Sanemi struggled desperately, but the binding force grew stronger and stronger.
The next moment, the Guhuoniao's body seemed to turn into a swamp, dragging him in little by little.
“Come back to your mother, my dear child. Here there is no pain, no betrayal.”
The sound of the Guhuoniao (a mythical bird) penetrated deep into his brain, becoming increasingly indistinct.
"Let's be together forever..."
A strong sense of dizziness washed over me, and the surrounding scenery distorted and warped.
As the red mist dissipated, Sanemi looked around in astonishment.
Damp and run-down, noisy yet warm.
My own home, the home with my mother, younger brother, and younger sister.
His body became thin and small.
Mother Shizu's belly was swollen; she was carrying her youngest child, Sumi.
Genmi and his younger siblings were playing.
At that moment, the door was kicked open!
Sanemi's pupils constricted sharply, and he stood there stunned.
That person, the one who carried all his hatred and resentment deep in his memory!
Shinazugawa Kyōgo, reeking of alcohol, staggered in and grabbed Shizu's hair.
"Useless piece of trash! You can't even keep the house tidy! I work myself to the bone outside, and when I come home, there's not even a hot meal for me!"
He slapped Shizu hard across the face.
Shizu staggered and fell to the ground, his cheek red and swollen.
With bloodshot eyes, Sanemi rushed forward and pushed her father away.
Shinazugawa Kyōgo took a few steps back and bumped into the wall.
He stared at Sanemi, his face contorted with rage.
"You little brat! You've gone too far! How dare you hit me!"
He pounced on her, pinning her to the ground and raining down punches and insults.
Sanemi struggled desperately, but his small body was no match for an adult man.
Genmi and the other children rushed forward crying, but Gongwu kicked them away.
"Get out of here! You bunch of good-for-nothings! I should have sold you all out!"
A familiar sense of despair and anger welled up in my chest.
Looking at his father's ferocious face, and at the tears of his mother and younger siblings, all of Sanemi's resentment erupted at that moment!
He kicked his father aside, got up in a disheveled state, and gripped the Nichirin Blade.
"You damned scoundrel, you've always lived your own way and never cared about your family's feelings!"
"We don't know how much we've endured, how much we've suffered, from your fists and your insults!"
"You've brought only pain to this family!"
Kyougo was intimidated by the murderous intent in Sanemi's eyes and took a few steps back.
"I regretted it then..."
Sanemi slowly drew his sword, his voice cold and sharp.
"I regret that you died too young, stabbed to death by someone else because of a personal grudge!"
Sanemi smiled cruelly.
"I still want to kill you with my own hands!"
Chapter 130 The Voice of Nothingness
After Sanemi finished speaking, he suddenly drew his sword!
Without the slightest hesitation, the cyan blade flashed past!
The head flew off, and blood splattered on the dilapidated wall.
Shinazugawa Kyogo.
The father, who haunted Sanemi's nightmares, collapsed to the ground.
The surrounding space peeled away inch by inch, twisting and deforming!
The images of home, mother, and younger siblings were like reflections in water, swirling and quickly dissipating.
Instead, there were countless writhing, grotesque demons!
They roared and snarled, stretching out their sharp claws to pounce on Shimi!
"Get away!!!"
Enraged, Sanemi swung his sword and slashed!
The wind blade tore through the air and passed straight through the demon's body without causing any damage.
The demons' claws also became ethereal when they touched him, leaving no trace whatsoever.
Sanemi's attack methods were completely ineffective.
His strikes and his fury were all swallowed up by this living, fleshy wall, without even causing a ripple.
"Damn it! Damn it!"
Sanemi growled angrily.
He also realized that useless attacks were just a waste of energy.
After calming down, he looked around but couldn't find any exit.
Is there absolutely no way to break this deadlock?
Sanemi murmured, feeling a deep sense of powerlessness.
Meanwhile, Kubino Tadachi, shrouded in red mist, remained vigilant about his surroundings.
His five senses were severely impaired, and his vision was limited to only a few feet.
"Sanemi! Sanemi!"
He shouted loudly, but no one responded.
Just then, a clear female voice rang in my ears.
"Here...come...here..."
Kubino Masachika quickly turned around, but found no one there.
The voice didn't answer, it just repeated itself.
"On the right...come...here..."
Kugeno Kusanagi raised an eyebrow.
But he knew he couldn't escape the red mist, so he could only gamble by following the voice.
Following the guidance, Kubino Tadashi explored step by step.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, the red mist ahead began to thin out.
An elegant boudoir gradually came into view, filled with the fragrance of cosmetics.
On the dressing table sat an expensive rouge comb and a gleaming bronze mirror.
"Mirror...look in the mirror..."
The voice sounded again, and Kumino Masachika became suspicious, but still followed the instructions and walked to the dressing table.
The bronze mirror was perfectly normal, with nothing suspicious about it.
"No...there...look again..."
Kuang Jin stared intently at the scene, repeatedly turning back to look.
Finally, in the corner of the mirror, wisps of red smoke rose from an inconspicuous incense burner.
The source is here!
Without hesitation, Kamino Masachika slashed down with his Nichirin Blade!
The incense burner shattered upon impact.
As the red mist dissipated, the surrounding environment rapidly collapsed, and everything returned to normal.
Not far away, Sanemi also broke free from the Ubume's abdominal space and looked around blankly.
Kuang Jin, are you alright?
"Yes! I've found the source of the red mist!"
Kuang Jin provided a quick explanation.
Both of them looked towards the center of the room at the same time.
"Ahhhh!!!"
A venomous roar echoed.
The Guhuoniao had lost all compassion; its delicate features were twisted and ferocious.
"Naughty child!!!"
She stared intently at Kamino Masachika, her voice shrill: "Naughty children must be punished!!"
No sooner had the words left her mouth than the figure of the Guhuoniao vanished, its sharp claws aimed straight for Kugeno Kusanagi's throat!
Sanemi swung his sword to meet him.
Kubino Masachika reacted and unleashed his sword technique.
