Chapter 99: The Witch Impersonating Minaduki
Thanks for the reward from "云歧青谷", "将邪" and "zjj199646"!
Night.
Everyone had fallen asleep, and it was still Yagumo Kuroba sitting alone by the riverbank.
There has always been something on his mind.
That was the uncomfortable feeling brought by Rinne in the Four Gods to him.
During the daytime battle, he didn't notice it, but now that he thinks back on it, Yakumo Mukuro's doubts are growing bigger.
That Rinne's spirit is Suzaku.
However, from that spirit's body, Yagumo Taro could feel not only the power of flames but also a very eerie aura.
Ethereal and elusive, constantly changing, yet simultaneously nauseating.
Having been a yokai for almost ten years, Yakumo Mukuro also understood some things.
The intuition of monsters is often more reliable than so-called reason.
BOOM!!!!!!!
The distant sky suddenly appeared a soaring pillar of fire.
"That's...!"
Even from a great distance, that flash of flame had dyed Baiyun Mo's peerlessly beautiful face red.
The barrier has been specially reinforced, and even if it receives an attack from a powerful spirit like Reolara, it can hold for one and a half minutes, enough time for Akane and the others to react.
After some deliberation, Hachiguma Tsumuji decided to go and take a look.
Opening the gap, Bayun Mo disappeared on the spot.
Because he didn't know what had happened, Yakumo Sumi reappeared in the forest a distance away from the pillar of fire that pierced the sky.
After landing, looking around, Ba Yun Mo's eyes narrowed slightly.
"I... hate this place..."
"Really?"
Next to him stood a girl wearing a crimson mask on her head.
Libya.
"Are you in trouble?"
With hands clasped across his chest, Ba Yun Mo gazed out at the distant battle.
The four gods' Rin Fu and Xiao Fu, as well as... Akane Minaduki?
"Well, it's a bit of trouble."
Ruby nodded her head.
"That Sarah, sneaked away."
"Sneak away?"
"Using his own abilities, he took away the second princess who possessed the qualities of a Dark Elf Princess."
"Fiona? Isn't this just fine?"
"Rubia shook her head, 'Without my orders, this was her own doing, seemingly under the instruction of the 'snake' from the teaching country.'"
"In any case, this is unfavorable for my plan, so I'll have to ask you to take action. After all, she and I are temporary allies for now; if it were you, that would be a different matter."
Baiyun Mo curled up the corner of his mouth.
"Well, it's also true that not many people know you and I are allies."
It feels like I've become the main antagonist somehow.
"Just now you said, what ability did Sara use? What is her ability?"
Revia's figure disappeared, leaving behind only her voice.
"Using her own spirit, she obtains others' shadows, allowing her to impersonate them and even mimic their abilities. The Rinne you met today is one of the Four Gods, and that was her disguise."
In the air, it seems that the faint scent of Rubia's body can still be smelled.
Raising her eyes, she saw two groups of people and horses facing off in front of her.
One side was Lin Fu and Xiao Fu, who had fought with each other during the day, while the other side was surprisingly Akane!
So that means Asuka was also impersonated by Sara.
A faint sense of discontent arose in Bailing's heart.
Dare to impersonate his wife.
"Hmm...hmm..."
Xiao Fu gasped for breath as she looked at "Akiraka" in front of her, or rather, Sara.
By now, she also knew that this "Akane" was a fake.
Because their troops were attacked by this man on their way back to their camp after fighting with Aua's team today.
Originally, when Zhu Que's Rinne was sent to investigate the Cult of the Sanctuary's camp, the real Rinne had already been defeated. This Sara has been impersonating Rinne since then and appeared among them.
However, at a time when everyone was weak from the daytime battle with Aua's troops, Sara led them unknowingly into a trap that had been laid in advance.
If it weren't for Bai Ya and Lauren's desperate resistance at the cost of losing the magic stone, she and Princess Huang might not have been able to escape.
In any case, they had to settle accounts with Sarah.
This is the Kuina Empire, it's a matter of honor for the Four Gods.
"You seem to be done for!"
Sara waved the fake Exorcist Holy Sword in her hand and ridiculed Xiao Fu and Lin Fu without hesitation.
"Hiss——"
Xiao Fu let out a soft cry and swung her fist again.
"Don't get too cocky there!"
Sarah easily parried Xiaofu's attack with a swing of her sword and immediately kicked Xiaofu flying with a whip-like leg.
During the day, she fell into a trap and was seriously injured, which limited her strength.
Sarah was just about to strike again when she suddenly felt a strong sense of foreboding and hastily retreated.
"Rumble, rumble, rumble, rumble, rumble!!"
The next moment, a colorful barrage of bullets rained down from the sky.
"This kind of attack - is it possible!?"
Whether it was Sara or Xiao Fu and Lin Fu, they all turned their heads to look in the direction of the barrage.
There, Bayun Mo's body was suspended in mid-air.
Behind him was a huge blue magic array.
"You've got quite some guts."
Looking at Sarah's unattractive face, Yakumo Mokuro hummed a sound.
"The witch who teaches the country, unexpectedly dares to impersonate Akane."
Why? Why did this strange spirit appear here?
Sarah looked at Yayoi Sumi and quickly thought of a solution in her mind.
"How did he know I was impersonating that little girl?"
"Isn't this the spirit husband of that little girl?"
Although she was on her guard in her heart, Sara still maintained a charming expression on her face.
"What's wrong, seeing this face you're so ruthless?"
In an instant, Bayun Mo felt a surge of uncontrollable anger in his heart.
"Hey! Aua's spirit!"
On the other hand, Lin Fu saw Bayun Mo and her eyes lit up. She immediately shouted: "How about we form a temporary alliance?"
Alliance?
Baiyun Mo turned his head and looked at Lin Fu and Xiao Fu.
"Form an alliance with us, help us defeat this guy and restore the dignity of the Four Gods. As a reward, we will offer you the Magic Stone after it's all over!"
Xiao Fu was unwilling to form an alliance with Bayun Mo, but her own princess had already made up her mind, and she could only agree.
Moreover, because they were ambushed by Sara without being vigilant, their combat power has been greatly reduced. If they don't find someone to form an alliance with, it will be really difficult for them to counterattack against Sara.
"Huh? If we're forming an alliance... where are we going?"
Yatsumaki suddenly discovered Sara's attempt to escape and fired a large, dazzling barrage of bullets without hesitation, instantly covering Sara's surroundings and a large area around her.
"Rumble, rumble, rumble——!!!"
Constantly dodging and weaving her body to avoid the hail of bullets, Sarah's heart sank further.
"Soul is faint, why hasn't that Lulia guy come yet? Could it be that she has already sensed something?"
"The alliance is formed."
Facing Lin Fu, Baiyun Mo said a sentence, then raised his hands high, and his eyes were filled with purple energy.
"Witch! Your behavior——"
"Absolutely unforgivable!!"
Dazzling danmaku, appears once again.
