"It's laughable that heroes of our time like Fang Zong don't realize that all their efforts will turn to ashes when the Jade Pillar to Heaven is finally repaired..."
The Jade Emperor Zhang Bairen couldn't help but sigh, "Emperors and generals, the glory of a thousand years, are but a dream!"
A gentle breeze blew by, and the Tianyin Forest was serene. Flowers, green grass, and bamboo... it seemed like a perfect place to escape the world and live in seclusion. Where were the spectacular scenes of bloody battles for 'emperors and generals' and 'eternal glory'?
Fang Zong slumped over the table, propping himself up with his elbows, and drank himself into a stupor with Laozi while holding the wine jug.
Laozi's face was also flushed. He was pulling on his beard, and in his drunken state, he used too much force, pulling off a lot of his beard without even feeling the pain.
Suddenly, Fang Zong's body trembled, and he spat out a mouthful of blood...
"Fang Zong!"
Laozi quickly grabbed Fang Zong's wrist, took his pulse, and exclaimed in surprise, "Your avatar has been shattered!"
………………
"The land is so beautiful, attracting countless heroes to bow down."
Unfortunately, Qin Shi Huang and Emperor Wu of Han were slightly lacking in literary talent; Emperor Taizong of Tang and Emperor Taizu of Song were somewhat inferior in poetic flair.
Genghis Khan, the proud son of heaven, only knew how to bend his bow and shoot eagles.
All that is past; to find truly remarkable figures, look to... today!
Amidst the verdant mountains and drifting white clouds, the resounding chants were incredibly powerful, carrying ambition, hope, pride, and unparalleled heroism.
The Unforgiven Yasuo was no longer dressed in shabby clothes. He was wearing golden armor, holding a silver sword, and standing high in the sky looking down at a place in the deep mountains that was radiating golden light. Countless ghosts floated all over the mountains and fields, all besieging that 'golden light'.
"Fang... Zong!"
The Swift Wind Swordsman spat out a name viciously, then laughed loudly, speaking to himself in the Eastern language: "Fine, if Fang Zong hadn't torn me to pieces and turned me into a ghost, how could I have become the military spirit of the Japanese Grand Canal? If Fang Zong hadn't been able to deal with a nation's Grand Canal, how could the Japanese Grand Canal have granted me the authority to attack living people just because I have a grudge against Fang Zong? Fang Zong, you made me who I am. For this 'gratitude,' one day I will storm into the Eastern Kingdom, leave a million miles of desolation there, slaughter every single person in the Eastern Kingdom, and then finally kill you!"
I want you to watch helplessly as the Eastern Lands, like Japan, are teeming with demons at night!
"My lord!" someone said from the side.
A beautiful woman, entirely in ice-blue, floated over, staring at Yasuo with reverence: "My lord, according to intelligence, besides Japan, there are six other countries ruled by demons, but none of them agree with your decisions. The Snow Woman fears that someone will come to save Japan's underworld."
"Who will come? Who dares to come?"
Yasuo kept asking questions, displaying a powerful and confident demeanor.
In recent months, he has subdued all the demons and most of the yokai in Japan. Japan is a very chaotic country where gods and yokai are indistinguishable. Although it is said to have eight million gods, in reality, even the weakest demons and yokai are 'gods'. He looked at the Yuki-onna who was being respectful to him for a long time, then touched her cheek: "Don't worry, if anyone is causing trouble, there are only six people in the whole world who are qualified to cause trouble for me."
"May I ask, my lord, who are these six people?"
The Snow Woman's icy pupils betrayed her murderous intent; she wanted to kill anyone who opposed Yasuo.
"Six people, six people..." Yasuo sighed twice, then laughed, "Four of them won't oppose me for the time being. As for the other two, one is the Holy Angel Queen Kayle, who upholds justice and must dislike me. But her younger sister, the Fallen Angel Morgana, upholds indulgence in 'desire' and has always opposed her, making it impossible for her to completely control America. She's too busy to deal with everything."
"And what about the other person?"
"Eastern Kingdom's Vertical Alliance!"
When Fang Zong was mentioned, the hatred on Yasuo's face seemed to flow like water, but he couldn't help but laugh and say, "Although Fang Zong is powerful, it's a pity that he's only at the level of the third transformation of the Divine Power, the Netherworld Transformation, and his strength is also weak..."
According to intelligence, he can currently only create two avatars at most. His main body is stationed in the Tianyin Forest on the Loess Plateau of the Eastern Kingdom, where it can only purify the energy within its body, not increase its strength level. His avatar, Corpse Dog, is stationed in the south of the Eastern Kingdom, searching for and hiding powerful ghosts, while his avatar, Hidden Arrow, is stationed in the north of the Eastern Kingdom, doing the same thing… He simply doesn't have time to create multiple avatars, so they can't possibly be causing trouble for the main body.”
"In that case, I must congratulate you in advance on your rule over the entire Japanese island and your conquest of the world with millions of demons!"
The snow woman's eyes suddenly lit up, and she became excited, causing large snowflakes to fall around her.
According to Yasuo's plan, all he needs to do is destroy the underworld of Japan, and he can wipe out all the living people in Japan. At that time, the entire island will be filled with ghosts, and the army of hundreds of millions of ghosts will definitely be invincible in the whole world!
Yasuo also looked on with longing, then gazed at the golden light in the valley below, muttering, "Only you are left, the Onmyoji from the other world..."
Under the attacks of countless ghosts and monsters, the protective golden light gradually weakened, and a man and a woman emerged from the depths of the golden light.
The man, in his middle age, wore a wide robe and had a refined and otherworldly air about him.
The woman looked very young, no more than eighteen or nineteen years old, and was holding a swaddled baby in her arms...
"Yasuo, please give up, don't do this!" the woman cried out anxiously.
"stop!"
Yasuo shuddered and quickly stopped the ghosts. He flew over and stared at the woman with great sadness. "Hanako..." he whispered the woman's name.
Hanako nodded: "It's me, Yasuo. Please, please stop killing people!"
Why not kill them?
Yasuo roared, "Hanako, do you remember the war of the last century? Our samurai predecessors followed the Bushido spirit and died for the Emperor. But what about these Onmyoji? They all ran away faster than the last! In the end, when the Onmyoji became powerful, we samurai could only become their slaves... I, Yasuo, a man of integrity, only killed an Onmyoji apprentice who offended me, and you have to be handed over to Abe no Haru to live, to escape to the East, to survive!"
"But……"
"There's no 'but'!"
Yasuo sneered, "Once I destroy the Onmyoji, I can wipe out all of humanity in Japan. Japan will become a land of demons, a nation of soldiers, conquering the entire earth!"
"Are you crazy?" Hanako was stunned, staring at Yasuo in disbelief through the thin layer of protective golden light.
Yasuo continued to sneer.
And Hanako… Hanako suddenly grabbed the baby in her arms by the neck and screamed shrilly:
"Yasuo, you've abandoned even your own son?!"
