Terrifying Heavens: I'll directly worship the Black Law of Fengdu!

Chapter 211 Divine Man, Dragon, and Tiger Portrait Mirror

The Soul Demon was pinned to the spot by the longsword, unable to move. Cracks began to appear on its chest, gradually spreading throughout its body. As Li Xuan fell from the sky, it weakly spoke:
“I have existed since a distant time, and my memories have become blurred, just as you humans cannot remember your childhood.”

“I was born from the resentment of poor children, some who were abused to death, some who were abandoned, some who died in accidents, all kinds of tragic fates that are lamentable.”

“I was born from the resentment of children, and I am also a god belonging to children.”

"So I created the world 'inside the mountains,' where children can play carefree and have no painful memories until they disappear."

Li Xuan reached out and grasped the hilt of the knife, looking at it: "But you've indiscriminately killed innocent people, you've become obsessed, you've gone from loving children to snatching them away. These days, children are just fuel for your resentment in your eyes..."

The faces of many adults dying flashed through the mind of the Soul Demon. He said, "I understand a principle: only by becoming infinitely powerful can one create the rules one desires."

This world is full of violence, hypocrisy, and everyone is so pedantic. If I want to protect the children, I must have greater power. The death of some adults is nothing.

You should know that those who abandon children are almost always adults.

He shifted his body slightly, his wounds tore open, and a large amount of black blood flowed out. His breathing became heavy, and his empty eyes reflected Li Xuan's figure.

"Your scent feels so unfamiliar to me..."

"But it doesn't matter. Anyway, there are many more monsters in this broken world. You'll eventually fall down."

"Ha ha……"

"Hypocrisy, it's all a product of hypocrisy, I'm not wrong!"

Click!

With a crisp sound, the crack widened instantly, and the Soul Demon was completely shattered into fragments. A gentle breeze, seemingly from nowhere, blew by, leaving not even a speck of dust behind...

Is this the end?

Li Xuan put the Miao sword back into the gourd, then glanced back at Higa Kotoko, who was standing on the balcony looking down. Her expression showed a hint of shock, and when their eyes met, she nodded.

Back inside Hideki Tahara's house.

The scene was a mess. Kotoko carefully changed out of her clothes, folded them neatly, and put them into a box. These clothes had a special cleaning process, and no matter how dirty they were, she must never show any disgust.

Then, she untied the ropes binding Chisa, tore off the sealing talisman, and blew on it.

Chisa snapped out of her daze, and her first words were, "Where's my sister? I need to pee..."

Both Makoto Higa and Nozaki regained consciousness. Nozaki felt a slight dent in his face because he had been punched in the face by Kotoko Higa.

Nozaki let out a "waaa" and vomited a bunch of green caterpillars on the ground.

Makoto supported him, her gaze falling on Chisa. She immediately went over and hugged her tightly, saying in a trembling voice, "I'm so glad you're alright!"

Looking at the people in the room, Chisa asked in a daze, "Dad, Mom?"

Upon hearing this, Makoto's eyes reddened, and she hugged her arms even tighter, saying, "Mom and Dad are going to a very far place. From now on, Chisa will live with my older sister and brother, okay?"

Chisa really liked this older sister she'd played hide-and-seek with, and immediately said, "Okay~"

Kotoko Higa sighed slightly as she watched her sister's emotional entanglement with the little girl, then said, "You'll have to handle the rest of the work yourselves. I need to take a plane to the United States tomorrow; there are some very important matters waiting for me there."

Makoto, after having this child, I hope you can grow up quickly, I mean psychologically.

She packed up the magical artifacts she had brought, picked up her box, and prepared to leave.

Makoto was a little reluctant to leave and called out to her sister, "So soon? I still have a lot of things to ask you about exorcism. Why don't you stay a few more days?"

Kotoko Higa stood at the door with her suitcase in hand, her back to Makoto.

She suddenly had a strange feeling that if she rejected Makoto now, it wouldn't be so easy to meet her again next time.

But since he became an exorcist, he also had his own mission.

"Makoto, being an ordinary person is much safer than being an exorcist." Kotoko Higa left.

The footsteps in the corridor gradually faded into the distance...

Makoto carried Chisa to the door, only to catch a glimpse of her figure disappearing around the corner. A sudden unease gripped her, as if this moment was a farewell between life and death.

"elder sister!!!"

"I'm waiting for you!!"

She said loudly.

The sky over the neighborhood gradually returned to its normal twilight appearance, and the faint afterglow cast a long, long shadow of Li Xuan standing in the open space...

He has returned to normal attire and looks like an ordinary person.

Kotoko Higa walked out of the building carrying a suitcase. She habitually put on sunglasses to cover the scar over her left eye. Her gaze fell on the setting sun, which was about to disappear, and she couldn't help but laugh: "How foolish of me to care about such superficial things..."

She looked at Li Xuan, extended her right hand, and said, "Let's get to know each other again. I am an exorcist and a medium from Japan."

The claim of being number one in the world is just something others have boasted about.

Li Xuan looked at Higa Kotoko's outstretched right hand; the skin on the back of her hand looked as if it had been burned and then had undergone skin grafts, appearing grotesque.

shake hands.

He said, "A Chinese man, Li Xuan, a judge from Fengdu."

Higa Kotoko handed the box she was carrying to Li Xuan and said, "The Divine Man, Dragon and Tiger Portrait Mirror, may it be returned to China."

Li Xuan accepted it and said, "Thank you."

He didn't open the box to check immediately. Higa Kotoko wouldn't do such a thing, and besides... if she lied to him, she would die even if she went to a parallel world.

Kotoko Higa asked, "I've booked a plane ticket to the United States for tomorrow. Do you want to come with me?"

Li Xuan said, "I'll go to Hong Kong first to release the Lord of the Underworld, and then I'll go to the United States to find you."

The conversation between the two was very brief. After exchanging contact information, Higa Kotoko and Li Xuan each walked in a different direction...

Higa Kotoko reached a corner, then stopped as if possessed, and looked back. Li Xuan had already walked quite far ahead, the sun setting in the direction before him.

See you again in the US.

That's what she was thinking.

……

In Hong Kong, Li Xuan returned. He had actually tried to enter the underworld directly in the island nation, but even after setting up an altar, lighting a talisman to communicate with the underworld, and using the Seventy-Two Arts to communicate with the netherworld, he still couldn't reach the underworld.

Instead, I stumbled into a gray desert, with nothing but the sand beneath my feet and a gray sky...

He wandered in this wondrous space for two days and two nights, with no end in sight. Fortunately, returning only required a single thought.

In Mong Kok, Hong Kong Island, Li Xuan met Huang Yongfa.

Huang Yongfa said that Jiang Xue came back from the underworld and told him that "Li Xuan" was a good person and was not there to deal with them, so he, who had already fled to Guangdong, mainland China, returned.

The moment Huang Yongfa set foot in Guangdong, although everyone was speaking the same dialect, he felt extremely uneasy, as if he were a lone boat adrift on the Pacific Ocean.

Social anxiety is amplified many times over.

Li Xuan didn't exchange many pleasantries with Huang Yongfa. He booked a hotel and went directly to the altar to enter the underworld.

Having visited before, he left numerous traces in the underworld, so we could simply go there. However, we never saw the figure of the ghost messenger Qingzheng...
