Chapter 1: False Affection

A fishing village in northwestern Japan in July 568 of the Altino calendar

Amakusa Shiro knew the man in front of him. As one of the three great divine swords, although he has always been arrogant, he has also heard that among the rising stars of the new generation, there has been a proud and confident genius swordsman, who does not take others seriously, and turns the entire Wind Continent upside down.

Sword test the world, what an arrogant word, and what kind of crazy behavior?

At that time, I was in Japan, and I received a message from the Qinglou Alliance, looking at the information on the man's criss-cross, single-clothed and sword-ridden, defeating all the masters, and three times in the middle of the battle, although the result was not worth it in his eyes, but he still admired this madness.

Even when he was young, he may not have such crazy arrogance, and now because of his age, his anger has faded, and he is naturally even worse. And this madness is different from the kid Hua Tianxie, who really has strong strength and gambles his life.

A person is willing to do things with his life, whether his actions are correct or not, he can always shine the greatest light and heat, even if it cannot become the sun with eternity, but the light of the meteor that pierces the night sky in an instant is enough to scorch people's eyes.

At that time, if it wasn't limited by his promise, he actually wanted to go to the mainland in person and meet this meteor for a while. If it is really pleasing to the eye, then call him, and after sending him to the heavenly throne, go to Lu Lao'er first to clear up the grievances, and then come to fight with yourself, isn't it happy?

Later, I heard that he was defeated in the hands of Lu Lao'er, and since then he has been buried in the rivers and lakes, and he has made a living, and he can't help but feel sorry in his heart, and when he stepped on the Wind Continent again, this person has traveled overseas, and he missed it, and it is a pity that he did not have the opportunity to meet with him and discuss the sword with wine.

But he never imagined that at such a time, in a remote fishing village in his own country, he would meet this man who should not be here, and he would provoke himself with great arrogance, so that the battle could not be avoided.

Legend has it that this man used a beautiful swordsmanship called "Qinglian Sword Song".

Legend has it that this man has the uncommon title of Sword Immortal.

Legend has it that this man had long silver hair.

Legend has it that the man's name ...... It's called Li Yu.

(Why didn't the two of them talk to each other all the time?I thought they were going to do it soon!)

Standing far away, Niel looked at the two people who were standing still on the other side, and was very curious.

Amakusa Shiro, who had come to capture him, heard that the man who called himself "Hanajiro" had signed up, and without saying a word, he floated through the house and flew over a small hill next to the fishing village. After all, this is Amakusa Shiro's country, even if he is usually unscrupulous, he must not want to hurt innocent compatriots because of his heavenly position war, right?

Compared with the ferocious appearance of slaughtering dragons and ordinary people with hot hands when I first met him, this is really unfair and differential treatment......

The Hanajiro also chased him out, and he confronted Amakusa Shiro on the hill, looking at each other in a strange atmosphere.

The sudden situation made Amakusa Shiro unable to take care of himself for a while, but he had no intention of taking the opportunity to escape. It is the supreme glory of being born as a woman to let two masters duel because of themselves, how can you give up the opportunity to cheer for one of them and run away secretly?

It's just that these are supposed to be two people fighting for themselves, and after they went up the hill to face each other, they didn't look at their side again, which was really disappointing......

On the hill, there is a completely different atmosphere. Amakusa Shiro looked at the opponent in front of him, and at the same time glanced down, looking for the blue-shirted man who was walking with Li Yu, and when he heard him call Li Yu's junior brother, he was obviously also under the White Deer Cave, so he didn't know which of the seven disciples of Lu Lao'er's disciple was?

"Among Lu Lao'er's disciples, Zhou Gongjin is in The Hague, is he Tao Qian, or Wang Youjun?"

Tie up his long silver hair that was blown by the sea breeze with silk threads, a simple action, but there is a chic that others can't imitate, Li Yu showed a teasing smile on his face, looking at Amakusa Shiro's eyes, it was even more indescribably weird.

"Why bother? My senior brother has nothing to do with the White Deer Cave, and he is a person who never goes to the battlefield, and the key to winning or losing is still just you and me. Li Yu said: "There is no need to gossip anymore. It is rumored that you lost the battle of Tianguan in the north gate, and you lost after the drama, I am very interested in this record, I wonder if you can help me answer a question?"

"What's the problem?"

"I really want to know who else in the current White Deer Cave can take my sword. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately started to work. The sword bloomed, as if it was a meteor swaying out of his hand, but it immediately disappeared after leaving his hand, and he lost his original dazzling momentum.

Listening to his opponent speak like that, Amakusa Shiro was already on guard, but suddenly felt a strong surge and pushed him backwards.

(How could there be such a thing?) This kind of power can't be a strong celestial position, he ...... οΌ‰

Even if you don't believe it, you can't help it, the too obvious facts are right in front of you. In his hurry, he was not strong enough, and he was pushed back by this sword pressure, and Amakusa Shiro could only protect himself with all his strength to resist the torrent of energy coming from the impact, but he still couldn't hold the momentum, and he only felt that his whole body was in pain, and he couldn't stop his body, like a leaf in a storm, and in a blink of an eye, he was blown out of sight.

The sword pressure when the sword was out was already so powerful, and the true power of this sword also began to appear a moment after the sword was released.

Nier, who was watching the battle below, saw the two above and said that they stiffened, and they were feeling excited, wanting to see what other magical tricks Amakusa Shiro had, how did he know that as soon as the "Hanajiro" hand was raised, the sword light suddenly brightened, and then Amakusa Shiro disappeared.

(What's going on?Where did Amakusa Shiro go?What is he doing when he has nothing to do?Does he want to fight a long-distance battle in the sky?)

Nile turned her head to look, in all directions, there was no trace of Shiro Amakusa, and she was about to see it again, but suddenly she was blown by a sudden gust of wind, and her eyes hurt so much, she couldn't help but reach out and rub her eyes, and when she opened her eyes again, the world had changed.

The sea breeze that was blowing was stopping, and the sound of seagulls could not be heard in the air, and the ears were silent, and the fishing village remained the same, but there seemed to be something different, and the fishermen in the village were looking at something with horrified eyes......

Looking at the past according to their eyes, there is nothing special in the hollow, there is a blue wall next to it, extending into the distance, there is nothing special, I can't realize it for a while, why are the villagers so surprised?

Wait a minute...... That direction should be the sea!

Surprised by her discovery, Nier hurriedly looked at it, only to see that a mile away from the pier, where it was originally the ocean, there was a huge depression about half a mile wide and deep, extending straight ahead, and the sea water on both sides was piled up high, but it seemed to be forced by some force, and it couldn't fall down for a while.

(W-What is this? I'm not dreaming, am I?)

Even Nier, who had personally experienced the battle between the two powerhouses outside the North Gate Tianguan, couldn't believe what she saw, and when she rubbed her eyes again, the sound of the wind in her ears had already replied, and she only heard a huge "bang" sound, and the blue waves collapsed instantly, and a thin white line in the distance, connecting the sea and sky, moved towards this side.

Soon, when the white line gradually approached, it became a huge wall of sea that swallowed the sky and the sun, and the wind swept away everything around her, and Niel, who had never seen such a tsunami, was suddenly frightened and did not know how to deal with it.

(If it is impossible to stop it, evacuate people immediately and save one by one...... οΌ‰

The tsunami came so fast that as soon as Niel hesitated, countless waves had already cracked the pier, obscuring the midday sun at all, and it was pitch black, and the sky collapsed.

Suddenly, a white light suddenly lit up from the hill, like a meteor shower, and sprinkled colorfully on the five locations outside the village, connecting and intertwining into a five-pointed star enchantment circle, bursting with strong light, forming a shield above the village before the huge wall of the waves collapsed.

I could only hear the sound of a strong wind howling between heaven and earth, the ground shaking violently under my feet, and the surrounding people were full of terror and sorrow, but above it was a strange dark blue, as if the scene of the end of the world, and it lasted like this for a while, and then it returned to calm.

The fishing village was originally built on a small hill, surrounded by several hills and woods, but now in addition to the fishing village itself, there is also a small hill behind it, and within nearly 100 miles, it is flat, and all of it is a devastated scene after the tsunami hits.

Heaven and earth are mighty, even Nier was secretly frightened, and when she looked up, she saw Amakusa Shiro standing in the air, his clothes in tatters, and he was extremely embarrassed. Although he was not injured, he vaguely saw that his face was ugly, and he looked this way, and then looked at the sea that had returned to calm, and turned around like this.

"Hahaha~~"

As he turned and left, a very arrogant and rude laugh rang out from the hill, as if deliberately mocking the ugliness of the enemy, and the sound resounded through the sky and spread far in all directions.

Nile watched Shiro Amakusa's figure disappear, and the feeling in her heart was really weird. Although she had been hostile to this man since they met, and hated his cruelty and murder, he had always treated him kindly and pleasantly, which was really good, and now seeing him leave like this, I only felt ...... He must have felt very uncomfortable.

Beimen Tianguan was defeated by Lu You in the first battle, and now he has lost to Lu You's disciples, and the loss is so ugly, he was killed instantly before he could make a move. Such a shame is a major blow to anyone who practices martial arts, especially when the other party laughs so mercilessly, it's really sad for him to think about it.

The shrill laughter from above still came, and Niel was annoyed, and flew over the hill.

Landing on the hill, except for the silver-haired man who was making a nasty laugh, it was the blue-shirted man who was walking with him, his right palm was stretched out, and a faint light was slowly disappearing from it, and it seemed that the light mask just now came from his hand.

Niel looked at the two on the hill in a strange mood, not sure if her other question was right.

The name Hanajiro, once heard Yuyuki boast, is the man who married his brother and Gengoro in Siam. Although his nose and face were swollen, he looked really embarrassed, and it didn't match the image of the person he heard, but the arrogant attitude of laughing, and the long silver-white hair, should be right.

This man is ...... Sword Immortal?

His martial arts skills must be very strong? Who can hurt him like this? Why did he come to this Japanese fishing village when he had already gone overseas? Also, the sound of his laughter was really annoying......

"Hey, stop laughing, everyone is gone, who are you smiling at?"

It didn't seem appropriate to talk to her life-saver, but Nill didn't think much of it for a moment, so she strode up and pointed at her nose and cursed.

The laughter stopped.

Li Yu turned his head and looked at Nier with a smile, although he was not half malicious, but in Nier's eyes, he still felt that he was very humble in front of this person. People in the rivers and lakes said that he was defeated by Lu You at the beginning, this is really a hell, although he doesn't know much about the realm of the strong heavenly position, but he doesn't believe that Lu You can take the amazing sword that breaks the earth and divides the sea, otherwise Amakusa would not be so shocked that he left without a fight, if he was also such a sword when he fought against Lu You, he would have razed the White Deer Cave to the ground a long time ago.

"Hey...... You...... Why don't you laugh again?"

It did feel very strange, when he laughed wildly, he listened very unpleasantly, but when he stopped laughing now, and looked this way, a pair of distant eyes, as if he saw himself, and as if he saw nothing, this feeling...... It's really uncomfortable.

"Alas...... No matter how happy you are, it's really funny if a person who is unconscious can still laugh......"

It was the blue-shirted man behind Li Yu who spoke, and Nier quickly understood what he meant. Several poignant explosions of flesh and bones in a row seemed to be the sound of bones breaking in the body, and from the dense frequency, I am afraid that it is very likely to be broken into seventeen or eighteen sections, and then, a large amount of blood rain seems to erupt from every pore on his body, and at the same time that the whole person is shrouded in a dark red blood, he falls forward.

"Ah~~!"

Niel rarely screamed like she does now, but in her past combat experience, she had hardly seen such a tragic situation, and her mind was chaotic, and the scream came out, and the first thought was: Unless there is an ether immortal body, otherwise such a serious injury will definitely die.

Fortunately, Ni'er was not the only one present at the moment, and if he hadn't known in advance, he wouldn't have left the journey that should have rushed to the Silk Country and followed this junior brother to the west......

"Huh?"

It was the same scream, but not out of fear and fright, but bewildered. The time was so short that Nier couldn't even tell what she saw, but she vaguely remembered that the good-looking man in the blue shirt raised his right palm again, his five fingers into claws, and followed, and the blood mist that was spraying wildly suddenly flew back, and the torn clothes were restored in an instant, and even those bone explosions resounded at a strange frequency.

It was all like a dream, and it was a strange dream of going back in time, when Niel rubbed her eyes, only to see the silver-haired man standing in front of her in good shape, looking at herself with a distant gaze, just like the moment before he burst into blood and fell to the ground.

Have you turned back the clock?

It's just a multi-play once. However, the ending of this stage was different, because before the sound of bone explosion sounded again, a pair of palms had already pressed on the top of his head and the back of his heart, with the softest sword qi in the world, helping him dissipate the backlash of the powerful Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi in his body.

Nile watched this scene in a daze, only feeling that all the strange things she had seen in her past life were not as many as they are today.

After about half an hour, the blue-shirted man let out a long breath, and as soon as he let go of his hand, the man who was still unconscious lay down, but from the sound of snoring, it sounded like he was asleep more than he was unconscious, and there was obviously nothing wrong with it.

Niel watched dumbfounded. Except for the Aether Immortal Body and the innate holy power of the Reyns Royal Family, she didn't know any way to make such a serious injury heal instantly, but the situation in front of her didn't seem to be right to say that it was an instant healing, this should be said to be ......

"Hey, Mr. Li's good-looking brother. ”

Not knowing what to call it, Niel could only use this strange name, and watched him turn around and smile slightly, with a relaxed attitude, as if what had just happened had never happened.

"Why did your junior brother's face become like this? Who hurt him?" was full of doubts, so he had to ask one by one.

"When we came by boat, he met old acquaintances, and the two sides seemed to be very red-eyed, and they started a fight, and after a fight, it became this virtue. ”

"Who is the other party? can beat him into such an embarrassment, his martial arts must be very strong, right?"

"It's a short, swarthy man. Martial arts...... It's full of characteristics, but when I left, I didn't look better than my junior brother. ”

Seeing through Nier's doubts, the blue-shirted man smiled and said: "When he fought with that black dwarf, he didn't work so hard, risking his life to gamble on this power that could be used, but could not be fully controlled, otherwise, the other party would have ended up in pieces, and he himself would not have only had a swollen face." ”

Niel couldn't remember any of the tall hands she knew was a swarthy short man, but it didn't matter at all compared to the oddities she had seen today.

"That'...... What did you just do...... Be...... It's ......"

"That's? It's called tick-tock. ”

"Tick-tock?" Nell froze, unable to make out the mystery of the strange name technique.

"It's just enough to reverse the time within four ticks after counting. The blue-shirted man smiled: "Originally, I could only tick the drop, and I did special research before going to sea this time, and it finally became a tick-tock, but then the research didn't progress for a long time, probably because I encountered the limit, and I couldn't turn it into a tick-tock, it's a pity, haha......"

"But as long as you are willing, senior brother, there is no need to be so polite within a radius of two hundred miles. ”

Coming to his senses, the silver-haired man's face seemed uneasy. The feeling of owing people family favors, no matter how many times they go through, they are still uncomfortable, especially when they know how much this senior brother doesn't like to use this technique.

"I'm sorry, senior brother, I still can't keep the agreement. After fighting that stinky bat, I knew I was still lacking, and if I continued like this, I was not sure about the duel in three months, so I wanted to take the risk and try it......"

"That's why I can't understand it. With your current strength and advancement, even if you don't make progress within three months, you have a seventy percent chance of winning, and there is no need to make such a breakthrough. Now that you are seriously injured, you can't use force for a month, and if you can't recover in time, your chances of winning are only five percent. ”

"However, I don't want to win just by tactics. This is a battle with special significance, and if you can't win with a real sword, there is no point in a duel. ”

β€œ...... Alas, when you asked me to arrange this duel for you, I didn't use meaning as a justification. ”

The man in the blue shirt said with an almost sigh, and to Nier's amusement, he really looked a little similar to Gengoro at this time.

"That's fine. Since you have been able to initially control the real sword, junior brother, you have undoubtedly made a breakthrough, and if you hadn't been injured first, you deliberately kept your hand when you took out the sword, didn't use the force when you should have been strong, and joked about your life twice in a row, then you wouldn't have been injured so badly......"

Li Yu shrugged his shoulders slightly, but did not speak. His own actions can be hidden from others, but he can't hide from him, and if it weren't for that superfluous action, the power to backfire his body was too great, then he wouldn't have to work until his senior brother took action today.

"I'm really sorry, brother, I know you don't like to use this trick. ”

"I don't dislike using it, all the techniques are created to be used. I just hate to change the law of cause and effect...... However, I will never change two different endings in a row for the same person, so you have to be careful in the future. ”

"You're really instigating, don't you think it's embarrassing for a big man to believe in fate so much?"

"I don't think there's any need to justify a layman who can't tell the difference between the law of cause and effect and the number of propositions. ”

"When it's time to argue, let's defend it, it's because you don't say anything that you get your wife to run away. ”

"If it weren't for the fact that I was going to follow someone, I would be in the Silk Country by now. ”

"Ha, you finally admit it, right? I told you not to follow me, I can handle this matter by myself, you should go to a place where someone is waiting for you." ”

While laughing, Li Yu was very happy in his heart. This cheap senior brother who did not study the same class as himself has to treat himself more morally than the senior brothers in his past mentorship, and he owes a debt of affection, and he doesn't know how to repay it.

The biggest gain of overseas trips is not so much the growth in martial arts, but also the acquaintance of these people who always warm their entire hearts.

"Don't be too careless, Teacher Hanshan said, I am better than you in the intuition and understanding of the sword, senior brother, when I finish the Tianji Immovable Sword, I will come to your Tianrou to compete to see who can inherit the true meaning of the Immovable True Sword. ”

"Who cares about you, if you can find me then, then there is really a ghost. ”

The conversation between the two made Nier, who was already confused, even more confused, so when people finally found out about her existence and threw out questions, she was still speechless.

"By the way, this young lady, some time ago, we had a merchant ship that was robbed, although it was not our ship, but the robber left a very clear message of challenge, and some of our very short-tempered people wanted to respond immediately, my junior brother and I had to rush ahead of them, and came over to take a look, do you know what it is?"

"Dumped, dumped, dumped......"

Feng'er said goodbye without saying goodbye, and Lancelot's honeymoon life was forced to end in a situation where she was unexpected. He was really stunned for a long time about this, but he came to his senses half an hour later. However, according to Youxue's opinion, this man, who has a richer expression because of his reply to people's faces, looks like he is full of murderous energy.

"Say, what's so good about that little banshee? It's just that she's beautiful and has a high level of martial arts, and it has nothing to do with Feng'er, why did she leave me and go to Kyoto alone?"

Youxue, who was forced to ask so much, deeply experienced the pressure of being a companion like a tiger. In order not to be swallowed by this angry tiger, he had to try his best to explain.

"This ...... To you, boss, she is a little banshee, but in the eyes of Miss Feng'er, this little banshee is like her own child, you didn't hear how affectionate her mother and mother were when the two of them were together, and now that she heard that she had an accident, of course Miss Feng'er had a move. ”

This explanation was not in Lancelot's preconceived answer, but it was reasonable, and he thought about it for a moment, although he was still not happy, but he could already understand it.

"Why is there such a lack of distinction between friend and foe? That little banshee is now our enemy, and she is soft-hearted, which is very dangerous, so if she is encountered on the battlefield, do you still have to ask her if it hurts after a fight?"

Lancelot's question, there is snow that can't answer it. Properly speaking, he couldn't answer an answer that wouldn't irritate Lancelot.

"Boss, you don't have to be so angry. The old one doesn't go, the new one doesn't come, although there is a beautiful girl who runs, but there is one in the room that can't run away, this is a boiled duck automatically sent up, don't be afraid that she will fly to the sky. ”

There is no need to name names, both men know who that beautiful girl is.

"Oh, you saw the wind turn the rudder quickly, weren't you on the same side as her at the beginning, and you had to help her intercede?

Why did you change your face so quickly?"

"It's the survival instinct of the Shet people to change their faces quickly, boss, I think of the tragedy on the dry ear mountain now, and every night I am filled with righteous indignation, and the blood in my chest is boiling, and I think of the dead brothers, and I see that the great enemy is right in front of me, how can I not be generous?

"The word impassioned can't be taken apart. Outraged...... Hmph, is it for fear that I will pursue you to surrender to the enemy and make a confession? I haven't settled the account with you yet, and if you hadn't leaked our defenses, the new team wouldn't have attacked it so quickly. ”

The most feared thing was broken by a word, and Youxue was so frightened that he hurriedly begged for mercy, but was stopped by Lancelot.

"Forget it, I didn't expect much from you. I'm not so naΓ―ve as to think that the Shets can stand the torture, and it's good that you didn't tell all your secrets as soon as you were caught, and begged them to let you go. ”

Lancelot shook his head, skimming over the matter, thinking about his next move.

Honeymoon life is great, but it's impossible to live like this forever. The holidays are coming to an end, and you have to take the next step.

There are a lot of things, but they can be summed up as two things. Taking Japan is the main goal of this trip, and the biggest obstacle has now become clear, that is, Amakusa Shiro and Oda Ka, how to kick these two obstacles, there is no definite plan yet, and we must have a good idea.

Another important thing is the truth about the secret of the heavenly throne. This is related to the major secret of breakthrough cultivation, and it will also have a major impact on the future struggle for hegemony on the mainland, and it is a more important event than taking over Japan. With the clues obtained so far, when you get the three Japanese artifacts, the secret will be solved, so while carrying out the great cause of conquest, you must also try to seize the artifacts.

These are the two main tasks at the moment, however, Lancelot still has some doubts in his mind. Oda Xiang and Amakusa Shiro are undoubtedly their biggest enemies at the moment, but there are other potential enemies in Japan.

Needless to say, the old women were there. Finding them, taking revenge, and torturing them to find out how to get back to their true colors is what they want to do most now. However, if the eight of them will be together, it will be difficult to deal with, because they are in the light and they are in the dark, as long as they are given a chance to make a move, under the power of the Five Extremes Heavenly Style, they are not sure that they will be able to come back from the other world again......

I heard from my second brother-in-law that the reason why the spell rescue was successful, in addition to the fast action of everyone, there was also a big reason, because there was a huge energy turbulence near Kyoto, which violently shook the surrounding space, making the time and space interval extremely unstable, so that everyone was able to break the space limit and save people from the other world.

Such a huge energy turbulence seems to be caused by the fierce battle between two supreme masters, although the second uncle said that he couldn't guess who would do it at that time, but from the snow that night all over Kyoto, in fact, they both had the answer in their hearts.

Qinglian remnant snow, June frost, people who take this as a mark, they only know one, but they can't imagine that he, who should still be traveling overseas, will suddenly return. But it's right to think about it, in a sense, Japan is also overseas.

With him coming back to help, his own momentum has been greatly boosted, but the question is, who will be the master who is hostile to him? There is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in Japan, and he has met a master so far, but he still can't figure out the details of the other party, and it is really embarrassing to think about it.

"Boss, have you decided? If you haven't figured it out, we can stay here for another two or three days. I see that you are enjoying yourself here these days, happier than the gods, if you don't mind, I want to enjoy here for a few days. ”

"Think of a fart. That little banshee is inhumane, Feng'er goes to Kyoto alone, who knows what danger will be encountered? I don't worry, I'll leave for Kyoto early tomorrow morning, and I'll get people back first. If you don't want to go, you can stay here alone and enjoy yourself, but if you meet some ninjas or samurai or something, you can find a way to deal with it yourself, and don't forget that you, Shuntaro Kodaka, are still a wanted criminal. ”

"I'm not so blessed, if you don't stay, Boss, Izumi Sakura will escort me on my way tomorrow.

She had promised that she would rush to Izumo no Kuni so that she wouldn't waste time here. β€œ

"Izumo no Kuni?Who did she promise?Do you have friends in Japan?"

"No, it's not our friend, I'm looking left and right...... It's a lot like the boss of your dead friend, but I don't know why, your dead girlfriend seems to have suddenly come back to life. Not only did I walk on my feet, but there were shadows in the sun, so I couldn't figure out what it was. ”

"What are you talking about? Be clear. ”

With a strange smile on his face, Yuxue told all kinds of things about his encounter that day, many of which Izumi Sakura relayed to him afterwards, but he painted his voice and pictures, but he said it as if he was listening to it the whole time.

"She gave us the gift, and asked Izumi Sakura to rush to the country of Izumo as soon as possible, and get the Tiancong Cloud Sword in her hand, saying that as long as the Excalibur does not fall into the hands of the bad guys, there will be a conspiracy that will not happen, hey, this passage is not clear, according to me, just ignore it, no matter what conspiracy he has, it will not harm us anyway, but Izumi Sakura insisted...... Why don't you talk, boss, do you want to go to the bathroom?"

Lancelot looked at Yuxue in a daze, and from the moment he mentioned the appearance and name of the woman in the sedan chair, his ears seemed to be booming, and his mind was a mess, and he didn't hear what Youxue said.

Could it be a coincidence? I just happened to meet a ...... with a similar appearance.

Using reason as the last line of defense, Lancelot suppressed all kinds of complex emotions in his heart, and everything that had happened in Siam City flickered in front of his eyes.

It just so happens that the probability is not high, because Yuki is someone who has seen Fenghua with his own eyes, and it is unlikely that he will admit his mistake. In addition, even if the appearance is the same, there is no reason to even have the same name, although I don't know why, but it seems that God finally gave him a little favor, so that the lonely soul in Shen Yuan's plum forest rejoined the world.

When he first heard the name of the jade sign and hurried to Altino, he began to suspect that Fenghua might not have disappeared and that he would be able to meet him again one day. Teacher Mei Lin's words gave me confidence in this idea, but I couldn't understand it at that time.

"Legend has it that the sea is in the west, the home of the birth of the sun. ”

Although I still can't figure out what it means to be in the middle of the sea, isn't the hometown where the sun was born in Japan? Could it be that Ms. Mei Lin had already calculated that Fenghua was in Japan at that time?

Listening to Youxue's description, her group was ambushed by the Heavenly Rank Master, if it wasn't for Izumi Sakura's intervention halfway, the whole army would have been wiped out, if the enemy came again, how could they resist without the ability to resist? If the enemy succeeded, what would it ......

The more he thought about it, the more anxious he became, Lancelot took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and clenched his fists tightly, it took a lot of effort to suppress this heart-burning eagerness, analyze the matter rationally, and not rush out the door immediately like a headless fly.

Even if he is anxious, he doesn't know where Fenghua is going at the moment, and he looks for it aimlessly, believing that the effect is not great.

The conspiracy of the Izumo country, I don't know what the situation is, but according to Kazeka's temperament, since she values this matter so much, she must have gone in person, in other words, it is very likely that she will meet her in the Izumo country.

Originally, he planned to seize the Sword of the Heavenly Clouds and gather the three major artifacts in Japan, but now there is an urgent reason to get the Divine Sword in his hands immediately.

"Boss ......"

"That little banshee and Feng'er get along well, they won't be poisoned suddenly, after Feng'er knows her true face, she will be wary, with her martial arts, it shouldn't be a problem to escape safely. ”

Speaking slowly, Lancelot's voice returned to a steady voice, listening to Youxue's ears, with a more majestic feeling, from a jealous husband who was forced to end his honeymoon life, to return to his proper posture as a leader.

"Early tomorrow morning, set off to the country of Izumo and seize the Heavenly Cloud Sword. ”

In a hurry, Kaede rushed back to Kyoto in the shortest possible time. Flying at full speed in the air with the power of the heavenly position, it doesn't take much time to hurry, and I didn't dare to rush in this way before, because once the power of the heavenly position is transported, it will not be able to conceal the breath, and it will definitely be noticed, and the tail will catch up, and it will inevitably be a heavenly battle.

But now there is no such concern. Originally, I rushed back to Kyoto this time to visit Sojiro, so naturally there was no reason to avoid him. Thinking of little Sojiro...... Alas, or should I say Princess Xiang?

Until now, Feng'er still has no way to associate these two people together. To be honest, judging from their appearances alone, they still look alike, but due to their different emotional reactions and facial expressions, no one associates them together, at most they just want to be brothers and sisters or sisters.

The lively and lovely Sojiro Ko, and the Oda Ka, who can only be described as "nothingness", could the two be the same person? If it wasn't for Lancelot-sama witnessing it, he wouldn't have believed it. And although he has no feelings for Oda Ka, he ...... for Sojiro But he really treated him as a relative, and when he heard that something might be wrong with him, he didn't have time to think about anything, so he hurried to Kyoto.

Lord Lancelot would probably be furious, but there was nothing he could do, because if he wanted to resign to him, he would be locked up in the acupoints and tied up as a banshee like he had done last time in the Ivory White Tower, and he would not let him go.

There are things that are incomprehensible to people who have never been parents. It may seem strange to say this, but during the time I spent with Sojiro, I did feel like a mother. How can a mother in the world hear that her child is sick and ignore it?

And the other thing that worries me is that Lord Lancelot and Miss Izumi Sakura, the two of them who get together again, also need to spend some time together, right? With me over there, this atmosphere will only be extremely weird, and besides, because of my own existence, Lord Lancelot will definitely not have a good face for Miss Izumi Sakura, which is not what I want.

After all, the two of them once had a relationship, hurting each other like before, and I really felt very uneasy in my eyes, if I could give them a chance to rebuild the old relationship, I believe Miss Xiaocao would also be very pleased.

It didn't take long for me to get back to Kyoto. He was already familiar with Kyoto City, so he easily sneaked in without alarming any miscellaneous people.

A small Japan, there are actually two masters, Amakusa Shiro and Oda Xiang, which can be said to be unique, however, this is also the current limit of this island country. Leaving the two of them aside, there are simply no noteworthy masters in Japan as a whole. The cultivation of talents has a lot to do with the whole environment, unless something changes occur, or they meet wishful thinking patriots, no one will believe that a small island country has more masters than the entire continent.

Where is Sojiro's location? This Kaede is not sure, even if he searches with his Heavenly Heart Consciousness, there is still no answer. That child's Tianxin cultivation was already stronger than himself, if he deliberately wanted to hide, he really couldn't find him.

(Where will it be...... οΌ‰

After thinking about it, Kaede decided to go to Oda Xiang's small stone house to have a look. The chances of finding someone over there are always higher than elsewhere. And this idea was correct, because when Feng'er floated outside the house and saw the lights shining in the small stone house, she knew that she was not in the wrong place.

Just about to walk over boldly, Feng'er suddenly felt a chill. The owner of the house had come out, and was right behind him, and he would only be discovered by himself because "she" wanted to let herself know that she had appeared.

"Sojiro ......"

Feng'er turned her head away, not worrying about being plotted out at all. Compared to the kung fu of hiding and hiding, she thinks that she is better than Oda Ka, but against her extreme speed, she has lost the opportunity to make a move before she finds out that she is coming, so if she has a plot, she can't be guarded against at all.

The figure standing behind him was not Sojiro, but Oda Ka with an expressionless face. Standing coldly behind her, her face frighteningly pale in the dawn sky.

When it comes to Oda Ka's condition, Izumi Sakura is vague and does not make it clear whether Oda is sick or injured, in fact, Izumi Sakura, who only overheard a fragment of the conversation from Amakusa Shiro's mouth, cannot clearly explain it herself.

Oda Ka did not wear the gorgeous kimono she usually wears, but simply draped in a thin white robe, which looked like there were no external injuries on her body, just that bloodless face, which made people feel very wrong.

Feng'er didn't know what to call for a while, because the name Sojiro didn't belong to the girl in front of her who didn't have much affection for herself, but calling her Princess Xiang felt too rusty, so she didn't have time to think about it at the moment, and approached the past and wanted to touch her face.

"Traitor!"

Oda Ka made a move. Before Feng'er could reach out, she disappeared. Knowing that this was a precursor to the opponent's attack, Feng'er was already on guard when she got close to the past, opened her lightsaber, and with a swing, she happened to block an attack on the lower abdomen.

The strength is not heavy, which seems to mean that the other party does not want to be a killer, and as long as she doesn't go that far, Feng'er feels that she has something to say between herself and her.

"Sojiro, listen to me, I'm here to ...... this time"

Kaede soon realized that she was too naΓ―ve, and although the blow to the lower abdomen was not heavy, after her horizontal sword was taken, Oda Xiang immediately used her strength to bounce away and flew backwards at more than double the speed before.

(Is this also a change in Jiuyao's extreme speed?, at the moment when the enemy counterattacks, she will retreat with strength, so what is her next move...... οΌ‰

The answer emerged a step too late, and when Feng'er thought that the other party could use the force to eject again and double the speed, a strong force had already collided, blasting the lightsaber in her hand to pieces, and knocking people away.

In mid-air, a strong feeling of dizziness invaded the brain, similar to the magic of that day's mental attack, grabbed his senses, and slowly passed out.

When he opened his eyes again, he was already in a dungeon, with a pile of iron on his hands and feet, no matter how he looked at it, he looked like a prisoner.

Concentrate on the luck, the true qi can't be raised, and the heavenly power can't be operated. His martial arts are undoubtedly blocked, and the method used by the other party, in addition to including the sealing points that Lord Lancelot is used to, is also combined with a certain drug that he can't identify, and it seems that it is impossible to use his own strength to drive away poison and restore his skills.

However, as long as his life is still there, it proves that the child has no intention of killing him, and there is room for explanation, and he came this time, in addition to seeing if she is okay, but also hoping to make her understand that there are some things in this world that cannot help but be self-decided, and although they do not want to hurt her, they are still inevitably hostile.

The kid had just called himself a "traitor," so it must have made her very sad to help Master Lancelot and do something with her, right?

Alas...... If you can't do anything, how can you continue to hurt while asking for the other person's forgiveness, how can you do such shameless behavior?

After thinking about it, there was no answer, and what I was most looking forward to was that the child could come here and meet him.

I don't know how long I waited, but the wooden door that didn't look very strong was pushed open, and someone slowly walked down the stairs, the footsteps were unusually heavy, and it didn't sound like Oda Ka, could it be a jailer?

Looking up, this jailer is really depraved to the extreme...... To put it more correctly, how did the dignified shogunate master Fan become a jailer?

Amakusa Shiro's face is ugly, although he is not as pale as Oda Xiang, but there are a lot of small blood marks and bruises on his face, as if he was beaten somewhere, and his movements are not very dexterous, Kaede couldn't think for a while, who could hurt him so much?

"Heh, you're really special. A girl's family is trapped in a prison, and she has no fear, it's not simple. ”

Since it is a dungeon, in addition to being gloomy and damp, of course, it is not much clean, insects and mice are inevitable, and there are no bloody corpses and other things, which can be said to be a great luck in misfortune, but looking at Feng'er's expression, she doesn't feel that there is any difference between these.

"I've been in prison before, and this kind of environment doesn't make me uncomfortable. ”

Having said that, it was enough, Feng'er didn't want to dig out his old past when he was fine, and Amakusa Shiro only thought that this was the special training of the people of the Great Snow Mountain Gate, and he didn't care.

"Is Xinan's special training? Hey, that's weird...... Amakusa Shiro took out a porcelain vase and said, "You're not hurt, are you?" if you're okay, take this antidote, and then you're good to go." ”

"You're here to let me go?"

"Otherwise, what am I doing here? Do I look good now? In the entire Kyoto City, except for my little apprentice, the only people who can release you are me and Hideyoshi, after you take the antidote, leave here immediately, and don't participate in the war between Reines and Japan again, otherwise, we will not release prisoners every time, and you will not have a chance to become a prisoner every time." ”

The words faintly revealed the message that they would not show mercy to their subordinates when they met next time, and Feng'er was surprised, she didn't expect to be released like this, however, if she left like this, there would be no point in rushing back to Kyoto.

"Zong...... How is Princess Xiang?"

"It's good, it's not good. I don't know what she's thinking in her head, indiscriminately transfusing blood, making a mess of her body......"

Kaede was puzzled, and Amakusa Shiro could only explain. Oda Kao's physique is peculiar, when she infuses her own blood into others' bodies, it will cause the blood recipient to quickly produce a physical demonization effect, faster than any demon plant. However, due to the powerful demonic energy in the blood, once too much blood is lost, it will be quite difficult to replenish it, and an extremely weak fatigue will appear.

"I don't know what she did, and I don't know who she gave her blood to, in short, this girl is lawless, and many times I can't figure out what she's doing, knowing that I can't replenish my blood, and it's like a big auction to scatter blood everywhere. ”

"Is it serious?

"There's no need to be so nervous, you can't die if you don't die, if you don't have the blood of the demons, you can rest for three or five months, and you will always recover. ”

Amakusa Shiro said: "So you don't have to worry too much, that little girl can't die, it's much more dangerous than yourself, if you don't leave here as soon as possible, if the little girl decides to kill you, I can't guard you every day." ”

Knowing Oda Xiang's current situation, Kaede's mood is not necessarily good, but she also knows that it is unlikely that she wants to see Oda Xiang, and the only one who can help her is Amakusa Shiro in front of her.

"I hope to see Princess Xiang again and explain some things to her. I won't leave until I've said this, and I don't believe she's going to kill me, so please arrange for me to see her again. ”

"You're really not afraid of death, the little girl has now identified you as a traitor, don't you know?"

"I know...... However, I don't want her to be sad, so I must meet her and apologize to her. ”

Looking at Feng'er's serious expression, Amakusa Shiro suddenly laughed loudly, as if he had heard something extremely funny, but there was a little regret on his expression.

"What's so funny?" Kaede felt a little uneasy in her heart, and knew that Amakusa Shiro wouldn't laugh wildly for no reason, but she couldn't think of anything that deserved his reaction.

"Girl, you have a good conscience, but do you remember that I advised you not to think too much about my little apprentice. I'm going to say the same thing again today. ”

Amakusa Shiro said: "Put your feelings on your master, or on your comrades-in-arms and compatriots, just don't waste it on my little apprentice, there will be no response." ”

"Isn't it too much to say that?"

"Do you think I'm talking nonsense to you? Oda Kata is not an ordinary child, not even an ordinary demon, she is a ...... A beautiful doll without heart and emotion. ”

Amakusa Shiro said: "Girl, you like that kid very much, right? However, the Sojiro you like doesn't actually exist, that boy who loves to laugh, move, and likable is just a fake humanity in disguise." The real her should be closer to the Oda incense you see. ”

These words are...... What do you mean?"

Hearing these suddenly, Feng'er's mind was in a mess, and she didn't seem to understand. What does Sojiro never exist?

What does it mean to have no heart? What the hell is going on? It's impossible for Shiro Amakusa to lie or joke about himself, but what he says is really incomprehensible to himself.

"No wonder you don't understand, this matter is a secret between me and Hideyoshi, and it starts from the day he brought this child to me......"

More than ten years ago, Amakusa Shiro lived in seclusion in the mountains, although the shoguns of the past dynasties worshipped him as a god and respected him as the shogunate master, but Amakusa Shiro did not ask about mundane affairs, and rarely interfered in the change of power in Japan, especially after knowing the identity of the shogunate general Oda Nobunaga at that time, he ignored it and did not interact.

In the Honnoji Change, Oda Nobunaga and the Star Sage Kadar died together, and Japan fell into chaos, and finally it was unified by Toyotomi Hideyoshi. Amakusa Shiro saw all these changes, but did not interfere, but after Hideyoshi unified the whole of Japan, he went to the mountains in person, met with the master, and brought a girl.

This girl is frighteningly high in her learning ability, what kind of complex martial arts, she can learn it as soon as she learns, almost just by looking at it once, she can analyze the truth and know-how, and immediately master it. The talent is so high that even Shiro Amakusa is staggered.

But beyond that, everything about the girl was a blank......

She can't cry or laugh, although she has a very beautiful human appearance, but she has all the emotions that humans are born with, she has no emotion, she can't react to external things, she just looks at everything around her coldly with almost nihilistic eyes, and imitates it in an incoherent manner.

In line with his promise to Kadar, Hideyoshi hoped to raise the child, but because of her abnormality, there was no way to do it, so he had no choice but to turn to Amakusa Shiro for help, hoping that this god-man, who had an accurate understanding of the knowledge of the heavenly position, could solve this problem.

Hideyoshi told Amakusa Shiro about the child's origins, as well as the process of Kadar's deathbed orphan, although he himself did not know the whole picture, but after Amakusa Shiro repeatedly scrutinized, and then read the information from the Qinglou Alliance, he finally understood the ins and outs of the whole thing.

How Nobunaga cultivated the demon seed through the mother's womb, how the demon seed was born, and how Kadar helped him open his consciousness were all well known to Amakusa Shiro, but he still couldn't find a way to deal with it.

During the Kyushu War, Amakusa Shiro worked in the Demon Clan and had a full understanding of the Demon Ecology, but he was helpless for a while against alien species like Oda Xiang. To be precise, this child is not even a living being, just a high-density energy body, formed by human and demon flesh and blood, without a mind or thinking, just a humanoid body of flesh.

If this thing is absorbed by the demons with the Heavenly Demon Skill at one time, it will naturally be a holy product that boosts the skill, but Kadar uses his unique secret technique to force her to open her mind and turn her into a living entity that thinks with the consciousness of the Heavenly Heart. However, although she has the ability to think, she does not have the emotions that a creature should have, and she cannot learn things through the growth path of ordinary people.

Maybe he didn't want the death of his old friend to be in vain, or maybe he was a little incense for the demons, the lonely Amakusa Shiro took over the upbringing work and began to try to "train the material" of this unprecedented alien species.

"I couldn't think of any good way to do it, so I ended up using a stupid way to type in slowly one by one......"

Not knowing how to follow the path, Amakusa Shiro had no choice but to use the method of forcible indoctrination to teach Oda Kata the emotional reactions of humans.

What kind of words should you laugh at, what kind of things you should be sad when you see them, and what kind of situations you should be angry about...... These ordinary people couldn't react naturally, and Amakusa Shiro used dogmatic orders to enter them one by one.

Oda Ka herself has the ability to think, so she can understand what Amakusa Shiro means and follow it. As she commanded more and more, she showed more and more emotional reactions, and by the end of the day, she was already an emotional child.

It's just that Amakusa Shiro knows very well in his heart that these are all illusions, and this kid is just following the commands he inputs and adopting a corresponding mode for the situation he is in.

Beneath that grinning and lovely face, there is still a completely empty mind that doesn't know what "emotion" is......

Amakusa Shiro said: "Hideyoshi didn't know the situation, but he was very satisfied when he saw that the child could cry and laugh." In fact, it is not only the emotional problem, but the appearance of this child is also an illusion. With his life form, he can change the appearance of the body at will, men and women, young and old, he can change if he wants, and the reason why he moves like a little boy is only because I told her that it is easier to please girls. ”

Recalling Lancelot's description of his fight with Odaka, Kaede understood what Amakusa Shiro meant. Odaka's body is completely manipulated by the heart, as long as she has that meaning, she can make her body without half a bone, and she can also make all the muscles elastic like rubber, and it is of course a big advantage to use such a body to move with people. In contrast, changing the gender and age of the flesh is a trivial matter.

On the surface, this child seems to be very emotional, but in fact, she doesn't know what feelings are. When she judges that you are an enemy, she will not show mercy at all, and if you have extravagant hopes for her, you will not know how you will die in the end. ”

Amakusa Shiro sighed: "So I want you girl to understand first, don't chase an illusion, don't put your emotions in places that are not worth putting in." Are you worried that she will be sad? Ridiculous, how can a thing without a heart be hurt? It will be hurt by someone who cares about her. ”

After being silent for a while, Feng'er's heart moved, and she said, "The person you are talking about, do you mean yourself?"

Amakusa Shiro didn't answer, and Kaede didn't ask any more, and the two fell into a very awkward look. However, they didn't know that there was another pair of eyes, peeking through the water mirror.
