Chapter 59: Seals, Death, and Funerals
"What's going on?"
Mourning, Susu, and the bitter weeping of the villagers.
When Su Mo got off the back of an eagle-like monster he caught casually, the Maple Village he saw was such a scene.
"Hey, who's going to tell me what the hell this is, what's going on?"
In the center of the clearing that surrounded the villagers was a platform neatly erected with firewood, covered with blue-purple bellflower flowers, and a beautiful woman wearing a shrine maiden costume with her eyes closed, her expression serene, and her hands holding up the magic trick with a serene, with a jewel embedded between them.
Kikyo Stem.
"Su Mo, big brother?"
Hearing Su Mo's voice, the little girl kneeling closest to the wooden shelf turned around with a crying voice.
Xiao Feng, the younger sister of Kikyo, accidentally injured her right eye and has been wrapped in a bandage.
"What's going on?"
This was the third time he had asked.
Seeing Su Mo coming, the villagers with sad faces spontaneously moved out of the way—and then Su Mo found that almost every man in the villagers had wounds on his body to some degree.
"Before, there was a youkai who looked exactly like Yako and attacked my sister."
Xiao Feng's first sentence made Su Mo's heart skip a beat: "It's exactly the same as Yezi!?" ”
"Yes, Sister Kikyo said that there is no difference in even the breath of demonic power! If it weren't for Sister Kikyo, she would have been fooled if she found out that guy didn't even know a trace of kendo, but even so, my sister was so seriously injured! And then died of exhaustion in order to save Sister Yoko!! ”
"Help, Yako?"
Kikyo was still lying on the wooden shelf with that serene expression, and the long jet-black hair that had been tied in a bundle of white ribbons had been spread out. Her lips were smeared with the most vivid red, and if it weren't for the fact that her face was too pale, people would simply think that it was just a beauty sleeping.
"Where's the night?"
His fists clenched and rattled with him, and Su Mo rushed over with Esther so quickly because he sensed that Yezi had been fatally attacked.
"Yoko was also attacked by that youkai, and when she staggered back, her sister found that there was still a vicious power in her body eroding - if her sister was still in a complete state, it could have been cleared, but at that time my sister couldn't do it anymore, so she used her last strength to seal Yoko on the Mijin Tree, and used her sister's spiritual power and the power of the Mijin Wood to heal and protect Yoko"
As he spoke, a series of tears burst out of Xiao Feng's only remaining eye, which was already swollen with crying.
"The purpose of attacking the enemy, is it really the Jade of the Four Souls?"
Except for the Jade of the Four Souls, Su Mo couldn't think of anything that would make Kikyo and Yazi attack.
"Hmmm! That's why my sister said that she wanted us to cremate the Jade of the Four Souls with her - she wanted to take the Jade of the Four Souls to another world together!! ”
The wind whined and blew, disturbing Su Mo's long hair violently.
"Esther."
He called softly.
"I am your sword."
Silvery light flashes.
"I'm so bold - I don't care if you just smell something fishy or are instigated by that daring youkai"
Sideways, raise your sword
-- Boom!!!!
It was only a slender sword that was usually held in a person's hand, but the entire forest next to it and the mountain peak behind it were crushed to pieces like a giant's blow!
"Die here for me!!"
Kara -
Like the sound of a brand new white paper being torn, the space in front of you was violently ravaged and then torn apart!
"Whew!!"
This was followed by terrifying eyes from the villagers, which in their eyes were like god-like power.
“――!!!! What kind of monster is that!! ”
And in the direction where Su Mo swung his sword, an evil man with only one head left was full of horror - even if it was a monster, his whole body was shattered, and it was quite difficult to survive with only one head left, but in his eyes, he did not have the slightest worry about his life and death.
-- There was only endless horror.
He quietly informed all the surrounding youkai who had gathered for the Jade of the Four Souls, but they didn't dare to do it due to the power of Kikyo and Yako, and the news that Kikyo was dead, and Yako was also seriously injured and sealed, so when Kikyo's funeral was held, no less than a thousand youkai were entangled together and rushed here to take the opportunity to snatch the Jade of the Four Souls, but as a result, except for his own head, all the other youkai were ravaged into powder under the sword of the other party, along with the mountain peak, the forest, and the space!!
"Obviously, there are two beginner-level big monsters."
The miasma began to envelop the monster's last remaining head - he had suffered such trauma since birth, and he knew very well that if he hadn't carefully hid behind the rear and ran away when the situation was not good, he would have absolutely no hope of survival!
"It's time for the long term!"
Glancing towards Kaede Village with a tremor that he hadn't even noticed, the ghostly man in black had already put away his sword and walked towards the largest sacred tree in the village, and the youkai no longer hesitated, and turned around and fled frantically with a thick miasma
"Yoko"
Su Mo stood in front of the huge sacred tree, with an expression that he didn't know how to describe, as he looked at Yoko, who was nailed to the tree by Kikyo's arrow piercing his heart - it was a sealed arrow full of Kikyo's spiritual power, and it didn't do any physical harm to Yoko.
"Hmm-"
He stretched out his hand, and as soon as his pale fingertips touched the end of the arrow, it was blocked by a sudden surge of electricity on it.
Of course, that kind of power can't stop Su Mo, but he also knows very well that the situation of Yoko is very complicated now, according to Kaede, there is an evil force in her body that is eroding, and Kikyo sealed her here to save her. And Su Mo couldn't sense the slightest bit of vitality from the current Yezi - not even a corpse, just like a stone on the side of the road! Obviously, this is Kikyo's arrow, which seals Yako in all directions to protect and heal. But this also caused Su Mo to dare not do it at will, as far as it was concerned, there was no way to let her get rid of this seal except to let Yezi be sealed like this until it was intact.
"This can be"
The corners of Su Mo's mouth were hooked obliquely, but one hand pressed his chest—there was a pitch-black aura surging there.
"Is it such an obvious reaction?"
He had driven the sword intent and used the magic power before, and the use of the sword intent alone was no problem at all, but in order to strengthen the deterrent power under that anger, he also directly used all the magic power that he originally used to suppress and digest the evil of this world.
The moves used are indeed very strong, but the evil of this world, which has been trapped for a long time at that moment, also directly launched a fierce charge after seeing a little gap!
"It's not a big problem, though."
That's what he thought.
Then he sat cross-legged in front of the night who was sealed in the tree and closed his eyes, and his face was so calm that he couldn't associate it with the naughty and rebellious girl before.
Behind him were flames and smoke rising high up. (To be continued.) )
