Chapter 47: The Dark Sword Tsukikage's Spirit, Zhou He's Wonderful Adventure!

~7 min read 1,222 words

Jinling.

The Dimensional Wall flashed and vanished.

Su Jing arrived here.

Although he came to Jinling,

there is now a problem.

Where is Zhou He? Fortunately, Xilina is here.

He turned back to look at her.

With just a glance, Xilina understood.

"I am searching; news will come soon. Please wait a moment."

Su Jing said nothing, merely gazing out over the city.

However, it was not long.

Xilina suddenly spoke: "Found her!"

"The knights of the Jinling Association are at the Jinling Hotel."

"The crowd in that area has been evacuated. Barring any surprises, Miss Zhou He should be there!"

Su Jing's eyes narrowed.

At the Jinling Hotel, he directly opened the Dimensional Wall.

"Let's go."

Jinling Hotel.

A girl wearing the uniform of Jinling No. 1 Middle School held two Holy Swords in her hands.

One was precisely the Thunder Sword Ikazuchi.

And the other was the Dark Sword Tsukikage! There was no time to be surprised why Zhou He still had this sword in her hand.

What was even more shocking now was that a voice actually came from within that Dark Sword Tsukikage! "Little girl, if you take two more steps forward, you can start preparing your last words!"

"What are you staring at! Hurry and go the other way!"

Zhou He heard the cold, mature voice coming from within the Holy Sword.

Although the tone was not good, it made her feel an unprecedented sense of security.

She hurriedly moved to the other side.

Sure enough, she did not encounter those who were hunting her on this side at all.

"Phew!" Zhou He let out a long sigh: "Thank you, Sister Yun Yan. If you hadn't kept guiding me, I would have been caught long ago."

"Hmph! I am not doing this to save you; it is merely self-preservation. Pity I just awakened, and my strength is too weak; otherwise, I would not be trapped in this place!"

A slightly displeased voice came from within the Dark Sword Tsukikage.

"Sealed for a thousand years, and hunted down immediately after waking up."

"Truly terrible!"

"Indeed, this world should just be destroyed!"

Hearing the terrifying words spoken casually by the other party,

Zhou He's youthful little face gave a sheepish smile; she did not take it seriously.

She knew the other party was actually a good person.

Just having some waking-up grumpiness after all; she had slept for a thousand years.

Besides, she was still alive now, thanks entirely to the other party's guidance.

"Sister Yun Yan, it's alright."

"Brother said that Mr. Su Jing will come to save me."

"We just need to hold on a little longer."

Hearing these words, Zhao Yunyan laughed right there on the spot.

"Pfft!"

"Your brother is dead himself; he's been dead for two days, and you haven't seen that Su Jing."

"You are actually still counting on someone in Jianghuai who might not even know what happened over here!"

"Naive!"

"I..." Zhou He fell silent.

Her expression was somewhat sad.

Because the matter of her brother Zhou Chang'an's death had been mentioned.

Although her brother had told her about the knights and the Monsters long ago,

and taught her some knowledge about Monsters and methods of self-preservation.

And also, "How can a knight not be prepared to die in battle!"

"A knight who dies on the battlefield is not shameful!"

"Besides, the brother I am following now is the strongest of the current era, a man who is quite... inspiring!"

Her brother had said countless times that he could accept death as his destiny.

But could he really accept being defeated by former comrades?!

If he could accept it! Then the angry and painful look on his face when he fled to her with severe injuries and handed over the Holy Sword did not look like someone who had calmly accepted it at all.

She vaguely remembered the rainy night with continuous downpours.

Her brother, who had said he was going to help his former most inspiring idol, suddenly appeared before her, covered in wounds and barely breathing.

He handed the Thunder Sword Ikazuchi to her and told her to flee to Jianghuai to find Su Jing. But can I even reach Jianghuai!

Does Mr. Su Jing really know everything that happened here?

She looked at the girl before her, lost and sorrowful.

Zhao Yunyan knew she had spoken wrongly.

"Cough!"

"Never mind, don't worry!"

"Do you have any idea who stands before you?"

"I am the master of the Dark Sword, a rarity born once in a thousand years!"

"Rather than rely on that Su Jing, let me take you out."

"Once my strength recovers a little, I'll take you out of Jinling!"

Zhou He hesitated, then nodded: "Can we go to Jianghuai? I think we still need to tell Mr. Su Jing about my brother."

"Do as you like."

"For now, go left, then turn right." Zhao Yunyan pointed the way.

Her way of pointing was by seeing the future.

Yes—seeing the future!

This is the power of the Dark Sword, Yue'an! This Holy Sword allows its user to see the future.

Thus, Zhao Yunyan could easily find the best path.

But soon she suddenly frowned.

"Hmm!"

"Damn it, little girl, get down!"

Suddenly, a terrifying attack erupted directly.

【Xuanwu Mythology!】

【Jitu Luandu Strike!】

Countless rocks and soil wildly twisted and converged, forming a massive Earth Slash that slammed into the entire hotel!

It blew the hotel's roof clean off!

"This is trouble…" Zhao Yunyan frowned.

She had feared this most—destroying the hotel outright.

Leaving them with nowhere to hide.

"Though it's rushed, you'll have to take it now."

"They're coming!"

"Use the Thunder Sword Ikazuchi—I'll guide your battle."

Zhao Yunyan had just finished speaking.

As expected, ahead—

Two figures slowly appeared.

Wind Swordsman!

And Earth Swordsman!

Two knights belonging to the Jinling Knight Association!

Jinling Association is most famous for its Swordsmen.

Like the previous Holy Blade, who was transferred from Jinling Association to Jianghuai Association.

Then there's Zhou Changnian, the Thunder Swordsman, who, due to his unique status, remains in Kyoto.

The rest of the Swordsmen mostly hold their posts in Jinling Association.

"Hmph!"

"You're quite something, little girl."

"You've forced us to destroy this hotel just to find you."

"Enough. Hand over the Thunder Sword Ikazuchi—it's not a Holy Sword meant for you!"

"As for you, you're lucky."

"Speaker Yan wants to specifically add you to the upcoming Trial Assembly—as the traitor Zhou Changnian's sister!"

At these words, Zhou He's face darkened: "My brother is not a traitor!"

"You are!"

"The Knight Association my brother loved was never like this!!"

Even after death, her brother was to be branded a traitor.

She would never allow it.

So, as Zhao Yunyan had said, she gripped the Thunder Sword Ikazuchi tightly.

Under the Holy Blade system, transformation requires a Holy Sword and a Wonder Ride Book! And Zhou Chang'an, as a famed warrior of the Knight Association,

possessed the Alangina Lamp Wonder Ride Book, the Spiky Hedgehog Wonder Ride Book, and the Three-Headed Hellhound Wonder Ride Book—all three Wonder Ride Books, as relics, had been entrusted to her.

"Transform!"

【Ikazuchi Draw! The True Power of the Lamp Demon is about to awaken! Golden Alangina! Ikazuchi Three Books! The Lightning Blade shall shine! Thunder shall roar!】
