Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Mysterious Woman
"Rich, willful?" Long Xuan suddenly remembered the word, and burst out, Sakura rolled her eyes, and said, "It is because of the existence of the Tiancong Cloud Sword, so the mission of the Inoue family for generations is to protect it." The main purpose of building such a luxurious shrine is to set up various seals so that it can stay here safely. ”
Long Xuan nodded to show that he understood, as the saying goes, wealth is not exposed. Even though the Inoue family has strong financial resources, these financial resources are far less attractive than those of a divine sword. If the other two families had easily learned the whereabouts of Excalibur, I am afraid that the Inoue family would have been destroyed long ago.
"Then the seal here has been broken now?" Long Xuan asked, feeling the coercion that had been faintly appearing around him since he went up the mountain.
"It shouldn't be yet, it's just a signal that is reflected by the surrounding demonic energy. Sakura said.
Long Xuan nodded, since the island country of Fuji has become a dead island, even though the exorcists of the church continue to come, they still can't stop the invasion of the demons. It can be said that this place has been made alive by the church into a holy place for the demon race.
"It felt a bit insulting. Long Xuan silently laughed at the church's actions in his heart, and then followed Sakura's footsteps towards the shrine.
And just when the two of them walked to the middle of the courtyard, suddenly the air in front of them shook, and a huge snake-shaped monster appeared in front of them, with cold eyes and continuous swallowing snake letters, giving people a chilling feeling.
Sakura and Long Xuan immediately prepared for battle, and the two of them had fought a lot of monsters along the way, and their cooperation was getting better and better, and a poisonous snake was not a big deal.
And just as the two of them were getting ready, the air around them suddenly shook at the same time, and one by one strange-shaped monsters actually surrounded Sakura and Long Xuan in the middle.
"I'll go, and the monsters will also set traps? Long Xuan's cheeks trembled a few times, the monsters were not strong, but there were too many of them, and they were also in great trouble.
"You're not, I'm not. Sakura glanced at Long Xuan, and then said, "It should be that we didn't activate the apostle state when we came here, and the vitality on our bodies made the remaining demonic energy here activate these monsters." ”。
"Then what will happen if we activate the apostle status now?" Long Xuan swallowed and stood back to back with Sakura, the giant blade in his hand pointed at the monster.
"That only makes the monsters even crazier. Sakura said, "Creature monsters are different from those death monsters, they have a strong heavenly desire. If they smell the blood of the god on your body, they will attack you even more frantically, trying to get the blood of the god in you to evolve themselves. ”
"Damn, treat us as Tang Seng!" Long Xuan scolded in a low voice, flipped over with a giant blade in his hand, and shouted in a low voice: "The back will be handed over to you!"
"Don't worry!" Sakura replied, and the two of them rushed towards the monsters in opposite directions at the same time.
Although today's Long Xuan is still not as agile as Sakura, after Sakura's training and the test of life and death during this period of time, it has given him more combat experience. It can be said that his growth is more in battle, and his potential and the power of the apostle make him like a fish in water in battle.
But the only difference is that this time neither of them activated the apostle state, there are too many monsters, and the two are also afraid that the monsters are too crazy.
Seeing a spider monster stepping on the back of Long Xuan's head, a light and shadow flashed, it was Sakura, who was holding a katana, and with one easy knife, he cut the spider monster in two.
"The second time I was saved from the spider monster. Long Xuan slashed the monster in front of him with a knife, turned to Sakura and smiled. After only a while, the two of them had already eliminated all the monsters that appeared in the courtyard.
Sakura pursed her lips and smiled, remembering the scene when the two met for the first time, of course, she would not have thought that Long Xuan's biggest impression of her at that time was to dig out the spider monster with her bare hands......
Quickly shook his head, looking at Sakura, who was smiling sweetly in front of him, Long Xuan decided not to think about such a disobedient picture anymore.
The two of them came to the closed door of the shrine, and did not put away the weapons in their hands, for fear of being attacked by monsters when they pushed the door open.
Sakura reached out and slowly pushed the door open, and the room was very empty, with a statue of a goddess sitting in the middle of the house.
"What is this?" Long Xuan didn't know much about the structure of the Fuji Island Shrine, but he also thought that this should be the goddess enshrined in this shrine, right?
"This is not a goddess. Who knew that Sakura saw through Long Xuan's thoughts, shook his head and said, "This statue is carved with the sword spirit of the Heavenly Cloud Sword. ”
"Shrimp?" Long Xuan paused for a moment, Sword Spirit, this is not a fantasy movie, is it? But thinking about what happened around him, this sentence was silently swallowed in his stomach.
"The Tiancong Cloud Sword has been sealed in this shrine since I was sensible, and the sword spirit has never appeared. However, according to the ancestral home of the Inoue family, in the ancestors of the Inoue family, when the Tiancong Cloud Sword was still a divine soldier on the battlefield, the sword spirit appeared. Sakura said.
"That should also be a male character, right?A divine sword, how could it be a female sword spirit?" Long Xuan read the sword name of the Tiancong Cloud Sword several times, and didn't feel that it was a female name at all.
"I don't know, this statue has been there since ancient times. Sakura shook her head.
"It's okay, the truth will come out in a while. Long Xuan said, after a while, Sakura will get the Tiancong Cloud Sword, and the sword spirit of the Tiancong Cloud Sword will always have a new owner of the white ash!
"Hehe!" Just as the two of them stepped forward, the door behind the door suddenly closed by itself, making a thud. Immediately, an ethereal laughter came, making it impossible to feel the specific direction of the sound.
"Girls?" Long Xuan frowned, the island country of Fuji had long been destroyed, and this was a forbidden place within a forbidden place, where did the other girls come from? Are they people from the church? or monsters?
And just when the two of them were on guard, a black air mass slowly appeared under the feet of the god statue in front of the hall, and a random eerie figure slowly appeared in the black air mass.
A gorgeous dark red mink fur was worn very randomly on his body, revealing a snow-white neck and a large area of beauty on his chest, and Long Xuan could see the deep ravine and the sphere at the corner of the ice peak. The long black hair does not have any headdress on it, but it is scattered in the back of the head, but it gives people a sense of atmosphere.
At the moment when she looked up, Long Xuan and Sakura saw a bewitching face without any flaws, but the blood-red eyes made the two of them shudder instantly, and the coldness in those pupils was a complete disregard for life.
"Let me smell it, this is, the blood of the Inoue family?" slowly opened the red lips, and the voice was as bewitching as his appearance.
The two were stunned for a moment, and random Long Xuan whispered to Sakura: "She just said 'smell', it seems that she is not a human, right?"
"Nonsense. Sakura replied, "Which human opens it like this?"
"But it looks so familiar!" Long Xuan frowned, and his eyes inadvertently swept over the stone statue next to the woman, the first glance, the second glance......
