Zongman: Harem's Music

Nishimiya Tsutomu paused and asked, "Why do you think I did this?"

"strength?"

"That's not bad..."

Xigong Siyi then asked, "Then let me ask this another way. Why do you think I pursue power?"

This question is a bit too broad...

Looking at Nishimiya Tsukasa's face, Kikyo thought about it.

In this world, there are many humans and monsters who pursue power. Money, power, status, fame, and knowledge are all abstract forms of power. If we only look at the power of image, the witches, priests, wizards, and Yin-Yang masters pursue power in order to seek knowledge, fight against monsters, and protect the peace. Monsters do this to gain power longer, to get more, and to dominate the world.

“Other people have asked me this question too!”

Nishimiya Tsukazu recalled what Michiru asked him at Shotokan a long time ago, before he went to the world of "Attack on Titan".

"She asked me: Why do you work so hard? Isn't it better to take a break?"

"I remember this is how I replied to post a book! Group 9: 8, 02:0585/6, by Dai Dai. Posted, from the source!"

"For the people I care about and the people who care about me!"

Nishimiya Tsukasa said as he looked at Kikyo: "But maybe we should change it now and add one more rule!"

Nishimiya Tsuyoshi gazed at the small road leading through the quiet forest: "So that the people I care about and the people who care about me can live better, so that I can see the wider world and absorb more unknown nutrients!"

""

I don’t know if it was because of my body nurtured by Xigong Siyi’s spiritual power, or my own will, but an inexplicable sense of identification and the urge to follow him swirled in my heart.

She was trying her best to restrain herself.

"Kikyo-senpai!"

Nishimiya Siyi continued, "Do you want to obtain a real flesh and blood body and live as a human being?"

Kikyo understood what Nishimiya Tsukasa really wanted to express.

If possible....you are also someone I care about!

My strength also exists for you!

Kikyo smiled bitterly: A fox half-demon? What a cunning fellow!

The last bit of hesitation in my heart collapsed...

"Actually...Shikigami are pretty good too!"

Chapter 353 The storm is coming!

Mount Fuji is located in Rishiya Prefecture, which was the Musashi Province of this era and is now Musashi Prefecture. It is a mountain that has had extraordinary significance to Japan since ancient times and is even known as a sacred mountain.

The reason for this is probably because it is the highest mountain in Japan and an active volcano that may erupt at any time due to plate movement. Ancient humans, out of fear of natural disasters, gave it many mythological colors that did not exist.

In the world of "Inuyasha" created under the influence of this era and cultural background, it is indeed different from ordinary mountains. Nishimiya Tsuyoshi discovered it when he took the lava deep underground and the water from the five lakes.

Whether it is lava or the water of the five lakes, they all possess strange energies with corresponding characteristics.

"Go!"

At the foot of Mount Fuji, Nishimiya Tsuyoshi released the thousand paper cranes with stored instructions.

Kikyo, who was standing by, was curious: "Are you sending a message to someone?"

"That's right!"

Nishimiya Tsuyoshi smiled and retracted his extended right hand. "Even famous items like the Ten-fist Sword, the Buliu Sword, and the Killing Stone are not so easy to find. How did they appear? How long have they been there? In what hands did they appear in the recorded documents? I think my friend Shingen-kun will help me investigate everything and then bring them to me!"

Musashi Shingen, the most powerful feudal lord in Japan today. Kikyo, who had died and resurrected fifty years later in his territory, had also heard of this name. She had also heard that the martial priest was a guest of honor to the daimyo of various feudal states, including this great feudal lord. So, without giving it much thought, she asked, "Where are we going now? Back? Or should we go find the Immortal Master Park and the Demon Spirit Great Sage that Totosai mentioned?"

“Compared to these…”

Nishimiya Tsuyoshi extended his right hand towards Kikyo: "I think what we need most is a mount. Any suggestions?"

Kikyo naturally handed her left hand to Nishimiya Tsuyoshi, "Like Yanti and Yunmu?"

"Correct!"

"I remember there was an eagle demon in the mountains east of Musashi Province fifty years ago!"

"Fifty years ago....not very reliable!"

The two of them held hands and walked down the mountain at a leisurely pace.

"Master, are you listening to what I'm saying?"

"Hmmmm, cat, cat, cat, you're a raccoon cat, why are you afraid of cats? Shouldn't they be your distant relatives?"

"Ahhh, I told you it's not just any cat monster!"

One was a young wizard holding a long staff and wearing a cassock, and the other was a short and fat raccoon cat monster wearing a kimono going up the mountain. Nishimiya Tsuyoshi and Kikyo were going down the mountain, and the two sides met by chance.

Looking at the young wizard, Xigong Siyi recognized his identity at a glance: Maitreya...?

Kikyo whispered in Nishimiya Tsuyoshi's ear, "He has at least four pieces of the Four Souls Jade on him."

"Get ready to play the bad guy!"

Nishimiya Tsuyoshi responded, his eyes fell on the raccoon cat monster, and a hidden smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

""

Ah Ba suddenly felt a chill on his back and neck and subconsciously hid behind Maitreya.

Kikyo understood something and couldn't help laughing on her pretty face.

After seeing Nishimiya Tsuyoshi dressed as Kikyo, Miroku asked, "Are you two a priest and a miko? That's great! I was passing by at the foot of the mountain when I saw a gust of evil wind coming up the mountain, so I chased it... About half an hour ago. May I ask if you have seen it before?"

Half an hour ago...isn't it time for us to go up the mountain?

Kikyo looked at Nishimiya Tsuyoshi, and then at Miroku: The monster that this wizard is chasing is very likely us!

"I've never seen a wizard chasing monsters with monsters!"

Nishimiya Tsukazu let go of Kikyo's hand, and replaced it with a sheathed katana that appeared out of thin air.

Miroku was stunned for a moment: "A priest who uses a knife... with this outfit... could it be that you are..."

The raccoon cat Ah Ba behind Maitreya also realized something. He couldn’t be so unlucky! ! !

Seeing the two's unsurprising reactions, Nishimiya Tsuji drew his [Sujumaru Tsuneji] and said, "Humans who associate with evil monsters are guilty of the same crime as the monsters!"

"The divine robe with the Higanbana pattern and the katana with the Buddhist beads around the handle, there's no mistake!" Maitreya asked tentatively, "Are you the Martial Priest Nishimiya Tsuyoshi!?"

Nishimiya Siyi: "So what if it's me?"

Asking for flowers

"I heard you're collecting the Four Souls Jade fragments, and your companions include shrine maidens and exorcists, but also some insignificant monsters!"

Maitreya said anxiously, "Aba is not an evil monster. Not to mention that he doesn't have the ability to harm people, he doesn't even have the courage to do so. At best, he just likes to eat and drink. I guarantee this with my life!!"

Master Maitreya....

Behind Maitreya, the raccoon cat Aba looked touched.

Kikyo stepped forward at the right moment and said, "There's really no evil in him. He doesn't look like a monster that could harm people!"

“Is that so…?”

Nishimiya Tsutomu sheathed his katana expressionlessly.

Only then did Maitreya and Aba breathe a sigh of relief.

The momentum just now... was truly terrifying!!

"I wonder what brings you two to Fugaku?"

Xigong Siyi said calmly: "Get materials to forge a sword!"

It's said that Wu Shenguan loves wielding swords, and that he collected five legendary swords, known as the Five Swords of the World... and it seems to be true!

As Maitreya thought about it, he was more certain of Nishimiya Siyi's identity, and then he took out four fragments of the Four Souls Jade from his arms: "I think there is no one in the world who is more suitable than you to protect the Four Souls Jade!"

The boy is really on the right track!

Nishimiya Tsuyoshi, whose purpose was exactly this, was secretly delighted.

"Fragments of the Four Souls Jade?"

Nishimiya Tsuyoshi said as he took out a fifth of the Four Souls Jade from his collar: "I am indeed collecting it. After all, it was me who broke it into pieces!"

"What a... big piece..." Ah Ba was surprised.

Xigong Siyi looked at him and asked, "Are you interested in this thing?"

Ah Ba shook his head repeatedly: "No, that's not the case!"

"As expected of the Lord Martial Priest, have you collected one-fifth of the required quantity?"

Maitreya said to himself: "Please accept this humble help from me!"

Nishimiya Tsuyoshi took the fragment without any pretense: "What's your name?"

"Maitreya!"

"I remember. If you run into trouble, you can come to Kofu, Lishan Shrine, or Kikyo Village to find me!"

Nishimiya Tsukasa maintained his aloof image and said to Kikyo, "Let's go!"

Chapter 354 Six-Party Cooperation (Part 1)

After walking only five meters, Nishimiya Jiyi whispered to Kikyo, "Good acting!"

Nishimiya Tsuyoshi was responsible for playing the good guy, causing trouble in the name of Ah Ba's monster, thereby hinting at his identity as a martial priest in various ways, and then letting Kikyo, who played the bad guy, come out to turn hostility into friendship and obtain the fragments of the Four Souls Jade without bloodshed.

As for the first time, the two of them undoubtedly had a tacit understanding.

Kikyo rolled her eyes at Nishimiya Tsukasa and said, "Do you often do this kind of thing?"

“We’ve done similar things a lot!”

Xigong Siyi, however, was not ashamed of this and said with a smile, "Reputation is something that can be achieved without bloodshed in situations like this!"

"If he didn't give you the Four Souls Jade, what would you do? Take it by force?"

"How is that possible? Don't I have any dignity?"

Nishimiya Tsuyoshi raised an eyebrow. "If he doesn't behave, if I have time, I'll probably lure a group of monsters to snatch his "One One Seven," and then I'll come out and snatch the monsters. If I don't have time... I think Naraku, who is also collecting the fragments of the Four Souls Jade, will help me solve this problem!"

Kikyo raised an eyebrow.

Xigong Siyi said angrily: "Don't imitate me!"

A smile appeared at the corners of Kikyo's eyes and eyebrows.

This kind of deceptive behavior, this kind of non-serious expression, she had never done it before, but now it seems... unexpectedly interesting!

"Phew, you scared me to death!"

On the other side, Ah Ba sat down on the ground: "I didn't die at the hands of the Western Leopard Cat, but I almost died at the hands of the Martial God's sword. Why am I so unlucky!"

"Nishinomiya cat demon?"

The half-demon fox's gifted hearing carried these words into Nishimiya Tsuyoshi's ears, causing him to stop in his tracks.

Kikyo looked at Nishimiya Tsukasa in surprise as he suddenly became serious.

"Wait me a moment!"

Xigong Siyi said something to Kikyo, then turned and walked towards Ah Ba: "The Western cat demon you just mentioned, are you referring to the Western Leopard Cat Clan?"

"Yes, yes!"

Xigong Siyi walked up to him and said seriously, "Tell me more details!"

"You mean the village might be in danger?"

Kikyo, who was held in Nishimiya Tsukasa's arms, asked as the humanoid youkai's demonic power ball flew back to the village.

"That's right!"

Xi Gong Si nodded and said, "The Leopard Cat Clan is a demon tribe that originated in the Four Kingdoms of the West. As far as I know, their leader was seriously injured and killed by the leader of the demon dog clan, Dou Ya Wang, hundreds of years ago. They were active once fifty years ago, with the purpose of finding Dou Ya Wang's descendants to avenge their leader. Now, they are active in the east for one reason."

Kikyo realized: "Fragment of the Four Souls Jade!"

Nishimiya Tsukasa: "The ones who have the most Four Souls Jewels are us and Naraku. Naraku has been hiding his whereabouts, but we haven't."
