"The Sanchui family we are going to visit today enshrines a celestial fox that has been practicing for thousands of years."

Grandpa told everyone the purpose, and the three-tailed fox's eyes widened: "Sky Fox? But, don't you mean, you are going to strengthen the seal?"

"Yes, a sealed sky fox."

"Is it so powerful?"

Gu Yun asked curiously: "This family is so strong if it can seal Tianhu."

"It's really great."

There seemed to be a deep meaning in Grandpa's smile, and Gu Yun always felt that the purpose of going this time was not just for this commission.

"Hundreds of years ago, the Sky Fox appeared in the world and summoned hundreds of ghosts to walk at night in broad daylight, disrupting the order of the world."

"Finally, with the help of gods, the ancestors of the Sanchui family sealed Tianhu and guarded it for generations."

Being able to summon a hundred ghosts at night, this sky fox can be called a "big monster" even if it is rated as a monster.

And even the gods took action, which shows how powerful the Sky Fox of the Sanchui family is.

"But don't worry."

Grandpa smiled and said: "The Sky Fox has been sealed for hundreds of years, and its power is no longer as strong as it used to be."

The power of the spirit fox comes from the offerings of living beings and the aura of nature.

The existence of the sealing barrier blocks Tianhu from absorbing spiritual energy.

So after hundreds of years, the current Tianhu has just broken out of the seal, and is probably at the level of a lower-level demon.

"Unless it chooses to completely transform into a demon, it won't cause any trouble."

Although the spirit fox has lost a lot of spiritual power, its foundation is still there, just like an empty bucket.

Once Tianhu chooses to pollute the spiritual power, turn it into demonic power, and then desperately absorb the curses and resentments everywhere in this era, that will be the real crisis.

"impossible."

The three-tailed fox directly denied this situation. She explained to everyone: "For Tianhu, absorbing demon power is like letting humans drink sewage."

How could people drink dirty sewage unless they had no choice but to do so?

"Miss Three-Tailed Fox is right," Grandpa said: "Don't say it's impossible for the Sky Fox to break out of the seal. Even if it does run away, it won't go with the devil."

After all, Tianhu is born as a spirit fox. Even if he does evil, it will only be a prank at most, and he will never kill anyone easily.

"Okay, Miss Three-Tailed Fox, hide yourself."

Everyone arrived at the station and got on the tram to Mizugawa. An old man took a girl and a boy, just like a grandfather taking his grandchildren out to play.

Soon after, the grandfather and grandson arrived at their destination before evening.

Mizugawa Station is located in the middle of a field, and the platform is quite shabby. There is a rusty bench, a metal sign with the platform name written on it, and there is no light bulb.

"Oh, oh, I'm really bothering you this time, Mr. Iijima."

The person who came to greet the Iijima family was an elderly woman. She was stooped, had her hands behind her back, and was wearing a red and white witch costume.

"Long time no see, Granny Sanchui."

Granny Sanchui is the person who holds the greatest say in the Sanchui family, but she is not the head of the family.

Anyway, when Rei Iijima (grandpa) was young, Granny Mitsutsuki already looked like an old woman, but fifty years later, she still looks like this.

To a certain extent, she is also a monster old woman.

"These two are..."

"My grandson and granddaughter, the boy's name is Gu Yun and the girl's name is Nao."

"Hello, Granny Sanchui."

Gu Yun and Hayasaka Nao saluted her together.

"Oh, what a polite little guy, hello."

Granny Sanchui glanced at the two of them, and then led everyone into a young man's car.

The young man's name is Mitsui Ryuhiko. He is nineteen years old and is the younger brother of the current head of the Mitsui family.

Almost all the heads of the Sanchui family in the past generations were women.

Because only the women of the Sanzui family can inherit the power of the famous water spirit and protect one side as a water priest.

"Since Mr. Iijima has brought the child here, he must be trying to continue the fate between the two families."

Grandma Sanchui invited Grandpa to use his strength to strengthen the Tianhu seal. By the way, it also allowed Gu Yun to get to know his peers and make more friends.

"Ah, in the Five Elements Family, there is only the Three Hammers of Water Spirit, and I still have some connection with it."

"Well, we help each other and there is no reason for us to refuse."

Grandma Mitsuchi had received a lot of favors from her grandfather in her early years, so she was very willing to help the Iijima family after his death.

"But there are more things I can't do about it."

Granny Sanchui said helplessly: "It is no longer fifty years ago. The Five Elements families have declined, and life is not easy."

"Five Elements Family?"

"Didn't Mr. Iijima tell this child about us?"

"Little Gu Yun has awakened his spiritual power not long ago," the grandfather said with a smile, "but now is the time. Mother-in-law, please introduce this child to me."

There are monsters in this world, and there are also people who have awakened their spiritual power.

Naturally, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and there is power.

Since ancient times, the supernatural world of this country has been jointly controlled by ten families, and they are called the Ten Famous Families.

Among them, Gu Yun already knew that there was the Abe family.

Abe comes from a family of Onmyoji, but he gave up using magic in combat early, and instead specialized in divination, prophecy and Feng Shui. Since the Heian Era, he has been at the top of the supernatural circle.

They control the economy and politics, and it is no exaggeration to say that they are the shadow rulers of this country.

"The Abe family is extremely powerful, but their magic skills are not satisfactory."

Mother-in-law Mitsutsuki, like her grandfather, would subconsciously sneer when mentioning the Abe family: "If we really encounter a powerful demon, we have to rely on our family to defeat it."

To put it simply, the Abe family is rich, but not good at fighting.

Perhaps because of their self-awareness, the Abe family's onmyoji generally do not participate in the battles of exorcising spirits, exorcising demons, and exterminating monsters.

"In addition to the Abe clan, the Five Elements clan was once one of the ten clans."

But that was a long time ago, my mother-in-law said: "It's a pity that during the Warring States Period five hundred years ago, the daimyo were divided into one party and the Five Elements clan separated due to different ideas."

One family was split into five, and the Sanchui family was separated from the Five Elements Clan.

They inherited the water of the Five Elements and then started their own families.

In addition, there are also the Hanabishi of Fire, the Forest of Wood, the Moon of Earth, and the Galaxy of Gold.

Together with the Three Hammers of Water, the five families are collectively called the Five Elements Clan among the Ten Famous Sects.

"Because of the split, the independent Sanchui family is no longer one of the ten sects and has no right to speak."

Mother-in-law Sanchui felt a little emotional, seeming to recall the past glory of the Five Elements family.

"That's better than me," Grandpa said mockingly, "I'm just a charlatan."

The Iijima family is neither a famous family nor a powerful demon-killing family. In the supernatural circle, they are defined as "Wild Fox Zen", which means a self-taught person with no family or five sects.

The upper limit of Yehu Zen is very high, but the lower limit is very low.

The powerful ones, like Grandpa, can control several super-level monsters, and are strong men that even ten famous sects would not dare to provoke.

The weak ones may be like Iijima Tamaki, who can see monsters but cannot cast spells.

Even worse, he couldn't even see the monsters, so he began to kill them without mercy.

This is why everyone in the circle scorns Yehu Chan.

"It turns out that we are at the bottom of the contempt chain."

Gu Yun didn't care much about this. Hayasaka Nao listened quietly and almost understood the situation of the Iijima family.

"Don't listen to Mr. Iijima's nonsense."

Mother-in-law Sanchui snorted: "The man who can be called the Four Heavenly Kings of Yehu Zen is just because of his self-invented spirit control skills. As long as you are willing to speak, the ten sects will immediately give you the vacant position."

The Ten Famous Families is just a title, and there are actually not all ten families and forces now.

The ones that are vacant are used to recruit folk masters like grandpa.

"The Four Heavenly Kings of Yehuchan, what is that?"

When Gu Yun heard this word for the first time, he secretly thought that the people of the island nation had a high level of chuuni, and it was engraved in their bones that they wanted to be the Four Heavenly Kings in everything.

"Why, Teacher Iijima didn't even tell this child?"

Mother-in-law Sanchui sighed, and grandpa quickly said: "Xiao Guyun has only learned spells from me for a month. It is too early for him to do these things."
