I'm tied to Athena.

Li Yun looked at the only empty seat at the banquet, so he took Athena and the others over and took their seats.

This is the position closest to Amaterasu, and is also the position reserved for the greatest contributor.

As soon as Li Yun sat down, Shuten-doji beside him said to him, "You are really slow. I have been drinking for quite a while."

"Well, isn't this just the right time?" Li Yun chuckled.

When everyone was seated, Amaterasu stood up and said a lot of things, such as thank you all for your hard work, that she was wrong, and that they should work together in the future.

After that, the banquet officially began.

Everyone cheered with complete abandon. Although the gods were a little restrained due to Amaterasu's presence and did not dare to be as unbridled as the great demons, after a few drinks, they were completely excited.

Just like a spring, the harder it is pressed, the harder it will rebound.

If Amaterasu doesn't do anything, this group of suppressed gods will naturally go crazy and have fun, and may even be more powerful than the monsters.

"This banquet...is quite interesting." Li Yun touched his chin. A noisy banquet like this is what a banquet should be.

He looked up at Amaterasu who had been silent above him, and then he saw a strange look on her face.

Although he tried to act cold, Li Yun could still clearly see that Amaterasu was a little strange.

Is it because those guys are too presumptuous, and I want to speak but have to hold back...

He shook his head slightly, and then Li Yun no longer paid attention to Amaterasu.

However, Athena beside Li Yun looked a little strange. She narrowed her eyes and looked at Amaterasu quietly.

As expected, Amaterasu's gaze, which was originally looking forward, fell on Li Yun, and it was hidden so well that even Li Yun didn't notice it.

"What's going on with Amaterasu?"

Athena felt a little strange. The look in the eyes of the sun goddess when she looked at Li Yun was so struggling that even the goddess of wisdom could not guess what her situation was.

So Athena looked at Metis on the side.

The previous generation goddess of wisdom sensed the gaze of the current goddess of wisdom and looked over at once.

The moment their eyes met, their minds immediately understood each other.

However, even the two goddesses of wisdom could not guess a reasonable result, so they could only wait until the banquet was over to ask Li Yun.

Because it was a banquet for the gods, it lasted a whole day and ended in the evening.

When everyone left the temple, Li Yun and the others left with them.

Because Takama-ga-hara has not been rebuilt yet, the monsters can only rest in Nara for one night.

After finding a random inn to stay in, Li Yun planned to take a shower and rest. While he was about to take a shower and rest, Athena and Metis came to him and told him about Amaterasu.

"Is Amaterasu looking at me?" Li Yun was confused by what Athena and Metis said. "You must be looking at me wrongly, Athena. Amaterasu and I have only met three times, and I killed her once. How could she be looking at me?"

"My eyes are not wrong." Athena touched her chin, "Although she is looking at you, I don't think she likes you."

"That's right. The struggling expression and demeanor don't look like love at all." Metis nodded, "Athena and I think that Amaterasu's problem should be related to Tamamonomae."

"Do you care?" Li Yun was a little curious as he watched the two goddesses analyzing seriously. Since they didn't like it, they should relax. Why did they still care so much?

"A little bit." Although I don't think so, what if this struggle turns into submissiveness one day?

They have to nip the threat in the bud.

Li Yun, who didn't quite understand the goddesses' train of thought, didn't care anymore, "So what are you going to do?"

"Let's go look for Tamamonomae." Athena smiled, "We've already planned to look for her, but we'll be away for a few days, so we told you in advance."

"At your speed, how many days will it take to go back and forth?"

"The main thing is that we need to take Xiao Yuyi with us."

"....." Looking at the two goddesses in front of him, Li Yun suddenly felt that the matter of Amaterasu was just an excuse, and their real purpose was to take Xiao Yuyi to see Tamamonomae.

Children are very innocent. They will be nice to whoever is nice to them. In these few short days, Tamamonomae and Xiaoyu have established a deep relationship. At least Xiaoyu is willing to call Tamamonomae "Mom".

In recent days, although Xiao Yuyi looks the same as usual, Athena and the others who are with Xiao Yuyi all the time can see that the child misses Tamamonomae.

If the problem between Haori and Tamamonomae is not resolved, Haori might always be like this, and their plan to get Haori to call them mom will be delayed a lot.

She is worthy of being the goddess of wisdom. She can even come up with such an excuse.

"If you want to take Xiao Yuyi to capture Tamamonomae, just go ahead. I won't stop you. It's really unlike you to make excuses like this."

"Who lied to Xiao Yuyi a few days ago and said that Tamamonomae went to a very far place? The message you revealed is that no one else is allowed to see Tamamonomae."

"Is that what I meant?" Li Yun touched his head. "I'm just saying this according to the normal development of the story. And, from Xiao Yuyi's perspective, they are indeed very far apart."

"I won't talk to you anymore. Come on, take Xiao Yuyi to see Tamamonomae tomorrow morning." Athena and Metis turned around and left decisively.

The next morning, they took Xiao Yuyi and set off, and no one else knew about this except Li Yun.

When she didn't see them and Xiao Yuyi after getting up, Ishtar was the first to curiously ask where they had gone.

After getting the answer, they were stunned.

Athena and the others got there first.

On the other side, Athena and Metis, who had crossed most of Japan with their little feathered robe, landed on the mountain where Tamamonomae was.

Although Li Yun asked Tamamonomae to be responsible for restoring the land to its original appearance, Tamamonomae also has his own place to live.

But... I don't know what Tamamonomae was thinking. She moved her home from Nasuno to Mount Osore.

Chapter 466: The Goddess of Wisdom and the Fifth Beast

Mount Osore is a volcano located in Aomori Prefecture, the northernmost part of Honshu, Japan.

Because it is shrouded in the steam and sulfur stench coming out of the sulfur vents produced by the volcano, it is filled with a solemn atmosphere when viewed from a distance.

But at the edge of the crater lake formed in front is an endless, pure white sand beach that can give people a feeling of peace.

However, if you look closely, you will find many graves in that strange world that you don’t know whether it is hell or heaven.

Because this is the last place where ghosts who have lost their hiding places go, and it is the mountain that connects the living world and the underworld.

Perhaps the modern Mount Osore is just a simple mountain, but the current Mount Osore is a real place connecting the world and the underworld.

"Is this Mount Osore..." Athena held Xiao Yuyi in her arms and looked down at the terrifying place filled with a murderous aura.

“It’s a terrible environment.”

"We don't seem to have the right to say this. After all, our territory is the underworld..." Metis complained silently, then flew down from the sky.

Stepping on the white sand beach, the two walked towards the only cabin on the beach.

However, before she had taken two steps, Xiao Yuyi seemed to sense something, and broke free from Athena's arms and ran quickly towards the cabin.

"Xiao Yuyi." Athena looked at Xiao Yuyi's anxious look and couldn't help but remind her, "Run slower."

"I didn't expect you to have this side of you." Metis looked at her 'daughter's' motherly look and couldn't help but tease her.

"When you say "I", it's the same as saying "myself". " After gently retorting the other party, Athena followed Xiao Yuyi's footsteps.

At this time, Xiao Yuyi had already run to the front of the house, and used her little hands to push the wooden door open.

But before she could exert any force, the door opened, and Xiao Yuyi pounced on the person who opened the door.

"Little Yui?" Seeing the small body that only reached the base of her thighs, Tamamonomae's voice of surprise suddenly rang out.

She picked up Xiao Yuyi, her pretty face full of surprise, "Why are you here?"

"Mom, mom..." Xiao Yuyi grabbed Tamamonomae's face with her chubby little hands, and her tender little face showed a smile from the heart.

"Good boy." Gently rubbing Xiao Yuyi's head, Tamamonomae then saw Athena and Metis walking towards him.

She suddenly understood, then turned sideways, invited the two into the house, and poured them a glass of water.

"Sorry, these are all I have here. Please make do with them."

"Water will be enough." Athena took a sip of water and said, "Because Xiao Yuyi has been missing you these days, I brought her here to see you."

"Thank you. I thought I would have to wait hundreds of years before I could see Xiao Yuyi again." Tamamonomae thanked Athena and Metis from the bottom of her heart.

"But speaking of it, why do you want to settle down here?" Metis was a little curious. Even if Tamamonomae settled down in Heian-kyo, no one would dare to say anything, so why did he choose a special place?

"Maybe it's because it's quieter here." Tamamonomae pointed out the window and said, "Besides me, no one else will come here."

"Even if there are ghosts or something occasionally, it won't bother me."

"Are you the kind of person who likes quietness?" Athena was a little surprised. From the information she had obtained, Tamamonomae was not the kind of monster who liked quietness.

"I didn't like it before, but now I like it. Even if it's a demon, it will eventually change." After saying that, Tamamonomae didn't seem to want to continue this topic, so he asked, "How long do you plan to rest here this time?"

"It will take a few days. We will fix the house ourselves."

"I am the master here, how can I let you do it yourself?" Tamamonomae seemed to have thought of something, blinked, and asked, "Is there anything you like to eat?"

"Anything is fine. We don't care."

"That's good....."

Although Tamamonomae and Athena had fought each other and even killed each other, both wanting to kill each other, this was indeed the first time they sat down and chatted in such a friendly manner.

Perhaps because they had fought and reconciled before, this first chat was very good for both parties.

However, Athena did not forget the purpose of her visit.

"You are talking about Amaterasu..." Tamamonomae told the two the reason for the incident, and then said: "Don't worry, I know Amaterasu's character very well. She is not the kind of person who will be attracted to boys. For her, her position as the head of the gods is more important."

"....." Looking at Tamamonomae's confident look, Athena and the others looked at each other. Is this considered a flag?

"But as long as we watch carefully, nothing should go wrong." Athena nodded. Amaterasu and Liyun had almost no interactions. As long as the two were separated, things would calm down over time.

In other words, this matter can be nipped in the bud.

On the other side, in the temple of Takamagahara, Amaterasu is struggling with her feelings for Tamamonomae.

Yesterday's banquet brought her and Li Yun closer together, and because of this, Tamamonomae's feelings continued to grow in her body, and her condition, which had originally improved a little, became even worse.

Whenever he wasn't paying attention, Li Yun's figure would flash through his mind. His every move and every word seemed to be engraved in his body.

That feeling made Amaterasu very uncomfortable.

Damn it, I shouldn't have invited Li Yun to the party earlier. Even if I get a bad reputation, it's better than this.

On the other side, after Athena and Metis took Xiao Yuyi away, Li Yun and the others had breakfast and returned to Oeyama.

Shuten-doji said that it was a rare opportunity to get together with other great demons, so he had to drink again, and therefore he did not go back with them.

To be honest, Li Yun doesn't quite understand ghosts. Although alcohol is good, it is not something that is particularly addictive. Does it have a special attack bonus against ghosts?

The group quickly returned to Dajiang Mountain, but before they could sit down to rest, something happened.

"Genji?" Looking at the little demon in front of him who was reporting, Li Yun was a little stunned. Why did Genji come to see him?

Although it was a bit strange, Li Yun still let Genji's people come up.

After seeing Li Yun, the elder of the Genji clan greeted him very respectfully, and then said with a hint of anxiety on his face:

"My lord, although this is too rude, we can ask you to take action now."

"I beg you to go to Genji and seal the runaway demon sword!

Chapter 467: Red Shadow Demon Sword Princess

As mentioned before, the Genji people relied on the power of the Yamata no Orochi to create many war weapons, and these war weapons were the demon swords.

The demon sword is forged after the power of ghosts and gods is injected into the human body. However, once the power of ghosts and gods is injected into the human body, the consciousness will be eroded by the power of ghosts and gods, and finally transformed into a killing weapon that only knows how to obey orders.

This is a very inhumane practice.

However, for the ambitious Genji, this inhumanity was nothing.

They conducted countless experiments with the help of the power of the Yamata no Orochi, and finally successfully forged more than a dozen magic swords with the power of ghosts and gods.

And those humans who serve as the bodies of the demon sword are also possessed by the demon sword.

When Tamamonomae was cleaning up the world, Genji threw all the dozen or so swords he had made into the battle. Although several of them were lost in the battle, and even the remaining ones were severely damaged, they still had the power of the Yamata no Orochi, so it was not a problem to repair the remaining swords.

However, this is where the problem lies.

Because the power of the Yamata no Orochi is extremely difficult to control, and the demon swords that have obtained the power of the Yamata no Orochi have become difficult to control due to injuries, it will be very difficult to reforge them.

At the beginning, Genji spent a lot of effort to forge a demon sword, and then used the power of the demon sword to control it, and continued to forge one sword after another.
