[Red's POV]

There were a total of 5 people floating above. The man in the middle with long spiky hair started speaking again. I didn't realize beforehand but he was speaking in Chinese.

"The Hu Li Jing is ours. Back off." (In Chinese)

As much as I understood the fellow, my Chinese back in school has always been horrendous. It got to some point where I couldn't read some of the Chinese characters. Luckily because of the daily interaction, I had with my parent, speaking it is no issue. However, that doesn't mean I'm going to open my mouth.

"Huh?"

Kinoshita Seiji, Champion of Tsukuyomi-no-Mikoto, annoyed at what the man said, scowled. 

He moved forward and points his Katana at the man.

"I don't know what you are saying but___" He proceeds to use his scabbard to draw a line separating them.

"____ You should know what this means."

The man made a small chuckle before snapping his finger.

Flying straight from above, a girl flew in from one of the crowds and dropped an Axe kick. Seiji who somehow saw through the attacks raised his Katana scabbard and guarded against it. The girl then kicks off from the scabbard, landing on the ground. The girl looked even younger than Kamiyami Haru, looking as if she was around 15 to 16 years old. She was in a full black Tai Chi Uniform with a ponytail hairstyle, looking like someone from a Kung Fu school. One unique thing though was the long silken white scarf floating around her neck as she levitates from the ground again using it.

"Hey what the hell is that?" I asked Ryong.

[A Celestial Scarf... How much trust does this God have to allow an item of divinity given to a child?]

As the young girl and Seiji faced off. A small symbol of the full moon could be seen from the top of their head as they started glaring at each other for a face-off. Ryong already started explaining to me what the symbol on top of their head meant.

[The two of them showed signs of the moon due to their power being so similar. That girl should probably be Chang'e, the moon goddess's champion if we are following the Chinese Pantheon.]

Kinoshita had his hands ready to draw his sword while the little girl with only her Celestial Scarf and fist. The two emit such dense killing intents that it was clear that one of them will die if the two of them clashed.

Slowly ascending from the sky was a slit-eyed man.

As he lands in between the two of them, Seiji who saw it as an intrusion of the duel immediately drew his blade and strikes at the man.

Clunkk-!!!

As the sound of two sharp metals echoed throughout the entire area. I could see that the weapon was blocked by a Jian, a Chinese sword.

"A little feisty, don't you think?" The slit-eyed man asked as he took out a hand fan and started fanning himself.

While the Kinoshita immediately retreats and was about to unsheath his weapon, someone stopped him. It was the Champion of Amaterasu Omikami. She then spoke in Chinese herself, demanding to know why they wanted the Nine-Tailed-Fox.

The man in the middle ascended down slowly and began walking with his hands in his pocket. 

"It was an order from the gods." As the man reached his hands in his coat taking something out.

As Kinoshita once again, was afraid that they might pull a weapon out, Kamiyami just stopped him with her hand and ordered him to stop.

From the man's coat was a scroll that was imbued in golden color. As he opens the scroll, words slowly took form by themselves and the message was displayed from the sky.

[By Heavenly decree, The Nine-Tailed-Fox is to be apprehended and sent to the gates of hell. She will be evaluated for her crimes and will be punished according to the sins she had committed. She is to be apprehended as soon as possible. - King Yama]

Besides the message was also a chopped stamp imbued in gold as well.

With no choice, Kamiyami sighed in silence as she ordered Kinoshita to stand down and allowed the Chinese to take custody of the Tamamo-no-Mae.

There was no protest from Japan's side at all, which struck me odd as to why they would just allow it.

[It's because of King Yama.]

"The King of Hell right?"

[The authority of the Judge of the dead is absolute because both of the two pantheons rely on King Yama when it comes to handling the dead. It meant that both sides would have to compromise. And since the scroll came in possession of the Chinese Champions, it meant King Yama himself asked for a request from them.]

"How the hell do you know all of this when you're not a God?"

[Who says I'm not a God? I could be.]

Ignoring Ryong's complaint so I could continue observing the situation. 

Kamiyami ordered her man to leave it as the last 2 figures from the Chinese Pantheon came down towards the Nine-Tailed-Fox. As the two figures remained covered in their robes, Appearing from their hands were two jet-black rods.

Immediately these 2 mysterious figures jabbed the rods aiming at Tamamo-no-Mae's neck. The rod then formed a circular motion, turning into a choker and chains. The said chains were then wrapped around the Nine-Tailed-Fox as they lift it, dragging her away.

With that, the Chinese Pantheons bid their farewell, by placing their fist in their palm and bowing. Before taking off. The man with the long spiky turned his back looking at Kamiyami Haru before leaving. 

At the moment their eyes meet, a symbol of the sun was shown on top of their heads as he flew off after that.

"Is that...?"

[Yes, the God he served would probably be XiHe, the Goddess of the Sun]

**

As the 5 Chinese Champions left, Li Gui Ye, Champion of Chang'e, took one last look at the Mysterious Masked man from a distance before leaving. The Slit-eyed man, Yue Li, Champion of Zhong Kui, the Demon Hunter and King of Ghosts, asked:

"Xiao Ye, what's wrong?"

"That masked..."

"Oh you noticed too?" Huang YanJi, Champion of XiHe, replied.

"That Mask is pretty___"

As Yue Li tried to continue talking about it, Gui Ye cuts in.

"SO COOL!!! DID YOU SEE HOW IT MOVES AND IS DRAWN? WHAT IS THAT??? I WANT ONE."

As Gui Ye's eyes sparkled in excitement, Li and YanJi stared at each other looking troubled. 

"Haha"

"Little Junior is too excited when she is sent out for a dispatch after training for so long."

"It's best to let her have it since we're going back," Li replied.

The two mysterious figures remained silent the entire journey while still grabbing the Nine-Tailed Fox in mid-air as the Chinese Champion completed their task and returned home.

[Red's POV]

As we watched the Chinese Champions leaving, Lee Jeong-Hun was released with a warning while the rest left to clean up.

All in all, I think it all went well, with no conflict on both side. Hopefully.

With that, the subjugation of the Nine-Tailed-Fox is completed.
