The Equality House did not bring Prince Ren into the shrine.
He walked around in a circle.
He walked along the wall of the shrine to a more remote place.
Prince Ren could feel the direction of his spiritual power.
He was not afraid that the Equality House would bring him to some inexplicable place to "exorcise demons" … No,
He still had to be vigilant, right?
"Hmph.
The Equality House is not a field house.
It has no interest in exorcising demons, "the Equality House said.
Prince Ren: "…"
Are you joking?
Who was the person who used the exorcist's skills on the tennis court?
"How many exorcist have you seen?" The Equality House did not even turn its head. "You have a body of spiritual power but don't know how to use it. Your demon power is also wasted."
Prince Ren: "… Do you know what I'm thinking?"
"I guessed," the Equality House said.
What he said was half-true and half-false.
Prince Ren just took it as a joke.
He followed the Equality House into the jungle.
Then, as if he had walked into some kind of enchantment, his eyes suddenly opened up.
What suddenly appeared in front of him was an ancient building complex.
It was not very old.
It just gave people the feeling of a house from the Warring States period.
However, the torii at the far end made such a house seem very unreal.
"Is that the Phoenix Hall of the Equality House?" Prince Ren asked.
The Equality House turned around and glanced at Prince Ren. "Have you never been to Kyoto for sightseeing?"
"I'm not interested in these things," Prince Ren said confidently.
The Equality House snorted. "This is the Equality House."
This could be guessed without an introduction.
The concentration of spiritual power.
And the people walking through the buildings had the same aura.
Prince Ren followed behind the Equality House and walked towards the center. There were a few people who didn't look younger than the Equality House. They were dressed in hunting clothes and looked like Demon Slayers or Onmyoji (Of course, Prince Ren couldn't tell the difference between the two. His Honmaru sword wasn't responsible for giving him a theoretical lesson in this area). They would salute the Equality House and call him eldest young master.
Eldest Young Master?
This was really out of place.
The Equality House responded with a cold expression and brought Prince Ren all the way to the center before stopping.
This was also a shrine, but it also looked like an ordinary small courtyard.
If he opened the door, he would see … who would he see?
"You can go in alone," said the Equality House.
Prince Ren glanced at him and walked past the Equality House to push open the door.
Where did his confidence come from?
It was probably because … he had never explicitly admitted it.
But it had indeed been confirmed that she was the "mother" of the "Great Monster".
The Fox Demon's appearance at the Dark Martial Arts Tournament had left a deep impression on people. And the Maneki-Neko of Xia's generation had more than once expressed, "Kid, you really don't know how lucky you are. With such a strong blessing, you're still restless."
But what else?
Senpai wouldn't sell me out.
Prince Ren thought so and froze for a moment.
The monk standing in front of him …
Why did he look a little familiar?
"We meet again." The kind-looking monk smiled at him.
Prince Ren remembered.
This wasn't a year ago … No, a year and a half ago,
The monk who suddenly appeared in the temple on the way to Hakone's training?
At that time, he also said,
If he had any questions, he could go to the Equality House in Kyoto and ask for help …
"Have you learned to use the power of the stars?" The monk said.
Bullshit.
I'm not Hoshi Jian. My dreams are all the tricks of the White Fox.
Prince Ren and the monk looked at each other. He was sure that he could see the joke in the monk's eyes.
But there was a kind of indulgence for the younger generation.
Prince Ren was very confused.
"You asked me to come …" Prince Ren organized his thoughts. "Senpai told me that you have some news about Yasa-chan."
The monk smiled and said, "Please come with me."
He led Prince Ren to the inner room and sat at the table to make tea.
While the tea was being brewed, the monk introduced the School of Equality to King Ren, including its long history and main areas of activity.
Including the fact that although it originated from the Buddhist hall, it gradually did the work of demon slayers. After the Warring States period, it gradually took on a part of the work of the shrine.
Of course, ordinary people didn't know. If they knew, it would be a mess. People who studied religion and Buddhism would collapse.
But for people with special powers, there was no irreconcilable conflict between the witch and the monk.
"Do you know the Warring States period 500 years ago?
At that time, the most brilliant demon slayer team even included the witch, the monk, and the half-demon. "
The monk was excited to tell the story. "At that time, the most notorious demon, Nairo, was also a half-demon. It was also a fallen human. It maliciously polluted the most precious treasure of the shrine, the Jade of Four Souls.
The witch who mastered the ability of time and space connected the past and the future. She gathered the power of the other righteous people of that generation to destroy Nairo and purify the Jade of Four Souls. That's how there is now peace. "
The water boiled. The monk made tea and pushed it in front of Prince Ren.
Prince Ren held the cup and pondered the story for a while. "It sounds a bit contradictory."
"But it is indeed well-documented." The monk said with a smile. "The witch at that time is probably about to graduate from college now."
"… Puri?"
"Time travel does exist."
The monk said, "Witch Kagome … Oh, the powerful witch in my story was just an ordinary female high school student in the 21st century.
The only special thing about her was that she lived in the shrine, right?
When she connected the passage between the past and reality, her soul resonated with the Jade of Four Souls. Many things happened after that, and these things pointed to the past of the current era that she had already experienced.
It's a big cycle, very interesting. "
This sounded right.
And the theory was somewhat familiar.
People from the future traveled to the past to ensure that they were in the history and present of the real time and space.
… What about the Government of the Time?
People from the future constantly adjusted the trajectory of history so that history would not change.
But people like them in history, the changes they made to history, were they "deviations" that needed to be corrected?
Prince Ren's mind turned quickly.
He took a sip of tea.
It was bitter, but it was also very fragrant.
He looked at the monk. "You mean, Kagome is not a person of this time and space?"
The monk did not deny or admit it.
But this was something that Prince Ren had already confirmed for the most part.
He knew that the white fox was his future self.
But there couldn't be the same two people in the same time and space.
So the white fox couldn't be his future self completely.
And all of the white fox's goals were straightforwardly displayed in front of him.
There was no hiding at all.
"Do you know that … Little Friend White, who left halfway through his previous job?" the monk said.
Prince Ren thought for a while before he realized that "Little Friend White" was talking about the white fox.
Wait a minute, what kind of name was this?
"Or I can call him Mr. Ya," the monk said. "Usually, we are used to calling him White Fox."
Nonsense, in the spiritual world, people called him Prince Ren.
There was no gap in the handover of work, unlike you who had a long gap.
"What kind of work?" Prince Ren asked.
He thought that the white fox wouldn't leave him with a mess again, right?
The big monk continued to deviate from the topic and continued to introduce the half-finished introduction of the Institute of Equality.
Having finished talking about the history of the Equality House, he now began to talk about the more detailed content of the career plan.
For example, the successor selection examination.
"It lasts for a long time. Those of the right age and who show the corresponding talent can participate directly.
At present, the selection of this generation is coming to an end. "
The monk said, "Our evaluation includes the use of spiritual power, the results of killing demons, external communication, and reputation. In addition, there are some minor details, which are more complicated."
"… So?"
"Previously, Little Friend White was the reviewer of Phoenix."
The monk smiled and said, "But he suddenly left. Until now, Phoenix's evaluation record is only half a year apart.
For this half a year and the remaining half a year, how about you complete the evaluation score? "
"… Puri?"
"This is the best choice not to violate the rules.
After all, you and Little Friend White, to a certain extent, are the same soul. "
Prince Ren was a little absent-minded when he walked out of the room.
He was still holding the things that the monk gave him. It was nothing valuable, just a photo album and some information. It was called "Knowing more about Phoenix will help you evaluate him."
So, the information that Liu had spent so much effort to obtain was already in his hands?
No, it was difficult to directly analyze the tennis situation with these trivial information …
Prince Ren raised his head.
He said to the Equality House who was standing at the door, "Senior, thank you for your hard work."
Equality House: "… Stop talking nonsense."
"By the way, can I ask you to shave your beard?"
Prince Ren stared at the Equality House's face, "For example, can I deduct points for your daily score because you don't shave your beard?
An unkempt face is indeed a deduction point, right? "
Equality House: "…"
"Imp, do you want to be beaten?"
Prince Ren blinked and raised the information and evaluation book in his hand.
Equality House: "…"
So, the leader of the society would give him trouble!
The successor … Tsk!
The Equality House's attitude toward the successor was quite contradictory.
On the one hand, he didn't necessarily like this title, but on the other hand, he had been occupying this position for a long time.
He took on some of the responsibilities that this position should have in advance, so naturally, he also enjoyed the benefits that this position could give him.
And now, his spiritual power, state of mind, and "Dao" were more or less related to his experience as an illegitimate successor.
He glanced at Prince Ren and thought about the consequences if this Imp gave him zero points this year …
At worst, he wouldn't be a successor!
"I'm fair and just," Prince Ren retorted.
The Equality House took Prince Ren out of the door, "Up to you.
Gather at the training camp in three days. The national team competition is the most important thing! "
After he finished speaking, he didn't intend to send Prince Ren off. Instead, he threw Prince Ren out of the range of the barrier.
Prince Ren held a stack of information and blinked at the tree in front of him.
What a bad temper.
But the Equality House … Could the words of the big monk be trusted?
Compared to the big monk, he trusted his family's sword more.
So, after listening to Prince Ren's complaints that day, Taro's expression didn't change, "Are you really troubled by this?"
Prince Ren tilted his head, "No, I think it's quite interesting."
"That means that you trust the senior you speak of."
Prince Ren laughed.
"Puri, although he looks like a bad person, he has done what he should do in his position.
It probably makes a lot of people unhappy, but many people have a bad personality. "After he finished speaking, he licked his lips and added," I'm the same, right? "
Taro Tachi glanced at the God's Inquisitor, who had grown a lot in the past year or so.
He had truly grown up.
Not only did he grow up biologically, but his state of mind and strength had also changed dramatically.
