well I think she's more of amalgamation of various legend made into one

for example one of the legend of Mizuchi is that they're man-eating snake and one day they'll rose to heaven as a real dragon.

and probably the so called Yato is just another variant of Mizuchi.

If we're going by Nasuverse lore then Japan is filled with Demon hunter clan like Ryougi, Nanaya and Asakami that hunt apparition like her does exist, it's fully possible that she's one of the target for those kind of clan or something.. anyway since this Oryou is not Oryou that we know IRL it might even be possible that it's just any random stuff not based on legend or something.
