Chapter 143. My dear son, you owe me a huge favor.
When Mo Fan arrived, he naturally saw the severely injured monks. To be honest, in Mo Fan's view, these monks had only themselves to blame for their fate.
Even so, he still needed to take action.
Because Zhao Manyan's soul is also within it.
All I can say is that this evil spirit was unlucky to have come and taint it.
"Release Zhao Manyan's soul. I have no say in your affairs," Mo Fan said to the demon spirit before him after arriving at the scene.
"His soul has already been refined by me, otherwise how could this cursed blood map exist!" Narahara Sora showed no mercy to Mo Fan, directly telling him this bloody truth!
"Sigh, how ignorant." Mo Fan shook his head, and the next moment, the spatial power and flames in his hand also fluctuated.
Narahara Sora's reckless provocation undoubtedly angered Mo Fan. Mo Fan, of course, would not spare his life.
Under Mo Fan's control, spatial and fire magic merged together, the two powerful forces colliding and fusing, emitting a heart-palpitating fluctuation.
Mo Fan unleashed his fusion skill "Burning Sky Slash," and in an instant, a dazzling yet terrifying light appeared.
The light contained the fusion of blazing flames and silver space, as if it could burn everything to ashes and tear everything apart.
"Buzzing!!!"
The flames grew even more violent as space twisted, like a ferocious beast lunging at Narahara Sora with bared fangs and claws.
The air whistled sharply under this immense force, blurring the surrounding scenery. Narahara Sora watched in horror, feeling the threat of death, but it was too late to escape.
The "Burning Sky Slash" struck Narahara Sky with overwhelming force, and the powerful impact caused deep cracks to appear in the ground.
Narahara Sora was instantly engulfed by this attack, his figure disappearing into the dazzling light.
As the light faded, Narahara Sora had vanished without a trace, leaving not a single mark.
With the annihilation of the evil spirit, its curse will also be completely dispelled. Mo Fan's actions not only saved Zhao Manyan, but also saved many others who had been possessed.
Although Mo Fan didn't want to save her, he had already done so, so there was no point in saying anything more.
After the matter was resolved, the monks went to the hospital, while Mo Fan returned to the temple.
When Mo Fan saw Zhao Manyan, the guy was still unaware of what had happened and said in confusion, "That's strange. I feel like I slept for a long time, but why did the sun just set when I woke up?"
"Remember, you owe your father a huge favor," Mo Fan said, looking at Zhao Manyan.
"ah?"
Zhao Manyan was even more confused. He had only taken a nap, so how could Mo Fan say that he owed him a huge favor?
"You'll understand after you sleep tonight," Mo Fan waved his hand, not elaborating.
"Are you crazy?!"
Zhao Manyan looked at Mo Fan as if he were some kind of serious illness.
The next morning, they prepared to leave West Bear City.
Because many of those whose souls were taken have awakened here, though they are all barely alive, the Inquisition will likely come here to conduct a thorough investigation.
When they left, Zhao Manyan also came out from the back mountain, and he was carrying a wooden fish vessel.
"Now, do you understand what kind of favor you owe me?" Mo Fan said.
Zhao Manyan was initially delighted, having gained a treasure for free. This kind of thing was something that money couldn't necessarily buy.
However, seeing Mo Fan repeat what he said yesterday, and also mention his dream from last night, Zhao Manyan couldn't help but become curious.
"What exactly happened?" Zhao Manyan asked.
If it were yesterday, he would have thought Mo Fan was crazy, but now, with the wooden fish in his hand, he couldn't help but wonder about the connection.
"Because, it was I who placed you into this vessel and then slew that evil spirit. With this vessel, your defensive capabilities will undoubtedly reach a new level. Moreover, it can save your life when it is threatened," Mo Fan said briefly.
"Really???" Zhao Manyan asked, becoming even more curious.
"Uh-huh."
Mo Fan simply nodded, but didn't say anything more.
Because, presumably, Baxia would give him some hints, allowing him to gain some understanding.
Everyone packed their bags, and the old monks, in a way, acted as human beings, using their status as Sakura to buy train tickets for everyone to go to Tokyo.
After boarding the train, they headed towards their next stop.
Trains are more comfortable than ships; at least you can sleep soundly there when you're tired.
Mo Fan was in good spirits. At this moment, Ai Jiangtu told Mo Fan, "Captain, we need to go to Osaka first."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Manyan asked curiously, "Aren't we going straight to Tokyo?"
"We need to exchange ideas with some of the renowned universities in Sakura, as our mentors specifically instructed. There's a Sakura National Museum in Osaka, so we have to get past Osaka before going to Tokyo," Ai Jiangtu said.
These were all things that the mentors had instructed Ai Jiangtu to do.
It's fair to say that Mo Fan is the captain, but aside from his abilities, he's not responsible for anything else within the team.
Although Ai Jiangtu was only a deputy captain, he took on all the work.
How much longer until we reach Osaka?
"It'll be soon."
"There are many sirens in the cherry blossom area. I've heard that some coastal areas around Osaka are famous for their naval battles. If we have enough time, we can go and take a look. I've heard the scenes are spectacular," Jiang Yu said.
Osaka is not a peaceful place, and its situation is somewhat similar to that of the ancient capital of the Great Xia Dynasty, where large-scale wars often occur.
Sirens are a super-powerful race among demons. Sakura is even more plagued by disasters than the Great Xia. Their buildings are all resistant to attack. Even if a normal siren tramples into the city, it is not certain that it can destroy those resistant buildings.
Osaka is actually not that bad; the most intense competition is in Tokyo.
That place is indeed the most prosperous capital city in Sakura, but it is also the largest war city in terms of naval warfare. Different races of sea monsters raid the beaches day and night, but they can never shake the solid coastal shield of Tokyo and Osaka. As a result, Tokyo and Osaka receive a large amount of resources from the corpses of monsters every day, making them extremely rich.
It could even be said that the sirens boosted the GDP of these two cities.
"Once we get to Tokyo, we'll definitely go to War City. We won't go to Osaka; our main goal is to cause trouble for their academy," Mo Fan said.
"Yeah, Tokyo's Battle City is one of the world's four major naval battlefields. There's not much to see in Osaka. Let's focus on taking care of that National Pavilion here and then go see some big scenes!" Jiang Yu said.
When the topic of demons came up, Jiang Yu perked up and rattled off a whole bunch of information about sea monsters.
However, he had some misconceptions about sirens, namely that he thought sirens had no interest in human territory.
However, in reality, the sirens in the Pacific Ocean were merely conserving their energy!
It's not that they're uninterested; they're just waiting for an opportunity to launch a counterattack!
Of course, Mo Fan didn't tell this, because telling it now wouldn't be believable, since the sea monsters in the Pacific Ocean hadn't made any significant moves for hundreds of years
