Although he already knew the true face of Yanagi Zongju, Ryuxia didn't do it immediately, this old man has other values, and it's a pity to die now.

After taking another turn in the castle tower and finding no other characters suspected of being heroic swordsmen, Ryuxia left the castle tower and returned to the hotel at night.

Everyone in the hotel was asleep, but Ryuxia still didn't alarm anyone, and returned to his room without a sound.

…………

The next day.

"Hey, did you hear that? It seems that an assassin broke into the castle tower last night, and even Tajima Mamoru from Edo had one of his hands cut off by the assassin! ”

"I've heard about it, and it's said that the assassin originally planned to attack Matsudaira Shimomomo-samarum, but he didn't expect to collide with Tajima Mamoru-sama."

"Alas, it's really not been peaceful lately......"

Before they had even gone out, they heard the people inside and outside the restaurant talking about it, and the geisha and the servants were talking about it with their noses and eyes, as if they had witnessed it with their own eyes, and they looked like they were talking about it.

In just one night, the Assassins' attack on the castle tower and the severance of one of Tamaru's hands spread through the city at a jaw-dropping speed, and many strange rumors spawned.

"Really?!"

During the breakfast, Musashi immediately showed a look of surprise after hearing about this, "That old man is a sword master who can't even compare to me, and he was actually killed by an assassin?" It can't be the hand of the Heroic Sword, right? ”

Musashi's strength is actually quite strong, even a second- or third-rate servant can fight with it, but the probability of defeat is very high, after all, the decisive difference between humans and heroic spirits cannot be made up by practicing a sword.

And according to her, the Yanagi Zongju she once encountered was able to defeat her within a few moves, which showed that the swordsman of the Sword Saint realm did have the possibility of fighting with the servant.

They have a level of consciousness far beyond ordinary people in many aspects such as the use of strength, the method of breathing, and the adjustment of pace, and it is not impossible to fight with some servants who are not too restrained by them.

But on the other hand, if you want to defeat this kind of sword master, and also cut off one of his arms in front of him, almost no one can do it except for the servant, after all, this kind of person himself has already stood at the pinnacle of human beings, and the secret skills he has comprehended, let alone a demonic beast, even the fantasy species has the possibility of matching.

"Why don't we go to the castle tower today to see how it's going?"

Fujimaru Rika thought for a moment and proposed to a few people: "If it is really the Heroic Spirit Sword Hero, then we must not sit idly by and let them continue, I don't know how many people will be killed." ”

A Ba Yu destroyed a country of Hitachi.

The devil knows if the few remaining Heroic Swordsmen will also go crazy like her, and then let countless people in a country be buried in purgatory, how many couples, children, and old people who live peacefully in this era, just thinking of the scene of them being buried in a strange mouth, is enough to make people shudder.

"I trust my lord's judgment, but how are we going to get in?"

Wind Demon Kotaro asked, "I'm afraid that the castle that guards a country is not something that we wandering samurai can easily enter. ”

In this era, they are just some wandering samurai, although they are respected and feared by the common people, but for some high-ranking officials and nobles, they don't care at all, and they have raised an unknown number of samurai who are willing to die for them.

"Well, it's up to Rikkato!"

Musashi snickered like this, and at the same time cast a narrow look at Fujimaru Rika, "After all, that daughter-sama regards Rika as a person of fate, and it should be easier to get in!" ”

When the orange-haired girl heard this, an extremely helpless look appeared on her face.

"Ryuxia-chan, are you going to go with you?" Musashi looked in Ryuxia's direction.

The rumors of the assassin are true, but as a party to the party, the truth of last night is actually very clear, after all, the so-called assassin is himself, and he is not a heroic swordsman at all.

"Just go, so that the demon will follow you, and I have other things to do."

Ryuxia didn't plan to go to the castle tower with them, it was just a trip for nothing, it was all useless, besides, he just felt that he had made a breakthrough, and it was too late to go deeper into cultivation, let alone go out with them.

Anyway, knowing the true face of Yanagi Zongju, his skill value improvement task has been basically confirmed to be completed, just wait for the mastermind behind the scenes to come up and then catch it all, you can solve this peculiarity and complete the treasure value improvement task, there is no need to rush to kill the Heroic Spirit Sword Hero.

Even if something really happened, he could quickly rush over by making the demon know, anyway, this hotel is only a few kilometers away from the castle tower, and it can be reached in half a minute.

"yes, then we're going!"

After breakfast, Fujimaru Rika, Musashi and Kazema Kotaro went to the castle tower, and the treasure temple Yinshun remained in the hotel.

Ryuxia found a vacant lot in the backyard of the hotel and practiced the sword on her own.

The so-called kendo does have a very incredible power, and others don't know, but the sword in the hand of Yanagi Zongju really has enough power to cut everything.

"The strength of the heart is not enough."

Ryuxia had already made his own problems clear, he didn't know what other kendo was like, but one thing he had learned from the battle with Yagyu was that Kenshin had to be strong.

It is true that Liuxia's will can be regarded as firm, but the heart and the will are not the same thing, the will is reflected in the unswerving, and the heart is more of a qualitative nature, guarding one's own body, not disturbed by any external objects, like the moon in the water.

Yagyu achieved the purpose of honing his mind through meditation, and Ryuxia almost had his own ideas, just waiting for the time to come.

The path he was going to follow was similar to the path of emptiness, and it was also close to the extreme intention of the new yin current, but in the end, the path he comprehended was probably not either of these two paths, but something specious.

And Yanagi Zongju is his last whetstone.

Before that time came, Yagyu couldn't die, so he let him go last night.

That time was near.

…………

When it was close to lunch at noon, Fujimaru Rika and the others returned to the hotel, each with a solemn expression.

"I got accurate news, I didn't expect that last night there really was a Heroic Sword Hero who broke into the castle tower and tried to assassinate him."

The first words that Fujimaru Rika said to Ryuxia made him unimpressed, but immediately after, her words made Ryusha can't help but look sideways.

"The other party seems to have left a warning letter, saying that he will come again tonight to assassinate him, and the target is not Matsudaira Shimoto, but his daughter Qingji!"
