The words had barely left his mouth.
Under the control of the hair, a short blade fiercely stabbed towards Yang Tao's heart.
"Naughty!"
Poof…
With one punch, Yura of the Reverse Hair's head was directly smashed by Yang Tao, and he casually threw the headless corpse to the ground.
This was merely Yura of the Reverse Hair's 'puppet'; as long as her main body still had demonic power, this 'puppet' could be repaired at any time.
However, repairs also took time.
A Firecracker Chili dropped from his hand; the Firecracker Chili, originally only palm-sized, grew with the wind and quickly became taller than a person.
Boom…
Surging flames erupted, engulfing Yura of the Reverse Hair's healing body and simultaneously burning off all the surrounding long hair.
Destroying the body and erasing all traces.
He quickly delivered a Rankyaku kick, striking Yura of the Reverse Hair's nest, and with a tearing sound, the nest woven from black long hair instantly split open.
Skulls poured out of the gap like a flowing stream; who knows what kind of hair transplant technique Yura of the Reverse Hair used, as the long hair on every skull was preserved.
"She really is a femme fatale…"
Each head here represented a human who had died at Yura of the Reverse Hair's hands, and a rough glance at the skulls pouring out of the gap revealed at least several hundred.
It was a mystery how Yura of the Reverse Hair managed to gather so many heads in this sparsely populated warring states period.
As he flew towards the nest, the short blade that had flown out earlier came flying towards him again.
Yang Tao did not dodge or evade, allowing the short blade to stab him; however, under the protection of the quantum shield, the short blade could not penetrate the defense. He reached out, grabbed the hilt, and put it directly into his backpack.
'Red Mist? I didn't expect just any demon to possess a named weapon…'
He quickly arrived in front of the nest, carefully watching the skulls continuously pouring out of the gap. The skulls and black long hair were like a waterfall. Just then, a red skull flowed out of the nest.
'Found it!'
This red skull was where Yura of the Reverse Hair hid her main body. He quickly flew over and grabbed the red skull, exerting a slight force.
The red skull instantly shattered, and an oddly colored wooden comb dropped out, with a few strands of hair still wrapped around its teeth.
A nauseating smell emanated from the comb; it was the smell of 'dead air' or human oil.
"No!"
Yura of the Reverse Hair's puppet had already recovered, looking at Yang Tao with a face full of terror, fearing that Yang Tao would destroy the comb.
Hearing Yura of the Reverse Hair's voice, Yang Tao looked at her. Now, Yura of the Reverse Hair no longer had the haughty demeanor she had when facing Inuyasha and Kagome.
Her beautiful face was filled with terror, making one's heart involuntarily rise with a desire to protect her.
"Beg me."
Yang Tao's voice was a bit low. In her panic, she didn't hear clearly and subconsciously asked, "What?"
"I said! Kneel down and beg me! As long as I'm satisfied, I'll give you a way out…"
Yura of the Reverse Hair did not hesitate at all, directly kneeling on the ground and saying in a humble manner, "My lord, as long as you spare me, I… I can follow you, and also… there's the Shikon Jewel."
With that, Yura of the Reverse Hair gently beckoned, and a small bottle containing the Shikon Jewel flew out from a pile of skulls.
"This… is for you, my lord."
The long hair wrapped around the glass bottle and brought it before Yang Tao.
A smile appeared on Yang Tao's face as he reached out and took the glass bottle containing the Shikon Jewel, holding it before his eyes: "A Shikon Jewel shard… very nice, and you are also very nice."
"But I'm not satisfied, so you might as well go on your way peacefully."
The fawning expression on Yura of the Reverse Hair's face froze, but Yang Tao gave her no chance to explain. With a gentle squeeze, the wooden comb, filled with demonic power, was instantly crushed into pieces.
And as for the puppet, Yura of the Reverse Hair's eyes widened sharply, then she transformed into a ball of demonic energy and vanished into the air. Not only her, but also the hair that almost occupied the entire valley disappeared, leaving behind only a ground full of bare skulls.
Yang Tao looked at the at least a thousand skulls and softly murmured, "Someone must have begged you like this here too, right?"
Since she took human lives, then she should repay it with a demon's life. Isn't that fair enough?
Holding the Shikon Jewel and the comb fragments, he flew back to the villa. Granny Kaede saw him and quickly asked, "Where is that demon?"
Normally, Granny Kaede would ask if Yang Tao was injured or something similar, but Yang Tao had just been holding the demon's hair like a villain, so she really couldn't bring herself to ask.
If Yang Tao hadn't returned so quickly, she would have suspected that Yang Tao had dragged the demon into the forest and done something astonishing.
Yang Tao threw the comb fragments onto a nearby table: "Dead. This was her main body."
Granny Kaede looked at the comb, which contained powerful demonic energy, and was speechless for a moment.
Then she saw Yang Tao take out a glass bottle containing a Shikon Jewel shard, open the cork, and pour out the Shikon Jewel shard inside.
"This… this is Kagome's Shikon Jewel shard…"
Yang Tao wiggled his index finger in front of Granny Kaede and said, "No, no, no, this is a trophy I snatched from the demon. It just looks very similar to Miss Kagome's Shikon Jewel shard."
Granny Kaede: "…"
The attributes of the two shards were exactly the same, only the smaller one had slightly less energy.
Yang Tao tied the Shikon Jewel shard to a string and went to the fountain pool nearby to wash his hands. Even though he wouldn't get anything dirty from touching a comb used to comb dead people's hair, he still felt it was better to wash them.
He went to the grill and picked up the roasted rabbit leg on it.
"Good thing I came back quickly, otherwise the rabbit leg would have been ruined…"
He flipped it over, scored it, and then brushed on the seasoning.
Then he leisurely sat on the office chair nearby, enjoying the beautiful afternoon.
"Granny Kaede, want to stay and eat something later?"
"No, now that the demon has been dealt with, I'll go back to the Villagers first. The Villagers were all controlled by this demon before, and I don't know what the situation is like now."
After Granny Kaede finished speaking, she walked out of the courtyard with her hands behind her back and headed towards the Villagers.
Her heart was also incredibly complex. Yang Tao had eliminated the demon and saved her and the Villagers, but the Shikon Jewel that her sister protected had fallen into his hands.
She sighed softly and walked into the forest.
Night fell.
Yang Tao, who was processing a wild boar demon, looked up outside the courtyard and saw Kagome and Inuyasha walking out of the forest together.
Kagome, in her red and white miko outfit, and Inuyasha, in his red Fire Rat Robe, stood together, looking quite like a perfect match.
"Sir Yang…"
Kagome had just greeted him when the childlike Inuyasha impatiently said, "Hey, human, hand over the Shikon Jewel shard…"
Upon hearing this, Yang Tao stuck the small knife he used specifically for skinning into a stone, a bright smile on his face.
He pulled an office chair nearby and sat on it, taking out the Yamato and placing it beside him, saying, "You want it? Come and get it yourself. You know the rules, Inuyasha."
