The soldier behind was about to speak when Tongxin grabbed him, pushed him to the front, and bowed.

"Sir, we are not the ones who are looking for trouble. These are all Lord Kujou's orders; we are just following orders!"

Unlike the soldiers behind him who looked shocked, Tongxin's bent-over body was trembling slightly, and his face was covered in sweat.

The newcomers didn't know, but he, who had been a member of the Tongxin team for some time, clearly remembered the terrible scene at Kiminami Restaurant.

More than a dozen people were killed simply because they had inappropriate thoughts about the man in front of them...

"My lord, none of this has anything to do with those six. I brought them here to pursue Arataki Itto!"

Jiang Xiaofeng raised an eyebrow upon hearing this.

Although these guys can't see it.

Jiang Xiaofeng admires people with backbone.

He thought Tongxin was a talented person.

Do you want to gain power?

"?"

Tongxin slightly raised her head, only to be grabbed and lifted up by Jiang Xiaofeng.

Do you want to possess the power of Vision?

"You're great, I'm in a good mood, this is a rare opportunity."

When Jiang Xiaofeng left, the seven of them each had a low-quality version of the Void Eye.

"Sir, this..."

Several soldiers looked at Tongxin, wondering what had happened.

"Gentlemen, what happened today must not be told to anyone, do you understand?"

"Look at this thing in our hands, doesn't it look like the Vision?"

"Remember, from now on, if you want to take it with you, wrap it in a cloth and keep it close to your body. You absolutely cannot expose it, otherwise it might be confiscated like the Vision."

"All seven of us have this, so we have to remind each other."

"You all heard what that sir said: you absolutely cannot willingly give this to anyone else, not even your closest relatives."

Upon hearing this, all six soldiers nodded.

"Sir, you don't need to tell us; we already know the principle of not flaunting wealth, especially not in Inazuma."

"Yeah, yeah, we can't just hang it on our waists like those Vision holders and get it confiscated!"

"That's right!"

Seeing that everyone had relaxed, Tongxin breathed a sigh of relief.

"Alright, since that's the case, let heaven, earth, and we know what happened here. Let's retreat!"

"Clear!"

The seven people headed towards Inazuma City.

Jiang Xiaofeng had already arrived at Grand Narukami Shrine.

At this moment, Grand Narukami Shrine was brightly lit, no longer having extinguished most of its lights as before.

The reason, of course, is that Yae Miko was terrified and dared not venture into the dark again.

Jiang Xiaofeng carefully avoided a large group of white foxes lying in the open space of Grand Narukami Shrine and walked into the worship hall.

Hanasato, Kitsui -Kitsune Saiguu, and Mikoshi Chiyo are all staying here.

Kitsune Saiguu held a pink fox in its arms.

None of the three were asleep, so they all greeted Jiang Xiaofeng when they saw him.

Only the pink fox saw Jiang Xiaofeng and was so frightened that she jumped up and tried to leap out of the window, but was caught by Kitsune Saiguu and began to comfort her.

Hanasato and Mikoshi Chiyo looked at Jiang Xiaofeng with strange expressions, and then, considering Jiang Xiaofeng's personality...

It really seems like something Jiang Xiaofeng would do.

The three of them looked rather grim.

Especially the Kitsune Saiguu.

How could anyone be happy to see their child being bullied?

"The busy man is back."

Kitsune Saiguu picked up the pipe beside him, took an elegant puff, and held it in his hand.

Jiang Xiaofeng didn't say anything, but with a wave of his hand, the three of them entered the King's Box.

The pink fox suddenly realized that Kitsune Saiguu was gone. Just as she was about to get up, she heard a voice. "I almost forgot about you."

Then, the pink fox was also transported into the King's Box.

Okay, let's make a long story short.

"What secrets are you hiding? If you don't tell me now, don't blame me for sending you back to the Ley Line."

Hanasato sighed.

"Let me speak."

"Mr. Jiang Xiaofeng, Kitsune Saiguu and I initially intended to follow you, while Mikoshi Chiyo hoped to give her some time to settle her only remaining descendants before she would swear allegiance."

"However, because of Yae Miko, Kitsune Saiguu may have to wait some time before he can follow you."

"After all... Yae Miko's current condition is not suitable for the position of Guuji."

Jiang Xiaofeng: "..."

So, it's my fault?

This won't do.

Jiang Xiaofeng raised his hand to pause time, picked up the pink-haired fox, and reversed time.

Soon, Yae Miko returned to the time before Jiang Xiaofeng "shot her in the head".

Then, Jiang Xiaofeng brought the Yae Miko back to the worship hall, pressed his hand on the Yae Miko who had returned to human form, and made time begin to flow.

"Uh, cough cough cough..."

Yae Miko was thrown to the ground by Jiang Xiaofeng and began to cough.

"What, Mr. Jiang Xiaofeng, are you planning to spare my life?"

Jiang Xiaofeng squinted and pulled the three of them out again.

The three people. "..."

Although Yae Miko's time had been reversed, her soul still subconsciously felt a trace of fear towards Jiang Xiaofeng.

However, this fear was quickly replaced by shock.

"Sister Kitsune Saiguu!"

Yae Miko transformed into a fox and pounced into Kitsune Saiguu's arms. "Waaaaah, Kitsune Saiguu- neechan, you're still alive..."

By the time Kitsune Saiguu had settled the Yae Miko, it was already very late at night.

"Um..."

"Now you have no reason not to follow me, right?"

"Why are you looking at me like that? Do you think the reason I was so ruthless towards Yae Miko was because I was worried that one day Yae Miko might encounter someone tough and still dare to deliberately provoke me?"

Kitsune Saiguu shook his head.

"No, your power... seems quite special?"

"That Sasayuri..."

Jiang Xiaofeng raised his hand directly. "Putting aside the fact that he's been dead for too long, I can't revive him right now."

Give me a reason or a bargaining chip to bring that man back to life, otherwise, there's no point in talking.

Kitsune Saiguu: "..."

Mikoshi Chiyo: "..."

Hanasato had already gone out to negotiate with the foxes, so she didn't hear clearly.

So, the key point is that you don't want to revive Sasayuri because he's a man?

Jiang Xiaofeng's low standards have once again shattered their expectations.

At that moment, Hanasato walked in.

" Kitsune Saiguu, you need to go and manage your children! They're too much trouble for me to handle!"

Upon hearing this, Kitsune Saiguu immediately went out.

Jiang Xiaofeng looked at Mikoshi Chiyo: "I can accept your reason."

"Anyway, I quite like that Itto, Ichito."

"But, Hanasato, do you really not want to stay here as a Guuji?"

Hanasato's expression was a little strange.

"Hmm... You can ask her when Kitsune Saiguu returns..."

Kitsune Saiguu easily quelled the agitation of the Sky Kitsune Earth Kitsune. After entering, she found Jiang Xiaofeng looking at her and saying, "You're going to stay at Grand Narukami Shrine?"

"Cough cough."

Kitsune Saiguu pulled Jiang Xiaofeng aside.

"Look, I've finally come back, and I want to spend more time with Yae Miko and the children outside. So I'd like to serve as acting chief Guuji at Grand Narukami Shrine for a while, and then let Miko take over once I'm done here."

Jiang Xiaofeng pressed down on Kitsune Saiguu's shoulder.

"This reason doesn't seem very convincing."

Kitsune Saiguu tiptoed, trying to get close to Jiang Xiaofeng's ear.

Jiang Xiaofeng bent down and put his ear close to Kitsune Saiguu's face.

What do you think of the atmosphere at Grand Narukami Shrine?

The warm breath from the Kitsune Saiguu brushed against Jiang Xiaofeng's face, making him feel ticklish.

Jiang Xiaofeng: "..."
