Ichito Arataki ran wildly along the path. He had a hunch that there would be clues about his mission at the end of the road.

The path was winding, but fortunately it was not very long. In addition, Huang Long Yidou was very fast, so he saw the end after walking only about 70% of the way.

At this time, Aratake Ichito slowed down and walked forward slowly.

At the end of the path is an open space. The white light blooming from several stone pillars dispels the white fog here. Next to it stands a thunderbird statue that is more than half a person's height.

There were a few souls in the open space, and they seemed to be talking to each other. There were even vague and intermittent sounds that reached the ears of Arata Ichito who had not yet approached.

"Well...we can still...go back..."

"Why... so... obviously... a sacrifice..."

"No! ... No! Just tell me earlier..."

"Wuwuwu... go... go home..."

"Noisy!"

Hearing these noises, Arawaki Ichito rapped his head in pain. Even Achou at his feet was shaking his head and making irritable noises.

They continued to move forward, and as they took further steps, the scene before them became clearer and clearer.

Arata Ichito discovered that there were not only those souls here, but also two figures in the center of the front.

They are not ghosts. They look like flesh and blood, their clothes are brightly colored, and their voices when talking are like those of living people, not ethereal.

"Sister, can we still be saved?"

The boy's clear voice carried a hint of confusion and depression, and he lowered his head.

The woman called sister smiled and tapped the boy's head lightly with the pipe in her hand.

"Don't be so dejected. If you lose hope in your heart, even the Grand Master can't save you~"

Then the woman seemed to have noticed something, a dark light flashed across her beautiful eyes, and she said with a half-smile,

"Hmm? Are there guests coming?"

"Yes, the guests are coming."

Arata Ichito walked in unceremoniously with Achou in his arms.

Arata Ichito crossed his arms across his chest, and his cold gaze swept across the souls, finally stopping on the woman and the boy.

The boy looked to be about eleven or twelve years old. He was wearing a shirt with gray-blue and light-blue stripes, black shorts, and a bamboo hat. His eyes, under his purple hair, had the innocence and clarity that only belonged to a child.

The woman was wearing a red and white shrine maiden costume, with two snow-white fox ears standing tall on her head. On both sides of her short snow-white hair were decorations that were exactly the same as those of the Yae Goddess.

The only difference seems to be that the center gem is not bright purple but vermilion.

The golden glass-like eyes seemed to be exactly the same as the pupils of the Eightfold Son of God, yet seemed completely different. They had a kind of agility that ordinary people did not have, and also had something ambiguous.

The first moment they met, the names of both of them popped up in Arotaki Ichito's mind.

He whispered, "Kitsune-sai-miya? Right?"

Kitsunayomiya smiled and nodded, "Yes, you know me? The descendant of Chiyo."

Arata Ichito shook his head, "I don't know, I just heard your name a few times from a few people."

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Arawaki Ichito secretly thought that something was not good.

Hu Zhaigong narrowed his golden eyes slightly, and his gaze seemed to turn into a sharp sword, penetrating all illusions and looking straight into his heart.

The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and her red lips opened slightly, "No, you lied."

"Ah, it turns out that I hate dealing with you foxes. It's not fun at all."

Arata Ichito scratched his hair in annoyance and said with a frown, "First of all, what I said is completely true. There is not a single lie. I learned your name from the information leaked by two people."

"The first one is Gohyukura, the raccoon cat who played hide-and-seek with you. He said he missed you a lot... Well, that's not what he said, but that's what he meant."

"Hahaha, it's actually him. Even he can say such corny words. It seems that it has been a long time since I left Inazuma."

Hu Zhaigong covered her mouth and chuckled, her two bright eyes narrowed into slits of joy, so beautiful and elegant that anyone who came would have to admire her.

I do not know.

However, Arotaki Ichito had no intention of appreciating him at all. His eyes stared at the other person like dead fish, which created a huge contrast.

"Well, little guy, can you tell me a little bit about Gobazo? Is he...how is he now?"

"Fuck, why do you foxes always use this catchphrase? You always like to use your age advantage to tease people. Sooner or later, I will knock a big bump on your head!"

Arata Ichito gritted his teeth and glared at Kitsusai Palace, threatening him.

The other party smiled and said nothing.

Finally, Arata Ichito explained to the other party with a gloomy face, "Tsk, that guy was unlucky. About a few hundred years ago, because he couldn't see you, he made trouble everywhere and stole the talisman. As a result, he was sealed by a powerful Yin-Yang master and turned into a stone statue. He is still stuck there now."

Kitsaigong sighed, and the smile on his face turned a little lonely, "Alas, in the end, I was the one who cheated first."

Arata Ichito shrugged noncommittally, "Then there is the second person. You don't know her. Her name is Hanasari. She is a combination of resentment based on your memory. She is also the filth that the Shinzakura Purification is going to eliminate."

"She respects you very much, or rather, worships you. Her strong feelings towards you even caused her to feel a little inferior about her own existence. I also learned your name and achievements from her."

"By the way, it has been almost 500 years since your death."

Hu Zhaigong was startled, and his bright golden eyes also showed a bit of depression.

"Alas, time flies, things have changed, and people have changed. Although I was mentally prepared when I woke up again, I still felt inevitably disappointed and lost when I heard the news."

Arata Ichito ignored her and continued, "As for your appearance, to be honest, I have a power related to the soul, and your appearance is exactly what I learned from Miyu Chiyo."

"Have you seen Chiyo?"

The beautiful eyes of Kitsaigong slightly widened, and she was slightly stunned for a moment, then she returned to normal and nodded in understanding.

"Yes, since I can be resurrected, others can understand it too."

Arata Ichito thought to himself, "I haven't told you yet, I've also met Sasayuri."

On the surface, he waved his hand and ended the topic.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. I've answered all your questions. Now it's my turn to ask questions."

Hu Zhaigong nodded slightly, "It should be so. Little guy, you have answered some questions for me, so now it's my turn to answer your questions."

Arata Ichito didn't waste any time and went straight to the point. "Why are there so many souls here? And the fog that spread to the sea level, that's why I came to Tsuruga. Do you understand the reason?"

Kitsusai Palace did not answer immediately. Instead, he gave a bitter smile and slowly walked to Arata Ichito, bowed his head and saluted.

"Sir, I will tell you everything I know, but I also want to ask you one thing..."

She took a deep breath and said in a pleading tone, "Please...save them!"
