Chapter 377: Inner Demon
Is there anything else to talk about?
Yasuo took a sip of his wine and waited for the following.
"If the thing you regret the most is that you left the kendo school on the spur of the moment that night to go to the battlefield, then what is the second thing you regret?"
Yasuo's brows were furrowed, and he asked him harshly, which was the one that made him regret the most when he asked him so many crimes.
Leaving his post without permission is of course the one thing he regrets the most, if he hadn't left that night, so many things would not have happened later, one wrong step.
Even if he proves that he didn't kill the elders, the deaths of others are irretrievable.
And among the many mistakes he made, in addition to leaving his post without permission, the one he regretted the most was nothing more than ......
"In the process of escaping the pursuit, I met the most formidable opponent of my life, Wynn the Wind Chaser. Yon is my fellow disciple and my brother, and in order to give people an explanation, and for the sake of the honor of being a swordsman, he must and must come to arrest me. β
Maybe Yasuo was skilled, or maybe Yongen couldn't bear to be a killer, and in the end he died under Yasuo's sword.
The strength of his fingers made the plum wine in the bowl tremble, and Yasuo remembered what Yong En had said to him every time he remembered the sceneβleave the honor behind, and there was nothing left to survive.
Karn nodded, Yasuo could stretch and not bend, he would definitely not go back with Yon, this battle was inevitable.
"I killed Wynn with my own hands, and as he was dying, I said that I did not kill the elder and begged for his forgiveness. But before he died, Yon only told me that it was the Wind Resisting Sword Technique that killed Elder Soma, and that I was the only one who could possibly master it. β
Yon didn't say a word of forgiveness until he died, much to Yasuo's guilt.
He came to Weili to pay homage to the spirit, and the only people he wanted to see were none other than his master and brother.
"If the blooming spirit flower doesn't bloom, you won't be able to see anyone." Kai'Sa sat on her knees and rested her hands flat on her thighs.
"When the earth heals, it will bloom. I'll wait until that day. He fed the blade of the sword, and a ring of visible wind rubbed against the blade, washing away the blood from the blade as the wine dripped down.
Even if the truth is proven in the future, he will see the two of them for the last time.
The change of opinion of others is not in the least important to him to be forgiven by these two people.
"What if Yon hadn't died?"
"It's not funny at all...... Yasuo looked at Karn with a serious expression, not seeing any sign of drunkenness. He said, "I stabbed him with my own hands. β
"Is it true that someone who dies once is dead? If the spirit returns to the body, will it be able to be reborn? β
In Ionia, death carries people from the physical realm to the spiritual realm, but the veil between the two realms is so thin here that it seems impossible to go and return.
"It's impossible to come back from the dead...... Yasuo clenched his fists, "Don't joke about that. β
Karn continued to pour the wine, and said unhurriedly, "He died at your hands, but he lived because of the demons in his heart. β
"Heart Demon?!" Yasuo's eyes widened suddenly, but there was some confusion in his pupils.
The inner demons in the Ionian population often refer to the bottlenecks encountered in cultivation, and they have been unable to break through the demonic obstacles that have arisen for a long time.
This kind of spiritual thing obviously does not have the ability to resurrect people, at least Yasuo has never said such a bizarre thing.
But the demons in Karn's mouth refer to the prototype or juvenile form of the demon.
They are called Azarcana, predatory spirits that linger across the Veil. Suck on the host's negative emotions until it devours the host and grows into a true demon.
Prior to the war, Ionia showed no signs of Azacana's activity. They had come with the invasion of Noxus from Valoran.
The blood and fire brought about by the war aroused a series of negative emotions such as hatred, grief, and guilt, which naturally attracted this demon that feeds on negative emotions.
It's not the same thing, so it's normal for Yasuo to have a misunderstanding and not believe it.
After Karn explained, Yasuo's disbelief in Yon's resurrection finally turned from disbelief to suspicion.
If it is an external force, then he is not sure whether it can be resurrected.
"Brother, where is he now? I want to see him. Yasuo said.
"Yon may have risen from the dead, but he is no stranger to you. The resurrection came at a price, and the hunt for Yazakana became his most important goal. β
Although Yon was reborn, the demons of the heart followed him back to the physical realm and lived forever in his body. Yon needs to find the true name of this Yazarcana in order to remove him from his body.
"Then I want to see him more, and I will go with the truth." Yasuo said he couldn't wait to prove his innocence to Yon.
"Do you know what causes his demons?"
Memories flashed before Yasuo's eyes, and the moment the Wind Blade and the twin blades intertwined and the victory was divided, Yon's guilty gaze resurfaced in his mind.
Yasuo knew that Yon's greatest guilt was that he had failed to do his duty as an older brother to teach his younger brother.
"The truth doesn't matter to him anymore, what matters is whether you can inherit his will and pick up the honor of being a swordsman."
What is honor, Yasuo already knows at this time. He nodded, retracting his sword into its scabbard.
"If you still want to find him, you can go to the Apocalypse of the Eternal Palace, if you can move her, it shouldn't be difficult to help you find someone. But it's best to wait until you find out what happened back then, or the monks won't necessarily let you in. Karn turned, "Or, wait until Wynn is drawn to your demons and see each other." β
"I have demons too?" Yasuo was surprised.
"You should know what to expect." Karn took one last sip, then rose.
"I've said everything that needs to be said, and I just don't want you to bring the dispute here and disturb Zhanchun. This festival needs tranquility. β
Or maybe the guilt of intercepting someone else's beloved disciple halfway, Karn thought to himself.
"Who made me an unwelcome lizard." Yasuo smiled self-deprecatingly and drank a large bowl of wine, his laughter full of bitterness.
There was still half a jar of wine left, but Karn was ready to leave with Kaisha. But when he walked to the door, he suddenly remembered something.
"By the way, if you find the murderer, remember to take the murder weapon that killed Elder Soma with you."
"Why is that?" Yasuo was puzzled.
"The murder weapon that can kill Elder Soma must be a dangerous thing, and if it continues to stay there, it will still lead to disaster and harm the innocent. You're alone, and it's better for you to take care of it. β
Is this also a responsibility that I need to carry? Yasuo pondered, and when he came back to his senses, Karn had disappeared into the dilapidated ancestral hall with Kaisha, without even saying goodbye.
Looking at the remaining half jar of wine, he thought for a moment and sealed the lid.
Drinking and making mistakes, he has too many thoughts to sort out now, so it's better not to drink.
