Collapse Iron Live Broadcast Connects All Worlds, Scares Away Wuzhan at the Beginning

"Oh! I understand!" Kagura said with a grin, "Gin just likes this stubborn idiot Aru!"

"Shut up! Eat your jealous kelp!"

-

"With the help of these will-o'-the-wisp fires, Fuyan is more confident in fighting against everyone. It started the battle again, and fought with Xing and the others to a stalemate."

Huo Huo was worried about Fu Yan's near-endless recovery, but Wei Ba simply said, "Don't worry. Although Sui Yang has no form, he's not invincible to tangible things. Fu Yan is just holding on."

"Once it believes it has lost on a spiritual level, even the most powerful Sui Yang will find it difficult to gather together like this."

"And right now, the only one who can make it feel defeated on a spiritual level is the general."

"As we were talking, Jing Yuan had already strolled to Sui Garden."

"As the battle she had long awaited was about to begin, Fu Yan suddenly became excited: "You're finally here, General Luofu. Are you finally willing to play against me?"

"Jing Yuan kept his promise and didn't go back on it. He just kindly warned before the fight, "However, as I said before, Liao Yuan and Teng Xiao were evenly matched at the time. But for you, Fu Yan, this chess match was never fair from the start—I'm completely superior to you."

"Following the rules and being evenly matched are common illusions for chess players. Let me teach you how to play the final game."

"Accompanied by Fuyan's sinister laugh, the underworld messenger boy it possessed suddenly grew countless times larger, like a mountain towering into the clouds. Fuyan wore a confident smile, and its shadow completely enveloped Jingyuan."

-

Still Gintama.

"Hey, hey... this is too much!" Gintoki's eyes widened. "What's going on? It's suddenly more expensive than the bill in Kabukicho!?"

Shinpachi's glasses were glaring wildly, and his voice was trembling. "T-This isn't a duel between warriors anymore, is it?! This is basically a monster movie!"

In the sky, Jing Yuan's figure was as small as an ant under the huge shadow of floating smoke, but there was still a relaxed smile on the corner of his mouth.

Gin-san was silent for two seconds and scratched his ears: "But... this closed-eye general reminds me of a certain idiot."

"Eh? Who is that?" Shinpachi asked in confusion.

"That guy... the one who's always saying 'Ahaha', but when he gets serious, he's scarier than anyone else." Gin-san pointed at the sky. "Even when the enemy is practically blocking the moon, he's still as relaxed as if he's queuing at a dessert shop."

"Are you talking about Mr. Sakamoto?" Shinpachi was shocked. "That's not right! General Jingyuan is obviously more stable... Wait, Gin-san, you are not referring to yourself, are you?!"

"Huh?! Who wants to compare themselves to a guy like Sakamoto?! I can actually run away when I'm nervous!"

Kagura suddenly took out the vinegared kelp and used it as a telescope to observe: "But Gin, when you fought with the Night King last time, didn't you also..."

"Shut up! How can that be the same? That was to keep JUMP serialized!"

-

"Human victory or defeat means nothing to me. We have our own rules."

"The enlarged Fuyan stretched out a finger, trying to crush Jingyuan, who seemed so tiny to it, like an ant."

"The moment his knuckles pressed down, bursts of golden lightning suddenly erupted from the swirling dust and smoke. The Divine Lord's massive palm steadily caught the attack from the floating smoke. The lightning rapidly expanded along with the Divine Lord's massive body, like a towering Dharma image, raising its sharp edge towards it."

"The once burly Fu Yan was now just a struggling wisp under the Divine Lord's sword. Apart from the shock and astonishment in his eyes, he could do nothing."

"Floating Smoke closed its eyes. Facing the Divine Lord's sword that could have slashed Haishan, it could only subconsciously block with both hands. However, what it ultimately received was not a blow, but a light touch on its forehead, and Jing Yuan's nonchalant voice."

““General.”

-

One Punch Man.

Genos's mechanical pupils constricted slightly, and his core processor hummed softly from overanalysis. The overwhelming pressure from the Divine Lord's slashing blow instantly blanked his mind... His eyes were filled with only a dazzling golden lightning.

--die.

This was the only thought in his mind.

(The feeling of despair that only a single, serious punch from the teacher could bring to me back then... can it now be transmitted through the sky?)

(It seems the threat level of the Envoy needs to be reassessed.)

"Teacher..." He turned to Saitama, who was digging his ears, and his voice trembled in a rare way. "Did you see the power of that knife?"

Saitama yawned. "Huh? Oh... it's pretty big. If it were on Earth, it should be able to kill a lot of monsters, right?"

"Teacher! Please take the strength of a Commander-level warrior seriously!" Genos raised his voice, a rare occurrence. "A powerful warrior of this level, if in the future—"

"Genos." Saitama patted his disciple's shoulder. "You're overanalyzing again. Your assumptions are the kind of thing only an Order of Destruction would do."

"Besides, given Jing Yuan's personality, he might be more worried about what to eat the next day than considering an opponent of Fu Yan's level."

"I see, so diet is one of the many considerations..."

After Saitama returned to the living room, Genos pulled up the data panel and secretly updated it again:

Chapter 256: Thousand Stars Journey PV: "Suiyuan Fugui Ji" (Part 1)

"Faced with the enormous disparity in strength, Fuyan can only choose to admit defeat, and what awaits it is eternal punishment."

"Although its fighting spirit has crumbled for now, Fuyan still hopes for a chance to make a comeback in the future. Suiyang is immortal, so they will always have a chance."

"After dealing with Fuyan, the ghost hunting team's operations have come to an end. After experiencing the Suiyang Change, Huohuo's tail has returned to its seal, Suchang has gained another topic to talk about after her 50-50 fight with Yanqing, Xiaoguizi has obtained a high-follower account, and Xingye Jingyuan has received Xingqiong... everyone has a bright future."

-

grim Reaper.

Kuchiki Byakuya sat in the tea room of the Sixth Division's barracks, watching the Suiyang Change on the sky come to a smooth end. The corners of Byakuya's mouth rose slightly, almost imperceptibly.

Suddenly, the falling cherry blossoms outside the window were disturbed by a spiritual pressure, and Makoto Hirako was hanging upside down on the window coffin with her golden bangs hanging down.

"Oh? It's rare to see you smile. Are you so interested in the Luofu Immortal Boat?" Pingzi rolled over and slid into the tea room, picking up the snacks in front of Baiya.

Byakuya closed his eyes and sipped his strong tea silently, "Breaking into someone else's teahouse without permission, is this the etiquette of the Fifth Division?"

"Don't be so serious~" Pingzi sat down cross-legged, twirling the empty teacup between his fingers. "During this incident, aren't you curious about an organization in Xianzhou?"

Byakuya put down the teacup and narrowed his eyes slightly: "What?"

"Ten Kings Division."

"Based on the current intelligence, the Juousi is an organization completely independent of the Senshu. If I were to make an analogy... I think it's very similar to the relationship between the real world and Soul Society—at least in terms of their functions."

"Those who come out of the Juuousi are called 'Mingcha' and 'Judge'... Don't you think this term sounds a lot like 'Death God'? Do you think our Soul Society has some kind of connection with the Juuousi of the Senshu?"

Byakuya glanced at him sideways and said calmly, "It's just a superficial guess. Soul Society has existed for more than a few thousand years. And there's another problem. The location of Juouji seems extremely mysterious. Ordinary people don't have the opportunity to see it."

"As for the relationship you mentioned...it would be great if I could see Juouji in person—"

"Wait, Byakuya, the image on the screen seems to have changed." Hirako Mako suddenly interrupted him, pointing her finger at the sky. "This time, the image seems to show... Huo Huo?"

-

"When the immortal boatmen traveled beyond the heavens, they were bound to encounter strange and mysterious creatures, and thus many supernatural stories arose."

"On the sky screen, Huo Huo was holding a compass and moving forward according to the direction it indicated."

"Her target was a distant mountain, shrouded in a perpetual gray fog. Jagged rocks jutted out from the cliffs like withered ghost claws. Ancient trees twisted and tangled in the mountain, their dry branches crackling in the wind like bones rubbing against each other."

“That day, a novice judge from the Ten Kings Division received a decree to subdue a demon…”

Huo Huo finally climbed the mountain, only to find the gate shrouded in a gloomy atmosphere. The two lanterns hanging at the entrance looked like bright fangs, eager to devour her. She closed her eyes in fear and trotted forward. Along the way, she heard soft footsteps. Opening her eyes, she saw two boys standing by the roadside.

-

Dragon clan.

"This narration voice...should it be Tail?"

"Remove the 'should' and it's just the tail." Chu Zihang sighed softly. "Although I don't know what they are playing, the content on the screen seems to be a scene of Huo Huo, who had just joined the Ten Kings Division not long ago, exorcising demons and ghosts."

"Also, I just noticed... the directional markings on Huo Huo's compass are the Bagua diagram, right? Isn't that something unique to your country?" Caesar frowned. Although he wasn't good at history, he could still recognize this iconic cultural symbol. "Why is there a Bagua diagram on the immortal ship?"

Bagua has a history of thousands of years. It is said that it originated from Fuxi, who was known as the "first of a hundred kings" in Chinese civilization. Although Caesar was not very interested in Bagua, he vaguely knew that it was a very powerful thing.

"Maybe it's... 'The Way of Heaven is not secret'?" Chu Zihang judged.

"...What secret?" Caesar felt his head swell up.

"Have you ever heard of Baguazhang?" Chu Zihang simply changed the question.

"I have heard of it." Caesar has shown a fighting talent far beyond his peers since he was a child, and his family has always been cultivating his combat skills. He has not learned all the famous martial arts in the world, but he has heard of them more or less from his teachers.

"The footwork and thigh muscle movements of Russian Georgian dance are similar to the 'Bagua Walking and Turning' of Baguazhang," Chu Zihang explained calmly. "Although the cultures of the two countries are different, what I have learned may also be learned by others on the other side of the world, they just use it in different ways."

"Oh..." Caesar seemed to understand, but also seemed not to understand, but his attention was elsewhere, "You also know Russian Georgian dance?"

"A female member of the Lionheart Club once took the initiative to invite me to watch a dance performance."

"So, what then?"

"...After the examination, we had dinner together. I noticed her face was very red and hot when she looked at me, so I concluded that she had a fever and sent her to a nearby hospital." Chu Zihang's expression suddenly became serious. "What's wrong?"

"No problem, I can only say... your handling of the matter is very much your style."

-

Huo Huo approached the two boys and asked, "Excuse me..."

"The two boys slowly turned around, their pale faces tinged with bluish-gray in the dim light. The corners of their mouths slowly widened, and their long, thin tongues, like scarlet snake tongues, almost reached the ground."

““Newcomer…”

""We must treat you well...""

"Their voices overlapped, like echoes squeezed from a rotting coffin."

““Woooa ...

Huo Huo finally couldn't help himself and ran away. He fled behind a dilapidated wall, breathing heavily with lingering fear. The two boys, on the other hand, jumped around like zombies, repeating "Welcome" over and over again.

"At this moment, the compass's direction changed again. A hand slowly emerged from the coffin not far away and lifted a tiny corner of the lid."

“No, that’s not the case…”

Huo Huo pulled out a copper coin sword from behind his back, tremblingly walked to the coffin, and cautiously stuck his head out to look inside.

"The coffin was empty, but a dark figure appeared behind her. Huo Huo turned back in fear, only to hear a strange crackling sound from the person's neck. The head twisted at a strange angle, and a pair of scarlet eyes stared at her intently."

““You…are the new guy?”

Chapter 257: Thousand Stars Journey PV: "Suiyuan Fugui Ji" (Part 2)

Teyvat, Liyue.

"Oh? Isn't this Miss Snowy?" Walnut was immediately happy. This gloomy atmosphere was quite similar to that. It was just that this place with mountains and rivers and filled with gloomy energy didn't seem like a fairy boat, but more like Teyvat.

"Judging from Miss Huo Huo's reaction, this should be the scene when she first started working, right?" Zhongli said from the side.

"...So this is the Juuousi?" Kurumi's eyes widened. "No way! I thought the Juuousi would be a very eerie place, but it's too scary to have it built in a place like this!"

"Haha... Hall Master, you don't know this."

Zhongli sat on a pearwood chair, holding a teacup, and said leisurely, "Just now, when Miss Huo Huo was searching for the location with a compass, I took a quick look. The Ten Kings' Office is located in Kan, facing the abyss, with a missing corner in the Gen Palace. The shape of the mountain it rests on resembles a dragon's spine split by a knife. There's a saying in Feng Shui about 'severing the dragon's power'. The Ten Kings' Office was chosen to be located here specifically to suppress the resentment of evil spirits."

"Oh my, Keqing, you even know Feng Shui so well... Is there anything in this world that you don't know?"

Hu Tao looked at Zhong Li with admiration. Honestly, she couldn't understand why. Her guest official didn't look very old. He'd been out every day either walking his bird or attending operas. He hadn't been seen poring over books, yet he spoke with such eloquence that he seemed to know everything about astronomy and geography.

"Master, you are too kind. Feng Shui is a very broad and profound subject. I only know a little bit."

-

“Are you okay?”

"I'll help you up..."

"A hand suddenly reached out to Huo Huo. She raised her head in confusion, only to be met with Jackdaw's pale face. She was so frightened that her soul flew away, and she split open the place where she stood—"

“Ah ...

"Huo Huo took off from the spot and tried his best to escape, but after passing the mountain gate, he didn't notice the stairs under his feet and just rolled down the mountain."

Huo Huo rubbed his head and got up from the ground. He saw an ancient door in front of him. The paper on the door had long been tattered and swayed weakly in the wind, making a "patting" sound, as if something was gently tapping it.
