Chapter 2617: Abe no Seimei's Rage and Killing Intent

In a courtyard.

The aged Nurarihyon Hyapua was playing a game of chess with Nurarihyon Rikuo.

"Grandpa!"

Nurarihyon Rikuo hesitated for a moment, but still could not hold back the doubt in his heart, and asked, "You called me over—whatever for? If there's nothing going on... I still have to go back and finish my homework."

"Don't rush!"

Nurarihyon Hyapua gave a wry smile; his eyes were somewhat deep, "Tonight... it might be quite lively."

Nurarihyon Rikuo was stunned for a moment.

Before he could understand what those words actually meant, he saw blazing flames erupt with a roar from outside the courtyard, sweeping in.

Accompanying the rolling waves of heat came a calm voice, "Indeed so!"

After a brief silence, this seemingly unremarkable courtyard became: murderous.

One cold voice after another suddenly rang out.

"... Head Chief!"

"Damn it... who are you? Why have you come to the territory of the Nurarihyon Group!"

"This disgusting aura... it's an onmyoji! It must be them."

Accompanied by crisp rustling sounds, soon the surrounding walls were lined with solemn-faced experts of the Nurarihyon Group.

Within the flames conjured by the fire spirit, Asakura Yeowang revealed his form. He cast a casual glance at the scene around him and said, "The youkai of your Nurarihyon organization... their strength is still quite decent."

Nurarihyon Hyapua reached out to soothe his uneasy grandson, then revealed a brilliant smile, his words carrying pride, "Naturally! Without these... top-class youkai.

How would I, my son, and even my grandson's future... dare to call ourselves the Lord of a Hundred Demons?"

The moment these words came out, the atmosphere on the scene instantly froze.

Those... great youkai looked at each other.

A blank look appeared on every face, because they suddenly realized that it seemed... Nurarihyon Hyapua and the other party knew each other. "Everyone, disperse!"

Nurarihyon Hyapua waved his hand with a smile, "The one who's come this time is an old friend of mine!"

After a brief hesitation, these great youkai bowed slightly, then scattered in all directions.

Asakura Yeowang cast his gaze upon Nurarihyon Rikuo's body, narrowing his eyes slightly.

"... As expected! The youkai bloodline has already been diluted to one-fourth.

But in terms of the inheritance of power, it is actually this complete."

After a slight pause, Asakura Yeowang spoke leisurely, "... Although I've seen quite a few half-human, half-youkai! But someone as special as you, this really is my first time seeing."

"You've taken an interest in my grandson?"

Nurarihyon Hyapua raised his brows.

"Indeed! After all, your grandson's condition is so peculiar."

Asakura Yeowang's emotions once again returned to calm.

Even Nurarihyon Hyapua could not see through what Asakura Yeowang was actually thinking at this moment.

However, Nurarihyon Hyapua didn't care about that either... the focus right now simply wasn't on this! "Tonight's moon! It's very round."

Nurarihyon Hyapua gazed at the moon gradually rising in the distance, a touch of gravity entering his words.

"Indeed!"

Asakura Yeowang nodded.

In that instant, demonic aura boiled over.

The sky instantly became: pitch black.

Wails and howls rose on all sides.

The Nurarihyon Group youkai who had just let down their guard tensed up once more, looks of shock and disbelief appearing on their faces.

"... What's going on?"

"This suffocating pressure... has someone come to kill their way to our door?"

"... It's not an onmyoji! This feeling... it's a youkai... Could it be a rival for the title of Lord of a Hundred Demons!"

Nurarihyon Rikuo's Yaguan chattered. He raised his head and stared blankly at this scene, gulped down a mouthful of saliva with a gurgle, and only then shifted his gaze to his grandfather.
