Volume 9 Chapter 152.1: Wind On The Water (part 1)

A space distortion appeared in front of the theater's big screen.

The maid came out first, like a guide. Behind her, Dazhe stretched and yawned. After he walked out of the portal ultimately, Izanami appeared.

She was no longer Yan Wuyue World's ruler. The good news was that the Yellow Spring's aura no longer plagued her. She restored to her original appearance, but without her origin divinity. Needless to say, that didn't affect her to revert to a beautiful, elegant woman.

Of course, she wasn't on par with her past self due to her loss of origin divinity. Her divine power had dropped by several levels. Despite this, her extraordinary abilities were retained.

As long as she retained the "seed of extraordinary," there was still the possibility of recovery in the future. It was precise because of this possibility that she was willing to pay the price of origin divinity instead of her soul.

"Main world." Izanami's eyes swept past the theater.

She created Yan Wuyue with world fragments. She had always been out of mainstream history. The Yan Wuyue World had been in an ancient environment for countless years. So, naturally, she was pretty unfamiliar with the main world's current development.

Those technologies termed 'science' were the materialism concept that dominated the world. This concept was like invisible shackles imposed on Izanami as she returned to the main world, giving her the feeling of being trapped in a whirlpool.

"What happened? Why is the main world suppressing extraordinary power?" Horror flashed in Yizanami's eyes.

As a divine power user who was once truly weak and possessed the power of a fragmented world, she understood more than anyone what this feeling meant.

In the Immortal ending era, the rules of heaven and earth had changed. The main world had defied transcendent existence.

"It's because the world is dying," You Ye answered Izanami's doubt softly.

Izanami's face twitched slightly as if recalling something. Then, she lowered her head and said nothing.

Dazhe didn't understand what was going on. He looked at the crowd in the theater room curiously. These people seemed to be hypnotized, and even the staff in the theater room looked like puppets right now.

Their consciousness was drawn into the Yan Wuyue World, and their bodies now looked like empty shells. Fortunately, it was in the theater room. If the movie were not over, no one would walk in and find out about it. Otherwise, if such a weird large-scale situation occurred on the street or in other public places, the outside world would go into a commotion.

"Miss Izanami." You Ye said again at this time, "As promised, we have restored you to your original state and returned to the main world. I think even though you no longer have origin divinity, you still retain divine power. You should still be safe in the main world."

Izanami took a deep look at this woman who made her jealous. Not to mention that Izanami was under the main world's restriction and was powerless. She could not defeat You Ye even if she still retained the origin divinity and most of the Yan Wuyue World's authority power.

"I want to take a good look at the changes in the main world over the past tens of thousands of years under the correct history." Izanami slowly said, "The world transformed so much. I may have been away for too long."

"If you still need us, please come to the shop anytime." The maid gracefully sent Izanami away.

Robust divine power was out of Izanami's reach for many years. She even needed to pay her faith to earn divine power. But now, the almighty divine power (referring to You Ye) acted so humble in front of her. It rubbed off an indescribable feeling to her.

Izanami believed that it was not the almighty who became weak.

Staring at the woman's deep blue eyes like the sea, Izanami felt as if she was on tenterhooks.

Not even willing to stay here even for a moment, Izanami's body passed directly through the theater room's wall. Although she no longer had origin divinity, it was still easy to change her body structure with divine power and pass-through this simple substance.

On the streets outside, people come and go. This was the modern society that developed many years after the ancient Divine Land. It just so happened to be the end of the cold winter. The sky went dim, but the city lights were on. On the streets of foreign countries, Izanami was lost and did not know what to do, let alone where to go. She didn't even know whether it was correct to return to this place after paying such a heavy price.

"I should start learning about the changes in history first." Izanami shook her head. When she turned around, her eyes met a woman walking alone on the street. The woman was approaching her.

"Ah, you are..." The woman walking alone saw a beautiful woman wearing a kimono in front of her. She was a little surprised subconsciously.

At the same time, she was shocked. Her consciousness also became blurred for a while.

...

"Should we wait here for the boss to come out or go back to find the boss?"

Of course, the maid made the call now. Dazhe looked at You Ye with a somewhat unnatural expression. He won't forget the maid's means in stimulating his potential.

You Ye whispered, "Just wait here. The time on both sides is different. Master should be coming out soon."

Dazhe nodded.

He had spent at least several days in Yan Wuyue. However, after returning, the movie here had not yet finished.

Dazhe was amazed by such an experience.

When Dazhe was about to speak, the space in front of the screen twisted for a while. The maid immediately turned around with a smile and took a step forward.

Dazhe glanced over and thought to himself: Stop punishing me for being single again.

...

Master Nagato and Shinji were dead.

When the news began to spread in Unripe Rice Village, the Unripe Rice Villagers who had regained a new life were shocked.

Master Nagato was a kind person in the villagers' hearts. The Nagato family had dispensed their wealth impermanently to help the Unripe Rice Villagers survive through the curse!

"Master Nagato has also been unable to leave the village because of the curse. He has not been out for many years, and he has never visited the Kondo family. The Kondo family is the main family that bestows the Nagato family's beloved mansion. Therefore, it's necessary for Nagato to report the matter immediately after resolving the curse. Unfortunately, he encountered the bandits on his journey. Alas, Master Nagato was still a powerful samurai, but it is a pity that he is old now. Master Shinji has not grown up yet."

The villagers were discussing the news that spread from the Nagato family.

"Ai. I didn't expect that a good person like Master Nagato would leave us like this. He couldn't even witness the reborn Unripe Rice Village."

"Yeah, Master Nagato..." The women sullenly wiped their tears.

"We should live on better. I think the master will be comforted if he learns this in the afterlife."

"Yes, let's start a new life!"

While the villagers were chattering and discussing how to deal with the burial of Master Nagato and Shinji Nagato, there were also people in Nagato's family discussing this matter.

Mo Xiaofei and Saburo Nagato.

At the end of the third day, tomorrow was the Unripe Rice Village's ritual day. Mo Xiaofei secretly calculated the time in his heart and was a little absent-minded about what Saburo Nagato said in front of him.

"I took Shinji's dead body quietly out of the village once, disguising him to be a casualty after the battle. Later, I hired a few ronin [1] to bring the news back." Saburo Nagato said calmly, "Nagato Munechika's body is missing. The villagers will assume that he was faced with misfortune. Having Shinji's body retrieved still proves to be solid evidence to the narration. Now, the clan elders are discussing letting me inherit the Nagato family."

Looking at Mo Xiaofei with an indifferent expression, Saburo Nagato continued, "I intend to let Chizuko inherit the Nagato family. After that, I will announce my return to the battlefield. Anyway, I came back under the pretext of recuperating after the war. So my return doesn't seem out of place."

Hearing Chizuko Nagato's name, Mo Xiaofei was a little surprised, "Chizuko Nagato? Are you sure?"

Human's heart is unpredictable. Mo Xiaofei couldn't figure out Saburo Nagato's thoughts at this time. He wanted to confirm it, so he looked directly at Saburo and asked, "Saburo Nagato. Nagato Munechika is dead, and Shinji Nagato is no longer there. No outsider knows the secret of Unripe Rice Village except you. As for me, after this matter is over, I won't reappear. In this way, you don't have to give up the right to inherit the Nagato family. As for Chizuko Nagato, she is not your daughter, right?"

Saburo Nagato shook his head in misery. He muttered to himself, "She is Haru's child after all. No matter how much I hated it, the source of all hatred is also myself in the end. If it wasn't for my greed..."

Saburo Nagato shook his head again, "Chizuko is innocent. These should be regarded as compensation to her. I believe that she will grow up well in the environment of the newly born Unripe Rice Village. Axiu is a kind-hearted child. In fact, Axiu has taken care of Chizuko well over the years."

Saburo Nagato stood up and said, "When the affairs of Nagato's house are completely dealt with, I will go to the dungeon myself. After I enter, please close the entrance and the exit forever. Bury me in it."

The sins of killing his brother, killing his blood relative, humiliating his wife, and fleeing from the battlefield in cowardice... Mo Xiaofei looked at this sinful man, knowing that his heart was already dead.

"Alright."

Mo Xiaofei nodded.

The ritual day was a tradition in Unripe Rice Village over the years. Although Master Nagato was dead, this tradition should not be violated. It was just that the villagers were so down on the ritual day. The place fell into total silence.

The Nagato family did not show up this time, but Saburo Nagato took Chizuko Nagato, Axiu, and two subordinates. The group stood by the side.

The Unripe Rice Witch returned as scheduled, which made the villagers a little more emotional. But Mo Xiaofei still remembered what Takeko had said to him in the first place. The Unripe Rice Witch died because of the curse, and the current witch was supposedly still young.
