King Ember's Journey to Tevat

Chapter 456 The derelict shrine

"Everyone, be careful! This is a meteorite monster!"

"What the hell? Can your meteorite turn into a monster?"

Ember heard the voice of the witch warning her companions above, and immediately jumped out of the magma pool out of anger.

Meteor monster? How could this thing exist?

Wait, it seems there is!

Ember's movements stopped, and he thought of the Dark Abandoned Son, which was very similar to the "meteor monster" that the witch just said.

The Dark Abandonment is a meteor in the universe, but on the ground it becomes a star bug with an overwhelming desire for destruction.

How strong is this thing's desire for destruction? To give a specific example, the Supreme Will likes to use it to hit people.

This shows how capable the abandoned son of darkness is at tearing down a family.

As Ember wandered into the sky, the witches in front of him retreated as if fleeing. Seeing this scene, he couldn't help but complain:

"Hey, hey! Why are you running away? Do I seem to be a hard person to talk to?"

"You didn't even count the number of people. With such a huge movement, no one is missing. Who do you think you are relying on?"

"Haha, it's because of this that Narukami Taisha Shrine didn't sound the alarm."

As Ember spoke, there was a burst of chuckles from all around. Immediately, a pink-haired woman wearing a red and white miko uniform appeared in front of him.

The presence of a shrine maiden in a shrine is nothing noteworthy. What really caught Ember's attention was her extended bangs and hair.

Where does this extend? Those who didn’t know better thought they had two ears on their heads!

Yan Yan took a closer look and saw that they seemed to be real ears, so that was fine.

Withdrawing his gaze, Yi Yan asked the witch in front of him who was also sizing him up: "You should be the palace minister here, right?"

"Yes, Yae Shenzi."

"What about you?" Yae Shenzi nodded, and then she paced back and forth again, minding her own business and saying:

"Should I call you a wanted criminal or an adventurer? Mr. Ember?"

"It's up to you. It has no effect on me anyway." Yi Jin waved his hand, indicating that he would follow the wishes of the Eightfold Divine Son.

Anyway, to Yi Yan, it doesn't matter what you call him, as long as you don't scold him.

"Forget it, let's just call him by his first name." Seeing Yu Yan's indifferent look, Yae Shenzi shrugged and called him by his first name.

"No problem. In that case. The pleasantries are over here, let's talk about business!" said Yi Yan, and began to look around.

"Business?" Yae Shenzi thought thoughtfully after hearing Yu Yan's words. She saw Ember looking around, and waved to the witches peeping behind her.

"Everyone else waiting here, please leave. Clean up the outside of the big shrine before coming in."

"It's quite possible." Yi Jin heard the bright or dark footsteps in the big shrine, and gave a thumbs up to Yae Shenzi with appreciation.

It seems that she still knows that these people are useless to Ember.

"Of course, in this position, even a monster has become a human spirit." Yae Shenzi glanced at the ember, seeming to be quite complaining about this position.

But she saw the crater he had smashed behind Yi Yan, and the dullness in her eyes suddenly disappeared, with a hint of joking.

"Since Ember you said you were here to talk business. Great, let's get started now."

"So fast?"

Ember scratched his head. He didn't expect that as soon as the people from Narukami Taisha left, Yae Shenzi started talking directly.

This is too fast! Is it possible that the Eightfold Divine Son is a resolute person like Coral Palace Xinhai?

"Of course, the position of Palace Secretary is more busy than you think. Finish it early and get off early...Change to the next thing!"

Yae Shenzi tensed up her face, fearing that Yu Yan would notice that she almost spilled the beans just now.

"The first thing is about compensation."

"compensation?!"

When Yi Yan heard Yae Shenzi's words, he was immediately startled. How did she know that she was here to ask for compensation?

"Yes, about the compensation for Mr. Ember's damage to Narukami Taisha Shrine." Yae Shenzi circled the sizzling crater below, with a hint of arc in the corner of his eyes. She was getting rusty after staying at Narukami Taisha Shrine. Finally, someone who seemed very interesting came to her, and she could finally kill the boring time.

"The wooden planks of Narukami Taisha Shrine are made from the fallen branches of the Inazuma Sakura tree. It is no exaggeration to say that they are priceless."

"The white sand in this dojo is also sand washed by running water. There is no trace of dirt on it."

"Mr. Ember, please think about the value of this."

After Yae Shenzi finished speaking, he looked at Ember with interest, as if he was curious about his next reaction.

"Damage Narukami Taisha Shrine? And it's very expensive? I won't take the blame." Yu Jin looked at the deep pit below where he sat down, and immediately waved his hand to clear his relationship.

He defended himself by saying that it happened for a reason, and it was definitely not because the broken things were too expensive.

Then Ember seemed to remember something. He said indignantly: "Do you know why I came up like this?!"

"Why?" Yae Shenzi was also curious about why Ember chose such a unique way to come to Narukami Taisha Shrine.

When he first saw the stream of light in the sky, Yae Shenzi really thought it was a meteor falling from the sky to the ground.

"If you have time, go down the mountain and take a look. What kind of crap did you build on the road up the mountain?!"

"It's a dead end road, there's no fence, and it's a broken bridge. You just hope no one comes up, right?"

"Is it possible that Dao Wife can walk over walls and walls? No way, right?"

……

As soon as he talked about the road up the mountain, Ember started to talk endlessly. It would take me three days and three nights to talk about the outrageousness of this broken road! The road can be built like this, only Ember has seen it in his life.

"Stop, stop, stop! Stop it, stop it!" Yae Shenzi heard the embers blasting the way up the mountain from Narukami Taisha to nothing, and quickly stopped him.

In just a short while, Yi Yan discussed the genealogy of human beings more than once. If he continues to talk like this, Bao Buqi will go one step further.

Considering the strength of Yi Yan, Yae Shenzi decisively stopped Yi Yan's words.

"I usually don't go down the mountain very often, and I don't take the usual route. I was negligent in this matter." Fearing that Yu Yan was not satisfied with what he said, Yae Shenzi immediately took the responsibility on himself.

Yae Shenzi doesn't know about the road problem. She is the palace minister, and most of the time she sits solemnly in the shrine, playing her role as "the palace minister".

With the rare free time, Yae Shenzi wanted to spend it all having fun, so how could he have the patience to walk down the mountain?

If she doesn't jump around, she's already leisurely.

"What about compensation?"

"It's a joke, you don't have to worry about it, Ember."

Hearing this, Ember nodded. Then he asked Yae Shenzi: "Who is in charge of the guards on Yae Island?"

Yae Shenzi felt that Yu Ember's question was inexplicable. Considering that these were not confidential, she answered:

"The sergeants are under the charge of Tian Ling, the shrine maidens and the talismans are under the charge of the Myojin Grand Shrine, the logistics are under the charge of commissioning, and the condolences and festival activities are under the charge of the shrine."

"You're in charge, that's good." Yi Yan nodded, and then took out a note and a scroll.

"Now, it's my turn to demand compensation!"

"You want compensation?!"

Yae Shenzi raised her gloomy eyelids, but she never expected that Ember would directly turn against the guests and ask Narukami Taisha for compensation.

"Is it possible that you still want to pay for mental damage because of the broken road?" Yae Shenzi glanced at Ember with suspicion. Now she suspected that Ember was looking for trouble.

"I look like I'm in a bad mood?" Ember pointed at his face.

Yae Shenzi almost nodded when he saw his sharp-edged iron helmet.

"See for yourself! What do you do as a palace minister?"

After Yan Yan threw the note and scroll into Yae Shenzi's arms, he turned his back and waited quietly.
