Just as the sun was about to sink into the forest, the two snapped out of their unusual tranquility. Suo jumped off the rock, dusted himself off, and without looking at Lu Ziyun, said:

"It's getting late, I have to go now, I'll come find you again next time."

Lu Ziyun remained silent, and of course, Suo had no expectations. Before sunset, he returned to the mountaintop villa, but at that moment, he suddenly remembered something and was greatly alarmed:

"Damn it, I forgot to sign a contract with him!"

Chapter 101: The Death of Lu Ziyun

When Suo went to find Lu Ziyun again, three months had passed. The reason for the long interval was that the snake secretly turned on the TV to watch Animal World in the middle of the night and saw something it shouldn't have seen. It immediately lost its powers and turned into its original form, causing the villa to be overcrowded.

Although it was Snake's fault, as a member of the family, So was forced to join the work of rebuilding the villa. By the time the villa was rebuilt, three months had passed.

It was thought that it would be difficult to find the famous Thor Lu Ziyun after three months, but when Suo returned to the village where he had last met him, Lu Ziyun was sitting at the entrance of the village, holding a strangely shaped stick in his hand.

Upon seeing Lu Ziyun, Suo was overjoyed. He quickly stepped forward and sat down beside him. Before he could speak, Lu Ziyun preemptively said:

"You made me wait for three months."

Upon hearing this, Suo was stunned. Looking at Lu Ziyun's extremely serious expression, Suo realized that Lu Ziyun regarded him as the only person he could confide in.

[I never imagined... I could become this kind of person.]

Suo smiled, braced himself on the rock beneath him, gazed at the sky, and said seemingly casually:

How have you been lately?

"It's alright, about the same as usual."

Lu Ziyun swayed his legs, and even at this moment, he still gripped the stick tightly in his hand, constantly infusing it with lightning spell power.

So noticed this and asked curiously:

"what is this?"

"This..."

Lu Ziyun raised her hand so that Suo could better observe the stick. It was just an ordinary iron rod. If there was anything different about it, it was that the iron rod was as thick as a forearm, so it would definitely hurt a lot if it hit someone.

Lu Ziyun introduced:

"I call it the Ruyi Stick because it is made of metal and can conduct lightning very well, so I store negative charges in it."

When fighting the enemy, you can take the opportunity to connect the Ruyi Staff, the enemy, and yourself in a straight line, so that you can launch a sure-hit attack without injecting negative charge into the enemy's body.

While it's not as effective as directly injecting a negative charge into the enemy's body, its advantage lies in its element of surprise.

Hearing this, Suo was surprised that Lu Ziyun had so easily revealed her trump card. He stared at Lu Ziyun, who seemed to see through his thoughts and simply said:

"It doesn't matter. In a close battle, such an attack intention is too easy to detect."

Suo breathed a sigh of relief and began chatting with Lu Ziyun about random things. Before they knew it, they were talking about their plans for the future.

Lu Ziyun's opinion on this matter is:

"I stayed here specifically to wait for you. After you leave, I'll probably leave too. I've said it before, I have nothing left but this power."

Upon hearing this, Suo frowned:

"Leave here? Where can you go then?"

Lu Ziyun didn't answer the question. Instead, he looked at the flock of birds flying overhead and said something completely out of place:

"Did you know? Birds don't have homes."

Upon hearing this, Suo knew perfectly well that the bird Lu Ziyun was referring to was himself. Birds don't have homes because they have to migrate with the changing climate. He was saying this to express that he had come to regard challenging the strong as part of his life.

Realizing this might be the last time he saw Lu Ziyun, Suo finally revealed the purpose of his visit:

"Actually, I came to find you not just to chat. What I want to tell you is that I want to make a contract with you so that I can give you a second life sometime after you die."

So deliberately avoided saying "resurrection," fearing that Lu Ziyun would react violently upon hearing those words and demand that he resurrect her long-dead childhood sweetheart.

Fortunately, Lu Ziyun had already come to terms with it. He didn't mention Qingmei and readily agreed to Suo's request.

"Since we're about to part ways, I don't have anything to give you. Since you want to sign a contract, I agree. Consider it a thank you for listening to my nonsense."

Upon hearing this, Suo was somewhat surprised, yet it also seemed reasonable. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something more, but was interrupted by Lu Ziyun.

he asks:

Do you drink alcohol?

Faced with this abrupt question, Suo hesitated and shook his head. It wasn't that he didn't like drinking, but Lu Ziyun didn't look wealthy at all, so the wine she bought was probably cheap and murky.

Having grown accustomed to fine sake, why would he drink cloudy sake? To avoid such an awkward situation, he simply refused outright.

"That's great, actually I don't really like drinking either." Lu Ziyun smiled, as if she had won a victory.

So was puzzled by this:

"Since you don't drink, why are you asking me if I do?"

Lu Ziyun was a little embarrassed:

"In those stories, I always see samurai drinking before parting, as it shows their heroism and longing. But nowadays, the way of the samurai has declined, and drinking has only harmed the body."

Suo frowned slightly:

"Then why did you ask me to drink?"

Lu Ziyun smiled but didn't say anything.

The two began to enjoy a moment of peace. Before the sun set, Lu Ziyun was the first to get up. He dusted himself off and said to Suo:

"Alright, last time I saw you leave, this time you see me leave. Goodbye, and don't forget our promise."

The agreement here, of course, refers to the fact that after Lu Ziyun's death, Suo would turn his corpse into a cursed object so that he could be resurrected in the future; it could also be simply called collecting the corpse.

Suo nodded, waved to Lu Ziyun, then turned around with satisfaction and walked towards the forest where the sun had set.

The thin figure walked further and further away, its shadow growing longer and longer. For some reason, looking at Lu Ziyun's back was like looking at a walking corpse.

Suo Xiang: Perhaps the real Lu Ziyunyi has already died along with the people she cherished, and what lives on now is just an obsession with the name Lu Ziyunyi.

Suo didn't dwell on it. He shook his head, and once Lu Ziyun's figure had completely disappeared from his sight, he stood up from the rock, dusted himself off, and headed home.

After that, Suo could still hear legends about "Thor". Since that separation, Lu Ziyun had completely given himself to the obsession in his heart. He kept challenging the strong. The once naive boy became obsessive and proud in battle after battle. It seemed that only fighting could give his life value.

In the end, Lu Ziyun died. He was not killed by his enemies, but by the passage of time. Before his death, he was still recognized as the strongest sorcerer in the Edo period. But after his death, someone cut his body in half and said: "The Thunder God is nothing more than this."

Suo retrieved Lu Ziyun's body and turned it into a cursed object. His life did not change much because of this. He had seen far more than just Lu Ziyun. He had seen and known too many people. If he had to grieve every time someone died, Suo would probably live in sorrow every day.

As Lu Ziyun once said, it is meaningless to weep for the dead...

Chapter 102: Two-Faced Sukuna's Limited-Time Resurrection

During the Edo period, besides Shikiichi, who was known as the strongest Thunder God, there was also the Stone Flow Dragon, known as the [Giant Cannon], the strongest spell power output.

Shi Liulong originally wanted to challenge Lu Ziyun, who was the strongest, but unfortunately, one was in Sendai in Kanto and the other in Kansai. Due to the backward transportation environment, the two never met in their lifetime.

After Lu Ziyun's death, Suo naturally set his sights on this strongest spell power outputter. Because of the long distance, Suo specially asked Amelia for a short leave before traveling all the way to Kansai, wanting to sign a contract with Shi Liulong.

But to everyone's surprise, after seeing Suo, Shi Liulong immediately started bombarding him with his magic cannon without saying a word. The battle between the two destroyed an entire block before Suo fled in a sorry state.

Afterwards, Suo couldn't help but complain:

[Who's the real martial arts fanatic here? I wasn't treated like this when I first met Lu Ziyun, why are you so temperamental?]

After careful consideration, she realized that in order to sign a contract with Shi Liulong, she had to subdue him with her strength. However, given her strength, it would be quite difficult for her to defeat Shi Liulong, who was known for having the strongest spell power output, head-on.

After all, Suo lacked the means to deal with the Stone Flow Dragon. If it came to using underhanded tactics, Suo had a hundred ways to kill the Stone Flow Dragon.

Unfortunately, Suo only came to make a contract with him. Killing Shi Liulong would be putting the cart before the horse. So how do we subdue Shi Liulong?

After thinking for a moment, a majestic figure suddenly appeared in his mind: a four-eyed, four-armed, two-faced Su Nuo.

Suo happens to be carrying the Su Nuo Finger. If an ordinary person were to eat the Su Nuo Finger, with Su Nuo's strength, how could he not defeat Shi Liulong?

Thinking of this, Suo immediately grabbed a passerby, pinched his mouth, and forcibly shoved that long, black thing inside.

After swallowing his finger with a "glug," the passerby coughed, took two steps back, and cried out in surprise:

"What did you feed me?!"

The moment the words left his mouth, the look of terror on his face froze, and then black runes began to appear, indicating that the King of Curses, Ryoumen Sukuna, had taken over his body.

Suddenly having a body, Su Nuo, who was still in a daze in the realm of birth, was a little uncomfortable. He quickly looked around and immediately focused his gaze on the girl in front of him, or more precisely, on the stitches on the girl's forehead.

"Suo?"

Su Nuo asked, but his tone was absolutely certain.

Without beating around the bush, Sue quickly explained the current situation and then made a request:

"Therefore, I would like to ask Ryomen Sukuna to help me subdue the Stone Dragon. I will reward you handsomely afterward."

Hearing this, Su Nuo snorted coldly, her two scarlet pupils staring straight at Suo, the indifference in them sending chills down Suo's spine.

"Do you remember what you told me? You said you would take me to see the world of my dreams, but now, it seems you're using me as a henchman? It seems you haven't realized your place yet."

Upon hearing this, the temperature around them seemed to drop several degrees, and feeling a shiver run through his very soul, Suo sighed inwardly:

[Damn it, not only did I fail to deal with Shi Liulong, I've also created a living father for myself.]

Just as Su Nuo was trying to fool him and take back his finger when Su Nuo wasn't paying attention, Su Nuo finally noticed the strange clothes Su was wearing.

A long black dress, a white apron, a lace headdress, and a black scarf—this was clearly a maid's outfit. In Su Nuo's memory, he had only ever seen this style of clothing on Amelia. Seeing it on Suo now gave him a strange feeling:

"Have you seen Teacher...Amelia?"

"Anmiria?"

Upon hearing this name from Su Nuo, Suo was taken aback at first, but after realizing that Su Nuo was confirming his stance, he quickly nodded:

"We've not only met, we've lived together for about six hundred years."

Six hundred years?!

Upon hearing this, Su Nuo, unusually, showed a shocked expression. He stared at Suo in disbelief, not asking, "Has it been that long already?" but instead gritting his teeth and asking:

"What's your relationship?"

Seeing that Su Nuo was acting strangely, Suo had no choice but to tell the truth:
