Tamamo-no-Mae smiled secretly when she saw my attitude; at that moment, it felt like the entire sealed land lit up.

Her face was as white as snow, her lips as red as pearls.

The wine's color fades, her rosy cheeks grow pale; she longs to speak of parting, her brows lowered in sorrow.

Bright eyes, a gentle smile, a shy desire to speak—that kind of beauty strikes straight to the heart. It's the feeling of what you consider the most beautiful thing. It must be the so-called "face of all beings"—what you see is what you perceive as the most beautiful.

Depend on

That's incredible! What was the last thing that sealed him away? How could it bring itself to do that in a situation like this?

At the very least, he should be an enlightened monk who can see through the illusions of all beings; otherwise, even if he is not tempted, he will unconsciously be unable to harbor hostility towards her.

While trying to distract herself with a jumble of random thoughts, she quickly instructed Tamamo-no-Mae, "First, recover your strength, then gather some reasonably powerful yokai and await my next orders. For now, remain hidden and avoid attracting the attention of the Eastern Yi government."

Then he quickly ran away in a disheveled state; otherwise, he might have made a fool of himself.

Seeing my slightly disheveled figure, Tamamo-no-Mae behind me smiled happily, which made the surrounding Maoshuo clansmen even more engrossed.

After leaving the ancestral home of the Maoshuo family, I made a new agreement with Aizen that we would go and try to conquer Takatengen in a few days to see what was going on there.

Madara also informed me that the sealing site of Kiyohime, the Bone-Binding Princess, had been discovered in Gintoki Castle. This creature is a demon similar to the White Bone Demon.

The type of weapon was quite good, but the combat strength was a bit lacking. However, it allowed Tamamo-no-Mae and Susanoo to use their abilities to massacre the entire Gintoki Castle under the guise of recruiting soldiers.

Then I can be freed up, no longer bound by so-called goals, and can take people home first, and then find an opportunity to come back.

Otherwise, I'd always be tied to my goals, which would be very uncomfortable. And once the Jiuyuan family is wiped out, I won't have to stay in Dongyi anymore; I can go home first.

Otherwise, we're too passive in our actions right now, always being led by the nose. After arranging the time with Aizen, it was almost dawn.

I hurried back to the Shikoku Hotel, but as soon as I got outside, I sensed a strange aura—the presence of that mysterious force.

They sent people to the Shikoku Hotel to keep an eye on me. Why are they watching me? What do they want?

Given my perceived status, I shouldn't have any dealings with them. Or perhaps they want to use my identity for something?

I frowned and observed for a while, not wanting to disturb them. I thought I'd wait a few days before sending someone to deal with them, otherwise it would always be a problem.

She returned to her suite, still seething with anger. Mei Yao was still asleep, but she didn't care and pounced on her fiercely. (A thousand words omitted here.)

After everything was finished, Meiyao lay on me for a while to recover, then looked up and asked, "What's wrong? Why are you so irritable this morning?"

I said irritably, "Don't ask if there's nothing wrong." Mei Yao, seeing my evasive gaze, just smiled.

I didn't ask anything, I just got up and started getting ready. I also lay in bed for a while before getting up.

When we arrived at the restaurant, we heard that something had happened at the hotel again; several security guards who were on night duty the previous night had been killed.

Something was discovered while trying to sneak into the hotel, then killed several security guards who were present and calmly retreated.

However, the manner of their deaths was very strange; they all ate their own hands and feet and bled to death.
