In the middle of the night, the head of Matsuo Taisha, as the host, called out Sei Itō and his wife, as well as another Onmyoji and two shamans to have a meal together. They wanted to get to know each other, so that they could get along well in the next few days. 【59
"Come, let me introduce you." During the banquet, Matsuo Yakusho, who was sitting on the main seat, pointed at Eriko and Mori Ito and said, "These two are Eriko Ito and her youngest son, Mori Ito from the Ito family in Tokyo."
"Nice to meet you." Eriko and Sei Itō bowed.
"This is Mr. Sasakawa Ryuwei from Osaka Prefecture." The head of the Matsuo Society pointed at a middle-aged Yin Yang Master with a wretched face who was sitting on the left side of the short table. He was a little short compared to the head of the Matsuo Society who was less than 1.7 meters tall. Although it was just a simple introduction, the fact that Matsuo Yakushi had arranged for him to sit on the left-hand side of the main seat showed that Matsuo Yakushi valued Yukawa Ryuwei more than Eriko, the witch from Tokyo.
Yukawa Ryuwei glanced at Eriko from the corner of his eyes and nodded arrogantly as a form of greeting. Eriko and Sei Itō both frowned, but they didn't say anything in order not to spoil the atmosphere.
Matsuo Taisha acted as if he didn't see anything and pointed at the two shamans sitting on the right side of Sasakawa Ryuwei. They looked very similar, but they were of different ages. "These two are Miko Takayama and Miko Takayama from Hyogo Prefecture."
"Nice to meet you." Eriko and Sei Itō bowed politely.
"Nice to meet you." Miko Takayama and her daughter bowed back. Sei Itō could tell from Miko Takayama and her daughter's behavior that they weren't confident in themselves. Or rather, they were not confident in their family's power.
"According to the philosophy of our shrine, there is no coincidence in this world, only inevitability. Therefore, the fact that all of you are able to gather at Matsuo Grand Shrine today must be because of the God of Wine's blessing. Therefore, I hope that all of you can cooperate sincerely in the next few days and do your best to complete the defense of Xijing District, "Sei Itō said as he raised the white porcelain wine cup in front of him." Everyone, please. "
"Please!" No matter what, Sei Itō's group of five picked up the wine cups in front of them. After gesturing to Matsuo Bro, he tilted his head back and drank it. After that, the guests who drank the opening wine were led by the eloquent Matsuo Society's leader. They chatted as they ate. However, most of the time, Matsuo Yakuza's topics revolved around Yukawa Ryuwei. Only occasionally would he talk about Eriko and the other shamans. From this, one could see Matsuo Kaisha's attitude towards everyone.
"Mom, I can't take it anymore," Yamashita Yuko whispered to Yamashita Ling with a red face during the meal.
"Bear with it a little longer, it will be over soon," Yamashita Ling looked at her daughter with a pained expression as she whispered back.
"Since the child can't take it anymore, let her go back to her room first." Because she didn't have a good impression of Yukawa Ryuwei, Eriko's conversation had always been with Yamashita Ling and her daughter. Therefore, she could easily hear their conversation clearly.
"But …" Yamashita Ling looked carefully at Matsuo Yakuza who was happily chatting with Yukawa Ryuwei and hesitated.
"It's okay. I don't think Matsuo Society's leader will mind such a small matter, "Eriko comforted her with a smile.
"Then, okay." Yamashita Ling really cared about her daughter. After a moment of silence, she agreed. She turned her head and stroked Yamashita Yuko's cheek as she whispered, "Go back to your room first. I'll be back soon. "
"Okay," Yamashita Yuko nodded in a daze and tried to get up from the ground with both hands. But under the influence of alcohol, she couldn't muster any strength and could only sit down again helplessly.
"Ah Cheng, bring Yuko back to her room," Eriko said to Sei Itō after seeing Yamashita Yuko's condition.
"Okay," Sei Itō replied and walked to Yamashita Yuko's side. He reached out and grabbed her arm to help her up. But Yamashita Yuko's body couldn't muster any strength. She could only lean on Sei Itō's chest with a red face as he helped her out of the room.
"What are they doing?" Matsuo Yakuza finally noticed the situation between Sei Itō and Yamashita Yuko and asked with some confusion.
"My daughter can't handle alcohol and is already drunk. So I asked Miko Ito's son to bring my daughter back to her room." Yamashita Ling said before Eriko could speak. She was also worried that Matsuo Yakuza would have a problem with the Ito family. She even said that it was Eriko who asked Sei Itō to bring her daughter back to her room that she asked Sei Itō to bring her daughter back to her room.
"Oh." Matsuo Yakuza nodded and continued to talk with Yukawa Ryuwei. Yukawa Ryuwei's eyes flashed as he looked at Sei Itō and Yamashita Yuko with a hint of dissatisfaction on his face. It was obvious that he had a problem with Sei Itō and Yamashita Yuko. His attitude towards Eriko and Yamashita Ling was also bad. Since Sei Itō and Yamashita Yuko left the room, Yukawa Ryuwei didn't give Sei Itō and Yamashita Yuko any face.
The perceptive Eriko immediately noticed the change in Yukawa Ryuwei. She frowned and looked at him with disgust before ignoring him. However, in her mind, she warned Yukawa Ryuwei not to be courteous to this person and to be wary of him.
On the other side, Yuko Yamashita was supported by Seiji Ito. They staggered back to the residence where Yuko Yamashita and Yuko Yamashita lived. Seiji Ito bent over and put Yuko Yamashita aside and let him lean against the wall.
"Thank you." Yamashita Yuko's face was still red. She didn't know if it was because of the alcohol or the close contact with Sei Itō.
"It's nothing." Sei Itō straightened up and waved his hand at Yamashita Yuko who was leaning against the wall. He smiled and said, "You saved me the trouble of finding excuses."
"Oh." Yamashita Yuko blinked her eyes in confusion and fell silent.
"You rest. I'll go out for a walk." Sei Itō didn't want to stay any longer and cause any misunderstandings. Then, without waiting for Yamashita Yuko to say anything, he immediately turned and walked out of the room. He looked around and then walked towards the backyard not far away.
"Phew, comfortable." In the bathroom in the backyard, Sei Itō shook his body comfortably. He put away the tools he used to drain the water and walked back to the bedroom in the side yard.
"Let go of me." Just as Sei Itō walked past Yamashita Yuko and her son's room, Yamashita Yuko's weak voice suddenly sounded. From her voice and tone, it was obvious that she was begging and scared. She must have encountered something that made her helpless. Sei Itō didn't waste any time and quickly walked to Yamashita Yuko's room. He opened the door and walked in.
Then, he saw the Onmyoji named Yuchuan Ryu Wei lying on top of Gong Zi's body. He buried his head in Gong Zi's robe, which covered Gong Zi's shoulders and waist, and licked Gong Zi's collarbones.
Yukawa Ryuwei was startled by the sudden sound of the door opening. He immediately stopped what he was doing and turned around. He looked at the person who interrupted him with a ferocious look in his eyes. When he saw that it was Sei Itō, he let go of Yamashita Yuko with a ferocious smile. He stood up and said, "So it's you, little bastard. I wanted to deal with you after I took down your mother. But since you're here, don't blame me for being rude."
"Looks like you really want to die." Hearing that, Sei Itō's eyes flashed fiercely. He looked at Yukawa Ryuwei and said calmly.
"Ha, I'd like to see how you're going to kill me." Yukawa Ryuwei looked at Sei Itō with disdain and said, "You're just a kid from a family that relies on women. You're so useless. You don't even have any power. I really don't know what your mother was thinking. Why would she bring you to the capital to attend the court meeting? Is she afraid that people don't know that your family is weak?"
Sei Itō was amused by Yukawa Ryuwei's ignorance. But when he thought that Yukawa Ryuwei was about to die in his hands, he didn't want to explain. He just asked, "Are you ready? If you are, I'll send you to Santu River. "
"Ha? Come on then. I'll teach you what a real Onmyoji is. "Yukawa Ryuwei reached into his sleeve and took out a stack of paper talismans.
"Idiot." Sei Itō cursed in disdain. He exerted force on his feet and disappeared from Yukawa Ryuwei's sight. When Yukawa Ryuwei's pupils contracted, Sei Itō suddenly appeared in front of Yukawa Ryuwei and grabbed his wrist. "Crack!" Yukawa Ryuwei's wrist was twisted. The paper talisman in his hand fell from his open palm. Then, to prevent Yukawa Ryuwei from making any noise due to the pain, Sei Itō punched Yukawa Ryuwei's throat.
"Ugh …" Yukawa Ryuwei's eyes widened. He looked at Sei Itō in fear. His left hand that was still intact tried to grab at Sei Itō's throat as he screamed in pain. After a while, Yukawa Ryuwei's windpipe was blocked by a broken bone. He suffocated in pain.
"Well, you killed him?" Yukawa Ryuwei's left hand slapped the ground weakly. Yukawa Ryuwei had put on her clothes again. She clasped her hands in front of her chest and grabbed the collar of her robe.
"Yes." Sei Itō admitted casually.
"What should we do?" Yukawa Ryuwei looked at Sei Itō expectantly and asked softly. Obviously, unconsciously, Yamashita Yuko regarded herself as Ito Sei's accomplice. Otherwise, she wouldn't have asked such a question, which was obviously a question of companionship.
Sei Itō knew what she meant. He smiled and comforted Yukawa Ryuwei, "Just don't tell anyone about what happened just now. You don't have to worry about anything else. I will take care of it."
