Eighth Crown

Chapter 85 - Interests always come first (Repair)



According to Yoshiya Sanyashiki, there are at least 20 swordsmen from the Ghost Killing Team who came here after accepting the quest from Spider Mountain, and among them, different team members face off against different ghosts.

When Liu Xia came to this river, what he saw was this alien ghost with a human shape but an ugly appearance like a spider.

Although it is an alien ghost, it seems that because he has eaten a lot of people, his strength has exceeded the category of ordinary alien ghosts, and his aura is at least much stronger than the hand ghost and toad ghost that Liu Xia encountered before.

The one who confronted him was a boy with a naked upper body and a wild boar hood on his head, who used a double sword like Liu Xia.

The power of the spider ghost is too powerful. When he waved the trunk of the giant tree in his arms towards the boar boy like a stone pillar, he even brought a violent wind whistling through the air.

With that power, if an ordinary person is hit by a tree trunk, more than half of the bones of his body will be broken in an instant, and he will die, even a breathing swordsman will be severely injured.

“Cough!”

Although the wild boar boy tried hard to avoid the spider ghost’s attack, he was accidentally hit by a huge tree trunk. The whole person was like being hit by a truck, and was knocked out by a gust of wind more than ten meters away. It was far away, and it finally stopped when it hit a tree in the distance, and a hard cough came from the throat.

“Oops… at least three broken ribs…”

The young boar has a very good physical perception ability, and his sense of touch is very sensitive. Not to mention the injury in his own body, he can even use his skin to sense the approach of fighting qi and murderous qi.

Only three ribs were broken because he grew up in the mountains, often fighting with wild beasts, and his physical ability far surpassed that of ordinary people.

The wild boar boy was like a beast, holding back the pain with a hard will, stood up from the ground, and was ready to meet the spider ghost’s next pursuit.

But when he raised his head, what he saw was not the manic pursuit of the spider ghost, but an extremely dazzling knife light.

“Chong-“

A sword light as clear as a crescent moon appeared in front of his eyes, and then flashed away at a speed that made him completely invisible.

“Ouch!”

Before he could regain his senses, the spider ghost let out a roar full of pain.

Then his arms were completely separated from his body, and even his legs were slashed by extremely sharp silk threads in an instant, separated from his limbs, and fell into the river, splashing a turbulent water.

That is definitely not an effect that can be achieved with a single knife. If you want to cut off all four limbs from the torso, you will need at least three knives.

However, the wild boar boy did not see the second and third sword lights, it was purely because the three sword lights were too close, almost at the moment when the first sword light was swung, the second and third sword lights were already It swept out like a pair of double lotuses.

In other words, what he actually saw was not a single blade of light, but three blades of blade light swung out at the same time, but it was too fast for his eyes to distinguish.

“Hoo yo yo yo!!!”

From the mouth of the wild boar boy, a scream of unknown meaning came out as if a wild boar was frightened.

This is something he can’t do at all.

But for Liu Xia, it wasn’t even a sword skill, it was just a random swing of the sword.

Standing on a palm-sized stone in the river, Liu Xia looked at the spider ghost whose limbs were cut off and howled miserably because the He Dao blocked his resilience, his eyes were indifferent.

“Where are the other ghosts?”

“Woooooooooo! Hoooooooooooooooooo! You… Damn- ooh!”

Liu Xia frowned slightly as she looked at the spider ghost who couldn’t even utter a complete sentence.

Could this guy be like a toad ghost, an inferior ghost with insufficient intelligence?

“Forget it, it’s not worth wasting time on this guy.”

Liu Xia’s thoughts just started, and the He Dao in his hand has been swung out.

After another knife flash appeared, the spider ghost’s head was broken instantly, and the howling stopped in an instant, and then the entire body, including the limbs, turned into ashes and dissipated.

“The wild boar over there.”

After taking the spider ghost’s head, Liu Xia turned to look at the boy in the wild boar hood who was staring blankly not far away, and asked again, “Do you know where the other ghosts are here?”

“Woooooooooooo!”

The wild boar boy suddenly became clever, and once again made a strange sound like a wild boar, then he held up his two knives in high spirits, and ran to Liu Xia in a flash.

“Child! It’s a child who wields that kind of knife! But it’s okay! Come and fight with me!”

Seeing the wild boar boy dancing and dancing as if excited, Liu Xia frowned again.

Is this another mental retardation?

“Where are the other ghosts?”

Lucia asked again.

Different from the spider ghost who obviously didn’t even have the wisdom before, this wild boar boy is obviously a swordsman of the ghost killing team. Although the thinking circuit of his brain is a bit strange, at least he can communicate with words.

And he went up the mountain much faster than Liu Xia, so he should know the existence of other ghosts.

“Other ghosts?”

After Liu Xia asked again, the wild boar boy clearly recovered from his thoughts, put his hands on his hips, and opened his mouth with a proud look.

“have no idea!”

Lucia turned around and left.

If he says one more word to this guy, he is mentally retarded.

However, the wild boar boy was not finished yet.

“Although I don’t know, we have met other ghosts before!”

Lucia stopped.

“And then that ghost was killed by Tanjirou!”

Lucia continued to walk.

Although she heard the familiar name from the wild boar boy, Liu Xia still didn’t care.

The reason why I saved those two people from Purgatory Kyojuro last time was because I didn’t want the hot feelings between the two to be ignored and tainted by Purgatory Kyojuro.

But although Liu Xia values ​​the precious brother-sister relationship between them, he also has a clear understanding of his own abilities. He is not a god, and he cannot protect those two people for a lifetime. He does not have that ability, so he does not plan to protect like a nanny. They will only help them when necessary.

As long as it wasn’t for sure death, or if their feelings were tainted, Liu Xia didn’t plan to do anything for them.

Moreover, between ‘killing as many evil spirits as possible’ and ‘protecting Tanjirou, who may be in danger’, there has been a conflict of interests, and it is impossible for Liu Xia to choose to give up interests and choose to help them.

In his heart, interests always come first, and other things, whether it’s ‘obligations that he needs to fulfill’ or ‘hot and precious feelings’, have to be placed in the back, not to mention Tanjiro is only in danger. That’s it.

“Wait! What are you going! Fight with me…”

There was the shouting of the young boar from behind, but Liu Xia ignored it, left the river, and continued to turn in the mountains.

Thank you 6+11 for the 5000 points reward!
