Goodbye, China

"It is said that at that time, an exceptionally fierce battle broke out in Japan. A large number of Onmyoji, as well as the Onmyoji they commanded, perished in the Shikigami."

The resentment left behind by their deaths, along with the vengeful spirits of the many ordinary people who had died before, all converged in Lord Wu Shijie's severed left arm, merging with the remaining blood there, and eventually forming several Gemstone containing a large amount of spiritual power and resentment.

Onmyoji call it the "Killing Stone".

The existence of the Killing Stone not only induces the birth of a large number of evil spirits, but also has the ability to attract evil spirits to gather and strengthen their power.

The Onmyoji tried many methods, but none could destroy the Killing Stone. In the end, they had no choice but to seal it completely.

One of them, at the request of the Onmyoji, was sealed within the territory of China.

Considering that the Killing Stone was formed from the blood of Lord Wu Shijie, the higher-ups of the alliance finally agreed to the Onmyoji's request.

Not long ago, there were rumors that someone had unsealed a Sesshōseki (Killing Stone) that was sealed overseas and brought it back to Japan.

Therefore, Japan is currently in a very dangerous situation. Whatever you plan to do in Japan, I suggest you cancel it.

After listening to Zhao Youde's explanation, Bell not only did not give up his idea of going to Japan, but became even more eager to Japan.

Bell was very interested in both the Killing Stone mentioned by Zhao Youde and the Japan Onmyoji and evil spirits.

As for danger?

Bell felt he was still capable of protecting himself.

Are you kidding me? He even dared to confront Dumbledore, would he be afraid of a mere broken stone? No matter how strong the Killing Stone is, can it be stronger than the Philosopher's Stone?

Well, Bell didn't know either the Killing Stone or the Philosopher's Stone was stronger. After all, according to Zhao Youde, the formation of the Killing Stone was indeed somewhat mysterious, and who knew if it might possess some strange abilities.

However, no matter how strong a stone is, it is still just a stone. The key is the person who uses the stone.

If the opponent is indeed too strong, and he and his parents together can't handle it, he still has an ultimate killing move - "Throw You, Shanna!"

Don't get me wrong, this isn't Bell planning to sell his sister for personal gain; he'd never do that.

As long as Shanna throws all the magical items in her little handbag around without a care in the world, Bell thinks that even something as trivial as razing Tokyo to the ground, let alone sinking the entire Japan, would be no problem.

Faced with Zhao Youde's admonishing gaze, Bell simply smiled and said nothing.

Seeing that Bell was completely unaware of the danger, Zhao Youde decided to put in more effort to persuade him, for the sake of his Personal Terminal.

Before Zhao Youde could even speak, Bell's next words made him completely forget about the matter.

"Brother Youde, there's one last thing I'd like to ask you for help with. I hope you can pass on a message to your superior that the British Wizarding World is looking to establish an exchange program with the China Cultivator World."

"What? An exchange program?"

Zhao Youde said he seemed to have heard the word somewhere before, but couldn't remember where.

"That's right, it's an exchange program. I'm very fascinated by the cultivation knowledge of China Cultivator. This time I can only stay for a short half month, and I haven't been able to visit China Academy before, which I find very regrettable."

Yandu Academy, one of the four great Academy of China, is located on the outskirts of Beijing. Bell had originally wanted to visit it, but according to Zhao Youde, outsiders were not allowed to enter the Academy during the holidays. Therefore, Bell had to reluctantly give up.

This also led Bell to consider studying in China.

After discussing it with his parents last night, the whole family agreed that it had potential! That's why Bell asked Zhao Youde to pass on a message today.

After hearing Bell's next sentence, Zhao Youde finally remembered what "exchange study abroad" meant. Wasn't this what those Spirit-Rootless Person often called "studying abroad"?

"But this is such a big matter, I can't make the decision myself!"

Zhao Youde said with difficulty.

Bell rolled his eyes inwardly.

He knew, of course, that Zhao Youde couldn't make the decision. Not to mention Zhao Youde, even his entire family couldn't make the decision in this matter.

However, the exchange program between the Britain and China is a mutually beneficial arrangement.

With his father handling things at the British Ministry of Magic, the exchange program is almost certain to be approved. His father already made that promise last night.

Meanwhile, in China, Bell learned from his conversations with Zhao Youde that most Cultivator were very interested in foreign countries, especially Europe, the birthplace of the Wand.

Furthermore, the China Cultivator Alliance had just reached a business cooperation agreement with the Bell Family, and the two sides could barely be considered to be in a "honeymoon period." Therefore, Bell speculated that there shouldn't be any major problems.

"It's okay, you don't need to make the decision."

Bell explained.

"Brother Youde, you just need to convey this to your Director Wang. After that, personnel from the British Ministry of Magic will come to discuss the specific details of the exchange program."

"Oh, that's good. Leave it to me."

Hearing that he didn't have to make the decision, Zhao Youde finally breathed a sigh of relief. He knew his own limitations and was fairly aware of his own capabilities.

Zhao Youde quickly took out a notebook and wrote this down.

He suddenly realized that this was the first close exchange between the Cultivator and the foreigners! If it succeeded, he, as someone who played a huge role in it, might go down in history!

You know, back when I was in school, I was incredibly envious of those who were able to leave their mark on history and have their names recorded in history books by later generations.

After finishing their business, the Bell family chatted casually with Zhao Youde. At noon, they treated him to a nice meal before seeing him off to report for duty.

In the afternoon, William and Elena bid farewell to the several bigwigs of the Cultivator Alliance they had met over the past few days, and the Bell family finished their preparations for leaving.

night.

This will be Bell's last night in China.

Just like the day he arrived, Bell stood by the bedroom window again, quietly gazing at the city in the darkness.

The city before me was still pitch black, devoid of bright lights and bustling with people and vehicles.

I let out another long sigh of relief. Who knows when I'll be able to return to China after this departure?

Maybe next year, but more likely it will be several years from now.

Bell suddenly felt incredibly stupid. Even with memories of his past life, it didn't change the fact that he was now a foreigner.

Even if he wanted to bring his family to join the Cultivator Alliance, they probably wouldn't welcome them.

So instead of worrying about all these unnecessary things, it's better to spend more time with your family...
