Tokyo Sword Saint Online Dealing

After listening to reports from several agents outside, and knowing that they were handling the follow-up matters in an orderly manner with the assistance of Ito Daizo, Uesugi Kiyoshi had nothing to worry about.

Senior Brother Ito was more reliable than he thought.

After receiving a call from Ueno Mitsuishi and hearing the words, "Ms. Shiina has changed her mind and is willing to come to Tokyo with us," he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Regardless, tonight's operation can be considered a success.

Although we couldn't save everyone, we did our best.

Moreover, he reaped considerable rewards. Not to mention the two swords, the duel with Miyagawa Isamu was also very beneficial to Uesugi Kiyoshi.

Uesugi Kiyoshi, who had limited knowledge of the Tennen Rishin-ryu school, gained a deeper understanding of swordsmanship after sparring with a leading swordsman, even though it was only for a few rounds.

Not to mention the "ultimate meaning" of the Natural Flow of Mind, which he experienced up close.

Uesugi Kiyoshi was a kendo genius, that much is undeniable.

Given some time, it wouldn't be difficult for him to fully comprehend the entire Natural Principles of Mind.

But now is not the time to think about these things.

Uesugi Kiyoshi was more worried about Kyoko, who hadn't woken up yet.

Her face was pale, but her breathing was steady, and she didn't seem to be in any danger, but she just didn't wake up.

After getting into the association's car, Uesugi Seifu rushed back to the hotel where he was staying, personally settled Kyoko in, and called the accompanying doctor to treat her.

The result was "excessive fatigue, exhaustion, just need to rest for a while and you'll be fine."

The doctor's words could not be ignored. Finally, when the clock struck twelve, Uesugi Kiyoshi finished all the chores and sat down by Kyoko's bedside.

They were staying in the same suite, just not in the same room.

Now, Uesugi Kiyoshi doesn't trust anyone else to take care of Kyoko; he can't just leave her alone.

Pulling over a chair and sitting down, Uesugi Kiyoshi let out a long sigh of relief.

He was quite tired today. Putting aside the fighting, the burning anger in his heart was enough to make him suffer.

He couldn't bear to see such casualties. Ueno Mitsuishi was right; deep down, he was a good person.

Having experienced poverty since childhood, he understands the hardships of life for all living beings. He simply cannot accept that someone who lives such a difficult life would have their life taken away without his consent.

Stretching out in the soft light, he looked at Xingzi's sleeping, chubby little face and smiled contentedly.

He vaguely recalled many things from his time as the Lord of a Hundred Demons, Gen Kiyomasa.

The current Kyoko, and the Kyoko of that time, were indeed his personal maids who had accompanied him since childhood, but he was only focused on practicing his swordsmanship and couldn't even remember Kyoko's name.

It was only after he was exiled to Musashi Province that he truly became acquainted with Anzu.

She is a gentle woman who can take impeccable care of him and stay by his side from beginning to end.

When Minamoto no Kiyomasa went to his death in Heian-kyo, Anzu, who was far away in Edo, sensed it. Her demonic power reversed, and she severed her own heart meridian, following him in death. They truly achieved being together in life and death.

In this world, it is always easy to share wealth and honor, but rare to share hardship and adversity.

As Uesugi Kiyoshi was lost in thought, piecing together fragments of memories, Anzu's eyelashes trembled slightly on the bed, a sign that she was about to wake up.

Uesugi Kiyoshi perked up, but before he could do anything, he saw Kyoko slowly open her eyes, her bright, watery eyes filled with confusion.

This confusion vanished upon seeing Uesugi Kiyoshi, replaced by a delighted smile.

"Uesugi-kun, I...I rescued that lady."

This was the first thing Xingzi said when she woke up.

"I can feel that Uesugi-kun is very angry and sad. I don't want to see Uesugi-kun like this, so I'll try to save that lady—she must be someone very important to Uesugi-kun!"

Xingzi lay on her side, clenching her small fists. Her voice was weak, but her expression looked very happy.

Uesugi Kiyoshi was speechless.

So, in order to improve her mood, would she go to great lengths to save a woman who might be her love rival?

Or is it that this little fool didn't even think about it?

Uesugi Kiyoshi felt that the latter possibility was more likely.

In this little white rabbit's eyes, there may be no room for anyone or anything else but itself.

He ruffled Xingzi's hair haphazardly and smiled gently.

"Yes, I saw it. Kyoko was a great help."

"Thank you, Anzu."

With just a simple thank you, Xingzi's eyes narrowed into crescent moons with happiness, and even the paleness on her face faded considerably.

She was about to say something when she suddenly wrinkled her nose, her little face contorting into a bitter expression.

She didn't smell good; there was a lot of blood and dust on her, and her newly bought dress was now filthy. Uesugi Kiyoshi didn't have time to change her.

She struggled to her feet and stammered, "Uesugi-kun, I...I'm going to take a shower."

After saying that, he staggered towards the bathroom in the room.

Uesugi Kiyoshi was a little worried and couldn't go over to help her take a bath, so he could only shake his head, laugh and cry at the same time, and lean against the headboard, squinting his eyes.

He was also a little sleepy.

Before long, drowsiness overwhelmed him, and he drifted into a light sleep.

Not long after, he felt someone struggling to "move" him to the bed. Because the familiar scent was Xingzi's, he felt at ease and had no desire to open his eyes.

It wasn't until a few seconds later, when a warm body snuggled into his arms, that he realized things might be developing in a direction he hadn't anticipated.

Chapter 351 Baby

Late at night.

However, due to light pollution in big cities, Kyoto's night scene isn't particularly deep.

Uesugi Kiyoshi was only lightly asleep; in this state, he could suddenly strike and draw his sword without even needing a second to adjust.

Therefore, he was naturally aware of everything that happened in the outside world.

Xingzi had just finished showering, and the sweet scent of her shower gel mixed with her own unique herbal fragrance, wafting into his nose and making his mind momentarily hazy.

Then, a pair of small hands wrapped around his chest, and her warm little head rested against his chest. He could even hear Kyoko let out a satisfied moan, and her whole body relaxed.

Uesugi Kiyoshi, with a mischievous glint in his eye, suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze meeting that of Kyoko, who was staring intently at his profile.

The startled little rabbit stared blankly for three seconds, then let out a soft gasp, its cheeks instantly turning bright red.

Her gaze wandered aimlessly, unsure of where to look. Her hands waved unconsciously, and though she tried to explain, she stammered and couldn't utter a word.

"I...I...I saw that Uesugi-kun was tired, so..."

"I'm not! I'm not!"

Uesugi Kiyoshi found her flustered appearance extremely cute, so he reached out and gently stroked her back, pulling her closer to himself and draping the blanket that had slipped off her back over her.

"I know."

One sentence made Xingzi feel much better.

She stared at the gentle smile on Uesugi Kiyoshi's lips and the slightly doting look in his eyes, and suddenly her eyes reddened.

She always felt like none of this was real—she had always been quite insecure.

Yes, Uesugi-kun is a good person, willing to keep someone like me by his side, but one day he will get tired of how useless I am, right?

My innate inferiority complex makes this thought linger in my mind.

Every time Kyoko sees Uesugi Kiyoshi's departing figure with his sword, she feels intense anxiety and fear of loss overwhelms her thoughts. When she sees other girls getting close to Uesugi Kiyoshi, she feels sad, but she dares not say a word, for fear of angering Uesugi Kiyoshi and being disliked by him.

She is that kind of girl, carefully protecting what may be her only "faith" in this life, and willing to give everything for it without hesitation.

Uesugi Kiyoshi occasionally has a bout of male chauvinism, but most of the time he is just pretending to be stupid.

Seeing Xingzi's expression, he immediately understood that this little rabbit was thinking about random things again, and he couldn't help but smile wryly, flicking Xingzi's forehead lightly.

"Don't overthink it, I'm right here. Go to sleep if you're tired, I'll stay with you."

Xingzi pursed her lips, her eyes glistening with moisture. She didn't speak, only nodded, but showed no intention of closing her eyes.

Seeing this, Uesugi Kiyoshi didn't force her. He simply adjusted the position of his arm so that Kyoko could lean more comfortably in his arms, and unconsciously tried to find a topic to talk about.

"Um, Anzu, you've had a hard day."

"Shingo said that summoning a soul is a forbidden technique, and there are very few people in this world who can successfully perform it. I never expected that our Xingzi is so powerful that she could snatch a dying soul from the gates of hell."

Kyoko only had a vague understanding of what Uesugi Kiyoshi was saying; she had no idea what kind of magic or summoning was.

She only wanted to save Shiina Kikyo and didn't want to see Uesugi Kiyoshi's angry and heartbroken appearance, so she did it on instinct.

The strength of divine power is closely related to the deities.

Therefore, it is perfectly normal that the strength of the Hundred Demons is closely related to the Lord of the Hundred Demons.

In her previous life, besides the Lord of a Hundred Tales, the most favored person by Yuan Qingya's side was this obedient "Lady Xing".

The Lord of a Hundred Demons even paid an unbearable price to save her.

Therefore, the apricot that was exchanged, having fused with the power of the "Yingcao" demon soul, became ridiculously strong.

Rotten grass turns into fireflies, decaying wood blossoms, the dead are brought back to life, flesh and bones are restored, souls of the dead are saved, and the deceased are protected.

Back then, Xing was capable of easily reviving an ordinary human who had recently died.

Kyoko is currently in a daze, but "summoning the soul" is not difficult for her.

With a slight murmur, Xingzi gently shook her head.

"It wasn't too hard, as long as Uesugi-kun is satisfied."

Her eyes were crystal clear, without the slightest impurity—that was truly what she thought, not just a polite remark.

Uesugi Kiyoshi wanted to say something more, but when he met that look in her eyes, he sighed inwardly and couldn't say anything more.

Some things, he understands without being told.

It seems a bit unreasonable to go to such lengths to save a girl who has a close relationship with someone you like.

Perhaps only apricot could do something like this.
