Chapter 235: Shocking Dream in the Amusement Garden (4)

"So, so powerful—just feeling your presence is delicious enough to make me shiver!"

"Let me taste what it's like to be someone who can drive away Huanlong!"

A cluster of teal-dark flame suddenly rose behind Xing, and as Xing turned her head unawares, a whoosh sound shot it into her body. The next second, Xing snapped her eyes open, staring blankly at her own hands… At that moment, her whole body emitted the same teal flame as Suiyang's.

"Not bad, not bad—so I can temporarily attach myself to your body, then?"

That sharp voice finally materialized into a body, turning into a flame ball with big eyes, looking considerably uglier than Weiba Daye.

In response, Xing was surprisingly relaxed: "Fine, stay there then, just don't cause trouble."

The eyeballs widened even more: "... Wow, your mood is so relaxed, as if this body isn't yours? Sister, what makes you so carefree?"

"Also, what's inside your body? A sun? It's so hot!"

Suiyang, calling herself 【Fuyan】, shouted that she couldn't stay inside her for long and just wanted to leave this damned place. She wants to cooperate with Xing: she'll help Xing get out of this illusion maze, while Xing will help her escape the Ten King Office's pursuit.

Seeing no other way out, Xing reluctantly entered a strategic partnership with her, taking it one step at a time.

——

Jujutsu Kaisen.

"Fuyan doesn't look threatening at all," Nishikata Takuya flicked the ash in his hand, "As long as she doesn't possess, Suiyang's threat is limited; it feels less dangerous than a Grade‑1 cursed spirit here."

Shouko silently lit a cigarette and asked, "Nishikata, do you think Huanlong is a threat?"

"Huanlong... that threat is enormous. If such a monster appeared here, it could crush the Earth in an instant," Nishikata still shudders at that earth‑shattering battle, which was far beyond any human's capacity to join.

"Then perhaps consider why Fuyan could sense Huanlong's aura, and... when Huanlong first manifested from the fabricated 'Tingyun', what form did she briefly appear in?"

"..."

Nishikata, following Shouko's lead, closed his eyes to ponder, from Huanlong's never‑appearing description to the flesh forged by abundant combat power… As his thoughts deepened, a bean‑sized bead of sweat slid down his forehead, and the straight cigarette in his hand went out like a frost‑kissed eggplant.

"Huanlong... is also Suiyang?"

"Hmm," Shouko finally managed a smile, "You're not completely clueless, Nishikata."

"Moreover, I prefer to interpret the Creation Furnace as the 'Jiumen Frontier' from the Luo Fu Immortal Boat version—precisely because those ghost‑fire little flame balls are so dangerous that we had to subdue them with a Gong Zao Si treasure. Who knows if there's a hidden potential inside that could become the next Extinction Overlord?"

——

"With Fuyan's help, Xing will soon emerge from the illusion, but as she entered the next small room, Huohu's figure suddenly appeared before her eyes."

"Xing, it's you! Finally, I see a living person!" Huohu gasped heavily, overjoyed, "Wuwu, I thought I'd be trapped here forever... Seeing you is such a relief!"

Huohu hurriedly asked about Gui Naifen's whereabouts; Xing had intended to say, "She should be trapped in some corner," but the words that came out were completely different from what she thought.

"Stop looking. Gui Naifen has probably already been devoured by Suiyang by now."

That ultra‑cold tone made it impossible to hear that the two had just been comrades, as if Xing's blood were colder than Mirror Flow's ice.

Xing was horrified, but the next second a maddening giggle from Fuyan echoed beside her ear: "Oh dear, the vocal cords are the most easily manipulated muscles in a human body."

"Xing, you'll definitely find a way out, right? Please take me with you..." Huohu showed a pitiful expression.

"I, the Great One, can't stand your cowardly act; as a judge of the Ten King Office, why are you always looking to others for help?"

Huohu felt even more aggrieved: "You know I'm not cut out to be a judge. I used to think serving the Ten King Office long enough would build courage, but now I realize... it's just not possible."

Seeing Huohu cower, Weiba Daye was fuming, his molars grinding: "Tch, useless thing, why the hell am I sealed onto you?"

Huohu glared at Weiba with a mournful face, whispering, "All you do is flaunt your power, and the moment we slip, we both fall into someone else's trap... Who's the useless one?"

Controlled by Fuyan, Xing gave the bickering pair a cold glance, turned, and prepared to leave: "There's no point in you following me. I'm leaving, leaving you alone here. Goodbye!"

——

A Certain Scientific Railgun.

"What a joke... Fuyan never intended to cooperate properly from the start!"

Watching Fuyan's willful antics, Misaka Mikoto finally understood why the Immortal Boat suppressed these seemingly harmless little demons. This... is downright dangerous! Even someone like Xing can't resist; if released, the massive Immortal Boat would instantly descend into chaos.

"Using others' bodies, uttering insincere words to hurt them—this despicable behavior is truly..."

He couldn't resist looking at the screen, yet the more he watched, the angrier he got. In the end, his fury caused electric currents to gather beside Misaka's chest‑brown short hair, and a crackle sound instantly drew the eyes of many patrons in the café.

"Hey, you... calm down a bit," Kamijou Touma, sitting opposite, whispered.

"Don't get too angry; Weiba will definitely act," Kamijou pointed at the flame ball beside Huohu. "As a fellow, Weiba must have noticed something, right? Didn't he say he's the most dangerous Suiyang? Trust him."

"W‑what if Weiba isn't a match for that guy?" Misaka Mikoto took a deep breath, trying to steady herself, and after calming a bit, voiced her concern.

"Weiba is currently sealed; to unleash his full power, Huohu would have to break the seal, right? Since he and Huohu love bickering, what if he gets angry and runs off? Wouldn't that mean the Ten King Office personally let the most dangerous Suiyang loose?"
