When Shuten-dōji arrived, he was imposing and full of ceremony, but when he fled, he seemed extremely hasty.

However, the King of Hell's attention was not on Shuten-dōji at this moment. Therefore, he had no desire to pursue Shuten-dōji's escape! He only felt relieved after looking down at the little guy he was protecting and finding him unharmed.

As Shuten-dōji left, the illusion barrier was also removed, and Song Mengmeng once again felt the enthusiasm brought by the surging crowd around her.

However, she didn't have time to pay attention to any of that right now. The little girl simply turned around, raised her head slightly, and looked at the suddenly appearing Yan Di who had reached out to protect her with a hint of joy and excitement. She smiled happily and said, "Big Beast, you're here!"

"If I hadn't come, were you planning to force your way into Shuten-dōji's place?!" Yan Di lowered his eyes, reached out and ruffled the little girl's fluffy head, his tone carrying a hint of helplessness and disapproval.

Upon learning that Shuten-dōji and the others were also in Xijing, he rushed over almost without hesitation!

Fortunately, she arrived in time, otherwise...

"No!" Song Mengmeng shook her head vigorously, denying the matter quickly and thoroughly.

It wasn't entirely to appease the King of Hell; rather, she genuinely didn't intend to confront Shuten-dōji head-on this time. After all, with her current strength, her chances of winning against Shuten-dōji weren't very high!

Although she hated evil as much as she could, she wasn't stupid!

If the King of Hell doesn't come, then it's likely that she, not Shuten-dōji, will be the one to run away next!

"Good girl." Emperor Yan lowered his eyes, his deep gaze filled with a hint of doting affection. He turned around and, without letting him search for too long, saw Hu Da and Yao Anna hurrying towards them, one after the other, separating themselves from the crowd.

“Just now…” Hu Da’s face was a little pale. When she sensed something was wrong, she wanted to warn Song Mengmeng beside her, but it was too late!

She was well aware of the exclusionary nature of the Hundred Ghosts Barrier.

So her first reaction was to quickly find an entrance and go in to rescue the people! But before she could find a way to break the formation, it mysteriously vanished right in front of her!

She had initially found it strange, but upon following the trail, she realized that the big shot was indeed the big shot.

"Hu Da, you should have a way to contact Shuten-dōji and the others, right?" Yan Di interrupted Hu Da's explanation with just one glance. He spoke calmly, his tone without much fluctuation, but the murderous aura he exuded made even this thousand-year-old demon Hu Da's legs go weak and she couldn't support herself: "Tell them to stay away from Mengmeng from now on!"

This is the last chance, don't force me to actually take action!

How could Hu Da dare disobey her boss's orders?!

Seeing that Hu Da agreed in a low voice, Emperor Yan did not pursue the matter further. He turned his attention back to Song Mengmeng, who was standing next to him, and asked, "Do you want to continue shopping?!"

"Yes, I heard there's a song and dance performance later!" Song Mengmeng raised her hand and pointed in the direction of the crowd gathering not far away, her words revealing her barely suppressed anxiety: "Let's go, let's go, if we go any later we won't be able to see it!"

According to the introduction, this time we can see a live version of "The Beauty's Journey". As a Pixiu who loves excitement, she also likes all kinds of happy and beautiful things.

Yan Di has never had any bottom line when it comes to the little girl's requests.

Besides, Song Mengmeng's demands were never that high! He held the little girl's hand and walked forward naturally, blending into the crowd. His calm and leisurely demeanor was particularly unbearable for Hu Da to watch from behind!

This feeling of indulgence...

"Are you thinking of Consort Yang and Emperor Ming?!" Hu Da's thoughts were wandering when a soft laugh suddenly sounded beside her, pulling her back to reality. She turned her head and met a smiling face.

Who else could it be but Hanacho-juku?!

"You really are a persistent ghost!" Hu Da's lips twitched, somewhat reluctant to have any further contact with this overly lively little monster.

How noisy!

"Hey, hey, hey, don't go!" Seeing Hu Da turn to leave, Hana-chan quickly caught up, grabbed her sleeve, and squeezed next to her, chattering away in a very familiar manner about what she had just learned: "Do you know why Shuten-dōji and the others came to Xijing?!"

"Because they want to resurrect the Yamata no Orochi!" Hu Da rolled her eyes impatiently. This question was pointless! She could answer it herself; why did she need this little sparrow to come here and offer her own answer?!

"No, no, no, that's not it!" Hana-chan chuckled and shook her head, looking at Hu Da mysteriously: "Guess, guess again!"

"Even if it's not because of this, it's probably still closely related to this matter!" Hu Da didn't want to guess. She quickened her pace. If she didn't walk faster, she wouldn't be able to catch up with the two big shots in front, let alone Yao Anna, who had abandoned her and walked ahead while looking back to watch the show!

“That’s right, it is indeed related to this matter! But the reason behind it is something you would never have guessed!” Although Hu Da tried her best to reject her, Hana no Maki was not angry. She still followed closely by her side and said with a smile, “Lady Tamamo-no-Mae, I came here as soon as I received this news!”

Aren't you going to give me a compliment?!

"You brought this information here simply to make me happy and then fulfill your wish of showing me my true form! In that case, you should know that what I hate most in my life is being called Tamamo-no-Mae!"

Hu Da paused slightly, instinctively reaching out to tear the flower and bird scroll off her body.

However, the little demon in front of him was as stubborn as the most incurable psoriasis, impossible to peel off no matter what. The little demon blinked as if suddenly realizing something, let out a howl, and then said with a hint of apology, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Well, Lady Daji, from now on I'll call you Lady Daji, is that alright?!"

"What exactly do you want to say?!" Hu Da felt that this little monster in front of her was not disgracing her name at all, chattering away without ever stopping!

She felt like hundreds or even thousands of birds were chirping and circling in her head, it was so noisy!

"Alright, I'll tell you! The reason Shuten-dōji and the others came to Xijing is because the Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi, which carries the spirit of Yamata no Orochi, has gone missing!" Hanabusa-maki probably realized that Huda was really angry, so she finally stopped keeping them in suspense and honestly revealed the news: "Therefore, they have now had to stop all their plans and start casting a wide net around the world to search for the whereabouts of the Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi!"
