"Quick, quick... Hoo, hoo, hoo, I must announce everything happening here and Abe no Seimei's conspiracy to the public!!!"
"Only this way can everyone be saved!!!"
Kagura gasping for breath, ran through the empty streets. Buildings on both sides passed quickly. She had already suffered considerable injuries on her body. Her right arm was even bleeding profusely. However, she couldn't care about that now. She gripped tightly the Maikirimaru No. 12 in her hand. After the Tsuchimiya family's strongest beast spirit, Byakuei, was killed, this was the only last shield that could protect her.
Running at full speed with all her might, extreme running without the slightest slack.
Although she was truly exhausted at this moment, the helplessness and fatigue coming from her body almost submerged her, she still couldn't stop.
Stopping meant death.
The sacrifice of the Onmyōji who helped her escape from difficulties before would be in vain. Now she carried the hope of saving her father, Yomi... and Onmyōdō's only hope.
If she fell at this moment, everything would become meaningless.
Suddenly, Kagura's face changed, sensing deadly threat coming. She had no time to think, and instinctively rolled to the right side.
*BANG!*
A slash that shattered the ground split the street directly from the center point. If Kagura hadn't dodged earlier, she would definitely have been killed by this attack.
From the rising dust, a low and crazed voice came.
What was visible was a young man, holding a katana, with half his face covered by a dark brown coffin-colored mask. His entire body emitted terrifying cold aura. Following right behind him was a neatly dressed white-haired middle-aged man.
These two people were Ibaraki Dōji, ranked forty-ninth on the Transcendent List, and Kidōmaru, ranked forty-sixth.
Kagura stood up from the ground trembling. Her ankle was already sprained. Now even standing was very difficult, let alone continuing to flee. In such a state, slight despair appeared on her small face.
"Sorry, Yomi-senpai, Father..."
Before, with Byakuei, she could still resist a little before these two Great Yōkai famous in Japanese legends.
Now, besides despair, there was only guilt, guilt for disappointing everyone.
"Perfect. Today I haven't enjoyed Onmyōji blood well. Let's start with this little girl."
Ibaraki licked the blade in his hand, step by step approaching Kagura. In his eyes, the other party had already become a lamb ready for slaughter.
"There's only one regret, that I didn't gather courage to confess my love to Hikaru Nii-san before death."
"If there's a chance..."
Kagura's thoughts raced before death. Seeing Ibaraki approaching her, slightly cold light flashed in her eyes. All spiritual power throughout her body gathered. Even if she died, she had to deliver a strong blow to the other party.
She must not bring shame to the Tsuchimiya family.
"An ant's struggle!"
Kagura's small movement was truly clearly visible before the two Great Yōkai, Ibaraki and Kidōmaru. A disgusted smile appeared at the corner of Ibaraki's lips. At the same time, the katana in his hand was raised high above his head, preparing to kill her completely.
*SWOOSH!*
A straight blue sword light, bringing power sufficient to destroy everything before eyes, attacked Ibaraki.
"Not good, Ibaraki Dōji, quickly dodge!"
Kidōmaru was shocked.
In this attack, he clearly felt the death aura he hadn't felt in thousands of years. He couldn't withstand it, completely couldn't withstand it. Even if he used all his power to forcibly withstand this attack, there was only one path: destruction.
"Damn!!!"
Ibaraki also wanted to dodge. However, the terrifying pressure, like a giant hand supporting the sky, firmly imprisoned him and pressed him in place. He couldn't even move a finger slightly, let alone try to dodge.
From fear to despair with a face pale as death.
"Agh!!!"
In the scream, Ibaraki Dōji, this Great Yōkai famous in Japan, was truly swallowed by this sudden terrifying sword light. He was completely eroded in this world without leaving even the slightest remains.
"Who?!"
Kidōmaru now was truly like a startled bird, drawing his long sword, guarding the surroundings fearfully.
To be able to kill Ibaraki whose strength was equivalent to his, with one attack, the other party must definitely be a Devil King-level strong individual, the same as his master, Abe no Seimei. Perhaps the other party wasn't an ordinary Devil King. It should be known that the ranking rewards he and Ibaraki received on the Transcendent List had already placed both of them at the peak of High-Class Devil strength. It was impossible for an ordinary Devil King to kill them in one move like this.
"If she's an ant, you are trash even lower than ants. How dare you!"
The familiar voice sounded in her ears, making Kagura lift her small head with great shock, looking at the source of the voice. She already knew who moved at this critical moment.
"Hikaru Nii-san!!!"
Correct.
This familiar voice, she would never mishear. It was Big Brother Hikaru, Kanzaki Hikaru.
Compared to Kagura's joy, Kidōmaru broke out in cold sweat, panicking to the extreme in his heart. He saw two people emerging from the shattered space before him, swallowed saliva fearfully, and said.
"White Dragon Emperor Vali Lucifer, and Kanzaki Hikaru..."
Thanks to the Dimensional List, as long as they were characters appearing on the list, now they were completely like public figures. Not only did their appearance and detailed information appear before various supernatural forces, but also before ordinary people.
Figures like Vali, who rarely appeared in the Three Realms, now their images were also spread throughout the Three Realms.
How could Kidōmaru not know?
At this moment, his heart had already fallen into a deep abyss. Vali alone was already not his match. The Strongest White Dragon Emperor in History, that was a figure who could rival the Main Gods and God Kings of various Pantheons. Moreover, the person beside him.
According to that person's words, the other party was most likely the only Transcendent among humans, Emperor Shin!
