In front of the main hall of the summit mansion,

The two figures faced each other.

The surroundings are densely packed with masked ninjas dressed in purple, each with a knife in his hand, and his output is all on his legs.

They are none other than the ninja organization 'The Lone Shadows'.

It's the organization that was used by Han Baiyi to perform the ninja egg blasting technique three years later.

Standing in the center of the crowd, the extremely tall old man was their leader, the owl.

As a ninja, the size of the owl is obviously unqualified.

The size of the owl is huge, two meters up, and the body is wide and strong, the muscles are propped up to hold up the clothes, a pale hair is tied into a twist and falls behind him, it looks as heavy as a pillar, the palm of the hand is as wide as a fan, and even the knife on his shoulder is more than one meter six, which is enough to be the width of a palm, and a knife is enough to imagine what a tragic situation his enemy is about to face.

However, he is such a majestic man, but his heart is extremely cunning and decent, and his methods are despicable and obscene, and he does everything he can.

This time the disaster of the Hirata family was directed by him.

This is his vote to the inner house.

That's right, as one of the reeds, one of the most powerful subordinates of the Sword Saint, and the 'owl' with the name of 'Kui Ren', has rebelled.

Not because of resentment, nor because of the entanglement of interests, but just for the sake of power, for status, and in order to satisfy the owl's almost endless thirst for fame, he sold the entire reed name to the inner house.

In order to make himself the master of this land.

Let the name of Bojing right and left, instead of the code name of 'Xiao', resound throughout the land of reeds.

What the world wants is nothing more than fame and fortune.

Even if you are as powerful as a wolf, you can't escape this strange circle.

But he is also deeply aware of the lack of his own strength, knowing that he is nearing the end of his age, and knowing that his physical strength is not as good as a year.

In order to make up for the lack of strength and longevity, he needs Long Yin.

He needs the power of immortality.

This is also one of the reasons why the owl set off this disaster.

The dragon yin royal son of this generation is the adopted son of the Hirata family.

The owl knew that the inner government was also pursuing the power of immortality, and they must have a reason to pay such a price for attacking a city built on a mountain for no reason, and 'immortality' is a good reason.

Even if the power is overwhelming, as long as the life expectancy is approaching, how can anyone not be afraid of death? Not afraid of losing?

He thinks that the inner government has the same idea as himself.

But fortunately, as a reed name, I can always be one step ahead of them.

For example, this time, although the owl told the inner government about his attack on the Hirata family through the flying owl book, he did not tell them the identity of the imperial son.

One step at a time, one step at a time.

As long as he can successfully get Long Yin this time, he will be the co-master of the future reed name and even the land of Yingzhou!

This is the ambition of the owl.

For this, he did not hesitate to betray his comrades.

However, he was now stopped by a familiar figure.

"Thin ......"

"Do you really want to do things to the last minute?"

In front of him, a woman as old as him stood in front of the main hall and single-handedly stopped all the intruders.

The old man slowly raised his head and straightened his hunched back.

Gaze straight at the owl.

This old man is the butterfly who became famous on the battlefield of piracy with illusion twenty years ago, and the butterfly lady who is known as the phantom butterfly by the world with the magic of illusion is the best in the world.

However, the years are urging people to get old, and Madame Butterfly twenty years ago is now old, only a pair of eyes are still shining, and you can vaguely see the beauty of the year from the old man's eyebrows.

"Butterfly, why are you so stubborn?"

The tone of the owl was calm, and although his voice was a little dull, it was not boring to listen to.

"Even if you have the power of the dragon, but we have hundreds of people, even if we can't kill you, as long as we catch the royal son here, we can force you to commit suicide no matter what."

"You might as well be caught now, for the sake of many years of comrades-in-arms, I can let you go."

The old Madame Butterfly had a blank face,

"Although I saw that you had ambitions back then, I didn't expect you to hit Long Yin with the idea."

"Immortal? What about not dying? ”

"With me here, do you think you can get the power of Long Yin?"

Xiao still looked peaceful, and persuaded in a slow tone:

"You know better than anyone that Reed Ming can't hold on anymore, and joining the Inner Mansion is the right way, in that case, why do you bother to be buried here."

"Besides, if I want to get the power of Long Yin, it has nothing to do with you, it's just another immortal in the world...... Why do you have to endure the pain of dozens of deaths to stop us? Does that make sense? ”

Hearing Xiaoxiao's question, Madame Butterfly suddenly smiled.

"Meaning?"

"Do you think that the power of Long Yin is unlimited?"

Xiao's face suddenly sank, as if he had thought of something, and his eyes were fixed on the old friend in front of him.

"What do you mean?"

Madame Butterfly held out a finger and smiled:

"There can only be one person who makes a contract with the son of Long Yin."

"And now, I'm the Contractor."

"At the same time, I'm immortal. Even if I kill me dozens or hundreds of times, I will only feel the pain, and then I will be reborn in the pain and kill you completely. ”

"Even ...... The dragon's cough alone is enough to make you die clean. ”

"As a comrade-in-arms, you should know that I am different from those who are not dead. No matter how many times you kill me, I won't die. ”

Madame Butterfly's smile became brighter and brighter, but the look in her eyes was extremely hideous.

"Owl, do you want to die?"

The majestic man was silent, staring at his old friend in front of him.

The corners of his mouth suddenly opened into a hideous grin.

"If it doesn't work once, I'll kill you ten times."

"If you can't do it ten times, I'll kill you a hundred times."

"I don't believe it, Long Yin is eternal immortal and immortal."

"Have you forgotten what happened to the ape?"

Looking around at the nearly 100 lonely shadows around them, the Taidaozu drew their knives one after another, and the tip of the knife pointed directly at Madame Butterfly, who was standing in front of the door of the main hall.

There was almost dark malice in the owl's expression.

With a wave of his big hand, his arms are in a hugging shape.

"Precept three, absolutely obey the master's orders."

The lone shadows didn't know what was affected, and their eyes suddenly turned red.

The indifferent voice of the owl sounded in his ears,

"Go ahead, kill her."

......

On the mountain road,

Inosuke carried Miko on his back and galloped quickly on the mountain road, followed by Mrs. Wanko, who was nimble in her legs.

The three of them ran quickly through the layers of bamboo forests, and encountered several waves of bandits who came to search in the middle, but they were all easily dealt with by Inosuke.

Even if it's just a guard of the inner house, Inosuke's strength is worthy of recognition.

Mrs. Wanzi is also not weak, and as a witch, she can do some divine blessing techniques - being able to be the young master of the imperial prince naturally has some skills.

Along the way, several people can be regarded as frightening.

Miko lay on Inosuke's back as if numb, and didn't say a word during the whole process.

Disasters are undoubtedly a physical and mental test for a person.

If you can survive the wind and waves, it is King Kong Baoyu.

If you can't survive it, it's naturally rotten stone and rotten wood.

Three years later, Miko is so strong for not without reason.

It's just that even if it's Long Yin, it can't make people grow up overnight.

Suddenly, Inosuke stopped at a corner from the mansion on the top of the mountain, and paced into the bamboo forest with a wary face, hiding his body with his mother, Mrs. Wanko, and listening to the movement above with his ears on the ground.

"Inosuke! What's wrong? ”

Mrs. Wanzi asked anxiously, looking behind her from time to time, for fear of being caught up by the pursuers.

There are also strong men among the bandits, and if someone is stronger than them, and they can't escape, they will be buried here.

Even if their cheap lives are not worth mentioning, they can't leave the young master in this kind of place.

"On the top of the mountain, there was a shout of killing...... You can't go over this way. ”

Inosuke raised his head from the ground and said to the two behind him.

Then he took Miko and his mother and walked through the bamboo forest together, and went directly from the back mountain to the back of the mansion.

After just a few steps, Inosuke stopped again, staring at the top of the mountain, cold sweat about to fall from his neck, and his body stood in place and could barely move.

Shouting for killing, stopped.

Which side won?

Bandits? Guard?

It was so fierce just now, how could it stop so fast?

Is the Juggernaut Isshin here? Or is it a master on the bandit's side?

What's going on?

All kinds of questions popped up in his mind, and they were fleeting, and the great fear seemed to grab his heart, and his body didn't dare to move.

But before Inosuke could figure it out, a figure appeared in front of him very suddenly.

"Who?!"

Inosuke was so frightened that he drew his knife and swung it away, but was pinched by two fingers stretched out by the old hand.

"Ahem......"

The old man seemed to cough from his heart and lungs, his hair had turned as white as snow, his skin had dried up, and the whole person seemed to be dead.

Faintly, you can even see the purple-black death breath from her.

Yuzi's eyes lit up, and he suddenly ran over, and said in an uplifting tone:

"Butterflies! Have you come to save me? ”

Madame Butterfly nodded kindly:

"Yes, Lady Kuro."

Then he exhaled heavily to Inosuke beside him:

"You have a meritorious service for escorting the master, and you have a lot of credit."
