However, the other party's clothing and appearance did not look like a warrior at all. He looked more like an executioner holding a knife or a sword and beheading people.

"If you don't stop, I'm going to attack you!" The guard growled and held the iron rod in his hand. The top of the rod was tied with cotton cloth, but it was just to hide the sharp blade on the top of the iron rod. In fact, it was a sharpened spear.

Just as he lowered the iron rod in his hand and made a move, he heard an extremely clear roar.

Boom——!

Thunder roared, and the violent rumble tore through the silent and anxious weather, and heavy rain poured down.

In a flash, the guard only saw the strange man's body sway slightly, and he was ten steps away from him in the blink of an eye. He only had time to raise the weapon in his hand for defense, but saw the man swung his arm, and the knife flashed, and the weapon in his hand and half of his body were directly broken apart and fell to the ground, and blood splattered.

The moment the weapon cut into the body, the blade seemed to be sucked into the body.

The blood smeared on the blade was quickly sucked clean.

“Hehe, hehehehe——”

The killer holding the bloodthirsty demon sword laughed strangely. He stretched out his hand and pushed open the door of the Nan family. He swayed his body and stepped over the threshold.

The swaying figure uttered a dry sound. "So thirsty... so thirsty..."

……

In the attic.

Minami Shizhi seemed to hear a woman's scream coming from outside: "Something seems to be happening?"

"Is it... a scream?" Mahiru was slightly startled. "What's going on?"

"I'll go take a look!" Minami Shiori ran out of the attic in a hurry.

Mahiru waited for half a minute, but Shiori didn't come back.

She heard the scream again, and a sense of foreboding came over her.

He was about to stand up, but he was too weak to move.

"Although this rice ball is a weird shape, like eating a Teletubby raw, it still tastes good...Are you really not going to eat something?"

At this moment, suddenly, the familiar voice mixed with the sound of eating rang out.

If she wasn't so weak, she would have jumped up in surprise.

In fact, she tried to get up, but her legs were numb and she couldn't stand up for a while, as if she was a drowning fish jumping up and down.

"Mr. Destiny?"

"Well, it's me... I suggest you eat something and don't waste other people's kindness. After all, you can't fight a war on an empty stomach."

Bai Yu threw the rice ball over: "Your challenge is here."

Chapter 75: This is the only way to go

Corpses, blood, severed limbs, and steaming internal organs sticking out of wounds.

Minami Shiori saw with her own eyes that the guard Awu fell down in front of her. He was seriously injured and his broken arm fell into the mud pit.

The rain wet her shoulders and hair, and the scene before her made her feel particularly unreal.

Suddenly, blood splattered everywhere and familiar people fell to the ground, either injured or dead.

"Second Miss, hurry up, hurry up!"

Genji grabbed her sleeve, covering the bleeding wound: "Run!"

Minami Shizhi suddenly came to her senses and immediately shook her head and said, "No, I can't..."

"Let's go! This is a madman. He rushed in and started killing people indiscriminately. His strength is not that of an ordinary person, but at the level of a supernatural being!" Genji gritted his teeth and pushed Minami Shiori away, asking her to leave quickly with the servants.

He watched helplessly as other people fell in a pool of blood, but he could do nothing. If they were ordinary extraordinary people, it would be fine, but he himself was a hatamoto-level samurai who had entered the first level of extraordinary.

The problem is that the knife in this person's hand is too sharp, and the weapon in his hand will break immediately if it is hit!

There was no way to block the blade. Several people were caught off guard and tried to fight with weapons, but were instantly cut down by the sword.

Having weapons or not makes a huge difference.

This man's swordsmanship was already quite extraordinary, and coupled with that strange demonic sword, the wound began to bleed continuously just by being scratched by it.

This demonic sword seemed to be devouring the blood and energy of the human body, becoming sharper and sharper, with a layer of dim blood-red blade energy when it was swung.

Yuan Er was able to stand here and refuse to retreat because of his loyalty to the Nan family.

Fuso samurai value loyalty very much, and it is common for them to die for honor and loyalty.

As long as the master of the family is not immoral and the social order is stable, there will be no so-called rebellion by the lower class.

Of course, loyalty is not entirely supported by willpower. On the one hand, the treatment given by the Nan family is enough and good enough. He knows that even if he dies, his family will be well taken care of and receive a large pension. Therefore, even if he dies here, he can exchange a better life for his family. On the contrary, if he escapes, he will be labeled as a traitor. Not only will the Nan family not let him go, but his family will also be in trouble.

"Don't even think about passing through here!"

He knew he couldn't escape, so he let out a roar before dying to demonstrate his courage and loyalty.

He rushed directly towards the demon sword. In just a moment, he felt a sharp pain and his entire right wrist flew out and fell to the ground.

The demon sword was raised and chopped towards his head.

Genji thought he was dead and closed his eyes.

when!

The next moment, he heard a crisp collision sound.

I looked up and saw it was Minami Shiori!

She caught the killer's knife.

But that demon sword was clearly extremely sharp... Genji took a closer look and said, "Second Miss, what's in your hand..."

"A precious family heirloom sword. I have no choice but to borrow it in this emergency!"

Minami Shiori did not draw her sword, but used the scabbard as a shield to block the fatal blow that was about to fall on her head.

This sword is called Huocheqi Guangguang, and it is the heirloom sword of the Nan family. Only the head of the family can use it... It is not an ordinary sword. It has survived hundreds of years without decay. It is a symbol of the head of the family and an important asset of the Nan family.

This knife is undoubtedly one of the rare objects. It is mysterious and therefore will not break at the first touch like an ordinary knife.

What surprised Genji was not this, but another reason.

The reason why this heirloom sword was taken so quickly was because it was hung in the most conspicuous place in the Nan family. Hanging it in a conspicuous place is like hanging gold in the lobby, which will definitely attract thieves. The reason why it was so open and aboveboard was because this sword will choose its owner.

Even if one is of Nan family bloodline, if one is not recognized by the knife, one will feel extremely hot when touching the train-cutting light, and one's hands will be burned to pieces... If one is not of Nan family bloodline, one will be engulfed in flames the moment of contact and directly turned into a charred corpse!

Genji had only seen the head of the family holding this sword. The fact that Minami Shiori was able to hold the sword without being affected also meant that the sword recognized her.

Unfortunately, Genji didn't have time to say anything and was kicked away by Minami Shiori.

Although she was holding the Train-Kiri Hiromitsu, this sword was a six-foot-long large sword that had to be held with both hands, requiring a lot of arm strength.

The so-called Odachi is a lengthened and thickened sword, commonly known as the Nodachi. It is rarely seen in kendo schools and is usually used in the military. It was created to compete with the spear - because the spear has a longer attack range, the sword was lengthened to become an Odachi, and the weight and thickness were also increased in order to increase the power of a single chop.

For the specific size, you can refer to the 'Tachi' in Monster Hunter, the size is about the same as that one. Imagine the force of Denglong's sword chopping down, which is almost the impact of a Nodachi chopping on the head. Basically, one sword can kill one person on the battlefield.

However, as good as her imagination may be, Minami Shiori was simply unable to wield the large sword with ease. She was not yet a transcendent, and had not even reached the stress period. Naturally, the principle of the heroic spirit had not been awakened. She could not even pull the large sword out of the scabbard directly. She could only drag it and swing it like a heavy hammer. After resisting several times in a row, her physical strength was also greatly depleted.

The killer failed to draw blood after several attacks, and became even more manic. He rushed forward and slashed wildly, causing Minami Shiori to retreat continuously with her legs shaking.

This was her first time experiencing such a killing array, and she felt fear and terror. She even wanted to drop her weapon and run away.

But she couldn't, because she would regret it if she ran away.

Her home is right here, how can she run away?

She escaped, but Mahiru was still in the attic. She couldn't see anything and would definitely be killed by the killer.

Can't escape.

Hold on a little longer, the message has been sent, someone will be here soon... Just hold on a little longer.

Minami Shiori does not seek victory, nor does she have the qualifications to win.

But this kind of thinking is too weak and naive in the battle of life and death.

After the killer's attacks failed several times in a row, he changed his target and turned to the person on the ground who was still alive, raising his knife and slashing down.

Minami Shiori's eyes were red with anger, and anger made her impulsive, so she rushed forward with a knife.

With a clang, the demon sword swung in an arc, and the bright red blood oozing from the blade turned into crescent-shaped sword energy.

Train Cutting Hiromitsu released a burst of fiery waves, which blocked a little bit of the sword energy, but the remaining impact force still passed through his body, knocking Minami Shiori back. She felt a tightness in her chest and a sweetness in her throat, and she spat out a mouthful of blood and fell into a pool of turbid blood.

She was fooled.

The other party only needs to use a living person as bait to make her expose her flaws.

Minami Shiori wanted to stand up, but her body was out of control. She struggled several times, but she was too weak to move.

He finally managed to raise his weapon, but he was knocked back, sword and all, and fell to the cobblestone ground.

Minami Shiori lost consciousness for a short time, and when she came to her senses, she felt a hand touching her cheek.

"Shiori, are you okay?" Mahiru asked softly. She couldn't see what was going on, so she could only squat down and touch her face and carotid artery.

Minami Shiori's lungs were full of blood at this time. She coughed up blood and weakly urged: "Hurry... run... run... Mahiru, hurry up... run."

Mahiru shook her head: "I'm not running. I'm not going anywhere."

"It's dangerous, there's a killer, you...don't go..." Shiori grabbed her wrist.

"I know. Don't worry, Shiori... I will protect you." Mahiru smiled quietly: "The rice balls you made are delicious."

She walked past her sister who was almost fainting.

Mahiru's eyes were tightly closed. She couldn't see, but she could hear and feel the smell of blood, the chilling murderous intent...it almost gave her arms goosebumps.

After experiencing dozens or even hundreds of deaths in copies, she had experienced too much of this kind of murderous intent that was enough to threaten her life.

At this moment, a familiar voice sounded from behind, and then time seemed to slow down and the sound of rain stopped.

"There's a murderous demon ahead."

The young man leaned against the attic entrance with his arms folded. He warned, "This challenge might be a bit too difficult for you, so you can give up. This time is different from the Shadow World. There's no up-and-down, BABA-like life-extending secret recipe. After all, you only have one life. If you die here, it's probably the end for sure."

"Mr. Destiny, are you trying to get me to run away?"

"From the perspective of universal reason - running away is shameful, but it is useful."

"That's different from what you said last time."

"People need to have flexible moral standards. Those who are too stubborn will die quickly."

"I'm sorry, I'm stubborn and can't change." Mahiru said slowly, "I'm going to accept this challenge and put my life on the line!"

Bai Yu was slightly surprised and said, "I thought you had no feelings for the Nan family."

"I don't like the Nan family, but that doesn't mean I have to hate everything about it... After all, I've lived here for over a decade, and I remember every brick and tile here." Mahiru lowered her head slightly, "And this cobblestone path."

"What's wrong with this road?"

"Many paths in the courtyard at home are paved with cobblestones, but they were not there originally. Shiori laid them there to make it easier for me to walk." Mahiru talked about the past, some old stories that made her feel warm, and also the stubbornness that made her reluctant to leave.

"She was only twelve or thirteen at the time. She spent over a year collecting stones from the river and gradually paved a cobblestone path through our yard. From then on, I never got lost at home again... Although the path was bumpy and uncomfortable, I felt more at ease without it."

"Now I'm standing on a cobblestone road with my sister, who paved this road for me, behind me. I can't go anywhere."

"This is the only way. I cannot give up."

Mahiru's words were powerful: "Then there is only one path ahead of me."

She spoke slowly, "Mr. Destiny, please bear witness to whether I can overcome this life-or-death test!"

The fans value is too high, and I was sprayed to the point of being unconscious_

Chapter 76: The Sound of Rain, Thunder, and Sword Drawing

Bai Yu is both a projection and an audience member here.

He could see it, but couldn't seem to interfere much.

After all, only the ignorant ghost can hear him speak.

She had already made up her mind, so Bai Yu would not spoil the fun at this moment. He just stared at her expectantly and approvingly, and said nothing more.

The girl fell silent again, this time even deeper than before.
