Lu Xiao had just jumped off the beam and was about to clean up the mess, when there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps at the door of the main hall, and at this time Lu Xiao had no time to dodge, and just happened to take a look at the third lone shadow who entered the door.

"You!"

Seeing the corpse that was about to die, the lone shadow immediately threw a large shuriken at Lu Xiaofei.

Using the Hidden Blade to flick away a few shuriken that enveloped his body, Lu Xiao rushed towards the other party without retreating.

The brave wins when they meet on a narrow road, although there are some accidents and there is a third hidden breath of the lone shadow people nearby, but at the moment, they can only fight quickly and kill him as quickly as possible.

Lu Xiao, who was speeding up to the limit, pulled out an afterimage in the eyes of this lonely shadow, and seeing that the Hidden Blade was about to stab into the opponent's neck, Lu Xiao suddenly stumbled under his feet, and unconsciously lowered his head and coughed lightly.

"Ahem!"

Lu Xiao: "??? ”

‘wdnmd！ How long have you been acting alone? This is a dead dragon cough!? And why me? How could it be me? ’

Dragon cough is a disease caused by absorbing the vitality of the people around him after the death of the dragon yin blessing.

Lu Xiao, whose vitality was locked by the Staff of Hermes, should not have been a victim of the dragon cough, but he was tricked.

is still in the middle of the battle at the moment, so Lu Xiao can't be distracted too much.

A moment's cough interrupted Lu Xiao's assault, and the third Lone Shadow Crowd, who had misestimated the enemy's strength, was given a moment of respite.

The frightened Lone Shadow immediately took out his poisonous left hand from his chest, and a set of specially trained poisonous moves struck Lu Xiao, who slowed down slightly.

The left arm move of the lonely shadow is very strange, and the angle of the move is contrary to common sense, if it weren't for Lu Xiao's amazing dynamic eyesight, it is really possible to be overshadowed by the opponent's sudden move.

"Bow to the punch!"

Stretching his elbow to deflect the poisonous move of the Lone Shadow Crowd, the second palm blow of the percussion fist hit the opponent's chest with Lu Xiao's arm stretched out.

"Bell!"

The Taidao held by the Lone Shadow with his right hand barely blocked the impact of Lu Xiao's percussion fist, but the huge force still pushed the blocking Taidao against the Lone Shadow's chest.

"Ahem!"

As the thin sword broke, the lone shadow coughed up a mouthful of blood from the wound on his chest.

"Demon Breaker!"

The mystery of the bow fist is the last shoulder collision that follows the posture and strength, similar to the iron mountain of Bajiquan.

"Boom!"

The lone shadows with the middle door wide open were completely knocked away by the ferocious impact, and slammed into the wall behind them.

At this point in the battle, Lu Xiao had already won 80%, but he still did not relax his vigilance, and the last blow of the knocking fist Ao Yi failed to concentrate all his strength in one place because he forced a cough, giving the other party the last chance to gamble.

"Drink!"

The lone shadows endured the pain and turned over and jumped up, and the people quickly kicked Lu Xiao multiple combos in mid-air.

'Foot of the Immortal Peak? It came at the right time. ’

In order to express his sincerity to the inner government, the bald donkey of Xianfeng Temple taught the secret skills of the temple to the lonely shadows in advance, and at the moment of the fight, the lonely shadows finally used this fierce leg method.

Lu Xiao used the same power skills to bounce off the ground, and with his higher agility attributes, he hit the opponent first, and cracked the opponent's posture hard.

"Die!"

The last move of Xianfeng's foot was a vertical kick aimed at the lower section, and the lonely shadow group whose move was broken was kicked in the head by Lu Xiao, and was forcibly pressed back to the ground from the air, and before he landed, he had already lost his life breath due to the rupture of his skull.

"Ahem!"

After the battle ended, Lu Xiao couldn't help but cough twice.

As is customary, he closed his eyes on the three lone corpses.

Entering the inner hall again and instructing Kotaro to put these three people into the ground, Lu Xiao coughed and ran up and down Mount Kongo.

"System, come out!"

"Host, please."

"Why am I affected by the dragon's cough? Isn't my life force locked? ”

System: "The host seems to have a misunderstanding of dragon cough, and the absorption of life force is only one of the triggers of dragon cough, and this distorted disease cannot be completely avoided with the vitality intact." ”

"The host's vitality has not decreased, and the symptoms of dragon cough will not worsen further in you, and it will show an ordinary cough phenomenon."

Lu Xiao shook his head speechlessly: "Sure enough, the rules of this magical world are difficult to completely understand, forget it...... Anyway, let's go back and see how it goes. ”

……

When Lu Xiao returned to Reed City, many residents were weakly leaning on the side of the road and bowing their heads and coughing violently, which was much more serious than Lu Xiao's symptoms.

Black smoke rises from the upper floors of the castle tower, and it is clear that someone has set fire to the upper floors, and it seems that Genichiro is still stuck in the Valley of the Fallen and has not returned in time, and there is chaos in Ashina Castle.

"Ahem~ Someone attacked the castle tower?"

Lu Xiao jumped onto the city wall and marched all the way to the heights, and on the way, he saw a lot of corpses of the Lonely Shadow and the Eagles, which were also mixed with some black hats.

"Hah!"

There was a loud shout from the martial arts training ground on the top floor of the castle tower, and a giant man who had risen more than 2 meters raised his large sword in his hand and split the wolf's body from his shoulder.

"Ugh!"

The wolf twitched slightly, his injuries recovering rapidly.

I see. ’

Seeing this scene, Lu Xiao finally understood the origin of the dragon's cough.

This white-haired giant man is the stepfather who adopted the wolf, the reed name Erwuzai who faked his death three years ago - the giant ninja owl.

All the skills of the wolf are taught by the owl, and it is natural that the father will form a one-sided situation when he hits his son, and it becomes a matter of course that the wolf is killed again and again before the wolf fails to figure out the opponent's attack routine.

However, the wolf is an immortal with the power of the dragon, and every time he dies, he will absorb the life force around him to resurrect, and the dragon cough will spread because of this.

Without alarming the two fathers and sons who continued to fight, Lu Xiao hid his aura and bypassed their combat area and entered the lower layer first.

Kurou is hiding in a corner of the castle tower under the protection of Eijin, and the tanuki of Kurosa is also guarding the two of them to fight the lone shadows who invade the castle tower.

It seems that these people closest to the battlefield have not been affected by the dragon cough, and Lu Xiao doesn't know why he was so coincidentally hit.

Is this the ethereal element of luck? That's why I can't draw Kao? ’

Shaking her head and putting aside the messy thoughts, Lu Xiao teleported behind Yongzhen with the ground-shrinking technique given by the one-word slash, and killed the lone shadow miscellaneous soldiers who appeared behind her with a single slash.

Shaking off the blood stains on the knife, Lu Xiao asked Jiulang, who was surprised, "Ahem~ How is the situation?" Did the Inner Government launch a large-scale offensive? ”

"Not really."

Yongzhen withdrew the short knife in his sleeve, sighed and said, "These lonely shadows were brought by the owl, and they plan to kidnap the prince by force. ”

Unlike the three Lonely Shadows who were killed by Lu Xiao before, the Lonely Shadows under the owl were all ordinary miscellaneous soldiers, and their combat effectiveness was far inferior to their leader.

But as the leader of the owl, he stumped Jiuro and the others, although the wolf who had just returned from the dungeon reconnaissance temporarily blocked his stepfather, but judging from the scene, the wolf was not the opponent of the owl at all.

"Ahem, we can't let the wolf continue to die, the dragon cough caused by his death is spreading rapidly in Ashina, let me go."

Lu Xiao casually killed the last person who invaded the castle tower, "Kurogasa no Tanuki, and the safety of the prince will be left to you to take care of." ”

"Yes."

"Yongzhen, with the dragon cough information left by His Excellency Daoxuan, you should be able to come up with a treatment plan, right?"

Yongzhen nodded solemnly: "The dragon cough is the greatest regret of the ancestor, and I will definitely do my best to fulfill his last wish." ”

Jiu Lang reminded with some concern: "Your Excellency Lu Xiao, please be careful, don't underestimate him because of his bulky size. ”

"Xiao can be said to be a ninja among ninjas, whether it is his combat ability or his ruthless heart without the slightest emotion in his mission, I suspect that he was secretly planning behind the tragedy of the Hirata Mansion three years ago."
