The journey from the Quincy
Page 40
After following for a while, Rukia frowned in confusion.
Tsunayashiro's house was built in the opposite direction of the Kuchiki family. Rukia was slightly relieved to know that this was not the direction to the Kuchiki family. It was a blessing in disguise that Shirayuki Hitomi did not go to the Kuchiki family to cause trouble.
Although Rukia was born in Rukongai, as the adopted daughter of the Kuchiki family, she was no stranger to the noble street, at least she was familiar with the area where the Kuchiki family mansion was located.
However, Bai Yuetong's target was actually one of the four nobles, which surprised Rukia and she was not sure what the other party wanted to do.
In Soul Society, except for some facilities, high-rise buildings are rarely built. Compared with the skyscrapers in the real world, the streets are more like those reminiscent of the capital city of the Heian period in Japan.
Although the same was true for the Kizokugai, the structure of the mansion seemed to be looking down on the other noble houses, as if ignoring the Sixth Division and the Kuchiki family as the area managers, and claiming that they were the rulers of this area.
However, for some reason, when she arrived at Tsunayashiro's house, she felt a lot of fine sand appearing inexplicably. The closer she got to Tsunayashiro's house, the more she felt the amount of sand was increasing, and it even gave Rukia the feeling as if she was stepping on the desert of Hueco Mundo.
Moreover, the huge mansion was completely empty without a trace of human presence, as if it was a haunted house where a murder had occurred and all the residents were dead, which was chilling.

Chapter 84: Change the past and awaken Ge Kuang.
"Yes, this is the Tsunayashiro family, the leader of the four great noble families."
Bai Yuetong said to Rukia, "Although I didn't go to the Kuchiki family, I have been to Tsunayashiro's house once."
“So these things on the ground…”
Rukia's pupils constricted when she heard that, and she subconsciously looked at the gravel on the ground.
"You guessed correctly. The gravel on the ground that you and I are stepping on is the corpses of the Tsunayashiro clan."
Bai Yuetong said without hiding anything.
"That's it."
Rukia lowered her head and sighed.
Originally, she thought she would be very angry, but after thinking about the truth of the world she had learned before, she felt surprisingly calm at the moment. She did not feel the slightest sadness because of the annihilation of the Tsunayashiro clan. She even felt a faint sense of pleasure, thinking that this was a natural retribution for cause and effect.
However, Rukia knew that her mentality was problematic. If it were her old self, when she learned all this, no matter how much she hated the Tsunayashiro clan, she would at least be angry about the passing of life and Bai Yuetong's indifference and trampling on life.
However, now she didn't know why, she felt that everything in front of her was unexpected but reasonable. Perhaps she had suffered too many shocks in these days and was a little numb. She didn't have too much anger and sadness, only a faint sorrow for the passing of life and a sigh for the cycle of fate.
"So why did you bring me here? You can't just come here to show off to me how many people you killed. In my eyes, you are not such a boring and superficial man."
Rukia raised her head and asked in confusion.
“I just want to do an experiment, and this miraculous experiment happens to need a witness, and I think you are suitable.
Rukia, you are Ichigo Kurosaki's guide. On that first night, you were like a beam of light, connecting different worlds for him.
What I have to do now is to connect different times, a great miracle that can change history, so I think you are the most suitable witness. "
Bai Yuetong squatted down and, under Rukia's puzzled gaze, inserted her right hand into the ground.
Even though time passes, the bond will never be severed.
Rukia is special. She saved Ichigo, who had his heart locked in the rainy and gloomy weather. The rain stopped, the door opened, and multiple worlds were connected for Ichigo, both literally and spiritually.
As for Ichigo Kurosaki, who will become a literary youth in the future, the reason he becomes a translator is because he is interested in "connecting different worlds."
"Experiment? What experiment are you going to do? And why did you mention Ichigo?"
Rukia's eyes widened and she had a bad feeling in her heart, especially when Bai Yuetong suddenly mentioned Ichigo's name, which made her vigilance reach its peak.
Bai Yuetong is a bad guy. You can look down on his character, but you can't underestimate his ability. Rukia couldn't help but get nervous at this moment.
"You should know the effect of Tsukishima Hidekuro's bookmark."
Bai Yuetong began to use her abilities to conduct this experiment as a rehearsal for entering the real world.
"No way, you don't even let men go?"
Rukia shuddered as if she had seen something dirty, then she hugged her arms and took a few steps back.
"Asshole, Rukia, what's wrong with your imagination? I'm straight, how could I do something so disgusting!"
Bai Yuetong said with a dark face, and then as if something good had happened, she immediately turned from anger to joy, grinned, pulled her hand out of the ground and stood up, "Great, I succeeded!"
"Successful? What did you succeed in?"
Rukia asked with a frown, her inner uneasiness growing stronger.
Tsukishima Hidekuro's ability is to insert his own existence into the other party's past.
Bai Yuetong sandwiched her own existence into the earth. What does she want to do with the past of this land?
"Wake up, Ge Kuang~"
Bai Yuetong held her head high and chest puffed out, with her arms outstretched, her expression fanatical, as if she was embracing the whole world.
"Ge Kuang? No way..."
Rukia opened her mouth slightly in disbelief.
When Bai Yuetong was imparting knowledge to them, she also took the opportunity to explain to them how the scum of the Tsunamiyo family persecuted Fullbringers and conducted various experiments on the Soul King fragments.
The innocent and kind-hearted Miss Utamachi was one of the victims, and her husband Tsunayashiro Tokinada was also a typical example of proving that the Tsunayashiro family was inherently evil. Even the reason why Tosen followed Aizen and embarked on the path of revenge was all because of Tsunayashiro's evil.
A holy light shone over the Tsunayashiro residence, illuminating this filthy place with golden splendor.
In the light, a slender figure appeared vaguely, and finally the illusory light and shadow completely solidified, and a woman appeared in front of the two men.
"Is that the miracle you want me to witness?"
Rukia looked at the beautiful woman being easily embraced by Bai Yuetong, and her heart could not calm down for a long time.
"here it is?"
Ge Kuang still seemed a little confused about the situation.
In response to this, Bai Yuetong chose to pass on a lot of information to the other party through kissing, and Ge Kuang naturally widened his eyes and showed a shocked expression.
"Congratulations, Ge Kuang. How does it feel to travel through time?"
Bai Yuetong said with a smile.
"It was a wonderful experience. I want to thank you for saving my life. I still feel like I'm in a dream and can't believe I'm having such a fantastic experience."
Ge Kuang seemed to be very receptive and didn't hesitate for too long. She soon smiled and spoke in a gentle and kind tone. She exuded an aura of maternal love.
"Wait, time travel, what does that mean?"
Rukia grasped the point sharply.
"Because the Miss Utahara you see now, her life has not yet developed to the point where she actually married Tsunayashiro Tokinada and was then killed by him."
Bai Yuetong showed a playful expression, "In other words, the one who appears before you now is the younger Miss Kakuang from the past. Her life is still stuck at the point when she first visited Tsunayashiro's house."
"What? You're saying that you didn't simply resurrect the dead Miss Kakuang, but changed history? How is that possible?!
But once the past changes, it will definitely affect everything in the present, so why do I still remember what you told me about Miss Ge Kuang?"
Rukia exclaimed, her mind a little confused.
"Perhaps you deliberately maintained the original history. You sealed me in the alien space that sucked me into the earth in the past, and then unsealed me now, awakening me from my years of sleep."
Ge Kuang thought for a moment and guessed, "During the time when I was sealed, perhaps you created another 'me' to go through those tragedies on my behalf?
Or maybe some unknown force has changed the past cognition of most of the people involved, so that their cognition has retained their original memories and ideas over the years. "

Chapter 85: Ge Kuang’s tragic past and Fei Zhen’s chance for resurrection.
"Your guesses are mostly correct. Your 'time travel' this time is essentially me sealing your past self and re-awakening you now. It doesn't mean that I directly crossed the long river of time and grabbed you from the past to the present."
Bai Yuetong nodded slightly, "Because I was worried that the impact on the past would be too great and lead to unnecessary changes in the present, I did try my best to maintain the original history on the surface.
But in essence, my behavior this time has changed the original history, and it should still have some impact on the present. There must be many subtle differences from the real history, and it may even have caused major changes.
Moreover, I have no intention of creating another Kakuang to repeat that tragic fate. I changed the past cognition of most of the Tsunayashiro clan members and used Kakuang's data to create a lifelike corpse and a Zanpaku Umbrella Sword [Kiyomushi]."
Although it was just the object of his own experiment, since he had already succeeded in getting Ge Kuang, there was no reason for him to hand it over to others. Even if it was just a mindless doll, Bai Yuetong did not want to see his things being ruined by others, so Bai Yuetong did not take the most reliable plan of creating a Ge Kuang to replace the prince.
This was not out of "love", it was just that Bai Yuetong's possessiveness was too strong.
"Tosen-chan?"
Rukia seemed to remember something and couldn't help but sigh.
Although she was a victim of Tosen Kaname and Aizen's plan, after learning about Tosen Kaname's life, she couldn't help but feel sorry for him.
"want……"
A trace of pity appeared on Ge Kuang's face.
It is obvious that what Bai Yuetong does not want to change is the history that Dongxian will continue on that path, so the tragedy that Dongxian wants will still happen.
At the same time, she also remembered the information that Bai Yuetong had just passed on to her, that was about Tsunayashiro Tokinada, who would have become her husband, and another good friend who died for her.
Although it was a pity that he failed to dispel the dark cloud over Tsunayashiro Tokinada, Utahara felt extremely uneasy about letting another good friend die because of him and even bearing the bad reputation, especially now that he was the only one alive.
In the original history, Tsunayashiro Tokinada, the last in command of the branch family, married a woman named Utamachi at the behest of the main family.
Utahara was discovered by chance by the Tsunayashiro family. She was a woman with certain qualities hidden deep in her soul. When she was taking the academy test to become a Shinigami, she was captured by Tsunayashiro's "Watcher" eye.
At that time, the Tsunayashiro family was searching for people who possessed that kind of [Cultivation], and through various experiments, they were tormented, and ultimately, from their tragic end, they would extract the [fragments] that would become [Cultivation].
Then, they considered that if the person with [literacy] they were pursuing gave birth to a child, would that [literacy] be passed on in the form of a complete transfer, would it become diluted, or would it not be transferred?
Or maybe, will it increase in value through giving birth?
Thus, although the idea of incorporating [cultivation] into the family of the Tsunayashiro family was very attractive to them, the woman in question was a resident of Rukongai who was looked down upon by them as a poor person.
Therefore, the key members of the Tsunayashiro family planned to try with the person who ranked last in the branch family, because there was a clear hierarchy in the Tsunayashiro clan.
Tokinada followed the instructions from the head family and pretended to pick up the woman by accident.
Although he felt unhappy that even marriage was dictated by the family's instructions, Tokinada wanted to see the expression of a powerless woman at the moment she fell from the peak of happiness to the bottom of hell.
At the moment when everything was irreversible, [I never loved you. You were just chosen as an experimental subject of the Tsunayashiro family.]
If the truth were placed before her like this, what expression would she have?
Tokinada imagined that moment, and felt sadistically curious about the woman who was a pitiful lamb.
Then, he used his false gentleness and his status as weapons to easily control the woman's heart. He thought he had it.
On the night of the wedding, Tokinada revealed everything.
"If you regret your engagement now, you will not be the only one to be punished, but also the people of Rukongai where you come from. Even the friend named Kaname whom you often mention cannot be let off easily."
At this point, what kind of ridiculous expression of despair would emerge?
Tokinada cast his eyes towards her with full expectation——but that expectation was easily betrayed.
The woman named Ge Kuang had already seen through everything. She said that it was on this basis that she married Shi Tan.
Perhaps, he guessed that if he refused, the blame would be directed to his relatives and friends who stayed in his hometown from that point on.
Regardless, Kakuang's way of thinking is incomprehensible to Tokinada.
As Tokinada feels lost and anxious, Utahara begins to gain power as a Shinigami, and Ukitake and Kyōraku, who have been classmates with Tokinada since their academy days, admire her strength.
If this continues, everything will be taken away. My existence will be eroded.
Even though Tokinada felt this anxiety, his family would not allow him to kill Utahara or divorce his wife.
Because to the main family, Utahara is a precious experimental subject, and Tokinada is just an experimental instrument prepared for analysis.
But at this moment, a person who accidentally learned about the Tsunayashiro family's plan appeared. He was a Shinigami of commoner origin who was treated as a relative or friend on the surface.
He and Utamasa are also relatives and friends, and perhaps he has good intentions towards her. He wants to save Utamasa from the Tsunayashiro family, so he calls Tokinada out late at night and questions her true intentions.
So, Tokinada simply told him the truth, including that he had no love for Kakuang at all.
Perhaps Tokinada could not disobey the clan's order and pretend to be deeply in love with his wife, but Tokinada's inherent nature would not allow this.
He wanted to see what kind of expression a man would have when he realized that the person he thought was a friend or relative was just a heretic.
And just as Tokinada, the big bitch, had expected, the man said something like “I will kill you as a friend” after showing a look of despair.
Tokinada smiled and drew his Zanpakutō. Their strength was comparable, so it wouldn't be surprising who won or lost.
However, something unexpected happened that night. Fearing that Tokinada would go out at night and never come back, Utahara, who had gone out to look for her husband, heard the sound of swords clashing and appeared at the place.
