Chapter 240 Ending
Sojiro Yagyu’s brain was still dripping on the bronze bell. Looking at Yang Liu lying motionless not far away, Professor Kageyama no longer had the heart to resist.

If you are just a novice who knows nothing about the occult, seeing Yang Liu’s behavior, you may feel terrified but not think there is anything unusual because of years of exposure to movies and TV.

But when extraordinary experts like Professor Kageyama saw this scene, they felt that their worldview collapsed.

It is incomprehensible and unacceptable. The more I know, the more outrageous Yang Liu’s behavior seems to me.

Especially after seeing Sojiro Yagyu being killed by a bronze bell thrown by Yangliu, Professor Kageyama had completely lost the will to continue fighting.

After all, he is a research-oriented scholar and is not good at fighting. Even though he had an absolute advantage in strength before, he was stopped by Uga Shoji and Kurama Yuki.

Now that he saw that the situation was hopeless, it was natural for him to think about escaping.

Of course, in Kageyama’s mind, this was a reasonable retreat.

Hearing Sasaki Reiko’s scream, Kageyama had cursed this woman countless times in his heart, but he still threw out a dozen black talismans with trembling hands.

“Go! Go! Go! All of you, come on!”

That was an excellent experimental subject that he had cultivated with the help of the resources of the Kageyama family, but now in order to survive he had to let all of them out.

After throwing out the talisman, Yingshan subconsciously looked back, and then saw a scene that he would never forget:
Yang Liu’s recovered left hand casually picked up half of the hall’s pillar. The nanmu wood that was more than ten meters long and as thick as a person’s waist was as light as a bamboo pole in his hand. With just one sweep, he smashed the three train ghosts into meat paste.

“You must be kidding…” Feeling the power that Yang Liu had just burst out, Yingshan’s face turned green, “Is this the value that a carbon-based creature should have?!”

He formed the seal tremblingly, and the seal that usually took him only an instant to complete took him several seconds.

But when the blue light representing the successful casting of the spell just lit up, the demon had already torn apart the group of shikigami he summoned and rushed within ten steps, with an almost joyful smile on his face covered in demon blood.

“Don’t come over!!!”

The seventy-year-old Professor Kageyama screamed like a little girl and threw his most valuable talisman at Yang Liu.

The big demon, which usually requires a blood sacrifice to awaken, had just condensed half of its body when Yang Liu, who was “passing by”, grabbed the ghost horn on his head and threw him to the ground.

When the hundreds of kilograms of demon body smashed down a nearby pagoda, Yingshan finally collapsed.

He turned around and ran wildly like a frog scalded by boiling water, completely disregarding his image. Even his robes were thrown away by him.

But he still couldn’t avoid Yang Liu’s attack, and a whistling sound of a heavy object breaking through the air came from behind him.

“monster……”

The bronze bell weighing more than ten tons was thrown out by Yang Liu like a cannonball. The moment the shadow enveloped Professor Yingshan, he felt a hot stream flowing out of his crotch.

He could only watch as the Heart Sutra engraved on the bell enlarged in front of his eyes. The Sanskrit words that spoke of the salvation of the dead were now flashing a life-threatening light.

In his last consciousness, Kageyama could even smell the scent of copper rust mixed with blood.

boom! ! !
The huge shock wave blew away a large area of grass, and the bronze bell sank three meters into the ground.

When Reiko Sasaki and others arrived, they only saw half of a twitching calf exposed at the edge of the bell, and the socks with a five-pointed star pattern on the feet were still twitching nervously.

Yang Liu was squatting on the top of the clock, staring at the setting sun in the sky in a daze.

…………

A week later.

The weather this year is particularly abnormal. Several types of flowers unique to Noko Island have completely withered, and new green has covered every corner of the island.

Yang Liu stood under the cherry tree in the backyard of Yongfu Temple, watching the tender green leaves on the tree sparkling in the sun.

Of course, it would be more appropriate to say that it is the backyard of the “original site” of Yongfu Temple rather than the backyard of Yongfu Temple.

The previous battle almost razed the entire temple to the ground, leaving only pieces of broken walls and rubble.

Fortunately, the temple is located deep in the mountains and is covered by a barrier, so the impact on the surroundings is not that great. The only difference is that the bronze bell thrown by Yang Liu made a shocking noise because it had flown out of the coverage of the barrier.

Finally, after Uga Shoji’s explanation, the residents on the island accepted the reason that the underground gas pipeline in Yongfu Temple suddenly exploded.

Seeing Yuga Zhaoji coming over, Yang Liu turned to look at him: “What’s going on?”

“We have contacted the construction team and will start rebuilding tomorrow. The things that can be salvaged have been sorted out and temporarily placed in the house on the other side.”

At this point, Uga Shoji showed a trace of bitterness on his face: “When I was a child, I always disliked the temple houses because they were too old and I didn’t want to live there. Now it’s good, I can live in a new house…”

Yang Liu was silent for a moment, not knowing how to comfort him, so she could only reach out and pat his shoulder.

The temple he had been guarding was destroyed, and his grandfather was impersonated by someone with ulterior motives. With so many bad things coming together, it was already quite strong for this little monk to still be able to muster up the strength to deal with these things.

“I’m not that sad. What’s more, my mother is willing to stay in the temple, so it can be considered a blessing in disguise.” Uga Shoji smiled.

After waking up, Kurama Yuki confessed her identity to Uga Shoji. The mother and son finally met after many years, which exceeded Yang Liu and others’ original purpose.

“How is Kurama Xue doing now?” Yang Liu also thought of the nine-tailed fox.

At the end of the day she fell into a coma again, so everyone had to hastily put her back in the basement.

“It’s much better now. Although she has lost most of her strength, the soul-locking chain has been released. Mother will be able to recover her strength after just a few years of rest.” Uga Shoji smiled and scratched his head.

“We have already discussed it and plan to build a shrine on the land next to the new temple and let mother serve as a miko. This way, the residents of the island can get to know mother again.”

Yang Liu’s face twitched when he heard this: “You… can a monk run a shrine?”

“It doesn’t matter. Anyway, this mountain and the one next to it are all temples. There are already several shrines in the mountain. Now we are just slightly changing the location of those shrines.”

Looking at Uga Shoji who was planning for the future, Yang Liu turned his head expressionlessly:

“Damn it, I’m such a fool to worry about you rich people!”

The two chatted for a few more words, and then a crisp bell rang from the temporary residence of Yongfu Temple at the foot of the mountain, and Uga Shoji had to say goodbye and leave – that was a signal from his mother calling him home for dinner.

Looking at Uga Shoji’s brisk back, Yang Liu couldn’t help but smile slightly, then turned and walked towards the ferry:

“Well… let’s have braised pork tonight!”
