Protagonist:

Zang Ye

"Hmph~"

"You just said you hate Inuyasha. Do you intend to use me to kill Inuyasha!?"

Having his intent exposed by Sesshomaru, Naraku spoke without any concealment of his purpose, directly admitting it.

"That's right!"

Just two short words stimulated Jaken's brain, making Jaken shout in anger.

"You bastard, you actually dare to be so rude!"

Behind Jaken, Sesshomaru spoke coldly.

"Interesting…"

"I'll take your arm."

Jaken was greatly shocked, "Young Master Sesshomaru…"

This Naraku clearly had impure motives; Jaken could not understand why Sesshomaru would agree to such a thing.

"There is one more thing."

"That Half-Demon by Inuyasha's side, Zang Ye, will be dealt with by her."

"Flame Princess."

As Naraku's words fell, an extremely beautiful wavy-haired beauty appeared beside them.

Flame-like red lips, a seductive and alluring figure, a Samurai hung at her waist.

"I've long heard that Young Master Sesshomaru is a very powerful Yokai; I didn't expect he would also grow to be this handsome."

"It really makes my heart flutter."

Flame Princess observed Sesshomaru, a strange light flashing in her eyes.

Jaken loudly reprimanded, "You rude woman, you actually dare to joke about Young Master Sesshomaru!"

Sesshomaru merely glanced once, a face full of indifference, without any expression change.

"Flame Princess, don't be presumptuous."

"Young Master Sesshomaru, this is Flame Princess. Your fight with Inuyasha, we will not let others interfere."

"Please feel free to fight Inuyasha to your heart's content."

Naraku reprimanded once, introduced the female Yokai before them, and explained her role.

"I, Sesshomaru, dislike others interfering in my matters; if you don't want to die, do your job well." Sesshomaru coldly said a few sentences.

Flame Princess's face turned ugly, "Damn it…"

Seeing Sesshomaru agreed, Naraku breathed a sigh of relief.

Sesshomaru looked at Naraku, "State your name!"

"I am called… Naraku."

"Naraku, I will remember it."

………………………Divider………………

On the other side, inside a wealthy household.

Kagome enjoyed the delicious food, her mood very good, "Wonderful, finally no more sleeping rough. Able to eat a full meal, and also sleep properly under a roof."

"It really is wonderful."

Inuyasha at the side had a somewhat unsightly expression, speaking in a lukewarm manner, "Always making you eat in the wind and sleep in the dew, truly sorry about that."

"Inuyasha, why have you been acting so petty lately." Kagome was a bit speechless; this was just a casual remark, yet Inuyasha was acting petty.

"Is it because Miroku found the House for us, making you unhappy!?" Shippo put down the food in his hand, turned his head and said.

Inuyasha fell silent for a moment, his face turning even darker.

"A soft and fluffy bed is very comfortable, right!"

"Right."

Shippo, Kagome teased with a laugh.

Provoking Inuyasha to click his tongue.

At this time, Outdoors, Mage Miroku brought the owner of this House, walking around, pasting Demon-Repelling Talismans on pillars and doors.

"This will do."

"In this way, the Ominous Cloud swirling above this mansion will completely disappear."

"Thank you so much, Mage."

"Just now when Mage suddenly said there was an Ominous Cloud above our house, I really didn't know what to do."

"Now with you performing the exorcism, I can rest easy."

The mansion's owner was an elderly old man; seeing Mage Miroku's professional work style, he expressed heartfelt gratitude.

"This is also the duty of a Mage." Miroku said with a smile.

Afterwards the mansion's owner left, Mage Miroku returned to the Room where Kagome and the others were eating.

Seeing Miroku return, Kagome warmly greeted him, "Exorcising evil spirits was hard work."

"Alright, let's all rest well then."

Miroku smiled in response.

Inuyasha glanced at Miroku. "Hey, Miroku."

"There's one thing I just can't figure out no matter what."

"What?" Miroku replied with a doubtful look.

Inuyasha walked over, stared at Miroku, and said, "Every time we look for a place to stay, you always pick the most imposing mansion in the area, claiming ominous clouds are swirling above it."

"What's that about?"

Miroku suddenly understood — Inuyasha was curious about this.

"Ah..."

"You're only asking now? Sometimes lying is a necessary expedient."

Inuyasha's mouth curled slightly. "Lying..."

Shippo also had a face full of disbelief. "So the ominous clouds were a lie."

Only Kagome drank her tea, looking like she'd known all along. "I vaguely sensed it."

Inuyasha clenched his fist, looking at Miroku. "You bastard... you're really too rotten."

"Everyone's finished eating, huh."

At this moment, Zang Ye's voice rang out at the doorway.

"Zang Ye, you bastard, didn't you go off to do something bad too!?"

"Every time, after eating, you always make an excuse to go to the toilet, and you're gone for ages before coming back." Inuyasha eyed Zang Ye with some suspicion.

Zang Ye grinned, saying foolishly, "I really have a bit of inconvenience. Recently, maybe from lack of exercise, I've got a bit of diarrhea."

Shippo's eyes went wide. "Is Zang Ye unwell?"

Miroku was also stunned, as if discovering a new continent. "Even you, a half-demon, get diarrhea."

Black lines rose on Kagome's forehead. She didn't believe a word of Zang Ye's. "Such a lame excuse, and people actually believe it."

Zang Ye scratched his head, laughing foolishly, walked to the side, and sat down.

Inuyasha wore a suspicious expression, staring fixedly at Zang Ye, wanting to see through him.

Actually, Zang Ye hadn't done anything special.

He just took advantage of the rest time after eating to familiarize himself with this mansion.

Suddenly, the house suddenly shook, and everyone was greatly startled.

"This... is it an earthquake?" Kagome looked puzzled.

"Seems a big guy showed up..." Inuyasha looked gravely outside.

"It's an extraordinary guy." Zang Ye's eyes narrowed. This familiar scent — it was Sesshomaru's.

And another familiar bastard's scent — Naraku's scent.

Didn't expect these two bastards to team up. Zang Ye rested his chin on his hand, feeling like something was off again, but unable to put his finger on what.

"Let's run quick." Miroku suggested.

"Hey, you bastard... isn't that dining and dashing?"

"Because the opponent's too big, we can't beat them."

"Useless. Too reckless. That's suicide."

"You bastard..."

Kagome suddenly raised her head and spoke. "Shikon Jewel Shard presence..."

"And it's approaching at an astonishing speed..."

Inuyasha was overjoyed. "A Shikon Jewel actually delivered itself to our door — couldn't ask for more."

Hearing it was the Shikon Jewel, Miroku likewise changed his tune. "Since it's a Shikon Jewel Shard, looks like we'll have to wing it a bit."

"The other party is headed straight here. You guys go take a look."

"Let me verify the doubt in Zang Ye's heart."
