I, Tsugumi Yuichiro, must do something

But this time he sent Ah Dai along, so there was no need to worry about anything happening.

Moreover, that place is very close to the village, and he can get there in no time.

“The children here are so well-behaved.”

Seeing many children running directly to the farmland after practice, Kagome couldn't help but sigh slightly.

Compared to these poor children, she didn't know how happy she was.

Chapter 22: The Man in Black Robe, the Confronting Girls [Second Update]

In the dark valley.

Moss and vines grow densely among the trees, and from time to time you can see white bones scattered under the big trees.

Nifa Jie Luo had a ferocious expression on her face and struggled violently, but no matter how hard she struggled she could not get rid of the pair of hands that were tightly gripping her neck.

Those were a pair of extremely slender hands, shrouded in a thick demonic aura.

"Tell me, is the news about the Four Souls Jade true or false?"

The owner of the hand was hidden in a black robe. His voice sounded very young, but it was particularly cold.

"Ahem...it's true."

"I can sense the special aura of the Four Souls Jade."

With no room for escape, Nifa Jieluo gave up struggling. She coughed a few times and then told the black-robed man in front of her truthfully what she knew.

After learning that the Shikon Jade had appeared, she wanted to snatch it, but was almost hacked to death by the strange mechanical figurine left behind by the man named Yoriichi Tsugikuni.

Later, when Nifa Jie Luo realized that she could not take the Four Souls Jade by her own strength, she came up with the idea of spreading the news of the Four Souls Jade's appearance and then looking for an opportunity.

But what she didn't expect was that she was targeted by the black-robed man in front of her.

After encountering the man in black robe, she didn't even have the chance to fight back. Her neck was grabbed and she couldn't move at all.

The power of the black-robed man's hand even penetrated into her body, crushing all the demonic power she had gathered.

"It seems you didn't lie."

The black-robed man looked into Nifajieluo's eyes, then clenched his right hand suddenly, and then a huge demonic power emanated from the black-robed man's hand.

Nifa Jie Luo originally thought that he would be let go if he told the truth.

He was crushed to death.

"Maple Leaf Village, I haven't been back for almost fifty years."

The man in black robe stroked the comb in his hand. He looked through the mottled shadows of the trees, as if he was recalling some things in the past.

"It seems we need to send someone there to investigate the situation and see if the Four Souls Jade there is real."

The man in black robe pondered for a while, then turned into a ball of black mist and disappeared.

. . . . . .

"Is there anything to eat?"

Inuyasha, who has a keen sense of smell, felt a little angry when he saw Yoriichi Tsugakuni and Kagome sitting on the steps of the Demon Exorcist Society and eating rice balls.

He hooked his feet on the eaves and looked at Yuichiro Tsugikoku.

Compared to Granny Kaede and Kagome, Inuyasha is more willing to be closer to Yoriichi Tsugikoku.

Although Tsugikuni Yoriichi looks like his annoying brother, he has a cold face.

But he is not like his brother, who always speaks in a condescending and preaching manner.

"And a rice ball."

Yoriichi Tsugikoku took a rice ball from the food box on the side and handed it to Inuyasha.

Inuyasha often looks arrogant.

However, Yoriichi Tsugikuni, who left the Big Rabbit Mark on Inuyasha's body, knew it.

Inuyasha often patrols with Dai at night.

"Thanks. I'll treat you to something delicious next time."

Inuyasha quickly disappeared with the rice ball in his hand.

"You young people should get closer to each other."

"More and more people have been visiting the village recently. I'm going to take a look."

Grandma Kaede, who had just taken Coral out, came back again. After saying something to Yoriichi Tsugakuin and Kagome, she slowly left.

"I've heard a lot about you."

"Please give me more advice in the future."

Coral greeted Yuichiro Tsugakuni and learned a lot about Yuichiro Tsugakuni from Grandma Kaede.

However, as a demon-hunting genius in the demon-hunting village, she was somewhat curious to see what Tsugikuni Yoriichi was capable of.

"I heard from Grandma Feng that the Four Souls Jade is with you."

"If you feel you are unable to protect the Four Souls Jade, I can do it for you."

The appearance of the Four Souls Jade once almost led to the destruction of the Demon-Hunting Village. The Four Souls Jade was given to Kikyo by her grandfather.

So Coral naturally knew how dangerous the Four Souls Jade was.

This time she came here on behalf of the Demon-Exterminating Village to lend a helping hand to Ji Guoyuan.

This is to resolve the crisis that Maple Leaf Village may encounter.

It is also to uphold the concept of fighting for civilians that the Demon-Slaying Village has been adhering to for thousands of years.

"Ah."

"But it's not necessary for now."

Although Coral's tone was very direct, she even had some doubts about her own abilities.

However, Yoshikazu Tsugakuni didn't care too much.

He also heard that Coral meant no harm.

"Really not necessary?"

"Don't be so stubborn."

Looking at the serious look of Yuichiro Tsugikoku, Sango shook her head.

But she didn't say anything else.

Now that she has arrived in Maple Leaf Village, even if Tsugumi Yoriichi is unable to protect the Shikon Jewel, she can help to recover it.

It’s not a big deal.

"Yuichi is very powerful."

"I believe he can protect the Four Souls Jade well."

Kagome was a little annoyed by Sango's somewhat arrogant tone.

She looked at Coral and expressed her opinion seriously.

"I'll see."

Coral didn't say much. She pulled back Yunmu, who was squatting beside A'dai and looking at him curiously.

The group of demon hunters is actually not a very large circle, and it has always been passed down by a few families.

Yuichiro Tsugikoku is a completely unfamiliar person.

Moreover, in Coral's impression, there didn't seem to be any demon exorcists in the Jiguo family.

In addition, although Ji Guoyuan killed the centipede demon woman with one blow, there was still a large group of monsters.

But those monsters are actually not that strong.

Therefore, Sango believes that it remains to be seen how strong Tsugikuni Yoshiichi is, and she remains skeptical.

Also.

The Four Soul Jade is really too important.

As a member of a fighting family that protects civilians, Coral does not want to see the huge chaos caused by the fight for the Four Souls Jade.

That's why she has so many doubts about the fact that Yoriichi Tsugakuni possesses the Shikon Jewel.

"You'll see."

Seeing her friend being looked down upon, Kagome was naturally a little dissatisfied.

She responded to Coral bluntly.

"Okay, no more arguing."

"We will be teammates for a long time."

Looking at Sango and Kagome who were arguing with each other, Tsugumi Yoshiichi separated the two with a faint smile.

He didn't want to see any rift between the two of them because of this.

"If you ask me, just give me the Four Souls Jade, and all the troubles will be gone."

Hearing the noise here, Inuyasha came over from the big tree. He hung upside down and looked at himself, Yoriichi Tsugakuin and the other two, and once again put forward the suggestions he had always made.

"Shut up!"

Sango and Kagome both rejected Inuyasha's request.

After looking at each other, the two turned around and ignored each other.

Chapter 23: Taking the Blame, the Same Type of People [3rd Update]

"Just shut up."

Inuyasha stopped talking and disappeared again.

night.

Because of Coral's arrival, Grandma Feng took out her collection of sake and treated her to dinner.

In a sense, Grandma Feng can be considered half a disciple of the demon-hunting village.

After all, her sister Kikyo had once studied under the old witch in the demon-killing village.

Yoriichi Tsugikuni, Kagome, Grandma Kaede, and Sango sat together to eat, while Inuyasha squatted outside the door with food, and sat on the steps with A-Dai and Kirara.

It’s not that Grandma Kaede doesn’t let Inuyasha enter the house, but he himself doesn’t want to be too close to everyone.

Inuyasha instinctively doesn't want to get close to strangers.

In the past, the only person he could call a friend was Kikyo.

After Kikyo's death, he no longer had any friends.

The atmosphere at the dinner table was a little quiet.

Because Kagome and Sango were a little angry with each other, no one spoke.

Everyone was just eating quietly.

"Have a drink with my old lady."

"Why are you two acting a little weird?"

Grandma Kaede looked at Kagome and Sango, who turned their faces to the side. She was a little confused about what was going on.

After pouring some wine for each of them, she looked at Inuyasha outside the door and asked, "Did you make them angry, you bastard?"

"..."

Inuyasha was happily eating food outside the door.

Then he felt as if there was a black pot on his back. The delicious food in his chopsticks instantly became bland and tasteless.
