Chapter 96 - Chapter 18: Thank You For the Treat

"Is it starting? Is it starting?!"

Suddenly, an anxious voice echoed in the empty hall.

Looking towards the source of the voice, one could see Nimaiya Ōetsu, with his partially long, black, punk-style curly hair. His hands were full of fruits and snacks, and he was running over in a great hurry.

Responding to him was his fellow Zero Squad member, Tenjirō Kirinji. He didn't turn his head, his eyes fixed on the front. In front of him, there was a large screen of mist, but what was important was that an image was being projected onto this mist.

Tenjirō, staring at the front, knew from the ear-splitting sound of Ōetsu's voice that he had arrived as promised. A sinister curve appeared on his lips, and he answered in a breathy voice, "Not yet. You're just in time."

"...Phew, that's good."

Ōetsu let out a long sigh of relief. He placed the fruits and snacks he had brought on the table next to Tenjirō, then sat down on the other side of the table without a care in the world. He then also looked up at the image projected in the mist.

If Ling Qing were here, he would have recognized at a glance that this was the very table that Kazuo and Kazuhiro used to put things on when they were watching them practice Shunpo.

But unfortunately, Ling Qing was not here. He was in the flickering image projected by the mist. Or more accurately, he was on his way to another Zeroban Riden.

"Haha!!"

Ōetsu, who had been listless for many days, was finally revitalized. He let out a wild laugh, staring fiercely at Ling Qing in the image.

He had put in so much effort, only to be so thoroughly defeated by Ling Qing! Now, finally, his chance to see Ling Qing make a fool of himself had come!

Tenjirō glanced at Ōetsu. Although he was also waiting for the show, and it could be said that the reason this show could even happen was inseparable from him, Ōetsu's excitement was far greater than his. This made Tenjirō a little curious about what Ling Qing had done to him to make him rush over from the Hōōden with a trail of sparks and lightning the moment he heard about watching a 'good show'. Not only that, he had also brought a large pile of food, clearly settling in for a front-row seat.

But as he thought this, Tenjirō's hands were not idle. He casually picked up the things Ōetsu had brought and enthusiastically looked back at the front.

At this moment, Ling Qing in the image used his power to briefly fly in the air as he approached the Zeroban Riden, landing on the ground with a mixture of power and elegance.

Anyone who saw this scene could only praise it as cool. But unfortunately, the smiles on the faces of the two shameless men peeping from the side only grew wider. They both thought to themselves at the same time: Hmph, you look so cool now, but you'll be in for a rough time later!

"..."

Ling Qing looked up and around in confusion. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he always felt like someone was watching him. But after looking carefully for a while and detecting no abnormality with his Reiatsu, Ling Qing could only dismiss it as his own illusion. He then turned his attention to the legendary Zeroban Riden of Shutara Senjumaru.

Unlike Ōetsu's overly enthusiastic welcome ceremony, Shutara Senjumaru's place was the other extreme. Ōetsu was overly enthusiastic; this place was overly cold.

As far as the eye could see, there wasn't a single person, and even the 'airport' where he landed seemed too ordinary.

However, Shutara Senjumaru's manner actually made Ling Qing feel a little relieved. Cold is good. It's better for the people of the Zero Squad to be cold.

Thinking that Shutara Senjumaru had been active in the Seireitei recently, Ling Qing felt that even if her personality was a bit strange, it couldn't be that strange.

Fortunately, although no one came to receive him, the layout of the place made it easy to figure out which direction to go.

As Ling Qing gradually moved forward, he also noticed the characteristic of this Zero Squad member's Zeroban Riden. Just as it was closely related to her achievement of creating the Shihakushō, he could see silks of various colors and patterns everywhere. Large quantities of fabrics of different colors and materials were casually thrown around. But what was confusing was that although he could see fabrics everywhere, he saw very few... no, he saw no needles at all.

Walking all the way, Ling Qing arrived at what should be the main hall. Looking up, he saw a woman sitting on a huge throne-like seat made of a large pile of colorful silks.

She had a beautiful face, pale skin, and black, medium-length hair with side-swept bangs, adorned with intricate golden hair ornaments. She gave off an impression of nothing but elegance. Her temperament was not just completely different from that of her fellow Zero Squad members, Tenjirō Kirinji and Nimaiya Ōetsu; it was completely out of place.

She wore a white mantle with clasps over her shoulders.

As Ling Qing looked at her, she also looked at him. Perhaps she had known of his arrival since he had set foot on the Zeroban Riden.

"You're the one Tenjirō said wanted to have a new Shihakushō made, right?" Shutara Senjumaru said, looking at Ling Qing with a faint smile.

Ling Qing let out a slight sigh of relief and nodded with some reassurance. "That's me."

At the same time, he thought that at least there was a normal member in the Zero Squad.

And then, he saw the smile on Shutara Senjumaru's face seem to become a little strange. She said to Ling Qing with an unusually satisfied smile, "In that case, you should also know my rules. I haven't seen someone so at ease with themself in a long time. I am very pleased."

"Wait—"

Ling Qing's expression changed instantly. A bad premonition welled up in his heart. "Rules? What rules?"

But before Ling Qing's words could land, two strips of silk suddenly shot out from the layers of silk on both sides of him. These two strips of silk were like lightning and like vipers, instantly wrapping around Ling Qing's wrists and pulling his arms apart and up.

In an instant, Ling Qing's entire body was restrained!

Although with Ling Qing's strength, he could have torn these two strips of silk in a moment, but before that…

A massive Reiatsu suddenly bombarded Ling Qing. This Reiatsu did not harm him, but it destroyed all the clothes on his body in an instant!

The clothes Ling Qing was wearing were torn into countless pieces and blown away by the oncoming Reiatsu. Ling Qing stood there, completely naked, in front of Shutara Senjumaru. The surging Reiatsu even sent his long silver-white hair flying high!

Ling Qing's eyes widened slightly, and he couldn't help but grit his teeth. His body trembled slightly. He was not ashamed because of the sudden treatment, because of his sudden nakedness. If someone was embarrassed by such a thing, it could only mean one thing: their figure was not ideal. Even being polite, with Ling Qing's current physique, this was a great service to the eyes!

What made Ling Qing grit his teeth and tremble was that those two scoundrels knew Shutara Senjumaru's rules, but had tacitly not mentioned a single word to him! He recalled the creepy smile on Tenjirō Kirinji's face when they were bathing and profoundly understood his sinister intentions.

Shutara Senjumaru narrowed her eyes slightly. She sized up Ling Qing's body, and a slight smile appeared on her lips. But that smile was soon covered by a skeleton-like puppet hand that extended from behind her.

Even so, one could still perceive her smile from the slight upward curve of her eyes.

"Thank you for the treat," she said.

At the same time, on the other side—in the main hall of the Kirinden.

"Ooooooooooooh!!!"

Nimaiya Ōetsu clenched his fists and let out an excited "ooh ooh" sound. An unknowing person hearing his voice might have thought some kind of humanoid ape was in heat here.

"This is it, this is it, hahahahahaha!!!"

Tenjirō Kirinji laughed wildly, slapping the table in front of him. It's unknown if it was an illusion, but the table seemed to make a disturbing cracking sound.

—Ling Qing meets Shutara Senjumaru.
