The villainous second young lady becomes a god in a bizarre Tokyo.

According to the tradition of the Thousand Hunts lineage, hunting nightmare-level monsters requires the entire clan to simultaneously abandon their current tasks and hunt together.

If an A-level ability user were to join, it would not only give the other members of the race time to do other things, but also give them the ability to confront the Nightmare-level supernatural beings head-on.

Thinking of this, Chikuri nodded.

"it is good."

"I will arrange everything."

"Just disguise your identity and come with me."

There was also a small personal motive behind this.

The mother only instructed them to conceal from Natsumi Rinri the fact that Natsumi Hanae was the lord of Natsumi Mountain.

However, in order to learn from her mother, she chose to hide the information that the Thousand Hunting lineage had submitted to the Lord of Xiahuo Mountain, and the little mischievous soul in her heart was burning fiercely.

She took the first step, a slight smile playing on her lips, and walked towards the room without a door.

Summer Rin felt that Chikari's emotions were a bit strange, but she didn't think much of it and followed closely behind.

at the same time.

Summer Day Liu was hurrying to the side house used for receiving guests.

He arrived at the vast summer mansion in just a few minutes and immediately spoke to one of the summer housekeepers in the room.

"Summon the Kujo family to come here to see me."

Although he was in a hurry, he couldn't show it.

Furthermore, he could not be impolite or improper. As the head of the Natsumi family, he did not even personally greet Kujo Kaname when he came, let alone a servant of the Kujo Zaibatsu.

"Yes."

A butler from the Kyokotsu lineage with blond hair responded.

Like a swift cheetah, it moved away quickly, leaving behind a trail of afterimages.

Before long, a man dressed in the uniform of the Kujo Zaibatsu arrived in front of Natsumi Yoriyuki.

When facing the head of another family, Kujo Yusuke did not kneel, but bowed slightly.

"Master Xia, the Master has instructed me to deliver some messages to you."

"I hope you won't get too agitated after hearing this."

"Firstly, when he was at the Superpower Association, the patriarch not only encountered Mad Bone Wolf, but also Summer Tiger."

"They participated in the operation to annihilate Natsuri Rinrei along with the head of the family."

Upon hearing this, Xia Yuanliu nodded; this possibility was within his expectations.

In fact, he had already sent people to the Superpower Association to look for Summer Tiger, but the Superpower Association was located in a place with an A-level president, so he could not use his spatial abilities to directly teleport people there.

The rule is that if there is an A-level city, other forces should not use spatial ability users to teleport without authorization, otherwise it will be considered a provocation.

After all, if the two major forces were to clash, space-type ability users could teleport directly into the heart of the enemy territory.

Moreover, the relationship between the Supernatural Abilities Association and the Kujo Zaibatsu and Natsuhi Zaibatsu is currently very sensitive.

"go on."

Xia Yuanliu's aged voice sounded steady as he began to speak.

Upon hearing this, Kujo Yusuke glanced at Natsumi Yoriyuki's expression, pursed his lips, swallowed, and continued speaking.

"Second..."

"Summer Tiger is most likely dead."

"He died at the hands of the Lord of Xiahuo Mountain."

……

……

Chapter 176: The Rebirth of the Eight-Headed Serpent

"Crack—!"

Upon hearing this, Xia Yuanliu suddenly tightened his right finger, leaving a finger mark on the armrest of the chair in an instant.

A murderous intent emanated from his body, filling the air above the room.

Kujo Yusuke suddenly felt short of breath, and a strong sense of threat and oppression rose up within him, as if a thousand pounds were weighing on his shoulders.

Just as he was about to kneel down because of this.

Xia Yuanliu realized his loss of composure and quickly dissipated his murderous intent, at which point Kujo Yusuke gradually returned to normal.

Xia Yuanliu still harbored a sliver of hope.

Nine times out of ten, this means there is a glimmer of hope, indicating that Kujou Shinobu did not witness Natsumi Yasutora's death firsthand.

He needs more information to confirm whether Summer Tiger is alive or dead.

Moreover, there was something else that Xia Yuanliu was particularly concerned about.

He asked in a deep, aged voice.

"You mean, Xia Ritaihu might have died at the hands of the Lord of Xiahuo Mountain?"

"The Lord of Xiahuo Mountain also appeared at the Supernatural Abilities Association?!"

Kujo Yusuke didn't understand why Natsumi Yoriyuki was so fixated on this.

However, this was indeed the information that Kujou Shinobu had given him, and there was no way to refute it by making up reasons, so he nodded slightly.

"Yes."

Upon hearing that single word, Xia Yuanliu's mind raced with a flurry of thoughts.

Because of preconceived notions.

Previously, he had already developed suspicions about the Kujo Zaibatsu, feeling that they had betrayed the alliance between the two companies.

The fact that the Lord of Xiahuo Mountain could appear in the Supernatural Ability Association and interfere with their operation was extremely unusual.

It's important to understand that this operation was extremely sudden; the plan was formulated the day before and executed at breakneck speed the very next day.

And very few people knew about it, only a handful.

Apart from their respective heads of household, it is estimated that only those involved in the operation knew about this plan.

However, this secretive plan involved numerous A-ranks besieging a peak B-rank, Summer Rinrei, and even had Kimura Madoka as a backstabber.

They all failed.

Even the lord of Xiahuo Mountain has arrived at the Superpower Association.

This means that the intelligence was very likely to be leaked.

The person who leaked the information was among those involved in the operation. The Summer Zaibatsu and Summer Mountain had a blood feud, having killed most of the mainstays of the B-rank. Kyokotsu Wolf was also a master of the Kyokotsu lineage.

Both the Mad Bone lineage and the Water Life lineage are the lineages that have followed the Summer Direct Lineage the longest, and the best among them would never betray it.

As for the claim that Summer Tiger leaked information, nothing could be more ridiculous.

The person who leaked the information is now missing? Their fate is unknown.

So……

All of this combined means that the only entity at fault is the Kujo Zaibatsu.

The Kujo Zaibatsu brought along only Kujo Toru's trusted confidants.

The answer is obvious.

The information provided to the lord of Xiahuo Mountain was an act of Kujo Kaname's own initiative.

The goal, of course, is to completely sever the Xia family's connection to outstanding family heads, thereby causing their subsequent decline in social standing!

After all, as two of the four major conglomerates, although they cooperate, there are more business clashes and frictions between them. If one weakens or even disappears, the other will become more arrogant.

The cake has already been divided up. If you want to get a new cake, you'll have to take what other people have.

If we stand from the perspective of the Kujo Zaibatsu...

There is no need for the other party to completely oppose Xia Huoshan now, because Xia Huoshan's biggest enemy is the Xia Ri Zaibatsu.

Summer sun rose in the willow tree, lost in thought.

However, he could not make such a hasty conclusion based on his own speculation that the Kujo Zaibatsu and Natsume had a relationship of exchanging interests.

After all, even if this relationship were exposed, it would not benefit the Summer Zaibatsu in any way.

Although Xiahuo Mountain is a newly emerging force without any deities, it must be said that if it were to engage in battle with the outside world, based on the rumored strength of the Xiahuo Mountain lord...

It's likely that even one A-grade weapon wouldn't be enough to defeat the opponent; it would probably require two A-grade weapons.

Of course, he still needs to confirm.

Does the Kujo Zaibatsu really have some kind of financial entanglement with Natsume?

Although her mind was filled with a myriad of thoughts, and her body still lingered with the extreme pain from the previous hidden injuries, Xia Yuanliu's expression remained normal, with only the muscles under her brown kimono twitching subconsciously.
