could speak, Uesugi Tetsu continued, "Could you prepare a quiet room first? I need to prepare medicine to treat those patients as soon as possible; time is of the essence."

—The one-hour time limit for the Four-Tailed Fox's talent "Rage" is almost up; there are only three or four minutes left.

It is not advisable to expose this weakened state to others.

Honda Tadakatsu, kneeling on the ground, readily agreed, revealing a genuine and undisguised joy.

After receiving Imagawa Yoshimoto's approval, he quickly stood up and led the way.

"My lords, please follow me."

Uesugi Tetsu quickly followed behind him.

Imagawa Yoshimoto felt that Uesugi Tetsuya was acting strangely all of a sudden, and followed behind him without saying anything.

In just over a minute, Honda Tadakatsu opened the sliding door, revealing a spacious and quiet room that had been uninhabited for a long time.

"My lords, is this place suitable?"

Uesugi Tetsu glanced at the approaching time limit out of the corner of his eye and hummed in agreement: "Let's do it here."

Honda Tadakatsu bowed again: "If needed, please feel free to call upon me."

After Honda Tadakatsu left, Uesugi Tetsuya spoke to the tiny pig at his feet.

"Lord Whale Three, would you please stay at the door for the time being?"

He rolled his eyes and swaggered toward the courtyard gate not far away: "Being a gatekeeper? I'm very good at that."

"Thank you."

Uesugi Tetsu stepped across the threshold just before the final deadline, then turned around and slammed the sliding door shut.

But as soon as he closed the door, he realized that Yoshimoto Imagawa, who had taken off his helmet, had also quietly followed him in.

He opened his mouth, then looked down at the girl who was also looking up at him, about to say something.

"Lord Yiyuan, how did you get in here..."

Before he could finish speaking, Uesugi Tetsuya, completely powerless, slammed his head into Imagawa Yoshimoto.

Chapter 192 Imagawa Yoshimoto's lap pillow, the Hundred-Eyed Demon stunned by an eyeball, and the delightful gain of soul points.

Snapped!

The two of them fell heavily to the ground.

Imagawa Yoshimoto quickly opened her arms and embraced Uesugi Tetsuya, but she did nothing more than that.

Because the situation came so suddenly, she was afraid that she might accidentally hurt Uesugi Tetsuya.

Imagawa Yoshimoto, who was pinned to the ground, looked up at Uesugi Tetsu, who was pale and barely breathing in his arms, and asked him urgently.

"Che-jun, what's wrong?"

Uesugi Tetsuya, caught by the sturdy armor, murmured, unable to utter a word.

Upon seeing this, Imagawa Yoshimoto's pupils contracted slightly.

She never imagined that Uesugi Tetsuya, who was chasing down all the demons in Yoshida Castle with lightning just minutes before, would be so weak now.

Surprisingly, he couldn't even speak.

—Because this time, in his "angry" state, Uesugi Tetsuya squandered all of his internal energy and spiritual power, leaving not a single trace behind.

So although all attributes will only drop to "5" after the rage state ends, for Uesugi Tetsuya now, it is no different from when all attributes are "1".

They would be even weaker.

Because the overdraft was too severe.

Imagawa Yoshimoto immediately reached out and touched his face, discovering that Uesugi Tetsuya couldn't even maintain his internal energy circulation.

Clever as she was, she immediately connected the current situation with Uesugi Tetsuya's somewhat strangely urgent actions earlier.
