There is nothing wrong with the training method of the Justice Messenger

He immediately activated the light cannon and shot out a stream of light in an effort to break the form that had transformed into the Supreme Dao of Dalian Temple into pieces.

But he was still a step too slow. The big hand of Lord Taishan had already grabbed the talisman paper that had transformed into another Da Lian Temple Zhidao, and quickly retracted it, causing the light cannon to miss.

The ritual has been completed. The Lord of Mount Tai responded to the call and followed Li Nian's order to capture the soul of the dead... Part of it returned to the underworld, but it was considered that the order was completed. After the big hand retracted the gate of the underworld, the portal closed and disappeared.

A technique that had already been formed and was sure to hit the target was dealt with just like that.

Li Nian, however, had some respect for Dalian Temple Zhidao. He knew that Dalian Temple Zhidao was not using a so-called substitute, but was using part of his real soul to take over the soul-binding technique that he performed in the name of Lord Taishan.

"That's right, you are a completely crazy researcher. It's only natural that you would consider yourself a better research subject and experimental material before anyone else. You have eaten ghosts and merged with them. You dare to cut your own soul at will. You are nothing. I didn't expect that this was my stupidity."

As expected of someone who has studied the Taishan Lord Ceremony for his entire life, Dalian Temple Zhidao's understanding of this god, Taishan Lord, is better than his own. It was a bit presumptuous of Li Nian to want to use this god to judge him.

Dalian Temple Zhidao's aura was weak at this time, and his spirit was even more unstable, and it was obvious that it was flickering constantly. It was obvious that splitting his soul was not a price he could easily bear. He was originally a spirit, and this action was equivalent to directly losing a part of himself.

It seems that the only way to save him is to physically liberate him.

Li Nian was about to continue his attack, but Dalian Temple Zhidao, who saw his intention, shook his head.

"Master Li is really amazing. Just playing with you has cost me half my life. Please forgive me for my incompetence. I can't afford to play with you. I can only take my leave here."

He lost the initiative, and all his spells were destroyed by the two light cannons. He was still blocked and could not use any spells. He was definitely no match for the enemy in close combat, and he was also hit by Li Nian's soul-binding technique. He had to lose part of his soul. If the fight continued, he, Zhidao of Dalian Temple, would surely be the one to die.

"Run? Can you run away?"

"Lord Li may think that without the help of Yato God, this barrier can stop me, but in fact, I could have left at the very beginning." Dalian Temple Zhidao said, and suddenly broke into the shop next door.

Li Nian immediately dodged and chased after him, but saw that Daliansi Zhidao had already crashed into a full-length mirror, leaving only one sentence: "Give a message to Suzuka for me, tell her to think it over carefully." The mirror rippled like the surface of a lake, causing him to sink into it and rush out, just like when he came.

Although he entered the sealed world through the mirror, the mirror was not the portal left by Li Nian. The ability of Dalian Temple Zhidao to use the mirror as a means to leave the sealed world was his own ability. It was a technique that used the mirror as a bridge to connect the two worlds.

Li Nian was stunned, and then he understood that when Dalian Temple Zhidao entered Fengjue, he was not like the monsters who were completely in the dark and knew nothing. Instead, he saw from the beginning that the Fengjue world and the outside world were one and the same, and he had a way to leave as a magician.

He was willing to stay in the seal and fight with me, probably just to see my skills as a wizard and "exchange spells" with me.

Li Nian left Feng Jue immediately and appeared in the same room, but he could no longer see Daliansi Zhidao, Tengqi and Yatoshin. They had all disappeared. It was estimated that Tengqi had already run away. Daliansi Zhidao should have come out from the direction where the mirror was in the real world, and he was estimated to have run away at this time.

Only Suzuka was still sitting there, reading the information. When he saw Li Nian appear in his original position, he knew that he had finished fighting with that person, so he raised his head and asked, "Did you beat that guy?"

Li Nian shook his head: "Sorry, I couldn't kill it. It ran away. My Feng Jue couldn't stop Dalian Temple Zhidao."

"I also knew that he would be able to run away." Suzuka seemed not surprised at all that the man had the means to escape. She had not expected Li Nian to be able to kill the guy so easily. She asked, "I'm asking if you beat him to pieces."

"…They just opened a few holes in his body and forced him to give away half of his soul?"

"Well done." Suzuka smiled broadly, and the anger in her heart was released, and she felt much better.

Li Nian took a long breath and sat down on the sofa. He remembered what Daliansi Zhidao had said before he left and asked, "Is the information useful?"

"Yeah, it's very useful. I feel like my success rate in implementing the Taishan Fujun Festival has increased."

"...Before leaving, Dalian Temple Zhidao asked me to tell you that you'd better think it over carefully. What did he mean?"

"…I have already thought it through. I don't need him to remind me."

Chapter 449: In? Killing people? Take me with you!

"That's right. I just want to call my close ones to my side. There's no need to think too much about such a natural thought and action."

Li Nian didn't think there was anything to be afraid of. He thought that Dalian Temple Zhidao was reminding Suzuka that performing forbidden techniques would attract punishment from the Onmyoji Bureau: "Are you worried about the Onmyoji Bureau? Well, since it's a forbidden technique, you will definitely not escape being spanked by Tenruo-sama if it's exposed."

It was obvious that she had been spanked before. The vivid image flashed through Suzuka's mind. She shuddered and subconsciously touched her own butt. It was obvious that she had been spanked and it hurt a lot.

"Although that's not what I'm thinking about...but the situation you described is pretty scary. If Panda Eyes finds out, I guess it won't just be a spanking..."

"...Then you'll just have to bear with it. But as for the technique itself, I really don't understand how much harm it can cause."

Li Nian pondered, "It was designated as a forbidden technique because the Taishan Fujun Festival that was performed once disturbed the spiritual veins of all Japan, causing instability in the spiritual veins of the whole country, and caused a large number of spiritual disasters, so it was banned. But you said that there were other reasons, not just a simple summoning of souls. I am also puzzled. A technique that manipulates the soul is only intended to summon the soul of a mere person. How could such a Taishan Fujun Festival cause a spiritual disaster of that scale? The wizards at that time definitely did not perform any summoning techniques when performing the Taishan Fujun Festival. Your purpose is much simpler and purer than theirs. It is really just to summon your brother's soul. To perform the ritual field of the Taishan Fujun Festival and build a stable and long-term connection with the divinity, you need to borrow the power of the spiritual veins, but the worst case scenario of the ritual failing is to blow up a mountain. What is there to be afraid of?"

"...Don't you think blowing up a mountain is pretty serious?"

"That's considering the worst-case scenario."

"Don't worry, I don't even intend to cause a disaster by blowing up a piece of land, let alone a mountain. " Suzuka waved the information in his hand to him: "As long as the Taishan Fujun Festival can be successfully carried out, the worst case scenario is actually..."

She suddenly stopped talking.

"Ah? What is it?"

"Nothing, I mean if it succeeds there won't be any worst-case scenario."

Suzuka avoided the question.

Li Nian glanced at her for a while. She avoided Li Nian's sight and dared not look directly at him. Li Nian knew that she was hiding something from him, so he only asked, "Are you sure it won't cause any major harm, right? I've made it clear to you. If it's a ritual that will cause any major disaster, I will never agree to it. If you lie to me about this, don't think that 80 million will be enough to get away with it."

“…I need to pay extra?”

"Who do you think I am?" Li Nian said helplessly, "Even if you don't want money, I will stop you, understand?"

"Oh, a guy who is paid to be my servant, I didn't realize how determined you are." Suzuka turned around, still in the mood to joke with Li Nian, and suddenly became serious. This time, he dared to look Li Nian in the eye: "I swear, I will never cause any trouble to the world. Don't underestimate me. I will clean up the mess I have done. I will not involve irrelevant people, and I will not leave any mess to cause trouble to others."

"That's no problem." Li Nian was just asking. It wasn't that he really didn't trust Suzuka. If he didn't trust her, he wouldn't have followed her in the beginning. As for the secret... Suzuka was hiding something from him. Li Nian knew it from the beginning, but he never intended to delve into it.

It's normal for people to have some secrets and not want to talk about them. As long as it's not something that will bring about any disaster, it's not something Li Nian intends to get involved in.

Suzuka is a kid who won't hurt anyone. This is what Li Nian is sure of more than anything else.

Suzuka put away the information. She couldn't finish reading it all at once. She had to take it back and read it carefully and verify it. At this time, she didn't want to discuss the topic of Taishan Fujun Festival with Li Nian anymore. She was in a good mood because she got the information... and she also wanted to make the guy named Dalian Temple Zhidao who was beaten by Li Nian flee in panic, and she took a good revenge.

She knew that Li Nian would not lie about the battle. She said that he had opened a hole in the man's body and split his soul. That was what he had done. She only regretted that she could not see the miserable state of that bastard with her own eyes in that sealed room.

"But why did you attack that person?" Suzuka's eyes flickered. She was not asking Li Nian with doubt, but with expectation, seeking the answer she wanted from him.

She felt that Li Nian was standing up for her today.

Li Nian laughed and said, "You have to do your job after you get paid. If the sponsor is bullied, the watchdog has to get her back. This is professional ethics."

"Who says they are watchdogs..."

"Labor is glorious. What's wrong with being a watchdog?" Li Nian doesn't have that kind of unnecessary pride. It is natural to take money from others to help them get rid of disasters. He earns money in a clear way and he is quite proud of it.

"...You are such a humble person. Sometimes I feel that this is not a good thing. But, is it just for money?" Suzuka was a little dissatisfied with this answer: "You seem to want to kill him. You look very angry. For whom?"

"That kind of person deserves to be killed." Li Nian restrained his playful expression and showed his disgust without disguising it. "What I hate most is people who don't take human life seriously. They are selfish and self-interested, stupid and arrogant. They don't care about other people and can't see the loveliness and preciousness of ordinary life. It's ok for them to be blind, but they also think they are superior and wantonly manipulate and play with life. When I see such a guy, I want to smash his head to see if the structure is different from others."

The tone was calm, yet filled with murderous intent. It was the first time that Dalian Temple Zhidao saw Li Nian in this state. Although the answer she got was not what she wanted, it made her understand what this person was fighting for. She suddenly understood why he was so powerful, but never put on airs in front of mortals, and didn't care so much about his identity as an exorcist. It turned out that in his eyes, all beings were equal, and he himself was no exception.

"I didn't realize you have such a high level of thinking."

"Maybe it's too low." Li Nian held his head and laughed again: "I was born into a peasant family. Even if I become rich and powerful, I still have the thinking circuits of ordinary people. I can't change it in this lifetime."

"You're fine like this."

"It's a pity that we failed to kill Dalian Temple Zhidao, but he probably won't dare to show up in front of you and me during this period of time, so you can rest assured for the time being." Li Nian said, "You seemed to be uneasy for a while because of his existence, but that was unnecessary. It's obvious that he doesn't have much interest in you. He is a ruthless guy. Your value to him is only in studying the Taishan Mansion Lord Sacrifice. If you are unwilling to help him with the research, then he doesn't care about you. You don't have to worry about him plotting against you."

After fighting with this Dalian Temple Zhidao, Li Nian had a clear feeling that this was a person who was extremely devoted to Taoism. After his death, he became a spirit, and his obsession became even deeper. He has completely turned into a crazy researcher, only interested in knowledge and spells. Today he stayed only to see his magic, and it was obvious that he was more interested in himself than in Suzuka.

Li Nian's words were harsh, but Suzuka, who knew Dalian Temple Zhidao's character well, understood that he was just that kind of person: "I don't care what that bastard thinks..." Suzuka blinked at Li Nian, "Besides, today I know that my bodyguard can easily beat him to death, so there's no need to be afraid."

It’s not that easy.

Li Nian shook her head.

"Don't underestimate him. He is indeed a very powerful wizard. After his death, he merged with a ghost and became a very powerful monster. As a wizard, he can control spiritual power more freely with his spirit body and has more original power to use. The ghost that merged with him should have given him some special abilities. His original body can also be regarded as a great monster."

Dalian Temple Zhidao lost the fight because he made an error in judgement and was unable to deploy any tactics when bombarded by two light cannons. He had to either successfully crack his technique and destroy his light cannon, or summon a powerful Shikigami before that and launch some powerful technique to form a tighter offensive and have the means to deal with the light cannon... Li Nian also had other ways to deal with him.

In terms of compatibility, Li Nian does not think that Dalian Temple Zhidao is a greater threat than Tsuchigumo.

But this does not mean that Dalian Temple Zhidao is not strong. Li Nian also thinks that he is a very powerful wizard. If he was not facing him alone, he would have a helper, such as Yatoshen who chose to stand by his side today and cooperate with Fujiki. The three of them could deal with him together. Just imagine that situation, Li Nian would find it difficult.

On the way out, Li Nian shared all this information with Suzuka, asking her to be on guard. It was obvious that Suzuka was nervous before, so telling her not to worry was one thing, but asking her to be more vigilant was another.

The girl indeed seemed much more relaxed, and she talked and laughed with Li Nian along the way. She looked much better than before when she was full of worries and anxiety.

"Now that we have the information, when will the ceremony officially begin?"

"After the school festival." Suzuka smiled at Li Nian, "During the school festival, you must accompany me throughout the whole process. I want to have some fun in the little time left."

"What? You really want to have fun. Why don't you and your sister have a good time together after your brother comes back?" Li Nian said with a smile, with a beautiful vision.

Suzuka also imagined such a scene, but for some reason she seemed to feel a sense of loss, and murmured.

"...Yeah, it would be nice if it could be like this."

……

……

The next day, Li Nian came to school and went to find Nura Rikuo at noon.

Fujiki had mentioned before that the Nura group was planning to go to Kyoto, and Li Nian wanted to ask Lu Sheng what the situation was.

Lu Sheng was in the same class as Kanda and Aoyama. Li Nian had informed Kanda from the beginning. When he came to find him at noon, Bingli was standing behind Lu Sheng, chatting with Kanda and Aoyama.

They were also talking about Li Nian. Lu Sheng curiously asked about Li Nian's two roommates, their daily life in Sakurasou, and Li Nian's usual appearance, so Kanda and Aoyama picked out the "talkable" things to tell him.

Bingli was listening nearby and felt that the two men were not describing the powerful man she knew, so she asked curiously, "Does Lord Li really feel like that on a daily basis?"

"grown ups?"

"Uh, no, I mean classmate Li Nian." Bingli hurriedly changed the topic. Lu Sheng always asked her to be careful with her words at school, and she just subconsciously addressed that adult like that.

Bingli and Lu Sheng did not reveal their identities as monsters in class. They usually disguised themselves as students. However, it was not the first time that they behaved strangely. There were some strange things in their words and actions. It was just that they used the wrong verbal address, which did not make Kanda and Nanami think too much about it.

"Although I don't know why, his reputation in school has become strange. People say that he is entangled with women, has connections with the underworld, and will kill people he hates. He seems like an aggressive villain." Kanda thought that Bingli had a bad impression of Li Nian because of those rumors, and seriously defended him, "But those are all false, don't believe them."

Lu Sheng and Bing Li looked at each other: "..."

"Yes, Li Nian is really not like that." Qingshan agreed. He also didn't like those ridiculous rumors about Li Nian. When someone talked to them about it, he always tried hard to help Li Nian clarify it. This time was no exception: "He actually cares about his friends, is easy to talk to, helps you without hesitation, and knows a lot of things. He is a very good person."

"I seem to hear someone saying I'm handsome behind my back." Li Nian walked into their class with a smile and walked up to them: "That's so embarrassing, you can obviously say it to my face."

"Ah, the people are here." Kanda smiled and waved at Li Nian.

"Qingshan, did you eat well at noon?" Li Nian took a look at the lunch box in Qingshan's hand and decided to prepare a lunch box for himself. He would prepare lunch in the morning and also make extra food for Qingshan: "If you lose weight, I will be very troubled."

Qingshan smiled brightly. She had praised the boy's kindness before because she had benefited greatly from him. At this moment, she was eating a lunch box prepared by a master chef. It was a luxurious Chinese meal. The aroma wafted everywhere, making people salivate. After hearing what Li Nian said, she couldn't help but laughed and scolded, "Your wish is too bad. But every time you cook it so deliciously, I feel like I'm really going to get fat. It's all your fault then."

"Then I would rather be unforgivable." Li Nian waved his hand and winked at Lu Sheng: "Everyone, enjoy your wonderful lunch. I'll borrow Lu Sheng. I need to find him if I need anything."

Lu Sheng had not yet revealed his identity as a monster in front of his classmates, and Kanda and Aoyama didn't know about it either. Li Nian understood too well Lu Sheng's desire to live a peaceful life, so naturally he didn't intend to say anything casually. He just called Lu Sheng away as if he was chatting with a friend.

Bingli wanted to follow, but was stopped by Lu Sheng, who smiled and patted her shoulder.

When they reached the secluded corridor outside, Li Nian casually cast a barrier with invisibility and soundproofing effects and went straight to the point.

"I heard that you guys from Nura clan want to go to Kyoto to find Yuyuko?"

Nura Rikuo frowned, not knowing where Li Nian heard the news from, but then he thought that it was Amanaka Kiyomi who told him, so he nodded.

"That's what happened."

"what's the situation?"

"You don't know what's going on?"

"I don't know. I just heard that you guys are going to Kyoto to find that fox. Are you going to kill her? Can you take me with you?"

"..." Lu Sheng looked at Li Nian who was rubbing his hands excitedly. He really didn't know why Qingshan and Kanda felt that this person was not an aggressive villain.

Chapter 450: Lu Sheng's Thoughts and Concerns

Then Lu Sheng shook his head.

"You're mistaken. I'm not going to fight?"

"What?" Li Nian was puzzled. "You, the Nura Clan, went to Kyoto to find Yuyuko, not to fight?"

"Now that you put it like that, I don't really believe it myself." Lu Sheng smiled. He originally thought that Li Nian had heard the news from Master Tianruo, but now it seems that he was wrong. Although he didn't know where his specific source of information was, he understood that this person had some misunderstandings about the matter. He explained: "We are going to Kyoto to find Yuyuko... and talk to the parents of the monsters."

Li Nian was stunned and silent for a while. After thinking about it, he understood that it was about what Lord Tenruo had discussed with Nura Rikuo when he went to the Nura group before, about the alliance merger of various monsters.

Originally, it was Yuyuko who was pushing forward, and it seemed that they were going to gather in Kyoto soon to hold a joint discussion among the high-level monsters.

It seems that the Nura clan was also invited, and this is what they were going to discuss there.

After he figured it out, he snorted and sneered. He didn't think that even if it was the case, there was nothing wrong with his understanding: "Then what? There's no need to fight? It's as if you enemies can really settle it in a few words. If you don't fight, you'll lose a few heads and die. Can it proceed peacefully and end cleanly? I don't believe it."

Lu Sheng nodded: "I think so too."

The leader of the Nura Group naturally knew what the nature of the monsters was like. Their Nura Group had always abided by the rules, requiring the monsters under them to live well and coexist harmoniously with humans. They were considered to be a very peaceful group among the monsters. Even so, none of them had less ferocious nature than a monster. They were all loyal, reckless and warlike guys.

Even the Nura Group's own high-level meetings are conducted in the midst of cursing, and it is common for the gangsters to roll up their sleeves and start hacking each other.
