The cherry blossom volcano has erupted.
This quickly made headlines. Chinese netizens celebrated with singing and dancing.
Inside the palace, the elderly man in royal robes remained unconscious.
The entire royal family was filled with sorrow.
They thought they were attracting good fortune, but it turned out to be a disaster!
After a while, the old man finally woke up groggily.
"Baka! What's going on?"
"Your Majesty! The Infant Flower Volcano has erupted on a small scale, so the problem isn't too serious. The surrounding people have already been evacuated! However, Mount Futu, which could have held out for another ten years, is now at risk of erupting at any moment!" The celestial official reported tremblingly from the side.
"What?!" The old man's eyes widened, and a look of horror appeared on his face.
"What are you waiting for? Once Mount Fuji erupts, the entire island will be reduced to ashes. Get ready to evacuate!" the old man ordered in a panic.
"Your Majesty, please calm down!"
Just then, a short, thin old woman wearing a long robe slowly walked in from outside.
The old man's eyes widened, and he exclaimed, "Master Orochi, what brings you here?"
As he spoke, he stood up to greet them personally. The others also bowed in greeting.
This old woman's name is Yagi Sana! She holds a very special position in Japan.
Japan has two major feng shui families: Fukuda and Yagi!
This Yagi Sana is now the leader of the Yagi clan!
Fukuda and Orochi were rivals, fighting each other for thousands of years, reaching a point of life and death at their most intense.
They all wanted to control the shrine, inherit its incense offerings, and become the number one feng shui family in Japan.
Now that this has happened, the old woman rushed to the palace immediately.
Yagi Sana approached, pounded her chest with her right hand, and slowly bowed, "Sana greets Your Majesty!"
The old man asked excitedly, "Master Orochi, there's no need for such formalities. Mount Fuji is about to erupt, and my capital may be in danger. What good plan do you have, Master?"
Yagi Sana said calmly, "Sana has come here to tell Your Majesty! Your Majesty need not worry. Just now, the god of my Yagi family has awakened and has arrived at Mount Fuji. He will use his divine body to lower the internal temperature of Mount Fuji. For at least ten years, Mount Fuji will not be in danger of erupting!"
"What?" The old man looked shocked. "You mean..."
The expressions on the other people's faces also changed.
As is widely known, Japan now has three deities.
They are Kobe, Kuna, and Ryukawa!
This is the public truth!
But in the shadows, there are also the legendary, sleeping gods.
The deity of the Orochi family is one of them!
However, it wasn't a person, but a giant snake!
A snake that has existed since the beginning of time!
Historically known as the Yamata no Orochi!
This snake is different from ordinary snakes; it has eight heads and eight tails, and its body length is unknown.
It has appeared several times in history and has left behind many legends.
However, a thousand years ago, the Yamata no Orochi fell into a deep sleep, and there were even rumors that it might have died!
Even so, as the ancestral spirit beast of the Orochi family, no one would dare to harm the Orochi family as long as its death was not confirmed.
Therefore, the Orochi family has always been treated with courtesy and preferential treatment by the imperial family throughout the dynasties.
When Yagi Sana brought this news, the old man was overjoyed.
"Yoshi! Yoshi! Yamata no Orochi truly lives up to his reputation as a primordial deity! He stepped forward at the crucial moment to protect the lifeline of my Japan! This time, I will reward the Yamata family handsomely!"
In his excitement, the old man was about to issue an order for a reward.
However, at this moment, Yagi Sana shook her head and said, "Your Majesty, my Yagi family has long transcended worldly affairs. Whether you bestow titles upon my Yagi family or not is not important. But you must severely punish the sinners' families, otherwise my great Wa nation will be destroyed by these scoundrels sooner or later!"
"A family of sinners?" The old man looked confused, not knowing who Yagi Sana was referring to.
Yagi Sana stepped forward and said coldly, "Your Majesty, I have already been to the shrine to investigate the reason for the failure of this ritual! The culprit is the dragon-taming wood that Princess Fukuda sent back!"
"What?!" The old man's eyes widened in disbelief. "Master Orochi, are you mistaken? The Dragon-Subduing Wood that Misa sent back this time is said to be a divine wood that can enhance the power of the formation several times over!"
Yagi Sana shook her head and said, "Your Majesty, I have already examined that stick. It is not Dragon-Subduing Wood, but Lightning-Struck Wood! Although Lightning-Struck Wood and Dragon-Subduing Wood look similar, their functions are completely different! Lightning-Struck Wood has a strong primordial yang energy, which is mainly destructive. Using it to activate the great formation will not only fail to increase the power of the formation, but will also disrupt its operation, and may even cause the formation to backfire!"
"Today's raging storm and bad luck are all caused by the backlash of the great formation!" Yagi Sana said coldly.
Wow!
The scene erupted in uproar.
At this moment, no one raised any questions.
Because Yagi Sana's words were so flawless, upon careful recollection, it seemed to be true.
At first, the formation was fine, but everything changed after Fukuda Misa delivered the Dragon-Subduing Wood!
It's most likely the fault of the Dragon-Subduing Wood!
Even the old man on the throne couldn't help but flicker his eyes, appearing somewhat doubtful and uncertain.
However, he still shook his head, "Misa is a member of my royal family, the wife of my younger brother, Prince Yuanhe. How could she do such a stupid thing!"
He couldn't find any motive in Fukuda Misa.
Yagi Sana couldn't help but sneer, "Your Majesty, Prince Motonari has been gone for many years, and Princess Fukuda has been raising the Crown Prince alone. However, Your Majesty only has one princess. After you pass away, according to the order of succession, the Crown Prince should succeed to the throne. But the Crown Prince is still young, so Princess Fukuda will inevitably rule from behind the curtain..."
At this point, Yagi Sana paused, but the meaning behind her words was self-evident, and everyone understood.
The old man in royal robes also suddenly narrowed his eyes.
With the crown prince being young and the empress dowager ruling from behind the curtain, the entire royal family is bound to be sidelined by the Fukuda family!
Thinking of this, an uncontrollable rage flashed in the old man's eyes. He slammed his hand heavily on the dragon throne. "Baka!! This is outrageous! This Fukuda Misa is a wolf in sheep's clothing! She deserves to die!"
He now completely believed Yagi Sana's words and coldly ordered, "Men! Surround the Prince's mansion. No one in the mansion is allowed to step out of the gate. As for the Fukuda family, imprison them all. Notify Fukuda Misa to return to Japan immediately. If she dares not to return, the entire Fukuda family will be executed!"
This order caused an uproar among the entire Japanese high command!
The Fukuda family's status in Japan was equivalent to that of the Yehenara clan in the Qing Dynasty.
This is such a huge incident, it's like the sky has been turned upside down!
Yagi Sana turned around, a slight smirk playing on her lips, revealing a sinister expression.
The Fukuda family is completely finished this time.
Without a doubt, from now on, the Yamata family will become the number one feng shui family in Japan.
