Chapter 161 - Chapter 159 Visiting the Tengu and Conflict

"Let's choose this place."

Leaving the Tengu Hidden Village, the two set up spatial coordinates on a flat mountaintop.

Bai Luo received the news and immediately opened the door to the Different Space.

With spatial abilities like the Void Ark, which can cross worlds, a mere teleportation within the same plane is effortless.

"Lord Bai Luo!"

Upon seeing Bai Luo, Hong Maru immediately knelt on one knee.

"Mm, Hong Maru, you've done very well."

Bai Luo helped Hong Maru up, then looked at Hong Ye and teased, "Not bad, you're quite blessed with female companions."

"This..."

A single sentence made both Hong Maru and Hong Ye incredibly shy.

"Their blushing is also very synchronized."

Bai Luo indicated that these two were indeed a good match, and he waved behind him, "Zhu Cai, come quickly and see your future sister-in-law."

"Coming, coming."

"Let me see too!"

"240" "Oh oh, isn't she super cute!"

"Hello, my name is Zi Yuan."

The girl grabbed Hong Ye's hand, "Please take care of me!"

"Please, please take care of me..."

Hong Ye was startled by the enthusiastic Zi Yuan.

One might not know, but they would think Zi Yuan was Hong Maru's biological younger sister.

"This Zi Yuan..."

Bai Luo shook his head inwardly, truly having no way to deal with this girl.

Besides, this was already a joyous occasion, and Bai Luo didn't want to appear too serious.

Especially towards Hong Ye and Elder Feng's faction.

Since they intended to surrender, Bai Luo naturally had to display the demeanor of an enlightened lord.

"So many people came?"

Hong Maru first exchanged pleasantries with Zhu Cai and Zi Yuan.

However, upon seeing Snow Empress and Ice Empress, Hong Maru's pupils instinctively contracted slightly.

Good heavens!

These two women were pure, living King Yan.

The kind who kill without batting an eye.

Originally, Hong Maru was worried that the Tengu Clan might offend Bai Luo.

Now?

He could only let the Hawk Faction Tengu pray for their own good fortune.

"Is this the Tengu Clan's sacred mountain?"

"It feels a bit barren."

Artoria followed closely behind Bai Luo, and the spatial gate, as Peng Peng bounced out, began to shrink and disappear.

"It's a bit like Peng Peng's hometown, the Ghost Mountain."

Egui Peng was quite familiar with the environment on this mountain; Kitakami, where she originally lived, was just such a place.

After being cared for by Bai Luo, the little one had long since let go of her past painful memories.

"Hmm?"

On the other side, Artoria was quietly staring in a certain direction.

"Over there..."

At that location, Artoria sensed spatial fluctuations: "So that's it, they used the Different Space to hide the true village?"

"They can actually discover our village?!"

Hong Ye didn't expect Artoria to have such keen eyesight.

Then she looked at the other girls accompanying Bai Luo.

Snow Empress, Artoria, Egui Peng.

The three gave Hong Ye a very dangerous feeling.

'I'll die!'

Her instincts told Hong Ye that if she fought these three, she would surely die.

Then there were Ice Empress, Zhu Cai, and Zi Yuan.

The pressure they exerted on Hong Ye wasn't as great as Snow Empress's, but it was equally clear.

Undoubtedly, each of the six girls Bai Luo brought possessed an amount of magic essence equal to or even surpassing hers.

'It's too exaggerated!'

Hong Ye didn't know how to describe Bai Luo's forces.

She could only say that her mother's judgment was correct, and her father had not deceived them.

'Unfortunately, those guys won't compromise easily.'

Hong Ye was referring to the Hawk Faction Tengu.

These people were overly arrogant, incredibly stubborn, the type who wouldn't turn back until they hit a wall.

"Lord Bai Luo, it's a pleasure to meet you."

"My name is Hong Ye, and I am the acting elder of the Tengu Clan."

"My father and Hong Maru have spoken to me about you," Hong Ye's posture was very humble: "Next, please allow me to show you around the Tengu Hidden Village."

"Mm, thank you for your trouble."

Bai Luo said, "However, the tour can wait; first, take me to visit your mother, Elder Feng."

"Alright."

"Please follow me."

Hong Ye acted decisively, directly leading Bai Luo and the others towards Elder Feng's residence.

"Buzz~~"

As they crossed the Different Space, the Tengu Hidden Village, hidden behind the continuous green mountains, revealed its serene beauty to everyone.

This was a Japanese-style paradise, a secret realm untouched by the outside world's clamor.

Ancient trees reached the sky, and greenery abounded.

Sunlight filtered through the gaps, casting dappled shadows, and the air was filled with a faint floral scent.

Along the winding path, the crisp chirping of birds and the distant gurgling of a stream could be heard.

A gentle breeze blew, bringing a refreshing coolness, and butterflies danced in the grass, seemingly welcoming the distant guests 0....

Looking into the distance, one could see patches of rice paddies like a green ocean, swaying in the wind, making a rustling sound.

"It's a very beautiful place."

Bai Luo commented on the Tengu Clan's sacred mountain.

"Thank you for your praise."

Hong Ye was a bit nervous, not because of Bai Luo, but because she was afraid they would be discovered by the Hawk Faction Tengu.

She worried that those people would do something irrational.

"Outsiders again?"

Indeed, a group of men wearing black haori, with wings on their backs and red masks on their faces, walked out.

Behind him followed four or five other Tengu dressed similarly.

These were the Hawk Faction Tengu who caused trouble for Hong Ye and Elder Feng.

They were not content with their small plot of land on the sacred mountain and were determined to expand their territory and invade others.

But the problem was, these people simply didn't know the vastness of the world.

Elder Feng had been outside.

She knew how big this world was and how many powerful individuals there were.

Once the Tengu left this easily defensible Different Space, their fate would be to become vassals of a Demon Lord at best.

If they were unlucky and offended some force, their clan would likely be annihilated.

"Zhu Yu, stop fooling around."

"This Lord is not someone you can offend!"

Hong Ye quickly stood in front of Bai Luo, staring intently at the man named Zhu Yu and the Tengu following him.

The worst-case scenario had occurred, making things very difficult for Hong Ye.

"What's wrong!"

"You haven't even made a decision yet, and you're already so submissive, calling him 'Lord' over and over."

"Hong Ye, do you still have the honor of being a Tengu Clan member?"

Perhaps Hong Ye's words provoked them, immediately drawing curses from these Tengu.

"Enough!"

"Last warning, get back immediately!"

Hong Ye was getting angry; her magic essence surged around her, clearly intending to suppress them with force.

No matter what, she couldn't let them continue to cause trouble.

In just this short time, Hong Ye had already felt the murderous gazes from Snow Empress and Ice Empress.

If she didn't act faster, they would make a move.

Adding to that the Tengu whose attention had been drawn by Zhu Yu and the others' obstruction.

Hong Ye already felt that the situation was about to spiral out of control.

For the sake of the Tengu Clan, she was prepared to kill!
