Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Hyuga Kyou quietly wiped the Kusanagi pill in her hand.
Although his heart was full of anger and guilt, he was not swayed by this negative emotion, but tried his best to restrain the spreading killing intent in his heart.
The gentle wind blowing his body made his mind more calm.
In the ninja world, blindness and underestimation are the greatest enemies of ninjas.
No matter what you do, you must have a clear goal, and the goal of Hinata mirror coming to the kingdom of ghosts this time is not to kill indiscriminately, but to find the whereabouts of the witch.
Looking in the direction of the witch's palace, Hyuga Kyou's expression gradually became serious.
As night fell, rows of lights were lit in the palace in the distance. Although the disciples of the Yellow Spring Sect were still patrolling non-stop, the gaps between the queues were undoubtedly much larger than during the day, which made it easier for Hyuga Kyou to sneak in.
But Hyuga mirror still did not act, still waiting patiently.
As the night deepened, the formation of the patrol team in the palace began to become a little disorganized, and the guards in each post also yawned one after another. The silence around them seemed to make all the guards in the palace relax their vigilance.
"it's time!"
Hyuga Kyou stood up slowly, and immediately disappeared in place.
Like a black shadow, he sneaked in the shadow of the wall, crossed one sentry post after another, dodged one pair after another of guards, and sneaked into the palace in just a moment.
Hyuga Kyou once lived in the Miko's palace for a while, and although he is not very familiar with the layout of the palace, it is not blind.
After sneaking into the palace, he leaned against a dark corner and thought to himself: "The witch's residence is the core area of the entire palace, let's go there first and have a look!"
After passing through several corridors, Hyuga Kyou found a group of followers of Huangquan Cult standing in front of the passage leading to the witch's residence.
Hyuga Kyou's eyes froze, and he slowly pulled out the Kusanagi Maru from his waist.
Sa...
In a gust of wind, Hyuga Kyou turned into a black shadow and rushed forward.
swish swish swish...
Following a few cold flashes of sword light, each and every one of the Huangquan cultists fell to the ground in a state of bewilderment.
"Enemy..."
The little leader of the Huangquan Sect who was in the center of the line opened his mouth to warn loudly, but the Kusanagi Maru that came out from Hyuga Kyou's hand shot at him as quickly as Kunai, and pierced into his mouth impartially, stopping his exclamation abruptly!
After pulling the Kusanagi pill from the mouth of the little leader of the Underworld Sect, Hyuga Kyou flicked it away, shaking off the steaming blood on the blade, and walked towards the shrine maiden's residence indifferently.
Arriving in front of the shrine maiden's residence, Hyuga Kyou slowly pushed open the door full of sealing spells.
After pushing the door open, he didn't enter in a hurry, but stood outside the door and carefully observed the scene inside the house with Tenseiyan.
In Tenseiyan's field of vision, there is no one in the house, and there is no trace of Chakra. The bed, furnishings, etc. in the house seem to be as usual.
"no one... ?"
Hyuga Kyou frowned, slightly surprised.
He originally thought that even if he couldn't see the witch herself here, he should be able to see Huang Quan, the leader of the Huangquan Sect who occupies the palace, but he never thought about it, and he missed it.
Holding Kusanagi Maru, Hyuga Kyou slowly walked into the house, but as soon as he entered the house, he felt something was wrong, and immediately looked up at the roof.
The roof of the witch's residence was very high. According to Hyuga Kyou's visual inspection, its height was at least twelve meters, as high as three or four floors. There was a crystal chandelier hanging in the center of the dome, and a magnificent brilliance shone from the chandelier.
If it was someone else, maybe they wouldn't notice anything different, but Hyuga Kagami who has Tenseiyan is different.
In Hyuga Kage Tensei's vision, the crystal chandelier hanging in the center of the dome clearly contained a soft energy, which seemed to be a mixture of Chakra and natural energy, very similar to the Dragon Vein Chakra in the gourd magic weapon on Hyuga Kage's waist.
Wow...
Just as Hyuga Kyou was about to jump onto the dome and looked carefully at the crystal chandelier, a golden light suddenly shot out from the crystal chandelier. At the same time, a familiar figure Hyuga Kyou walked out of the golden light.
This figure is none other than the Miko of the Ghost Country!
Staring at the vivid phantom of the priestess of the ghost country in front of him, Hyuga Kyou asked with some guard: "Your Highness, are you..."
The witch explained: "This is my spirit body."
"Spiritual body!?" Hyuga Kyou's face darkened immediately after being slightly stunned: "I'm sorry, I failed to fulfill the agreement."
The so-called "spiritual body" is actually another name for the soul. Excluding special circumstances, the witch appears in the state of a soul at this time, which means that she is probably dead.
And this undoubtedly made Hinata mirror very guilty. If he had completely killed Huang Quan as promised, maybe the witch would have escaped.
Seeing this, the witch smiled slightly and said, "You don't have to worry too much, it's all preordained!"
Hyuga Kyou asked, "Could it be that you predicted something?"
"Well, I predicted my own death more than a month ago." After a pause, the witch smiled again: "Actually, as early as a few years ago, that is, the time in the kingdom of demons and ghosts, I predicted my own death once, but because of your appearance, my prediction became invalid."
"What, that time you also predicted your own death?"
At this time, Hyuga mirror realized later, and understood why the miko always mentioned that she would die with the sprites.
The witch nodded and said: "Well, the prophecy failed because of your appearance that time, but this time, it came true. So you don't have to blame yourself too much. Because of you, I have spent a few more years with Ziyuan, and I am already very satisfied!"
The Miko knows very well that Hyuga Kage has no obligation to stay in the Oni Land to protect her, so she doesn't resent Hyuga Kage, and even thanks Hyuga Kage for letting her avoid the first death prophecy and get along with her daughter Shion for a few more years.
Hyuga Kyou sighed: "Your soul resides here, are you waiting for me?"
The witch smiled: "Yes, I know you will definitely come."
Hyuga mirror asked curiously: "You predicted that I would come?"
The witch shook her head, pointed to the magic gourd on Hyuga Kyo's waist, and said, "With it by your side, I can't predict anything related to you!"
Hyuga Kyou glanced at the magic gourd on his waist unexpectedly, and said, "Is it because of the dragon's veins?"
The witch replied: "Well, your dragon veins contain a lot of natural energy, which can almost be regarded as a part of nature, and prophecy can only be aimed at individuals, but cannot peek into nature, so as long as it is by your side, no prophecy can peek into your fate!"
Patting the gourd magic weapon, Hyuga mirror asked: "So, it can block all prophecies for me?"
