Slowly, even if unwilling, Higurashi Gushan could only bow his head, because the power that originally belonged to him was no longer under his control.
"This is indeed a genius idea, sealing the power within the weapon." Nekomata sneered.
"Have you forgotten the contract you made with me back then?"
"Accepting my power is equivalent to accepting all the destiny I have arranged for you."
"Your soul is the weight placed on the scale."
"And they all belong to me!"
Higurashi Gushan let out a cry of pain, a pain not from the body, but from the complete enslavement of the soul.
The spiritual light in his eyes was gradually erased, the blood-red power shattered the surrounding ice, and his emaciated body was buried within the ice cave.
Not long after, a violent explosion was heard, the collapsed ice layers were breached, and a figure leapt into the air.
A pale face, a vacant expression, and eyes devoid of any emotional fluctuations.
