Captain-Commander Yamamoto Genryūsai Shigekuni, Captain Aizen Sōsuke, Kyōraku Shunsui, Retsu Unohana, Kenpachi Zaraki… these are all individuals you must avoid."
"As for the others, you can fight them with confidence."
Shinigami Chu Yang scratched his head, mocking himself, "Counting them all, I actually don't have much chance of winning against many."
Demon Slayer Chu Yang suddenly spoke, "Regarding Source Breathing, I've recently had a small breakthrough. You can try to comprehend it well when you go back; it might be helpful."
Pirate Chu Yang also added, "Although I've been busy researching Bloodline Factor Technology during this time, I haven't neglected my Haki training. Don't worry."
Shinigami Chu Yang nodded repeatedly, "I know you guys are putting in effort. I was just joking earlier. I'm very confident about my journey to the Soul Society."
Marvel Chu Yang suddenly spoke, "The core of Sage Mode is the balance of three energies: body, spirit, and nature."
"There shouldn't be natural energy in the Soul Society, right? Isn't everything there composed of Reishi?"
"Under such circumstances, how will you use Sage Mode?"
Shinigami Chu Yang was stunned.
He hadn't considered this question yet.
Marvel Chu Yang patted his shoulder and comforted him, "Go back and quickly practice how to construct a new Sage Mode using Reishi."
Shinigami Chu Yang immediately fell into deep thought.
Marvel Chu Yang turned to Magic Chu Yang and asked, "At your current level of wandless casting, can you cast the Unforgivable Curses?"
Magic Chu Yang shook his head, "Not yet. I can only cast some simple spells."
Marvel Chu Yang felt a bit regretful. He thought that if his wandless casting could barely reach the level of casting the Imperius Curse, he would consider joining S.H.I.E.L.D..
If he could control Hydra's high-ranking officials with the Imperius Curse, he would gain considerable assistance.
Everyone chatted for a while longer, then returned to their respective worlds.
…
Wuxia World.
The steel blade in front of him was 0.01 seconds away from striking Chu Yang's head. As he opened his eyes, black lightning, invisible to ordinary people, began to rage wildly, and a terrifying power swept through the surroundings.
Conqueror's Haki.
The small thug's eyes rolled back, and he fell straight down in front of Chu Yang.
Not just him, all the thugs on the entire street were affected by the Haoshoku impact, instantly falling unconscious.
The muscular man with three large bumps on his head felt as if his head had suddenly been hammered. He just reached up to touch the back of his head, rolled his eyes, and then also passed out.
He lasted two seconds longer than his subordinates.
As for the big oaf who led the trouble to Chu Yang, unexpectedly, he didn't fall, but swayed precariously, leaning against a pillar.
"Why is my head suddenly so dizzy?" the big oaf muttered to himself, looking like he wanted to vomit but couldn't.
"You brat, you almost got me killed." Chu Yang walked up to him, glaring at him through gritted teeth.
"Brother, I'm sorry…" The big oaf cupped his hands and apologized to the space next to Chu Yang, clearly so dizzy he couldn't tell directions.
"No need to apologize, we'll call it even." Chu Yang smiled, and then, under the big oaf's bewildered gaze, directly knocked him out.
Chu Yang searched him, taking out all his silver and valuables, not even sparing the fur coat he was wearing.
"Leaving you with one set of clothes is me being merciful. Next time, be a bit smarter and don't drag innocent people into this. Not everyone is as lucky as me."
Chu Yang glanced at him, then walked towards those "Funeral Love Family" members with exaggerated hairstyles.
"No grudges, yet capable of brutally killing passersby. They must not be good people." Chu Yang picked up a steel blade from the ground and casually slit one of their throats. "Then don't blame me for returning grievances with grievances, and vengeance with vengeance!"
After saying that, Chu Yang walked forward with the steel blade.
In an instant, the entire street was awash in blood.
Chu Yang's expression was calm.
If today's encounter had happened to any ordinary citizen, they would have undoubtedly died at the hands of these people.
Killing them, Chu Yang felt no psychological burden at all.
When Chu Yang had killed all but the last person, the fellow with three bumps on his head suddenly scrambled up from the ground and ran like the wind.
He had some foundation in qinggong, but he wasn't very skilled; he ran for quite a while but still didn't leave Chu Yang's field of vision.
Chu Yang threw the steel blade. With the enhancement of brute force, even the most ordinary weapon became a deadly tool for the King of Hell.
The fleeing man heard a whooshing sound behind him. Turning his head, he saw a steel blade approaching from a distance, its style extremely familiar.
It's over!
As that thought flashed through his mind, the steel blade pierced through his body. The terrifying force on the blade even carried him into the air, resulting in him being pinned, man and blade, to the street wall.
Chu Yang slowly walked over and looked up at him.
"You… killed me today. My senior brother… will not let you off."
The muscular brother left a harsh threat, then his neck twisted and he died, eyes wide open, full of unwillingness.
"So? Who is your senior brother? Who gives a half-finished warning?"
Chu Yang shook his head helplessly, "You were the one who first had murderous intent towards me, and then I killed you. It's just karmic retribution. If you're going to be in this line of work and don't even have that much awareness, it's disappointing…"
Blood trickled down the wall. Just as it was about to reach Chu Yang's feet, Chu Yang walked away, directly passing the corpse with wide, angry eyes.
As expected, the government officials would arrive soon, and the big oaf had already been left by Chu Yang as a scapegoat.
If the big oaf was lucky enough, he might be able to leave before the officials arrived.
The scapegoat idea wasn't absolute, though.
After a while, Chu Yang, clad in the fur coat, arrived at the Earth God Temple. He searched around but couldn't find the little beggar.
After asking some nearby beggars, Chu Yang learned that the little beggar didn't live there at all.
He had lied to him.
But Chu Yang could understand.
For someone with unusual preferences, gathering with people would mostly be an uncomfortable experience.
After giving some food, Chu Yang left the Earth God Temple.
He searched the city but still found no trace of the little beggar.
At dusk, Chu Yang, as usual, came to the wine shop to listen to stories and eat. He still didn't see the little beggar. Originally, Chu Yang wanted to share the joy of his cheat being activated with the little beggar, but he didn't expect the kid to go missing.
"Such a big table of dishes, no one to share with, all going into my stomach, truly…"
"Awesome!"
With good news, Chu Yang felt refreshed and ate heartily. To hell with the little beggar, get lost!
In a joyful mood, Chu Yang was unusually quiet while listening to the story today. Even when he heard an outrageous tale, he remained calm.
"Since the last time the Northern and Southern Beggar Clans competed at Yan Pass, the martial arts world of the Southern Song and Northern Song dynasties has been much quieter."
"However, in the Ming Dynasty, which borders both the Southern Song and Northern Song, the martial arts world is turbulent."
"Within the Ming Dynasty, the two great demonic cults, the Ming Cult and the Sun Moon Divine Cult, have always had conflicts due to doctrinal differences, leading to constant disputes among their disciples."
"Just a few days ago, Yang Xiao of the Ming Cult and Xiang Wentian of the Sun Moon Divine Cult had a major fight. Both are the Left Protectors of their respective cults, their status practically second to none."
"Their fight once again pushed the dispute between the two cults into the spotlight."
"As for the cause, it seems to be because of a female disciple under Extinction Master of Emei Mountain, named Ji Xiaofu."
"And this Fairy Ji Xiaofu, I heard, is also the long-lost fiancée of Yin Liting, Sixth Hero Yin, from Wudang Mountain…"
Chu Yang listened, dumbfounded!
Ming Cult versus Sun Moon Divine Cult?
"It's one thing for Southern Song and Northern Song to become two separate countries, but now even the Ming Dynasty is joining the fun…"
"Qiao Feng is from Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils, Hong Qigong is from The Legend of the Condor Heroes and The Return of the Condor Heroes, Yang Xiao is from The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber, and Xiang Wentian is from The Smiling, Proud Wanderer."
"The entire Jinxi North is a mess!"
Just as Chu Yang was heading home, the big oaf who had almost gotten him killed was brought, traveling through the night, to a mansion.
The big oaf opened his eyes to see a fierce-looking bald man glaring at him.
It scared him!
"Who are you?"
"Who am I? You killed my junior brother and four disciples, and you ask who I am?"
"Junior brother and disciples? Are you talking about Hou Tonghai and the Huanghe Four Devils? I didn't kill them!"
"Still trying to argue? They went there for you. How could they have died at someone else's hands!"
"I really didn't kill them!"
The big oaf kept defending himself, but he was too clumsy with words.
He just kept repeating, "I didn't do it," and the bald man wouldn't listen.
The bald man sneered, "Guo Jing! First you ruined the prince's assassination of Temujin in Mongolia, and now you've killed my junior brother and disciples, Hou Tonghai and the Huanghe Four Devils. I absolutely cannot spare you!"
"I will keep you in the prince's manor and slowly torment you, making your life worse than death! To quell the hatred in my heart!"
After speaking, Sha Tongtian ordered his servants to drag Guo Jing away!
"Old Sha, looking at that silly boy, he doesn't seem to be lying."
The person speaking next to Sha Tongtian was his good friend, Peng Lianhu, the "Thousand-Hand Butcher," also one of Wan Yan Honglie's five top masters.
Peng Lianhu said, "Hou Tonghai and the Huanghe Four Devils' martial arts are not bad. Even if they couldn't defeat this boy, there's no way they could have been killed by him."
"I've seen the wounds. The Huanghe Four Devils were all struck through the throat with a single blade, and Hou Tonghai was pierced through the chest by a steel blade and pinned to the wall, also with a single move, with no other external injuries."
"Even you and I would find it very difficult to achieve that, wouldn't we?"
Peng Lianhu's words startled Sha Tongtian!
He had always been hot-tempered, and in his rage, he wouldn't think about problems. But after listening to Peng Lianhu's analysis, he realized the seriousness of the situation.
Leaving aside the disciples for now, his junior brother Hou Tonghai's martial arts, while not considered profound, could always withstand a few moves against him, and he wasn't completely defenseless…
