Chapter 38: Shock

"Master, what is it that is so amazing that a strong person like you can say such things?"

Shinji felt more and more the seriousness of the situation, in his impression, Master has always been so kind, steady, and powerful, as if the collapse of heaven and earth could not change his gentleness and self-confidence, but this is how he said such things now!

"My child, the cause and effect in this world have a certain number in the dark, no matter how strong they are, even gods and demons, they can't escape. You are the only disciple of the master, and in the future, the cross spear flow of my treasure courtyard will depend on you to carry it forward."

"Master, don't scare the disciples, why are you saying that, what's going on outside?"

Just as Shinji was about to continue questioning, outside the house, there was a sudden commotion and commotion, followed by shouts of killing, and the originally quiet night instantly turned into a lively rally.

"Damn, I didn't expect them to do it so quickly" Treasure Courtyard Yinei glanced at the fire outside the house hatefully, and then, turned his head and instructed Shinji: "Follow closely as a teacher, their target is the goddess!"

"Yes!" Shinji also understood how urgent the current situation was, and without saying a word, grabbed the cross spear behind his back, and followed the treasure courtyard Yinei into the chaotic crowd in front of him.

At the same time, the main entrance of the Izumo Taisha Shrine.

"Oh, Arita Miyamoto, you're here early enough!" said a thin figure who was completely black, if it weren't for the firelight around him, he would not be able to detect his existence in such a dark night, and he was Hattori Hanzo, the leader of Iga. "Our men have launched an offensive and are bound to seize the Divine Maiden in the shortest possible time and put an end to her reign. Have your people arrived?"

"Ha Luha, it's really worthy of being a ghost Hanzo, and he will always be the first to appear. "Hirata Hachiro Arita and Miyamoto Musashi also appeared, and behind them, were their respective disciples, including Takahashi Daisuke. "But then again, didn't that little girl Ise Miyun always treat you Iga preferentially, why did you even participate?"

"Arita, let's stop playing this kind of word game at this time, right?" This time it was a woman next to Hattori Hanzo, wearing a fiery leather suit, but no one dared to underestimate the strength of this person, she was the leader of the Hoga faction whose status among ninjas was second only to Hattori Hanzo, Hoga Nasano. "The goddess has always advocated self-preservation, and would rather sacrifice the interests of our Amaterasu Shrine than conflict with the Tensho Sect's bulls, if this continues, will there still be room for us to survive?

"Ha Luha, Sister Huohe, don't see outside, since we have chosen to take a dangerous move, how can we not guarantee that there is no one among us who leaks the news!" Arita grinned. "But then again, where did that guy Abe go? Probably betrayed us, right?"

"Why, I'm just a few minutes late, are you just here to speak ill of me?" In the darkness, a clear voice came, and everyone turned their heads to find that it was Abe Harumi, and behind him, there was a man and a woman, both in their thirties, wearing wide onmyoji robes, and they all looked like unusual characters.

"Abe, you're really late, so in that case, let's attack Izumo Taisha Shrine quickly. With a wave of his hand, the Suchan Divine Stream and the disciples of the Tsuchigomon clan also pounced on the disciples of Igaya, engaged in a fierce battle with the guards of the Izumo Taisha Shrine and the Shikigami Oni summoned by the organ.

"Anyway, that's it. "Treasure Courtyard Yinei stabbed to death a disciple of Iga Valley with one shot, and turned back to Shinji and said, "Arita and Miyamoto have united the people of Iga Valley and the Tsuchigomon family, and want to overthrow the goddess and usurp power themselves, how can they let their conspiracy succeed as a teacher?"

"I see" Shinji now understands everything, it turns out that Arita and Miyamoto are dissatisfied with the authority of the goddess, and feel that the goddess is just an ornament, and the existence will only curb the expansion of their own power. Moreover, Arita is also an extremely ambitious person, and he has always hoped that Amaterasu Jingu can become the most powerful force in Shenzhou, and even completely wipe out the remaining four sects. Under the cover of the Shenzhou Conference, Arita was able to prepare smoothly, but this evening, Arita suddenly attacked. "Master, didn't you say that there is another person besides you who has decided to be loyal to His Highness Meiyun?"

"That's right, quick, the goddess is inside, work hard!" Treasure Courtyard Yinei killed the enemy in front of him, jumped up suddenly, and climbed over the high wall of Izumo Taisha in one fell swoop, Shinji followed closely behind.

When he arrived at the innermost side of the Izumo Taisha Shrine, Shinji found that not only Miyun Ise was here, but also Haruko Abe!

"Miss Haruko, why are you here?" Shinji suddenly understood, maybe the other person who was loyal to the goddess that the master said was Abe Harumi. "Where is Lord Qingming now?"

"Father, he's outside. Haruko Abe kept casting spells one after another in her hands, but her eyes were looking out uneasily.

"Haruko, don't be distracted, Lord Abe will be fine, we have to trust him. At this time, Ise Miyun was casting a strange spell, and in front of her, there was a long sword, an ancient mirror, and an emerald green magatama, which Shinji recognized, which were the three artifacts of Amaterasu Shrine, Kusanagi, Yagashika, and Yachikutama!

"But Dad, why did he choose such a dangerous path?"

"Abe-sama is a smart man, and he must have done this for a reason. The light on Meiyun's body became stronger and stronger, and gradually, the Eight Mirrors projected an illusion, as if on the other side of the mirror, there was an unknown world!" "The critical moment has come, Haruko, keep up the good work!"

"What the hell is going on?" Shinji couldn't comprehend the situation in front of him, and didn't know what Miyun was going to do. But at this moment, with a muffled sound, the shouts of the crowd sounded not far away!

"What to do! The main gate has been breached!" Miyun's voice panicked.

"It seems that the time is now. Treasure Courtyard Yinei let out a low roar, turned his head to look at Shinji, and Shinji was horrified to find that Treasure Courtyard Yinei's eyes at this time were a kind of consciousness of dying!"I will drag them at the main gate, Shinji, protect the goddess!"

"Master, don't!" Shinji understood the plan of the treasure temple Yinei, he was going to delay the enemy's entry into the Izumo Taisha as much as possible at the cost of his own life!

"Idiot, the origin of the fate is extinguished, the clouds rise and the clouds disappear, how can there be a feast in the world that will not be dispersed?" Yinrong's beard fluttered gently in the night breeze, he looked at the bright moon in the sky, and said slowly: "As a teacher, the young man is like an empty door, learning the cross spear technique of the Treasure Academy, after thirty years of painstaking cultivation, he finally reached the peak." Looking back, the happiest thing about being a teacher is not how many opponents you have defeated and how high your martial arts reputation you have obtained, but watching your group of children grow up slowly, like when I was young, little by little, breaking out of your own path. Now, the sect will fall into the hands of thieves, how can I, as a member of Amaterasu Shrine, survive in the world? But my apprentice, you are still young, you still have your own life, and you still have to keep the last glimmer of hope in my Amaterasu Shrine, that is, to protect the goddess, open the passage in the Eight Mirrors, and go to the unknown realm of another world, as long as the goddess is still there, our Amaterasu Shrine will not perish! Do you understand, the painstaking work of being a teacher?"

"The apprentice understands, the apprentice must remember the master's teachings" At this point, Shinji couldn't stop crying.

"That's good. Yin Rong closed his eyes. "Good boy, the safety of the goddess will be handed over to you, and I will go for the teacher!"

With that, Yin Rong of the Treasure Courtyard strode out of the room, and never looked back after all.

"Haha, capture the goddess and create a new history of Amaterasu Shrine, right now!" Arita laughed wildly and rushed into the inner courtyard of the Izumo Taisha Shrine, and behind him were Miyamoto Musashi, Hattori Hanzo and others, everyone with a fanatical look on their faces.

"Then I'll lead someone to surround the inner shrine first, and Senior Brother Arita will go in from the front and grab the goddess!" Abe Harumi suggested.

"Abe is worthy of being a great onmyoji, and his wisdom is extraordinary! Okay, it's up to you!"

"So, take your leave!" Abe Harumi turned to leave.

"The next thing is to catch the goddess, who is it!"

Unexpectedly, at this time, a burst of gunfire flashed, and in an instant, more than a dozen young disciples fell to the ground, with several more transparent holes on their bodies, and Higa Nasuno was also scratched on his arm, and hurriedly retreated.

"Treasure Courtyard Yinrong, you finally appeared!" Arita stared at the thin figure fiercely, as if he wanted to eat the other party alive.

"Just you goods, you want to subvert Amaterasu Shrine?

Yin Rong of the Treasure Courtyard roared violently, picked up the spear in his hand, and killed the crowd in front of him without fear!

"Your Highness Miun, how's it going?" Shinji asked anxiously after killing one of the snuck in again.

"Shinji-kun, please hold on a little longer, it'll be right away!" Sweat dripped across Miyun's pretty face, and Haruko Abe next to her was no better, her face was pale, it seemed that this teleportation spell was really difficult to use.

"Your Highness Meiyun, is there really an escape passage in the Eight Mirrors?"

"That's right, in our goddess's family, there is such a secret, Amaterasu in order to prevent his children from being killed one day in the future, so he left a spatial passage in the Yaga mirror, which only the goddess can open. If nothing goes wrong, this passage will be opened in no time, and we can get out of here!"

But at this moment, the roar of Yinrong of the Treasure Courtyard came from the door!

"Come, apostate!"
