"Is this all you do?"
"what?"
"You only acknowledge the status quo, only accept the status quo, only let the status quo slide in the direction of your most pessimistic view, but never make any effort to change the status quo?" Awashima Seri's words were already filled with strong emotions, no longer having the original cold tone.
Is she complaining about something?
Or are you expecting something?
But perhaps it was because of her original cold tone that Ling Wuji felt that there must be a certain distance between them. But if she hoped that this distance would be shortened, then what kind of distance would be appropriate? What kind of distance could bring each other precious, happy, and never-forgotten, never-fading memories?
So, she is actually afraid too.
Fear made Wu Ji refuse her approach.
Even though she had become Ling Wuji's follower, in a sense she had sacrificed a part of herself or even her entire life to tie the two of them together.
But that was just her unilateral behavior.
She didn't know how to gain Ling Wuzhi's trust.
How could she convey her own voice more clearly to the boy who had almost completely closed off his channels of communication with the outside world?
Ling Wu Ji observed such emotions from her words using the perspective of "human music".
But he still hesitated and said:
"But if you observe a person through a thick fog, and your voice may not even reach him clearly, how can you say that he can definitely create precious memories with you? Maybe, when you see him clearly, he is just a pile of unburnable garbage."
Awashima Seri's eyes suddenly widened.
"Oh, non-burnable garbage might be a bit too much, it shouldn't be that serious."
"I never thought that someone like you, who has already set off a huge trend in the occult side of Japan before you even reached adulthood, would have such a strong inferiority complex."
"I don't think I have low self-esteem, but a person who can unhesitatingly treat himself as a living god and demand others to worship him is essentially not a normal person, right? But you yourself said that you are more like a civil servant on the secular side, not a sheriff on the mysterious side. People like you..."
However, Awashima Seri said: "Human beings are essentially creatures that yearn for the unknown."
Ling Wuji said, "You mean... it's because my personality is unpredictable that I'm interesting?"
Volume 2: Sword of Heaven: Chapter 29: Declaration of War
Awashima Seri did not think that Ling Wuzhi's personality was unpredictable. Instead, she felt that he was extremely easy to understand.
Therefore, the problem is not with the "present" Ling Wu Ji, but with the "future" Ling Wu Ji, and his plasticity. Perhaps to a certain extent, Awashima Seri's kindness towards Ling Wu Ji comes from a sense of social responsibility. If Ling Wu Ji is allowed to do whatever he wants, the impact on Japanese society will inevitably be extremely serious.
"I don't deny this possibility," Ling Wuji had no choice but to say, "but in essence, I feel that I can no longer be a normal person in the secular human society."
At this point, the young man suddenly smiled and said:
"But you don't have to worry. Maybe I will be back soon."
"Not long after? Going back?"
Awashima Seri was immediately confused and asked.
"When Luo Hao recovers, I will challenge her, and then everything will be clear."
"Are you crazy?"
Awashima Seri thought Ling Wuji was provoked, so she said, "Didn't you say that the 'Dragon Slaying Technique' is useless against her? And you want to defeat her fair and square. According to your method, shouldn't you first build the Sky Curtain Barrier so that you can sort out the structure of the Sky Curtain Barrier and gain control of the Chinese Sky Curtain Barrier that has been vacant for a thousand years?"
"Just because the 'Dragon Slaying Technique' is useless doesn't mean that other techniques are useless."
Ling Wuji just raised his head and looked at the clear and cloudless sky in this foreign autumn day. For a moment, he couldn't help feeling a little complicated.
And Awashima Seri who was standing next to him was shocked. She had a lot to say, but to this young man, everything seemed self-evident. He would not waver and would not do meaningless things. Since he wanted to challenge the leader Luo Hao now, he must be sure to get out of it safely.
He himself said that he received three life-saving hairs from the Monkey King.
But what if he really won the battle?
Will this young man who has stirred up a storm in Japan's mysterious world return to China?
Will everything he destroyed or saved return to its original state?
Will his arrival make the Japanese mystical side better or worse? What will happen when he leaves? What will happen to the group of believers he has gathered together?
Awashima Seri couldn't think of an answer for a moment.
She could only stare blankly at the boy walking slowly on the streets of Tokyo. At this time, he had removed the transformation spell of Mozi's Five Elements Technique. As always, he looked like an ordinary junior high school student. She could hear his low voice:
"I have been searching for swords for thirty years, and the leaves have fallen and branches have sprouted several times. Since I saw the peach blossoms, I have no doubts until now."
Are you thirty years old? What sword are you looking for? Don't you think the waves you have stirred up yourself are not enough? What are you more unquestionable about?
……
"Ling Wuji sent us a letter of challenge, asking us to fight next month. How do we fight him?"
"Ling Wuji has conquered several spiritual nodes in Japan, and his morale is high. The decisive battle next month will be just the right time to dampen his spirit. Master, you can prepare for the battle. I only need to say a few words to make Ling Wuji surrender without a fight."
——Of course the above words will not happen in reality.
In fact, according to Lu Yinghua's thought, his master Luo Hao might not even pay attention to Ling Wuji's declaration of war.
But what was strange was that after Luo Hao, who had escaped from the pile of rocks, heard Lu Yinghua mention Ling Wuji's declaration of war, he simply asked him: "So, where is the location of his scheduled battle? It can't be the Flower-Fruit Mountain, right?"
Lu Yinghua is her disciple after all.
Therefore, no details of the events of that day were concealed.
I guess he wouldn't dare to hide it.
"He didn't say that, but it shouldn't be the case. He has always wanted to use the Sky Curtain Boundary to suppress you, so he should be in China?"
"will not."
Lu Yinghua didn't say much about Luo Hao's decisive assertion.
Anyway, he had no idea what a pretentious guy like Ling Wuji was thinking.
And since they can separate the God of Disobedience, maybe the God Slayer can do the same? Then can Luo Hao be restored to the state hundreds of years ago before he became the God Slayer? Maybe Luo Hao hundreds of years ago was actually a gentle and lovely beautiful girl?
Lu Yinghua thought with some disrespect.
"Eagle, were you thinking of something impolite just now?"
"No, no, how could that be?"
Lu Yinghua immediately broke out in a cold sweat, and then quickly changed the subject: "You said he would not choose within China, do you have any basis for that?"
"If he wanted to control the Sky Curtain Boundary, he should have already left for China to discuss matters with the Tianshi Mansion and the person in the north. Although the control of the Sky Curtain Boundary has been vacant for a thousand years, even if he can really see through the secrets of heaven and make use of the spiritual energy of Shenzhou for a hundred years, he will definitely not be able to go beyond those two places. He must first negotiate with them on time limits and even trivial matters such as the master-disciple relationship. Otherwise, those two places will secretly obstruct him." Luo Hao was standing on the top of the Tokyo Sky Tree at this time, looking down at all living beings like a god. He seemed to be searching across the vast sea of people for the boy who sounded a little arrogant and wanted to challenge the God Slayer as a mortal. "And since he has chosen to stay in Japan at this time, he will definitely not choose the battlefield there."
"Then, perhaps..."
"It won't be here."
To be fair, if Luo Hao had let go of his pride, he could be considered a powerful figure, commenting on worldly affairs with great insight and penetrating insight:
"You mentioned before that the sky barrier he has built has not yet been connected to the earth veins. If people of my level and the God of Disobedience interfere with it, the sky barrier will be shaken, and he will not be able to gather the spiritual energy and use the magic in it. In this case, what is the difference between here and there?"
Lu Yinghua immediately nodded in agreement.
However, he also found it a bit strange. Aren't people of Luo Hao's level always able to respond to ever-changing situations with the same attitude?
Could it be that he is also afraid of Ling Wu Ji's dragon-slaying skills?
"'Dragon Slaying Technique' is originally a useless technique. It can only be used to sever chaos, but it has no use for non-chaos. Existences like the God of Disobedience were born from heaven and earth, and are divine and clear. As the saying goes, 'The unpredictable yin and yang are called gods'. Since it is 'unpredictable yin and yang', it means that there is no opposition in their origin. The God Slayer has only usurped the power of the God of Disobedience through some means. In other words, from the perspective of origin, the God Slayer is originally a person like an alchemist who only cares about 'use' and not 'Tao'. Am I right, Master Luo?"
A young boy's voice came from far away on the wind.
I think he had already used the "Taixujian" to observe this master and disciple pair.

"All the trouble your mouth has brought you will soon be over!"
Luo Hao just responded like this.
"That's hard to say. The fact that I can stand here and even defeat you later means it's not enough!"
"You little brat, you're showing off your skills now," Luo Hao said with some disdain, "Last time it was because of the relationship with Master Lu Xiujing, this time it's just because of the blessing of the Monkey King!"
"Don't worry, the Great Sage will not take action this time. This decisive battle will be between you and me. If you can defeat me, I will stay overseas forever in this life and will never set foot in China. I will not even bother to even think about going against you anymore."
"He has some self-awareness."
Luo Hao nodded, quite satisfied with Ling Wuji's bet.
"But what if Master Luo loses?"
"What a joke! How could I lose?"
"Don't speak too early," Ling Wuji just sneered, "'Dragon Slaying Technique' is high-level but useless, can't I find a low-level but useful spell? Master Luo, you better tell me what your bet is. Otherwise, if I win, even if I don't die and become a laughing stock, I'm afraid it will be no less than Master Luo!"
"You little bastard!"
Ling Wuji just laughed loudly, his voice echoing in all directions: "If I were just a law-abiding person, why would I have criticized the leader and caused such a disaster?"
"That's true," Luo Hao suddenly calmed down and said, "In that case, if you can defeat me, all the people in the Five Hells Sect, except me, will obey your orders. If our orders conflict, your orders will prevail. You can also let me do three things for you. How about that?"
"Then it's a deal," Ling Wuji said, "Then the battle will be held there, how about that?"
He controlled the spiritual energy in the sky curtain barrier to evolve into a map in front of Luo Hao, and the center of the map was somewhere in the middle of the Pacific Ocean east of Japan.
"Hmph, you don't overestimate your capabilities."
After Luo Hao finished speaking, he took a step forward and disappeared from the spot. Only Lu Yinghua, who had been standing there with her, was left on the top of the Tokyo Sky Tree. The boy, who also looked like a junior high school student, just sighed and said, "What on earth are you thinking?"
"What do you think?"
"How could a mere Yin God possibly defeat my master?"
"You are just a Xiantian, so don't presume to speculate on the methods of people like us in the Taoist sect!"
Ling Wu Ji just said.
"Bah! Is Taoism so great? Let me tell you, beyond seven steps, the spell is fast, within seven steps..."
"The spell is fast and accurate!" Ling Wuji quickly took over his words and looked down on him casually, "What's more, you are a congenital who can't even control the sword! How can you be qualified to say such a thing?"
"Forget it. Anyway, you have the life-saving hair of the Monkey King, and you only have Senior Lu Wenyuan to worry about in China. Now that you have built such a big business in Japan, it's okay to take Senior over!"
"What kind of a shitty foundation do I have? I can't even make a dime, what kind of foundation is that?" Ling Wuji just complained casually, "Besides, that old man will definitely not leave Yuzhang. Besides, I may not lose to your master!"
“Isn’t the possibility of this being impossible too low?”
