"This guy has attacked villages and killed people before, right?"
Hearing this, Nurarihyon's heart sank.
He stared at Ye Xing who was sitting there, and thought that he felt something was wrong the moment the other party said the word Nura Group.
The Nura Group has always kept a low profile and has not set foot in Kyoto in recent years.
How did the other party know about the Nura Group?
And when Crow Tengu came to report, he said that the young man had asked him to come over by name.
In addition, he just casually mentioned the crimes that Ushioki committed when he had just become a monster and had not yet joined the Nura clan.
Nurarihyon originally thought that he was in the dark and the other side was in the light.
Now it seems like the opposite is true.
Are we the ones who are kept in the dark?
"not talking?"
Seeing that Nurarihyon remained silent and did not answer, Yexing smiled, stood up from the chair, and slowly walked to the other party.
Seeing him approaching within three meters of their commander-in-chief, hundreds of monsters showed vigilance.
"Actually."
Yexing is much taller than Nurarihyon. He even squatted slightly, as if he was afraid that the other party couldn't hear him. His behavior was very polite and appropriate.
"I'm a very reasonable person."
After hearing these words, before Nurarihyon could breathe a sigh of relief, he saw the smile on Yexing's face disappear instantly, and he said in a cold tone.
"I won't care about what happens outside of Kyoto."
"But, I am an exorcist, and you are leading your Nura group with hundreds of monsters, including the Ushio-ki, an evil demon who has killed humans before."
"And now you tell me that your Nura group has no hostility?"
Ye Xing's eyes beneath the mask revealed undisguised murderous intent. He stared directly at Nurarihyon and spoke softly.
"Who allowed you, a bunch of dirty guys, to set foot in Kyoto City?"
Feeling his undisguised murderous intent, Nurarihyon's face changed and he realized that he could no longer continue the conversation.
"clang!"
As the words fell, Ye Xing had already swung the Onimaru Kunitsuna in his hand and slashed towards Nurarihyon's head.
There was a sound of metal clashing, and the spiritual power of both sides collided, stirring up a cloud of dust.
After the smoke and dust cleared, Yotsuya Miko and Futaba Rio discovered that the short old man had disappeared.
The person standing in the original position was replaced by a young man who was nearly meters tall, with long black and white hair, a very handsome appearance, a lazy look, and wearing an ancient men's kimono.
At this time, he was holding a long sword in his hand, fighting against Onimaru Kunitsugu in Yexing's hand.
The sound of metal clashing that just happened was caused by the collision of two knives.
Futaba Rio frowned and muttered to herself.
"Could it be... this is the old man from before? I didn't expect that he has the ability to rejuvenate. When he was young, he looked like this."
Yotsuya Miko nodded and agreed.
"Well, I didn't expect this monster to be quite good-looking when he was young."
Then, Yotsuya Miko added another sentence.
"Of course, not as good as Night Star."
Futaba Rio was speechless.
"Don't be such a fangirl, we're fighting."
Futaba Rio felt that ever since the last time Yohoshi said that he wanted to find Yotsuya Miko to verify something, the other party has been absent-minded for a while.
Occasionally when he is in a daze, he will reveal that innocent smile.
I didn't have this symptom before I saw you.
Shouldn't...
Was he infected by Yuigahama Yui?
At the same time, inside the venue, Nurarihyon, who had completed his transformation, had a completely different aura.
He looked directly into Yexing's eyes beneath the black mask and spoke slowly.
"We are not here to start a war."
"You still don't understand."
Ye Xing pushed the Guimaru Kunitsugu in his hand forward and said lightly.
"Kyoto is my city."
"What happens here is not decided by you, but by me."
"I don't want to waste my time talking to you."
Having said that, Ye Xing changed to holding the knife with his left hand, and stretched out his right hand again in the direction of the pale ghost hand, with his five fingers clenched in the air.
Then came the Niu Gui's muffled groan of suppressed pain.
"No!"
Nurarihyon was really anxious now.
He clenched his teeth, not caring about continuing any negotiations, and pushed the Mimi Kirimaru in his hand forward.
Nurarihyon exerted such force that the tip of the long sword directly touched Yexing's chest.
The black clothes formed by the power of evil spirits were cut open by the sharp edge of Mimi Kirimaru.
"Interesting, indeed interesting."
Seeing that Nurarihyon, holding the Mimi Kirimaru, was able to break through his defense, Ye Xing was not afraid at all. Instead, excitement was revealed in his eyes.
"Give me more fun."
The moment Ye Xing said this, the pale ghost hand that was originally tightly holding the Niu Gui suddenly disappeared.
Before Niu Gui could even breathe a sigh of relief, he suddenly felt a terrifying sense of crisis in his heart.
Not just him.
Facing the night star, Nurarihyon felt his hair stand on end, and he felt as if his body had fallen into an icy cave.
The pale ghost hand will not suddenly disappear.
It will only merge.
Yotsuya Miko and Futaba Rio knew about Yohoshi's abilities, so they were not surprised.
Nurarihyon gradually realized that something was going wrong.
The opponent's strength far exceeded his expectations.
And at the beginning, Nura Nagaragi and the cadres of the Nura Group only thought that Yohoshige had stolen Onimaru Kunitsuna and needed this famous sword to improve his strength. He was an ordinary Onmyoji who had some skills but was not too strong.
But after the first round, he realized that his original speculation was extremely wrong.
Onimaru Kunitsuna has already recognized the man in front of him as the master who drives it.
If Nurarihyon hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed it was true.
Onimaru Kunitsuna, what level of spiritual creature is that?
From the time the news of the invasion of the Kyoto City Museum broke to now, less than half a month has passed, right?
How could the other party gain the recognition of Onimaru Kunitsuna in such a short time?
This is too outrageous.
After integrating the Pale Ghost Hand, Ye Xing, who was originally slightly inferior in strength, once again took the initiative.
He held Onimaru Kunitsuna in one hand and pushed forward slightly. Nurarihyon's face changed and he clenched his teeth. He didn't care about his manners and put his other hand on the hilt.
Only by holding the knife with both hands can he barely compete with Ye Xing who holds the knife with one hand.
This is not just a difference in physical fitness, but also a gap in spiritual power between the two sides.
Ye Xing even had the leisure to turn sideways and smile at Yotsuya Miko and Futaba Rio who were not far away.
"My opponent is too strong. I must go all out. So I'll leave those small fry to you two and Hachishaku."
Futaba Rio and Yotsuya Miko both curled their lips and thought to themselves, I don't believe you at all.
Go all out?
You have used up one tenth of your strength, but you still have to pretend to be cautious as if you are about to die.
If the enemy is really that strong, would you still have the leisure to chat?
Futaba Rio and Yotsuya Miko also understood that Ye Xing wanted to take advantage of his presence to allow the two of them to gain more combat experience while ensuring absolute safety.
"Open your eyes, Baimu!"
"Tear off the disguise, Bone Girl!"
When the monsters of Nura clan saw the true form of the soul revealed after Yotsuya Miko and Futaba Rio called out the true name of the soul, they were all stunned.
Even Gyu-oni and Nurarihyon, who have lived for hundreds of years, have never seen such ability.
Is that... a shikigami?
They don't look alike, and the aura is completely different.
"You've never seen it before? Is this your first time seeing it? Is it new?"
Ye Xing's three questions in a mocking tone made Nurarihyon feel a little embarrassed.
As his body became younger, his mentality also changed. He was no longer as steady as he was in old age, but more like the wild and unrestrained person he was in his youth.
"What an arrogant brat."
Nurarihyon dodged and moved from in front of Yexing to behind him in an instant, and swung the long sword Mimi Kirimaru in his hand without hesitation.
"That's it?"
It was as if Ye Xing had eyes on his back and he dodged the opponent's attack by simply turning sideways.
His left hand slowly reached into his arms.
Seeing Yexing's action, Nurarihyon immediately put the long sword in front of him, with a flash of vigilance in his eyes.
What trick?
Iai slash? Sword drawing? Or just a thrust with explosive force?
Nurarihyon has rich combat experience. From the slight movements of his shoulders and waist, he can judge the enemy's next move, thus achieving the effect of seeing through the enemy.
But in his opinion, after Ye Xing put his left hand into his arms, he did not make any preparation before exerting force, and even his body relaxed.
What kind of high-end swordsmanship is this?
Could it be that this was the legendary way of letting the body relax to the extreme in order to offset all attacks, the highest realm of martial arts, the dissipation of energy?
"Lao Deng..."
After several thoughts flashed through Nurarihyon's mind, Ye Xing finally stretched out his left hand from his arms.
What he took out stunned the leader of all monsters.
The black muzzle of the gun was aimed at Nurarihyon's forehead, and along with the gunshot was the sound of Yexing's chuckle.
"Times have changed."
"boom!"
After the gunshot, Nurarihyon was still standing there.
But his hands were shaking slightly.
"Ding..."
