The Heaven's Chain of Juwang Academy

Looking at the room covered in blood, Yukinoshita Yukino's hair stood up all over her body.

She quickly approached Qin Xiao. She didn't want to stay in this place for even a second longer.

Chapter 47: Good Assistant: Yukinoshita Haruno!

There was no conversation along the way, and after returning to the apartment, the two went back to their respective homes.

Time passed little by little, night fell, and Qin Xiao slowly opened his eyes at home.

After packing up and picking up the sword bag containing the 'Sun Wheel Sword', Qin Xiao was ready to start 'ghost hunting'. Now that he had the Sun Wheel Sword, he could start the official hunt.

This was the first time in Qin Xiao's history that he was so eager to become stronger.

In this steel city where evil spirits are hidden in the darkness, he must become stronger, otherwise he will be very passive. The little bit of inheritance that increases every day can no longer satisfy Qin Xiao.

I've only been in this world for a few days, and I've already encountered ghosts twice.

Just as he himself said, mystery attracts mystery, and the ghost-slaying swordsman will naturally attract the arrival of evil spirits. Therefore, whether it is to protect himself or to kill the invading evil spirits, Qin Xiao must become stronger.

Although he has the last insurance of 'unblocking strength', Qin Xiao does not intend to do so unless it is absolutely necessary.

'boom--'

After closing the door, Qin Xiao prepared to go out hunting.

"Where are you going so late?"

"Huh? Why are you here?"

Qin Xiao looked at the person in front of him with a little surprise, Yukinoshita Haruno, as a college student, does she have so much time?

"Why can't I be here? After something like this happened, how can I leave Yukino alone at home? Of course I have to come back to be with her."

"I see. The results of the ultraviolet lamp experiment are out. It can restrain ghosts, but it can't kill them."

"I know. Yukino called me in the evening."

"Well, that's good if you know."

After nodding, Qin Xiao prepared to go out.

"Hey, I haven't settled the score with you yet."

"You want to settle accounts with me?"

"It's fine if you go looking for ghosts, but why do you have to bring Xiao Xueno with you? What if something unexpected happens, what will happen to Xiao Xueno?"

"She has to adapt because she will definitely encounter more in the future."

"What do you mean?"

"Literally, people who are attacked by ghosts will mostly encounter ghosts again."

Hearing this, Yukinoshita Haruno's face suddenly turned ugly. Will her most cared-for sister continue to encounter such monsters in the future?

Thinking of this, Yukinoshita Haruno began to ponder in her heart.

Should we send Xiao Xueno abroad?

As long as you're not in Fuso, you won't encounter ghosts.

"Wait a minute, where are you going?"

"Ghost hunting!"

"Ghost hunting? You want to kill ghosts? Are you crazy?"

"I am a demon-slaying swordsman, and if I want to become stronger, fighting is the best option."

"It's up to you. But since you're going to hunt ghosts, I'll give this to you."

'Snapped--'

A folder flew over and Qin Xiao caught it subconsciously. When he opened it, he was shocked.

Because it records and summarizes all the suicide cases, missing persons cases, unsolved homicides, etc. within the Chiba City in the past three months.

Even some strange but inexplicable traces in many cases were listed one by one.

"Did you organize this today?"

"Well, there are only three copies. I cleaned up the information on the computer after printing them because I didn't want to leave any traces. So don't lose them."

"Thank you~"

"Humph, who wants your thanks? I did this all for Yukino-chan, you were just doing it for the sake of it."

After saying that, he took out the key and walked into the apartment opposite.

Qin Xiao smiled. Looking at the information in his hand, he became more confident.

Originally, Qin Xiao was planning to rely on his perception of "ghosts" to look for traces of ghosts, but now it seems that he can save a lot of effort.

As long as we go to the towns where the crimes occurred, we can conduct a limited search.

If it is the same as in "Demon Slayer", then the demons will have their own activity areas. Since Muzan does not allow demons to gather in groups, most demons act alone, or in groups of two or three at most.

"Master Qin Xiao~"

"Hmm? Are you here?"

As soon as I went downstairs, I saw the Yukinoshita family's car parked at the door, and the driver was waiting at the main entrance.

"It was the eldest lady who told me to stay here and listen to your orders, saying that you needed a car."

"That's it~"

Subconsciously looking up at the apartment building, Qin Xiao's mouth curled up slightly.

It feels good to have someone to help with the chores.

"The first destination is Chiju Town, Huayin Street."

"Yes, Master Qin Xiao."

As the driver of the Yukinoshita family, he knew his position very well.

He was just a subordinate. He had no right to ask what his master wanted to do or where he wanted to go. He only needed to drive his own car.

'Om—'

The car started slowly and the scenery outside the window began to change rapidly.

Meanwhile, in front of a window of an apartment building, two beautiful girls watched the car drive away.

"Sister, he really went to hunt those monsters. Why, why would he do such a dangerous thing?"

Yukinoshita Yukino said something that was difficult to understand.

As the saying goes, there is always a chance of misstep. Even if he is very strong, if he keeps hunting such monsters, he will be doomed if something unexpected happens.

This is not a game, but a struggle between life and death. It's either you die or I die.

Today she saw with her own eyes what would happen to a person who was held down by a ghost. Not only would the person die, but he would also be eaten.

If Qin Xiao had not suddenly arrived, he might have ended up like that unlucky guy today.

"Xue-no-chan, when facing an unknown threat, all he can do is to become as strong as possible, even if that process means risking his life."

"But, sister, if you die, then everything will be in vain."

"That's better than being powerless when danger comes."

"I can't do anything——"

Now, and before, I feel so helpless.

If I think about it this way, the idea that I have always been pursuing the "right" and helping the "weak" as a "rich" person has now been broken by myself.

Thinking back, what I just did was exactly what I hated the most, 'escape'.

"Sister, I want to become stronger."

"As expected of you, Yukino-chan. But I'm sorry, even I can't do anything this time."

"That's it~"

"But don't be sad, someone will help us."

"Huh? Who is it?"

"The man who just left."

"Qin Xiao?"

"That's right. Didn't you notice that the guy has already begun to consciously pull you into his group?"

"he--"

Thinking about it, it was true. After all, if he just wanted to experiment with the ultraviolet lamp today, there was no need to bring her with him because she would be a burden.

Chapter 48: What should we call this school? Yukinoshita-ryu?

'Wow—'

The Sun Blade in his hand cut off the ghost's neck.

Under Qin Xiao's gaze, the ghost gradually turned into ashes and completely disappeared from this world.

In one night, I traveled to eighteen towns where murders frequently occurred and killed a total of three ghosts. This was the third one, and I obtained 0.5% of the inheritance degree.

It's already early morning and it's time to go back.

"Let's go back."

After getting in the car and putting away the sword bag in his hand, Qin Xiao said to the driver.

"Yes, Master Qin Xiao."

The driver started the car and started driving again.

After running around so many places this evening, he had some guesses about what his young master was looking for, or who he was looking for.

However, as a qualified driver, he would not and could not inquire about these things.

Moreover, as an experienced person, he knows very well that sometimes knowing too much is not a good thing.

He is just a small driver. Driving is his job, and other than that, everything has nothing to do with him.

When he returned to the apartment, it was almost 1:30 in the morning. Qin Xiao felt a little sad. He was really tired now. He had classes during the day and hunted ghosts at night.

However, today's ghost hunting did yield some results.

That is, after interrogation, it was found that the longest time these ghosts had been ghosts was less than two months, and there was only one of them. The others became ghosts within this month.

This means that there is a high possibility that Muzan Kibutsu is in Chiba.

Because the only one who can create ghosts is this ghost ancestor. If this is the case, then my large-scale ghost hunting is likely to attract the other party's attention.

However, considering the other party's 'cowardly' character, I'm afraid he won't come directly to me, but will send more powerful ghosts.

The only thing that Qin Xiao cared about was whether the Twelve Demon Moons under his command had come with him when Kibutsu Shimushi came to this world.

Nothing happened that night, and Qin Xiao woke up at 6:30 in the morning.

For Qin Xiao now, four or five hours of sleep is completely enough.

Just like before, after getting up and washing up, Qin Xiao began today's practice.

Moreover, because of the Sun Wheel Sword, Qin Xiao felt relieved, his mind became more stable, and he was more immersed in the understanding of the sword.

"Ding, 0.7% template inheritance degree obtained!"

"Hu~~"

After exhaling a breath of foul air, Qin Xiao slowly opened his eyes, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

Just as I guessed, as long as I put my whole body and soul into it, I can enter that special state. Is this the talent of "Sword God"? It really makes people envious and jealous.

'Om—'

Along with the sound of zipper, Qin Xiao placed the Sun Wheel Sword into the sword bag again.

Then I went to prepare breakfast and washed the lunch box I brought back. I forgot about it last night. This was prepared by my future girlfriend for me.
