Protagonist:

Zang Ye

"Haha..."

"The moment you called out to her, her mind fell into chaos, allowing Kikyo's soul to leave her body." Seeing this scene, Gui Po Li Tao explained with delight.

Finally, the last step was complete.

"Kagome's soul..."

"Has gone into Kikyo's body..." Seeing this, Inuyasha's face was full of shock.

"Kikyo... has been revived..."

Zang Ye glanced at Kagome, thinking to himself, (Though it's unfair to Kagome, her soul is indeed needed.)

Shippo hurriedly ran to Kagome's face, his face full of worry, "Kagome..."

"Pull yourself together, Kagome..."

Seeing Shippo's panicked look, Gui Po Li Tao curled her mouth into a cold smile, "That girl has already become an empty shell without a soul."

"I'll take her later to season and eat her."

Hearing this, Kaede's face changed drastically, and she glanced at Zang Ye.

Zang Ye shook his head, stepped forward, extended his right hand, and the Lightning Strike Blade appeared in his hand, "Gui Po Li Tao, your mission is over!"

"Activate Swiftness!"

"Activate Right Arm Strengthening!"

"Activate Lightning Strike!"

Zang Ye's figure left phantom after phantom on the ground, and the Lightning Strike Blade in his hand flashed with blue light.

"Ah..."

"Kikyo... stop him!"

Seeing Zang Ye attacking at lightning speed, Gui Po Li Tao shouted in horror.

However, Kikyo gave no reaction, only looking at her with cold eyes.

"Bastard..."

"I am your master, your reborn parents..."

Before Gui Po Li Tao's roaring words were finished, Zang Ye appeared before her, and the Lightning Strike Blade struck her chest.

"Ah..."

Under the rampage of lightning, Gui Po Li Tao let out a scream.

Finally, destroyed under the thunder, she dissipated.

"Kikyo..."

Until her death, Gui Po Li Tao never understood why the Kikyo she had worked so hard to revive did not obey her.

Zang Ye flicked the Lightning Strike Blade in his hand and said coldly, "Although Kikyo's revival needed you."

"But hurting our Kagome doesn't mean Grandpa Zang Ye can just pretend not to see!"

Kaede looked at this scene in shock, "Zang Ye..."

She found it strange that Zang Ye had become so strong.

Inuyasha glanced at Zang Ye, said nothing, and only had Kikyo before his eyes.

"Inuyasha..."

"You should have been sealed by me! It's nothing, you can still wander around..."

Seeing Inuyasha, Kikyo's face turned gloomy.

Seeing the resentment emanating from Kikyo, Inuyasha couldn't help but be shocked in his heart, "It... it's true..."

"But... Elder Sister Kaede said that we fifty years ago were very likely a misunderstanding, plotted against by someone..."

"Clearly I didn't..."

Kikyo shouted angrily, "You didn't..."

"You didn't betray me...!?"

Inuyasha was slightly stunned and replied, "Yes..."

Kikyo coldly smiled and said, "To get the Shikon Jewel, you never gave up the thought of snatching it, and even now you're still weaving such lies..."

Kikyo's few words left Inuyasha speechless.

"Sister Kikyo..."

"Fifty years ago, there must have been a misunderstanding..." Kaede spoke.

"Misunderstanding...?"

"Who are you!?"

Kikyo glanced at Kaede, and her resentment flared up.

"I am your younger sister, little Kaede."

"Now... fifty years have already passed."

"Zang Ye... say out the prophecy you predicted..." Kaede turned her head and said to Zang Ye.

Kikyo followed Kaede's gaze and looked, "Half-Demon..."

"Your body is filled with the light of the Shikon Jewel."

Zang Ye sheathed the Lightning Strike Blade; the Kikyo before him was exceedingly beautiful, but Zang Ye held not a shred of frivolous intent.

"Kikyo…"

"I'll tell you some things, some events I foresaw."

Hearing this, Kikyo wore a face full of disbelief. "A Half-Demon — they just love using lies to deceive. You think I'd believe you?"

Seeing Kikyo's resentment growing stronger, Zang Ye had no choice but to cut straight to the point.

"Fifty Years ago, you saved a man named Onigumo — do you have any impression!?"

Kikyo froze slightly. "Fifty Years ago, Onigumo…"

"How do you know that…"

Kikyo remembered — no one had ever mentioned this matter; only she and Kaede knew.

Zang Ye revealed a faint smile, pointing at his own head. "Seen in foresight."

Inuyasha froze slightly. "Onigumo… who is that?"

Zang Ye did not answer Inuyasha, continuing, "At that time, Onigumo's body had been severely burned by fire; he was as good as dead. But under your devoted care, his life was preserved."

"Your gentleness was the last sanctuary in Onigumo's heart."

"He liked you, wanted to possess you, yet because he himself was a cripple, he hated his own powerlessness, giving rise to powerful resentment that attracted countless Yokai to gather. In the end, that guy fused together with tens of thousands of Yokai into a single entity, becoming a new life, called Naraku."

"So afterward you went looking for Onigumo, didn't see him, thought he'd left on his own, and then the matter ended there."

Kikyo fell silent, because every detail of these events was known most clearly only to her, and what Zang Ye said was also the truth.

"Continue speaking…"

Kikyo spoke up.

Seeing Kikyo's resentment show signs of calming, Zang Ye breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and added, "On the day you stepped down as Miko, you decided to live a normal life together with Inuyasha, at that promised place. But you went there and were attacked — and the one who attacked you was not Inuyasha, but Naraku disguised as Inuyasha."

"Inuyasha went there too; he didn't see you, but saw Naraku disguised as you, and was attacked by him. Inuyasha thought it was you deceiving him, so he planned to snatch the Shikon Jewel and leave Here."

"But in the end, he was sealed by you."

"Naraku exploited the time difference, attacking each of you separately, turning you against one another."

"It was only because that Onigumo's jealous heart developed into a scheme orchestrated by Naraku. At the time, the situation was urgent; you simply had no time to think about the strangeness of this event."

"The above is everything I know, all said out."

"As for what the truth of the matter really is, you two think it over carefully."

Zang Ye spread his hands, then addressed Kaede. "Kaede, shall we give them some space!?"

Kaede nodded, and left with Zang Ye to a farther distance.

Shippo reached out and called, "Zang Ye, Kaede, where are you two going!?"

"Kagome, Kagome she…"

Kaede looked at Zang Ye, somewhat worried. "Zang Ye, will Kagome be alright…"

Zang Ye nodded, shouting toward Shippo in the distance, "Shippo, take good care of Kagome…"

"She'll be fine."

Hearing this, Shippo's face brightened with joy. "That's great."

At This Time, Kikyo looked at Inuyasha and her resentment was no longer that great.

"Kikyo…"

"Is what Zang Ye just said true?"
