The sudden ghostly aura and thick voice did not surprise Ryo Saotome.
"come yet?"
Ryo Saotome turned her head and looked at the other side of the river bank as if she already knew who the visitor was, and even knew that the other party would come here.
There, a man was walking slowly.
The man is huge, with a strong physique that bulges with muscles. He is wearing a suit. His short blond hair is reminiscent of a crown on his head. His facial features are as deep as sculptures. He looks like the leader of the underworld. There was an indescribable pressure.
On the left side of such a man's suit, the sleeves of his suit were actually empty. The sleeves swayed in the wind, and you could tell at a glance that an arm was missing.
However, the missing arm does not make the man look very pushy.
Because, from the man's body, a miasma that has been solidified to the extreme is slowly exuding.
That's ghost energy.
After years of accumulation, the ghost-shaped moving spiritual disaster that transformed into phase 3 has stabilized the existence and the miasma in the body, so that it will no longer cause the distortion of the spiritual energy at will, and the real ghosts who can move freely will emit Out of anger.
The man is exactly such a ghost.
It has already developed intelligence, and its appearance is no different from that of humans. It has been living in the world since ancient times, wandering around, and is the famous one-armed ghost.
"too late."
Ryo Saotome used an emotionless tone to teach the Ghost King in front of her unceremoniously.
Even though the other party was powerful, had contact with the nominal master Ashiya Michitoshi, and even became acquaintances of equals, Ryo Saotome didn't mean to be polite at all.
This is not only because this is the character of Ryo Saotome, but also because Ryo Saotome is no longer unfamiliar with the ghost in front of her.
As for the reason...
"It's still the same as before. Even if you are procrastinating on what you are told to do, is this worthy of being called the famous Ghost King?"
Ryo Saotome revealed the identity of the other party with an expressionless face.
"Hakakuki."
Yes.
The Oni King in front of him is none other than Kaku Gyouki, one of the two guardians of Yakou along with Ryo Saotome.
or...
"It would be better if I call you Ibaraki-douji?"
Ryo Saotome said this.
Ibaraki Doji.
If someone familiar with Japanese mythology were here, they would definitely react to this name, right
Because this is the legendary ghost known as the Rashomon ghost. It is a subordinate of the famous Japanese monster Shuten Doji. It was a famous existence during the Heian period. It lives in the Oeyama area and serves as the leader of Oeyama. Shuten Doji is the most powerful general among all demons and is feared by the world.
He and Ashiya Michitoshi came from the same era, and they also lived for thousands of years.
He had a life-and-death battle with Tsuna Watanabe, the former No. 1 among the Four Heavenly Kings of Yorimitsu, and one of his arms was cut off by his famous sword "Hashigiri", thus becoming the famous one-armed ghost.
In today's era, this one-armed ghost who has lived for thousands of years is the real ghost king. In terms of seniority and power of ghosts, no one can surpass him. Even Ashiya Michimatsu can only regard him as a ghost. Friends, I have met him on an equal footing, and the relationship between the two parties has lasted for thousands of years.
Such a ghost king was surrendered by the former Ye Guang, so he changed his name to Jiao Xinggui and became one of the two guardians of Ye Guang.
However, to say that he was surrendered, it is more correct to say that he was subdued.
After all, in terms of strength alone, Kakugyouki is undoubtedly much higher than Ryo Saotome as Hikarumaru. Even Yakou doesn't dare to claim that he can definitely defeat him. The reason why Kakugyouki chooses to become Yakou's shikigami is, To a large extent, it was because of the congeniality between Ye Guang and Jiao Xinggui that it ended up like this.
If Hikaishimaru, who has fully studied various spells and knows how to exploit the weaknesses and disadvantages of various spells to achieve his own goals, is the ultimate in skills, then Kakugyouki can use accumulated skills to achieve his goals. With a huge power that has lasted for thousands of years, brute force alone can crush everything to the extreme.
These are the guardians of Ye Guang, two shikigami who represent the ultimate in strength and skill.
Now, these two shikigami who have left their names in history are meeting on the bank of a river that no one cares about. One is expressionless, and the other is laughing.
"It's up to you. Anyway, you've always had your own way since the beginning. Even if I object, you won't change what you want to do, right?"
Kakuguki just spoke to his former colleague.
But that’s the truth, right
"You dare to ask me to help you so naturally. Even Daoman, who is the nominal master, dares to do whatever you want. You are the only one in the world."
Speaking of this, Jiao Xinggui was also a little helpless.
It can be seen from this that Ryo Saotome has been like to manipulate people like this since a long time ago, so that even the famous Oni King has become accustomed to it.
"Is this because Ye Guang dotes on you too much?"
Jiao Xinggui shrugged.
But Ryo Saotome obviously didn't listen.
"Anyway, you are just an idler now. You have been wandering outside for decades. Now I ask you to do some small things just to help you exercise."
Saotome Ryo said this calmly.
"Yes Yes Yes."
Jiao Xinggui could only bear it helplessly.
This attitude only appears when facing Ryo Saotome.
Obviously, it's not just Yakou who dotes on Saotome, the same goes for Kakugyou.
so...
"As you said, I brought it here."
Jiao Xinggui said so.
The next second, a black shadow descended from the sky, flapped its wings, and stayed on the shoulder of Jiao Xinggui.
Jet black feathers.
Three legs.
Fire powder was sprinkled all over his body.
In the golden eyes, three magatama were spinning freely.
It was Crowfeather.
Looking at the Yata crow resting leisurely on Kakugyouki's shoulder, Ryo Saotome narrowed her eyes.
"It's really useless. You can't even possess a kid. It's been sealed for too long, so it's malfunctioning?"
Ryo Saotome couldn't help but comment on Crow Feather.
Crow Feather immediately turned his head and looked at Ryo Saotome, as if he didn't have the same experience as her. He straightened his feathers and looked so leisurely and at ease.
In this situation, it was Jiao Xinggui who spoke for Crow Feather.
"Don't blame it. The main reason is that the kid is too unexpected. He has such a level of magic skills at a young age. Even Beidou is willing to be manipulated by him. If he is not the reincarnation of Ye Guang, then Tu Yu The Men family is really blessed that there is a second guy who can rival Seimei Abe."
Jiao Xinggui said this with a sigh.
In response, Ryo Saotome did not refute.
"He is indeed very powerful, and his talent can rival that of Ye Guang. If it is really the reincarnation of Ye Guang, then forget it. If not, it would be unreasonable." Ryo Saotome sighed: "The problem is how to make Crow Feather possess him now. , to confirm his identity.”
After all, no matter what, Ryo Saotome had to find the reincarnation of Ye Guang and make him awaken.
To this end, Saotome Ryo will not hesitate to use any means.
"You are so loyal."
Looking at Ryo Saotome like this, Kakugyuki once again gave this evaluation.
Then...
"Actually, it doesn't have to be that troublesome. If you want Tsuchimikado Qiugan to use Crow Feather, there is an easier way."
Kakuguki suddenly said this.
"What?"
Ryo Saotome was slightly startled.
Perhaps because he thought it was strange for Ryo Saotome to show such an expression, Kakugyuki laughed.
"Okay, I'll help you one more time."
The horned ghost said so.
"Leave this matter to me."
Jiao Xinggui raised a hand, clenched his fist slightly, and smiled suddenly.
"Let me go and meet him in person."
