Chapter 786 A critical moment
Yae Shrine, in front of the main hall.
The sound of gongs and drums filled the entire shrine.
A large number of villagers have gathered here, and the number of people is densely packed. The number of people is larger than at any previous sacrifice.
After all, the sacrifice this time was extraordinary. It was not a girl randomly selected from an ordinary family in the village, but a descendant of the Yae family with the blood of a miko.
For such a special sacrifice, even without the order of the Eightfold God, the villagers would not miss this good show.
Maybe after presenting the children of the Yae family this time, the Fox God will give Yae Village permanent rain when he is happy?
The villagers thought happily that no one cared about the girl kneeling on the sacrificial ground.
Just like all the sacrifices in the past, it is just a tool to exchange rainwater with the Fox God.
Yae Rin's hands were tied behind her back, and she was kneeling on the ground, just like a prisoner before execution, except that her eyes were not covered with a black cloth.
Lord Yae held the sword and stood not far behind Yae Rin. Next to him was Yae Sakura who was tied up.
Yae Sakura's eyes were fixed on her sister's back, losing their highlights, but she would occasionally cast her gaze towards the door of the shrine.
It's like...expecting something.
Lord Yae originally wanted Yae Sakura to perform this sacrifice, but looking at her current state, even if he forced her to wield the sword, it would be a waste of time.
So Lord Yae God still went into battle in person, holding the clean long knife and slowly walking in the direction of Yae Rin.
"Haha...are we about to start?"
The old woman stood together with her family members, looking at the Eightfold Divine Master who was approaching the sacrifice, her muddy old eyes full of expectation.
"..."
The man in black robe was not focusing on the sacrifice at this time, but was scanning the surrounding crowd, the excitement and cruelty in his eyes almost overflowing.
"time up."
When Lord Yae said these words, others had already happened to come behind Yae Rin. The latter felt something. Even though he was mentally prepared, his body still couldn't stop shaking.
The sound of gongs and drums in the ears became louder, which meant that the sacrifice process had reached its climax.
The Eightfold God Lord raised the long sword in his hand and brought it down to the bottom.
Ding---!
There was a crisp sound.
Half of the blade flew into the air, then fell, just in front of the old woman, scaring her so much that she fell to the ground.
Lord Yae's usually calm expression changed imperceptibly, and then he turned his gaze to the door of the shrine.
At some unknown time, two people were standing there, one behind the other.
A man with pink hair reaching his shoulders and pink-purple eyes full of coldness and murderous intent.
The other's white hair was swaying, but his blood-red pupils only contained indifference.
"Li, Master Li...!"
The sudden change made many villagers feel shocked, and then they felt uneasy, especially the old woman. Her eyes twitched when she got up from the ground, and she did not dare to raise her head to look at Yaeli.
"elder brother……"
Different from others, the light in Yae Sakura's eyes became brighter and brighter, eventually filling her entire eyes. Even Yae Rin, who was still kneeling on the ground, had two lines of tears flowing out of the corners of her eyes unconsciously, and was forced to kneel down. His body could no longer hold up and fell directly to the ground that was hot under the sun.
The man in black robe was also a little surprised by this, but other than that, his mood swings were gone. Instead, he took out a crystal that emitted dazzling purple light from the black robe.
Compared with before, the crystal this time is no longer incomplete, but has become complete.
Roar……
In a certain space beneath the shrine, a pair of huge beast eyes suddenly opened.
Lord Yae's eyes have been staring at Yae Li and the strange white-haired girl beside him.
How did he come back in such a short time?
Yaeli on the opposite side had begun to walk slowly, and the white-haired girl beside him followed closely behind, as if he was afraid that he would run away.
The villagers moved out of the way, allowing Yae Li to walk in front of the Yae God without any hindrance.
During this period, Yaeli also passed by the old woman and glanced at her with murderous intent in his eyes.
The old woman wanted to run, but was grabbed by the arm by the man in black robe who came to her at some point.
"Don't run, old woman, hasn't the sacrifice started yet?"
"..."
The old woman cursed countless curse words in her heart and winked at her family members, but for some reason they seemed invisible and did not react.
No one noticed that except for the members of the Yae family, the white-haired girl and the men in black robes, all the other villagers had subtle purple stripes spreading around the edges of their eyes, and even their skin was slowly turning gray.
"You shouldn't have come back."
Lord Yae raised his hand to Yaeli to cut off the knife, but the moment he raised it, it was knocked off and fell to the ground with a crisp collision sound.
The white-haired girl behind Yae Ri stared at Lord Yae's head, as if to say, if you dare to make any dangerous moves again, your head might be knocked off next time.
Yae Rin did not answer Yae God Lord's question, and was not even in the mood to talk to him. Instead, she walked up to him and picked up Yae Rin who fell to the ground.
The white-haired girl behind him wanted to take it, but Yaeli ignored her completely.
Passing by Lord Yae, Yaeli walked towards Yae Sakura. He just raised his hand and the rope binding the opponent's body fell to the ground.
"elder brother……"
Yae Sakura seemed to be able to say only these two words at this time.
Only then did a smile appear on Yae Ri's cold face. If it weren't for Yae Rin's hand that needed to be held, he would have thought of touching the other person's cheek.
This trip...but he almost lost his most precious thing.
"Come on, let's leave and go to the West."
"Ok!"
Several people returned. From the beginning to the end, they did not pay attention to the people around them who paid attention to them, and no one dared to make any small moves under Yae Li's killing intent.
...Oh no, except for one person.
"Master Li, don't leave in such a hurry! It would be a pity if you miss the next great show!" The man in black robe took off the hood on his head, revealing a face full of holes. He faced Yaeli showed an ugly smile.
Yazhongli paused, looked at him with a faint look, and said indifferently: "If you want revenge, please feel free to do so, but don't mess with me, and..."
Yae Li looked at Yae Divine Lord.
"Keep him alive."
The moment Lord Yae swung his sword at Yae Rin at the sacrificial ground, Yae Rin was already extremely disappointed with him.
"Haha... Master Li, this is not okay. After all, you know that the target of my revenge... is everyone in this village!"
