Teresa won't starve

next moment.

The black figure that suddenly appeared above the heads of the two of them was already grabbing a large black-painted chopping knife and slashing down.

Fortunately, Teresa's reminder was timely enough, and Sakura was able to jump out of the attack range of the knife with the tip of her nose sideways before she was about to be chopped.

Bang!

The chopping knife that failed to cut the target sank deeply into the snow.

Although the snow itself is relatively much softer, Sakura knows very well that if it cuts on a person, the result will not be much stronger than the snow.

Without hesitation, he pulled out his beloved knife and pointed the blade at the stranger who suddenly appeared.

"who are you?"

Sakura glanced at Teresa who was standing on the other side of the stranger, who didn't seem to be hurt;

Then he focused his eyes on this figure again, wrapped in a black tights, wearing a black cloth on the face, and even the eyes were blocked by short black hair, it can only be judged from the figure that it is a young girl:

"Also, why are you attacking us?"

It's a pity that the other party didn't have any intention of answering.

He pulled out the chopping knife on his own, and put it on his back again.

"Hey! You didn't hear..."

Before Sakura finished speaking, the humanoid girl rushed forward and got into the woods before Sakura could react.When Sakura was about to catch up and ask for clarification.

A black dagger that suddenly appeared shot straight at her from another direction.

It just stuck to Sakura's neck in the blink of an eye, and the cold blade made her feel the familiar sting; Sakura swung the knife almost instinctively, and then knocked the black dagger flying away before the artery was cut open.

but.

The black dagger blade that was blown away did not land as expected. Instead, it spun like a windmill and shot towards the approaching woods. A black silhouette of a human could be vaguely seen along the trajectory.

"over there?"

Teresa glanced at the woods on the right where the humanoid girl fled, and then at the figure in the woods on the left that seemed to be the same individual.After thinking about it, he turned around and wanted to chase after him.

However, she had just taken a step when Sakura shouted at her:

"do not go!!"

Teresa stopped involuntarily.

But at this moment, the figure with the spinning black blade retracted, so that it disappeared from sight while running.Just like before, it suddenly appeared and then disappeared.

Even Teresa couldn't figure out how it was done.

It's not like it's too fast, because that would make a lot of noise;

It can't be abilities like space, because this world is too solid.I am afraid that apart from the Herrscher of the Sky, they can only rely on huge energy to break through the space.

Just like the experiments Teresa did before:

Because the energy reaction produced by the mixture of the two Houkai energy exceeded the upper limit of the world, a small crack was temporarily opened on the 'wall of the world'.

Rule out the above two possibilities!

Teresa looked past Sakura, and glanced at the two sisters who were full of anxiety; a guess suddenly arose in her heart, but she didn't say it immediately, but signaled Sakura to pay attention to their safety with her eyes.

Ying Xin glanced back with a comprehensible side face, and was about to say something to Teresa.

I saw a black figure suddenly appearing behind Theresa, and rushed towards Theresa with silent and fast steps.Its speed was so fast that by the time Sakura found out, she had already removed the chopping knife behind her and cut horizontally towards Teresa's waist.

Sakura didn't even have time to remind her.

but--

"Is it me this time?"

He didn't hear footsteps, he didn't hear the sound of the wind being cut by the blade, and he didn't feel the change of Houkai energy.

Teresa only relied on her 'superior' eyesight to see her own reflection in Sakura's dark blue eyes, so she was able to spot the situation behind her immediately.

Step right foot and turn around.

Clenching his left fist tightly, he struck the pitch-black blade with the blue fire.

1456 "Sakura Sakura"

What will be the result of hammering the blade with bare hands, I am afraid that anyone's answer will be the same.

But Teresa's hand completely violated this common sense.

Boom! ! !

The soft cotton-like little hand turned into a heavy hammer made of gold and stone at this moment; facing the black chopping knife that was coming across, it hit the blade and made a sound like a bell.

The loud noise directly shook off a layer of snow on the pine tree, and even the two girls who were hiding far away had to plug their ears.

As the attacker who faced the blow directly, the humanoid girl was only pushed back a few meters by the huge punch.Then, with this thrust, before Theresa chased after her, she escaped from Theresa's sight again.

"Again!?"

After seeing the humanoid girl disappear, Teresa immediately turned her head and ran towards Sakura.

Sakura also realized something at this moment.

However, neither Sakura nor Teresa expected that the target of the opponent's attack this time was not them; it was the two sisters who were hiding behind Sakura and standing surrounded by several trees.

Whoa whoa whoa!

Accompanied by the sound of metal chains swaying, several black metal chains tied with black dagger blades shot out from multiple directions like living snakes.

Even one of them is less than one meter away from the bell holding the tomb.

"Do not!!!"

Seeing the black dagger blade getting closer and closer to Ling, Sakura tried her best to get to Ling's side before then.

But this is simply impossible for her who is not physically strengthened, and has even experienced many battles before, and her body is already exhausted.

unless--

"give me!!!"

Click!

A slight shattering sound came from Sakura's body, and the 'filth' that had been exhausted emerged again; but under the erosion of the uncontrollable power, Sakura's eyes gradually began to turn into a frenzied scarlet.

Frost slowly crawled up her chin, and even the scenery around her seemed to slow down.

But at this moment-

A scarlet demon knife exuding an ominous aura suddenly flew over from behind, brushed her side face, knocked the dagger blade away, and nailed it to the tree behind the two girls.

"!"

The frenzy in Sakura's eyes became sober at this moment, and she glanced back at Teresa who was making a throwing motion.Almost at the same time, he pulled out his favorite knife and threw it at another black dagger.

himself is——

He rushed behind the two younger sisters at the fastest speed, and hugged them who hadn't recovered yet.But because of this, he exposed his unguarded self to the sharp edge of the knife.

Puff puff puff puff!

The black dagger whose target was suddenly replaced stabbed into Sakura's body without the slightest hesitation.

At that moment, the pain of the skin and muscles being cut was enough to make a determined person change color.But Sakura, who was hugging her two younger sisters, didn't seem to notice it at all, not even the slightest tremor in her body.

Until a drop of warm liquid landed on Tatsumi's frozen and stiff face.Because of that itchy feeling again, he stretched out his hand to touch his face.

"Eh?"

Tsumugi looked at the familiar bright red liquid in a daze, and raised his head to look at Sakura who was embracing him with a warm body:

"elder sister?"

"Big sister..."

Bell stared at Sakura with wide eyes, her brain almost stopped thinking.

"I can know you."

A large amount of blood loss caused Sakura's body to become weak, but it also caused the "filth" that had eroded most of the blood to lose a lot, so that the eyes that were reddened by the erosion of "filth" also returned to their original color.

Reason once again overwhelmed the manic she, looking at the cute faces of the two younger sisters, she suddenly narrowed her eyes and laughed:

"that is really good."

1457 "My lord, it's time to take medicine!"

"Sister/Eldest Sister!!!"

Looking at the elder sister who seemed to disappear in the next second, the two girls who suddenly came to their senses stretched out their hands, trying to catch the elder sister who was slowly falling backwards.

But there was a person who was faster than them and hugged Sakura's body from another direction.

"You are..."

Feel the body that is getting colder even though it is still warm.Theresa slowly put her down so that she could be a little more comfortable.

"...Theresa?"

Sakura looked at the two faces that were gradually soaked with tears, and just as she reached out to wipe them clean, Tsunade held her chest with both hands.Hearing the voices of the two younger sisters calling her, Sakura turned her head to look at the little girl kneeling on the other side:

"Please, take care of me..."

——Sure enough, they are the ones I can't let go of the most.

"Pause!"

Hearing that Sakura suddenly confessed her last words to her, Teresa's face suddenly showed impatience: "Don't make me difficult again, can you? You can take care of your own sister!"

"Hey! What do you mean!? Do you think I can't live without my eldest sister!?"

After listening to Teresa's words, Ling on the opposite side immediately wiped off the tears on her face angrily, grabbed Theresa's shoulder and questioned: "Please explain clearly to me!!"

"Stop arguing!!!!!!!!!"

Zuo suddenly yelled, and then repeated again in tears: "You guys, stop arguing..."

Then, regardless of whether they listened to his words or not, they put down their sister's hand as gently as possible; it was only then that the other two girls realized that Sakura, who still had a smile on her face, had closed her eyes.

It's like having a sweet dream.

"..."

Bell stared blankly at the sleeping elder sister, and slowly let go of Teresa's right hand; trembling hands wanted to hold her face, but she was afraid that it would wake Sleeping Beauty.

"cut!"

Looking down helplessly, Teresa stood up and walked to the side, pulling out the Immortal Cut that was nailed to the tree.Returning to the side of the three sisters, with his right hand hanging directly above Sakura's head, he cut open his own wrist with Immortal Slash.

"I don't have time to babysit other people, so—"

My lord, come and take your medicine!

The bright red liquid, which looked no different from ordinary people, gushed out from the arteries of the small white wrist; and under Teresa's intentional guidance, it flowed into Sakura's partially closed mouth in a straight line.

It's just that in the eyes of others, such behavior is a kind of desecration of the remains of relatives.

"what are you doing!?"

The moment she saw the bloodline, Bell noticed Teresa's behavior.The anger that had just subsided suddenly filled his chest again.

Climbing up with both hands and feet, he was about to grab her by the collar and start a fight.

"Don't get in the way, I'm—"

Teresa was about to explain to her when she felt a stabbing pain in her left cheek.Before he had time to think about it, he pushed the bell, and at the same time slashed to the left with his left hand holding the knife.

Keng! ! !

The black chopping knife collided with the bloody demon knife.

It should have been comparable, but it was because Teresa just responded in a hurry and didn't use much strength.So much so that the demon knife resisted for a while, and was smashed out of his hand during the impact.

Even Teresa was sent flying by that force, breaking the pine tree behind her that had been protecting the two sisters in the blink of an eye.

By the time Bell and Tsumugi came to their senses, Teresa could no longer be seen flying.Only the traces of blood left on the snow indicated that she had existed.
