Chapter 75 Return
When Xia Mu first came to this world, the first place he appeared was in the Hueco Mundo.

He was no stranger to Hueco Mundo.

After that, he returned to Soul Society from Hueco Mundo, passing through the Black Chamber and crossing the Dangai on the way, so this journey was not unfamiliar to him.

Following Unohana Retsu, they traveled through the broken world together. Under their control, the spiritual power condensed into a road under their feet, supporting them to move forward safely.

Unohana Retsu's expression was still indifferent. She couldn't help but ask Xia Mu a question, "Xia Mu, why don't you want Vice Captain Aizen of the Fifth Division to go with us?"

On the surface, the reason Xia Mu gave was for convenience.

But Unohana Retsu is very familiar with Natsuki and has taught Natsuki the art of Kaido and Zanjutsu, so he knows Natsuki's character very well.

There is another reason behind Xia Mu's words.

Although he didn't know the reason, out of trust in Natsuki, after feeling Natsuki's gaze, Unohana Retsu chose to speak for Natsuki.

"I haven't had much contact with Vice Captain Aizen, but I always feel that he is not as simple as he seems."

Xia Mu gave his own reasons.

"Is that so?"

Unohana Rei's eyes flickered, and he was also lost in deep thought.

She recalled the Aizen in her memory as a gentle, humble and polite young man. She really didn't understand why Natsuki said that.

Maybe it was because Xia Mu noticed something that she didn't notice.

Unohana Retsu felt a little curious, but did not ask any further questions.

Then they talked about other topics.

Natsuki and Unohana Retsu are already very familiar with each other. Although they are called master and disciple, it doesn't seem like that. Even though Unohana Retsu has taught Natsuki a lot, Natsuki's attitude towards her is not like that of a teacher.

If we really want to talk about the relationship between them, it is more like siblings.

This is of course also related to the fact that Xia Mu accidentally called Unohana Rei "Sister Rei" once.

Although she is a not young god of death, Unohana Retsu does not think she is old. If Natsuki treats her like an old man, she will not be happy.

But Xia Mu didn't.

Although the name "Sister Lie" was an accident, it originated from the name given by some viewers in the "bullet screen" of the anime that Xia Mu watched in her previous life. When it fell into Unohana Lie's ears, she felt that this name seemed quite good.

Of course, in the anime, she is called "Sister Hua", but Unohana is the surname and Lie is the name, so when she really comes to this world, she should be called "Sister Lie".

So, from then on, this unexpected name became the way Natsuki privately called Unohana Retsu.

Of course, Unohana Retsu did not call Natsuki "Natsuki brother" or anything, but called Natsuki by his name.

It may seem a bit rude, but it actually highlights their close relationship.

Along the way, the two people chatted casually.

Until the light came into their eyes.

They just realized that they were already in Hueco Mundo.

“What a nostalgic place!”

Natsuki looked up and first glanced at the moon hanging in the sky. Because of the differences in the worlds, the moon in Hueco Mundo and the moon in Soul Society are opposite. Under the moon, the world is shrouded in moonlight, and the light is not bright.

Yellow sand is spread all over the world. Everywhere you look, it's a desolate scene. Occasionally, you can see a few trees in the desert. The trees are also stone-like things, but they look like trees, without leaves or life.

When Natsuki lamented the environment of Hueco Mundo, Unohana Retsu also showed a look of nostalgia.

"After all these years, Hueco Mundo hasn't changed at all!"

Xia Mu turned his head to look at Unohana Retsu, "Sister Retsu, have you ever been to Hueco Mundo?"

Unohana Retsu nodded and said, "I did fight in Hueco Mundo for a while." In the past, she loved fighting and was eager to find strong opponents to fight.

In addition to the strong ones in Soul Society, she certainly did not let go of Hueco Mundo.

After all, the threat posed by Hollow to the God of Death is too great.

Ordinary Grim Reapers simply cannot deal with those great Hollows.

She also wanted to know whether there was a strong person in the void who could let her fight happily.

After that great war, due to the heavy casualties suffered by the Gotei 13, the Hollows became the main threat to the world for a time.

In order to protect Soul Society.

Their original captains once entered Hueco Mundo and carried out a cleanup of it.

Unohana Retsu has fought in Hueco Mundo for many years and is no stranger to this place.

Because Natsuki knew Unohana Retsu's true identity, he was not surprised by anything he went through.

The two of them took a quick look at the surrounding environment.

Then, the main work began.

"Let's find the expeditionary force first."

"Although according to the letter they sent back, they suffered heavy casualties due to the incident in Hueco Mundo, there should still be survivors."

Unohana Retsu said to Natsuki in a deep voice.

She knew Xia Mu's past, so she understood that Xia Mu was very worried about the expeditionary force.

Natsuki nodded.

Immediately, in front of Unohana Retsu, he recited the chant of the ghost way.

"The heart of the south, the pupils of the north, the fingertips of the west, the toes of the east, gather with the wind, and disperse with the rain!"

As he spoke, Xia Mu drew a circle with his finger on the desert in front of him and wrote some strange words on it.

Some special ghost techniques require not only chanting, but also the writing of spells to perform.

Just like what Xia Mu is performing at this moment, "The Fifty-Eighth Binding Technique - Slapping the Toes and Chasing the Bird!"

This is a binding technique specifically designed to sense and capture their spiritual pressure. After it is performed, the caster's spiritual power will spread in all directions to capture the spiritual veins in the air, which is equivalent to amplifying the spiritual perception of the god of death several times or dozens of times.

This time, the place where Xia Mu and Unohana Retsu landed was not far from where the expeditionary forces gathered.

Perhaps due to the changes in Hueco Mundo, the expeditionary force may have moved its position.

But as long as the time is not too long, there will always be some residual traces left.

Xia Mu's spiritual perception is very sensitive, thanks to his strong ability to control spiritual power.

As he performed the Binding Technique, in an instant, all the spirit particles within dozens of miles were sensed by him. He also keenly sensed the spiritual veins that belonged only to the god of death.

The spiritual veins of humans are white, while Xu's spiritual veins are black, the opposite of humans.

The soul vein of the god of death is red.

Soon, traces of red spiritual veins appeared in Xia Mu's perception.

"over there!"

He untied the restraints, stood up, and spoke to Unohana Retsu.

Unohana Retsu nodded, and then the two of them used instant movement to rush in the direction pointed by Natsuki. Thanks to the rich spirit particle environment in Hueco Mundo, the speed of using instant movement here was faster than in Soul Society.
