he came from the void

Both of them looked at him in surprise. This person has strength, but it seems to be used in strange places. He really doesn't want to waste a drop of wine.

"My name is Kahn, and this is my fiancée Kaisha." After Kahn introduced, he clinked glasses with Kaisha and drank it down.

The wine is smooth in the mouth, clear and pleasing to the throat, but it has a little bit of bitterness.

Kaisha stretched out her finger to help Kahn wipe off the plum wine overflowing from the corner of his mouth, and licked it on the tip of her tongue. This was enough to prove that Kahn's words were true, and they couldn't do such an intimate act if they weren't married.

Yasuo was a little embarrassed to see them being so open-minded. It was his turn to say their names, but he hesitated when he got to his lips.

He drank the wine slowly, but it took him a long time to say the name that made him feel ashamed. All Ionia knew who he was.

"Yasuo."

Seeing that Kahn and the others didn't respond, Yasuo realized that he was thinking too much.Since the two of them would come here now, they came because they knew him.

No one else minds, what else do you mind.

"What are you talking about?"

"About you." Kahn poured another round of wine: "Why did you come to Weili?"

Yasuo shook the wine in the glass in a daze, looking at the dancing fire in the reflection, and the voice of vicissitudes floated on the liquid.

"There used to be an elder who was able to use swordsmanship to divert the direction of the wind, and so could his apprentice. One day he was found dead by Yufeng swordsmanship, and the only apprentice who could use Yufeng swordsmanship naturally became a murderer."

"I admit that I was wrong for leaving my post on the day of the accident, but I definitely didn't kill the elder. But what's the use? The whole of Ionia thinks that I killed Elder Suma. They sent pursuers to arrest me , I don’t want to be punished, because this is equivalent to admitting to an unwarranted crime, and will let the real culprit go unpunished.”

"The Blossoming Spirit Flower in Weili can let the spirits of the living and the dead meet for the last time. This is my only chance to prove my innocence, so I came here."

These words made Kahn immediately realize some problems with Yasuo.

Although Yasuo was ashamed to say his name, he didn't hide his awareness at all.They come to Weili Street in a grand manner without changing their clothes, and they can be recognized at a glance. Some mean that they do not change their names and sit without changing their surnames? The way they handle things is not smooth at all.

"Even if you saw the spirit of Elder Suma and he told you the truth, but these are all your one-sided words? No witnesses or evidence? Your innocence still cannot be proved. How can you still take the spirit flower?" Please go to court?"

"I just need to have a clear conscience." Yasuo closed his eyes, his chest heaving.

It seems that when I say this word? I am being questioned in my heart.

"Do you have a clear conscience? Or are you afraid to face it?" Kahn crossed his arms and suddenly found it very interesting.

"So? What about those who died because of you? They didn't know the truth? They were just ordered to arrest you? Then they died by your sword. What did they do wrong?"

Faces flashed through his mind? Yasuo couldn't help raising his eyebrows, but still didn't open his eyes.Then he let out a long sigh? His chest was retracted.

"I'm guilty? But I can't stop looking for the truth."

He knows very well that once he stops, the guilt will drag down the unruly wind.

Kaisha saw that the bowl was empty, so she quietly took the wine jar and filled it up.

"Things have developed like this, the truth is no longer important. The mistakes made can no longer be made up? But if this makes you feel better, I will tell you how to find the truth." Kahn took the bowl and drank a long drink a mouthful.

Yasuo finally opened his eyes, the reflection of the clear wine reflected his still vicissitudes, but now there was a gleam of brilliance in his eyes.

"First of all, I want to tell you that not only will the Blossoming Spirit Flower not bloom this year, but it won't bloom in the next five or six years. You won't be able to see the people you want to see for the time being, and your life in exile will not stop so soon."

An advertisement, the reading app I've been using recently, \app\ has a lot of book sources, all books, and updates quickly!

Yasuo's hands trembled slightly, and the spirit flower did not bloom in the past few years. Everyone knew that this was the aftermath of the war, but no one knew how long it would last.

But the foreigner in front of him can tell the time, which is unusual.

"Why do you know?"

"You just need to know that I don't have to lie to you." Kahn continued: "I guess you didn't go to the crime scene to see it."

Yasuo shook his head: "I wanted to go to the battle that day and contribute my sword skills on the battlefield. But I found that I went late, and something terrible and weird happened on the battlefield. Hundreds of Noxus and Ioni The body of the sub-human lay down in the muddy early rainy night. When I returned to the dojo in a daze, I was accused of killing the elders. Before I saw the body, those people did it. I realized that I was wronged, and then I broke free from arrest and escaped, and never had a chance to go back.”

He raised the sword, looked at the blade, and then gently blew off the thin dust on it.He still had a fresh memory of the corpses that littered the field that night, and it was definitely not something that could be stopped with a single blow.

If he had been there, he might have died there too.

"There is no perfect crime in the world, and there must be clues left on the scene. Go to the bone washing worker in the temple, and maybe you will find something."

Bone washing workers are so-called corpse collectors.After the corpses of the elders were buried in the sky, the skeleton workers would collect the bones and process them.If there is something abnormal about the body, they will find something.

Yasuo nodded to indicate that he had made a note of it, but he did not plan to leave Weili immediately, but had to wait until after Zhanchun.

Elder Suma was not the only person he met.

Kahn seemed to see what was on his mind, smiled and said, "Let's talk about another thing."

Chapter 377 Demon

Is there anything else to talk about?

Yasuo took a sip of wine and waited for the next sentence.

"If you say that the thing you regret the most is that you left the sword school impulsively to go to the battlefield that night, then what is the second regret for you?"

Yasuo frowned, and asked a harsh question, which was the one that made him regret the most by asking him so many crimes.

Leaving AWOL is of course the one thing he regrets the most. If he hadn't left that night, so many things wouldn't have happened later, one wrong step at a time.

Even if he proves that the elder was not killed by him, the death of others is irreversible.

And among the many mistakes he made, apart from leaving his post without authorization, what he regrets most is nothing more than...

"In the process of escaping from the hunt, I met the most terrifying opponent in my life—the wind chaser Yone. Yone is my fellow disciple and my elder brother. In order to give people an explanation, for the honor of being a swordsman, He must and must come and bring me to justice."

Maybe it was Yasuo's superior skills, or maybe Yongen couldn't bear to kill, and in the end he died under Yasuo's sword.

The force of his fingers made the plum wine in the bowl start to tremble. Whenever Yasuo recalled this scene, he would always think of a sentence Yone said to him-throw away the honor, and only care is left.

Kahn nodded, Yasuo can stretch but not bend, he will definitely not go back with Yong En, this battle is unavoidable.

"I killed Yong En with my own hands. When he was dying, I said that I did not kill the elder and begged his forgiveness. But before he died, Yong En just told me that it was the Yufeng swordsmanship that killed Elder Suma, and I He is the only one who can possibly master this technique."

Yone didn't say a word of forgiveness until his death, which made Yasuo very guilty.

When he came to Weili to visit the spirit, the only people he wanted to see were his master and elder brother.

"If the Blossoming Spirit Flower doesn't bloom, you won't be able to see it." Kai'Sa knelt down on the ground and put her hands flat on her thighs.

"The earth is healed, and it will bloom. I will wait until that day." He fed the wine to the blade, and a ring of wind visible to the naked eye rubbed the blade, and the blood on the blade was washed away with the dripping wine.

Even if the truth is proven in the future, he still wants to see the two of them for the last time.

The change of others is not as important to him as the forgiveness of these two people.

"What if Yong En is not dead?"

"It's not funny at all..." Yasuo looked at Karn with a serious expression, but he didn't see any signs of drunkenness.He said, "I killed him with my own hands."

"Is a person who has died once really dead? If the spirit returns to the body, can he be reborn?"

In Ionia, death carried people from the physical realm to the spiritual realm, but here the veil between the two worlds is so thin that going back and forth does not seem inconceivable.

"It's impossible to come back from the dead..." Yasuo clenched his fists, "Don't make fun of this kind of thing."

Kahn continued to pour the wine, and said unhurriedly: "He died by your hands, but he lives because of his inner demons."

"Demon?!" Yasuo suddenly opened his eyes wide, but there was some confusion in the pupils.

The inner demons in the population of Ionia often refer to the bottlenecks encountered in cultivation, and they have been suffering for a long time from being unable to break through the demonic barriers that came into being.

This spiritual thing obviously does not have the ability to resurrect people, at least Yasuo has never said such a bizarre thing.

But the demon in Kahn's mouth refers to the embryonic form or juvenile body of the demon.

They are called Yazakana, and they are predatory spirits that wander beyond the veil.Suck the negative emotions of the host until it devours the host and grows into a real demon.

Before the war, there was no sign of Azakana activity in Ionia.They followed the Noxian invasion from Valoran.

The blood and fire brought by the war aroused a series of negative emotions such as hatred, grief, and guilt, and naturally attracted this demon that feeds on negative emotions.

It's not the same thing, so it's normal for Yasuo to misunderstand and not believe it.

After Kahn explained it clearly, Yasuo finally changed from disbelief to doubt about Yongen's resurrection from the dead.

If it is an external force, it is not sure whether he can be resurrected.

"Where is that brother now? I want to see him." Yasuo said.

"Although Yongen came back from the dead, he has become a stranger to you. Resurrection has a price, and hunting Yazakana has become his most important goal."

Although Yongen was reborn, the inner demon returned to the material realm with him and lived on his body forever.Yone needs to find the real name of the Yazakana on his body in order to remove it from his body.

"Then I want to see him even more, and I will go with the truth." Yasuo said, he couldn't wait to prove his innocence to Yone.

"Do you know why his inner demons were born?"

Memories flashed before Yasuo's eyes. At the moment when the Gale Blade and the two knives intersected and the victory was over, Yong En's guilty gaze resurfaced in his mind.

Yasuo knew that Yong En's greatest guilt was that as an elder brother, he did not fulfill his duty of teaching his younger brother well.

"The truth is no longer important to him, what matters is whether you can inherit his will and pick up the honor of being a swordsman."

Yasuo already knew what honor was.He nodded and put the sword back into the scabbard.

"If you still want to find him, you can go to the Apocalypse in the Palace of Eternal Existence. If you can convince her, it shouldn't be difficult to find someone for you. But it's best to wait until you find out what happened back then, otherwise those monks I may not let you in." Kahn changed the subject: "Or, wait slowly, and wait until Yongen is attracted by your inner demon, and we will meet."

"I also have inner demons?" Yasuo asked in surprise.

"You should know it in your heart." Kahn took a last sip of his drink, and then got up.

"I've said all I need to say. I just don't want you to bring disputes here and disturb Zhanchun. This festival needs tranquility."

Maybe there is also the guilt of intercepting someone else's lover halfway, Kahn thought.

"Who made me an unwelcome liar." Yasuo laughed at himself, and drank a large bowl of wine, his laughter was full of bitterness.

There was still half a jug of wine left, but Kahn was ready to leave with Kaisha.But when he got to the door, he suddenly remembered something.

"By the way, if you find the murderer, remember to take away the weapon that killed Elder Suma."

"Why?" Yasuo was puzzled.

"The murder weapon that can kill Elder Suma must be a dangerous thing. If it continues to stay there, it will still cause disasters and hurt innocent people. You are alone, so it is better for you to deal with that thing."

Is this also my responsibility?Yasuo thought about it, and when he came back to his senses, Kahn had taken Kai'sa and disappeared into the dilapidated ancestral hall without even saying goodbye.

Looking at the remaining half jar of wine, he thought for a while and sealed the lid.

Drinking was a mistake, he has too many thoughts to sort out now, so it's better not to drink.

Chapter 378 Interlude

When I came back, it was snowing slightly outside, and it was no surprise that this would be the last snow this winter.

After drinking some wine, both of them felt something, and got into bed early, looking for warmth in each other's body.

Lying on her side on the bed and propping her head with one hand, Kaisha expressed her feelings: "Zhanchun is really a strange festival, so many people rush to visit the spirit, who will be next?"

Kai'Sa saw some Noxians in plain clothes appearing in Weili, and began to work hard to integrate into the local life. They were all deserters.But life is very hard, not being welcomed by the locals, but at the same time avoiding the army from Noxus, because the empire's punishment for deserters is very harsh.

They also want to commemorate the dead comrades in this special festival and pay tribute to those Noxians who died for the country, so they started to build the statue a few days before the Blossom Festival.

But this was tantamount to an insult to the Ionians, so they were ruthlessly driven away and could only be transferred to a small island in the middle of the bay to perform the ceremony.

"Who knows." Kahn thought of certain people, and there were more than just those who lost their loved ones in the war.

Irelia, the leader of the resistance during the war, lost all her loved ones in the early days of the war.If it is convenient, she may also come to Weili.

But it's best not to come, otherwise Noxus will never miss such a good opportunity to attack the enemy leader after receiving the intelligence.

The impact of the war on the land of birth is too great. The reason why Zhanchun has become so "lively" is in the final analysis the changes brought about by the imbalance between the two worlds.

Because they were talking about heavy topics, the two of them had no further plans. They cut each other's hair before going to bed, and then looked at each other and closed their eyes.In their sleep, the two of them automatically fit together like a magnet, as if they had an instinctive reaction, and slept peacefully until dawn.

……

Early this morning, Kahn and Kai'Sa opened their eyes early and crawled out of the warm blanket.

It's not that they don't want to linger in bed for a while, but that there are noisy voices from the street outside the window, which is noisier than usual.

One bad thing about sleeping naked in cold weather is that it is especially difficult to get up, so Kahn shivered on the bed, then stretched out his hand and rubbed Kaisha’s warm cloth a few times, and got out of bed to open the window after getting enough heat , want to see why it is so noisy outside.

As soon as he opened the window, Kaisha screamed.

"What's wrong?" Kahn looked back, and Kaisha was standing by the bed with her hands folded, her slender legs tightly clamped, her eyes staring at him with resentment.

"Close the window, I'm not dressed yet!" She waved her fist nervously, feigning anger.
