Black Myth: The Legend of Tianpeng Seeking Demons

Feifei rubbed his backside and limped out of the alley, feeling extremely annoyed. He had originally wanted to show off in front of everyone, but instead he made a fool of himself and almost got arrested as a monster.

"It's all your fault! Why did you have to turn into a nine-tailed fox!" Zhu Feifei couldn't help but complain to the Ring Spirit Xiaobai.

"How can you blame me? It's all because you got carried away!" The Ringwraith's voice was full of disdain. "Besides, your primary task right now is to stop 'Moonshadow,' not to show off here!"

“I know, I know!” Zhu Feifei sighed, “But ‘Moon Shadow’ is hiding in Tokyo Tower right now, and we have no way to get close to him!”

"You idiot, have you forgotten the information 'All-Knowing Scholar' gave you?" Little White Ringwraith reminded him, "The 'Moon Shadow' ritual requires the special energy field of Tokyo Tower, as well as the sacrifice Minako Aso..."

"Wait!" Zhu Feifei suddenly interrupted Little White the Ringwraith, "You mean the sacrifice? Minako Aso? I remember we met her in Shibuya, and she was kidnapped by the 'Dark Moon' organization!"

“That’s right, so we must find Minako Aso as soon as possible and stop the ‘Moon Shadow’ ritual!” said the Ringwraith.

"But how can we find her?" Zhu Feifei frowned. "Tokyo is so big, and the 'Dark Moon' organization is so mysterious. It's like looking for a needle in a haystack!"

Just then, Zhu Feifei's gaze fell on a television screen by the roadside. A news report was playing on the screen, and the protagonist of the news was none other than Minako Aso.

"...It is reported that popular idol Minako Aso went missing recently, and the police are conducting a full-scale search and rescue operation. Witnesses claim that Aso was seen in Shibuya before her disappearance and had contact with a mysterious man..."

"A mysterious man?" Zhu Feifei's heart skipped a beat. "Could it be me?"

"Who cares? This is a great opportunity!" said Little White Ringwraith. "We can use the power of the media to lure the snake out of its hole!"

"You mean..." Zhu Feifei seemed to understand what the Ringwraith Xiaobai meant.

“That’s right, we can proactively contact the media, expose the conspiracy of the ‘Dark Moon’ organization and ‘Moonshadow’, and point the finger at Tokyo Tower!” said the Ringwraith White. “In this way, ‘Moonshadow’ will have no choice but to take action, and we will have a chance to find Minako Aso and stop her ritual!”

"Great idea!" Zhu Feifei exclaimed excitedly, "I, Old Zhu... no, Zhu Feifei, am so clever!"

"Stop being so vain, let's get started!" Little White Ringwraith urged.

Zhu Feifei quickly hailed a taxi and rushed towards the nearest television station...

"Driver, please go to Tokyo TV Station, and be quick!" Zhu Feifei jumped into the taxi and said hurriedly, while gesturing to speed up, as if he were possessed by Takumi Fujiwara.

The driver glanced at him in the rearview mirror, a hint of doubt in his eyes, but still quickly started the car. These days, he'd seen all sorts of strange people; as long as they paid, they didn't care whether they wanted to save the world or destroy the earth.

"Xiaobai, do you think our trick will really lure out 'Moon Shadow'?" Zhu Feifei asked, sitting in the back seat, still feeling a little uneasy.

"Don't worry, 'Moonshadow' is all about ritual. He'll definitely be restless if his plan gets exposed," the Ringwraith said confidently. "Besides, we also have the key to his plan—the news that Minako Aso has been kidnapped at Tokyo Tower!"

"I hope so," Zhu Feifei thought to herself, gazing at the scenery rushing past the window.

Soon, the taxi arrived at Tokyo TV. Zhu Feifei paid the fare and rushed into the TV station building.

"Hey young man, you can't just go in like that!" The taxi driver, seeing Zhu Feifei's hurried manner, was also worried for him.

"I need to see your manager! I have something important to reveal!" Zhu Feifei rushed to the front desk and said to the receptionist.

The receptionist looked at the energetic young man in front of her, somewhat puzzled: "Sir, what can I do for you? Do you need an appointment?"

"I can't make an appointment in time! It's an emergency! Lives are at stake!" Zhu Feifei spat as she spoke. "Tell me quickly, who's in charge here? I want to be on TV, I want to expose a shocking conspiracy!"

"This..." The receptionist was intimidated by Zhu Feifei's imposing manner and didn't know what to do for a moment.

At this moment, a middle-aged man in a suit walked over and asked, "What happened?"

"Director, this gentleman says he has something important to reveal and wants to be on TV," the receptionist said quickly.

"Oh?" The station director looked Zhu Feifei up and down and asked, "Sir, do you have something important to reveal?"

"I'm going to expose the conspiracy of the 'Dark Moon' organization!" Zhu Feifei said. "They kidnapped the popular idol Minako Aso and are attempting to use Tokyo Tower to perform an evil blood sacrifice ritual to summon the Nine-Tailed Fox!"

"What?!" The station manager and the receptionist were both stunned by Zhu Feifei's words.

"This is no joke!" the station director said seriously. "Do you have any evidence?"

“Of course I have evidence!” Zhu Feifei said. “I personally witnessed Minako Aso being kidnapped by the ‘Dark Moon’ organization, and I also know their plans. If you don’t believe me, you can ask the Demon Exorcism Bureau!”

Seeing how certain Zhu Feifei was, the station director began to waver. He pondered for a moment and said, "Alright, I'll give you a chance. If you can convince me, I'll let you appear on television."

"That's great!" Zhu Feifei said excitedly, "Thank you, Director!"

"However, you must understand that the authenticity of the news is the most important thing. If you dare to talk nonsense, you will bear the consequences!" the station director warned.

"Don't worry, Director, every word I said is true!" Zhu Feifei patted her chest and assured him.

The station director took Zhu Feifei to his office and had someone bring him paper and pen, saying, "Now, you can tell me everything you know."

Zhu Feifei nodded, and then began to recount the conspiracy of the "Dark Moon" organization, as well as the details of the "Moon Shadow" plan to use Tokyo Tower and Minako Aso to carry out a blood sacrifice ritual.

The station director listened and took notes, his expression growing increasingly grave. He hadn't expected this seemingly ordinary young man to know so much inside information.

"...That's how it happened," Zhu Feifei said. "If you don't stop 'Moon Shadow' soon, the entire city of Tokyo, and even the whole of Japan, will be plunged into a huge crisis!"

The station director put down his pen, pondered for a long time, and then said, "Your revelation is very important, and I will arrange for you to appear on television as soon as possible. However, to ensure the authenticity of the news, we need to conduct some verification."

“No problem, go ahead and verify!” Zhu Feifei said. “I guarantee that every word I said is true!”

“Very good.” The station director nodded, then said to his assistant, “Xiao Zhang, contact the Demon Extermination Bureau immediately to verify the information this Mr. Zhu provided. Xiao Li, notify the production team to prepare a special news live broadcast in an hour. Xiao Wang, go and organize this… Mr. Zhu’s ‘deeds’ and write a captivating news report! Hurry! Everyone get moving! This is big news!”

"Yes, Director!" the assistants replied quickly and then got to work.

"Mr. Zhu, please wait a moment," the station director said to Zhu Feifei. "We will arrange for you to appear on television as soon as possible."

"Okay, I'll wait." Zhu Feifei nodded, secretly pleased with herself.

"Now, that 'Moonshadow' guy should be getting restless, right?" Zhu Feifei thought to herself. "Once I'm on TV, I'll expose all your schemes and see how arrogant you can still be!"

Little did he know that at that very moment, in some corner of Tokyo, a mysterious figure dressed in black robes was coldly watching his every move through a television screen.

"Zhu Feifei, do you think you can stop me like this? How naive!" The mysterious man's lips curled into a sinister smile. "The show has only just begun!"
