"Clang!"
The moment everyone knelt down, a sword rang out, and Bai Ze's figure slowly split in two.
Tsukahara the Sword Saint makes his move.
but-
The separated figures reunited, and Bai Ze returned to his original form.
"Another illusion?!"
Saiō hurriedly used the Yata no Kagami to confirm, while Iehara Kensei used his spiritual senses to try and find the true location of Hakutaku.
Unfortunately, no matter how hard he searched, he couldn't find his target.
"The Sword Saint's sword is indeed sharp, but since you could not protect Yingguo from the general's hands, you naturally cannot succeed in my hands either."
Bai Ze said calmly, "I took District 11 from the General."
In other words, Bai Ze is stronger than the general.
At least in the Steel Continent round, Bai Ze has already won the checkmate.
If the Japanese couldn't win back the Steel Continent from the general, they had even less chance of winning against Bai Ze.
Tsukahara Kensei gripped what appeared to be a sword hilt tightly, remaining silent.
Because he knew that Bai Ze was right.
Even if Bai Ze couldn't control the Prince of the West and those martial artists above the eighth star level, he would still be able to take control of Ying Kingdom.
The famous ninja prodigy, Uchiha Ichiba, once said that it's not "only by becoming Hokage" that one can gain people's recognition, but rather "only those who gain people's recognition" can become Hokage.
Now, Bai Ze has the "people" of Ying Kingdom in his hands.
Compared to "people", figures like Shin'emon Iehara and Saiō seem too thin.
They are indeed powerful, and even Bai Ze is having difficulty dealing with Tsukahara Sword Saint at this moment. But no matter how powerful they are, they can't just kill all the people of Ying Kingdom.
Sometimes, no matter how strong an individual is, they can be swept up by the collective.
Iehara Sword Saint is a typical example.
With his strength, he could go anywhere in the world. The Western Alliance, and indeed any country, would welcome a nine-star martial artist to join him. Even if he didn't want to stay on Earth, he could go to any world.
The reason I stayed in Yingguo, even under the general's intentional or unintentional suppression, was for the sake of Yingguo.
The general conquered Yingguo, but failed to conquer Iehara Kensei.
At this moment, Bai Ze had not yet managed to defeat Tsukahara Sword Saint, but he had conquered Ying Kingdom. At least, now all the court officials of Ying Kingdom had been subdued by Bai Ze.
"How is it?" Bai Ze asked, looking at Tsukahara Sword Saint.
He didn't say it explicitly, but he believed the other person would understand what he meant.
The old but still vigorous warrior lowered his eyes. "I am willing to draw my sword for the sake of Ying Kingdom."
"very good."
Bai Ze nodded slightly. "Then let's take action and persuade the guests to leave."
He had just unleashed his divine power, and was no longer at his peak. Even if he were to intervene, he couldn't help Mu Yaoguang.
But the Nine-Star Sword Saint of Jiayuan is different.
That's why Bai Ze came to take down the insects from Ying Kingdom first.
"But you need to promise that you won't attack anyone else," Shin'emon Iehara said in a deep voice.
"I promise."
"Just kidding."
Standing outside the Imperial Palace, Bai Ze spoke in a low voice.
Although Tsukahara Shin'emon can make a move for now, this Japanese sword saint, along with others, will definitely be thinking about taking the Steel Continent from Hakutaku.
Obeying orders now is merely a temporary compromise.
Given this, how could Bai Ze not take precautions?
Moreover, he intends to use Japan as a stepping stone to reach even higher levels.
At most, it just needs to be done discreetly, allowing the person being controlled to behave normally.
Even knowing that Bai Ze possessed the ability to control minds, they only thought it was a form of brainwashing. There were too many such methods; no matter how normal the controlled person appeared, there would always be abnormalities, and the control could be broken.
Therefore, they are unaware of how thorough their control is, where words become law.
"General, Great Freedom, Ying Kingdom... Thanks to you all, my divine will has been perfected, and I no longer need to worry about my power. After a little more adjustment, I can continue to break through."
...
...
Bai Ze's eyes were filled with a bloodshot glint. "Dongxia, I will go back sooner or later."
In the western sky above the Iron Continent, dark energy surged, forming a massive Xuanwu totem.
Within the totem, dark mystic energy swirled like a storm, then suddenly exploded, revealing three figures.
"Get out of here!"
Mu Yaoguang's phoenix eyes were filled with murderous intent, and her sword energy, like a dragon, struck Wei Shaozheng from the sky.
Thud—
The profound energy exploded with a roar, the sword light drew blood, and Wei Shaozheng was forced to retreat violently through the air.
Seeing this, Qi Yue shifted his body, imbued the sword with Tai Xuan evil energy, and swung the sword, weaving a perfect sword net, only to be directly blasted apart by a palm strike in mid-air.
boom!
The palm strike was like a tidal wave, forcing the two men to retreat violently.
.....
...
At the same time, the Xuanwu totem responded spontaneously, manifesting its imposing aura and blocking Mu Yaoguang's pursuit.
Those who practice the "Northern Emperor's Black Law" share the same source of true energy and true essence, enabling them to form a perfect synergy.
The more fellow practitioners there are, the greater the power they can exert; this is a classic example of the power of numbers.
Mu Yaoguang's strength was indeed formidable. She managed to suppress an eight-star and a nine-star opponent while only being at the eight-star level, but she was still unable to break through their obstruction.
Seeing the two men regain their strength, Mu Yaoguang's eyes grew even colder, and she was about to release her control over Deng Linyi and begin a desperate fight.
As a martial art built from and fused together forbidden techniques and methods, the Ascending Intent is not lacking in life-or-death methods. From small-scale methods of shaking blood and qi to stimulating internal energy, to large-scale methods of burning life force to gain power, the Ascending Intent has them all.
Mu Yaoguang was also anxious because she sensed that Bai Ze's aura had undergone a great change, and it had become tainted with an aura that was extremely familiar to her.
That was the aura of the Great Freedom Demon Blood.
Mu Yaoguang had been watching the Great Freedom Demon Blood for five whole years. Every day when she opened her eyes, all she saw was a sea of blood. She was all too familiar with it.
The Great Freedom Demon Blood was the biggest surprise; Bai Ze, now tainted by this aura, is definitely in a bad situation.
However, just as Mu Yaoguang was about to fight desperately, the Xuanwu totem suddenly dispersed.
An elderly man and a middle-aged man stood side by side, their faces stern and austere, with the Xuanwu totem standing behind them.
At the same time, a sharp aura swept across the sky, and Shin'emon Iehara arrived.
As soon as he appeared, he locked his sword energy onto the two of them from afar, making his stance clear.
"Impressive, they actually managed to persuade the sword saint of Japan in such a short time." Wei Shaozheng said in a deep voice upon seeing this.
Beside him, Qi Yue, dressed in military uniform, said calmly, "Unfortunately, he still has the blood of the Great Free Heavenly Lord. From now on, there will be no place for him in the Eastern Xia Federation."
Upon hearing this, both Mu Yaoguang and Tsukahara Shin'emon, who arrived shortly afterward, were deeply shaken.
Mu Yaoguang was shocked by this, and even the Sword Saint Tsukahara did not expect that Bai Ze had actually fused with the blood of the Great Freedom Demon.
"Great freedom!"
Mu Yaoguang's gaze turned icy, her killing intent surging forth as she pointed directly at Wei and Qi.
But before she could put her murderous intent into action, Wei Shaozheng spoke up: "The Great Lord of Freedom has said that he will wait for Bai Ze's return in Dongxia. Next, he will personally confront Bai Ze."
As soon as they finished speaking, the two transformed into two streaks of black light and withdrew from the Steel Continent without hesitation.
And look at the direction they retreated in; it was clearly the direction of the Eastern Xia troops.
After secretly tracking Bai Ze's location, betraying him to Da Zizai, and ambushing Mu Yaoguang, the two still dared to return to Dongxia.
Seeing this, Mu Yaoguang was not surprised at all, only cold and murderous.
She knew that the Eastern Xia Federation would not suspect the two of them at all, even if Mu Yaoguang reported the situation and revealed their betrayal.
Those who cultivate the "Northern Emperor's Black Law" are defenders of the federal law and will never betray it; this is universally acknowledged.
Even if Mu Yaoguang, the number one genius of Dongxia, denounced them, no one would believe her.
At most, they might be skeptical, or they might believe it to some extent.
"My credit score isn't as good as others."
Bai Ze's voice suddenly rang out.
Mu Yaoguang suddenly turned around and saw Bai Ze's figure appear not far behind her. Although the figure was illusory, it was definitely a projection of his own body.
After Bai Ze appeared, he gently waved his hand, signaling the Sword Saint of Iehara to leave, and then said, "Compared to the credibility that the Ministry of Justice and the Social Security Agency have built up over decades, our words are somewhat weak."
For decades, practitioners of the Northern Emperor's Black Law have worked diligently and without favoritism. Many despise their ruthlessness, but also believe in their selflessness.
No one ever imagined that there would be a traitor among them.
Not to mention that the Third Divine Enemy also cultivates the "Northern Emperor's Black Law" and has made countless contributions to the Eastern Xia Federation.
Simply put, the evidence was too strong; neither Bai Ze nor Mu Yaoguang could shake it.
Even if evidence is presented, most people would likely suspect that it is fabricated.
Previously, Bai Ze's solid credentials had convinced Zhang Zhixu to choose him, someone with whom he had a grudge, rather than the theologian. Now, even solid credentials are no longer effective against even stronger ones.
Not to mention Bai Ze's demonic possession.
Once you become possessed by a demon, your credit score drops to zero, or even becomes negative.
Once a cultist, always a cultist; cultists cannot be saved, especially followers of the Great Free Demon Lord.
This is common sense that the federal government writes in textbooks.
Even if someone was a saint before, after receiving the blood of the Great Freedom Demon, they will become a pure demon and heretic.
Looking into Bai Ze's blood-red eyes, Mu Yaoguang's usually cold and beautiful face finally showed a huge change.
"you··...."
Mu Yaoguang gritted her teeth, "Why were you so impulsive!"
"I thought you would just come at me with your sword and doubt that I had converted to the Great Freedom," Bai Ze said with a faint smile.
"Do you think I'm as stupid as you? I've already figured out most of your tricks," Mu Yaoguang turned her face away, trying to calm her voice. "Don't forget, all your knowledge about the Great Freedom Demon Blood came from me."
Mu Yaoguang spent five years comprehending the Great Freedom Demon Blood. All her insights and conjectures about the Demon Blood were shared with Bai Ze when she transmitted the Great Freedom Dharma Body to him.
That's why Bai Ze came up with that solution.
Because this method of dealing with the problem was too dangerous, Bai Ze never told anyone else, including Mu Yaoguang.
Of course, it's also possible that he's a very shrewd person, and even though he's dating Mu Yaoguang, he hasn't completely revealed his true nature.
As soon as Mu Yaoguang saw Bai Ze, she guessed his plan.
Having a genius girlfriend can be quite frightening at times, especially when you're also involved with other women.
However, it must be admitted that having someone as insightful as Mu Yaoguang, who seems to have a tacit understanding with me, is a blessing in life.
"I had no choice. Da Zizai doesn't care about martial ethics. He launched a sneak attack and injected his demonic blood into my body," Bai Ze said helplessly.
He was far from being at his wit's end, so why would he try to grasp at the Great Freedom Demon Blood as his last lifeline?
If it weren't for Da Zizai's lack of martial ethics, Bai Ze might never have come into contact with Da Zizai's demonic blood in his entire life.
"Great freedom!"
Mu Yaoguang gritted her teeth and uttered the phrase "Great Freedom" again, but her state of mind gradually calmed down.
As long as Bai Ze doesn't die, and it's not a matter of converting to the Great Freedom, everything else is not a big problem.
Just as she once said, people like her and Bai Ze always get things too easily; what ordinary people consider miracles are probably just things that happen by chance to them.
No matter how great the difficulties, as long as you have the will, they can always be overcome.
The predicament before her was nothing more than a few hardships in Mu Yaoguang's eyes.
"Da Zizai has always focused on manipulating people's hearts, but his style has changed now. I don't know if he changed his principles after being severely injured, or if he has gradually broken free from the shackles of faith," Mu Yaoguang analyzed after calming down.
These evil gods donned the guise of gods and demons, absorbed the relevant faiths, and possessed the powers of those gods and demons, but were also bound by those faiths as a result.
Their own personalities will tend to resemble the characters depicted in mythology.
However, with the power of great freedom, it is not impossible to break free from the constraints of faith.
This is the first evil god to dare to try something new since the world came together, and also the first evil god.
Before the Great Freedom, gods and demons were merely myths; it was only when he donned the guise of gods and demons that myths became reality.
Although the Great Lord of Liberation is not at the top level in Buddhism, in reality, Liberation can be considered the primordial god.
As Mu Yaoguang spoke, she quietly calmed the turmoil on her face. When she turned around, she had regained her usual composure and calmness.
"You can't return to the Eastern Xia Federation now, but you must never let anyone get evidence that you've fused with the Great Freedom Demon's blood," Mu Yaoguang instructed. "As long as it's uncertain whether you've truly fallen into demonic possession, there's still a chance to return openly and legitimately."
Bai Ze's credibility is indeed not as strong as that of a cultivator of the "Northern Emperor's Black Laws," but it is still quite formidable.
Unless irrefutable evidence is obtained, no matter how many rumors circulate, they cannot definitively prove that Bai Ze has become a demon.
Once the problem of the demonic blood is resolved, or if he can ensure that he is not discovered, he can return to the Eastern Xia Federation.
"I will help you deal with the Martial Arts Association. Elder Zhang and others will also help you hold the line."
Mu Yaoguang carefully instructed, "But be very careful not to tell Zhang Lao the truth; they are different from me."
Mu Yaoguang's pupils suddenly dilated.
He lowered his head as Bai Ze's figure drew near.
Their eyes met at close range, and the illusory figure and Mu Yaoguang embraced. Although there was no real physical contact, it made their hearts flutter.
After a short while, Bai Ze stepped back and said, "Wait for me to come back."
"it is good."
Mu Yaoguang didn't say anything more, but just watched quietly as Bai Ze's phantom disappeared.
After that, it stood in mid-air for a long time before turning around and disappearing in a flash of light.
