Ashiya Michimitsu is indeed a villain.
Moreover, it is even worse than the villains in many creative works, and it is an out-and-out real evil that has no room for subversion!
But this is from a general perspective, a "human" perspective to be precise.
Ashiya Domitsu is very cruel to human beings, even his own children are no exception. He has almost no moral values of normal people, and can only be described by words such as "crazy" and "evil". But he is quite gentle and magnanimous towards non-human things, that is, spiritual creatures such as ghosts and ghosts.
Generally speaking, when humans and monsters conflict, psychics will side with humans. Ashiya Michimitsu, on the other hand, always acts on the side of the monster, and even has a definite record of killing a village for a monster, and more than once.
Such an onmyoji would undoubtedly be hostile to all decent psychics, but he was extremely powerful and had many monsters under his command, so ordinary psychics were no match at all.
Only Seimei Kamami can definitely stop him.
The final result of the struggle between the two powerful onmyojis was that Seimei abolished Daoman's cultivation and exiled him after imposing a powerful seal.
As for the final fate of this "worst" onmyoji, there are different opinions. Some say that he died a miserable death, some say that he became a demon, some said that he repented, and some said that evil methods continued his life... What are the facts? There is no clear record.
And it is clear that he has posterity.
If Ashiya Road is full of decent onmyoji, it is very likely that today's Seven Great Masters should be Eight Great Masters, but unfortunately he is not. And because of this ancestor's bad reputation, his descendants naturally bear a negative burden.
Seiji didn't know much, that is, he knew a little while chatting with Xia Ye, and he didn't understand what it meant to bear the surname "Ashiya".
He was curious about this, but it was obviously not appropriate to provoke the other party at this time, it was best to leave it at that.
In other words, as a descendant of the Springfield family, facing the descendants of the Ashiya family, it feels a little delicate to think that the ancestors of the two families are recognized as old enemies.
Xu Yan doesn't seem to care about this...or maybe he cares but doesn't show it.
Thinking about it one more level, Shen Gu asked him to find Xu Yan at that time, could it be because of this? Deliberately letting the descendants of two old enemies meet together is indeed a bad taste that kind of guy would have.
"Thank you for being willing to tell me." Qingsi paused, "I'll still call you Mr. Xuyan, is that okay?"
"Whatever." Ashiya Michii-Xu Yan said indifferently.
"Mr. Xuyan, I still want to ask, where is Shengu Shusheng? Didn't he come with you?"
"I don't want to be followed by that kind of thing."
To say that Kamiya is "that kind of thing"... Seiji's mouth curled up slightly.
It seems that Shengu is not welcome on Xuyan's side, and it is really hard for him to call the latter out to meet a stranger.
Kamiya: Just understand, please be gentle with me from now on~
Seiji: Shut up, get out.
"What do you want from me, Haruta Seiji?" Xu Yan asked.
"I want to advise you to stop attacking the Lingting Court, because this operation is doomed to fail, and it will lead to extremely bad results." Seiji said seriously.
"Why do you say that?"
"Because I saw the future."
The scene was quiet for a while.
"Is your prediction 100% certain?" Xu Yan asked.
"Yes." Seiji admitted without concealment.
This is also the limit of what he can explain.
Foretelling, in ancient times, was an important function of psychics. There are corresponding foreknowledge techniques for everything from national luck to daily life, which is generally called divination.
But as time passed, more and more examples proved that this type of technique was not very effective, and over-reliance would lead to negative results, so it declined.
Destiny is unpredictable, the future is unpredictable, and predictive spells are unreliable. This is the concept of ordinary psychics today.
Compared with ordinary people who are keen on fortune, divination, and horoscopes, people with psychic powers have lower trust in such things. Even if they are doing this kind of business, they probably don't believe it themselves. Customers clearly explain the probability of prediction, and those who claim to be able to predict 100% are either stupid or bad.
But Seiji agreed with that.
Xu Yan's eyes flickered, and he fell into silence.
Seiji quietly waited for the other party's reaction.
If Xu Yan turns his head and leaves or insists on explaining what kind of prediction he relies on, he has no choice but to read the file and start over.
It is the last resort to tell Xuyan the ciphertext obtained before, unless it is absolutely necessary, Seiji doesn't want to do this, because he doesn't know what the ciphertext means.
He would rather find Xu Yan through Shengu than directly call the latter and tell him the ciphertext... After all, he should not trust the cadres of the messenger organization.
"The action cannot be stopped." After the silence, Xu Yan said hoarsely.
"Why?"
"Because Lingting is making a big mistake, this mistake must be stopped."
"It refers to the plan of sacrificing thousands of people to lock the location of the Sakura Land. I also think this plan is wrong, but if you insist on taking action, it will only lead to greater sacrifices." Seiji said seriously.
"There is no foreknowledge technique that can truly predict the future." Xu Yan said, "Even if your foreknowledge is correct, the future has already changed when I learned that there might be such a future."
"If it's possible, I'd like to be so optimistic. But if things are really that simple, I wouldn't rather deal with Kamiya than talk to you." Seiji sighed.
Reminding Weimeng, telling Xuyan, and letting both parties be vigilant about the bad future, can the end of destruction be avoided
Optimistically, it is possible.
But after seeing such an ending, Seiji felt uneasiness in his heart that could not be wiped away.
"The future I see is very cruel. Tens of millions of lives will disappear with the rain of cherry blossoms... Can such a scene really be avoided if you act more cautiously?"
"I want to believe, but it's hard to believe."
"Mr. Xuyan, I beg you to think about it more seriously!"
"... If I stop acting, will I be able to avoid the future you see?" Xu Yan stared at Seiji, "Could it be the exact opposite?"
You said it yourself! Seiji wanted to say that.
However, when I think about it carefully, what Xuyan said at the time was "change my actions", not "stop my actions".
There seems to be a difference.
Thinking of this, Seiji frowned.
If Xuyan stops his actions, Lingting will execute the plan smoothly and will not lead to the end of destruction... He subconsciously thinks so.
But come to think of it, there are no exact guarantees for this route.
"You can't be sure about this, can you?" Seeing the other party's silence, Xu Yan continued, "The destruction you see is related to my actions, but you don't know how it is related, do you?"
Yes... because you didn't tell me back then! Seiji complained in his heart.
Do you want to read the file now and go back and talk to Xu Yan at that time again
Talking to the same character in different time and space, he can do this kind of operation.
However, Xu Yan didn't want to talk about the specific situation at that time, how to get him to say it was a problem, and he was attacked by the spirit body very quickly at that time, and there was no time to talk.
