The opposition boycotted Kotani Hayabusa because the shrine's sacrificial ceremony provided them with a large amount of benefits.As long as Ise Shrine remains in power, the benefits will continue, and because of their current status, their lives are unlikely to be in danger.

However, now this stability has been completely destroyed.

The recast seal that Optics Valley Falcon fought for with his life didn't even last for a month before another accident occurred.

Let alone the conformists, even those in the opposition know that this is definitely not normal.

Someone is behind the scenes!

Yue Jianyou did not give any explanation for this matter, but continued.

"According to the information provided by Ise Shrine, the seal of the Underworld Gate is more damaged this time than ever before."

"Five shadows have already rushed out of the Gate of Underworld and are now wandering in Jixiang Shrine."

"I called you here for emergency evacuation."

"Although the specific reason is not yet clear, Ise Shrine's preliminary judgment is that the recast seal has some flaws."

Chapter 387 Awakening

defect?

How can it be!

Tsukimi Yu obviously thinks everyone is a fool!

Or maybe, Ise Jingu is playing tricks on them!

"Fortunately, Ise Shrine has taken emergency response measures to temporarily control the Gate of Hell, thus preventing the situation from worsening further."

"And what we have to do next is to expel these shadows from the shrine."

Kitsudahime frowned: "Kicking out of the shrine...what do you mean?"

"Did you make it to Jixiang Village?"

Yue Jianyou nodded.

Kitsudahime asked again: "But we alone can't hurt the shadow."

"How can we get out of the shrine if we can't even do any harm?"

"And, there's one more thing."

"Even if we really drive them out of the shrine, they are still a threat to us."

"What if they absorb enough energy outside, become stronger, and then come back to kill us, what should we do without the means to deal with them?"

Kitsudahime's question also represents the most fundamental doubts in the hearts of all shrine maidens.

In response, Yue Jianyou smiled slightly and then said.

"Kicking the shadow out of the shrine only buys us enough time."

"Ise Jingu has figured out how to completely defeat the shadow. It just needs some time to verify."

"So, please don't worry too much."

"Because only Ise Jingu truly cares about us and considers us."

no doubt.

Sister Tsukuyomi's words made her position clear.

Every word that comes out of your mouth represents Ise Shrine.

At this moment, a capable miko asked timidly.

"But how can we drive the shadow out?"

This question will be answered by Yue Jianming.

“If you want to fish, you must have bait.”

"If you want to drive the shadows out, someone must be responsible for attracting their attention."

"It has to be said that this is a dangerous job."

After saying that, Yue Jianming cast his gaze on a person.

This person is none other than the one who was once indoctrinated by Mitsutani Hayabusa... Konohana Saku.

"Konohana, this glorious job is left to you."

In an instant, everyone's eyes were focused on Konohana Saku.

The countless gazes were like scorching sharp edges, piercing her with burning pain.

The heart that was still hanging before has completely sunk to the bottom.

There was a little bit of sweat on her pretty face.

Tsukimi Mei squinted her eyes slightly and saw Konohana Saku's shoulders shaking slightly and her thick lips biting tightly.

Seeing this, Yue Jianming couldn't help but sneered.

Do you think we won’t know anything if you don’t say anything?

joke!

I have to put a stop to my naivety!

Whether it's Kitsudahime or you, Konohana Saku, everything that happens in the entire shrine is under the control of Ise Shrine.

Now that you have broken the precept, you have to bear the consequences.

Yue Jianming said in a cold tone.

"You should know why I chose you."

Tsukimi Mei's words also made Konohana Saku understand everything.

It turns out that she was the victim from the beginning.

The so-called for the shrine, for profit, and for a stable life in the future are all words to deceive her.

From the moment she nodded in agreement, this outcome was destined.

Even though she is the miko of Takamagahara, she still has to pay for her own stupidity.

Sad, helpless.

In the end, Konohana Saku nodded desperately.

Yue Jianming sneered proudly.

Since you have agreed, let me leave you some thin noodles.

"Konohana, I also hope that you can fulfill your mission and complete the tasks assigned to you by the gods."

Konohana Saku closed his eyes.

Her eyelashes were trembling and her lips were trembling.

All thoughts were lost, and tears fell from the corners of his eyes.

If you want fish to take the bait, you naturally need to use bait.

However, once the fish takes the bait, the bait will naturally be eaten by the fish.

In other words, all that was left for Konohana Saku was to die an honorable death.

Konohana Saku bowed slightly and saluted.

Said in a trembling voice.

"As ordered."

"Very good." Yue Jianming nodded with satisfaction: "Since Konohana has agreed, the job of attracting shadows will be left to you."

"Don't worry, we will definitely help you."

Of course you have to say it.

Even if you are busy, you also need to help.

But how to help, Yue Jianming didn't say.

------

In the silent shrine corridor.

Asuka's small leather shoes stepped on the wooden floor, and the click of footsteps echoed faintly.

The folded dagger kept turning on the fingertips, making a crisp clicking sound, like a metronome, ringing at a stable frequency.

The scarlet eyes swayed quietly in the darkness like a ghost.

The keen perception ability is infinitely amplified in this dark corridor, and even the slightest movement of wind and grass can be detected.

Snapped.

Snapped.

The sound of sticky water drops was particularly loud in the darkness in the deepest part of the corridor.

Although she couldn't see clearly, Asuka knew that there must be something hidden in the darkness.

Asuka became more vigilant and no longer played with the dagger in her hand, but gradually tightened her grip.

Perhaps she sensed something, the lines on Asuka's lower abdomen were also faintly radiating warmth.

Some kind of power is ready to move, as if seeds have broken through the soil and are slowly sprouting.

suddenly!

Without warning, a ball of thick black mucus burst out from the darkness!

Go straight to Asuka!

It's a shadow!

Asuka didn't understand why there was a shadow in the shrine.

Obviously the shrine should be the safest place, and Mitsuya Hayabusa has recast the seal before, so there will be no problems in a short time.

However, the shadow was already approaching, and there was no time to think about other things.

next moment!

Asuka reacted instinctively.

The protection on her lower abdomen has enhanced her body functions to a certain extent.

Under this increase, the shadow that was as fast as lightning also became like slow motion.

Asuka managed to avoid Shadow's first kill with little effort.

A puddle of mud hit the wall firmly, exploding into countless black mud flying flowers.

Asuka expressionlessly used the dagger to block the black mud flying towards her face, then flicked her wrist and threw it to the ground like garbage.

The scarlet eyes were shining with an aggressive light.

When the attack failed, Shadow immediately changed his strategy.

The black mud that had just been splashed out slowly crawled from the walls and floor as if it was alive, and then gathered together again.

After a period of nauseating squirming, the black mud changed and gradually condensed into a human figure.

Then, in the hazy moonlight streaming from the window, a clear outline was reflected.

It was Asuka.

Asuka looked at the "person" in front of her, who was exactly the same as herself, except that his body was covered in mud and black, and couldn't help but laugh softly.

"So, is this the shadow that Mr. Guang Gu has been mentioning?"

"After discovering that the sneak attack was useless, he turned into the opponent's appearance. What a mindless single-celled life."

The power given by Chapter 388

The burning heat in her lower abdomen reached its peak at the moment when Shadow Asuka took shape.
