Before Li Yang could even muster a reply, she attacked him. A sudden and huge blast of Ao from the left sent the man's back to hit against a wall.
The sword finally dropped out of his hands and into the bedroom's floor.
She would no longer mess around with him.
It didn't matter if he could form Ao around him to enhance his body and his sense, she'd hold him in place with simply the amount of her energy alone—not to mention it was of a different composition than his, something she had worked hard on to discover. It was foolish of him to think he had a chance.
Mitsuko eyed him. "Isn't that better? Stay still for a moment."
Setsuko's energy back then had been unleashed like a wave that sent itself across the entire world, but the Priestess had focused the Ao around them into holding him in place. It was concentrated and that kept him back, no matter how much he tugged energy within him to fight back.
Her mastery over Ao, qi, or whatever this energy was more complete than him—she overpowered and controlled it more naturally than he did. All he could do was be held in place, weaponless save for himself. In his mind's eyes, he was already pulling up the Points Shop for anything he could purchase to get him out of this entrapment.
Did he need to rise up and increase his stages in Qi Condensation, it seemed to be the case. Through sheer will alone wasn't enough to combat someone of more experience and knowledge, his best chance was cutting through it—
The once few options of the Charm Shop had transformed into a much organized, but comprehensive Points Shop.

"What's so interesting about the wall?" Mitsuko eyed him with some wariness. If she were in his position, he should have been grovelling already and asking for mercy. He should have stood down at a moment's notice when she'd given him the chance.
Li Yang's gaze flickered momentarily to her. "Am I supposed to look a woman in the eye? I think it'd only cause further trouble if I did."
All words spoken to buy him some time in trying to grasp what he should do. Simply increasing his Qi Condensation wouldn't cut it, this woman was using some kind of technique.
"... You may try to sound quick-witted, but such things like that do not amuse me at all. Now explain your situation and if you try to be sarcastic, you'll regret it."
Li Yang cleared his throat. "Which one in particular?"
Mitsuko's patience wore a little thinly with this man. It was like her words were simply bouncing off of his skull and not being given much second thought. It was clear that he was in a worse position than before, but he still talked as if he was unrestrained.
She sighed and decided that perhaps he was just an idiot. Her gaze settled on him and she asked again, "How did you obtain your ability to use Ao? Do not try lying because I can tell." It was a fine skill to use one's Ao to sense shifts and sudden changes in the man's aura if he lied or not.
"The Heavens blessed me."
His words held a ring of truth.
Was he delusional or had the Goddess truly blessed a man to receive the skills she provided to women like her? It wasn't easy to accept, but where else would he gain the ability to do so? If this ability had been allowed by the goddess and he was the first she encountered—
Who was she to go against what the Goddess allowed? He wasn't an abomination then. Not a successful attempt of evil factions to gain power through detestable means. However, their priorities might still not align with one another.
"Do you have any ill-intentions with the Mashiro Temple and its individuals?" she asked.
"No."
"Then why are you here?"
"Because Lady Setsuko—"
"No, give me the real reason."
"I want to obtain power to protect those I wish to care for," he said. And he truly did, but for now he hoped it was enough to distract her.
The Unique Skills Tab was opened. If there was anything more specific to help him out of this confinement, then it would be this—numerous numbers of pages flickered across from him. It was like he had only been looking at a catalogue before, but now he had access to an archive.

There was no time to even bother filtering right now, if things were to turn ugly. While he had hope that his words made her reconsider her decisions, he didn't like leaving up to chance at all.

Li Yang's entire body turned translucent like a fading spectre of life and the shackles of a physical body dispersed at this very moment.
He was gone.
Mitsuko's eyes widened at the sudden disappearance of the man—until she felt a deathly chill run through her body. It was death, imminent death that struck her core into a gnawing sensation of the world which was to come, no, of oblivion and darkness.
And then she felt the tip of something prodding her back. Immensely sharp that dug through her skin and into her backbone. The sight of even the obsidian sword had already vanished away earlier.
It was now in the man's hands.
"While I admit that your technique is impressive, your mastery of Ao immense and your own internal reservoir something unattainable for others—it means nothing if you cannot even hold me down, Priestess Mitsuko. Your attacks are a bit meaningless in this situation."
