Tsubaki lost, but the mere fact of "losing" was not enough to make them speechless. Chun, who was forced to awaken her spiritual power, can directly use all of her innate spiritual power because her shackles are broken. This is an ability gained at the cost of extreme flaws. However, for Platycodon, whose spiritual power is naturally awakened, the spiritual power that can be mobilized is still in a safety valve. Tsubaki used all her strength to challenge Kikyo's start, but still failed. Just because Suyue and Xizhao can’t see through it doesn’t mean that the other clergy can’t see through it. This reminded them of how deep the abyss was when they competed with the witch Qingyun. "I'm sorry, Master, for causing you trouble." Tsubaki picked up the wand and apologized to Priest Qinghe. "Don't be so reckless next time."
The priest Qinghe wanted to scold him, but in the end he couldn't bear to do it. "You're amazing, Kikyo." Tsubaki then turned to look at Kikyo and smiled slightly. Seeing the smile on Tsubaki's face, Kikyo was also very happy and said from the bottom of her heart: "Tsubaki is also very good!" "Looks like everything is fine." Yun He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw this. "..." Only Yuzhong Jin remained silent, just staring at Chun's profile. "Junior Sister Tsubaki! Junior Sister Kikyo!" The next moment, Suyue and Xizhao rushed forward and abducted Chun and Kikyo. "I made everyone laugh." Priest Qinghe smiled helplessly at this. The shrine competition was over, and the clergy of each branch left with their disciples. Priest Chigusa stood under the torii gate of the main entrance, side by side with Priest Qinghe, and then said, "Qinghe boy." "Uncle." Priest Qinghe said respectfully. "You must be very tired..." Priest Chigusa said metaphorically. "..."
In response, Priest Qinghe did not respond. "Living in the same era as Qingyun Witch, you must be very tired. You want to chase after her, but you find that you can't catch up with her no matter what. In the end, your Taoism is also shattered." Priest Qiangusa looked up at the sky and continued, "We mountain dwellers always face challenges head-on, no matter how dangerous the peaks or how raging the waves are, we just want to cross them and reach the other side step by step. But if there is a chasm in the way, we have to bypass it even if we are unwilling. If someone in the world intends to conquer it, the only outcome will be to be crushed to pieces." The natural barrier used to be called Qingyun, but now it is called Platycodon. "How many people have been defeated in this? How many people have stopped here? The sun and the moon shine together, but only the sun shines, and the bright moon is just a foil. Whether it is today or a hundred years later, this result will never change." Priest Chigusa warned: "Try to make that child give up chasing, she is a good seedling." The child was naturally only talking about Chun. "……I see." Priest Qinghe nodded slightly. …… As disciples of the main chief priest of Hikawa Shrine, Sugetsu, Yuzho and Tsubaki see off the Yamabushi of the branch shrine. After finishing all this, it was already evening. Suyue and Xizhao were preparing dinner, while Kikyo was still chirping beside Chun. Chun sat at the table, as if nothing had happened, just like usual. After dinner, Suyue and Xizhao went back to sleep first. After Kikyo accompanied Chun in practicing for a while, she finally couldn't resist the sleepiness. Chun looked at Kikyo who was lying next to him, covered her with a quilt, then left the side hall alone, went to the woods where he used to practice at night and sat in front of a stone. Looking at the bright moon in the sky, the moonlight sprinkled on her face. Just sitting there, with a cool breeze blowing on her face, she finally couldn't hold back, and wet tears hung in her eyes. "Wow~ I lost!" All the resentment that has been suppressed for a day is released at this moment. The sobbing cries echoed in the woods. Volume 186 Inuyasha (Part ): Chapter Chapter The Sadness of Reluctance …… The cold wind blew her hair into a mess. The girl in white cried bitterly under the bright moon. The night is deep and the wind is howling. The heart then cycles through sadness between night and day. She lost. In the "competition" with Kikyo, she was completely suppressed by the opponent.
Even if he appeared very calm, he was still unwilling inside. But if she cried because she lost the "competition", especially the "competition" that she started, how would she appear in the eyes of outsiders? Only in this lonely midnight, away from the hustle and bustle of the world, can one truly vent his emotions. I practiced so hard, why is the result so cruel? Chun felt more confused than unwilling. She just sat there, meditating in the woods where there was no one or seemingly no one, as if time had been silent for this. The sobbing sound gradually stopped, and the emotional catharsis also subsided. But my depressed heart still sank to the bottom. "Tsubaki." A soft call came from behind. Chun, who was leaning against the stone, was startled when she heard the words and quickly wiped away the remaining tears from the corners of her eyes. However, her still slightly red eye sockets were still bright under the bright and clear moonlight. "Miko sister?" Chun didn't need to turn around to recognize the other person just by listening to the voice, and couldn't help asking, "Why are you here?" "Ah~ I was sitting on the windowsill just now admiring the moon, but a gust of wind blew me down." Yuzhongjin said as a matter of course, and then asked back: "It's so late, Tsubaki, what are you still doing in the woods?" In fact, Yuzhong Jin had been watching the other person from the treetop next to him as early as two quarters of an hour ago. However, when he saw Chun venting her emotions, he did not have the heart to disturb her and waited until the latter's mood calmed down a little before showing up. Tsubaki didn't want others to see her in such a state of disgrace, so Yuzhongjin treated it as an "accidental" occurrence. "I'm sorry! Sister Miko, you were so resistant, but I still acted recklessly." Chun clutched the hem of her skirt, feeling somewhat desperate. "Are you unwilling? Do you regret it?" Yuzhongjin then continued to Tsubaki: "If you don't fight, there will be no loss." "I'm not willing, but I don't regret it." Chun never regretted the decision she made. "is it?" Yu Zhuanjin walked forward slowly, sat next to Chun, and said, "It's natural to be unwilling to lose the competition. In this world, no one will not be willing to do so, whether it's me, Yunhe, or even Suyue and Xizhao, they will not be willing to do so." "Sister..." Hearing this, Tsubaki raised her head. "Yes, that's them. They are usually silly, but that doesn't mean they can take anything lightly. It's just because you are the one who defeated them that they 'willingly' accept it."
Yu Zhuanjin knew that Su Yue and Xi Zhao hugged each other in the kitchen afterwards, and he encouraged them for a long time and vowed to ask for the place back from the children of other branches next year. Only then did he cheer up before the food was burnt. At this point, Yu Zhuanjin looked up at the sky and continued, "I have also sparred with your Nun Yunhe before. On the day I defeated her, she was a little unwilling. Although she didn't say it, I could see it. It was just because I was the one who defeated her, so she accepted this fact." "Sister Miko." Tsubaki bit her lip and looked towards Yuzenjin. "Here it is~" Yuzhongjin probably knew what Tsubaki was going to ask, she had already guessed it when she came. "You don't let me spar with Kikyo because you know I can't beat her no matter what?" Tsubaki asked a question she didn't want to know the answer to. "Yes." Yuzhong Jin answered simply. Because the answer had already been formulated on the way. Hearing this, Chun clenched her tiny fists. She knew clearly that the answer was this, but she still found it difficult to control herself after getting a clear response. “Does hard work really work?!” Tsubaki asked in an almost fearful tone. "……some." Yuzhongjin raised his head and looked at Chun, and said with certainty: "If it's you, there must be one." With the addition of the SR-level Daughter of the Ugly Hour, Tsubaki's upper limit has been greatly expanded. "I don't let you spar 'now' because you are definitely no match for Kikyo right now. You work hard, but you can't make up for the gap in just half a year. You still have many shortcomings and haven't played to your strengths. You should be aware of this." Yuzhongjin said her reasoning: "The reason why you are unwilling to give up is because you think you can surpass the other person. If someone doesn't even have this idea, they won't feel unwilling to give up." "You have the potential to be on par with Kikyo, and I will give you that ability." "I promise you that." …… After listening to the words of the miko sister, Tsubaki's emotions calmed down completely. "You are obviously not good at ordinary techniques, but you still want to compete with Kikyo in this area. Isn't it natural that you will lose?" Yuzhongjin also found a reason for Chun. "But I don't know any other curses, and that kind of spell is not suitable for use in a competition..." Tsubaki poked his index fingers at each other and whispered. "If you don't know how to learn, just learn it. If you don't know how to learn it, just look for me. Even if it's just a wisp of residual longing, I still know most things."
Yuzhongjin raised his head proudly. "Can I really find you anytime?" Tsubaki's tone was extremely careful. "of course." Yuzhongjin stood up, jumped on top of Chun's head, and rubbed the latter's head with his hand, and continued: "You can come to me anytime for any problem. I led you down this path, so I will be responsible to the end."
