"So this is the Shihouin family's heirloom Zanpakuto? It really is..."

Ru Yueming examined the blade, looking at it from left to right, and finally came to a conclusion.

"Quite ordinary."

Hearing this, Yoruichi rolled her eyes at him, took back the Zanpakuto that the Shihouin family treasured, and explained:

"The Heavenly Gift is not much different from other Zanpakuto."

"The only difference is that it doesn't require the infusion of soul essence; it can be used as long as it gains approval."

Upon hearing this, Ruyueming immediately shook her head and sighed.

Just now, the two of them struggled for quite a while in the Zanpakuto space before finally managing to return their consciousness to their bodies.

Of course, if the two of them hadn't killed the Thunder Beast on the spot, they could have saved themselves a lot of trouble...

After this incident, Ru Yueming finally understood what had happened.

The Heavenly Soldiers sensed a potential threat in the Soul Society and, in order to protect themselves, chose to isolate themselves and refuse any form of communication.

However, the Shihouin family members were unaware of this, so they tried various methods to revive it, but unfortunately, none of them worked.

Until Ruyueming appeared.

Even the divinely gifted soldier probably didn't expect that someone would be able to forcibly break through its self-imposed isolation.

His method of waking up his Zanpakuto through a ritual was simple, direct, and very effective.

The whole process is like forcibly breaking into someone's house, rushing in and giving the homeowner a good beating, and then threatening them before leaving.

If you don't agree, I'll come every day from now on!

After a series of actions, Tiancibing knelt down decisively, acknowledging both of them at once and promising that he would never have any ulterior motives.

As for the damaged Thunder Beast, there's no need to worry about it.

As long as the Zanpakuto's blade is not damaged, it will re-form after a period of time.

Yoruichi, upon learning the truth, sighed deeply for a long time.

I thought my family's divinely bestowed weapon was mysterious, noble, and had a long history, completely different from those flashy and cheap weapons outside.

Unexpectedly, the final truth was even worse than them.

He gave in immediately after a beating; he has absolutely no backbone.

Just as Yoruichi put away her Heavenly Weapon, she suddenly noticed that Akira was fiddling with his Zanpakuto, his eyes full of scrutiny.

"I'm thinking……"

Noticing the strange looks from the side, Ru Yueming raised her head and analyzed seriously:

"Yosuichi, you said..."

"Is the reason I can't find out the true name of my Zanpakuto because I'm not ruthless enough?"

Upon hearing this, Yoruichi fell silent.

She realized she couldn't quite keep up with Ru Yueming's train of thought.

She quickly explained, "You can't apply the example of a Heavenly Gifted Beast to other Zanpakuto. Normally, you should eat and sleep with it, and then have a spiritual dialogue with it..."

As she spoke, she suddenly realized that Ruyue Ming's gaze towards her Zanpakuto was becoming increasingly dangerous.

That kid didn't listen to a word she said!

Just as the two were talking, the darkness that had enveloped the entire ancestral hall receded like a tide, revealing its original colors.

boom!

The shrine's main gate was smashed open, and the imposing figure of Ōmaeda Kinosugu cast a long shadow under the sunlight.

"Lord Yoruichi, it's good that you're alright..."

Sensing a sudden burst of intense heat behind him, as if a sun were radiating heat outwards, Xi Zhijin broke out in a cold sweat and quickly moved aside to clear a path.

Soon, the spacious ancestral hall was filled with worried members of the Shihōin family.

Just as everyone was asking Yoruichi about her condition, the girl suddenly raised the divine weapon in her hand, attracting everyone's attention.

"I have gained the approval of the Heavenly Gifted Soldier!"

Seeing this, everyone was shocked and was about to ask what had happened.

Yoruichi reached out and pulled Ruyueming close to her, saying solemnly:

"All of this is thanks to his help!"

The group looked around and found that everyone else's faces were also full of confusion.

They had absolutely no recollection of the unfamiliar young man dressed in the robes of a palace official.

Yoruichi placed her hands on his shoulders and introduced him earnestly:

"Zhenyang Spiritual Arts Academy is reborn as bright as the moon!"

Under the scrutiny of countless eyes, Ru Yueming suddenly felt immense pressure.

The presence of two extremely fierce gazes in the crowd made him feel like he was being pricked by needles, and he was sweating profusely.

"Heh, heh heh, hello everyone..."

After a dry greeting, Ru Yueming swallowed hard and looked at the bald, imposing old man in the crowd:

"Long time no see, you're still as dashing as ever, Captain..."

Thank you to Lin Shang Haha asd for the generous donation.

Chapter 75 Going Astray Like the Bright Moon

First team.

Captain's office.

Yamamoto sized up the boy standing in the center of the room with an unfriendly expression, his eyes filled with scrutiny and contemplation.

It had only been a few days since he last gave Ruyue Ming his instructions, and in the blink of an eye, this guy had caused such a huge mess.

This inevitably makes it difficult to control the soaring blood pressure.

Although the outcome was good, young Ruyue Ming had no idea what kind of vortex she had been drawn into.

You seem quite happy.

After a long silence, Yamamoto spoke in a low voice, his slightly closed eyes slowly lifting to reveal a glimmer of light.

Before Ru Yueming could reply, he continued:

"He assisted the current head of the Shihōin family in gaining the approval of the Heavenly Gifted Weapon, reversed the decline of the Shihōin family, gained the approval of his friends, and became a great benefactor to everyone in the Shihōin family."

Upon hearing this, Ruyue Ming frowned, realizing that Yamamoto had another meaning behind his words.

"The struggles between nobles are far more complex than you think."

Yamamoto continued, "If the previous assassination attempts were due to the amulet disrupting the course of the war, then the Shihōin incident has completely placed you on the opposite side of certain forces."

He had already read about Ruyueming's information back when he was in the Spirit Arts Academy.

Later, due to Hirako Shinji's report, he paid even more attention to him.

If he were to give his evaluation, he would say that he is indeed a genius. In less than half a year as an insei, he has already gained the strength of a vice-captain. Looking at the history of Soul Society, there are few people with better talent than Tsukimi.

Unfortunately, their actions were too impulsive and lacked necessary consideration.

Ru Yueming still has a long way to go to become a truly independent individual.

Without a proper guiding light, he is very likely to go astray.

Upon hearing this, Ru Yueming seemed to be deep in thought.

It turns out that he had been involved in the factional struggles among the nobility for a long time.

He thought that by refusing Kuchiki Sōjun's kindness, he could completely extricate himself from the power struggle.

Looking back now, I realize I was still too young.

"What should I do..."

Ru Yueming's old face fell. "Is it too late to sever ties with the Shihōin family?"

He's not someone who's afraid of trouble, but who likes too much trouble?

While previous assassinations didn't pose much of a threat to him, if they happened every few days, it would be incredibly annoying.

"It's too late," Yamamoto said calmly.

Ru Yueming sighed heavily.

Unexpectedly, before he could even be discharged from the hospital, he was already being labeled with a political affiliation. He could already imagine how distressing his future life would be.

Life is tough, the young man sighed.

So, what would Sousuke have done?

Thinking of this, Ru Yueming began to ponder.

Seeing that there was no sound for a long time, Yamamoto, who was still waiting for Ruyueming to ask for help, looked over in confusion, only to find that the boy standing in the center of the room had entered a state of distraction.

He was completely lost in thought, not paying any attention to the present moment.

Upon seeing this, veins bulged on Yamamoto's shiny forehead, and his fists hardened slightly.

Seemingly sensing the murderous intent, Ruyueming suddenly came to her senses and looked at Yamamoto, asking:

"Captain, you said that since we've already started down this path, there's no turning back."

Yamamoto nodded, not denying the claim.

But Ru Yueming's next words refreshed his understanding of the bottom line once again.

"Instead of constantly changing course, it's better to stick to one path and go all the way."

"Yoruichi asked me before if I wanted to marry into the Shihouin family. I think it's not too late for me to agree now!"
