Fox Saiguu: I Brought Fried Tofu Back to See You, Little Yae

On Minato Bai Ye's lower abdomen, Lady Guuji did not detect any of the foul smell of blood.

Instead, a refreshing fragrance emerges.

At this moment, Lady Guuji suddenly realized that he wasn't just a soul, so why did he still have the ability to perceive smell?

Although puzzled, the smell was undeniably entering his nasal cavity.

Ah, that feels so good!

It's like a cat seeing catnip. It's so rare to be able to smell this scent in this area dominated by the 'darkness' of disaster.

However, she still knew what was important. She looked down at Bai Ye's abdomen, wanting to see if he had any wounds.

No, absolutely not, there wasn't a single wound on Bai Ye's lower abdomen.

There wasn't a single scratch on her fair and delicate abdomen. Her smooth, firm skin was flawless, flat without any excess fat.

It looks incredibly cute.

Lady Guuji looked at it and couldn't help but stick out his tongue and lick it.

Bai Ye quickly shrank back.

He stared wide-eyed at the Lady Guuji.

No, what do you mean by that action?

The fox's small tongue has a unique tactile feel.

"What are you afraid of? I'm quite old, old enough to be your great-grandmother. This is just me showing affection from an elder, my little benefactor, don't be shy."

Looking at the shy Bai Ye, Lady Guuji licked his tongue again, a charming look appearing on his handsome face.

Then,

Hagintos then spoke from inside Bai Ye's body.

She addressed the Lady Guuji, saying, "Age? What age? I'm still Bai Ye's teacher. How many generations of advantage are you trying to take from him?"

Anyone who dares to harass my student will be met with my firm.

Because they were both souls, Lady Guuji was acutely aware of Hagintos's appearance. Hearing that there was such a childlike female soul within Bai Ye's body, she asked curiously, "Are you my benefactor's teacher? You look very young!"

"Hmph! But in terms of age, I'm more than old enough to be your great-great-grandmother." Hagintos used the same words as Lady Guuji. Finally, she added a self-introduction, "I am Hagintos."

"Hagintos ..." Lady Guuji quickly pondered the name, then his teasing expression vanished.

The Gods Hagintos!?

Damn it, why is it this woman?

Although she was a youkai from Inazuma, she was still a youkai who had experienced the Archon War. She was very clear about Hagintos's reputation; his vast alliance with Morax, Makoshort, the Dragon King Azhdaha, and the Adepti was invincible even in Liyue, the region where the Archon War was most intense.

Lady Guuji couldn't really act like a senior in front of her.

However, she still smiled and said to Hagintos, "Teacher Hagintos, you are wonderful."

"I'm not your teacher!" Hagintos crossed his arms and turned his head away.

"My benefactor's teacher should naturally be respected as my teacher."

Lady Guuji bowed with both hands, following the etiquette of Liyue, to greet Hagintos.

"Really? I remember when I saw Beelzebul, you were still like this. I'm so happy."

Hagintos seemed quite pleased, and then reminded Lady Guuji and others to do the same.

Since Lady Guuji and Beelzebul were friends, Hagintos simply took full advantage of the situation. And incidentally, he also profited from Shadow's gain.

Seeing the two clashing, Bai Ye was at a loss for words. He quickly changed the subject, saying, "Let's go to the salt shop first, otherwise we might get infected by the 'darkness' here."

"Yes, my benefactor, I will do whatever you say."

Lady Guuji continued to nod.

"Stop flattering my benefactor, it makes me feel very uncomfortable listening to you like this!"

I felt extremely uncomfortable with the flirtatious remarks made by the Lady Guuji in the Bai Ye.

In particular, he could still remember the sensation he had felt in his abdomen just now.

It made him think of those foxes who had repaid their debts of gratitude.

"No, my benefactor, what should I say? Or should I ask you to do something else?" Lady Guuji's fox eyes were almost narrowed, and as she leaned on Bai Ye's shoulder, she was about to say something extraordinary.

Bai Ye quickly interrupted, saying to Lady Guuji, "Sister Lady Guuji, if you ask me Bai Ye will be fine."

"Alright, then I'll be your benefactor from now on. Sigh, young people these Bai Ye are so shy." Seeing that he had teased her enough, Lady Guuji let her Bai Ye.

It's clearly because you're too shameless...

Bai Ye stared wide-eyed at Lady Guuji.

Lady Guuji shook his finger as he walked into the salt room.

"I wonder what this Liyue boy's background is. Whenever I see him, I always want to get closer and tease him a bit. It's as if watching him blush gives me a sense of accomplishment. And I must say, his scent is really unpleasant to smell."

As he walked, Lady Guuji pondered in his heart.

Walking behind Lady Guuji, Bai Ye could carefully observe her.

She has soft, shoulder-length brown hair, a bright and charming appearance, a tail behind her, and a constant smile on her lips. Her eyes are lively and expressive. She wears loose and neat shrine maiden attire, which completely conceals her slender figure.

It seems that Yae Miko is from the same clan, should be serious.

Of course, this only applies to appearances.

As they entered the house, the spirits of the samurai surrounded Bai Ye and Lady Guuji.

"Lord Lady Guuji, you've regained consciousness!"

The first samurai to see Bai Ye was excitedly shouting to Lady Guuji -miya.

"Yes, I guess I'm back." Lady Guuji turned to look at Bai Ye. "By the way, how's the battle going in Liyue? Is it over? Are you coming to support Inazuma?"

"Lord Lady Guuji, um... it has been over a hundred years."

The samurai hesitated for a moment, then spoke to the Lady Guuji.

"What!? A hundred years have passed. Oh well, let's see what the world is like a hundred years from now."

Lady Guuji didn't seem to feel much about this.

She only has a handful of people left from her acquaintances from a hundred years ago. And they won't change much over the past century.

Lady Guuji looked at Bai Ye: "By the way, Bai Ye, now that we're all awake, can you take us out of here?"

"That's easy." Bai Ye nodded. "But can your body still find its owner? When the time comes, we'll put your soul back into the owner's body."

Lady Guuji quickly shook his head:

"No, after so long, it's probably been ruined by the 'darkness' by now. Forget about finding it, even if I did find it, I'd probably be missing an arm or a limp. I may not be as good-looking as Miyoshi Chiyo, but I'm not bad-looking either. Let me use that body, forget it."

Going any further is too dangerous; let's just leave now.

Lady Guuji blinked and thought to itself.

"Well, that's all we can do. When the time comes, after you get out, we'll go find Miss Ei again to make you a new body."

Bai Ye also agreed with the suggestion.

When it's time to make a body, you can watch and learn from the experience.

Bai Ye were to create a body now, the only thing she could do would be create a Gundam.

It's not that it's unusable, it's just that a cute girl turning into a Gundam might not be something many people could accept.

Wait, what if the pretty girl can't accept this...?

Bai Ye gazed at the souls of these samurai before him.

Would they be willing to become Gundams?

We'll discuss it with them after we get out.

"Alright, I'll definitely have to bother Ying a lot then. Hehe, she hasn't seen me in ages, so my sudden appearance this time will definitely give them a fright."

Lady Guuji nodded with a smile.

Afterwards, everyone rested in the house for a while.

The main issue is Bai Ye. Although the physical damage is gone, he has truly experienced the pain of having his internal organs pierced through his abdomen. He needs to recover a bit more now.

At that time, he also told Lady Guuji about what happened in Hanasato.

"If it weren't for her, I probably wouldn't have been able to find you."

"I never imagined that the memories I copied before being swallowed by the darkness could be this good," Lady Guuji said sincerely.

"So what are your plans to do then?"

"Well, let's think about it first. She exists because she depends on Inazuma's filth, and Inazuma can still delay for a while. Especially Bai Ye you caused such a ruckus in the 'darkness' this time, it's estimated that its contamination of Inazuma will slow down considerably. At that time, we might have other solutions."

Lady Guuji spoke to Bai Ye.

"Uh-huh."

Bai Ye nodded quickly.

He prefers happy endings and strives for everyone to survive. Among Hanasato who survived, there was one named Chika, and Bai Ye would never easily abandon her.

After resting for a while, Bai Ye led the others on the return journey.

Before setting off, he reminded the samurai, "By the way, I'm telling you, be very careful on this journey and don't get contaminated by the 'darkness.' Although I have a way to deal with it, I believe you don't want to see that scene."

Upon hearing Bai Ye's words, the earliest samurai nodded hurriedly.

He still has six wounds on his body.

The samurai all nodded in agreement.

However, I still have some questions.

At this moment, Lady Guuji slipped directly to Bai Ye's side, even taking Bai Ye's hand in his.

"My dear benefactor, I entrust my safety entirely to you. You must protect my frail body."

She whispered in his ear, her breath sweet as orchids.

Even after saying that, Lady Guuji playfully nibbled on Bai Ye's earlobe.

After finishing, she also assumed a defensive stance with her katana.

Her words just now were merely teasing Bai Ye; she still wanted to act on her own.

The group began to move forward, and the samurai followed Bai Ye's instructions, trying their best to avoid the 'darkness'. However, even with their utmost caution, some were still inevitably caught in its traps.

Seeing that they had been tricked, Bai Ye walked up to them with a smile, sword in hand.

With a 'whoosh,' a sword strike brought them back to their senses.

Lady Guuji watched Bai Ye's actions and couldn't help but gasp in astonishment.

The fox's tail swayed as it nestled close to Bai Ye.

She doesn't care about being hurt, but she doesn't want to suffer this kind of unfortunate harm.

As they walked, Bai Ye continued to chop, and soon they all reached the boundary.

"Let's go, we're finally out!"

Bai Ye looked at the several figures on the other side and said.

As they were about to leave, the samurai were all moved to tears.

After being in darkness for so long, they thought they were about to completely perish. But unexpectedly, a glimmer of hope appeared, and they had a chance to see the light of day again.

Lady Guuji's lips also unconsciously curled up.

Subsequently,

Under Bai Ye's command, the warriors left the 'dark' location one by one.

"What's going on? Why are so many souls appearing?!"

Hu Tao watched as one soul after another approached, and said in bewilderment.

As the head of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor, she knew this best.

Didn't Bai Ye only bring Lady Guuji with him?

The souls of the samurai left the 'darkness' and came to the Land of Inazuma.

Hu Tao, Shenhe, Hanasato, and Kamisato Ayaka all saw it clearly.

"Could these be the samurai who fought against 'Darkness' a hundred years ago?"

Kamisato Ayaka covered her mouth as she watched the samurai.

She gained a deeper understanding of the brutality of the war.

Their souls are covered in wounds, and they have all been through countless hardships, yet these wounds on their bodies still look as if they were just cut.

"Wow, we're finally out!"

Lady Guuji was the last soul to emerge, and she excitedly looked around after coming out.

Looking left and right, I can't get enough of seeing the blue sky again.

Bai Ye was the last to come out. As soon as he did, Hu Tao Bai Ye asked him, "What's going on?"

"This place isn't just home to the Lady Guuji..."

Bai Ye told Hu Tao everything that had happened inside.

However, Bai Ye did not mention his injury.

However, Hu Tao still noticed the tear in Bai Ye's clothes.

The young swordsman is almost turning into a beggar boy.

"Why does it feel so dangerous to go inside this time? No, next time I must make Bai Ye find a way to take me in with me."

Hu Tao thought to herself.

On the surface, she still pointed to the souls of the samurai and said to Bai Ye, "By the way, these samurai, can we make a fortune from the business of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor?"

Bai Ye was still pondering whether to place those souls into the robot's body to continue their activities, so he said to Hu Tao:

"Let's put this matter aside for now. I'll take them to Grand Narukami Shrine first. Also, let these samurai's descendants meet their ancestors."

"Mmm." Lady Guuji walked over at this moment.

Looking at Inazuma City in the distance, Lady Guuji, chin in hand, said to Bai Ye, "Before going to Grand Narukami Shrine, I'd like to buy some things."

"What is that?"

Bai Ye asked Lady Guuji Zhaigong.

"Before I left Grand Narukami Shrine Taisha and fought the battlefield of 'Darkness,' I promised to bring back fried tofu for the Eighth Divine Child. I am a person who keeps my promises, and I am determined to bring back fried tofu this time."

Lady Guuji said with a smile.
