A Dimensional Journey Begins with the Dragon Clan

Chapter 533 526. Xuan Hao: Too naive

"It's worth it..."

The sound of chattering teeth could not be heard.

Kurosaki Ichigo, who had just followed Kuchiki Rukia back to the classroom, stopped at the door of the classroom.

Before he had time to return to his body, he saw that terrifying figure sitting on the seat not far from him.

"What's wrong, Ichigo, why don't you go in?"

Kuchiki Rukia, who was walking behind, stepped forward and asked with some doubts.

Then, she was also stunned.

"This man...how did he appear here?"

This is the common doubt in Kurosaki Ichigo and Kuchiki Rukia's mind at the moment.

Soon, they remembered that Kojima Mizuiro seemed to have mentioned that there was another transfer student in the afternoon!

"Yo!"

Noticing their return, Xuan Hao raised his hand and greeted them with a smile.

"Yo... yo!"

Kurosaki Ichigo and Kuchiki Rukia responded with ugly smiles on their faces.

"We are all classmates, don't be nervous." Xuan Hao said softly.

However, in the ears of the two, the voice seemed to be able to penetrate the soul. This man seemed to have used some special method to directly convey the voice to their ears across a distance.

Who the hell wants to be your classmate!The two roared in their hearts, but they could only smile on their faces.

No one wants to be in the same room with such a terrible guy who doesn't know the details, right?

Kurosaki Ichigo walked up to Xuan Hao cautiously, clasped his thighs with his hands, and bowed at ninety degrees, "I'm sorry for the misunderstanding last time!"

Don't ask him why he did this, he was just afraid that this horrible guy would kill himself because of the knife he cut last time, is this wrong?No!You know, this ruthless man in front of him can pick up his nearly two-meter-long Zanpakuto with one finger!Can't afford to provoke.

"sit."

Xuan Hao smiled slightly, indicating that Kurosaki Ichigo could return to his body.

"Yes!"

Kurosaki Ichigo sat on the seat obediently, his soul overlapped with his body, and then his body shuddered, bouncing like he was waking up from a nightmare.

"Ah, Kurosaki-kun, you're awake!"

Orihime Inoue at the side saw Kurosaki Ichigo wake up after sleeping all morning, and clapped his hands happily.

"Crack-"

The pen in Xuan Hao's hand was accidentally broken.

The sound sent chills down Kurosaki Ichigo's spine, he turned his head to look, and found that the man was smiling at himself.

But for some reason, he felt that such a smile seemed extremely dangerous, no, no need to feel it, the way this man looked at him definitely became more dangerous!

······
off day.

"Hum hum hum~"

Inoue Orihime hummed, and stood in front of the traffic light with a shopping bag in his hand, waiting.

With a faint smile on her face, she seemed to be in a good mood.

Soon, the green light indicating that you can pass is on.

She looked around and took a step.

She originally obeyed the traffic rules, so she wouldn't have any accidents, but the prerequisite is that everyone obeys the rules.

Just when Inoue Orihime was halfway there, the tires of a car speeding up from a distance rubbed against the ground and made a sharp and screeching sound, perhaps because the car was about to stop, and the driver honked the horn frantically.

"!?"

Hearing the piercing voice, Orihime Inoue subconsciously turned her head.

She saw a vehicle speeding towards her, but failed to react.

Because the car was coming so fast, the speed of ordinary people couldn't react at all.

"coming."

Xuan Hao, who was guarding Inoue Orihime in the dark to avoid her accident, watched this scene expressionlessly.

He didn't make a move because he knew someone would save Inoue Orihime.

From the first time she saw Inoue Orihime, he felt a breath lurking around this girl.

That is a false breath.But to his surprise, the aura didn't seem to have any malicious intent.

It made him recall something about the girl from his vague memory.

Orihime Inoue seems to have an older brother who is dead.

And after the brother died, because he was worried about his sister's obsession, he stayed in the present world, and later turned into a void.

It was not what he expected.

A hand protruding from the shadows suddenly grabbed Orihime Inoue's leg and pulled her out of the car's path.

Saved her, but left a bruise-like mark on her body.

And at this moment, Xuan Hao finally locked onto this empty breath.

After confirming that Inoue Orihime will not have any major incidents, he followed this breath and left here.

It is true that the elder brother transformed into 'Xu' has been protecting his younger sister so far, but if this continues, there will definitely be problems.

Because this is a 'virtual' after all.

Xuan Hao, who has spent such a long time in the Xu circle, is quite familiar with creatures like Xu.Human beings who incarnate as void will gradually forget no matter what emotions they had when they were still human.

Except for a small number of virtuals who have self-awareness, the remaining virtuals will eventually become real 'beasts', even if they see their relatives, they will devour them without hesitation.It's not up to them at all.

Obviously, Inoue Orihime's elder brother is not that small group of special ghosts.

So, before things get to the worst, he intends to get rid of this virtual one first.

So, following the breath left by the ghost, he came to the door of Kurosaki Ichigo's house.

"..."

Looking at this familiar place, Xuan Hao was speechless.

Should it be you?Kurosaki Ichigo!Nothing has nothing to do with you kid!
Before he entered the house, there was a commotion in Kurosaki Ichigo's room upstairs.

"Aim at its head!"

Kuchiki Rukia commanded after seeing Hollow who suddenly crawled out of the void.

"understand!"

Kurosaki Ichigo pulled out the Zanpakutō from his back, and slashed at Xu's head.

But maybe it was because he had just obtained the power of the god of death and he didn't have a good grasp of it, and he was a little unfamiliar with the use of Zanpakuto, so this blow was a little shallower.

Kuchiki Rukia told him that Xu's weakness is in the head, and the trick to killing Xu is to cut off the mask together, which is fatal in one blow.

But his knife only cut off a corner of the virtual mask.

And after the corner was broken, the exposed face stopped his hand that wanted to attack again.

Xu screamed and retreated into the void, his breath disappeared without a trace.

"what are you doing!?"

Kuchiki Rukia scolded angrily, "Hurry up!"

"I... can't do it..."

"why?"

"Because...that was... Inoue's elder brother just now!"

"Ugh……"

Kuchiki Rukia sighed as if she was discouraged, "It is to avoid this situation, I told you to approach from behind as much as possible when facing Hollow, and kill it with one blow. Because this will not only minimize the damage in the battle , and if you win with one blow, you won't see Xu's true colors."

"Why...why is this?"

"Because all emptiness, before becoming emptiness, are actually the souls of ordinary people."

A calm voice sounded behind Kurosaki Kazuo.

He turned his head in a daze, and saw that Xuan Hao had come to his room at some point, and was standing at the place where the Void Void just entered the void.

"You... what did you say?"

Kurosaki Ichigo looked at the man's calm back in disbelief, and he turned his head to look at Kuchiki Rukia, hoping that she could deny the man's words.

But Kuchiki Rukia just hugged her arms tightly at this moment and turned her head away.

There is no doubt that she admitted the man's statement.

"Hey, hey, this is not funny, I've never heard of such a thing! Rukia! Didn't you say that all monsters should be eliminated?"

"Yes, now they have all become monsters, so they must be eliminated." Kuchiki Rukia looked at Kurosaki Ichigo's face and told him the cruel reality.

"So... all I killed... were humans?"

Kurosaki Ichigo's hand holding the knife trembled slightly.

He never thought that one day he would kill someone.

"Don't be naive, boy."

Xuan Hao turned his head and gave Kurosaki Ichigo a cold look, "When you hesitate to kill them, they are threatening the lives of others."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and opened the void in Kuchiki Rukia's shocked eyes.

This is the black cavity that Xu can only open, and it is also the place where Xu escaped just now.

"you……"

Before she could ask, the figure of the man had disappeared in place, and the black cavity was gradually closing.

"Follow Ichigo."

"What!? You want me to kill... Brother Inoue?"

Kurosaki Ichigo hesitated, he didn't understand why these two people could make such decisive judgments.Even if that person is a stranger to them, he shouldn't be so indifferent, right?Could it be that this is the so-called 'Reaper'?

"He's right, Ichigo, you're still too naive."

Kuchiki Rukia rushed into the black cavity, turned around, "If we hesitate to kill them, they will kill you or your relatives, what will you do?"

"This……"

Kurosaki Ichigo was questioned.

"Now that girl is in danger, are you sure you want to stay here like this?"

"hateful!"

Kurosaki Ichigo gritted his teeth and roared, and rushed into the black cavity.

······
"Xu will eat souls not to fill his stomach. In fact, creatures in the state of souls will not die even if they don't eat."

In the black voice, Kuchiki Rukia said while riding on the running Kurosaki Ichigo, her voice seemed a little depressed.

"They are constantly devouring other people's souls to fill them in order to escape the emptiness and pain. The void is actually a fallen soul, a soul that cannot be extradited to the world of corpses and souls by death, a defeated soul, and a soul that cannot bear the void surrounded , they will lose their hearts due to degeneration, and eventually become monsters like Xu who constantly devour other people's souls in order to fill their lost 'hearts'.

And the best thing to fill the lost 'heart' is what they loved the most during their lifetime. "

"So...he's going to devour Inoue's soul!?" Kurosaki Ichigo asked, frowning.

"Yes."

Kuchiki Rukia replied firmly.

"I wanted to tell you a long time ago, Ichigo. Since I have decided to be a shinigami, I should have the corresponding awareness.

If you are not enlightened, don't save people, because - when we save people, we will also stain our hands with blood.It's impossible to stay naive, there's no best of both worlds, you have to make a choice. "

······
"boom--"

The puppet bear fell to the ground with a muffled sound.

"This is……"

Inoue home.

Inoue Orihime, who was drinking afternoon tea with her girlfriend Ryuki Arisawa, heard a strange voice behind her.

The two looked suspiciously at the puppet bear that fell to the ground.

It was a puppet placed on the cabinet, and the house was calm and eerily quiet.

How could it fall for no reason?
There was cold sweat on Arisawa Ryuki's forehead, and he seemed to feel a little weird.

But Orihime Inoue, who has thick lines, doesn't seem to realize what's going on.

She called the puppet's name and rushed over to pick it up, looking distressed.

"Ah!"

"What's wrong!?"

Arisawa Ryuki heard Inoue Orihime's scream and quickly followed.

"How could it... crack?"

Inoue Orihime handed the puppet to Arisawa Ryuki.

"!?" Ryuki Arisawa saw that the puppet's head seemed to be cut open by something sharp, and the cotton leaked out of it.No, that's not the point, the point is that Zhi Ji's hand, why is it stained with something like blood?

She realized that something was wrong, and quickly tried to grab Inoue Orihime's hand, but it was too late.

An invisible force pushed Inoue Orihime's body away, right in front of her.

"Orhime!!"

Arisawa Ryuki's face turned pale, "There is... something around here!"

She quickly realized that something was wrong. There seemed to be something unclean in this room.

In the sight that Arisawa Ryuki could not see, Inoue Orihime curled up in the corner, desperately calling for his friends to run away.

Inoue Orihime's state at the moment is not much better than Arisawa Ryuki, and she has no idea what happened.

At this moment, she could clearly see her body lying on the ground, while her 'person' was in another corner, and a slender chain connected her with herself lying on the ground.

The sight in front of her made her feel even more frightened.

A huge monster is behind his good friend, but his friend seems to be unable to feel the other party's existence at all.

No matter how she shouted, her voice couldn't reach her.

Arisawa Ryuki stared blankly at the empty space in front of him.

Although she had realized that there seemed to be something unclean in the room, she still couldn't see anything.

Ordinary people can't see Xu or Reaper, even if the opponent is already standing in front of him, even if the opponent's claws are roaring.

"No! Xiaogui, run!"

While shouting, Orihime Inoue rushed over recklessly, trying to knock away the monster in front of him that was stretching out its claws towards his best friend.

"Zhiji, why did you save her?"

Feeling the impact from his body, Xu stretched out his hand suspiciously and held Inoue Orihime in his hand.

"Let... let go of me!"

Inoue Orihime struggled to scream, even biting the weak finger with his teeth to try to let it go.
