Gu Mo's mind was sowhat chaotic, perhaps because he had just enhanced his Spirit yesterday, increasing that attribute by two points; although a rather lengthy "record" suddenly appeared in his mind, his brain still quickly received and processed this information.
It might also be because he already had so grasp and understanding of the ssage Saito Dosan wanted to convey. Though the old man was reminiscing about his past glory, the information delivered through the Guardian Spirit was nothing more than his past—
As the leader of the Demon Hunter land called Chu Yeshi, he was trapped in confusion amidst the year-after-year hunting of Demon Ghosts, feeling that this repetitive chanical labor was aningless; after all, it seed like the Demon Ghosts could never be completely eradicated. The root cause of the significant breeding of Wild Souls lay within humanity itself, in this chaotic world where neither humans nor ghosts could find peace...
Amidst the confusion, he t a female demon nad Miyoshino; the two ca together because of shared ideals, resolving to end this world that was wrong from the beginning. They hoped humans would no longer suffer due to war and that ghosts could rest forever...
Afterwards, when Miyoshino gave birth to twins, she left due to certain concerns, taking one daughter with her. At the sa ti, he also changed his life's plan, shifting from being a Demon Hunter to becoming a Warring States daimyo. His cross-career move wasn't to participate in power struggles but to wield more Power to eliminate Spirit Stones and create an era of peace...
—Indeed, using the Guardian Spirit to convey information is very effective. Normal human communication is limited by the expressive capabilities and reception abilities of both parties; however, conveying thoughts through "Divine Sense" in this way offers unimaginable speed and efficiency.
Gu Mo felt as though he had watched a several-hour-long movie in an instant. Although the shooting and editing of this movie were rather clumsy and full of emotions with no technique, it was sufficient to express everything Saito Dosan wanted to convey.
He deeply understood the man's past, his forr confusion, his subsequent awakening, and his determination and commitnt to action…
Because the information delivered by the Guardian Spirit included the most genuine feelings and thoughts the person held regarding each mory.
Not only could he see images and hear sounds, but he could also tangibly feel the person's "emotions," enabling him to understand the "movie's" intended content without any barriers and virtually without error.
After a brief feeling of dizziness, Gu Mo's thoughts returned to reality but he still remained sowhat dazed and lost.
Because this developnt was sothing he hadn't anticipated; he had heard Saito Dosan ntion many tis about helping with all his might, but he never thought it would be such a grand gesture. After all, by conventional standards, handing him a city to manage was already extrely generous and carefree.
For any other daimyo, how could they possibly afford to treat a stranger this way? Leaving aside the fact that there was a daughter involved, even if the person was their own brother, they would likely remain cautious.
It can only be said that Saito Dosan was indeed extraordinary; just as Oda Nobunaga, forrly an adversary, recognized him, he could even hand over Mino. Because he never clung to power or status, he had no strong attachnt to Mino, which he had painstakingly built up; it was never his true pursuit, but rely a ans to achieve his true goals…
—Regarding the distinction between purpose and ans, this carefree and bold hero was very clear, never confusing the process as the result, nor getting lost in pursuit of his ideals due to the allure of power.
Thus, Gu Mo now felt he had underestimated this Viper, as the decision the other party made shook him to such an extent that he couldn't recover for a long ti. Finally, after figuring out the whole thing, he felt completely out of sorts and almost jumped up.
His head rapidly shook, resembling a rattle, and his first reaction was to refuse—
"No way, no way, I can't do this..."
"..."
"..."
"Huh? What did you say—!!"
Saito Dosan's voice suddenly increased by several decibels, full of vitality, showing no signs of old age, and now it sounded as loud as a thunderous roar. He furrowed his eyebrows and his eyes were filled with anger. What did this kid just say?
He hadn't even made any other requests, just to treat Ah Xiu well, yet he answered, "No way"? "Can't do it"?
It was only natural that his anger value instantly increased by 1000!
Saito Dosan's eyes almost shot out flas, seeming like his gaze was about to scorch this disagreeable fellow beyond recognition!
"Uh, no, that's not what I ant..."
Gu Mo also couldn't help but lean his body back, instinctively trying to distance himself from the other party's overwhelming aura that seed ready to consu everything... Couldn't they just discuss things nicely, sit down and have a proper chat? Why yell so loudly?
"Then what do you an?!" Saito Dosan's eyes remained wide open, and his fists were tightly clenched.
"..."
"..."
Gu Mo tugged at the corners of his mouth, instinctively turning his head in the direction of Hidechika and her sister duo, feeling he couldn't handle it anymore and urgently needed so outside support!
