After comforting Little Ziyuan who was crying, Hyōjin turned his gaze to the figure standing quietly behind Little Ziyuan.
The other party is a young boy who is not much older than Itachi, with a decent appearance and a pair of glasses on his face.
However, at this moment, he was carrying a longbow that was almost as tall as him on his back and a short sword on his waist. He looked travel-worn, but there was an indescribable determination in his exhaustion, giving off an indescribable sense of reliability.
"Let's talk inside the house!"
After leading the two into the house, Hyōjin handed them two cups of hot tea.
After the two drank the hot tea and warmed their bodies, Hyōjin asked in a deep voice, "Ziyuan, what happened? Don't worry, tell me slowly!"
The status of Miko-sama in the Land of Demons is equivalent to the combination of Naruto and the Land of Fire Daimyo in the Land of Demons. She is undoubtedly the supreme ruler of the Land of Demons. Not only does she have a large number of priests and guards, but the palace she lives in is also a heavily guarded castle.
Even if she encounters a strong enemy that she can't contend with for a while, Miko-sama only needs to open the barrier around the palace and ask for help from the surrounding villages, and basically she can easily repel the enemy.
The grass on the grave of the leader of the Yomi Cult that attacked the Land of Demons, Hyōjin estimated that the grass on their leader's grave is two feet high.
Without waiting for Little Ziyuan to speak, the young guard named 'Asuka' on the side said, "It's Yomi Cult, they have resurrected and launched a rebellion in the Land of Demons!"
Hyōjin was startled for a moment, then said with certainty, "That's impossible, their leader is dead!"
Asuka replied, "At first, we also thought that the leader of Yomi Cult was dead, so we relaxed our vigilance, but we didn't expect that he would suddenly appear this time, catching us off guard!"
Hyōjin said again in a deep voice, "He is dead!"
Huang Quan was personally killed by Hyōjin, so he was very sure that the leader of Huang Quan Cult was dead, dead through and through!
Asu said, "When we were fleeing, we saw him once from afar. He … He's really still alive!"
At this time, Little Ziyuan also nodded. "Yes, I saw it too. That bad guy is not dead!"
"How is this possible?!"
Kuroto clearly remembers that at that time, he cut off Yomi's head as a precaution against any eventuality.
Even if he has the Tenseigan, unless he uses the secret technique 'Soul Descent Technique' in advance and abandons his body, once he is beheaded, Hyōjin will not be able to escape death.
"Maybe it's an imitation puppet, maybe it's a transformation spell or something …"
Thinking of this, Hyōjin asked Asui, "What exactly happened? Tell me from the beginning!"
Although Asuka isn't very old, her thinking is very clear, so she quickly recounted what happened in the Land of Demons to Suijin.
It turned out that a month ago, Miko-sama suddenly had an inexplicable premonition, so she immediately ordered Asu and 20 guards to escort Little Ziyuan to Muye Village.
As soon as the escort team set off from the palace, a large-scale rebellion broke out in the Country of Demons. The dormant remnants of Yomi Cult jumped out one after another and wreaked havoc in the Country of Demons.
Naturally, the escort team was also attacked by these fanatics. As a last resort, the escort team could only act separately, sacrificing some of the guards to distract the fanatics of Yomi Cult.
In such a fierce battle, when they rushed out of the Country of Demons, only the youngest of the 20 guards, Asu, was left.
Fortunately, Asuka was alert enough. She brought Shisuan to Konoha alone and safely arrived at Konoha. She handed Shisuan over to Kuroto, who was designated by Miko.
Stroking his chin, Hyōjin pondered for a long time before slowly asking, "So, Miko-sama sent you to escort Ziyuan Little to Muye Village before the enemy showed up?"
Asu nodded and said, "Yes, Miko-sama asked us to send Miss Ziyuan Little to you."
Ziyuan interrupted and said, "Big brother, my mom can predict things that haven't happened yet!"
Asu quickly explained, "In some things, Miko-sama has a subtle sense of the future."
Kuroto nodded, he wasn't surprised by this.
In the Original World, Ziyuan also had this ability. In the Country of Demons, she had made many 'Death Prophecies', and all of them came true. The only time the prophecy failed was with Naruto, the reincarnation of Asura.
What Hyōjin cared about was not the Miko-sama's' Death Prophecy 'ability, but the Miko-sama's arrangement.
Why did Miko-sama send Ziyuan Little to him in such a hurry? Before the incident, whose death did her 'Death Prophecy' predict?
After thinking about it, Hyōjin felt that the only reasonable explanation was that Miko-sama's' Death Prophecy 'predicted her own death, so she felt that there was no way to continue to protect Ziyuan Little Ziyuan Little to Muye Village.
"With the remaining forces of Yomi, even if their leader Yomi is not dead, they won't be able to cause any waves, unless …" After a pause, Hyōjin's face gradually became gloomy: "Unless there are other forces involved, such as the Akatsuki Organization!"
Hyōjin quickly linked the matter of the Country of Demons with the Akatsuki Organization. After all, with Hiruko's personality, his strength has greatly increased after completing the Kekkei Genkai Ceremony, so he shouldn't be so quiet.
"If the Akatsuki Organization is involved, then Miko-sama would be …"
Miko-sama's sealing technique and sensing ability can be regarded as the best in the Shinobi World, but her combat power is not too good, so once the Akatsuki Organization finds a way to break the barrier, Miko-sama and her guards together won't be able to defeat them.
Thinking of this, Hyōjin glanced at Ziyuan Little Ziyuan Little Ziyuan's tender face covered with tears, and a sense of guilt rose in his heart.
He felt that Miko-sama sent Ziyuan Little to his side, in addition to trusting him and thinking that he can protect Little Ziyuan Little, she probably also blamed him for not completely eradicating Yomi Yakuza as agreed.
Although most of the dealings between Hyōjin and Miko-sama were transactions with mutual conditions, Miko-sama's guidance to Hyōjin in sealing technique is real.
And this kind of kindness can't be measured with money, so even if he guessed that Miko-sama has probably met with an accident, Hyōjin must go to the Country of Demons.
After settling Little Ziyuan and Asuho at home, Hyōjin went to a secluded place alone and asked Shinichi about the current situation of the Akatsuki Organization through Miko-sama.
If the Akatsuki Organization really intervened in the Country of Demons, then Shinichi who is in the Akatsuki Organization should have received some news …
