"Alright, you're from the Dragon Country, but you certainly have a way with words. As the saying goes, a fine bird chooses its tree to perch on. My Fusang is far more developed than your Dragon Country. Your decision to become a citizen of Fusang is the right one," said the Fusang gatekeeper, his eyes brimming with pride.
"Why distinguish between us? I already consider myself a man of Fusang. The old me is dead, and now I am reborn. My real name is Song Xiaotian, but I want to change it. What do you think of Musashi Kodan?" Song Xiaotian chuckled, having already forgotten his Dragon Country roots after just a few days.
But just as his words fell, a chilling voice suddenly echoed, "Since you want to be a man of Fusang, then you can die with them."
The unexpected words made both the Fusang gatekeeper and Song Xiaotian frown deeply.
The Fusang gatekeeper shouted, "Who's there? Who dares to speak such nonsense at the entrance of the Beichen Martial Arts School?"
Song Xiaotian suddenly sensed something and spun around. A figure had appeared behind him at some point, but it was shrouded in a Blood Mist, making it impossible to see clearly.
From within the Blood Mist, SWOOSH!
A Blood Glow suddenly slashed down.
"Ah!" The Fusang gatekeeper screamed as his body was neatly sliced in half. His organs shattered and spilled onto the ground in a gruesome, terrifying display.
"You're... the Martial Emperor?" Standing so close, Song Xiaotian could finally see the figure within the Blood Mist, and he cried out in disbelief. He never expected that with so many Onmyoji present at the Beichen Martial Arts School today, Wu Tian would still dare to show up, let alone start killing at the slightest disagreement.
Petrified, Song Xiaotian immediately begged for mercy. "For the sake of us both being from the Dragon Country, spare me this one time! I... I will change my ways, I swear!"
Hearing this, Wu Tian let out a cold sneer from within the Blood Mist. "From the Dragon Country? Didn't you just say you were going to become a man of Fusang?"
With that said, the Blood Glow slashed down again.
Song Xiaotian was dead.
The commotion at the entrance had already alerted those inside the Beichen Martial Arts School. But what of it? A cold, demonic smile curled on Wu Tian's lips.
"You worthless chickens and dogs, are you ready to be slaughtered?"
Wu Tian spoke softly, yet his voice resonated clearly in the ears of every single person inside the Beichen Martial Arts School. Arrogant. Domineering. With those words, he treated everyone present as if they were worthless trash. He was essentially asking them, 'You're all garbage. Are you ready for me to kill you?'
"How outrageous!"
"We may be weaker than him, but he has never experienced the Yin Yang Technique. How could he possibly know of its unpredictable nature?"
"He's so arrogant! Let's teach him a painful lesson!"
The Onmyoji were furious.
The second-in-command, Divine Mountain, was still calmly enjoying tea with Akiyama Youshi. After finishing his cup, Divine Mountain finally spoke. "I'll leave him to you. And my disciples from the Dragon Country, you may go as well to broaden your horizons."
By his posture, it was clear that Divine Mountain had no intention of intervening himself.
Akiyama Youshi thought this was only proper. He smiled and said, "As they say in the Dragon Country, 'Why use a butcher's knife to kill a chicken?' There's no need for you to trouble yourself with Wu Tian, Master Divine Mountain. They can handle it."
The other Onmyoji all nodded. They were bored anyway and saw this as a chance to toy with Wu Tian. They all walked out of the courtyard. As they went, some Onmyoji were even eagerly posting on a forum.
"Wu Tian has finally arrived."
"He's come here to die. After we're done, I'll report back on how miserably we Onmyoji taught him a lesson."
"Just give us three minutes. That's all we'll need to deal with him and send him fleeing in disgrace!"
They all remembered the Chief Minister's words before they left Fusang. "Wu Tian must die, but he must die under the Demon-Slayer of our Fusang's Sword Saint!"
