Chapter 179: Taiyi remembers being schemed against!
In front of a dense forest far from Mibu Village, there is an execution ground with white sandstone paving and curtains around it.
The execution ground was not established by the government, but by the Huanyao Shengyang Sect.
Every morning, the witch Afeng would have people carry a sedan chair here, and then move "Taihao," also known as Taiyi, out from inside and stay here for the whole day.
"I wonder who will come to die today."
"Lord Taihao, let me help you relax."
A-Feng's jade-like hand climbed onto Tai-Yi's shoulder, and as she kneaded it, she unconsciously reached her hand inside Tai-Yi's chest.
Just a tiny bit, um, just a tiny bit.
Suppressing the itching all over his body, Ah Feng placed the weight of his breasts on Taiyi's shoulders, bit his lip, and with a misty look in his eyes, he reached inside.
Snapped!
Taiichi, still wearing the face mask, suddenly raised his left hand and grabbed her wrist.
Ugh, how annoying!
It wasn't that I was being blamed, but rather that the samurai who was to carry out the Heavenly Punishment today had already appeared at the execution ground.
After a period of killing, he can now regain control of his body whenever he feels killing intent.
But for Afeng, this was not good at all.
After all, with fewer opportunities to steal fuel, anyone would be very unhappy.
"Stay put and don't wander off."
ha?
After removing A-Feng's hand, Tai-Yi ran two fingers across A-Feng's chin twice before standing up and speaking coldly.
Watching him get up with a look of infatuation, Afeng quickly regained his composure, reverting to his usual cold demeanor, with a gaze that seemed to despise everyone.
Holding the Mortal Blade in his left hand, the white cloth strip wrapped around the blade snaked along Taiichi's wrist and into his sleeve.
After the eerie red light appeared, the five assassins who appeared opposite, with white cloth strips wrapped around their heads and expressions of determination to die, also looked as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
Hold the face mask by one corner with your fingers and flip it upwards:
"Is it this kind of stuff again?"
"Well, even a mosquito's leg is still meat, no matter how small."
"Furthermore, the duration of body control is partly related to soul power, and the other half seems to be related to my own mind."
Pointing in the direction of the finger, the world before my eyes turned dark again.
But at the same moment, the power of his soul was released, allowing him to clearly perceive everything around him.
"You coward who served as a watchdog of the old era, today, for the sake of this country and for the sake of the new era, we must kill you here!"
"I am Yamashita Kikoshi, a righteous man from the Choshu Domain. I once traveled to the Oku region to learn True Qi Martial Arts, and today I am honored..."
Call ~
He raised the Mortal Blade in his hand, blade downwards, and swung it horizontally.
Even without the support of true energy, it still whipped up a gust of wind that blew towards the group opposite.
Slowly extending his left index finger and placing it in front of his lips through the face mask, Taiichi signaled to the other person to stop talking.
"Heh, a righteous man? New era? Old era?"
"It's nothing more than the ambition of a bunch of petty thieves."
As Tai walked forward, he recalled the memories of the Bakumatsu period and the so-called loyalists who revered the emperor.
To usher in a new era? To strive for world peace? To empower the people to control their own destiny?
Perhaps, but more so, it's about the iteration of power.
When the cherry blossoms were forced to open the country's doors by foreign warships and cannons, those samurai who still dreamed of escaping the era with their long swords finally woke up from their dream.
It turns out that relying solely on a sword and the identity of a samurai is not enough to survive in the tides of time.
And the shogunate, which had seized power with its long sword, no longer seemed so terrifying at this moment.
"So, just because I happened to overhear your plan, and was about to be killed, I became a sinner in your eyes after killing those people?"
"Those who don't stand together are enemies; this distinction has always been clear in any era."
"In that case, let's not bother with those high-sounding words."
"Let me see whether it's your so-called ambition that's too strong, or..."
"The blade in my hand is sharp!"
boom!
A violent airflow erupted from beneath Taiyi's feet, stirring up countless white sand and gravel fragments while radiating outwards in ripples.
The killing intent emanating from him began to affect the surrounding environment.
The leaves of the green willows were covered with frost, and the bright weather was obscured by the sudden appearance of leaden clouds.
His long hair, hanging down his back, stood on end and danced wildly in the air. He gripped the Mortal Blade in his right hand and pulled it back, while simultaneously raising his left palm to rest the back of the blade on it.
"Taihao of the Holy Sun Sect! Stop playing tricks here!"
“We are not the same kind of fools you slaughtered before!”
"The true teachings from the Austro-Lu region will today be renowned throughout the world!"
The samurai quickly drew their katana from their waists, gathered their inner energy into the blades, and then slashed forward with great force.
A whooshing sound rang out as five grayish-white sword energies, carrying an aura of annihilation, slashed towards Taiyi's body.
He tilted his head, paying no attention to the enemy, but rather to the sword energy.
Just as the attacks were about to get close, Taiichi used a diagonal kasaya slash, shattering all the attacks with a single strike.
Sensing the gray-black miasma permeating the air, his eyebrows suddenly twitched.
"This is..." A slow, sly smile curved his lips, and his eyes grew increasingly ferocious.
"Sakura Dragon, you've managed to influence this place now?"
"What, do you also intend to contend for this world?"
A cracking sound rang out, and the knuckles gripping the knife turned even paler from the excessive force.
The mere mention of Sakura Dragon caused Taiichi's anger to surge forth.
At that time, recognizing the other party's strength, I became much more cautious in my actions.
Finally, in order to avoid being controlled by others and to gain the upper hand in advance.
Before Taiyi's realm of refining the form of the sun was stable, he resolutely decided to go to Paradise Island first.
But in the end, he found that he had been tricked by Sakura Dragon.
Although he was certain that Sakura Ryu would never have expected that Yoriichi Tsugikuni would pour all of his condensed Yang energy into him.
In an instant, it pushed the realm of the physical body to an unprecedented height in this world.
But now he can only control his body intermittently, and he was also sealed in the acupoint space for more than 20 years. All these things combined make him wish he could run to the immortal land immediately and tear the cherry dragon to pieces.
"Old man, you like to scheme, don't you?"
Inside the Yuzhen Pass acupoint space, Taiyi, who was meditating with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his mouth and said a sentence.
Lian, on the other hand, was interrupted from her meditation by his action and stared at him with a bewildered expression.
