"Hmph!" Naraku heard Kagura's words, a chilling smile appearing on his face. With a flip of his palm, a beating heart suddenly appeared.
His fingers slowly tightened as he stared at Kagura and said coldly, "You don't have to go, but if that's the case, I'll have to kill you right now."
"Naraku!" Kagura clutched her chest in pain, her eyes filled with hatred. She gritted her teeth and said, "I'll go."
"Very well." Naraku ignored her resentful gaze and put away the heart, saying indifferently, "Don't worry. The fact that Kanna could return safely after being discovered shows that he isn't as dangerous as you think."
Taiwan Novel Network is great to use, enjoy it anytime.
"Hmph!" Kagura laughed mockingly. "Since he's not that dangerous, why don't you use some indirect schemes like you do with Inuyasha?"
Before Naraku could speak with a darkened expression, Kagura continued to sneer, "Are you afraid of being killed directly after provoking him? After all, that miko by his side can easily break through your Barrier."
After saying that, she ignored Naraku's chilling gaze and turned to leave the room directly.
Ever since she was used as a pawn by Naraku to test Inuyasha and nearly lost her life, Kagura had become increasingly desperate to escape his control.
Because of this, she had already learned the full situation from Kanna about Retsu, who had pushed Naraku into such a state.
Seeing this, Kanna silently followed Kagura out of the room.
"Kagura," Kanna suddenly spoke from behind once they were far from Naraku's room. "Life and death are in Naraku's hands. Don't provoke him."
Walking ahead, Kagura stopped and turned to look at her.
Kanna continued, "We are just Naraku's tools."
"Don't worry, Kanna." Kagura looked at her, a mocking curl at the corner of her mouth. "Naraku won't kill me right now."
Seeing Kanna staring at her quietly, Kagura crouched down to eye level, her tone tinged with self-deprecation. "That guy's life isn't in his own hands right now, either.
As long as Naraku can't escape his current state, he must rely on me to capture Demons for him to sustain his life."
She stood up and gave a self-deprecating laugh. "Weren't the two of us created precisely for this?"
"Alright, I'm going out for a stroll. If I end up dying after following you to monitor that terrifying guy without even getting a good look at this world, it would be too much of a pity."
As Kagura spoke, she prepared to turn and leave. To her, this castle was nothing more than a cold cage; she didn't want to stay for a single second longer.
"You won't die, Kagura." Just then, Kanna's voice came from behind.
"Why?" Kagura paused and looked back at her in surprise, then her expression suddenly changed as if she had thought of something.
She scooped up Kanna and rushed out of the castle, throwing Kagura's feather onto the ground. Taking Kanna with her, she soared into the sky, quickly distancing themselves from Naraku's castle.
"Kanna, were you caught by him?" It wasn't until the castle had completely vanished from sight that Kagura turned and asked urgently.
"I was," Kanna said expressionlessly.
"What did he do to you? Why did he let you go?" Kagura confirmed her suspicion and followed up quickly.
