But unfortunately, he didn't even get to use his power before he was completely suppressed by Ling Wuji.
The audience was disappointed.
Volume 3: The Sword of Heaven: Chapter : Epilogue ()
Ling Wu Ji certainly wouldn't worry about someone like Kusanagi Godou who was not yet mature in mind.
Perhaps for these godslayers, creating miracles is the norm, but even miracles must follow the principles. The "principles" that Ling Wu Ji controls directly target his shortcomings, so naturally he can retreat without fighting.
In Ling Wu Ji's opinion, the only godslayer who can truly resist the "sounds of man" and "sounds of nature" is probably someone like the Sword King who holds a pure and innocent heart.
The rest are basically hanging.
"However, the number of God Slayers is already dangerous."
"Danger?"
Ling Wuji felt a little unbelievable about the word Medusa uttered.
"Don't you know? The so-called Last King is actually a hero driven by fate to destroy the excessive number of God Slayers wandering on the earth. The more God Slayers there are on this planet, the greater the possibility that the Last King will be awakened by fate. And fate is basically unpreventable. So, to be on the safe side, I suggest you kill one or two God Slayers. For example, Kusanagi Godou is a good choice."
"Isn't this not good?"
"What's wrong?"
“It doesn’t seem like he did anything wrong.”
"You have to understand," Medusa was lying on the bed in the place Ling Wuji had arranged for her, her eyes fixed on the book in front of her, but she spoke clearly, "If you were just a second-rate magician, the best outcome would be that you would be driven out of Japan by Kusanagi Godou. Why would you be so tolerant of such a destined enemy who can't actually get along with you? What if he really completed the so-called 'enlightenment' process as you said?"
Ling Wuji just shook his head: "I don't think he can do it."
"It's best not to underestimate any God Slayer, okay?"
“I just have more confidence in myself.”
"This doesn't sound very convincing."
Medusa said meaningfully.
"But don't I still have the Sky Curtain Barrier and you?"
"Well, please me more."
Medusa said bluntly.
"Besides, defeating and killing are two different things. You also said there is a so-called destiny. What if destiny turns its gun against me? I heard that there seems to be no successful precedent for assassinating the God Slayer."
"If fate wants to deal with you, I'm afraid you won't have the chance to obtain your so-called 'dragon-slaying technique'," Medusa said calmly, "But it's up to you. You don't seem to care about this kind of thing anyway."
"What kind of thing?"
"The life and death of the entire human race, at least you in Japan don't care."
Ling Wuji couldn't tell whether he cared or not.
But now he just wants to temporarily withdraw from his identity in the mysterious side and does not want to engage in too much activity.
"You may not get what you want."
Medusa, who had been reading a book, finally raised her eyes at this time and spoke to the boy thoughtfully.
"It doesn't matter," Ling Wuji thought for a moment and said, "The Japanese mysterious faction is basically my opponent anyway. After this duel, those who dare to get close to Kusanagi Godou are the kind of opponents who are happy to dance. I can just use Kusanagi Godou as their banner to gather them together, and I don't have to deal with them one by one in the future."
"Don't be too happy now, be careful of being put on the list in the future."
“You got it.”[1]
Ling Wu Ji just said.
……
Kusanagi Godou's defeat obviously did not exceed some people's expectations.
But they actively dug out the information they wanted from that confrontation that was watched by everyone.
The Official History Compilation Committee is one of these people.
"Kusanagi-san, you said that when you were confronting him, you couldn't muster any desire to attack him, so you couldn't do anything to him, right?"
Kusanagi Godou was invited to a shrine far away from Tokyo, where he was talking to a middle-aged office worker-like uncle.
Next to him sat a girl dressed as a witch, an androgynous beauty wearing men's clothes and glasses, and his Italian follower who was like a lover.
Kusanagi Godou just nodded: "It was a very strange feeling. I tried my best to attack him, but I just couldn't have any desire to attack him. It was as if he was just a ball of air standing there. It didn't matter whether I attacked or not."
"So, before you fell into that state, did you notice anything strange?"
At this time, Kusanagi Godou's weakness as a newcomer who knew nothing about the mysterious side was fully exposed.
Luo Hao had long seen through Ling Wuzhi's use of sound - or vibration - to calm and stir up her emotions.
Of course, she was not so naive as to think that blocking the air and the medium through which sound was transmitted could help her resist Ling Wu Ji's magic. Moreover, a proud person like her would never allow herself to have weaknesses that could be repeatedly exploited by others, so she went into seclusion after returning.
Although Ling Wuji felt that she had no hope at all to see the truth.
But he himself was having a hard time doing that.
But he still has some ideas.
But for Luo Hao, she would not listen to anyone's opinions, nor could she tolerate anyone's instructions to her. But if she had not done it in the previous hundreds of years, why could she do it in the future?
Kusanagi Godou's situation also made those people fall into deep thought. Finally, it was Amakasu Touma who broke the silence: "If conventional methods can't find the weakness of that master, then we can only use some shady means, right?"
"Akasu, you can actually say something like this without showing any emotion?"
His boss, Sayamiya Kaoru, who is currently just a high school student, complained about him.
"Well, what do you mean by those shady methods?" the witch asked.
"Assassination, poisoning, etc., right? Although that Lord seems to be able to see through everything under the Sky Curtain Barrier, it is impossible for him to know everything, right? And he doesn't have the destiny power of the God Slayer, so he can't avoid these things without any reason..."
"Although I already knew you were a shady person, aren't you too shady?"
"Who said I'm a descendant of ninja?"
But the people around him still looked at him with disdain.
"If you don't want to use this, then you can only use the beauty trap or something like that, right? After all, in the Chinese novel of the Three Kingdoms, Dong Zhuo died because of the beauty trap."
The eyes of the crowd became even more contemptuous.
However, these messy conspiracies did not have any effect on Ling Wuji. He just followed the routine and went to the new high school at the end of spring break.
Note[1]: you got it.
Volume 3: Between God and Man: Chapter 1: What Happened at the Beginning of School
Ling Wuji originally planned to temporarily hide his mysterious abilities in his daily life, and experience life as a secular idler, but on the first day of school, he had the bad luck to run into an accident:
A girl accidentally let go of her dog while walking it, and the dog started running on the road. At the corner, it was at a loss when faced with a black luxury car that was about to run over it. A boy with dead eyes next to him actually jumped off his bicycle and tried to save the dog from being run over by the car.
Ling Wu Ji would never watch someone get hurt while saving a dog.
He simply grabbed the collar of the dead-eye guy and pulled him down, then he casually broke off a branch and threw it at the handle of the dog's leash. The branch, with great force, got stuck on the leash and dragged the dog away from the car.
"Students, it's good to be compassionate, but you must also act within your means."
He pulled up the boy with dead eyes again and said.
"oh oh."
The boy was still in shock and just responded blankly.
Ling Wuzhi didn't care and just said it casually. He didn't continue to pester them. He had no interest in either the driver of the car or the girl walking the dog. He just walked towards the school on his own.
Ling Wuji's school life was actually quite dull overall.
But Ling Wuji doesn't actually need a very interesting campus life.
His most ideal school life was actually when he was in college in his previous life. To be more specific, it should be his junior year. The courses were relaxed, and he just ran around in different teaching buildings with a few different textbooks every day. Sometimes he only had one or two classes a day. After class, he could run back to the dormitory to play games, chat, and sleep in with the group of bastards in the same dormitory. That was the most comfortable time, and even those courses became cute -
Although most of the time, he is not very serious in class.
Every semester, I would only go to the library with a pile of textbooks to review when the exams were approaching.
Of course, the private school he chose now is not a high school for further studies. If he does not join any clubs or go to private tutoring after school, it is actually similar to when he was in college. The time from 8:4 in the morning to : in the afternoon is not that difficult to endure. He basically just stays in a daze for a while.
As soon as school was over that day, he saw a lot of stalls set up under the teaching building.
Used by the club to attract new members.
But he has no interest in joining any clubs.
"But it seems that the school rules of this school require students to join a club?"
Ling Wuji thought about the content of his morning class meeting - the Japanese call it HR - and didn't have any ideas for a moment. When he was about to go downstairs to go back, he saw someone he knew arguing with a second-year otaku with glasses outside the classroom door.
To Ling Wu Ji, Kasumigaoka Utaha could probably just be considered someone he knew.
Although perhaps part of the reason why he chose this school was because of her.
Of course, this proportion is quite small.
He was just about to pretend that he didn't recognize her and walk away, but it was clear that Kasumigaoka Utaha would not let him go easily. She just evaded the glasses geek with a few words and ran over again, saying, "Ah, someone obviously came to this school because he was obsessed with a certain senior, but he backed off after seeing her in person?"
Ling Wuji nodded immediately and said, "It seems to be true."
When Kasumigaoka Utaha heard him say that, her cheeks flushed, but she still pretended to say, "So if you muster up the courage to confess, I might consider it..."
"what are you talking about?"
Ling Wu Ji pretended to be surprised.
Kasumigaoka Utaha, however, still looked confident and said, "The one standing in front of you is the No. 1 on the list of the most desired girlfriends for all the boys in the school."
“Is there really such a list?”
"Indeed, there is one," the glasses nerd interrupted and said, "By the way, the real No. 1 is not actually the senior..."
"Aki Tomoya! No one will think you're dumb if you don't speak!"
The bespectacled otaku's foot was firmly stepped on by her shoe sole, so he screamed.
"Really?" Ling Wuji said uninterestedly, "But it has nothing to do with me."
"I've already said it, fellow student, if you can muster up the courage..."
"Ah, the senior I was talking about was actually Kirisu Mafuyu-sensei."
