My messenger is a little fox

"By the way, in order for you to take over the Zhuzhao department, I have already paid you half of the reward!"

The old palace master seemed to have returned to the kind, peaceful and somewhat playful old man before. She pointed at Li Yu and said, "Well, I had already eliminated his evil thoughts before you came."

Looking at Asakura Nako's shocked expression, the old palace master smiled slightly and said: "Don't think this reward is cheap! I told you before that the fifth-level Zhuzhao Tianxia cultivation base, supplemented by the blessing of the half-moon robe and the wind crown, can get rid of Li Yu The demonic thoughts are lying to you, just to reassure you two. The fact is that only the king-level Zhuzhao Tianxia cultivation with the assistance of the three artifacts can help Li Yu get rid of the demonic thoughts."

After saying that, the old temple master smiled and handed Asakura Nako a pile of documents, but it could be seen from her slightly trembling hands that her mood was not as calm as she appeared, "Here, here are the documents and succession of the Dangping Temple. You only need to sign your name and report some of the palace master's documents to the shrine. There are also some family assets left by the Zhuzhao Department back in the day. I drew a map and the method of opening it is also in the file. I leave them all for you to use. "

Listening to the faint footsteps in the distance, the old palace master smiled even more kindly: "It's time to give you the other half of the reward. After I die, I will cut off my head and give it to the shrine, and I will say that you exposed it." My conspiracy has killed all relatives. Whether the palace and the court believe it or not, it will leave a glimmer of hope for the Zhuzhao system. At this time, you must not compete for the elder position. When you advance to the king level, the glory that belongs to the Zhuzhao system will be lost. Come back by yourself."

"Naiko, don't talk, don't cry, just listen to what I have to say first."

The old palace master stopped Asakura Nako's actions and laughed at himself: "Ha, after talking so much, I didn't mention the second reward. The second reward is my elixir, which is the advanced king level of our Candlelight Department. It is then condensed in the body. If you take it, it will greatly speed up your practice. You will be able to achieve the king level in a year and a half at most. So don’t fight for any false fame at this time. Just keep the foundation of the Zhuzhao system. When you reach the king level, it will be the Zhuzhao system or the Zhuzhao system."

"Actually, I also want to see your children in groups, but unfortunately I am not allowed to do so. I want to see the Zhuzhao Department go to glory under your leadership!"

Speaking of this, the old palace master's voice became lower and lower, and the look in his eyes gradually left, "I'm sorry, Nako! I have to leave such a heavy burden to you in the end..."

The old palace master committed suicide. From the beginning to the end, she never asked for a promise from Asakura Nako, because she believed that Asakura Nako would definitely do what she arranged.

Asakura Nako's tears burst out unsatisfactorily again. She wanted to cry, but suddenly she heard shouting in the yard.

"Master Inoue, we are here to collect some of your blood under the order of the Temple Elders. Please cooperate... I heard that you are tired from traveling, so we can wait outside." After that, there was no sound.

Asakura Nako gritted her teeth, swallowed the tears on her lips, and slowly scanned the room again. Finally her eyes fell on Li Yu's face and she said softly: "I'm sorry, Brother Li!"

Nako Asakura kissed Li Yu's lips gently and raised her head. The tenderness on her face gradually dissipated and was replaced by coldness.

……

On this day, Asakura Nako personally took the head of the old temple master to the shrine to plead guilty; on this day, the secret became known to the world, shocking the entire Fuso; on this day, the Zhuzhao Department was deprived of the qualification of the five elders of the temple; on this day, One day, Asakura Nako took office as the head of the Tohira Shrine...

In the next more than a month, Nako Asakura was almost busy without even touching the ground. She had to explain and guarantee to various superior departments externally, and appease the people of the temple internally. She had to argue back and forth and have endless quarrels.

Li Yu had been staying in the temple silently. In fact, he had been awake at the old temple master's place that day, but he was unable to move due to the methods used by the old temple master. It must be that the old temple master also wanted him to know the truth.

Externally, Li Yu could not help with Asakura Nako's problem, but internally, anyone who dared to cause trouble would be beaten to the ground. In the end, no one in the Dangping Temple dared to question Asakura Nako's qualifications to take over as the temple master.

It was nearly the middle of the twelfth lunar month when Asakura Nako straightened out the messy affairs. She had lost a lot of weight, but she looked more capable.

On this day, Li Yu found Asakura Nako to say goodbye. He had been coming to Dangping Temple for two years. He was about to leave the place where he had lived for two years and the familiar people. Ah Li felt depressed, and Tianshu also came out and hid for a while.

The two looked at each other silently for a long time, and finally Asakura Nako said: "Brother Li, let me dance for you!"

"Can you dance?" Li Yu forced himself to smile, "Haha, I've known you for two years but I've never seen you dance!"

"Wait a minute! I'll go get ready!" Asakura Nako said with a little red face.

"Yeah, go ahead! I'm not in a hurry!" Li Yu continued to laugh.

This is a long time to wait.

Li Yu estimated that it was close to an hour, but he was not impatient at all. He just looked at the books in the living room with interest and teased Ah Li from time to time, until there was a knock on the door.

Li Yu suddenly looked back and saw Nako Asakura standing pretty by the door in a bright red dress with bright makeup on her face. This was a dress she had never worn before, and makeup she had never done before, but it looked so natural and bright, as if it was tailor-made for her. Li Yu was a little crazy for a moment.

"Haha!" A clear and melodious laughter sounded, "Brother Li, you are so stupid!"

"It's you who are so beautiful!" Li Yu touched his head and giggled.

Nako Asakura laughed again, "Brother Li, it's snowing outside, shall I perform a sword dance for you in the snow?"

How could this be refused?

Tianshu had already ran out of the spirit space, and Ahri was waiting with his neck stretched out.

"Canglanglang!"

Asakura Nako pulled out the Blue Teeth Sword and started dancing in the heavy snow...

Snowflakes fall, people dance with swords, and the sky is filled with red clothes, just to appeal to you.

Thinking back to the meeting in the past, this life has been worthwhile and I have gained a happy life.

The blade of the sword is short, but the love is long. At this moment, you are free. The road to suing you is long.

The vast sea is full of obstacles, and the green mountains are heavy. If I just wait and see, I can only think about it in my heart.

Looking at the broken sword, the person's heart is broken. I miss you everywhere, but no one has been hurt before.

Remember the beauty of today, and look back a hundred years ago, leaving only a lifetime of regrets.

Tears are easy, but the world of mortals is difficult. This thought makes you sigh. It's hard to tell your Majesty.

It was snowing all over the sky and could not be seen. The north wind was blowing and I could not feel it. Only the center of the snow was hard.

——Sword dance in the snow

In the heavy snow, a person, a fox, and a spirit move forward silently, not because they have to leave in the snow to highlight the tragedy, but because they are afraid that their hard-earned intention to leave will disappear in thin air. Similarly, Asakura Nako didn't hold back, she just stood under the snow in front of the mountain gate, silently watching the figure disappear into the vast white.

Of course, there are also dissonant sounds in this sad picture.

"If there are flowers, you must break them off. Don't wait until there are no flowers to break off branches! Alas - why did I just follow this... ah -"

Tianshu's sigh was interrupted, and his little body flew away far away, but his curses came back, "Wow, ah, damn you, you hit me again! I'll fight you..."

The sound penetrated the wind and snow and went straight into Asakura Nako's ears.

Nako Asakura was startled at first, and then she burst out laughing, laughing so hard that she couldn't stand upright. She didn't care about her own image. Anyway, there was only snow and no one around.

But she smiled and shed tears again, and finally she yelled at Feng Xue: "Li Yu...please cherish this life..."
