Theoretically, Yasuo's current choice should be to call Toothless back to the Kinkou and send Akali back - thirteen-year-old Akali is still a child, and children can act recklessly, but adults cannot.

However, Yasuo... has never been a reliable adult.

Facing Akali with an expectant look on her face, Yasuo asked a question that left her confused.

"Usually, do I teach you more by hard words, or do I teach you more by caution?"

Akali had a question mark on her face.

Although she didn't know why Yasuo asked, she still told the truth obediently: "Master Shen."

"Okay." Yasuo nodded, "Then you should follow me this time - I will take you to meet the other queens."

Back wave?

What is that?

In this way, the journey continued with Akali at a loss. After Yasuo finished speaking, he ignored her and instead grabbed Toothless by the back of the neck, threatening the innocent Windwalker.

Under this situation, Akali could only sit there awkwardly, quietly cheering for Toothless in her heart.

"I'll prepare more Ochatenpo for you next time!"

……………………

After leaving the Kinkou Sect, Toothless landed in Weili in the evening of that day.

After sending Yasuo and Akali back to the ground, Toothless flew off to find food, while Yasuo looked at Akali, who had a nervous face, and waved his hand.

"What do you want to eat?" Yasuo pointed to a series of signboards in the distance, "You have the final say!"

Akali was surprised at how easy Yasuo was to talk.

Although she had the intention to decline and be polite, Akali was really tired and hungry after a day of cold wind blowing in the sky, so she simply chose a shop selling noodle soup and sat in with Yasuo.

The two people, who had been running around for a long time, sat down opposite each other and ate seven bowls of beef noodle soup together.

"Comfortable, comfortable." Akali still maintained her image, but Yasuo had already collapsed on the chair, "It's better to come out and enjoy it——"

"Mr. Yasuo also prefers to be outside?" Akali was a little surprised, "Don't you like to be in the sect?"

"It's not the same after all." Yasuo shrugged and started to prepare the money for the check. "In the sect, you have to eat on time, have a regular schedule, and there are a lot of things to do - you don't have to go out when you are away, so you have more freedom."

"More freedom?" Akali did not expect Yasuo to say such a thing, "Where should we go next?"

"Find an inn." After Yasuo paid the bill, he stood up and said, "Have a good rest today - I have to fly for another day tomorrow!"

Half an hour later, lying in a single room of a small inn, staring at the low and old ceiling, Akali felt an exaggerated unreality.

I really left the Kinkou Sect quietly and embarked on a wonderful adventure with Mr. Yasuo!

I really left the sect quietly and will fight side by side with Mr. Yasuo to fight against the darkness of Philo!

The more she thought about it, the more excited she became. Akali began to toss and turn on the couch until late at night, when she couldn't bear the exhaustion and fell into a deep sleep.

And just as she fell asleep quietly, next door to her, Yasuo put on the mask of the Scarlet Moon.

In a world full of bright red, a hint of darkness is so dazzling.

Yasuo sighed, finally turned over and pulled out the sword from his waist.

……………………

The next morning, when Akali and Yasuo had breakfast together, everyone around them was talking about the "killed evil spirit".

"I heard that the evil spirit in the house on the old street was killed yesterday?"

"It seems so - I heard people say it happened early in the morning."

"I don't know who did it..."

"It may not have been done by humans."

"What are you talking about? Demons kill demons?"

"No, I'm talking about the land of birth - before the Noxians came, there were never all these messy things in Wei. Now that they are gone, those things have disappeared."

"This is possible...but why did I hear that there were screams of evil spirits at that time?"

"Maybe someone is bragging - anyway, everyone was asleep at that time, and the shops in the old street were closed, so whatever they say is fine..."

While gnawing on the buns, Akali curiously asked about the legend about the "evil ghost". The locals actually didn't understand it at all. After asking for a long time, she only knew that "the Noxians are coming."

After that, the old street was not very peaceful."

"This is what happens after the balance is destroyed, right?" Returning to her seat, Akali picked up a bun again, "And after the external influence disappears, the balance is slowly restored?"

"The first sentence is correct." Yasuo picked up the porridge and took a sip, "But the second sentence is incorrect - if the distortion between the spiritual world and the real world is not cleaned up, it will soon cause erosion."

"How do you know...oh, wait." Akali's eyes widened, "Did you do that?"

Yasuo put the mask on Akali's face.

"Can you see it?" Yasuo pointed to his long sword, "It's pitch black here."

Under the mask, Akali blinked - she saw nothing.

"Okay, I can't see it."

Seeing that Akali didn't speak, Yasuo grinned helplessly - it seemed that the effect of this mask on seeing shadows was only effective on him.

Just when Yasuo silently put away his mask and was about to drink up all the porridge in the bowl, a voice suddenly appeared behind him.

"This broom-head gentleman - can you see shadows too?"

Yasuo turned around and saw a slovenly guy holding a scythe. He was shirtless and had a rebellious look on his face. On his chest, a large black tattoo was particularly dazzling.

After silently swallowing the last bit of porridge, Yasuo shook his head silently.

"This broomstick..."

The next moment, before the guy could say this name for the second time, a strong gust of wind blew up.

The figures of the three people disappeared in the wind in an instant, leaving only the shopkeeper with a stunned look on his face looking at the money on the table, rubbing his eyes in disbelief.

On a big tree a hundred meters away from the breakfast shop, Yasuo was grabbing this dumb guy and forcing him into the tree hole.

"Aren't you a Noxian?" Yasuo neatly shoved the rude bastard into a tree hole. "Why don't you learn from the ancestors and say hello?"

Akali on the side was dumbfounded. Just when she looked confused, Yasuo waved to her.

"Come and take a look - this is what I call balance, oh no, the shadows flow and the waves follow."

That's right, the unlucky guy who called Yasuo "Mr. Broomhead" and was thrown into a big tree was none other than Kayn, the disciple of Zed and the Ionian Houlang, and the future Scythe of Shadow Stream.
