Curse: Red Blood Son

The wind of Hokkaido, with its biting cold, howled around the empty temple, as if even time was frozen.

Huiyuan Xiong and Nanami Kento stood side by side at the entrance of the temple, their breath turned into white mist in the cold wind, blurring their vision, but clarifying their determination.

"This is the temple where the cursed spirit was found."

Huiyuan Xiong's voice trembled slightly in the cold wind, but his eyes were extremely firm.

He was wearing a heavy black coat, with his hat pulled down to cover his forehead, revealing only his resolute eyes and tightly pursed lips.

Nanami Kento was wearing a simple dark windbreaker, his eyes were calm and sharp, as if he could see through everything.

"The mission said it was a second-level cursed spirit, solve it cleanly and neatly, and then go to help Kamo senior bring specialties."

His voice was calm and powerful, as if everything was under control.

Huiyuan Xiong smiled and nodded.

"Let's talk about specialties first. We need to set up tents first to prevent panic among ordinary people."

His words revealed his emphasis on the mission and his concern for ordinary people.

With Huiyuan Xiong's low voice:

"Born from darkness, from darkness to darkness; all filth and filth, all must be exorcised."

An invisible barrier instantly enveloped the entire temple, isolating the noise and fear from the outside world.

The two began the exorcism mission.

They shuttled through the corridors of the temple, casually dealing with the low-level cursed spirits that occasionally appeared around them.

Those cursed spirits were like ghosts in the dark, but they had no power to fight back in front of them.

Soon, they came to the main hall of the temple, where a statue was enshrined.

The statue wore a black hat, a hunting robe, a fishing rod in the right hand, and a sea bream in the left hand. It was the appearance of the land god known to everyone in Japan.

However, under this sacred appearance, there are unknown secrets hidden.

"Is this the God of Land?" There was a hint of uncertainty in Huiyuan Xiong's voice.

"If I'm not mistaken, it is indeed the God of Land."

Nanami Kento's face was solemn, and his eyes stayed on the statue for a moment, as if looking for some clues.

"But the God of Land should not be only level two."

Huiyuan Xiong's doubts echoed in the air.

He knew the status of the God of Land in Japanese beliefs, and he also knew that once the belief deteriorated, it was possible to produce cursed spirits.

The God of Land, as the guardian of the place, was believed by countless people.

They believed that the God of Land could bring good harvest and prosperity, so people would come to worship every year during the harvest season.

However, when encountering a disaster year, such as floods or droughts, people's beliefs would deteriorate.

They would think that it was the God of Land who was angry, which led to the occurrence of various disasters.

This deterioration of belief could produce cursed spirits similar to the God of Land.

"Indeed, there are many people who believe in the God of Land, so once a cursed spirit is produced, it is basically around level one."

Nanaha Kento spoke slowly, with a hint of contemplation in his voice.

"I'm afraid something went wrong. Anyway, the situation is not good."

The two looked at each other, and both saw some tension in each other's eyes.

The wind in Hokkaido, at this moment, was whistling around the empty temple with a biting chill and a sense of uneasiness.

Nanami Kento's voice seemed particularly calm in the cold wind:

"If it is really the God of Land, it is definitely not something we two can handle. We need to retreat immediately."

His eyes revealed an unquestionable determination.

Upon hearing this, Huiyuan Xiong's heart tightened. He looked up suddenly and saw that the eyes of the statue of the God of Land, which had been closed, suddenly opened, and the scarlet light was like the fire of hell, burning in the darkness.

The corner of the land god's mouth raised a wicked smile, which was full of teasing and disdain, as if he was watching the struggle of two ants.

"It's probably too late to retreat now."

There was a hint of despair in Huiyuan Xiong's voice. He knew that he and Nanami Kento were no match for the land god curse spirit.

Nanami Kento didn't say much. He turned around quickly and pulled Huiyuan Xiong towards the gate of the temple.

However, how could the land god curse spirit let them go easily?

It waved the fishing rod in its hand, and two strange fish curse spirits with sawtooth mouths rushed out of the pool next to the corridor in an instant.

They were like messengers from hell, with endless killing and terror, and rushed straight to the two of them.

The bodies of the two strange fish curse spirits were huge, and the heads alone were enough to swallow an adult in one bite.

Huiyuan Xiong and Nanami Kento were shocked. They didn't have time to think about it, and rolled forward to avoid the attack of the strange fish curse spirit.

However, they didn't even bother to fight back, they just got up and continued to run away, with only one thought in their mind: to survive!

The two rushed out of the temple gate and retreated along the corridor they came from.

When they came, they were still in the corridor.The two of them resolutely chose to stay on the top of the corridor with a wide view when they were escaping, trying to use the height advantage to avoid the pursuit of the strange fish curse spirit.

Their choice was wise. The strange fish curse spirit was very fast in the water, but it slowed down a lot when it reached the top of the corridor.

It started to rain in the sky at some point. This rain was different from the usual gentle and delicate rain, but it was heavy, as if it was going to crush people.

The raindrops fell on the two of them, making them feel like they were stuck in a quagmire and couldn't move.

On the other hand, the strange fish curse spirit was like a fish in water, its speed soared, and soon closed the distance between them.

The heartbeats of Huiyuan Xiong and Nanami Kento were as violent as drums. They knew that they had reached the critical moment of life and death.

However, they did not give up hope. They supported each other and continued to run forward, trying to find a ray of light in this endless darkness.

At this moment, they were no longer just sorcerers, but two warriors struggling in despair and looking for light in the darkness.

Their figures were looming in the rain, but their firm belief was burning like a flame, never extinguished.

The rain was getting heavier, and the bean-sized raindrops were like sharp blades, cutting the air and the nerves of Huiyuan Xiong and Nanami Kento.

Finally, they fled to the square in front of the temple, but at the same time they were caught up by the strange fish curse spirits and blocked their way.

The two of them stood back to back and were cautious, facing the two vicious strange fish curse spirits, but there was no fear in their eyes.

"This won't work. We have to get rid of these two curse spirits first."

Huiyuan Xiong took a deep breath, and the rain slid down his cheeks, intertwined with sweat, making him look more determined.

He turned his head to look at Nanami Kento, with sparks of decisive battle flashing in his eyes.

Nanami Kento nodded, his eyes were calm and deep, as if he could see through everything.

"This rain is also strange. It is probably the effect of the land god's spell. In any case, killing these two second-level cursed spirits is not a loss."

There is an unquestionable firmness in his words.

The strange fish cursed spirits approached again, and they opened their big mouths full of saw teeth, as if they wanted to swallow the two of them in one gulp.

Huiyuan Yu and Nanami Kento went up without hesitation, each dealing with one.
