Under the moonlit night.
The summit of Mount Fuji was covered in a layer of white snow.
It was as if a thin veil had been draped over it, giving it an ethereal and holy appearance.
The cherry blossoms around it were in full bloom, and they were either translucent white or vibrant pink under the moonlight, creating a spectacular and enchanting sight to behold.
An Lin and Xu Xiaolan strolled hand in hand along a mountain path.
This place had yet to be fully developed, and there was still a quarantine zone, so normal people wouldn't be able to get here.
They chose to stroll here as the scenery here was quite spectacular. There were cherry blossom trees on both sides of the path, making it a perfect place to admire cherry blossoms.
A cool breeze blew past, and the cherry blossom trees on both sides of the path rustled in the wind. Pink flower petals fell from the branches, and the cherry blossoms fell like rain, dancing in the air under the bright moonlight.
The flower petals fell on their heads, shoulders, and faces, but they didn't try to avoid them. Instead, they were basking in the tranquil beauty of this moment.
Xu Xiaolan couldn't help but catch the falling cherry blossoms with a smile. "Cherry blossoms only bloom for a very short period of time, and they're at their most vibrant and beautiful when they fall from the tree … They're at their most beautiful, just like the Epiphyllum flower …"
"But my Xiaolan is different. She's always stunningly beautiful, and she can continue to be beautiful forever," An Lin said with an honest expression.
Xu Xiaolan knew that An Lin was just sucking up to her, but she still smiled with elation.
"Well said, you'll get a kiss as a reward."
"Hmm …"
The two of them continued onward after a brief kiss.
The small path continued forward, and before they knew it, they had arrived at a place with lanterns hanging on the walls. It was an antique building that was exquisitely constructed and simple.
The pavilion had three levels, and the interior was glowing with a warm light.
There were many white cherry blossom trees planted around the pavilion, giving it a very artistic appearance.
"This is a nice place," Xu Xiaolan said with an intrigued expression.
An Lin looked at the signboard and murmured to himself, "Night Cherry Snow-Blowing Pavilion, that's a nice name, but I don't know if they host guests here."
"Let's go and have a look." Xu Xiaolan acted as if she had discovered a secret base, and she dragged An Lin along with her.
The two of them approached each other.
Two beautiful witches with murderous intent emerged from the Nightcherry Snow-Blowing House.
"Stop right there! This was private property! You are not allowed to trespass! "One of the witches said stiffly.
An Lin and Xu Xiaolan's footsteps came to a halt, and an awkward look appeared on their faces.
"How about this? I'll give you the money, and you let us in to take a look," An Lin argued.
The other witch sneered and said, "Who cares about your stinky money? You don't know the immensity of heaven and earth. Get lost! This is not a place that you mortals can touch. We are already being merciful by not forcefully detaining you. "
An Lin and Xu Xiaolan were a little disappointed. Although they were a little interested in this place, they couldn't do such a tasteless thing like breaking into a private house. Now that they were stopped, they naturally didn't want to go in.
"So be it. Dongfang Xue's concert is about to begin, so let's go watch it," An Lin suggested.
"Hmm … But … I only want to see cherry blossoms now." Xu Xiaolan latched onto An Lin's arm as she spoke in a spoiled manner.
An Lin stroked Xu Xiaolan's long, silky hair with a doting smile. "Alright, let's go see cherry blossoms then."
The two of them turned to leave.
At this moment, one of the witches suddenly changed her mind. "Stop right there!"
"What is it?" An Lin asked.
"This place is off-limits to tourists, but you two have suddenly appeared here. This is extremely suspicious, and on top of that, the two of you don't appear to be mortals …" the witch spoke in a slow voice.
"So?" An Lin asked.
The witch raised her chin with a cold expression. "So I'm going to detain you two and interrogate you in detail. I'll let you go after the investigation is complete!"
An Lin: "…"
Xu Xiaolan: "…"
"You think you can detain me?" An Lin couldn't help but burst into laughter.
A disdainful smile appeared on the witch's face. "So you've shown your true colors. You really are cultivators. Do you not know what kind of place this is? No place in the entire Japanese nation can compare to our Snowy Night Cherry House when it comes to trapping and killing enemies! "
The other witch had already pulled out a beautiful wooden statue of a female before chanting in a low voice, "Activate the formation, Thousand Cherry Slaughter Formation!"
Whoosh whoosh whoosh …
The cherry trees around the Snowy Night Cherry House began to quickly tremble.
Countless white cherry blossom petals suddenly detached from the trees before dancing in the air, creating a powerful cherry blossom formation in a radius of several hundred meters. Each and every cherry blossom petal was translucent and white under the moonlight, and their beauty was imbued with terrifying killing intent.
"The cherry blossoms are quite beautiful as well," Xu Xiaolan commented with an appreciative expression.
The witch maintained the formation as she approached An Lin and Xu Xiaolan with a frosty expression. "Don't resist and submit to our investigation, or you'll be killed without mercy!"
At this moment, a small window on the second floor of the Snowy Night Cherry House opened.
A beautiful woman in a red kimono leaned against the window and looked at the scene in front of her with a cold expression. "Chun 'er, if they resist, don't make them bleed when you kill them. It's bad luck."
She was the housekeeper of the Snowy Night Cherry House, and ever since Ying Luoqing had gone to Tokyo to watch the concert, she had absolute authority here.
"Yes," the witch referred to as Chun 'er replied with a respectful expression.
There were more than one or two cultivators disguised as passersby to investigate the Snowy Night Cherry House, so they didn't mind killing a few more.
"Surrender now. Otherwise, don't blame me for being cruel and merciless." The witch wielded the wooden carving of the formation core in her hand as killing intent soared from her eyes.
"Sigh, Xiao Lan, I'm clearly a very kind-hearted person, why am I being misunderstood as a bad person?" An Lin wore a distressed expression as he turned to the woman beside him. "Have you seen enough? If you have, we're leaving."
He couldn't be bothered with the rude remarks of a junior, so he wanted to take her to other places to admire the night cherry.
Xu Xiaolan shook her head as a light flashed through her eyes. "An Lin, when the formation was activated, I couldn't help but use my consciousness, and guess what I discovered?"
"What did you discover?" An Lin asked.
Xu Xiaolan looked up at the Snowy Night Cherry House. "I discovered a familiar aura in the room up ahead, and it's related to your aura …"
An Lin's body shuddered upon hearing this. "Impossible! I've never been here before! "
"You want to go in and have a look?" Xu Xiaolan was a little curious.
"Of course," An Lin immediately replied in a hurry to prove his innocence.
"What are you two babbling about? Don't tell me I don't dare to kill you!" The witch was enraged by the sight of An Lin and Xu Xiaolan still chatting casually, and she waved her hand through the air, sending the surrounding cherry blossoms flying toward An Lin and Xu Xiaolan like blades!
"Little girl, that's not how you should use the formation."
A voice suddenly rang in his ears.
Miko-sama noticed that the man was already standing in front of her.
"You …!" Her expression shifted drastically, but in the next instant, the formation core in her hand had already appeared in the man's hand. She didn't even have time to react.
"The formation should be used like this …" An Lin held the beautiful wooden sculpture in his hand and injected his vital energy into it with a smile, upon which the massive patterns on the sculpture suddenly expanded and transformed.
Boundless energy fluctuations expanded to infinity.
Boom!
A violent tremor erupted.
All of the cherry blossoms on Mount Fuji blossomed at the same time, and the entire sky was filled with cherry blossoms.
Outside the Night Cherry Snow-Blowing House, the cherry blossoms surrounding An Lin suddenly transformed into countless streaks of light before materializing into a semi-transparent woman in a witch's robe with a serene and graceful disposition.
The primordial divine power surged forth, drawing upon the bloodline of all of the witches present, and all of them knelt to the ground as their bodies trembled uncontrollably.
Thump … The sound of a cup falling onto the table erupted from the second floor of the Snowy Night Cherry House.
The butler in a kimono stared at the scenes unfolding before his eyes in astonishment. "This is … the descent of a god?!"
