Chapter 302: White Dragon Falls
Two days passed quickly, and Yuzuru Nagayama was still in Kyoto. In addition to keeping an eye on the movements of Yuyuko and the others, he was also escorting the expansion of the two banshees, keeping an eye on the situation of Kitahara Haruna, and teasing the loli god at Kamo Shrine in his spare time.

But his stay was not in vain, as something unexpected happened soon.

At night, a group of Onmyoji flew to the sky above Mt. Kurama on giant bird-shaped shikigami. They were coming today to hunt down the demon girls Momiji and Kiyohime, and even notified the Kifune Shrine next door.

As the absolute overlord of Kyoto, Hanakaiin should have set out long ago, but he was delayed by some troublesome matters and the shrine he was guarding was breached.

One of the twelve guardian shrines in Tokyo, six of which are guarded by first- and second-rate forces, and the remaining six are guarded by Hanakaiin.

Last night, the Fujimori Shrine guarded by Hanakaiin was silently breached by monsters, and the head of the Hanakaiin Fukujuryu branch family who was responsible for guarding it was killed. The weakest of the six heads of the Hanakaiin branch families had a sixth-level strength, but they died silently.

The attack on the shrine not only broke the seal, but also rescued the monster that served as the sealing point. This monster was a top-level monster that had an extreme hatred for Hanakaiin.

The so-called twelve guardian shrines are shrines surrounding Kyoto. Each of them uses a top-level monster as a formation point. It is said that some guardian shrines even suppress big monsters.

In order to prevent the situation from getting out of control, all members of the Hanakaiin Institute went out and spent an entire night to find the escaped weak top-level monster.

The top-level monster was killed after several members of the tribe died, but the mastermind behind the attack on the shrine has still not been found, which is why the matter of Momiji and Kiyohime has been delayed until now.

Now that no suspicious persons were found after a thorough investigation, the target was set on the two Hongye girls who had been jumping around in the past few days.

There are a total of thirty-five people above the bird-level shikigami, and the old man leading the team is named Hanakaiin Hideaki, who is the head of the Hanakaiin family who has met Nagayama Yuzuru once before, and is at the peak of the seventh level.

Standing on the left and right were an old man and a middle-aged man respectively. They were also seventh-level elders of Huakaiyuan. Some came from branch families, and some from the main family.

One of them was named Hanakaiin Hidema, who was of the same generation as the clan leader, and the other was named Hanakaiin Ryusan, who was of the "Ryu" generation.

In addition, there are more than a dozen high-level beings behind the three of them, all of whom are elite members of Huakaiyuan. Among them, there are five geniuses who have broken through to the sixth level before the age of 35. They are the future of Huakaiyuan.

Soon an invisible barrier appeared in front of everyone. The elder of Huakaiyuan cast two spells to break through the strong barrier, which took less than a minute.

However, what was waiting for them were not panicked monsters, but ghosts and goblins that had already formed their array, led by two top-level female demons standing on the head of the maple leaf dragon.

The ghost girl Hongye looked at the intruder and questioned.

"People from Huakaiyuan, why are you invading my territory for no reason?"

The unrestrained demonic energy rushed straight into the sky. The demonic power close to the level of a great demon was enough to form a demonic cloud, which shocked everyone in Huakaiyuan and made attacking gestures as if they were facing a great enemy.

Hanakaiin Hideaki's face was solemn. As the overlord of Kyoto, he certainly knew the ancient existence of the demon girl Momiji. However, the demonic aura displayed by the other party was different from the records. Wasn't it said that she could not improve her strength after being sealed by Hachiman? Could it be that she broke the seal and regained her strength?
The strength of this demonic energy is now close to the level of an eighth-order big monster, not to mention that there is a strong Qing Ji next to it, and more than two hundred ghosts and monsters below.

There are three sixth-level monsters, eight fifth-level monsters, and the weakest of the remaining ones is also second-level.

Hanakaiin Hideaki asked sharply.

"I should be the one asking you, Demon Girl Hongye. Why did you expand your territory for no reason and cause unrest in the mountains of Kyoto?"

The ghost girl Hongye asked back, tapping her cheek with her finger.

"Human, with the strength of our two sisters, don't we deserve to own a large territory?"

"."

Hanakaiin Hideaki suddenly didn't know how to refute. The other party seemed to have some truth in what he said. If he was stronger than the ordinary first-rate strength, shouldn't he occupy the territory?

Although it makes some sense, Hanakaiin Hideaki will not reveal his true identity in front of the monster.

"But you have broken the rules."

Qingji and Hongye immediately revealed dangerous smiles. These humans were really domineering.

The two sides became tense during the dispute, and were on the verge of going to war at the slightest disagreement. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Hanakaiin had the upper hand.

At this moment, Master Gojo Shin and his apprentice, who were watching the show on the side, finally spoke. Their speech on behalf of the Kibune Shrine could not be ignored even by Hanakaiin.

"Please think twice, Patriarch Hanakaiin. I think the local forces in Kyoto should not continue to fight among themselves. Some time ago, a group of foreign monsters attacked the Kifune Shrine. Fortunately, Ms. Momiji and Ms. Kiyohime helped, otherwise the Kifune Shrine would have been in great danger. So I think Ms. Kiyohime and Ms. Momiji, as local monsters, are qualified to build a force of their own."

Hideaki Hanakaiin felt something was wrong when he heard this. The relationship between Kifune Shrine and the two demon women seemed to be too harmonious. If a fight broke out, would Kifune Shrine defect?
The elder Hanakaiin Hidema interrupted.

"Gojo Shin, they are monsters and we are humans, how can we mix them together?"

Gojo Shin gave a nervous smile at this.

"What's the difference between humans and monsters? Kiyohime and Hongye have been my neighbors for many years, and I know what kind of people they are. On the other hand, I don't know what kind of person you, Hanakaiin Hide, are. Let me be frank, there are big monsters among those foreign monsters, so Kiyohime, Hongye and the others need to form an offensive and defensive alliance with me."

"."

Yuzuru Nagayama, who was hiding among the group of monsters, almost laughed out loud. Momiji is not an easy person to get along with.

Hanakaiin Hideaki couldn't help but frown. Is Kibune Shrine going to stand on the side of the monster?

This is a tricky situation for Hanakaiin. The most important thing is that the big monster mentioned by the other party might be the culprit who broke into the guarding shrine last night.

Hanakaiin Hideaki thought for a moment and said.

"Gojo Shin, tell me about the great demon you mentioned."

Gojo Shin showed a meaningful smile. He knew that the other party would definitely understand what he was going to say next.

"The big monster is an old man wearing a black kimono and a haori, about 2 meters tall, wielding a samurai sword, with a very majestic appearance, and his swordsmanship is related to cherry blossoms."

When Hanakaiin Hideaki heard this, his eyes narrowed slightly. He had a candidate in mind for such a description, Hanakaiin's mortal enemy, Yuyuko's minion, the former great monster Kidomaru.

Back then, Hanakaiin's ancestor, Hanakaiin Hidemoto, teamed up with the Nara Group to defeat Yuyuko. They had become mortal enemies and could not afford to be negligent in the slightest.

If Gojo's information is correct, then have Yuyuko's minions returned to Kyoto? Didn't the Nara Group say that Yuyuko was appearing in Tokyo?

Hanakaiin Hideaki felt very heavy-hearted and no longer had much interest in Momiji and the other girl.

What's the point of fighting? A bunch of people from Huakaiyuan will still die.

At this moment, a special spiritual power fluctuation appeared. Everyone turned around and found that Hongye was holding a golden matrix in both hands. Hanakaiin Hideaki, who had read the information about the ghost girl Hongye, couldn't help but widen his eyes.

This is the starting move in the field of the demon girl Hongye. There are records in Kyoto about the subjugation of the demon girl Hongye thousands of years ago. It is described in the records that it was this move that defeated tens of thousands of troops, making her an eighth-level monster.

Hanakaiin Hideaki immediately raised his hand and shouted, "We Hanakaiin recognize your power, but you must also abide by the rules."

Hongye and Qingji looked at each other. It was true that humans were servile and would only surrender if they were taught a lesson.

The three forces soon discussed the so-called rules on the top of Mt. Kurama. The area controlled by Hongye and the others could not be expanded so far. If faced with an invasion of Mt. Kurama by external forces, they could not escape and must fulfill their responsibility to defend the territory.

During the negotiations, Yuzuru Nagayama was mixed in with the group of monsters. He was a little disappointed to see that the negotiations had ended. He had originally wanted to kill the opponent's strongest force if a fight broke out.

However, it is a good thing that Hanakaiin is willing to compromise. In this way, he can inform the other party of the approaching danger through the Ghost Ship Shrine, so as not to be ambushed and taken away. He also wants to be the one who wins.

At this moment, Yuzuru Nagayama was attracted by a gaze. He turned his head and found that it was an "acquaintance", the white-haired woman he had met in the Hundred Sages Association. Her name seemed to be Hanakaiin Shusui, a top genius who broke through to the sixth level at the age of 26.

The man next to the white-haired woman was also someone he had met at the Hundred Sages Gathering. He was a 26-year-old sixth-rank Onmyoji, Hanakaiin Ryuji.

But why was this woman staring at him? Could it be that she had seen through his disguise?

That shouldn't be the case. A mere sixth level person doesn't have this ability, unless he possesses a pair of rare spiritual eyes.

Hanakaiin Ryuji also noticed his childhood friend's gaze and couldn't help but ask.

"Qiu Shui, why are you staring at that monster?"

"That monster gave me a very scary feeling, and also a little familiar. It should be more powerful than the demon girl Hongye."

Upon hearing this, Hanakaiin Ryuji's pupils shrank slightly, and an absurd thought began to emerge in his mind. If all this was a setup by the other party, then it would be a terrible disaster if a war just started.

Two great monsters, two top-level ones, perhaps they will all be destroyed.

Hanakaiin Ryuji explained in a deep voice.

"Don't tell the clan leader and elders before you go back. Let's just go back."

"kindness."

As a think tank leader of the new generation, Ryuji Hanakaiin is well aware that some guys will really start a war on the pretext of deception. These people are intoxicated with the family's glory of the past and do not try to understand that the family is in the most dangerous moment.

If he takes a wrong step, Hanakaiin will follow in the footsteps of the Kamo family.

At the same time, in the dark cloud sky of Tokyo, a dragon roar resounded across the sky, long shadows rolled in the clouds, countless thunder and rain condensed in the clouds, and finally a huge dragon shadow enveloped a smaller dragon shadow, ending the rolling clouds.

As a rare torrential rain covered Tokyo, a huge white dragon fell from the sky, and the dragon's mournful roar attracted the attention of many people.

The scene of the dragon falling was unforgettable for many people, and some even rushed towards the place where the white dragon fell.

The 600-meter-long dragon kept adjusting its direction in the air and finally achieved its goal, crashing into the central park in Edogawa District without causing large-scale casualties.

The so-called Central Park was just a forest with an open space in the middle of the forest. The huge dragon smashed a huge pit in the middle, and many big trees were crushed.

The heavy rain washed the blood off the dragon's body. The beautiful dragon's body was covered with wounds. Some of the wounds were horrific, and even three of its claws were broken. It looked very miserable and close to death.

At this moment, two groups of people appeared around Bai Jiao. The two leaders both possessed top-level strength and were one of the few first-class forces in Tokyo.

On one side is the Saionji family, who follow the lead of the royal family, and on the other is the Taira family led by Taira Masatsugu. Since the last incident at the association headquarters, Taira Masatsugu has changed his usual behavior and become a fence-sitter, and will never completely join one side. After all, although the royal family is strong, it seems to have been suppressed by the reformists led by the Genji during this period.

The leader of the Saionji family was none other than Saionji’s ancestor, Saionji Seikuni, a centenarian of the seventh rank.

He led his family from a second-rate force to a first-rate force and was a hero.

When the two met, although Saionji Makoto looked down on Taira Masahiro, the top shame, he did not show it. After all, the two sides were on the same side for the time being.

The two old guys looked at the dying dragon with gleams in their eyes.

Although they were not sure whether the dragon was pure-blooded, they knew it was extraordinary just by looking at its size and aura.

Such an opportunity is like a mountain of wealth falling in front of them, and they have no choice but to accept it.

The two of them acted simultaneously to create a barrier that isolated all movement and sound. In their opinion, this big demon-level dragon was already in their pocket.

Ping Zhengyi said as he looked at the dragon with joy.

"Brother Chengguo, let's kill the dragon now and give each of us half. The dragon meat will definitely help both of our families advance to a higher level."

Just as Taira Masatsugu took out a knife and tried to attack, he was immediately stopped by Saionji Seikuni.

"You can't kill it. It's a dragon girl. I have a secret method to let her give birth to a descendant who will inherit dragon blood. Ping Zhengyi hopes you can give the dragon to me."

Ping Zhengyi was stunned for a moment, then retreated to a safe position to prevent the opponent from a sneak attack and killing him.

"You use the dragon as a reproductive tool, but what about me? Do you expect me to return empty-handed?"

Saionji Seikuni explained with a smile.

"I will compensate you with resources you cannot refuse."

Although Saionji Seikuni said this, if he had the chance, he would definitely choose to kill Ping Zhengyi and eat the dragon alone. He dared to bargain for a mere top-level shame.

At this moment, the unconscious dragon suddenly opened its eyes, and its huge dragon head bit towards the two men, but unfortunately the two old men easily dodged it.

Immediately afterwards, a knife mark appeared on the belly of the dragon. The person who swung the knife was none other than Saionji Seikuni, and Taira Masahiro also stepped on the dragon's head to show off his might.

"How dare you, a mere loach, be so presumptuous! Let me see how I will deal with you."

Seeing that the other party dared to step on his property, Saionji Seikuni warned him.

"Ping Zhengyi, we agreed that the Dragon Girl is mine, so retract your legs."

"I haven't agreed yet."

Just as the two old guys were arguing again, a sinister female voice filled with murderous intent sounded, slowing down the rain within the barrier.

"What are you going to do to my sister?"
