Chapter Fifty-six: Guidance
"Hmm, where is Little Kill going after leaving the border of Western Country?" Kokoro was being carried in a princess carry by Satsuki, since they were currently flying through the sky and she couldn't use her abilities as a human.
"Go and take your father away from that despicable human woman." A hint of disgust flashed in Sesshomaru's eyes, although since this girl had come to his side, he had somewhat changed his views on humans. But this girl was different from those humans, never fearing the yōkai nor liking to get close to humans; she was a human but seemed more like them, the yōkai.
"Is that the princess you're talking about? I heard her name is Kagome, a very beautiful and gentle princess." Looking at Sesshomaru's expression, it was clear he intended to kill Kagome. It was said that Kagome was already pregnant with Inuyasha. When Tsukino realized this, his smile turned icy cold, enough to freeze people to death. Meanwhile, Sesshomaru couldn't understand why his father would betray his mother for a human, and the temperature around him kept dropping. However, in order for the story to progress smoothly, Sesshomaru couldn't be allowed to kill her.
"But Xiao Sha can't kill her now, because last time a flea named Ming Jia told him that the enemy army was attacking the castle where the princess was, so Ya Wang has been by her side all along. Xiao Sha thinks that if he kills that woman, Ya Wang won't just sit back and do nothing, hasn't he already sent someone to investigate?"
The life of Sesshomaru, the first time he was drenched with a bucket of cold water. If it were someone else, they would have been thrown down from tens of thousands of meters high. For the first time, there was a change in Sesshomaru's decision-making, after all, he still couldn't defeat his father at this point. 'Tessaiga', he had always wanted to obtain that 'Tessaiga', and as long as he could get that 'Tessaiga', he would be able to gain even greater power and change his demonic powers. 'Tessaiga' was now his only hope...
"Are we just going to go back like this? Can't we go play in the nearby town?" I stared at Sesshomaru with a disappointed face as he prepared to turn around. Having finally come to the Warring States era, it was frustrating to be cooped up in that castle all day, just like a canary in a cage.
"Let's go." Kuroba glanced at the person with a faint gaze, hugged her and turned to fly towards the human town. Although he disliked humans, he didn't want to see her disappointed eyes.

Korosuke Maru landed not far from the human town, and if you ask why, it's because a monster was blocking their way. He put down the child, coldly staring at him like he was looking at a dead person. "Get lost."
Blocking our way was a monster that had transformed into human form, but with a layer of faint scales on both sides of its cheeks. At first glance, it was clear that it was a snake or lizard-like monster, and from time to time, it spat out red apricot seeds, which should be the Snake Monster. The monster seemed completely unaware that Sesshomaru was a great demon lord, and with a crazed expression, said "Who are you? How dare you trespass on my territory?"
"I don't know where there is a place that I, Sesshomaru, cannot enter." Leaving those words behind, he attacked, and Sesshomaru didn't have many idle words to exchange with this worthless demon.
Killing Life Ball, the index finger sprouts a fluorescent whip towards the snake demon, my eyes flash with several small stars, this is the queen's whip that will be used to discipline Inuyasha in the future~~~ Thinking back to those days, Inuyasha was indeed taught a lesson and became obedient, poor little Killing Life Ball has such an disobedient younger brother, should be whipped more often. (Aoi-chan, you're actually an S, aren't you?)
"Slap——slap——" Two blood marks were instantly drawn on the snake demon's body, and its skin burst open. The snake demon's face turned green, took a deep breath, and spat out black purple poisonous fog from its mouth. The snake demon smiled with satisfaction, he was very confident in his poison, those two people would definitely die without a doubt.
As I watched the poisonous fog approach me, my body suddenly felt light, and when I came to my senses, I had already been taken far away by Xiao Sha. I couldn't help but shiver with cold, it was really cold, not only was Xiao Sha's expression icy, but even the temperature around us seemed to drop below zero, indeed a must-have product for sweltering summer days.
"Wait here, Sakura." Then turned around and disappeared again.
…………
I took out my bow and arrow, thinking about how to make the most of the shrine maiden's power. Since last time, the pink color on my bow and arrow has only deepened a bit. Is it necessary to live like a monk, eating vegetarian every day, reciting scriptures, and purifying myself in places with waterfalls? I shook my head vigorously, no way! Absolutely not!
"Hehe... quite an interesting little girl, try to calm down, put your empty hands on the bow and focus on the tree in front of you." I didn't know when someone appeared beside me, wearing a Yin-Yang Master's clothes, with black long hair, but I could feel that he had very strong power. It was clear that he wasn't a bad person or anything, because his soul was beautiful, though it seemed to be missing something.
He did as he said, without putting the bow and arrow on, just pulling open the bowstring with one hand. He looked calmly at the tree in front of him, putting his strength into the hand holding the bowstring. It was a strange feeling that the hand holding the bowstring had a warm sensation, then releasing the bowstring, a sound like an arrow whizzing by the ear, and then a pink-colored arrow shape entered the field of vision, followed by inserting into the tree and disappearing...
I blinked a few times, staring blankly at the scorched tree, this shooting method is simply like the Extinction Master in Death God.
"Little girl, what is an Extinction Master? And does the God of Death exist in this world?" The black-haired man looked at me quietly, but his eyes were very warm, however, his smile seemed lonely and proud.
"The Extinction Master is someone who shoots out arrows like this, shooting out blue light. He's different from the shrine maidens, he kills souls. And the Death God really exists, just like how there's a Netherworld in this world." This doesn't need to be hidden anymore, since I already know who he is. It's only a matter of time before he finds out about this too.
"How can one preserve their power and memories during reincarnation?" The black-haired man seemed to know that I knew the general idea, so he continued to ask me.
“……If you want to save your memories, just don't drink Meng Po's soup. If you want to save your strength, then go threaten Yanluo Wang~~ Of course, your strength must be very strong, or the consequences will be terrible, and you'll be thrown into a pig's womb~~ This is the thank-you gift you taught me earlier, thank you very much, it was a great help.” He smiled at him with a raised smile.
"...you are different from those humans, your heart won't think too much, very pure."
"Hmm... I suppose it's because I don't like to think too much, most of the time I just say what's on my mind." He tilted his head in thought before responding to him, he was different from those humans as well, not greedy like them, with only one ideal.
"We'll meet again, won't we?"
"Alright, don't mind those human thoughts too much, they'll only add to your troubles."

………
It won't be long before Korosuke arrives, and as usual, he should be able to take care of that snake demon quickly. "Sakura, are you okay?"
"Ah, Sakura is so obedient~~" She smiled brightly at him, great, finally can eat something different from the Western food~~ (So this was the reason you've been thinking about it all day)
