Under the night Yasohachi Bridge, gravel and broken wood were scattered on the ground, as if telling the story of the thrilling battle just now.

The breeze blew by, bringing up bursts of dust, adding a bit of desolation and desolation to the ruins.

"Yuanyuan, there is nothing here. What are we doing here?"

The girl whispered to the goldfish Shikigami beside her. Her voice was clear and sweet, like a spring stream, bringing a bit of life to this dull night.

The goldfish Shikigami beside him swung his tail gently in the air, swam back and forth a few times on the ruins of Yasohachi Bridge, and then returned to the girl's side.

"Huayin, let me say it again, don't call me Yuanyuan, my name is Kenjaku."

Kenjaku's voice sounded directly in Huayin's mind, with a hint of anger in her voice.

The communication between Jujutsu Sorcerer and Shikigami does not require language, and can be completely communicated through telepathy.

But Huayin likes to speak out what's on her mind, which makes her feel like she's chatting with a friend.

However, Huayin just smiled and said mischievously, "Okay, Yuanyuan."

Kenjaku's face was instantly covered with black lines. As Jujutsu Sorcerer a thousand years ago, it should have been majestic and solemn, but now it was almost collapsed by a little girl.

"How could there be such a disgusting creature as a human cub?" Kenjaku cursed in his heart countless times.

Recalling that year, after he escaped from Kamo Mitsuki and others, he happened to meet Hanayin who had the talent of Jujutsu Sorcerer.

He thought he could easily devour this little girl, then find a safe place to hide, and then slowly accumulate strength to prepare for a comeback.

It just backfired.

Unexpectedly, Huayin actually summoned a goldfish Shikigami to resist Kenjaku's parasitic Cursed Technique for her at the critical moment.

Kenjaku There was not much Cursed Energy left at that time. If the Cursed Technique that had already been activated was interrupted, the remaining Cursed Energy might not be able to support him to use the parasitic Cursed Technique again.

But if he doesn't change his body immediately, he will definitely die when Kamo Mitsuki three people catch up.

So Kenjaku made a prompt decision and simply parasitized Huayin's Shikigami.

In fact, what Kenjaku did was also part of a gamble.

After all, he had only used the parasitic Cursed Technique on Jujutsu Sorcerer. He could not guarantee whether Cursed Technique could be successfully activated against Cursed Spirit or Shikigami, a life form composed of pure Cursed Energy.

But at that time, the arrow was already on the string and had to be fired.

Fortunately, he once again received the favor of the God of Destiny, allowing him to successfully activate Cursed Technique.

However, it didn't take long for him to discover the price of doing so.

Kenjaku originally planned to parasitize Shikigami first. Once the limelight is over, Shikigami can regain his freedom through the Devourer.

The other Shikigami can only operate based on the Cursed Energy provided by Jujutsu Sorcerer, but Kenjaku is different. It can generate Cursed Energy by itself and does not rely on Jujutsu Sorcerer.

Moreover, he can also act by his own will and is not under the control of Huayin, but he cannot leave Huayin too far.

As long as he successfully devours Huayin, this restriction will be gone and he will be completely free.

But he didn't do that.

The reason is that he found that he had completely turned into a Shikigami.

Originally, Kenjaku's body was a brain, and his Cursed Technique was engraved on the brain.

But when he parasitized the goldfish Shikigami, he found that although his soul successfully swallowed the will of the goldfish Shikigami, his original brain was missing.

Kenjaku didn't understand the reason for a while.

But he quickly calmed down and tried to analyze it.

It should be that the brain structure of goldfish is different from that of humans, which caused his Cursed Technique to have an accident when it took effect.

In other words, Kenjaku has now completely turned into a Shikigami, and the parasitic Cursed Technique can no longer be used.

Once he devours Huayin, he will completely turn into Cursed Spirit, and his strength will only be at the level of Grade 3 Cursed Spirit at most. Any Jujutsu Sorcerer he encounters can exorcise him.

Therefore, he planned to maintain the status quo and cultivate Hanayin well.

At least when Kanayin grows to Special Grade, his strength will be Special Grade by then.

When the time comes to bite the master again, he will directly become Special Grade Cursed Spirit.

Huayin's talent itself is pretty good, and with the guidance of his thousand-year-old Jujutsu Sorcerer, it shouldn't take long to become Special Grade.

Kenjaku I have been waiting for a thousand years, but I still have some patience and perseverance.

Moreover, Kenjaku is now Huayin's Shikigami. Although she has a certain degree of autonomy, Huayin can also let him die at a thought.

As long as Huayin's will is strong enough, Kenjaku can't refuse.

Therefore, Kenjaku also needs to cultivate the relationship with Huayin to give him a backup plan when he bites the master in the future.

After devouring Kanon's Shikigami, Kenjaku now continues to exist as Kanon's Shikigami.

At that time, Huayin was still young and ignorant. She only thought that her Shikigami could suddenly speak after swallowing the brain of a bad uncle.

From then on, she was convinced that no matter how Kenjaku explained, she could not change her mind.

Huayin always thought that the goldfish Shikigami was still her Yuanyuan.

"Yuanyuan, you said there are interesting things here, but we seem to be late. There is nothing here except rocks."

Huayin looked around, with a bit of disappointment in her eyes.

Kenjaku silently stared at the ruins of Yasohachi Bridge. It felt the fluctuations of Cursed Residue and Cursed Energy left at the scene, and thought to itself:

"Wan not only took the initiative to Incarnation, but was also killed, which means that Sukuna's Finger must have been taken away as well."

"Moreover, there seem to be traces of the barrier here. Why have I never seen this kind of barrier before?"

"Since there's nothing interesting here, where should we go next?"

Huayin turned around, looked at Yuanyuan and asked.

Her eyes were full of expectation and curiosity, as if she was full of endless yearning for the unknown world.

Kenjaku was stunned when asked.

Wan is one of the many ancient Jujutsu Sorcerer who signed a contract with him.

Kenjaku Check the status of these people every once in a while to prevent any accidents from happening.

By the way, look for the right Incarnated Vessel for these people.

But now I don't know who killed Wan, and Sukuna's Finger has also disappeared.

Kenjaku is aware of Wan's strength.

"Today Jujutsu Society wants to say that someone can solve Wan, and there are still traces of the barrier on the scene, then the most likely person is Kamo Mitsuki."

After Kenjaku was ambushed that year, he quickly investigated the entire incident.

That is to say, after that incident, the threat level of Kamo Mitsuki and others in his heart skyrocketed, so he naturally wanted to collect information on these people.

Kamo Mitsuki is a person who has the strength of Special Grade and is good at Barrier Technique.

"Is Kamo Mitsuki collecting Sukuna's Finger?"

Kenjaku doesn't believe that Wan was killed just because of bad luck.

Kamo Mitsuki must have learned from somewhere that there was Sukuna's Finger here, and then Wan was killed to protect Sukuna's Finger.

"What is Kamo Mitsuki collecting Sukuna's Finger for?"

"How did he know that Sukuna's Finger was here?"

"Since he knows this place, does he also know the positions of other fingers?"

Kenjaku thought of a lot in an instant, but the more he thought, the more doubts he had.

Huayin looked at Yuanyuan floating around her, and her head felt dizzy.
