Netherworld, Yama Valley.

As the ghostly name suggests, this flat valley on the edge of the Oni Clan's territory is shrouded in an unknown black fog all year round. Legend has it that in ancient times, this gloomy and miserable valley was the place where Yan Jundao, who was known for his thirst for killing; According to rumors, this ancient true immortal was a true immortal who preached the Tao by killing, and even had the reputation of "human slaughter" before he entered the Tao; As its dojo, this valley of Yan Jun was naturally also arranged in the cruel style that this Yan Jun loved - this style is so distinct that thousands of years later, the ghost inhabitants living around this valley can often find the remains of many giant Jingguan temples in the mountains.

For now, however, this uncanny valley that locals avoid is a bustling scene:

Above this flat and narrow valley, immortal halls with different styles and magnificent atmosphere hovered quietly; Colorful lights shuttle back and forth between these glorious and magnificent creations, and under the reflection of the huge full moon in the dark sky, this bizarre picture is rendered quite a bit of science fiction.

"Koyanagi, you say... How did you choose the place for this meeting? ”

Leaning on a thick pillar, his silver-white hair was loosely draped, Tu Shanlan glanced at the canyon below him with very dissatisfied eyes:

"I don't know who picked it, why did you choose this kind of ugly ghost place?"

Well, that's right - it's a "ghost place".

"Hmm......"

Satisfied, stroking the soft fur of the little fox in his arms, and hearing Tu Shanlan's complaints, Zhu Liu, who was petting the fox, organized a language:

"Xiaolan, you can't say that...... Probably for the sake of balance, right? ”

Although he is not very experienced, Zhu Liu still has more experience than Tu Shanlan, who is not familiar with the world:

"Xiaolan, what do you think, although they were forced to join forces this time because of the matter of Tianhai Mirror, there was no trust between these forces in the first place; If the address of the meeting is selected in the core area of one of the parties......

- Naturally, no one is at ease.

"Hey, even if that's the case, then you don't have to choose such a ghost place, right?"

Although he has comprehended the meaning of Zhu Liu's words, as a glorious member of the Appearance Association, Tu Shanlan is still haunted by the gloomy and miserable appearance of this valley:

"Humph! I don't know which discerning guy chose it? ”

“……”

Hearing Tu Shanlan's complaint, Zhu Liu rolled his eyes a little speechlessly:

Girl, that visionless person is your mother!

"Koyanagi?"

Suddenly, Tu Shanlan interrupted Zhu Liu's inner complaint with some curious voice:

"You like it very much...... Well, what does that look like? ”

Pointing to the tearful little white fox in Zhu Liu's arms, Tu Shanlan's somewhat immature face was full of curiosity.

"Well, ahem, my ......"

Reluctantly let go of Tu Shanyouyou in his arms, and Zhu Liu's old face turned red when asked:

- Na, what should I do if a fox girl finds out that she is a plush control?!

Online and more! It's urgent!

"That's... Seems to be true? ”

Seeing Zhu Liu's reaction, he bit his lip lightly, and a slight flush suddenly surged on Tu Shanlan's cheeks:

"Well, since Koyanagi likes it......"

"Bang!"

With a soft sound, Tu Shanlan's figure was suddenly wrapped in a cloud of pink smoke.

？？？

It didn't take long for the pink smoke to gradually dissipate under Zhu Liu's gaze full of question marks.

"Boom!"

(Koyanagi hug!) ）

Stunned, he looked at the little blue-eyed white fox in front of him who was between a pile of dresses, and after only a moment of hesitation, Zhu Liu's claws stretched out uncontrollably:

Hmm, squishy ......

Fragrant ......

Tiny ......

Hairy......!!!

Boom, I can't control my chances!!

————————————————

And Zhu Liu is happy here (?) In this immortal hall, which was chosen as the venue for the talks, the atmosphere was already tense:

"Bang!"

The slender palm slapped heavily on the jade case, and Tu Shanlan, who had always been light-hearted, seemed to be really angry this time:

"It's just too deceitful!"

"Alas, why should Elder Lan be angry?"

didn't care about Tu Shanlan's unintentional burst of majestic momentum, on the table opposite Tu Shanlan, a thin old man with a pale face was calm and relaxed:

"Elder Lan, the nobleman is an ancient immortal sect, with a big family and strong strength; Now that the catastrophe is coming, as the leader of my Netherworld, don't the nobles even have to be stingy with these Xu Ling Stones? ”

"The leader of the Netherworld?"

Listening to the old man's questioning with hidden evil intentions, Tu Shanlan smiled coldly:

"Zhao Lao is wearing a good high hat for us! Leader? But the nobles have never obeyed the orders of our clan in their daily lives, right? ”

Looking at the people in the hall with a hidden gaze, Tu Shanlan's sharp counterattack continued:

“…… On weekdays, no one respects him, but now he wants to pull it out and slaughter it? Old Zhao, I think this 'leader' is none other than a nobleman, and with such a heavy responsibility, my clan is afraid that he can't afford it! ”

"Ahem, why is Elder Lan so excited!"

Just a moment later, a male voice that surprised Tu Shanlan broke the silence:

"Elder Lan, your and my clan have always been friendly, but the stakes are very high, and now I can't say that I can only abolish my personal interests for the sake of public affairs;"

Facing Tu Shanlan's angry eyes, the honest-looking Wu clan man smiled apologetically:

"The nobles have a strong family background, and we Wu clan also know this very well. Now, Tianhai Mirror is in the world, and the catastrophe is coming, and we just want the nobles to take their due responsibility; With a sincere smile, the burly high priest of the Wu clan looked at Tu Shanlan with a sincere face: "What's more, I don't want Elder Lan to destroy the family and relieve the trouble—it's just a mere fifty percent of the spirit stones, and for the nobles, this is not even a broken muscle, right?" ”

Heh, have even the Wu Clan been pulled over?

Although her face was still calm, listening to the man's speech, Tu Shanlan's heart sank heavily:

Hmph, that's really deliberate.

"Elder Lan, the high priest is reasonable, please think twice!"

"Our clan also hopes that Elder Lan can focus on the overall situation."

……

Listening to this echoing words, Tu Shanlan's face sank like water:

Also, for these people, a powerful fox clan is too much of an eyesore.
