Chapter 471 Bloodline of the White King
Ruri Kazama told how he felt at that time.
Premonitions of crisis coming from all directions, with nowhere to escape, are so huge.
"Well, I discovered it too."
Lu Mingfei said.
"Brother Lu, do you know the reason?"
"Some speculation."
Lu Mingfei recalled the situation at that time.
"It seems that when I was about to walk to the shrine and take away the Tiancong Yun Sword, the Deadpools moved."
"Deadpool's words..."
Mai Shutoku suddenly realized.
"Master, you mean, the lair of demons and ghosts."
Lu Mingfei nodded.
There was a knock on the door, and the three of them looked alertly.
"it's me."
A woman's gentle voice came.
"Sword Shihua."
The little girl Jian Shilian supported her sister Jian Shihua and sat down opposite Lu Mingfei.
Jian Shilian smiled sweetly at Lu Mingfei.
Jian Shihua's face was covered with a veil and his whole body was wrapped in bandages.
"I'm extremely sorry, Lord God Envoy."
Jian Shihua lowered his head and spoke.
"Young lady, I'm rude."
Lu Mingfei glanced at the veil on Jian Shihua's face. ,
"Does it still hurt?"
Under the veil, Jian Shihua curled up the corners of her mouth and showed a warm smile.
"Thank you for your concern, sir. The little girl is fine."
Mai Shutoku and Ruri Kazama were holding tea and exchanging glances with each other.
They cannot understand the ancient language and can only kill time by using it.
"What do you think this woman is here for?"
"No need to ask, I must be here to thank my young master."
"Auntie, I mean, how can she thank you."
"Little devil, if you dare to scream again..."
"Wait a moment!"
Mai Shutoku showed a thoughtful look.
"How to thank... kid, you mean!"
A sharp cold light flashed through Fengjian Liuli's gentle eyes, and she lightly blew on the hot air from the tea.
"Promise yourself."
Both of their faces darkened.
They calmly raised their ears and listened to the conversation between Lu Mingfei and Jian Shihua. Even if it was an ancient language they didn't understand, they tried their best to translate it in their minds.
His serious attitude is comparable to fighting the Deadpool wave.
"You must have just finished taking the medicine."
Lu Mingfei smelled the aroma of herbs floating in the air.
Jian Shihua smiled and said nothing. She was worthy of being a divine envoy. She couldn't hide anything. Indeed, as soon as she finished applying the medicine, she came to Lu Mingfei's place without stopping.
"The injury left by the sacrifice on you is very serious. You should rest and come to me. Is anything wrong?"
"Yes."
Jian Shihua said solemnly.
"It's a very important matter, Lord Envoy."
"About the divine body."
The two sisters Jian Shihua have unusual identities. Originally, after the elder passed away, the next elder would be selected from the two sisters.
And if nothing unexpected happens, it is probably Jian Shihua.
The ancient Sword Attendant clan maintains the hereditary inheritance system of elder status, and it is passed down from female to male. This system has its own necessity for existence, and it is the special bloodline of the elder lineage.
The blood descendants of their lineage have a great affinity with the Tian Congyun Sword and can get close to the Tian Congyun Sword. There were even records of talented elders picking up the Tian Congyun Sword and gaining their approval.
It can be said that the members of this lineage of Sword Servers have inherited the position of elders from generation to generation. They are not just enjoying the rights, but also fulfilling the corresponding obligations and taking on important tasks that others cannot bear.
And all of this suddenly changed after the outsider visited decades ago.
Unknown changes occurred in Tiancong Yunjian, and even the elders could not sense it.
Then came the curse.
Even now, the curse has befallen the elders.
In fact, today, the Sword Warrior clan is almost at the end of its rope.
Even the next elder’s sister Jian Shihua was used as a sacrifice.
This is enough to illustrate the seriousness of the situation.
The appearance of Lu Mingfei is the only light for the Sword Warrior clan in the darkness.
As long as the Tian Congyun Sword is taken away, they can be freed from the abyss of pain.
Therefore, the elders of the Sword Warrior clan decided to place all their hopes on Lu Mingfei.
"Sir, actually a few decades ago, there was no demon lair here."
Jian Shihua said.
"In the past, the Sword Attendant clan was loyal to their mission and protected the divine body. Everyone was proud of this and never thought of leaving."
"but……"
Jian Shihua bit his lip.
"Things have changed since the curse came decades ago."
"But when the tribesmen wanted to leave, they found that they could no longer leave."
"I don't know at what time, the Sword Warrior clan was surrounded by demons and ghosts. They built nests and hunted anyone who dared to step out of the clan's territory."
"Fortunately, maybe it's because of the blessing of the divine body..."
Speaking of this, Swordsman Hua paused, and a bitter smile appeared at the corner of his mouth under the veil.
Decades ago, the Sword Attendants clan must have spoken from the bottom of their hearts when they talked about divine protection, but now, probably only they themselves know what their specific feelings are.
Jian Shihua sighed silently and continued.
"In short, Yougui is only trapped in Yougui's lair and moves outside Izumo Country. He has never set foot in Izumo Country."
"but……"
Jian Shihua looked at Lu Mingfei seriously.
"If you, my lord, want to take away the divine body, you will definitely disturb the demon's lair."
"In fact, grandma has always suspected that these monsters and ghosts were born under the influence of the divine body. If something happens to the divine body, it will definitely cause abnormal movements in the monster's lair."
"I see."
Lu Mingfei nodded.
"So what are your choices?"
Jian Shihua bowed his head respectfully.
"Please take action, sir, to take away the Tiancong Yun Sword."
Before leaving, Lu Mingfei asked Jian Shihua a question.
"Haven't you been responsible for guarding the Tian Congyun Sword for generations?"
"Just let me take it away, is it okay?"
Jian Shihua looked very weak, but his answer was extremely firm.
"The divine body must have a clan of sword servants."
"The Sword Attendant clan is also protecting the divine body."
"We are not unilaterally receiving the blessings of the divine body, we are also giving."
"Man and God are mutually chosen beings."
"Now, it's not that we give up the divine body."
"But the divine body betrayed us."
Jian Shihua bowed deeply to Lu Mingfei, and the little Jian Shilian also followed suit.
The two sisters helped him away.
Only Lu Mingfei and three people were left in the room again.
No one spoke for a while, and silence enveloped the place.
It was Lu Mingfei who broke the silence.
He recalled Jian Shihua's last words, shook his head and chuckled.
Are you actually saying that gods betrayed humans?
really interesting.
"What do you think..."
Lu Mingfei asked the two of them.
"Brother Lu, no."
"Master, I don't agree!"
Lu Mingfei blinked blankly and looked at the two people who spoke in unison.
Kazama Ruri and Shutoku Mai looked at each other. It was rare that these two guys who had never dealt with each other reached a consensus for the first time.
They saw the same determination in each other's eyes.
This time, even if it made Lu Mingfei unhappy, they had to speak.
"Brother Lu!"
Kazama Liuli spoke solemnly.
"We know how you feel."
Mai Shutoku was very sincere.
Lu Mingfei was even more confused.
He opened his mouth.
"No!"
Kazama Liuli stretched out his hand to interrupt.
"Brother Lu, this is a lifelong event and should not be decided rashly!"
"Yes, Master!"
Mai Shutoku slapped the ground hard.
"Promise yourself or something like that. This is the 21st century. Boys must protect themselves outside."
After a long while, Lu Mingfei finally came to his senses.
Lu Mingfei pointed at his face.
He looked at Kazama Ruri. "A lifelong event?"
Kazama Liuli nodded seriously with a small face.
Lu Mingfei looked at Jiude Mai again, his tone hard to express.
"Promise yourself? Talk about me?"
Mai Shutoku nodded her head seriously.
Lu Mingfei opened his mouth and then closed it.
For a moment, he didn't know what to say.
Lu Mingfei looked at the two of them helplessly.
"you……"
"What are you thinking about?"
Lu Mingfei, who finally explained the matter clearly to the two of them after spending a lot of words, let out a long sigh of relief.
Kazama Ruri scratched her head and smiled awkwardly.
Mai Shutoku had the same expression.
"Speaking of which, that guy and Brother Lu saved her life. According to international practice, shouldn't he be the one to marry her!"
"It's just that my young master is so talented and charming, but she still refuses to take the initiative to embrace him!"
The two of them talked to each other and quickly reached a consensus.
The consensus was quickly followed by outrage.
"No vision!"
"Not polite!"
"I don't know etiquette!"
"It makes no sense!"
Lu Mingfei's eyes became blank again.
Wait, wait, wait.
Is there something wrong?
From what you said before, didn't you mean that you were against me agreeing to that kind of commitment?
Why are you angry now because Jian Shihua didn't bring it up?
I made a promise with my body or something, but I disagreed when I mentioned it, and I got angry when I didn't.
What do you want?
Lu Mingfei shook his head. He felt that the thoughts of these two people were really difficult to understand.
"OK OK."
Lu Mingfei called for a stop.
"Let's put aside the promises we make."
"Now let's talk about the demon lair."
"As for the demon lair..."
Mai Shutoku smiled confidently.
"Don't worry, young master, just keep it with me."
"you?"
Kazama Ruri's tone was intriguing.
"Why, kid, you have an opinion."
Mai Shutoku clasped her fingers.
"Don't forget who I am!"
As soon as these words came out, Fengjian Liuli nodded thoughtfully.
Mai Shutoku showed a proud expression.
"Since you are Brother Lu's subordinate, you must have something extraordinary."
Jiudoku Mai subconsciously wanted to refute, glanced at Lu Mingfei, and finally gave up.
Although Kazama Ruri's focus was slightly deviated, the result was correct. Defending against unusual movements in the demon lair could be left to Mai Shutoku.
Mai Shutoku is a ninja, and she is also a leader among ninjas. In addition to her outstanding personal abilities, Mai Shutoku has also trained a ninja army to defend monster lairs and so on. The first thing that comes to mind is definitely various defenses. , mechanisms and traps, these are easy for Shutoku Mai to have at her fingertips.
"Brother Lu, although I am not proficient in traps, I will do my best to help."
"No matter what these monsters want to do, they must first ask my sword whether they agree or not."
The sword on Fengjian Liuli's waist buzzed and vibrated, as if he was echoing his master's words.
"anyway."
Kazama Liuli touched his chin and pondered.
"As for the demon lair, with us and the Sword Attendant clan, it won't be a problem to resist it."
"The key lies with you, Brother Lu."
Fengjian Liuli lowered her tone and looked directly into Lu Mingfei's eyes.
"Brother Lu, taking Tian Cong Yun Sword is not an easy matter."
"I've been meaning to ask since just now."
Lu Mingfei looked at the two of them.
"Did you see anything in the shrine?"
This sentence obviously brought back memories for the two of them.
Their eyes were blurred, and after a long time they slowly shook their heads.
"It's an illusion, Master."
"No, Brother Lu, it's not just an illusion."
The eyes of Lu Mingfei and Jiude Mai were focused on Fengjian Liuli.
Kazama Liuli recalled the feeling at that time and nodded to herself.
He smiled freely.
"Brother Lu, have you heard of King Bai?"
"White King..."
Lu Mingfei murmured and repeated.
This sounds like the title of a great being in the Time Dragon Clan, but Lu Mingfei has never heard of it. His knowledge of the Dragon Clan all comes from the people of Sunny and Mai Shutoku. All he has heard of is the ability to control the four major elements of earth, water, fire, and wind. The monarch of the realm, and the supreme emperor of the Dragon Clan, the Black King.
Wait, Black King.
Lu Mingfei's heart moved.
Black King, White King.
These two sound like titles that are relative to each other.
If he said they had nothing to do with each other, Lu Mingfei would definitely not believe it.
"Brother Lu, you must also know that the mixed-race species in this land are different from those in other places in the world."
"Here's why."
Kazama Ruri glanced at Shutoku Mai, but didn't see any surprise on the female ninja's face.
He smiled.
Kazama Ruri continued.
"Almost all hybrids believe that their bloodline originated from the Black King."
“But this land is not.”
"we are……"
Kazama Ruri whispered.
"The blood descendant of the White King."
"The Black King is the supreme emperor of the Dragon Clan, and the four great monarchs of the gods are just his children."
"But the Black King's rule was not extremely stable from beginning to end. He had challengers, or rebels."
"That is an existence with the same personality as him."
Kazama Liuli recited that person's honorable name again.
"White King."
He spread his hands.
"Perhaps it is also because of rebellion. We are born guilty. As sinners of the White King's blood, we must be punished."
"Brother Lu, have you ever heard of ghosts in other places?"
"no."
"This is the sin we are born with."
"Unstable bloodline, uncontrollable instincts, swinging between humans and beasts, even..."
Kazama Liuli said.
"Brotherhood."
His fists were clenched tightly.
Kazama Ruri let out a breath.
He has returned to his original free-spirited, cynical and legendary Cowherd.
"Having said so much, actually I just want to tell Brother Lu something."
"The authority of the White King..."
"The four great monarchs each have authority, but they cannot compare with the White King, because the White King is the same person as the Black King."
"Actually, Brother Lu, you should have discovered it earlier."
"Kassel's psychiatrist Masashi Toyama, his speaking spirit cannot be classified in any of the four realms."
"Hypnosis."
Kazama Liuli smiled.
"That's right, this is the authority that belongs to the White King."
"Spirit, or soul, is fine."
"I suspect that Yamata no Orochi has a lot to do with the legendary White King."
"And the Tiancongyun Sword taken out from the body of the Yamata no Orochi naturally has considerable power in the spiritual realm."
Kazama Ruri smiled at Shutoku Mai.
"The hallucinations we saw at that time were actually affected by the White King's authority."
