Chapter 168

"You will not."

The forced smile on Bai Yaksha's face disappeared, and his tone became serious.

"Are you serious...Cheng Rang?"

Shiro Yaksha, who had been calling him human, you, your boy from the beginning, finally changed his name and called the man in front of him by his name.

"I was serious."

Cheng Rang grasped the handle of the long white knife at his waist and whispered: "Because I want you to see the results of my training during this period."

"As the first person who has defeated me... I want you to personally agree that all the efforts I have made to become stronger are not meaningless so far, Shiroyasha."

Chapter 78: The nameless sword that kills with one strike

Cheng Rang's deep eyes, as calm as a lake, looked at Bai Yaksha. After she was silent for a long time, she finally sighed heavily and nodded imperceptibly.

"Okay, as a condition, I'm curious about the reason for your changes during this period." Bai Yaksha smiled and said, "Are you interested in sharing it with me?"

"If we are friends..."

The two held their hands together and shook them slightly before Cheng Rang said, "Then I'm happy to do it!"

The folding fan unfolded with a clatter, and with a flick of Shiroyasha's wrist, the surrounding Baiye Game Field quickly turned into a whirlpool and dissipated beneath his feet, replaced by the endless starry sky in the universe. The huge star that was stepped on by the two of them was burning with red flames. sun.

"Then use this place to show me your power. Don't worry, this is all fictitious and very reliable. Just go ahead and do it!" Bai Yaksha flew to the side far away, clearing this vast place. It was left to Cheng Rang to perform.

"Thank you for your consideration, Shiroyaksha-sama~"

"Stop playing tricks. I'm not afraid of your jokes. I think you are really capable of reaching the double-digit level now. It's outrageous..."

"Oh? So how does it compare with Lord Bai Yaksha in his heyday?" Cheng Rang joked.

"Still a long way to go!"

Bai Yasha closed his eyes and chuckled, covering his face with his unfolded fan.

The somewhat tense atmosphere relaxed slightly as they sang together. Cheng Rang nodded in silence, and then placed his hand lightly on the handle of the knife at his waist.

"It's about to begin."

Bai Yaksha opened his eyes again and stared at the figure in the distance that was preparing to attack. He swallowed subconsciously and said out of his nose: "Yes."

In the distance, a figure holding a long sword was slowly drawing out the sword. As the shimmering blade was pulled out from the scabbard inch by inch, the momentum slowly rising around him became stronger and stronger.

Before the sword move was made, the majestic sword intent spurted out like an overwhelming force, making his clothes flutter and make a sound. The starry sky and light under his feet seemed to be squeezed by this endless tide. Twisted.

Feeling of suffocation.

Bai Yaksha felt the suffocation that caused his blood flow to stop for a moment!

Even if it's not a head-on confrontation, it's as if he's been nailed to the ground by countless sword blades. Bai Yaksha can't even move his eyes even a hair away!

What a terrifying momentum is this? ! How many life-and-death battles did this man named Cheng Rang have to go through to reach this level? !

Bai Yaksha doesn't know, she really doesn't

Know.....

The only thing she knew was that she was about to swing a sword, and she would never be able to catch it now.

He moved....

Draw the sword, swing it, sheath it.

——Then it was all over.

It was an unpretentious strike, simple to the extreme, even like a horizontal slash practiced by a beginner drawing a sword for the first time.

There is no sword light that destroys the world, no extremely hot explosion, no terrifying airflow that tears apart the space, nothing.

Just a horizontal slash.

However, Shiro Yaksha's body, which was stiff due to tension, instantly relaxed, and he let out a long sigh from his suppressed chest.

"call--"

"How's it going?" Cheng Rang turned around and asked Bai Yaksha who was walking aside.

"I can responsibly say that among the people I have ever seen use weapons to fight, you are already the strongest..."

A wry smile formed on her lips.

"As for that strike just now, it has broken away from the meaning of the 'move' and has reached the level of cause and effect. It is a sword that returns to nature... I have nothing to say. Boy, you are well-deserved for the title of Sword God."

Yes, in Bai Yaksha's perception, the visual effect that Cheng Rang's sword could produce was completely meaningless. It carried the power of the rule level. If he wanted to, what kind of effect would be added to that sword? The effect of destroying heaven and earth is within his will, and the destructive power on the physical level is completely unimportant to this blow.

It was a strike that contained the pinnacle of the sword's ultimate intention and reached the state of transformation.

It is a judgment that results in the opponent being "already dead".

"Did you give this trick a name?" Bai Yaksha asked curiously.

Cheng Rang looked at his "human" body that was being destroyed by Yinfan and was constantly being restored by the effects of the special equipment "Avalon". His right hand was shaking violently and he smiled bitterly: "Ah, I haven't had time yet... "

This is the strongest slash that I can use with all my strength after gaining the title of "Sword God" recognized by the system.

It was a move that he understood after integrating and mastering the characteristics of the [Secret Slash Style] that he was most familiar with.

With the concept level slashing of "sure to hit" and "death if hit", it has truly reached the limit of the system's ability to restrain itself. It cannot take even one step further to break through the impossibility of the human race. The strongest blow of the theory.

There are no distance restrictions, no visual restrictions, no need to lock the target, and no need to make judgments.

As long as there is an existence that needs to be defeated, it will be within one's own thoughts...

Kill them all with one blow!

...

"But I think even if you give me a name, no one will be able to remember it, right?" Bai Yaksha shrugged his shoulders in a joking tone.

"Yes, besides myself, there is also you."

"Then I am truly honored, Sword God, Master Cheng Rang~"

"No, Bai Yaksha, I'm more used to it when you still call me 'your boy'." Cheng Rang raised his hands and surrendered with a helpless smile, expressing that he couldn't bear Bai Yaksha's increasingly respectful address.

"Okay, I'll call you by your name from now on." Bai Yaksha fanned the small folding fan in his hand, his tone returned to a relaxed tone, and said: "I know that you already have such a level of ability, then I have to tell you what will happen next. Understand something...so that you don't ruin other people's good things in a moment of excitement."

"What's the matter?" Cheng Rang asked, shaking his still sore hands.

"About how you can easily and happily spend this 'Fire Dragon Birth Festival' where the Demon King will come... Of course, before telling you, we need to play a gift game to free me from the shackles of the contract rules. .”

"Of course..." Bai Yasha said solemnly: "This is a gift competition using the organizer's authority that you cannot refuse!"

"What?"

Snapped!

A familiar demon war chess board was placed in front of the two of them by Bai Yaksha under Cheng Rang's wonderful eyes.

"You can't refuse, I will definitely beat you this time!" Bai Yaksha, who had a dissatisfied smile on his lips, sounded particularly scary at this time.

Seeing this, Cheng Rang couldn't help but slap his forehead and said sadly: "No, you're still here..."

"Why do you look so impatient! We have been studying for a long time to win against you!"

"Okay, okay, let's get off. Are you going to go down with me? Then don't you care about the black rabbits and the others outside?"

"I will control the speed at which time passes. It's completely in time."

"...I'm really impressed by you." Cheng Rang shook his head, sat down in front of the chessboard, and whispered, "You are exactly the same as a certain Bai Mao who is a thief but also a thief who loves to play."

ShiroYasha, who was also sitting opposite, picked up the black chess piece in front of him and said proudly: "Hmph~ Even if I can't beat you in a fight now, I won't lose to a human like you again in terms of brain power!"

"Well, yes, Master Bai Yaksha is really awesome~ Do you need me to give him a break?" Cheng Rang clapped his hands with a perfunctory look.

"Don't look down on me, you little brat! Let's fight, wow, yeah, yeah!"

Then the two of them spent more than ten pleasant hours under the chessboard with the universe as the background, and further exchanged "feelings" more deeply.

Chapter 79: This queen-like Bai Mao loses again at chess

At the same time, the northeastern realm

Wall, free commercial zone.

Entering the gorgeous corridor made of red glass, Izayoi and Asuka, who had blended into the crowd to avoid being chased by the black rabbit, were hiding in the alleys between stores.

"Are you following me?"

Asuka calmed down slightly and looked breathless, then asked Izayoi who poked his head out from the wall.

"Well, I guess not." Izayoi replied, "But I didn't expect to catch up so soon..."

"This means that if you want to use it as bait to lure the black rabbit, even if it is just a joke, it will still be effective."

After confirming that it was temporarily safe, the two walked out of the alley and onto the bustling main road.

Today Asuka is wearing the red dress she got from Black Rabbit before.

Although it may seem unreasonable to think of a dress as a daily wear, it is not a big deal once you get used to it. Moreover, there are many more people wearing strange clothes in Hakoniwa City. After seeing those people, even Asuka himself doesn't seem to think there is anything wrong with using formal clothes as daily clothing.

The lively atmosphere of the super-large festival that was about to begin made Miss Asuka, who had never seen such a formation, seem very excited. With brisk steps, she ran a few steps against the flow of people, then turned around, her gorgeous red skirt like dancing flames. Like flying.

"Okay! Then let's start shopping happily~ Can you be the flower protector, Izayoi-san?"

"Oh? Judging from your previous attitude, I thought you always thought I was a savage and rough person."

"If you care too much about such trivial matters, you won't be able to become an outstanding gentleman, right?" The eldest lady smiled and sarcastically mocked Izayoi in front of her, but in the end, the two people who were in the problem children group were still very congenial.

Izayoi shrugged her shoulders and came to Asuka with a nonchalant expression. She raised her arms and said, "Then I will take the liberty of serving as this unprofessional flower protector, young lady?"

Asuka took advantage of the situation and took advantage of Izayoi's arm and said with a smile: "If it satisfies me, then it might not be a bad idea to certify you with a professional Flower Protector Medal in the future~"

"Then let's take a look around this red corridor first. It looks like a shopping street." Izayoi looked around for a while, "Looking for local specialties or limited edition products is also the essence of sightseeing, and since I am a woman, I Miss, you must like shopping very much, right?”

Asuka's steps paused for a moment, and a hint of gloom flashed across his face.

"Well...maybe you like it, maybe you don't like it?"

"Um?"

Izayoi, who was surprised by the eldest lady's reaction, was pulled forward by Asuka who was striding again before he could ask any questions.

"Okay, let's go. Maybe the store even sells that walking candlestick I saw before!"

"But we didn't bring any money, but if you want it, miss, I can steal one for you."

"Oh, how could you do something like that? That's against the rules."

Asuka shook his head and said with a mischievous smile, "If you want to get something no matter what, you must challenge the gift game and win. This is the rule in the Little Garden, right?"

"That's right." Izayoi responded with a smile.

Both of them started to wander in the red glass corridor with cheerful expressions.

——On the other side, Ms. Kasukabe Yoshi, a fugitive who has been "arrested", is drinking tea in the old branch of "Thousand Eyes" in the North District.

This time she set off suddenly, so she didn't have time to bring the calico cat with her.

Sitting in the box, looking out to the atrium along the corridor, the gurgling water falls into the green bamboo tube along the thin channel. As the bamboo tube turns over, the crisp sound of knocking on the stone makes people feel calm.

"Where did they all go?"

Only himself and Ren, who was stunned by the aftermath of the battle, were left in the box that was bustling just a moment ago.

After Bai Yaksha and Cheng Rang disappeared in the blink of an eye, the young and fateful leader dug out the ruins with his own hands.

The heat of the warm tea cup in the palm of his hand gradually became the same as his body temperature. Yao sighed softly and said to himself: "Hey, I also want to go out to play..." First posted by p group ∽':1 0' 2,0'!0' 3 ;_7 9"9`2 /

"Don't worry, there will be lots of fun next time."

"Cheng Rang, Shiroyasha, are you back?" The voice from behind made Kasukabe Yao turn around. The two people who appeared out of thin air and walked side by side towards him had different expressions on their faces.

Shiroyasha's hands were folded and hidden in the wide kimono sleeves, and he was holding them fiercely with his teeth. He had an angry expression on his face, as if he was still mumbling something outrageous -

If you dare to speak out, I will kill you... or something like that.

Cheng Rang, on the other hand, smiled like a coaxing child, with his hands in his pockets. His smile made people feel like they were taking a breath of spring breeze. But even so, Kasukabe's keen intuition still felt a strange intuition that someone seemed to have suffered a lot of bad luck.

"you....."

"Stop asking!" Bai Yasha shouted, raising a hand to interrupt Yao's question, making her shrink back.
