Chapter 180: Chapter 128: The Final Battle in Sakura City! (Two in One, Subscription Request)_4 Chapter 180: Chapter 128: The Final Battle in Sakura City! (Two in One, Subscription Request)_4 The Sakura Emperor and the Prime Minister naturally had to be present at the scene.
However, the Cabinet Secretary and some key ministers tacitly left the main hall and were arranged to head to the emergency evacuation passage to plan for the worst-case scenario.
As the gates of the Imperial Palace opened,
the Fox-faced Witch, following behind with Kamo Junichiro leading the way like an attendant, entered the Imperial Palace.
Journalists from Huaqi Country fearlessly rushed out, shouting to wait a moment.
They were immediately overrun by the guards, who gave them a taste of the “I Can’t Breathe” special from back home.
Inside the Imperial Palace,
the Fox-faced Witch looked around curiously,
appearing like a little girl who had never seen the world before.
Yet no servant around dared to internally mock the witch.
After all, she was a genuine Transcendent!
Not only did she arrive by direct descent, she moved about without her feet ever touching the ground.
And as her gaze swept over everyone,
even with a fox mask,
those she looked upon felt chills run down their spine, and even their hair stood on end as if electrocuted.
Soon, with no obstacles, the Fox-faced Witch met with the Sakura Emperor and the Prime Minister along with Kamo Junichiro.
They also saw the Divine Officers and Onmyoji from various sects standing by like background boards.
These people were somewhat surprised to see Kamo Junichiro.
Especially the Kamo Clan Leader who was there, his eyes widened in disbelief that this little swindler of his own could be accompanying a real Fox-faced Witch.
He was a bit worried that this guy might have recklessly promised something to save his own life.
If so, it would be their whole family who would suffer!
“I have seen the current Sakura Emperor.”
The Fox-faced Witch raised her head to look at the Sakura Emperor, without any bowing or kneeling.
She simply continued in a calm tone,
“I am a witch who serves the Nine-tailed Fox God, you may call me… Sakura!”
“This visit was provoked by my detection of someone practicing Evil Technique, inadvertently breaking the seal of Evil Spirit, resulting in the appearance of Undead Demons.”
“Thus, I’ve come urgently hoping for your help, to reseal the Evil Spirit and restore normalcy.”
Having stated this, the Fox-faced Witch paused and then added,
“This way, I won’t need to report this matter to the Palace Master and can save a lot of trouble.”
The Prime Minister, the ministers, and the Divine Officers, all shrewd people, immediately understood that the Fox-faced Witch came to them just to quickly handle the Evil Spirit incident privately, thus avoiding reporting it to higher authorities and facing punishment?
One must say, such a reason sounded suspicious… yet all the more believable!
Furthermore, from the frontline battle reports, the characteristics of these demons being undead or hard to kill had indeed been confirmed.
It was the Sakura Emperor who spoke first, and the Prime Minister concurred.
Regarding the proposal by the Fox-faced Witch,
Sakura Country naturally agreed one hundred percent!
However, when they designated Kamo Junichiro as the one to lead the Array, there was a stir among the Divine Officers.
The Fox-faced Witch glanced at the Divine Officers and Onmyoji,
and a sensation of electric shock made them cool down quickly.
“In a way, you all are also descendants of those great persons.”
“However… From this scene, except for him, none of you possess the talent to lead the Array!”
The Kamo Clan Leader looked again at Kamo Junichiro standing by the side.
Suddenly, he found his grandson increasingly pleasing to the eye.
He secretly made a decision, if it was proven that Kamo Junichiro truly had talent,
he would immediately designate him as his successor!
He even considered stepping down to let the younger generation lead.
The other sect’s Divine Officers and Onmyoji also realized, their expressions complex as they looked at Kamo Junichiro,
and they subtly suspected that their whole life’s inability to truly practice might be related to the talent mentioned by the Fox-faced Witch!
Just what was this talent?
They were clearly from the families with the best cultivation talent mentioned in their Secret Techniques.
So why were they inferior to this so-called minor figure in the Kamo Family?
Could it be… that their inheritance was flawed from a long time ago? Were the premises of those Secret Techniques wrong from the start?
The leaders of Sakura Country’s sects fell into severe self-doubt.
Fortunately, despite the self-doubt, the pressing task at hand was definitely their top priority.
As these people began to take action,
perhaps spurred by the stimulus of transcendence, they exhibited unprecedented efficiency!
The park in front of the Imperial Palace’s main gate was cleared by force!
Each sect’s best family members and disciples were awakened and gathered together.
A large contingent of manpower and resources was concentrated in this park, preparing for the magic meeting to drive away the evils!
