Chapter 84: A Comprehensive Plan
A dream?
For the first time, Sumika felt that only this word could describe her own situation.
She bowed slightly and fixed her eyes on the 8-footed Jade on her palm as she looked terrified.
Sumika tried to sort out the various information she knew as much as possible.
Abe no Seimei was ordered to hunt down the Nine-tailed Fox during the Heian Era, borrowed one of the three ancestral artifacts, the 8-footed Jade, from the emperor and cast the forbidden spell along with the curse of the Nine-tailed Fox as a primer, so that the Nine-tailed Fox was sealed in the 8-footed Jade and became the shikigami of Abe no Seimei and even his onmyoji descendants?
Slightly rubbing her head, this extremely shocking information overwhelmed Sumika.
"Onmyoji Ono Sumika, you just touched the 8-footed Jade, which made the ancestral artifact shine. What happened?"
At the time, noticing that nothing weird had happened to her and the 8-footed Jade, the emperor and others also approached and asked.
Looking around at the faces of others, Sumika concluded succinctly with a confused look.
"I…...I may be the descendant of the great onmyoji Abe no Seimei?"
"What? Are you a descendant of Abe no Seimei?"
The other 15 representatives almost widened their eyes to the limit and exclaimed in unison.
"It is impossible! It is absolutely impossible!" The emperor on the side was also extremely shocked at the moment, then exclaimed and refuted.
As everyone was doubting, the emperor to clarify the details of his suspicion. "The family of the great onmyoji Abe no Seimei became prominent nobles after their success in the Heian Era and Abe no Seimei himself is now the ancestor of the Tsuchimikado family.“
"Onmyoji Ono Sumika, no matter considering your name or family history, it’s impossible that you are a descendant of Abe no Seimei."
When they were listening to him thoughtfully, a representative put forward his speculation in the next second. "Is it possible that Onmyoji Ono Sumika is from an illegitimate generation of Abe no Seimei?"
The emperor suddenly became speechless since he couldn’t prove it.
"Abe no Seimei was really romantic......"
"Well, the great heroes are the same......"
"Congratulations to Ono Sumika Senpai! You’re actually the descendant of Abe no Seimei, no wonder you could made the 8-footed Jade shine. You really have a great future!"
Many onmyojis smiled at each other as they obviously felt that their speculations were very likely to be true. At the same time, they all congratulated Sumika very politely.
Overwhelmed by their sudden congratulations, Sumika touched her forehead to calm herself down.
Suddenly, she recalled a precious gift from that her ancestor left for future generations!
No longer hesitating, Sumika bit her left index finger and squeezed a drop of blood as everyone was surprised, letting it fall on the ancestral artifact 8-footed Jade.
Instantly, the 8-footed Jade seemed to be trembling, its surface cracked inch by inch, and a scent was suddenly revealed, making everyone feel energetic.
"No! Don't break it!" The emperor was heartbroken to see one of the three greatest ancestral artifacts about to be destroyed, so he couldn't wait to rush over and wanted to grab it.
But as the emperor approached, a fierce and intense wind inexplicably blew over in the blink of an eye and left three blood marks on the hand of the emperor, stopping him from getting closer.
Boom!
Accompanied by an explosion, the 8-footed Jade was smashed into countless pieces of jade and a white light shone from inside and illuminated on the hall, while the smoke began to fill the scene.
Seeing the 8-footed Jade destroyed, the emperor had cold feet, but he didn’t fall to the ground thanks to the help of other onmyojis.
At the same time, the smoke quickly dispersed and a beautiful lady with exquisite face was standing at the place where the light came from.
She was wearing a court royal dress embroidered with sun, moon and stars. She had a noble temperament and looked charming.
She wore a piece of jade on her slender neck, which looked similar to the 8-footed Jade, and the jade fragments on the ground no longer existed.
The jade exploded and then recomposited?!
Unlike the jade shining with faint light when everyone circulated previously, the 8-footed Jade was now shining with brilliance, sparkling and attracted everyone’s attention.
"The 8-footed Jade is the treasure of the country and the external jade is just its ordinary appearance. It actually hides an invisible thing deep inside the hearts of the nationals of the Eight Great Islands, responsible for stabilizing everyone’s luck, as well as the hope of the nation."
The stunning beauty glared at the emperor. "How dare you call yourself the emperor of the Eight Great Islands if you don't even understand this simple truth?"
"There were too many wars in the past, so it was difficult to keep the original artifacts. The so-called three ancestral artifacts of the Eight Great Islands in fact have all been damaged, and now you only own the substitutes!"
“Do you mean…...these three ancestral artifacts are fakes?” The representatives were confused.
"Eight Great Islands? What are you?" The emperor was even more stunned since the Eight Great Islands was a very old name for Japan.
Reminiscent of the incredible behavior of the stunning beauty, the emperor wondered whether she was a human or not!
"It’s fake, so? As long as people are willing to believe and recognize, the fake is real…... What is the difference? Didn’t it still seal me in the so-called ‘8-footed Jade’ for hundreds of years?" Ignoring the emperor, the beauty held the eight-footed Jade on her chest, shook her head and smiled wryly, as if she was lamenting her loneliness.
"Speaking of it, I used to be confused in the past. I thought that as long as the people destroyed the 8-footed Jade, I can easily get out of it. It’s a pity that it only happened in my dream.”
The reason why the beauty said this was because Hu Feng wanted to cover up the loopholes of the Japanese three ancestral artifacts!
Because in the study of Japanese history, Hu Feng discovered that the so-called Japanese three artifacts had long been lost in the wars, and they were now the substitutes created by the emperors to fool the people.
In order to avoid the emperor and others noticing something wrong in the future, Hu Feng deliberately made the settings.
