Chapter 529

"Sister Pupu, move over a bit."

"Why should I? This was my seat to begin with!"

Before long, Hinata and Sakura—oh no, Wang Shengdi and Yang Enyou—started arguing over who would get to sit in Xu Feng's lap.

Sigh, there's no helping it; he, Master Xu, is just that popular.

As the new episode began, the title, "Kikyo Resurrected, Naraku's True Face Revealed," felt like it had already spoiled half the episode's plot.

Xu Feng, however, was feeling a bit conflicted.

Is it really okay to show this kind of plot to a group of kids whose average age isn't even 12 yet?

Forget it; that's their parents' problem to worry about, not his.

At the start of the fifth episode, the demon woman steals Kikyo's remains and kidnaps Kagome in order to seize the Shikon Jewel.

She intends to use the clay body and Kagome's soul to resurrect Kikyo.

Although Inuyasha's interference results in only a small portion of Kagome's soul being extracted,

Kikyo is still successfully resurrected.

"Inuyasha! I was so naive! Even if only for a fleeting moment, I actually had the thought of wanting to be with you!"

After her resurrection, Kikyo immediately draws her bow and notches an arrow. Her once-sacred aura has been replaced by endless resentment, and the Sacred Arrow on the bowstring is locked directly onto Inuyasha.

At this moment, the scene briefly shifts into Kikyo's flashback.

On that day 50 years ago, when Kikyo was preparing to keep her appointment to use the Shikon Jewel to turn Inuyasha into a human so they could spend their lives together,

Inuyasha suddenly appeared, snatched the Shikon Jewel, and sneered that his previous promise to Kikyo was nothing but an act.

He never intended to become human; he only wanted to steal the Shikon Jewel from Kikyo.

With it, he could become a true demon.

The scene cuts back, and the resurrected Kikyo shouts at Inuyasha in grief and indignation: "Why, why did you betray me? Inuyasha!!" Inuyasha, pointed at by the arrow, is also completely bewildered.

I betrayed you?

It should be you who betrayed me!

Back then, he was clearly on his way to the meeting, intending to become human and spend his life with Kikyo, only to be severely wounded by a sudden arrow from her.

The audience, seeing this, couldn't help but be stunned.

What, what is going on?

The two people's memories don't match up.

In the end, Inuyasha still cannot bear to hurt Kikyo.

During the struggle, Kikyo falls off a cliff, and Inuyasha is left completely confused by the situation at hand.

What exactly is going on?

On that day 50 years ago when he was sealed, what really happened?

【It's getting more and more interesting. Something must have happened 50 years ago; there must be a bigger secret behind it.】

【I'm looking forward to the romance plot more. After defeating Sesshomaru, the male and female leads were getting closer, but now the ex-girlfriend is back.】

【To be honest, I can't believe this character is played by Liu Shishi; her eyes don't look dull at all.】

【It's true. Actually, I always thought Gao Yuanyuan would have been more suitable, even if she's a bit older; you don't have to worry about her acting skills.】 "... How is it? My acting is still pretty good, right?"

Seeing the many comments praising her on the playback page, Liu Shishi reveals a hint of smugness and raises an eyebrow at Xu Feng.

Xu Feng lets out a strange chuckle.

How can she have the nerve to say that after this one scene took seven or eight takes to get right?

In the second half of the episode, Naraku, draped in a beast-skin cloak that covers the upper half of his face, makes his official debut.

Surrounded by Inuyasha and his group, Naraku doesn't beat around the bush.

He directly reveals his true identity: a bandit named "Onigumo" who was saved by Kikyo 50 years ago.

Back then, the nearly paralyzed Onigumo developed evil thoughts toward the kind-hearted priestess who was caring for him.

Upon learning that Inuyasha and Kikyo were in love,

in order to make Kikyo his own, he willingly let demons devour his body and fuse with him, ultimately succeeding in driving a wedge between Inuyasha and Kikyo, causing the tragedy of 50 years ago.

Finally, he evolved into the Naraku of today! "Bastard!!!"

Upon learning the truth, Inuyasha is completely consumed by rage and swings his sword at Naraku.

Naraku, having prepared in advance, releases miasma, and under the cover of the thick toxic smoke, he drifts further and further away from the protagonist's group.

By the time Inuyasha swings his sword to blow away the miasma with sword pressure, there is no sign of Naraku left. "Damn it! Damn it! Come out! Fight me!"

Thinking of the tragic end he and Kikyo suffered 50 years ago, all caused by this bastard Naraku, Inuyasha finds it increasingly difficult to suppress the anger in his heart and screams hoarsely.

This episode ends here.

Clicking into the second episode updated this week.

The explosive amount of information in the previous episode has the audience discussing it impatiently: 【I knew there was someone pulling the strings behind the scenes; sorry, Lord Sesshomaru, I suspected you before.】

【So he's just a simp for Kikyo.】

【Is that love? You're just lusting after her body!】

【Nothing wrong with that, I lust after her too.】

【I still think it would have been more suitable to have Gao Yuanyuan play Kikyo, or Li Yitong and Li Qin wouldn't be bad either.】
