Chapter 95

"Wow, Miko, this is so much fun."

Hakuichikawa Hana's face beamed with excitement as she vanished from the shrine and reappeared moments later.

Yotsuya Miko rubbed her temples: "Taixuan, you opened a teleportation channel here for Hana—she'll probably play for a long time. What if someone finds out?"

"No problem," Zhang Taixuan said dismissively. "Hana is now a Land Immortal-level cultivator. Though she's still weak in combat, it's not easy for anyone to hurt her."

"Am I really that weak in combat?" Hakuichikawa Hana suddenly leaned in, her breath sweet as orchids.

Yotsuya Miko nodded: "Let's put it this way—ten of you couldn't beat a single seasoned cultivator of the same realm."

"That bad?" Hakuichikawa Hana gasped, her eyes darting. "But I've got the Supreme Deity! Whoever bullies me, I'll go to the Supreme Deity."

Yotsuya Miko: "Are you a child, calling someone 'Lord' like that?"

"Isn't it fine to call a deity 'Lord' after becoming a shrine maiden?" Hakuichikawa Hana giggled. "By the way, Miko, now that there's a teleportation channel, you can visit me anytime. You haven't taken me shopping in ages!"

"Shopping?" Yotsuya Miko groaned.

She was a highly career-driven person—recently, she was either hunting evil spirits or tracking them down.

Giving up her points to accompany Hakuichikawa Hana made her feel a pang of loss.

But unable to withstand Hana's pitiful gaze, she finally sighed and nodded: "Fine, I'll go shopping with you."

"Yay! Let's buy Pippi Daifu! I heard it's delicious!" Hakuichikawa Hana cheered. "Supreme Deity, let's go together?"

"Alright."

He had no aversion to shopping.

"Yay!"

Hakuichikawa Hana beamed, sprinted over, and wrapped her arms around Zhang Taixuan's neck, planting a kiss on him.

Yotsuya Miko cleared her throat: "Hana!"

"What? Didn't you get pretty forward last night too?" Hakuichikawa Hana shrugged—until Miko's gaze turned sharp, then she let go.

The three tidied up and headed straight down the mountain.

As soon as they stepped out of the shrine, Hakuichikawa Hana sighed: "The outside world feels so polluted. The shrine is better—there, I feel so light and free."

"Oh! There's an evil spirit ahead!"

After receiving Zhang Taixuan's spiritual infusion, Hakuichikawa Hana could now perceive the malevolent energies and evil spirits in the world.

"You can see me?"

The evil spirit, hearing Hakuichikawa Hana's words, instantly changed expression and lunged forward.

Before it could reach them, a flash of red light vanished—and the evil spirit screamed and turned to ash.

"What a shame," Yotsuya Miko sighed. "That was over thirty million yen."

Hakuichikawa Hana blinked: "Thirty million yen? Someone actually wants this ugly thing?"

"Of course." Seeing another evil spirit ahead, Miko immediately acted, seized it, and tossed it into the Shangcheng chat group.

Seeing Miko's action, Hakuichikawa Hana could no longer doubt that someone truly wanted ugly evil spirits—she became intensely curious about it.

Along the way, she chattered nonstop.

"This is Pippi Daifu—it really is delicious!" Hakuichikawa Hana beamed, glancing at Miko, who was frantically capturing evil spirits. "Miko is really working hard. But one evil spirit is worth over thirty million yen—I want to catch some too and sell them. Then I'll have tons of pocket money!"

"You can catch them and let Miko sell them," Zhang Taixuan said casually, munching on food.

Hakuichikawa Hana's eyes lit up: "That's true! The Supreme Deity is so smart."

Seeing Miko finish capturing an evil spirit, Hakuichikawa Hana called out: "Miko, I want to catch evil spirits too!"

"Go ahead. I'll sell them for you." Yotsuya Miko took a bite of a Daifu, her eyes widening. "Huh? This is actually good—you really know how to pick snacks, Hana!"
