Chapter 171 Should I call you Daji or Tamamo-no-Mae?



Just from this description, you know it's definitely that Great Tengu!

However, since it involves sacrifice, it is inevitable that a sense of ritual will be present!

Therefore, based on this analysis, the monsters that were captured should still be safe for the time being.

"To resurrect the Yamata no Orochi, they really have the audacity to do that!" After learning of their purpose, Daji couldn't help but sneer, saying with a hint of disdain, "That snake is poisonous. If it is really resurrected, who knows who it will devour first!"

"No matter what, we can't just stand by and do nothing while they arrest people with impunity, can we?!" Hu Yue paced around the living room in frustration, finally stopping to look at Song Mengmeng: "Mengmeng, what do you think?!"

“Although I think what you said makes sense, the other side has the Heavenly Cloud Sword in their hands. How are we supposed to go and snatch them?” Before Song Mengmeng could speak, Daji, who was standing not far from her, crossed her arms and complained to Hu Yue without any politeness, “Aren’t you a government department? Find a pretext to have someone shut down this event. At least that would buy us a little time!”

Daji rubbed her temples with a headache, glanced at the sky outside, stretched lazily without any regard for her image, and then flopped onto the sofa and fell asleep immediately.

Although Song Mengmeng's reaction wasn't as exaggerated as Daji's, she was actually quite tired. She yawned slightly and looked at Hu Yue expectantly: "So, can we go to sleep first?!"

Compared to Hu Yue's nervousness and anxiety, Song Mengmeng and Daji's attitudes were frighteningly calm.

However, perhaps due to this calmness, Hu Yue, who had initially felt a great calamity was imminent and was extremely nervous, calmed down considerably. She nodded and decisively arranged for Song Mengmeng to rest in the guest room next to Hu Lingling's room.

After politely thanking Hu Yue, Song Mengmeng went straight into the room and locked the door.

She was really tired, so she didn't linger and didn't even have time to take a shower before collapsing onto the bed and falling asleep as soon as she closed her eyes.

Because the whole thing was so bizarre, Hu Yue didn't have much time to rest.

She quickly reported the situation to the higher-ups of the special task force by phone, and naturally did not forget Daji's earlier suggestion, proposing to temporarily cancel the traditional weapons exhibition of the Sakura Kingdom.

Hu Yue's report clearly exceeded the comprehension of many people. If this were an ordinary government agency, and you were to say such things, you would be either a lunatic or very close to going insane!

How could someone who has reached a high position in the Special Task Force be a complete idiot who knows nothing?!

Therefore, Hu Yue's report quickly gained the attention of the higher-ups, who not only agreed to her proposal but also offered to send an assistant to help.

This arrangement relieved Hu Yue somewhat.

But while it was easy to deal with those above her, Song Mengmeng, whom she had brought in as an assistant, was clearly not someone who could be easily fooled!

She had expressed her desire to leave early that morning, because, in her words, she had work to do and needed to go back to filming!

“They’re not causing trouble in one place at all, so even if we all stay here, it won’t make any difference!” Song Mengmeng looked at Hu Yue seriously, not thinking that her so-called waiting for trouble was a good decision.

"I think instead of staying here guarding the place, you should look for clues at this weapons exhibition." Song Mengmeng slowly suggested to Hu Yue, picking at her salad with a fork. "Since they want to revive the Yamata no Orochi, they'll definitely go all out with the proper rituals!"

Therefore, I think that if we start with that exhibition, even if we can't find any other clues, we can at least find out where these monsters from the Cherry Blossom Country might be hiding.

When that time comes, as long as she wipes out those guys' entire nest, she'll see how they still dare to boast every day about reviving the Yamata no Orochi!

It's clearly a joke!

Seeing that she couldn't persuade Song Mengmeng to stay any longer, Hu Yue didn't waste any more time. She nodded her gratitude to Song Mengmeng and offered to take her back to the film studio, but Daji, who was standing nearby, rejected the offer.

“Aren’t you going to stay and investigate? I’m also going to the film and television city, so I can give her a ride.”

Daji slowly put down her chopsticks and extended a friendly invitation to Song Mengmeng.

Song Mengmeng didn't refuse. She thanked him politely, then continued to eat her vegetable salad and finish her milk oatmeal porridge. After tidying up, she said goodbye to Hu Yue and followed Daji downstairs.

It wasn't until she got into Daji's Toyota Prado that Song Mengmeng noticed that Daji had changed her appearance in an instant: "My name is Hu Da now, and my profession is image designer."

As Daji started the car, she casually picked out a business card and handed it to Song Mengmeng, who was sitting in the back seat: "I never expected that in this world lacking in spiritual energy, I would actually encounter a living Pixiu!"

"I don't like hearing that. Do you think I'm so rare to be alive?!" Song Mengmeng looked away from the business card Daji handed her and glanced at Daji driving through the rearview mirror with some dissatisfaction.

Daji smiled and actually nodded in agreement with Song Mengmeng: "Yes, it's very rare."

It's still such a healthy and lively Pixiu, and its magical power is not diminished at all! In a world where spiritual energy is almost exhausted, this is really quite rare! Let alone relying on the power of faith, now that the gods have fallen and humanity has long forgotten its original faith, that little bit of genuine faith in Pixiu can be completely ignored!

As for the claim that being a celebrity can also grant one the power of faith...

The little Pixiu in front of us is clearly not even a C-list celebrity in the entertainment industry. The faith power it gains from its limited exposure is barely enough to fill the teeth of a mythical beast like them!

"It's quite rare for a great demon like you to appear!" Song Mengmeng propped herself up, leaned against the car seat, and looked closely at Daji who was driving. She sniffed and frowned slightly. "I can actually smell the scent of those demons from the Cherry Blossom Kingdom on you. So, what's wrong with you?!"

Should I call you Daji or Tamamo-no-Mae?!
