Chapter 1143 cruel reality and regret
"Little kid, I want you to see with your own eyes how I killed that woman, hahahahaha..." Mr. Ueda, who turned into a resentful spirit and Shikigami, was proud and arrogant. Perhaps it had already experienced the benefits of "powerful" power to it before.
"I don't think you know what 'watching the sky in a well' is. You should have learned this idiom when you were in junior high school, but it's a pity that you have obviously forgotten what it means." Li Xuehao looked at it expressionlessly, and suddenly smiled "evil" and said, "If you kill you, will you attract the people behind you?"
"You, what did you say?" Mr. Ueda was shocked for a moment, not because of the sentence "kill you", but because of the sentence "the person behind you", "How do you know..." Speaking of this, his tone suddenly paused, realizing that he was no longer an ordinary human, but a "god", at least for ordinary humans.
"Little kid, I don't know how you know this. Now I have changed my mind. Kill you first, and then go to settle the score with that woman... You should be a part of my body obediently!" As he said that, his mouth suddenly opened, and a black light shot out from his mouth, and quickly shot towards the opposite side.
The black light is the strong resentment it carries. Resentment is not something that is possessed by a living person, nor is it something that a living person can resist. Living creatures will soon lose consciousness when they are invaded by a resentment, and the soul will escape from the body due to the invasion of a resentment and lose the protection of the body. A simple spiritual body will become a "good meal" for some non-human species.
Mr. Ueda obviously had this plan.
Seeing the black light coming, even though it could be easily avoided, Li Xuehao remained indifferent and let the resentment hit him. For him, this joking attack was not even as tickling.
"Sher~~" It seemed that something fragile seemed to be touching another stronger thing, breaking and dying, and the black light hit someone and disappeared without a trace in an instant.
Mr. Ueda had a ferocious face, as if he was already waiting to harvest the delicious prey.
However, after waiting for a while, he did not see any change in a certain little devil hit by its "divine power". He still stood there with that annoying expression.
"Why are you okay..." Mr. Ueda was shocked. If he hadn't become a ghost after his death, he wouldn't have known that there was still an existence in this world that was far more than ordinary people. He had clearly seen "gods" who were more advanced than him to demonstrate how to attack humans. It was so easy, but why did his attack just not work?
"Your question is very strange. Why should I have something to do?" Li Xuehao smiled faintly and decided not to talk nonsense. He stretched out his hand, spread his five fingers, and aimed it at it from afar.
As his five fingers slightly closed, he saw that Mr. Ueda's translucent body, who was still in disbelief, suddenly seemed to be sucked by something. His body was pulled into a long strip, and was sucked into his hands one by one, and eventually turned into a translucent villain who was only about an inch long. Outside the villain, there was a transparent aperture, and the aperture kept it firmly imprisoned.
"Let me go out!" Mr. Ueda in the aperture looked at someone who had turned into a giant in his eyes. He had a strong fear on his face, and also a roar and screaming without reason. But no matter how hard it struggled, he could not break free from the transparent aperture that seemed to be broken with one poke.
Li Xuehao looked down at it, without saying a word, then turned his gaze to the distance. His consciousness had already scattered out and felt someone who had a slight scent of the same breath as the resentful spirit in his hand was coming here. The other party obviously knew that his Shikigami had an accident and was coming with all his strength.
This is just right, so he doesn't have to come to him personally. Li Xuehao also wants to know how Mr. Ueda died and how he became the other party's Shikigami.
...
Not long after, Li Xuehao waited for the person he was waiting for. It was a middle-aged man with a gloomy face. On a hot day, the other party was wearing a long windbreaker, not a thin one, but a very thick one, just like the one he wore in winter.
He also wore a round hat on his head. Except for not wearing a mask on his face, his whole body was wrapped tightly. I don’t know if it was to hide his figure or the weather was so cold that he couldn’t stand it.
"Young man, are you here alone?" The middle-aged man walked closer and stopped, his voice as he looked gloomy.
"As you see, I am indeed the only one." Li Xuehao's hand was behind his back, so the other party did not see his Shikigami. In addition, he had already isolated Mr. Ueda's breath. Even if it was close, the middle-aged man could not sense its existence.
"Have you seen anything strange?" The middle-aged man's tone was a little confused. He probably was also wondering, even though he could still sense his Shikigami before, why did he get closer, but he couldn't.
"Are you looking for something?" Li Xuehao asked without answering the question, with his hands behind his back, looking a little unfathomable.
The middle-aged man's eyes shrank slightly. He looked around. It was quiet here, and there was only a young man on the scene. Moreover, the other party did not meet a strange man like him and showed the vigilance he should have. Instead, he seemed very relaxed, as if he was waiting for him.
"Young man, tell me what happened here?" The middle-aged man's voice suddenly became softer, as if he had changed his words. Not only did he go from gloomy to gentleness, but he also had a hint of irresistible charm, making people unable to help but want to tell him the most private secret in his heart.
Li Xuehao smiled faintly: "Don't use those low-level things to deal with me, that's useless to me." It's just a "charming technique" that can't even be mentioned in the beginning, and he actually wants to manipulate him?
Seeing that his "charming technique" had no effect, the middle-aged man was shocked and realized that the young man in front of him was not simple. At the same time, he also suspected the whereabouts of his Shikigami: "Has my Shikigami been captured by you?"
Li Xuehao looked at him and asked without answering a question: "I'm very curious, how could he become your Shikigami? I've seen him a few days ago and was still a living person."
"Oh? Do you know Ueda?" The middle-aged man narrowed his eyes slightly, and his eyes revealed vigilance and a hint of coldness.
"Know." Li Xuehao nodded. From the other party, he felt that this was the person who killed Mr. Ueda. The other party had the resentment attached to Mr. Ueda. Although it was almost indifferent, it could not escape his sensitive spiritual consciousness.
He obviously had already done the treatment, otherwise he would not have been so indifferent that he would be a little left. I'm afraid that even Mr. Ueda would not know that he was killed by the other party, and then he directly made it into Shikigami.
"So, Ueda has betrayed me?" The middle-aged man's gloomy voice was even more murderous. When he came here, he did not sense the aura of Shikigami. Only in two situations would be like this. One was that Ueda was captured by the other party and was imprisoned in the mate. The other was that Ueda betrayed him, took the initiative to cooperate with the other party, and terminated the "Shikigami contract" between him and it. He felt that the latter was more likely because the other party knew Ueda. More importantly, the "contract" he had placed on Ueda was not so easy to be terminated, unless Ueda actively cooperated, it could be terminated in a short time.
"Betray?" Li Xuehao had no expression on his face. In fact, he had heard a resentful spirit behind him explain loudly to the middle-aged man that it did not betray him, but unfortunately the middle-aged man could not hear its voice at all.
"Young man, since you and I are both Onmyoji, hand over Ueda and you can leave." The middle-aged man said in a deep voice, and his tone sounded generous to "leave one's horse".
In fact, this is true. It is just a young man. Although it seems a bit mysterious, no matter what, his strength cannot reach his level, because age is an insurmountable huge gap.
"I just want to know why you killed Mr. Ueda? Has he offended you?" Li Xuehao asked lightly, as if he hadn't heard of his "generousness" to the other party at all.
Upon hearing his words, Mr. Ueda, behind him, stopped struggling and screaming. Perhaps this sentence was beyond his expectations.
The middle-aged man's face looked even more gloomy. I wonder if he had given up on the Shikigami who betrayed him, or if he didn't care about these things at all: "Young man, I can satisfy your curiosity. It's very simple. Someone entrusted me to deal with him, so I killed him. I happened to see that he had the potential to become a Shikigami, so I took him in and made him my Shikigami."
"Ah--" As soon as he finished speaking, Li Xuehao heard Mr. Ueda's shrill and resentful scream behind him. It was estimated that this cruel reality made him crazy.
"Then Mr. Ueda said he wanted to take revenge on his 'enemies' during his lifetime, and he also agreed to it?" Li Xuehao asked again. The other party released Mr. Ueda's resentment and must have known the purpose of it. In order to take this Shikigami to his own use, he not only cleared Mr. Ueda's resentment from him and prevented him from knowing that he was the murderer, but also released it to take revenge in order to gain its gratitude.
"That's right." The middle-aged man admitted without hesitation, or in his opinion, this did not need to be concealed at all.
Li Xuehao nodded, turned his hand behind him to the front, looked down at the villain imprisoned in the transparent aperture on his hand and said, "Mr. Ueda, have you heard it?"
The villain's face was full of hatred and ferocity. I don't know if I heard his words, but I kept shouting in my mouth: "You all deserve to die, you all deserve to die..." It seemed that I was still in madness and had not woken up.
"Ueda..." The middle-aged man immediately understood that his Shikigami had not betrayed him at all, but was trapped by some kind of barrier. No wonder he had sensed nothing just now. Then a greedy heart suddenly arose in his heart. This barrier that traps Shikigami is so convenient and powerful that he, who is close at hand, cannot sense his Shikigami existence. If he can also master this " barrier"...
"Young man, who is your master?" After making a decision in his heart, the middle-aged man wanted to take action. While asking this, he walked two more steps forward and was closer to the boy opposite.
"Master? I don't have a master." Li Xuehao's face remained silent, but he also knew that the other party would not approach him for no reason, so he must have had some bad idea.
"That's good. I thought it was a bit troublesome. Since there wasn't, then I'll give out your secret technique of "enchantment" and then obediently become my Shikigami." The middle-aged man's gloomy face became cruel and violent. As he finished speaking, he pulled away his thick long windbreaker.
Several black smoke came out of his torn windbreaker and turned into four translucent figures. However, unlike Mr. Ueda, these four translucent figures almost approached a solid state. Although they looked translucent, they actually gave people another illusion, as if they could touch their entities with their hands, rather than the feeling that they could not touch them at all like Mr. Ueda.
"Kill him." The middle-aged man gave the order.
The four Shikigami rushed directly to the boy who seemed to have been shocked without any hesitation.
"Squee~Squee~" A few sounds of breaking through the air came, and four chopsticks flew out of the slant, shooting towards the four translucent figures as fast as lightning.
Ordinary physical attacks are ineffective against Shikigami, but these four chopsticks are different. They have spiritual energy attached to them, and they are like living creatures. When the four Shikigami sensed danger, they wanted to avoid them, but the four chopsticks followed like shadows and turned and chased after them.
"Ah-Ah-" The screams were only a little too late. The four Shikigamis were hit by chopsticks and instantly turned into wisps of smoke and disappeared into mid-air.
"Who???!!!!" The middle-aged man was so angry that he dared to attack his Shikigami, and he wiped out all his Shikigami in an instant.
"Sorry, it's really not very lively to play alone. How about let's get together?" A voice came from the window above the main entrance of Mrs. Seigu's house, and then Li Yao'er, who was wearing a refreshing and capable body, walked out and stood on the balcony.
Immediately afterwards, Wan Caihong also walked out. She looked at the two people outside the courtyard with playful thoughts. To be precise, she looked at the middle-aged man with gloating pleasure, her eyes were already looking at a dead person.
"Good evening, Miss Yao'er, Miss Wan, have you not slept yet?" Li Xuehao actually knew that they had been peeping and eavesdropping on the side, so he didn't mind them intervening in helping. Anyway, his strength had been exposed in front of Wan Caihong, so there was not much taboo.
"I was already asleep, but I was woken up by a small fish. It's really a small fish like this, let's leave it to us to deal with." Wan Caihong took a light step and jumped directly from the balcony. Although it was only one level, ordinary people would definitely not be able to jump down safely. She seemed very calm, even as relaxed as crossing the flat ground.
Li Yao'er didn't come down and was still standing on the balcony, but she was holding a chopstick in her hand and threw it around easily.
