Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Cat Demon
"Wait. Lei Jiutian suddenly spoke up and stopped Luffy, "That golden big sword ......"
"It didn't endorse me. Luffy smiled indifferently, "I still know that." ”
Although he touched the golden sword at that time, he did not withstand the killing intent of the sword, so that he fainted directly, so he knew that he was not recognized by the sword.
"It could have been successful, but alas...... Just a little bit. Lei Jiutian said with regret.
Luffy shook his head slightly, "It's a small difference, it's a thousand miles, even if it's just a little, when you can't succeed, you can't succeed." ”
The will carried by that sword is something he can't control now, so he doesn't plan to force it.
"Where are you going now?" asked Lei Jiutian.
"I ......"
"Luffy will accompany me to the Wind Clan first. Without waiting for Luffy to speak, Lu Xuexin immediately said.
In fact, Luffy Fei originally wanted to say that he was going to the Valley of Immortals and Demons, but now that he was interrupted by Lu Xuexin, he was not ready to say it.
As Xue Xin said. Luffy nodded.
"That's right. Lei Jiutian turned around expressionlessly, took out the Demon Suppression Sword from the storage ring and returned it to Luffy, "Then I won't give it away." ”
Luffy Fei took the Demon Suppression Sword and smiled, "That'...... Goodbye. ”
After saying that, he threw out the demon suppression sword with a "whoosh", kicked his feet, stepped on the sword hard, and began to fly with his spiritual power.
"Goodbye, master. The corners of Lu Xuexin's mouth raised a beautiful arc, smiled charmingly, drew out a thin sword, kicked off his feet, waved the scabbard in his hand, and jumped out diagonally.
Lei Jiutian looked at the two figures in the distance, but there was a trace of sorrow between his eyebrows.
......
In mid-air, Luffy flew and Lu Xuexin's sword in parallel, the arrogant wind stirred Lu Xuexin's long black hair, and the two pigtails next to his ears were also blown up and down by the wind.
The Wind Clan is in the northernmost part of the Star-Moon Empire, so even if the Imperial Monk Edgeworth flies, it will take three or four days to rush through the ThunderClan.
Tired halfway, Luffy and the two spent the night directly in a post house in a nearby town, and were hacked twice by a black store halfway.
Four days later.
Luffy Fei and Lu Xuexin both stepped on the flying sword and flew very low.
It was early in the morning, the magnificent morning glow in the east was fascinating, the air was filled with a light veil-like mist, and the grass beside the road was still left with undried dewdrops.
According to Lu Xuexin's map, the Wind Clan is hidden in a large forest, and the forest over there has already caught Luffy's eye at this moment.
This large forest, called the Forest of Winds, is the largest forest within the Star-Moon Empire, and three-quarters of it is outside the circle.
No one knows when this forest appeared, and legend has it that a powerful man ordered the emperor to cross it but never returned, indicating that there may be some terrifying creatures in the forest.
"Luffy, wait for me. "No, it's really not Lu Xuexin's strong point, and after a few steps, Lu Xuexin began to pant.
"You're really ...... Nothing has changed. Luffy smiled bitterly, and the first time he arrived in Los City a few years ago came to his mind.
At that time, Lu Xuexin seemed to be like this, and she didn't walk long before she got tired.
"Hey, are the two fellow Daoists also here to practice?"
Not long after entering the forest, a male voice came from behind him.
Luffy Fei and Lu Xuexin turned back almost at the same time.
The voice came from a silver-haired young man, he was physically stronger than Luffy, he looked slightly older than Luffy, and he was wearing a black uniform, which Luffy had seen a lot in the Destiny Academy before.
It seems to be a disciple of a certain Heavenly Mandate Academy.
"Are you?" Luffy looked at him warily.
It doesn't look like a bad guy.
"My name is Zhao Feng, and I am a student of the Advanced Heavenly Mandate Academy. The boy scratched the back of his head and smiled.
"My name is Luffy, and I'm here to explore. Luffy opened his mouth and came.
"My name is Lu Xuexin. Lu Xuexin said with a smile.
"Adventure? The two Taoist friends are really elegant. Zhao Feng said with a big grin.
"It's not elegant, it's just idle. "Luffy Flyway.
"Haha, yes, can we go together?" Zhao Feng was also a self-acquaintance, and opened his mouth to say.
Hearing this, Luffy frowned slightly, obviously unwilling.
They came to find the Wind Clan tribe on this trip, and it was obviously not good to bring such a person.
"Isn't it okay?" Zhao Feng's eyes darkened, and he was about to turn around and leave.
"Then let's go together, after all, there are a lot of demon beasts in this forest, and one more person is better to take care of. Luffy shrugged and smiled.
Lu Xue saw that Luffy Fei agreed, so she didn't say anything.
"Is it really possible? it won't cause you trouble, right?" Zhao Feng's eyes burned.
"As long as you talk less. "Luffy is not a polite person either.
"Okay, I'll try to talk as little as possible. Zhao Feng patted his chest and reassured.
And just like that, the three of them began to move forward together.
After walking some distance deeper, the footprints on the ground were already very thin, and the vegetation was much denser than where they had first entered.
The wilderness is intoxicating, with sparkling dew on the meadows and the aroma of grass, flowers, and moist earth.
Occasionally encountering a few strange footprints, Zhao Feng would stop and carefully observe the surroundings.
Seeing him so careful, Luffy Fei and Lu Xuexin glanced at each other, and they couldn't help but smile.
Suddenly, a sharp light flashed in Zhao Feng's eyes, his ears moved, he squatted down vigilantly, closed his eyes, and released his spiritual power to the maximum to feel the abnormal fluctuations around him.
Seeing Zhao Feng's abnormal behavior, Luffy Fei and Lu Xuexin also became vigilant. The two of them formed a triangle with Zhao Feng, concentrating their mental power to observe the movements around them.
"There's a strong aura around you. Luffy said in a low voice.
"It's a demon beast!" Zhao Feng's face sank, and he wiped his index finger on the storage ring, and the general black iron long sword appeared in his hand.
It was a royal weapon.
Meow!
An eerie meow sounded, followed by a black shadow shuttling back and forth around. Although he couldn't see clearly, Luffy could guess that it was a cat based on the characteristics of his movements.
It moves extremely fast, like lightning.
"It's a cat demon. Zhao Feng's gaze was as sharp as a sword, and the black iron sword was in front of him.
The next moment, a cloud of black mist emerged from under Zhao Feng's feet, enveloping the three of them.
Luffy Fei and Lu Xuexin were both calm and composed, as if what was happening in front of them had nothing to do with them.
Meow ——
An afterimage suddenly broke through the fog, and the sharp claws grabbed straight at Zhao Feng, if you looked closely, you would find that there was a faint red light flickering on the claws.
Saying that it was too late, Zhao Feng stepped on the ground, his body retreated a few meters, and the colorful halo on the black iron sword infused with life force flowed, and a sword swung out, and the resulting air wave knocked the cat demon out of dozens of meters!
At this moment, the cat demon's entire body was exposed to the eyes of the three of them.
The cat demon is nearly three meters long from head to tail, with dark fur, pointed ears, eyes as clear as two emeralds, and a tail half a meter long.
At this time, it was circling around the three of them, a row of sharp teeth were exposed, its eyes were vertical, and the black hairs on its whole body stood up, like silver needles, glowing with cold light.
"Don't move, I'll take care of it. Zhao Feng gritted his teeth and walked with a strange pace, and the high-speed movement made his body illusory.
In his eyes, both Luffy and Lu Xuexin are weak people who should be protected, because he can't feel even a trace of strength from Luffy and the others.
After Zhao Feng approached the cat demon, he quickly pointed out with a sword.
The torrential rain of sword light poured down on the cat demon, and the sound of the sword cutting through the air was like a storm crashing on the shore.
Between the lightning and flint, Zhao Feng's black iron sword and the cat demon's claws had collided dozens of times, and each collision would splash sparks.
"He's okay, right?" Lu Xuexin asked in a low voice.
"No matter what people say, they are also a monk, at least they won't be killed by that cat demon in seconds. Luffy smiled faintly.
