Chapter 170 A Tragic Story



Who is it?

When the door opened, a simple-minded face appeared before everyone's eyes.

"It's me, is Gui Gui there?"

"Is Da Han here?"

Hearing the commotion outside, Gui Gui came out of the kitchen, holding a few white rice balls in her hand.

"Didn't have breakfast? How about a rice ball? It's ham and egg filling."

Da Han took one and took a bite. "Delicious! Yingcao's cooking skills are getting better and better!"

"Eat more if it's delicious."

Jue came out and distributed the rice balls.

"Hey, Wind God."

Little Ibaraki-dōji tugged at Ichimokuren's sleeve and asked, "Who is that Ibaraki-dōji standing over there?"

"It's a shikigami from the guild next door, and it has a good relationship with you, Master."

"Is he very capable?"

Little Ibaraki-dōji asked with wide eyes.

"Well?"

Da Han heard the small voice and sensed a familiar scent. Upon closer inspection, he saw Little Ibaraki-doji.

"Lord Qiushui summoned a tiny me?" He chuckled sheepishly.

How silly...

Little Ibaraki-dōji thought to himself.

"The lord has arrived!"

Zashiki-warashi pushed open the door, and Shusui entered the Onmyōryō (Bureau of Yin and Yang), stopping in front of the little Ibaraki-dōji. "Haven't grown up overnight?"

Yingcao slapped her forehead and exclaimed, "Oh dear!"

"I forgot to feed him the blue egg!"

Qiu Shui waved her fan and said, "No need. We'll bring him along today and let him gain experience in the audience."

Take out your phone and send a message.

Anyone want to farm Soul 10? @BlackWaterBeauty @SushiKungFang

“We only have twelve stamina left, and the spider lilies are still starving. What do you think?” the black-clad water beauty replied.

"Do you have spider lilies?"

"Six-star, lucky me?" the Black Water Beauty said smugly. "Another six-star DPS."

I have one more now.

Qiu Shui thought to herself.

Another two-star damage dealer...

"Why do we need to farm Soul 10?" came the reply from Sushi Workshop.

"There's one more SSR."

"It's not a group attack, is it?" he asked.

"No, it's Ibaraki."

"congratulations."

Sushi Workshop posted a cute emoji.

"What's wrong?"

Qiu Shui felt that he wasn't a talkative person; he was always decisive and efficient.

"It's alright, bring Ibaraki-doji to the arena, I'll help you."

After replying to that message, Sushi Workshop went offline.

Qiu Shui looked at his grayed-out profile picture, put down his phone, summoned his shikigami, and they headed towards the arena on the outskirts of Heian-kyo.

Upon arriving at the arena entrance, there stood a six-star, max-level Lu Sheng.

"Where are your parents?" Qiu Shui asked.

"The master has left."

Lu Sheng said coolly.

Rikuo, accompanied by his shikigami and the assistance of his friends, entered the arena, and the battle quickly began, with the opposing onmyoji setting up their formation.

“There are spider lilies and dogs on the other side, let me go.” Rikuo volunteered.

"good."

Qiu Shui readily agreed.

In the arena, the opposing rabbit was too fast, surpassing all the shikigami in one fell swoop, leaving them only able to passively take hits.

Lu Sheng is very sensitive; as soon as his companion is hurt, he rushes out to seek revenge.

After the trip, I was drenched in sweat.

"Are you tired?" Qiu Shui asked him.

Rikuo shook his head. "This is the meaning of our existence in Heian-kyo."

Although Qiushui didn't have Rikuo, seeing how tired Rikuo was from making sushi, she signaled to Ichimokuren to create a shield for him so he wouldn't get hurt again.

After one game—

"Ara, are you ready?"

Qiushui was preparing to change her shikigami. Lusheng went out almost every time, which was too tiring for her, and she couldn't bear to watch anymore.

"I don't think I'm in good shape," Huang Youyou replied.

Having witnessed Lu Sheng's abilities, he felt extremely insecure. While Lu Sheng's attacks could cost over 20,000 per move, his were always only around 1,000 or 2,000...

"What's wrong with you?" Qiu Shui asked in surprise.

Huang remained silent, his face expressionless.

"Did the adults feed him black eggs?"

Lu Sheng, drenched in sweat, asked.

"You've been fed. Get up quickly, or you'll spit out the black egg your father fed you!" Qiu Shui urged him.

She was puzzled. This little brat never gave her a kind look except when he wanted pocket money. It was really exhausting.

"They're here."

Huang slowly walked into the group.

The second round begins—

I got the speed advantage at the start, and the opponents were all low on health. I thought I had everything under control, but then the opponent's Yaksha gave me a mysterious smile.

"I feel there's a conspiracy behind that laughter!"

Qiu Shui shook her fan.

"What conspiracy?"

Gui Gui didn't take it seriously and threw a hook that hit Yaksha.

"ha!"

The Yaksha raised its steel fork and unleashed its power! Seven water vortexes swirled in turn, and no shikigami was missed, each being stabbed seven times in succession!

"SSRs are nowhere near as good as me!" Yasha smugly stabbed his fork into the ground.

"I lost, I lost..."

Gui Gui sighed.

Qiushui withdrew from the competition and led them to watch the other Onmyoji compete.

"Tickets are 20 hooks each." An NPC came to sell tickets.

"Ten tickets, please." Qiu Shui bought the tickets.

The shikigami sat on the eight-stage taiko drum competition platform to watch the masters compete against each other.

"ah!"

Yukidouji's ice blade struck Tamamo-no-Mae, freezing her into an ice statue.

"Why does he shout every time he swings his sword?" Mountain Rabbit asked cutely.

"Tamamo-no-Mae's wife died as divine punishment, his child was killed by the Kamo family's Onmyoji, his daughter's eyes became a collection of Hyakki-e, and Yuki-Douji, who he himself had given demonic power to, was still chasing after him... How tragic."

Autumn Water spoke to the shikigami.

After completing the main storyline, she learned most of the backgrounds of these shikigami, most of which had a tragic element to them.
