Chapter 298: Chinju Forest! Ioroi, who was beaten up by Yae Miko!

Mikoshi Residence!

When Luo Li emerged from here again, two hours had already passed.

"Hiss! Chiyo is really..."

Stretching lazily, Luo Li departed under the respectful gazes of the Mikoshi family's butler and servants.

It had to be said, after being apart for over half a month, the passion Chiyo erupted with was simply hard to handle.

Fortunately, Luo Li could still hold his own.

As a god, it was just a minor expenditure of physical strength; it wasn't enough to trouble him.

Even the Raiden sisters couldn't compare to him, let alone Chiyo.

As for Arataki Itto, who was still training in the arena, he was likely still getting beaten by the Maguu Kenki.

With nothing to do, he leisurely planned to take a stroll around Mount Yougou.

Compared to the simple Inazuma people of five hundred years ago, the people of today had a deeper sense of awe for gods and didn't dare to come up and disturb him casually.

Even though Luo Li acted casually enough and did not release the divine might of a god.

Mount Yougou! Grand Narukami Shrine!

The reason he came here, besides looking at the current shrine, was to inspect the foundation of the Twelve Divine Generals array located here.

Back then, Luo Li had connected the ley lines deep beneath the mountain, allowing the array to protect the entire Narukami Island and reduce the losses from subsequent Abyssal disasters.

Over the past five hundred years, without any maintenance, it was inevitable that errors might occur.

Although the Traveler and Paimon had repaired the Twelve Divine Generals array some time ago, that was only a superficial patch-up of the problematic parts.

As for the foundation that symbolized the source, no one had ever stepped foot here, let alone inspected it.

At the foot of Mount Yougou, near Chinju Forest.

Luo Li confirmed through the regulation of the array foundation that there were no major problems, and after a simple upgrade and adjustment, he returned to the surface.

By the roadside, some bake-danuki wandering in Chinju Forest saw his figure and curiously cast their gazes upon him.

Luo Li didn't pay too much attention to these bake-danuki; their current leader, Ioroi, should still be here.

But just as he was passing through Chinju Forest, he suddenly heard a violent roar from the woods, accompanied by a heavy tremor that startled a flock of birds.

"Hmm? What happened?"

Luo Li was surprised, paused his steps, and then changed direction toward the place where the anomaly occurred.

A moment later.

He arrived at the center of Chinju Forest, only to see that the originally beautiful scene had now become inexplicably bleak.

In the center, a clear spring had been completely severed in two by an unknown AOE explosion, many glowing plants with blue light had been ravaged, and even the road had been destroyed for a section.

The culprit who caused such a miserable scene was standing upright on a giant rock, looking down at the victim on the other side.

"Little Yae?"

The pink-haired shrine maiden standing on the giant rock was none other than Yae Miko.

Trembling opposite her was a giant tanuki.

Luo Li looked over and discovered that the tanuki was Ioroi, whom he had just been thinking about.

The giant tanuki huddled to one side, being watched by Yae Miko with a cold gaze.

Discovering the sound of a third person, Miko frowned and looked over, discovering it was actually Luo Li.

"Your Highness, why are you here?"

Miko was truly shocked. Why was this person not honestly enjoying his romantic life in the Tenshukaku, but running to Chinju Forest instead?

This doubt was soon answered.

"Checking if there's any problem with the array I laid down back then. What about you? What are you doing? Bullying Ioroi?"

Although he and Ioroi weren't familiar, they had met a few times, and they could barely be considered acquaintances.

Seeing Luo Li, Ioroi hurriedly called out to him for help.

"Your Highness, hurry and take this girl away! We just didn't watch the juniors and went to the shrine to play around a bit. Why did you have to come and beat us up?"

Yae Miko looked at Ioroi with cold eyes: "Half of the shrine's pilgrims left because of your bake-danuki. How should this loss be calculated?" **CHAPTER 533**

Ioroi: "..."

When it came to this, it simply played dead.

Luo Li couldn't help but laugh; so that was the reason.

"Alright, Little Yae, this matter doesn't have much to do with Ioroi. Let it go."

Yae Miko was clearly a bit resentful and didn't want to just let it go.

But facing Luo Li's attempt to smooth things over, she had no choice but to nod reluctantly.

Seeing this, Ioroi breathed a sigh of relief, but before it could exhale, it heard Miko's cold voice ring out again.

"Watch your bake-danuki. If there is a next time, I will personally send them into the ley line cycle."

"..."

That's a bit much, isn't it?

Ioroi's heart, which hadn't yet settled, was lifted again, and it felt somewhat aggrieved.

I'm at least a friend of Kitsune Saiguu; why are you so fierce to a friend of the Lady Mistress?!

The great tanuki was very sad; the key was that it couldn't even beat this junior.

Luo Li shook his head gently and beckoned Yae Miko to come down.

There was no helping it; in terms of talent and bloodline, Ioroi really couldn't compare to Miko.

After all, it couldn't even beat Mitsuyo, Asase Hibiki, or the Mamori Harunosuke of that time.

The three members of the Yougou Tengu were each existences that surpassed the peak of humanity.

Finally giving Ioroi a warning look, Miko jumped lightly from the giant rock and came to Luo Li's side.

"Let's go, accompany me for a walk at the Grand Narukami Shrine."

Not knowing what he wanted to do, Miko had no objections.

He couldn't be looking for trouble with her; the matter of the traitor from before had passed so long ago.

Moreover, during the King's Game back then, she had sacrificed quite a lot.

Things like the 'pulling silk' and such, she and Kitsune Saiguu had both been enjoyed by him.

While the big and small fox spirits acted as wingmen, they themselves were dragged into it.

Without using their abilities, the two walked step by step along the mountain path of the Grand Narukami Shrine toward the top of Mount Yougou.

The scenery by the roadside hadn't changed after a thousand years; falling cherry blossoms still covered the road, feeling soft and sticky underfoot.

Yae Miko was somewhat silent, occasionally glancing at Luo Li's back.

"What, is there a problem with my back?"

"No, I'm just a bit curious."

"Curious?"

"Why does Your Highness keep the young lady of the Kamisato family by your side?"

Yae Miko was completely baffled by this; Kamisato Ayaka didn't have any overlap with him, and they had only met a few times.

If one were to say that Luo Li had developed a sexual interest in her after only a few meetings, that would be underestimating a god's self-control.

The reason he was so romantic now was purely because he himself wasn't exercising any control. **CHAPTER 534**
