Chapter 81 The Death of Kisaragi and the Appearance of the Shadow

So the question is, how long did the mastermind behind this scheme last?

Is he a ghost?

"Renguang, what happened to the blood sample I asked you to preserve?"

Ren Guang, who rushed over, was immediately hit with a question.

Upon hearing this, Ren Guang recalled carefully, then looked troubled. "Those blood samples were disposed of just in case."

Knowing that it was Muzan Kibutsuji's blood, the cautious Jinko chose to clean it up.

In other words, it's impossible to confirm whether those blood samples were truly Muzan Kibutsuji's blood?

Are there any demons other than Muzan Kibutsuji and his subordinates?

"Renguang, think back carefully, are there any strange things that happened before and after my death?"

Shugo petted Muzan's cat, not expecting Muzan to discover anything.

Ren Guang carefully recalled the events and recounted them one by one.

Hiiragi listened with an expressionless face, his thoughts gradually drifting away.

"Muzan, inform Nakime to go to Musashi Province, and after she arrives, have Kisaragi-hime go to Edo to meet her."

Princess Kisaragi was in Musashi Province.

Hiiragi wanted to test Kisaragi's stance.

*

Princess Kisaragi, who was living a carefree life surrounded by beautiful women in Musashi, received Muzan's order—to go to Edo.

Kisaragi-hime is a terrible ghost.

Muzan has always disliked her and didn't want to see her, so what does he want to do by looking for her this time?

Was it as the shadowy figure said, that they were going to kill her?

When Kisaragi first saw the dark figure, she was very surprised. The figure gave her the feeling of being neither ghost nor ghost, and was very strange.

The shadowy figure's voice seemed to carry a tone that was both amused and enigmatic.

"Princess Kisaragi, are you really willing to submit to Muzan Kibutsuji? You must know he's a tyrannical and unpredictable coward!"

Princess Kisaragi stood there quietly, her face expressionless, and simply replied, "So what? At least he doesn't have much ambition; he just wants to survive."

However, her inner world was far from calm; she was filled with vigilance and suspicion regarding the mysterious shadowy figure that had suddenly appeared in her home.

The shadowy figure seemed unsurprised by Kisaragi's answer, and instead chuckled softly. The laughter echoed in the silent room, sounding particularly eerie and terrifying.

"Heh, what if one day he wants to kill you? You're his rival in love, aren't you?"

These words struck like a thunderbolt, instantly shattering Kisaragi's defenses.

She couldn't control her expression; her eyes widened as she stared in disbelief at the dark figure before her, her voice rising an octave involuntarily: "Who are you? How do you know these things?"

It should be noted that the events of that year have long been buried by time, and apart from a few individuals involved, it is impossible for anyone else to know the inside story.

Faced with Kisaragi's questioning, the shadowy figure remained calm and composed, maintaining his enigmatic smile and saying nothing.

After a long while, he slowly reached out and gently pushed a crystal-clear glass tube in front of Kisaragi.

The glass tube contained a blood-red liquid that shimmered eerily in the dim light.

"This is a medicine that can help you get out of control; whether you take it or not is up to you."

After leaving those words, the shadowy figure vanished silently into the darkness like a ghost, leaving only a stunned Princess Kisaragi facing the glass tube filled with an unknown liquid, her mind filled with countless thoughts.

He wasn't in a hurry. He knew Muzan; Kibutsuji Muzan would definitely kill Kisaragi-hime.

The discussion is over.

Kisaragi took out a glass tube from the drawer and looked at the scarlet liquid inside.

The scarlet liquid reflected the unpredictable expression in Kisaragi's eyes.

Her intuition told her that this meeting was going to be bad.

After hesitating for a moment, Kisaragi-hime drank the liquid.

The scarlet liquid slid into her stomach with unparalleled smoothness, gradually transforming Kisaragi-hime.

Three thousand meters underground in Musashi Country lies the Infinite Castle.

In his child form, Muzan said in a childish voice, "I can't sense Kisaragi-hime anymore."

All ghosts have an inseparable connection with him, the progenitor of ghosts, but now that connection has been severed?

Veins bulged on Muzan's forehead, his tone filled with extreme anger.

Shugo pulled the tantrum-throwing Muzan into his arms and comforted him in his heart.

Control your emotions; as a leader, you must not let your emotions show.

Muzan, you're too easily swayed by emotions.

Muzan buried his tender face in Shuuga's chest, nuzzling against him and feeling the broad embrace of Shuuga (the male mother), his anger gradually subsiding.

I'm going to kill her!

That woman betrayed his kindness.

As expected, they betrayed him? Shugo, carrying Muzan, walked out of Nakime's Infinity Castle and appeared directly beside Kisaragi.

Princess Kisaragi was startled and stared in astonishment at the two demons, Hiiragi and Niki.

"It's been a long time, Princess Kisaragi."

Shugo, who was observing his surroundings, first greeted the crowd, and then noticed the glass tube.

With a warm smile and an incredibly kind tone, Shugo asked, "Can you tell me who gave you this?"

Princess Kisaragi shivered.

She realized she had fallen into a trap and become cannon fodder in the battle between the shadowy figure and Shugo.

"I can explain!" Kisaragi Princess quickly spoke up after noticing Muzan's murderous intent in his eyes.

Hiiragi ignored her, grabbed Kisaragi's fair neck, ripped open her stomach, and tried to find the tube of liquid.

But all he saw was sour, foul-smelling gastric juice.

Disappointment.JPG

The husband cut open his wife's stomach upon their first meeting after a long separation, which was truly touching!

"I've told you, can you please let me go?" Kisaragi asked weakly, sitting on the ground.

"That only works if you can make it useful," Shugo said in a deep voice.

Kisaragi-hime then recounted what happened when they first met.

"I only met him once, and I don't know anything else."

Princess Kisaragi forced a smile.

A shadowy figure?

You know a lot.

Shugo thought expressionlessly, staring at Kisaragi for a long time, long enough for Kisaragi to feel a chill run down her spine, before she left carrying little Muzan.

Alive, survived.

Fortunately, Fujiwara Shugo is a good person who keeps his promises!

As if granted a pardon, Kisame got up, only to have a black thorn pierce her heart the next second.

A beautiful face contorted in pain as she struggled to turn back.

Muzan, perched on Shugo's shoulder, smiled maliciously at Kisaragi-hime. His smile was sweet, innocent, and adorable, easily evoking a woman's maternal instincts.

Throughout the entire ordeal, her ex-husband didn't even glance at her, only showing her his back.

Damn it! That cold-blooded, heartless bastard.

Dog-male!

Don't drag me into your play!

Princess Kisaragi died in utter misery.

Shugo returned to the Infinity Castle with a calm expression.

He had always intended to get rid of Kisaragi Princess; she was a political opportunist.

With her keen intuition, she chose Shugo, the victor, as a shield and lived a carefree and happy life.

99% of wealthy women don't live as comfortably as she does.

That shows she's a smart person.

Hiiragi thought, Muzan is already quite cunning, we can't leave behind a clever ghost who knows too much about Muzan.

Ren Guang would have to consider the other party's past status, so he had to take this ruthless action himself.

He married a wife simply to silence everyone's gossip.

Fujiwara no Shugo had absolutely no trust in Kisaragi-hime.

There was no affection between them, only self-interest.

Now that the benefits are gone, expecting him to protect her is just wishful thinking on her part.
