The bright tip of the blade stopped suddenly in front of Ian.

The sharpest part is probably only a hair away from the eyeball.

The person who did these things was none other than Minamoto Noraimitsu's biological father, Minamoto Manchu.

He was a warrior who was over fifty years old, but still looked good.

Between his eyebrows, there is an air that is not inferior to that of young people.

"Let go of my daughter's hand."

"..."

Minamoto no Yorimitsu was stunned for a moment before he realized what his father had done.

She took the initiative to let go of Ian's hand, and then said:

"Father, what are you doing?!"

But as soon as he finished speaking, Ian stretched out his hand to stop his apprentice's noise.

I saw him smile slightly and said:

"General Yuan Manchu, are you just kidding me?"

Hearing this, Yuan Manzhong was silent at first, and then burst into laughter.

"Are you pretending to be calm?!"

"If my sword were to penetrate just a little further, you would be a dead body now."

"But you wouldn't do that."

Ian still maintained his calm look.

"After all, if the people of Heianjing know that an Onmyoji was killed by you in an attack, I'm afraid your general's reputation will be ruined."

"Besides—"

Ian looked at Minamoto Yorimitsu.

"I think you don't want your daughter to resent you for this, right?"

"..."

[Yuan Manzhong, who was laughing just now, suddenly became gloomy. 】

[You realize that what you just said has completely touched his mind. 】

[This is obviously unacceptable to a general. 】

Yuan Manzhong put away his sword blade.

He looked at the man in front of him with dissatisfaction in his tone.

"Ah."

"It seems that you want to show your intelligence to my daughter in front of me?"

"No." Ian shook his head.

"I didn't intend to do that."

"Because I just want to tell you something."

"Tell me something?"

Yuan Manzhong's expression was solemn.

"what's up?"

"that is--"

"Your daughter Minamoto Yorimitsu has found a good enough Onmyoji."

"And that person is me."

Ian's unabashed "self-introduction" surprised Yuan Manzhong.

Minamoto no Yorimitsu looked at Ian in surprise.

After all, when he was in that village before, he still seemed reluctant to go out.

That's why.

Until just now, I was still worried whether he would suddenly give up on it all and return to the forest again.

It doesn't look like it will now.

Is this a change made because of yourself?

Minamoto Noraimitsu looked at him, and a feeling of touching admiration inevitably surged in his heart.

But what she didn't know was that all the love she showed was seen by her father.

The general immediately became dissatisfied.

"What are you talking about in your sleep?"

"Even if you are the most famous Onmyoji that Lai Guang has found, what can you represent?"

"Can you help us accomplish anything?"

"From a general perspective, I really can't really do anything for the Genji clan."

"But--"

Ian was not afraid of the resentful look Yuan Manzhong cast towards him.

"That doesn't mean I can't take any action to benefit the Genji clan."

"what do you mean?"

Yuan Manzhong asked.

"Are you trying to use this inconsistent logic to confuse me and lead to wrong perceptions?"

"Absolutely not."

"There is nothing contradictory about this." Ian continued to explain.

"I really can't get things like wealth and territory for the Genji clan."

"But correspondingly——"

"I can unblock those 'thoughts' that are secretly blocking you. In this way, it can indirectly benefit you."

"..."

Yuan Manzhong's expression became a little heavier.

"Are you trying to say that our Genji was stopped by 'Nian'?"

"Exactly, sir."

"But you should know the status of our Minamoto clan in Heianjing. All of our descendants can rise to great heights, so why should we be stopped?"

"Until the stream stops flowing, no one will notice the accumulated silt." Ian responded calmly.

"but--"

"If you don't believe what I said, then please just laugh it off."

[Your words made Yuan Manzhong pay attention. 】

[He frowned and seemed to be thinking about something. 】

[You noticed that his eyes never left Minamoto Yorimitsu beside you. 】

[You realize that there may be some secrets in the Genji family that you don't know about. 】

Silence filled the house.

After a long time, Yuan Manzhong spoke again:

"Are you serious?"

"Is there 'mind' in our Genji roots?"

Minamoto norimitsu was a little surprised.

In her impression, her father clearly hated Onmyoji so much.

But at this moment, he expressed a concept that can only be understood by carefully studying Yin Yang Surgery.

Something seems not quite right.

But before Minamoto no Yorimitsu had time to think more, Ian had already nodded and replied:

"Well, you're right."

"To be precise, it has formed a weird thought."

"Then do you have a solution?" Yuan Manzhong asked again.

Ian smiled slightly.

"I can't guarantee a solution, but if you need it, I will do my best."

Another moment of silence.

Yuan Manzhong waited for a while before speaking again.

"I understand."

"But speaking of which, there are many rumors about you circulating in Kyoto."

"But so far, it seems that no one has officially mentioned your last name."

"So--"

"Can you at least let me know your last name first?"

"..."

Almost at the same time, the moment he heard Yuan Manzhong say this question, a picture flashed back in Ian's mind.

It was a hand touching his head, trembling and cold.

Then came the final whisper.

"Your name is Abe——"

The words in the dream were not finished.

The real response has already sounded.

"master."

"My last name is Abe."

116. Master, please marry me ([-] words chapter)

[General Yuan Manchu decided to give you a chance. 】

[He appointed you as the exclusive Onmyoji of the Genji clan on the spot. 】

[Of course, you know this naming comes at a price. 】

[If you fail to do something in the next period of time, he may fall out on the spot. 】

[But just don’t worry about this problem. 】

[Because you really discovered some 'thoughts' that exist in Heian Jingli. 】

"Master."

Minamoto no Yorimitsu's gentle voice came from beside him.

"I didn't expect you would dare to speak like that in front of my father."

Ian smiled lightly.

"There's nothing surprising about that, right?"
