"!!!"

Miyoshi Ryota was fighting with the priests. Because most of the priests were drawn away by Lu Wushuang, the pressure on his side was not great, and he had leisure to pay attention to the battle situation on Lu Wushuang's side.

He saw that face clearly and was shocked!

"Big Sister!"

He shouted.

What's going on!

The Shinto priests who came to catch Nanako—why did one have a face similar to Nanako's eyebrows and eyes... Could it be that Nanako's previous inferences were all wrong, and Nanako's family was originally a member of Shinto?

Was the priest Lu Wushuang killed just now Nanako's father?

His heart was in a mess for a while, and his movements slowed down, but he heard a cold snort from Lu Wushuang in front.

"Why worry? Just kill them!"

"Don't worry about killing the wrong person; Nanako's father is not here... I'll tell you the specific situation later!"

Miyoshi Ryota finally came to his senses and said urgently again.

"Big Sister, I'll block them here! You go save Nanako quickly!"

But Lu Wushuang, who had been answering fluently just now, seemed to have killed until her eyes were red, without any intention of rushing out of the courtyard. She shook her soft swords in both hands and flashed to kill the priests.

"!!!"

Miyoshi Ryota felt anxious, but after all, his martial arts were poor, and he couldn't break free from the several priests in front of him, so he could only forcibly suppress his anxiety and fight with his two swords.

Roaring, angry shouting, painful groans.

Blood, dust, sparks.

Half an hour later, the dust settled.

Miyoshi Ryota kicked away the priest's corpse hanging on his sword, planted his sword on the ground, gasped for breath for a while, and then looked up.

Lu Wushuang also cut off the head of the last priest, shook the blood off her sword, shook her hands, and the soft swords were retracted into her sleeves.

After a fierce battle, she only had a slight sweat on her forehead, her breathing was still even, and there were no blood stains on her body, obviously having spare strength.

Before coming to Dongying, she was already a peak expert, and after being pointed out by Li Miao several times in the past few months, she could now be considered the strongest tier of peak experts below Heaven-Man.

With no Heaven-Man appearing, they posed no threat to her.

But this made Miyoshi Ryota even more confused.

"Big Sister!"

He sheathed his sword and ran to Lu Wushuang, seeing her standing calmly in place, and couldn't help but say urgently.

"Nanako has been taken away!"

"We—"

Lu Wushuang reached out to stop him.

"Hey, I'm not deaf."

"I heard you."

Miyoshi Ryota was stunned.

"Then why not chase?"

Lu Wushuang smiled.

"Naturally, there is no need."

"She won't be in danger. At least compared to following us, it will be safer for her on Shinto's side."

"And..."

Saying this, Lu Wushuang squatted down, reached out and picked up the mask on a priest's corpse, revealing the pale dead face underneath.

"We have things we need to do."

"Look."

She pointed to that face.

Miyoshi Ryota looked over, but was stunned for a while, and then suddenly realized something. He flashed to another corpse, lifted the mask to take a look, and then lifted the masks of several others in the same way, before suddenly turning to look at Lu Wushuang.

"Big Sister... what's the situation..."

He was still holding the mask, and on the ground in front of him, the priest's corpse whose mask had been lifted actually revealed a face that was also extremely similar to Nanako's eyebrows and eyes!

It wasn't just this one.

All the priest corpses whose masks had been lifted, although they were of different ages, had slightly different appearances, and different wrinkles and spots, if one looked closely, one could find a trace of similarity between their eyebrows and eyes.

Miyoshi Ryota only felt a chill in his back.

What's the situation?

Such uniform similarity in eyebrows and eyes—if they aren't relatives, what could they be?

But Nanako's family, except for servants, only had her parents, so how did so many relatives suddenly pop up among the Shinto priests!

Could this be the reason why Nanako's family was monitored and controlled, and then their existence traces were erased by Shinto!

He was still puzzled, but Lu Wushuang had no time to explain more to him. She just bent down to cut off a few heads, tore off a set of priestess's robes and wrapped them into a bundle, and flew onto the roof.

"Let's go."

"The commotion is so big, Shinto will definitely come to check in a while. If a sword saint comes, I can't beat them—hurry up!"

Miyoshi Ryota heard this, so he had to stomp his feet, fly up, and follow Lu Wushuang to run into the distance.

After running for the time it takes to burn an incense stick, Lu Wushuang suddenly turned, took Miyoshi Ryota around a few times, and stopped in a dim alley for a while.

After confirming that no one was chasing, Lu Wushuang let out a long breath. ===== CHAPTER 598 =====
