Look carefully, this is how realm is used!

Having finished the tea in the cup early, Dou Ya Wang, who placed it aside, assured confidently.

"Thanks, but it wouldn't be good for me to stay too long."

Shen Fuyuan thanked him and then said.

"why?"

Dou Ya Wang, who did not expect the twist, could not help but become curious about this.

"After all, someone saved me when I was about to die, and it was a witch who slayed demons and monsters."

"If little Kikyo knew I wasn't around, she would probably cry and make a fuss. So pitiful~"

Shen Fuyuan looked relaxed and fabricated non-existent situations.

In fact, as long as the Demon Sealing Pearl is obtained, the safety level will not be much different if it is recovered in the palace or gap of King Douya.

In that case, why not use the opportunity to stay by Kikyo's side in the name of repaying a favor, and satisfy your own happy heart in the process.

Chapter 147 This is Shen Fuyuan’s victory!

After reminiscing about the past with King Dou Ya, Shen Fu Yuan left without staying long.

After not seeing each other for more than a hundred years, from an ordinary person's perspective, the friendship between the two sides would not be completely wiped out, but it would definitely fade away.

However, this is not the case. At most, the attitude may be a little cold at the beginning, but it will quickly warm up after the discussion starts.

The reason for this is that Shen Fuyuan and Dou Ya Wang are both monsters, and their concept of immortality is obviously different from that of ordinary people. More than a hundred years is only equivalent to a period of absence.

Another thing worth mentioning is that Izayoi is not dead now. She has turned from a human into a monster.

All of this was done by Toga-oh and Izayoi's own wishes.

Although the potential he carries is not high, Izayoi is already satisfied that he can break through the lifespan limit of his original race and spend more time with the people he cares about.

In this world and era, becoming a monster is not as difficult as you might imagine.

Specific transformation rituals, pure negative emotions, awakening the monster blood in the body, etc., these are all ways to be inhuman.

However, becoming a monster and becoming a powerful monster are two different concepts, and it is impossible to achieve both in one step.

At least in all the years that Shen Fuyuan has been traveling, he has never seen anyone who is invincible at the beginning after changing their race. They have become a lot stronger than their predecessor, but it has mostly turned into potential to be explored in the future.

Shen Fuyuan had no special thoughts about Izayoi's actions except for a sigh. After all, he had also transformed from a human into a non-human, and had accepted this change after living for more than three hundred years.

The previous Shen Fu Yuan was not named Shen Fu Yuan, he was just an ordinary human being, but the current Shen Fu Yuan is named Shen Fu Yuan, and he is also a monster of the realm.

Compared with the life as a non-human, the traces left as a human are somewhat insufficient, so that Shen Fuyuan often forgets the latter and acts with the attitude of the former.

As to whether this is a good thing or not, outsiders are not qualified to judge; only the parties involved are qualified.

"It's another beautiful day, little Kikyo."

Near noon, Shen Fuyuan emerged from the gap and greeted Kikyo who was preparing lunch.

"Morning has passed, and... you seem to be in a lot more danger. How did you do that?"

Sensing the presence, Kikyo couldn't take her eyes off the scent and frowned slightly.

Compared to the sick Shen Fuyuan yesterday, he is in much better spirits now.

"After being together for so long, Kikyo-chan still treats me as an enemy. This is really hurtful to the youkai."

After Shen Fuyuan finished speaking, he covered his face with his folding fan and started crying uncontrollably.

"Excluding the time spent in a coma, it will only be about a week for you and me after we wake up."

Faced with more teasing elements of the divine talisman, the indifferent Platycodon gave the correct number of days.

Not to mention the four-month coma period, in just a short week, Kikyo must have had a very big heart to be able to get along with Shen Fuyuan without any barriers.

Kikyo wasn't sure, but it was impossible within a week. At most, it was that strange sense of trust that slightly narrowed the distance between the two.

There is still a long way to go to get along with people like Douya Wang.

"Hasn't Kikyo ever heard of this saying?"

"Some people can become close friends after just three days of knowing each other, while others remain distant even after three years of knowing each other."

"As for Kikyo-chan and I, we can become friends in just three days."

Shen Fuyuan put down the folding fan, without a tear on her face, and said with a smile.

"Talk in your sleep tonight. You haven't answered me yet."

As if there were no extra emotions, Kikyo's expression remained unchanged and she brought up her question again.

"You're so unlovable! I've always praised you in front of my friends, saying you're sensible and considerate."

"If he knew how you were acting now and thought I was lying to him, he would definitely cry and make a fuss. So pitiful~"

The person he was talking to changed from Douya Wang to Kikyo, and the content of Shenfu Yuan's words changed accordingly, but what remained unchanged was his calm expression when he fabricated lies.

Anyway, there is no special reason why Touga and Kikyo cannot meet, and Shenfuyuan can make up whatever story he wants.

This is Shen Fuyuan’s victory!

Although Kikyo is a teenage girl, her brain is quick and she knows that the friend mentioned by Shen Fuyuan is the key, especially since the other party disappeared for most of the day yesterday.

Combining the information obtained, Kikyo quickly guessed the truth.

No one stipulates that monsters must kill each other. They can also form alliances or make friends with each other because they like each other.

Kikyo could accept the appearance of one or two monsters on the same side to help the down-and-out Shenfu Yuan.

After getting what she wanted to know from Shen Fuyuan's words, Kikyo ignored him and continued to make lunch.

The actual development did not deviate too much from what Kikyo had expected. Yesterday, he got the magic talisman of the Demon Sealing Pearl and stayed in the gap to absorb the resentment. His injuries have healed a little.

Shen Fuyuan calculated that with enough resentment in the Demon Sealing Pearl, it would take him about two months to recover his strength to his peak, which passed in the blink of an eye.

Once his injuries heal, he will prepare for a breakthrough, adding another great monster to the world, and the progress that was stagnant many years ago can continue.

When Kikyo was almost done with lunch, Feng, who had been out playing, just came back, and they officially had lunch soon after.

Kikyo only made two portions. This was Shen Fuyuan's initiative, and the reason was mentioned before.

Since he didn't need to eat, there was no need for him to compete with a big and a little girl for food.

As the village's shrine maiden, Kikyo receives some of her food and drink from the villagers, but her living conditions are still limited.

Rather, it is said that in this era, even the things that the nobility can enjoy are not as good as those enjoyed by ordinary families in modern times.

The purpose of Shenfuyuan is to repay a favor, not to seek revenge.

He would just say it verbally occasionally, but he would not cause any trouble to Kikyo through his actions.

Although he had no idea how to repay Shen Fuyuan's kindness, he could stay here.

If you have no clue, just keep thinking. You have plenty of time, so it doesn't matter.

Shen Fuyuan, who had not eaten, did not leave the house. He stared quietly at the two girls in front of him, which made the atmosphere a little weird.

After finally finishing his meal, Feng, who had not yet fully adapted to having a monster staring at him while he was eating, went out again to play with his friends as agreed.

“It’s nice to have children who are carefree.”

Looking at Feng who was leaving, Shen Fuyuan didn't seem to notice the atmosphere during lunch, or he didn't care.

His eyes were more focused on Kikyo and much less on Kaede. The discomfort was actually the latter's illusion.

Shen Fuyuan thought that the rest of the day would pass peacefully as usual, but in the afternoon, Kikyo received a commission from other villages.

The commission was simply to eliminate demons.

A monster that appeared from nowhere was wreaking havoc in the village, causing loss of life and property.

Villages that have no one to exorcise demons can only send people to find the nearest Platycodon, entrusting her to exorcise the demons and then give her a reward.

Kikyo accepted the offer and looked at the weather. Without hesitation, she picked up her main bow and quiver, made some preparations, and went out.

Shen Fuyuan, who was hiding in the gap, followed quietly. Even if Kikyo was riding a horse, he had no pressure at all.

"Speaking of which, following Kikyo around every day doesn't seem a bit strange... It should be fine. I'm here to protect her safety."

Suppressing the thought of being a stalker, Shen Fuyuan followed Kikyo smoothly all the way to the village where the commission was issued.

Chapter 148: A Man and a Demon Seemingly in Conflict

Kikyo rode at full speed all the way to the village where the commission was issued. During the ride, she used her bow and arrows to kill several sneak attacking monsters. The girl's nonchalant look made Shen Fuyuan, who was in the gap, show a hint of approval.

After all, Kikyo is only fourteen years old, which is a minor in modern times, not even a high school student.

But at this age, she possesses extraordinary spiritual power, especially her own magic-breaking attribute, which makes Kikyo even more powerful when working.

Even if the magic talisman had recovered somewhat, based on his current level, he would never want to take a direct hit if he could avoid it.

As long as the monster is not too strong, Kikyo should be able to complete this commission without any harm.

It is difficult to judge how strong Platycodon is without personal experience. In addition, the demons she eliminated were killed instantly, so she showed very little.

But when Kikyo just arrived at the village entrance, before she had time to greet the village chief who came to greet her, the target she had to eliminate this time appeared and destroyed houses and farmland.

"Hiss-!"

In the violently shaking earth, it looked like a giant caterpillar, making a sound like a poisonous snake spitting out its core.

It has a bloated gray furry body, a single horn on its head, a dozen compound eyes below, and a chrysanthemum-shaped mouth.

Just a slap of its tail on the ground caused houses within a dozen meters to collapse. Turbid liquid came out of its mouth, and all the crops in the affected fields withered. The smell in the air made people dizzy.

"That fat bug monster is here again!"

"Everyone run! Get away from this monster!"

"Where's the village chief? Where's the village chief?"

"Someone come and take this monster away! My family is still in the house! Help!"

For a moment, the village was in chaos and people were in panic.

After discovering the situation in the village, Kikyo rushed into the village without getting off his horse, leaving the panicked village chief behind.

When they got closer to the disaster site and saw the wanton insect demon, Platycodon tightened the reins with a serious expression to control the frightened horse under him.

The insect demon came too suddenly, and Platycodon just happened to arrive in the village, so the villagers who did not retreat in advance had already become victims.

Seeing the insect demon leaning over and about to eat an old man who was exhausted and unconscious due to the poison gas, Kikyo immediately took action.

Nocking an arrow, drawing the bow, aiming.

put--!

Channel the spiritual energy into the arrow and then shoot it.

In the blink of an eye, an arrow containing spiritual power was shot out, and the arrowhead pierced into the body of the insect demon.

"boom--!"

After a flash of holy white light, the subsequent explosion knocked the six-meter-tall insect demon away. It flew a few meters into the air before crashing to the ground, causing a cloud of thick smoke and dust.

Due to its weight, a house less than two meters away from the insect monster could not withstand the shock wave and collapsed.

"Although it was a hasty attack, it was able to withstand the Demon-Breaking Arrow and survive. This monster is unlike those small fry before."

The smoke and dust could not block Shen Fuyuan's sight. He saw that the fallen insect demon was missing a large part of its body. Although it was covered in blood and flesh, it was not completely dead.

Shen Fuyuan, who felt that it was worth watching, couldn't help but widen the gap and stick half of his body out, becoming a strange sight in the air.

"The people have been saved, but it's not time to relax, Kikyo-chan."

Following the angle of the divine talisman, he saw that the insect demon did not get up immediately. It moved its broken body closer to the collapsed house.

It smelled the scent of fresh flesh and blood, which was only two meters away from it. As long as it ate this flesh and blood, it would be able to recover some of its injuries and increase its chances of escaping successfully.

Yes, the insect demon is not without intelligence. Kikyo's attack instantly made it know who is strong and who is weak. In order not to lose its life, running away is the right choice.

At this time, Kikyo also noticed the insect demon's movements.

Behind the ruined house, a strong young man lay unconscious on the ground, unaware that he was in danger.
