Chapter 602: 602
“Houzouin In’ei-ryu spearmanship is here . Ignorant whelp, take this!!”
“Yagyu Shinkage-ryu, Muto Dori! Iai Slash!”
“I am Yoshioka Seijuro, I have nothing to fear from the greed of someone with a false reputation, watch this!”
“Sword Saint Nobutsuna! Give me your life!”
“Tsubame Gaeshi!!”1
“I am Miyamoto Musashi of the ‘Niten Ichi-ryu,’ you shall become a stepping stone upon my path to becoming strong…Hah…”
“…”
The cultured Kyoto seemed especially lively these past few days . The several dozen ghost martial paths entrenched in Kyoto had all encountered challenges from a young man . This young man prattled on about finding the Ghost Path Sword Saint who had refined the Ghost Path to its pinnacle . Beside the man was a beautiful woman, stunning the entire city of Kyoto, inciting the envy of countless . The swordmasters of each of these training fields each declared bold words, yet the conclusions were total defeats in duels . And immediately afterwards, the publicly recognized strongest ghost martial cultivator in Kyoto, the Sword Saint possessing the name Kamiizumi Nobutsuna, was defeated .
The name “Ghost Buddha” spread throughout the sakura of Kyoto .
“Ghost Buddha?” Wu Siyou could not help but feel that such a name was ridiculous when she heard of it . “What an honestly cultured reverence they have . ”
The Su Xing who had spent the last few days turning Kyoto on it head shrugged . To be honest, Kyoto’s ghost martial cultivators were indeed very strong, but the difference in cultivation was too great . Even if he did not use Supervoid spiritual pressure to restrain them, just by relying on his combat abilities alone, Su Xing was able to easily emerge victorious . Of course, due to using the Meditative Mind Lotus Flower in battle, and also not striking the killing blow agaisnt those so-called ghost martial swordmasters, this “Ghost Buddha” title spread like wildfire, known throughout Kyoto .
“However, none of them could reach the pinnacle of the ghost path . ” Afterwards, Su Xing consulted with these ghost martial cultivators on the sword chants they trained in, but none of them could match with Ghost’s Godsbane .
“Does Lord Husband truly wish to refine the Ghost’s Godsbane?” Wu Siyou stopped her footsteps, turning her head back to stare intently .
“I wouldn’t mind if I could try it, but it’s not something I have to do . ” Su Xing smiled . In actuality, he did this because of Li Taisui . His Good Fortune Prayer Mat really was invincible . Even his own Five Elements Flying Swords cultivated to the limit would be unable to face it . Since any spiritual power magic weapon would be destroyed by the Good Fortune Prayer Mat, Su Xing remembered the Ghost’s Godsbane .
When the time came, he would at least have some room to fight .
“Actually, Lord Husband need not exhaust himself like this . If we Sisters work together, no one will be able to harm Lord Husband . ” Wu Siyou’s gentle tone made Su Xing’s heart bubble with warmth .
“I know, but in any case, I can’t not do anything . ” He absolutely could not let his hands be tied . This was not Su Xing’s style .
Wu Siyou grunted . She asked this only to let Su Xing know that the Harm Star was capable of protecting her man .
“Selling steamed buns desu!!”
A delicate voice floated down the street .
Su Xing and Wu Siyou walked over . Like usual, they found a place to sit down and ordered several steamed buns . After coming to Kyoto, this Koito’s steamed bun booth had become the place Su Xing frequently rested at . On one hand, he enjoyed Kyoto’s culture, and on the other, he could listen for surrounding intelligence .
“Koito specially made this for you two . Fresh out of the steamer desuyo . ” The girl’s adorably large eyes brimmed with anticipation .
Speaking with her a little while, Su Xing took a bite . The little loli’s handiwork was extremely good . He wondered how this steamed bun trap was made . It immediately dissolved upon entering his mouth, and a warmth flowed into his heart, as if he had been reborn .
As he ate, Su Xing saw that Wu Siyou was a bit preoccupied, “Siyou, what’s the matter?”
“Nothing . ” Wu Siyou put away her gaze .
Su Xing glanced at Koito, and then back at Siyou: “These past couple days, I’ve noticed you seem to dislike Koito?”
“No, and Your Servant cannot put it into words either . Your Servant feels that she is not very simple at all . ” Wu Siyou’s brow locked tight . No one had ever made the Pilgrim feel uncomfortable, and ever since they encountered this seemingly innocuous Koito in Kyoto, her heart always had a sort of unshakable unease .
Su Xing recalled the powerful presence that was lurked hidden from that day . Afterwards, Su Xing had tried to tail Koito, but he always lost track of her, making Su Xing considerably depressed . In the end, seeing that this little loli truly only had interest in selling steamed buns and baked cakes, he gave up his pursuit .
Speaking of Koito, Su Xing also remembered another little loli .
That ranked twenty-seventh Fulfullment Star, the buxom Zhu Manxiang . He wondered how that little loli she contracted with in the Falling Blossom Ghost Kingdom was doing now .
Just as Su Xing and Wu Siyou were appreciating the sakura .
Suddenly, the sound of hoofbeats came from outside the city gates . Several chariots swiftly sped by along the main avenue, and the surrounding commoners fled like birds . The chariots approached directly in this direction, and the man aboard shouted: “Move aside, move aside . ”
Just as the chariot was about to knock into Koito’s setup, Su Xing’s Divine Intent moved, and his spiritual power diffused .
The bellowing steeds immediately became timid under his spiritual power, turning more docile than rabbits . The samurai on the chariot had been about to angrily curse when he suddenly spotted Su Xing . His complexion changed, and he stared blankly at Su Xing, and even his breathing became extremely cautios .
Large beads of sweat slid down his forehead, and surprisingly, not one of the several samurai dared to say a word . A Supervoid Cultivator’s spiritual might was very powerful . A thought alone was enough to make these unruly samurai perish here .
Su Xing retracted his gaze and restrained his presence . He did not plan on doing anything else .
The samurai of the bakufu returned to their senses but were terrified . They rushed in endless panic towards Kyoto’s imperial city . Only after they were several hundred meters away did they turn their heads back for a glance .
“Eh, I heard the Tokugawa Clan this time is preparing to enter Kyoto to replace the Empress . ”2
“The bakufu has already issued several statements of emergency . It seems war is inevitable again . ”
