At this moment, Li Mo completely disregarded Yurikawa's slight wariness and instead spoke to her with a hint of appreciation. He also informed Yurikawa and Yotsuya Miko about the benefits that the Dragon Leaf Shrine now offers to its shrine maidens, which made Yotsuya Miko, who had experienced some of the benefits, have her beautiful eyes sparkle.

The reason is simple: Li Mo is never stingy with his own people. These days, Yotsuya Miko has been enjoying all kinds of delicious food at the Dragon Leaf Shrine. The environment of the Dragon Leaf Shrine is becoming more and more suitable for the cultivation and life of extraordinary beings. Naturally, she has noticed the difference between her daily cultivation at the Dragon Leaf Shrine and at home. Moreover, the Dragon Leaf Shrine has a special underground training ground and many special "shikigami" to serve her. Living at the Dragon Leaf Shrine is much more comfortable than at home.

Yurikawa Hana quickly experienced the benefits of the Dragon Leaf Shrine. The Shadow Soldier, whose culinary skills were no less than those of a grand hotel chef, prepared all kinds of delicious food that made the beautiful girl beam with joy. If it weren't for the fact that she knew she was about to undergo a preliminary Qi and Blood Martial Arts training and was therefore restrained, coupled with her special physique that transformed food into life force, she might have accidentally overeaten, creating a comical scene.

Soon, Li Mo guided Baihe Chuanhua in her first Qi and Blood martial arts training. This athletic beauty was indeed talented in this area. Even with the help of the [Seed of Extraordinary], she was able to complete the initial sensing of Qi and Blood on her first try!

……

As the sun set and Tokyo entered its sleepless night, Yotsuya Miko and Yurikawa Hana bid farewell to Li Mo and boarded a taxi driven by staff from the Dragon Leaf Shrine, embarking on their journey home to rest.

The notion that taxi fares in Japan are exorbitant is not a problem for the two of them. The influence of the Dragon Leaf Shrine is growing stronger every day, so even if Yotsuya Miko and Yurikawa Hana took taxis 24 hours a day, it would be a drop in the ocean. Moreover, they didn't have any intention of taking advantage of it. If Li Mo hadn't made the request, the two beautiful girls would have chosen to take the train.

At the very least, Tokyo and even Japan have a very developed train commuting system. If Yotsuya Miko and Yurikawa Hana chose to commute by train every day, it would only take a little more time, and they wouldn't mind taking the train back and forth. However, Li Mo obviously wouldn't let them waste their time like that, especially since Japanese trains are packed with people during peak hours. He used the benefits of the Dragon Leaf Shrine as an excuse to get the two of them to finally agree to take a taxi back at night, so as not to get home even later.

Li Mo did have feelings for the two shrine maidens, but he wasn't in a rush. The current gradual approach was quite good. Moreover, Yotsuya Miko and Yurikawa Hana both had feelings for Li Mo. Yurikawa Hana might still have some affection for him, but Yotsuya Miko was already smitten. It was just that she was too reserved, and Li Mo himself hadn't made their relationship clear.

However, after seeing Yotsuya Miko and Yurikawa Hana leave the Dragon Leaf Shrine, Li Mo also left the shrine shortly after, boarding a van and heading in a certain direction until they reached the outskirts of Tokyo!

"Hmph, I've found your trail..."

When Li Mo arrived in the suburbs of Tokyo, looking at the remote area with what appeared to be a small river and abandoned old buildings in the distance, a smile appeared on his lips. He then got out of the car and waited patiently.

At some point, a faint light seemed to drift across the night sky, resembling a firefly but carrying a barely perceptible fluctuation of spiritual energy. Only exorcists with powerful spiritual energy and keen senses could detect it. Li Mo, of course, knew what it was and understood why the light was there. After all, he had his intelligence network of Shadow Soldiers search for the boss of the anime "Ga-Rei Zero" and knew that Sanzu River and Hiroshi, that brat, were indeed in Tokyo preparing to cause trouble.

Only then could it be clearly seen that the faint light that Li Mo was waiting for was actually an ice-blue butterfly, fluttering in the night sky before slowly descending into that secluded area!

Chapter 12 Killing Sanzu River and Hiro

The ice-blue butterfly, about the same size as an ordinary butterfly but with a special feel, slowly descended towards a house!

If an ordinary person is lucky enough to see it, they will notice the fluorescent glow of the ice-blue butterfly's wings, giving it a dreamlike and ethereal feel. It seems to be incomparable to those common butterflies. Even the rarest and most precious ornamental butterflies pale in comparison to that ice-blue butterfly, and they are not even in the same league.

Of course, the witch insects and butterflies created by a superhuman's spiritual power are completely different from ordinary butterflies; they are indeed incomparable!

At the very least, Li Mo clearly sensed that the ice-blue butterfly, carrying a trace of spiritual power, was a death god to ordinary people. Moreover, Li Mo also knew that behind this ice-blue butterfly was the boss from "Ga-Rei: Zero".

Kazuhiro Sanzukawa, a descendant of the Sanzukawa family who was once a member of the Supernatural Disaster Countermeasures Office of the Japanese Ministry of the Environment and was skilled in the art of shamanism, lost his mother in a plane crash while traveling with her. He then successfully fused with the core fragment of the "Sesshoseki" and came back to life. While hiding, he searched for the other fragments of the "Sesshoseki" and wanted to use the complete "Sesshoseki" to revive his mother.

Now, Kazuhiro Sanzu has already collected several fragments of the Killing Stone and is in Tokyo causing trouble while trying to destroy the Supernatural Disaster Countermeasures Office and other exorcist families, all in order to prevent his plan to resurrect his mother from being disturbed.

Tsk~!

Before the icy blue butterfly could even land on the house, it was shattered from a distance by Li Mo's gentle finger, giving everyone a feeling of a dream being shattered.

The seemingly dreamlike beautiful butterfly shattered into fragments, turning into wisps of blue fluorescent light that dissipated. Li Mo's gaze remained unmoved, instead fixed on the abandoned old buildings. He called out with a hint of impatience, "I said, aren't you going to show up? You little brat playing the 'find your mom' game!"

Whoosh! Li Mo's actions and words in killing the ice-blue butterfly seemed to have pressed a button. A large number of beautiful, seemingly illusory ice-blue butterflies suddenly flew out from the old buildings. The rare scene of hundreds and thousands of ice-blue butterflies fluttering about looked exceptionally dreamlike, making people want to stand still and quietly admire this magnificent scene.

The problem was that Li Mo had no intention of observing carefully; in fact, a hint of interest appeared in his eyes. He knew that the ice-blue butterflies controlled by Sanzu River and Hiro were like the most terrifying poisonous creatures in nature, the more vibrant their colors. Once these ice-blue butterflies stuck to your body, you would lose control of your body.

Li Mo was well aware that there was a significant power gap between himself and the few characters in the "Ga-Rei Zero" anime who had been accidentally affected, but he had no intention of rashly experiencing the power of the ice-blue butterfly. That would undoubtedly be jumping on the line of suicide!

"Boring..."

Li Mo glanced briefly at the dense swarm of ice-blue butterflies rushing towards him, then slowly stretched out his hand and waved it lightly, saying with great disdain.

As Li Mo finished speaking, a pale blue aura enveloped him, and countless pale blue wind blades suddenly appeared in mid-air, completely engulfing the swarm of ice-blue butterflies that rushed towards them.

Amidst the dense, subtle cutting sounds, the ice-blue spiritual butterfly didn't display any strange power at all. It was directly reduced to countless tiny fragments by the pale blue wind blades that cut through steel like tofu. Only the dense pale blue light spots before it turned into nothingness were the last traces left by those ice-blue butterflies in this world.

To command the wind and rain!

This is an innate divine power that Li Mo naturally mastered by fusing the essence of the [God of Disobedience] and the [Dragon of Greed].

Compared to the true dragon supernatural powers of Eastern mythology, the difference between the two is unknown, but Li Mo knew that the wind magic he was unleashing was definitely not ordinary. Even a B-rank evil spirit wouldn't dare say it could withstand being hit by those pale blue wind blades, and the extremely fragile ice-blue butterfly, caught in the concentrated fire, met its fate without further ado.

However, just as the swarm of ice-blue butterflies in the sky was completely wiped out, the spiritual energy fluctuations in those abandoned buildings surged, and then countless ice-blue butterflies flew out from all directions, far exceeding the scale of the previous swarm!

"Oh, so you still have some cards up your sleeve!"

Looking at the countless ice-blue butterflies fluttering in the air, Li Mo showed no fear. Instead, he lazily let his hands hang down, and looking at the ice-blue butterflies swirling around him, he said in a very calm tone, "Sanzu River and Hiro, you brat, you don't need to hide anymore..."

"Who the hell are you?!"

As soon as Li Mo spoke, the swarm of ice-blue butterflies seemed to pause for a moment, but neither approached Li Mo nor left. Instead, a soft child's voice followed, with a hint of surprise in it.

"Hehe, you can call me Li Mo~!"

Li Mo completely disregarded what Sanzu River and Hiro had said, and even introduced himself while looking at the butterflies.

"...So, what exactly do you intend to do by coming to me?"

Hearing Li Mo's straightforward answer, the voice remained silent for a few seconds before asking again.

"Tsk tsk, is this all you're going to do to talk to me?"

Li Mo did not answer immediately. Looking at the butterflies opposite him, he raised an eyebrow and retorted.

In the sky, a swarm of ice-blue butterflies slowly descended. Hundreds or even thousands of ice-blue butterflies suddenly gathered together, and then a little boy with white hair appeared in front of Li Mo.

At first glance, the little boy with white hair covering his left eye looked no more than twelve or thirteen years old. He was wearing a suit similar to British style and had a cute face, but he had a strange smile on his face. The first impression he gave was like seeing a mask with a forced smile. His first impression was not very good.

Of course, Li Mo could sense that the spiritual energy emanating from this white-haired brat was filled with ominous and negative emotions. To those elite exorcists, it would be perceived as an unprecedentedly powerful evil spirit. In Li Mo's assessment, Sanzu River and Hiro's strength was also acceptable, at least one level higher than the supernatural disaster countermeasures room he had seen before!

"So, may I now state my purpose?"

The white-haired boy moved slightly, his right eye, which was not covered, looked at Li Mo with a smile that seemed innocent and cute, and asked the same question again.

"Why did you come? Strictly speaking, I came specifically to find you. Hand over the Killing Stone you possess, and I'll spare your life!"

Looking at Sanzu River and Hiro, the white-haired brat, acting cute, Li Mo remained calm and composed. He glanced meaningfully at Hiro's left eye, which was covered by his hair but still emitted a faint red glow, and said in a very relaxed tone.

Li Mo's words were lighthearted, but they immediately made Sanzuhe and Hiro's expressions turn ugly!

The core fragment of the Killing Stone! This is the core fragment of the Neon-level evil spirit that Sanzukawa Kazuhiro barely managed to control through his obsession in order to revive his mother. This is the reason why his behavior is so obsessive. If someone wants to get the [Killing Stone] fragment on him, there is no better way than to kill Sanzukawa Kazuhiro.

At least in the neon-themed transcendental world of Ga-Rei Zero, anyone attempting to extract a fragment of the deeply fused Killing Stone would be doomed, whether they were an evil spirit or a human. Sanzukawa and Hiro didn't think they would be any exception!

"...Do you know that I came here for the Killing Stone?"

As soon as Li Mo finished speaking, a hint of surprise flashed in Sanzuhe Kazuhiro's eyes. He paused for a moment before speaking, a twisted and unnatural smile spreading across his face. At the same time, the blood-red light emanating from beneath his white bangs intensified, making his small face resemble a ferocious demon: "Then let me see if you, this exorcist, truly have the strength to obtain the Killing Stone I possess!"

*Sizzle*

Before Sanzuhe and Hong could finish speaking, the countless ice-blue butterflies fluttering in the sky transformed into sharp cones the length of chopsticks, piercing down at Li Mo's entire body with a sharp whooshing sound.

The dense spikes completely covered the area where Li Mo was standing. However, before Sanzuhe and Hong could finish their last word, Li Mo had already lightly stepped on the ground and disappeared from the spot. Even after the dense spikes blasted the ground into a honeycomb pattern, they couldn't touch Li Mo at all.

At the same time, Li Mo appeared beside Sanzuhe Kazuhiro without anyone noticing, and with his fingers like knives, he stabbed directly at Sanzuhe Kazuhiro's head!

"Pfft~!"

With a faint sound, Li Mo's outstretched hand slashed directly into Sanzuhe and Hiro's heads.

However, there was no joy in Li Mo's eyes. Instead of advancing, he retreated. In the next instant, Sanzuhe and Hong's bodies transformed into countless ice-blue butterflies, which scattered from their original positions and flew away. They then joined the numerous ice-blue butterflies in the sky to form special spikes and chains, attempting to trap or even kill Li Mo.

Sanzu River and Hiro seemed to be using their true abilities as well. The illusory chains transformed from ice-blue butterflies completely covered the surrounding area, and the falling spikes were timed perfectly, targeting the moment Li Mo was about to retreat!

"interesting……"

Li Mo slowly exhaled, and that breath transformed directly into a phantom dragon shadow, which then rushed forward to meet it.

Without a sound, the illusory dragon shadow swallowed all the sharp cones and chains that fell in front of Li Mo. Then, Li Mo didn't even move a step, and he neutralized Sanzuhe and Hong's move without making a sound!

"watch out!"

Sanzu River and Hiro's voices continued to ring out. Li Mo looked up at the sky and saw the densely packed ice-blue butterflies. Tens of thousands of ice-blue butterflies appeared for some unknown reason, but suddenly flew down to the ground.

The ice-blue butterflies that flew down were like an endless ice-blue blizzard, trying to engulf Li Mo!

"wind!"

Seeing the swarm of ice-blue butterflies fall again, a hint of impatience flashed in Li Mo's eyes. He immediately unleashed his [Summoning Wind and Rain] divine power once more, and even showed a little of his true strength.

Whoosh!

It was as if a Category 12 typhoon had suddenly swept across the sky. The pale blue air currents were even more terrifying than a typhoon, and countless tiny wind blades, barely discernible to the naked eye, turned the raging winds into cutting machines!

In the blink of an eye, tens of thousands of ice-blue butterflies were sliced ​​into ice-blue dust by countless wind blades. Even the abandoned steel and concrete buildings were scraped off with a layer of cement and iron powder by the storm. If the storm hadn't covered such a large area that it stopped after a few breaths, the surrounding abandoned buildings and ground would probably have been reduced to ruins instead of just having a few layers of skin scraped off.

After the turbulent blue storm disappeared, Li Mo, who was standing in place, looked around and saw a faint blue light reappear in the air. Then, one multiplied into ten, and ten into a hundred, and a large group of ice-blue butterflies appeared again!

"What is the purpose of the Killing Stone?"

Looking at the sky, Li Mo immediately guessed the correct answer.

"That's right! Your spells are indeed very powerful, but they are no match for the Killing Stone!"

Sanzu River and Hiro's voices echoed from the surroundings once more, their confidence and killing intent particularly evident.

Automatically imagining that Li Mo might be after the [Sesshoseki] in his possession, the mischievous Sanzukawa Kazuhiro, still in his childish phase, showed no mercy. Even though Li Mo had displayed considerable strength, it didn't frighten Sanzukawa Kazuhiro. Instead, it intensified his killing intent towards Li Mo. To revive his mother, Sanzukawa Kazuhiro didn't care about killing or anything else, but the [Sesshoseki] was the key to reviving his mother, and he couldn't allow any mishaps!

"I hate bratty kids! Especially bratty kids who have gained power!"

Seeing the swarm of ice-blue butterflies that had recovered in the blink of an eye, Li Mo shook his head slightly and muttered to himself.

Although Li Mo could explain it to Sanzu River and Hiro, Li Mo himself had to admit that he was not uninterested in the [Sesshoseki] of the Ga-Rei Zero world, so there was no need to explain it further to the brat who possessed the power.

The current problem cannot be solved by words alone; it must be resolved by who has the bigger fist!

Sanzu River and Hiro were not fools either. They took Li Mo, a powerful figure who was trying to seize the Killing Stone, very seriously. They noticed Li Mo's relaxed and carefree demeanor and did not think that Li Mo had become easier to deal with.

Anyone who isn't completely brain-dead, after witnessing the performance of that ice-blue butterfly, wouldn't think that ordinary methods could be used to deal with it. Li Mo's current calm and collected demeanor suggests either that he's gone mad and is preparing to commit suicide, or that he believes his abilities are sufficient to handle the situation.

Having witnessed Li Mo's powerful wind-based "magic," Sanzu River and Hiroshi certainly didn't think Li Mo was preparing to commit suicide!

[A sense of danger? How could that be? I'm already away from where I was...]

Seeing Li Mo's unhurried demeanor, Sanzu River and Hiroshi, peering through the butterfly's gaze, felt a strange sense of unease.

Logically speaking, with the power of the [Killing Stone] fragment, Sanzukawa and Hiroshi should not be in any danger by using the insect witch technique of avatar descent. At most, the ice-blue butterflies they spawned would all be wiped out. However, for some reason, seeing Li Mo's calm expression, a chilling feeling immediately welled up in Sanzukawa and Hiroshi's hearts!

"Go to hell!!!"

Amidst the anxious and fearful cries of Sanzu River and Hong, the ice-blue butterflies that were once again spawned formed a dense formation.

"You're the one who deserves to die!"

Li Mo's words, delivered with a certain rhythm, reached the ears of Sanzuhe and Hiro. Before the projected consciousness of Sanzuhe and Hiro could understand the meaning of Li Mo's words, they saw a phantom dragon shadow through the eyes of the ice-blue butterfly.

Roar! ! !

A silent roar enveloped the surrounding environment, and the difference in the essence of life caused ordinary people far away to shiver involuntarily.

Before Sanzu River and Hiro could react, they felt the ice-blue butterflies they had set up there instantly meet their annihilation!
