After a while, a cold voice from the head of the Four Directions Family could be heard from within the elegant room.
The content was very simple.
Yet, it made the heart of Four Directions Huixue beat uncontrollably fast.
"Do as you please."
After that, there were no other sounds from the elegant room as if the master had already rested.
Upon receiving this answer, Four Directions Huixue tightly clenched her fists, stared at the paper door of the elegant room, bowed deeply with respect, and then turned to leave.
In this situation, a man outside the elegant room stepped forward, his tone somewhat surprised, "Just like that, as she wishes... Is that really okay, Family Head?"
"...," the Four Directions Family Head.
Under the man's gaze, the paper door was pulled open after a while.
"Family Head, what is this...?" the man gasped, his tone both shocked and fearful.
The face of the Four Directions Family Head was covered in bruises as if he had been severely beaten.
No wonder the man looked so astonished.
The Four Directions Family Head waved his hand and shook his head helplessly, "It's not much different from the conditions outside, these are just minor injuries for me; go outside and help."
He waved the man away and then sat down under the corridor.
Sitting there for about ten minutes, he grimaced and touched the bruised spot on his face:
"He was right after all."
Four Directions Huixue was no longer the weakling she used to be... She would make her own decisions...
Actually, Beichuan Si had already mentioned this to him a few hours ago.
But at the time, the Four Directions Family Head had scoffed at Beichuan Si's words.
After all, he had watched Four Directions Huixue grow up and was well aware of her delicate and indecisive character.
Yet what had just happened had completely taken him by surprise.
"Four Directions Huixue... the new Moon Witch...?" he muttered to himself.
To be honest, having Four Directions Huixue continue living with the Four Directions Family as the Moon Witch would be beneficial for them.
After all, the Moon Witch had been cultivated from a young age, and they had put so much effort into raising someone like Four Directions Huixue, so letting her leave would not benefit the Four Directions Family.
Letting her continue as the Moon Witch was also good for them, especially since Beichuan Si had even agreed to several conditions for them...
Nevertheless—
"That youngster is really heavy-handed..." the Four Directions Family Head tugged at his mouth again.
Was it necessary to tear down the door and beat up people just because the Four Directions Clan resisted him a bit and locked him outside?
Was it really necessary to use force when all it took was a little submission?
The Four Directions Family Head touched the bruise on his face.
Initially, he had planned to teach this young man, who had knocked down all his clanspeople, a lesson, but he had not expected to be easily overpowered and severely beaten instead.
Regardless, the Four Directions Family Head was now clear.
Beichuan Si was an exorcism master with boundless prospects, and it was best not to antagonize him.
Now, since the matter of Four Directions Huixue's departure was already settled, there was no way to underestimate her as before.
After all, possessing the Moon Obscuring Mirror and the Moon Gazing Mirror, she, in a sense, also had the right to speak to him face to face.
...
Meanwhile, at Kyoto Station.
Beichuan Si had taken an early train leaving Nara, and the Four Directions Family Head had not been wrong about that.
Beichuan Si placed his luggage by his feet and sat down.
The train was not crowded, which brought some relief.
Since it was not a holiday with massive crowds, there were many empty seats in the car.
"I wonder how Four Directions Huixue is doing," Beichuan Si mused against the window.
By agreeing to some harmless conditions with the Four Directions Family Head, Beichuan Si had received the answer that they "would definitely respect Four Directions Huixue's wishes."
As for the conditions... they were merely collaborations with the Shan Yuan Family and various consortia... nothing significant.
Beichuan Si was simply leading the Four Directions Family, and whether his acquaintances in Tokyo would agree was not his concern.
Just as he was contemplating this, a monotonous ringtone suddenly came from his phone in his pocket.
It was a LINE message alert.
Beichuan Si raised an eyebrow and fished out his phone from his pocket.
On the clean LINE page, there was only one avatar with a new message notification.
It was from Shen Gu Mirai.
Beichuan Si leaned back, relaxed, and then opened the LINE message box, looking through it.
Shen Gu Mirai (13:14 PM): Mr. Temple! It's been two days! When are you coming back! What are you going to do when you return? Oh—speaking of which, Hui Li and I went to see a new movie, and it was quite good! So, Mr. Temple, when are you coming back—when are you coming back!
Beichuan Si couldn't help but stroke his chin as he read these lines.
Even through the screen, he could feel Shen Gu Mirai's resentment for his prolonged absence.
He moved his fingers again, scrolling up.
The entire LINE was filled with messages Shen Gu Mirai had sent him.
However, since Beichuan Si had been in the spiritual realm, he hadn't been able to receive them, and all the messages had accumulated without any notification.
Looking at the messages from Shen Gu Mirai, all echoing "I'm so bored alone, Mr. Temple, come comfort me,"
Beichuan Si's expression softened, and just as he was about to respond to Shen Gu Mirai, another message unexpectedly popped up on his phone screen—
