Chapter 596: Breakthrough

Run out!

Nanako rushed forward with all her might.

Miyoshi Ryota behind her had also given up on defending anything other than his vital points, letting the priests constantly cut messy wounds on his body, following Nanako with all his might, blocking the arms that were trying to grab her.

The priests didn't want to hurt Nanako. Based on this point, plus Miyoshi Ryota's life-risking efforts, perhaps it could really let Nanako escape... if the priests were idiots.

Miyoshi Ryota had too little experience; any Jianghu person with a little experience wouldn't have made such a childish response.

Just for an instant!

Several priests had already rushed in front of Nanako, using a solid human wall to forcibly stop her.

At the same time, the rest of the priests pressed up together, put Nanako aside, and attacked Miyoshi Ryota with full force!

Clang, clang, clang—pfft!

A guardless sword pierced through Miyoshi Ryota's left arm, stuck between his radius bones, and then forcibly twisted!

Clatter.

The left-hand sword fell to the ground.

Before Miyoshi Ryota could break free from the guardless sword pinning his left arm, several attacks landed on his right-hand sword.

Clang!

The clashing sounds overlapped in one place.

The right-hand sword was forcibly deflected by the force stacked together precisely, and then a guardless sword that had been waiting for a long time pierced through his right arm, twisted, and the right-hand sword also fell to the ground with a sound.

"Don't look back!"

Miyoshi Ryota roared. Nanako in front forcibly stopped the action of looking back, gritting her teeth and trying to bypass the priests blocking the way.

But she didn't succeed.

Nanako had never practiced martial arts and hadn't experienced fighting. She was slow and didn't know how to hide her movements. Just after taking one step, the silent priests blocked her back.

The encirclement gradually closed.

"Ugh, ahhh!"

Miyoshi Ryota roared, struggling wildly. The guardless sword piercing his arm cut along the radius bone, and blood flowed like a river.

Pfft, pfft.

But the next instant, more guardless swords pierced through his arms from all sides, and then exerted force to lift, forcibly "hanging" him up.

A priest walked in front of him, raised his plain white mask, and seemed to be looking at Miyoshi Ryota through the mask.

Miyoshi Ryota roared like a beast being hung up.

"Let go of me! Let go of me!"

The priest didn't speak, silently, extremely slowly, like an executioner, drew the guardless sword from his waist, and extremely slowly pressed the blade against his heart.

Pfft.

The sharp blade cut through the clothes, cut through the skin and flesh, and stopped when it hit the ribs.

The priest slowly exerted force.

So the blade separated the ribs bit by bit.

"Ugh, ahhh!"

Miyoshi Ryota roared and struggled.

"Don't!"

By this time, Nanako finally couldn't help but look back, let out a sad cry, and pounced toward Miyoshi Ryota, but she exposed her back to the priests.

Slap, slap.

The priests suddenly stepped forward, grabbed Nanako's arms and twisted them behind her back, and then a palm-blade precisely cut onto the back of her neck.

"Ugh!"

Nanako let out a muffled groan, her consciousness instantly dissipated. At the last moment before losing consciousness, she barely raised her head to look at Miyoshi Ryota, who was roaring with wide eyes.

"Ryota-kun..."

Nanako fainted. The priests who grabbed her immediately carried her and turned to leave with extreme speed.

"Come back!!!"

Miyoshi Ryota roared and struggled.

But the next moment, with a light click, the guardless sword cut his ribs, cut into his chest cavity, and headed toward his heart.

The plain white, spotless priestess's robes filled the courtyard. Miyoshi Ryota was hung in mid-air, the moonlight spilled down, silence and roaring overlapped, and cold killing intent and angry killing intent flowed evenly. ===== CHAPTER 597 =====
