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

Chapter 231 A Farewell Without Being a Burden
Standin was now incredibly curious; there were so many mysterious things in the world.

He desperately wanted to know all the legends about Chinese ghosts and gods, but knowing that haste makes waste, he could only ask about what he cared about most.

"It seems that Mr. Li Xuan is an official in Fengdu Hell?"

Li Xuan laughed and said, "The Fengdu Judge is a general position. In Fengdu, he is now the chief judge in charge of matters concerning ghosts and gods, and can directly judge the crimes of some ghosts and gods... However, if I act recklessly, I will also be punished."

Standin nodded: "I see..."

……

Li Xuan pulled back the curtain covering Higa Kotoko, who was sitting in the corner, and helped her sit down in a chair, saying, "You put in a lot of effort this time, and I am very grateful to you."

Kotoko Higa's physical injuries have healed, but she needs time to recover her condition. She heard Li Xuan's sincere gratitude.

A sudden panic gripped him, and he said, "No, no, I was the one who handled the Grim Reaper's matter. I'm the one who dragged Mr. Li Xuan into this. I should be thanking you."

She remembered her sister's call and borrowed her phone to call back.

The two sisters have a telepathic connection; if the older sister is in trouble, the younger sister will sense it, and vice versa. During the Pokémon incident, when Makoto Higa was injured, Kotoko Higa immediately made a phone call...

The seemingly unsolvable Grim Reaper incident, which has plagued exorcists for decades, has finally been resolved!

The exorcist forums on the dark web are buzzing with activity!
The reputation of Higa Kotoko, the exorcist from the island nation, skyrocketed. Later, some exorcists received inside information that the final sword strike that cleaved the sky and revealed the universe was performed by Li Xuan from China, who summoned a deity. This immediately became a hot topic, igniting the restlessness in the hearts of every exorcist...

Exorcists all have their own beliefs, and the images of gods and deities reside in their hearts.

But the object of faith remains elusive and never responds, which can shake even the most steadfast heart.

The fact that the gods of China have actually responded has filled most exorcists with immense excitement. "Look at their gods!" "They really exist!"

Having dealt with the Grim Reaper's matter, the black notebook did not urge for a return date.

Li Xuan met many exorcists who came to him from afar in New York, all of whom wanted to join the Fengdu lineage. However, upon hearing about the strict laws, regulations, and punishments, many of them were scared away.

In the end, only five people were determined to join.

Standin, Thunderbolt, Kotoko Higa, and two people from Hong Kong Island.

Li Xuan was not taking on disciples, but merely pointing out the path to becoming a judge. As long as one kneels before the Northern Emperor of Fengdu and promises that these people will be severely punished by gods and spirits if they commit evil deeds in the future, then Iron Enclosure Mountain will be inevitable.

He also distanced himself from the situation...

The ripple effects are terrifying.

After doing these things.

The black notebook appeared, reminding me that I could return to the real world.

He said goodbye to the five people.

They were utterly shocked. They already thought Li Xuan was so incredibly powerful he seemed to belong to another world, but they hadn't realized it wasn't just an adjective, but a fact...

Standin assured him, "Li Xuan, go in peace. The Northern Emperor's faith will surely flourish again in the United States!"

The Human Torch's image has long since changed. All the nails have been removed, all the tattoos have been lasered off, and he's now dressed in ordinary clothes, looking like the boy next door.

With a determined look in his eyes, he said, "Li Xuan, thank you for showing me this path. I will strive to follow in your footsteps..."

Li Xuan smiled and said, "Keep it up."

That's about it for the small talk...

In the last half hour, Higa Kotoko found Li Xuan alone at the corner of the Queen Building, her heart pounding wildly.

Li Xuan sensed something was wrong with Higa Kotoko and asked, "Are you still feeling unwell?"

Kotoko Higa was still dressed like a boss, with her hands in her pockets, though her thighs were almost bleeding from being pinched. She still had that smiling expression on her face and said in a joking tone, "Mr. Li Xuan is a very outstanding person. After spending some time together from Japan to now, it's a little hard to see him suddenly leaving, and to another world at that."

She said in a very relaxed tone, "If we were in the same world, when I couldn't defeat the evil spirits, I could still find you, a powerful figure, to rely on..." Li Xuan keenly noticed that Higa Kotoko seemed to be carrying a hint of melancholy. Could it be because of him?

He said, "If you leave the Shinto sect and join the Fengdu lineage, as long as you do not do evil and strictly abide by the law, then the entire Fengdu region will be your strongest support."

but……

That powerful backer isn't you.

Higa Kotoko covered her mouth and chuckled, "That makes sense. It seems time is running out. So, how should I say goodbye to you?"

Li Xuan extended his right hand and smiled, "Just like when we first met."

Higa Kotoko was somewhat dazed. She first met Li Xuan at the hospital, and her first thought at that time was to kill the man in front of her...

She extended her right hand and said with what she considered her brightest smile, "Hello, my name is Higa Kotoko, and I am known as the strongest exorcist in the island nation."

Li Xuan reached out and shook her hand, saying, "Hello, my name is Li Xuan. I am a Fengdu Taoist priest from China, and I am also a Taoist priest."

Higa Kotoko withdrew her hand and said, "What a coincidence."

Li Xuan hummed in agreement.

The two of them were suddenly caught in an awkward silence, unsure of what to say.

Kotoko Higa broke the silence first, asking, "Even after you went to other worlds, did you continue to do the work of punishing evil, promoting good, and exorcising demons?"

Li Xuan: "Mm."

Higa Kotoko pulled up her sleeve, intending to show Li Xuan the scars on her skin, but instead revealed delicate, fair skin.

She forgot that all the injuries she had sustained since the exorcism had been healed by Li Xuan.

"I wanted to show you my scars and tell you about the hardships of exorcism, but it seems I won't have that chance now..."

"Sorry, I suddenly feel a bit..."

"I'll give this to you."

Kotoko Higa handed the sunglasses hanging in her pocket to Li Xuan and said, "I don't have anything valuable, so these sunglasses will serve as my eyes. Go and see other worlds for me."

Li Xuan took it and put it in his pocket: "Hmm."

It's time to return.

A gentle breeze was blowing all around.

Knowing it was time to say goodbye, Higa Kotoko said, "It must be tough being alone all the time. You have to keep going... If you can, come and see this world."

Li Xuan saw sadness in her eyes. Could such a strong woman also be sad about saying goodbye?

He remembered a comforting gesture from a Japanese anime, and without thinking, he raised his right hand and scratched Higa Kotoko's head a few times, but without getting the hang of it, he ended up with a messy, disheveled head...

Uh……

That's enough to convey the meaning.

Higa Kotoko stood there in astonishment, not expecting Li Xuan to pull such a move.

A gentle breeze blew by, and Li Xuan vanished completely from this world.

Kotoko Higa turned to look at the floor-to-ceiling windows of the Queen's Building, where her disheveled hair was reflected. She licked her slightly dry lips...

The phone rang.

Makoto Higa's voice rang out: "Sister, are you sad?"
