Shun looked at the place where Moryo once was, not even a trace of evil aura remained. He raised his eyebrows slightly, a hint of surprise flashing through his heart.
"It's gone just like that?"
He had expected Moryo to last a bit longer, allowing him to try a few more Ninjutsu in Nature Mode. But judging from the earlier skirmish, Moryo's power level was roughly equivalent to One Tail Shukaku, perhaps more troubleso because of itsimmortality.
However, its core power, the extre Yin Release resentnt and negative energy, was precisely countered by his Nature Mode, which is why he was instantly killed by his full-power strike.
He looked at Miroku beside him and smiled faintly. "Moryo was too weak. Let's return to the Land of Demons."
Then, he deactivated Nature Mode. The vast natural energy around him receded like a tide, and the towering Inferno Angel Susanoo shrank, returning to its 210-ter height.
Inferno Angel Susanoo once again flapped its light wings, turning into a golden stream of light, and returned to the capital of the Land of Demons.
When Inferno Angel Susanoo landed in front of the Priestess Castle and the light gate reopened, the 360 people practically scrambled out. Many people's legs gave way, and they directly knelt on the ground. They looked at the two people standing in the crystal on Susanoo's forehead, their gaze filled with fanaticism and reverence, as if they were looking at true gods.
"Long live Fire God-sama!"
"Long live Your Highness Miroku!"
"The demon Moryo has been completely annihilated!!!"
The shouts of ecstasy swept through the entire castle like a tsunami, spreading throughout the Land of Demons at an unprecedented speed.
Shun landed lightly with Miroku.
At this mont, no one dared to voice any criticism about the morning's rumors. Instead, there was boundless worship and blessings.
The union of the priestess and this powerful Fire God was simply a divine blessing for the Land of Demons.
Shun then proposed to Miroku that he take her back to the Land of Water to get married. However, Miroku, after learning that he had six other consorts in the Land of Water, gently shook her head.
She held Shun's arm, her gaze gentle but firm. "Shun, I understand your intentions. But I am the priestess of the Land of Demons. Although Moryo is gone, the country still needs stability, and the faith of its people needs guidance. I cannot leave them at this ti. The Land of Demons needs ."
She looked up at him, her eyes filled with apology.
Shun looked at her resolute gaze and understood her sense of responsibility and commitnt. He did not insist but instead showed an understanding smile.
"If that's the case, then we won't leave. We will hold the wedding here in the Land of Demons."
Miroku's eyes widened in surprise. "Eh? Here?"
Shun's tone was calm. "Of course, you are the priestess, so you should naturally receive the blessings of all people and have a grand wedding in your own country. I want everyone to know that you are my wife."
Miroku's heart was instantly filled with imnse emotion and joy. She had originally worried that he would be displeased, but she hadn't expected him to be so considerate, even willing to hold the wedding in her country.
She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him deeply. "Mm. I'll listen to you."
Shun laughed heartily. "In three days, Miroku and I will hold our grand wedding here. The whole country will celebrate."
As the news spread, the entire Land of Demons plunged into a sea of revelry.
The joyous news of Fire God's marriage to the priestess intertwined, and the atmosphere reached its peak.
After making preliminary arrangents for the wedding preparations, Shun took Miroku's hand.
"Co, I'll take you to the Land of Water to et the others in the family."
Miroku nodded obediently, her heart filled with both curiosity and a hint of imperceptible nervousness.
The Flying Thunder God Technique activated, and spatial fluctuations rippled.
Soon, the two appeared from the castle in the Land of Demons into the Daimyo Mansion in the Land of Water.
Miroku curiously surveyed her surroundings. The architectural style here was completely different from the ancient and mysterious style of the Land of Demons.
Hearing the commotion, several consorts erged from their rooms one after another.
Shun calmly introduced, "This is Miroku, the priestess of the Land of Demons. I have decided to marry her as a consort."
Sāra smiled and said, "Welco, Miroku. You are indeed as pure and beautiful as the rumors say."
Chie, holding Hamamaru, nodded gently in greeting. "Welco to our big family."
Tsunade sized up Miroku, a playful smile on her lips, but also nodded as a greeting.
Mikoto, Ami, and Yukari also expressed their welco.
The atmosphere seed harmonious, and Miroku breathed a slight sigh of relief.
Just then, a slightly teasing and displeased girl's voice sounded. "Oh, Your Excellency, is truly amazing. Every ti he goes out, he brings back a beautiful girl."
Everyone turned to see i leaning against the doorfra, arms crossed, the sourness in her tone almost palpable from ten miles away.
She was now 15 years old, with a charming face and a height of 1.66 ters. She had already beco graceful and slender, but there was still a hint of a girl's capriciousness and innocence in her brows.
Hearing this, Shun was not annoyed but instead laughed heartily. He walked over, habitually trying to ruffle her hair, but i angrily dodged him.
He deliberately drew out his words, teasing her. "What? i-chan has an opinion? Even if you do, it's useless, you… little… brat."
i hated that he always brought up her age, as if she would never grow up, and imdiately stamped her foot in anger.
"Shun! You're a scoundrel! A big playboy!"
Looking at the charming, bright girl in front of him, her cheeks flushed with anger, Shun pretended to ponder, saying earnestly. "Hmm… just a little brat, but with quite a temper. Your psychological state isn't very mature yet. I rember the Land of Water's law stipulates that won can marry at sixteen? This seems a bit unreasonable. Look at so people, they clearly still have a child's heart. For the happiness of the citizens, I think it's necessary to and the law."
He looked at Yukari, who was secretly smiling, and announced, "Issue my command. Effective imdiately, revise the Land of Water's marriage law, changing the minimum age for won to marry from sixteen to eighteen. Hmm, it's settled."
At these words, the hall first fell silent, then several consorts couldn't help but cover their mouths and chuckle.
i was completely stunned. This ant that her wedding with Shun would be postponed by at least two years. A huge sense of grievance instantly welled up in her heart. Her eyes imdiately turned red with anger, and she threw herself into Yukari's arms, who was closest to her, sobbing aggrievedly.
"Waaah… Shun! You're a bully. Before, won in the Land of Water could marry at 14, but when I was 14, he changed it to 16, and now he's changed it to 18. Yukari-nee, look at him. He… he always bullies . Wuwuwu… I'll never get married…"
Miroku watched this dramatic scene, her initial slight nervousness long gone.
Life in the Daimyo Mansion of the Land of Water seed more interesting than she had imagined.
