Chapter 161 Sesshomaru 23
Ge Wei cupped her face in her hands, now understanding why Sister Qingyue liked Xiao Ling so much.
"Xiaoling is so cute. We're leaving now. Take good care of yourself."
"Yes!" Xiaoling nodded vigorously while holding the cloth bag.
She will cherish these things. It's a pity she didn't get to see Lady Qingyue this time.
Kagome and the others left and continued along the same route they had taken before.
"Xiaoling is a very sensible child."
Looking at Xiaoling, Coral thought of her younger brother, Amber, who was a little older than Xiaoling but just as well-behaved and adorable.
Maitreya: "Yes, he's not very old, but his words are very heartwarming."
Kagome: "We need to find Sister Qingyue quickly."
...
In a dark castle.
Naraku looked at the dull woman beside him, already having a plan in mind.
He wanted to devour Sesshomaru, absorb Sesshomaru's great demon power, and make this woman attack Sesshomaru. After she injured Sesshomaru, he would reap the benefits and eliminate many future troubles.
Even if he breaks the barrier of his castle to attract Inuyasha, he still has the power to fight Inuyasha, so that his two brothers don't have to join forces to eliminate him first and then fight amongst themselves.
If he doesn't control this woman, he'll have to worry about Inuyasha finding this place with Sesshomaru. He'll have to keep an eye on Sesshomaru while also guarding against Inuyasha's Tessaiga. In the end, he doesn't even know if he'll be able to successfully absorb Sesshomaru.
Hidden in the corner, Kagura looked at Qingyue with a suspicious expression.
"This human woman can influence Sesshomaru?"
"I don't see any difference between her and other humans. She probably can't even beat a priestess!"
Naraku, who had been smiling slightly because of his perfect plan, straightened his lips when he heard Kagura's words.
"She has regained her senses, and you can't even withstand one of her moves."
Kagura exclaimed in surprise, "This is impossible! I am the messenger of the wind!"
"You can't even beat Sesshomaru, yet you dare to look down on her? Get out and do your job." Naraku sneered.
He wasn't even sure how high his chances of survival were against Qing Yue. Kagura was really courting death; she was just a clone he had created.
He sensed the fear the Shikon Jewel had towards Qingyue. This was different from the situation with Kagome. He couldn't control this woman for long. While she was still under his control, he had to make the most of her power as soon as possible.
Kagura gritted her teeth, turned around, and left.
Walking angrily down the castle corridor, something felt off. From Naraku's words, he seemed quite wary of that human woman. If that human woman regained her senses, could she kill Naraku?
In this way, she can regain her freedom and become a true messenger of the wind.
Unfortunately, the woman is still under control, and her own heart is still in Naraku's hands; she is still some distance from freedom.
However, this gave her another hope. One hope was placed on Sesshomaru, who was confident that he had the power to kill Naraku. Now, she had another hope, which she placed on the woman from before.
Once she regains her senses, she will surely be able to kill Naraku, and she will then be free.
Thinking of this, Kagura happily plucked a feather from her hair and flew into the air.
What she didn't know was that Naraku had been holding Kagura's heart in his hand all along, and he knew all her thoughts.
"Kagura, the moment you withdraw will be the moment you die."
The words dimmed the expressionless face of the woman who had been holding the mirror. She had hidden all her emotions very well, or rather, since she was a mirror, she shouldn't have any extra emotions.
Kagura is different from them. They were born together, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they are twins. One is a wind messenger born of flesh, and the other is a mirror goddess born of blood.
She had always known what her younger sister Kagura was thinking, but the person she was loyal to was Naraku, who had tried to persuade her, but to no avail.
Kagura is the wind, yet she has no freedom. How can the wind not be free? This is what Kagura has always been troubled by.
Qingyue inside her body was multitasking.
She watched the images played for her by the Shikon Jewel shards while listening to Naraku and the others' conversation.
Qingyue was indifferent to Naraku's next scheme. Her body wasn't easy to control, let alone the fact that she could still try to wield Weiyu while unconscious.
Losing consciousness is equivalent to sealing off the soul; without her soul, the body is merely an ordinary human shell.
Naraku's schemes will ultimately come to nothing.
Perhaps because his schemes had all succeeded in the past, or at least largely succeeded even when they didn't, Naraku became overly confident in his plans.
Seeing that Qingyue was distracted, the Four Souls Fragments pressed on and released footage from 50 years ago.
We absolutely cannot let her go now. At least after Naraku absorbs Sesshomaru, he will stop caring about her.
"Wow, you have a good eye! Keep it up!"
Qingyue raised an eyebrow and looked at the scene where Kikyo accepted the Shikon Jewel's request, met Inuyasha, fell in love with Inuyasha, and saved Onigumo, and so on. A series of events unfolded before her eyes.
It's unclear whether it was because Qingyue praised the Four Souls Fragment, but the Four Souls Fragment flashed twice, and the image clarity improved considerably.
...
Jaken smelled the scent and said, "This scent...it's that female demon from last time, isn't it?"
Sesshomaru remained silent. He already knew who the newcomer was. Although the scent was similar, it was not Naraku himself, but his clone Kagura.
Kagura flew through the air to where Sesshomaru was, created a gust of wind, jumped down, and landed in front of Sesshomaru.
"meet again."
"Who wants to see you!" Jaken said irritably as he was swept to the ground by the wind.
Kagura didn't bother with this little demon; she still had a mission to complete, not to mention that this little demon was Sesshomaru's servant, and she wasn't confident she could kill the little demon Jaken in front of Sesshomaru.
"What nonsense are you going to spout this time?" Sesshomaru looked at Kagura calmly. "Or are you here to die?"
Kagura held her fan up warily in front of her: "I don't want to die so soon. I haven't gained my freedom yet."
"Don't worry, I'm not here to make a deal with you this time. Naraku asked me to tell you something."
Sesshomaru frowned; he didn't think Naraku had any good news to tell him.
"Naraku told me to tell you that the human woman you care about is in his hands."
As soon as she finished speaking, Kagura sat on her feathers and flew into the air.
Sesshomaru's sharp eyes narrowed: "Do you think I, Sesshomaru, would willingly walk into your trap for the sake of a human woman?"
"By the way, that human woman's name is Qing Yue."
After speaking, the demon in the sky flew away without stopping.
Sesshomaru's face on the ground was as black as ink, and his eyes were icy cold.
She has come back?
