Chapter 666 – King’s Blood

　　Only the Banezu Sword Master could draw the Banezu Sword, these were the original words that Amamiya Haruhide had told Lin Qiye.

　　And it was indeed true.

　　Lin Qiye looked at the [Black Rope] that was already sheathed in his hand and couldn’t help but be in a bit of a trance.

　　He was considered …… to have become the blade master of the [Black Rope]?

　　That simple?

　　For some reason, at this moment, Lin Qiye suddenly had a feeling of “this knife is so random.”……

　　Putting the [Black Rope] into its sheath, Lin Qiye took the [Mystic Pupil] handed over by Uncle Kyousuke, he coughed lightly and put his palm on the hilt of the blade ……

　　Uncle Kyousuke appeared to be standing there calmly, but in reality, he had already begun to panic inwardly as he stared intently at the [Mystic Pupil] in Lin Qiye’s hand and gulped unnoticeably.

　　Lin Qiye’s palm fired.

　　Clank-!

　　The [Mystic Pupil] was similarly sheathed by half an inch.

　　Lin Qiye froze.

　　Uncle Kyousuke froze as well.

　　Blade Soul Xiao Jin similarly froze.

　　”Well ……,” Lin Qiye spoke with some uncertainty, “Did I pull it out too fast? It hasn’t reacted yet? Should I pluck it again?”

　　Lin Qiye inserted the [Mystic Pupil] into its sheath once more, pondered for two seconds, and pulled it out once more!

　　Clank-!

　　The blade came out of the sheath smoothly without the slightest obstruction.

　　Lin Qiye: ……

　　Uncle Kyousuke’s eyes had completely changed when he looked at Lin Qiye, an unprecedented shock surfaced in his eyes as he looked at the two long knives that were sheathed:

　　”King’s blood? How could you possibly have king’s blood as well?”

　　If one were to draw only one Banezu Blade, one could still attribute the reason to the [Black Rope]’s Blade Soul choosing its master too casually, but to draw two consecutively, it was a completely different story.

　　The blade souls of the Banezu knives are all very lonely and proud, and it is impossible for a situation to arise where two handles share the same master, unless …… the person who drew the knives possesses the blood of a king.

　　Bewilderment surfaced in Lin Qiye’s eyes.

　　How did he have king blood?

　　Could it be that he still had some kind of blood relationship with Yuzuri Kurosetsu?

　　It couldn’t be! His parents were both authentic Da Xia people, and by all accounts, Japan had already fallen into the mist a hundred years ago, so it was absolutely impossible for there to be any blood relationship between him and Yuzuri Kurosetsu.

　　Then where did his king’s blood come from?

　　Lin Qiye remembered that Amamiya Haruhui had said that king’s blood could be acquired later in life, or at least the king’s blood on Yuzuri Kurotetsugu’s body was……. If that was the case, then that would mean that he himself had inadvertently acquired king’s blood at some point in time?

　　What exactly is this so-called “king’s blood”? Why does it have the ability to control all the Banezu swords?

　　”You’ve been to that relic in Hokkaido?” Uncle Kyousuke frowned at Lin Qiye as if he thought of something.

　　”No, never been there.”

　　Lin Qiye shook his head decisively.

　　Uncle Kyousuke fell into deep thought ……

　　He thought for a long time, and other than Lin Qiye having been to that relic in Hokkaido, he really couldn’t think of any other possibilities, so he shook his head helplessly, and looked at Lin Qiye with a complicated gaze, as if he was looking at a monster.

　　”I thought that you were just more talented in terms of cowboys, I didn’t realize that the secrets in your body were deeper than what I thought ……”

　　Uncle Kyousuke said as he extended his palm towards Lin Qiye.

　　”What do you want?” Lin Qiye raised an eyebrow.

　　The corner of Uncle Kyousuke’s mouth twitched slightly, “Give me back my sword! I just plucked it for you, I didn’t say I’d give it to you ……”

　　Lin Qiye tsked, seemingly with some reluctance.

　　”…… “Uncle Kyousuke sighed, “Don’t worry, I want these two knives because I have some things to do, when I’m done, both of these knives will be given to you, okay?”

　　”It’s a deal.”

　　Lin Qiye returned the [Mystic Pupil] and [Black Rope] to Uncle Kyousuke.

　　Uncle Kyousuke hung the two knives back on his waist and looked at Lin Qiye for a long time in thought, as if he had made up his mind about something, he slowly spoke:

　　”Asahina, there is something that I would like to ask you ……”

　　The rain pattered down on the pavement, splashing a splash, and Amamiya Haruhide weakly collapsed against the wall and slowly sat down.

　　At this moment, his white hair had once again returned to black, and the divine charm emanating from his eyes had gradually disappeared, as he sheathed the [Rain Avalanche] in his hand, and propped his hands on the ground, panting heavily.

　　He had overdrawn too much of his lifespan, so that after his hair returned to black, a bit of gray had appeared on his temples, and his face was even more haggard.

　　With that slash, he chopped the yellow-robed oracle into two pieces, and the paper crane had already stunned everyone around him, and within this area, there were no more objects that the yellow-robed oracle was able to divert ……

　　Unsurprisingly, he had successfully killed the Yellow-robed Oracle.

　　”Brother Amamiya.”

　　Yuzurina put the [Thousand Cranes] away and ran quickly to Amamiya Haruhide’s side with his sword in his arms, his eyes full of worry, “Are you hurt? Should I call for an ambulance ……”

　　Just halfway through her words, Yuzurina froze in place as if she had seen something.

　　On the display screen in the far corner of the alley, the photo of her own sword was neatly placed in the center, the bright yellow warning stripes rotating around her, appearing particularly prominent and obvious under the illumination of the neon sign, and at the top of her head, there was also a large red marking of the word “Evil Person”.

　　”[Fierce ghost] level wanted criminal, Yuzurina, reward ……”

　　That’s right ……

　　Right now, she was a [Fierce Ghost] class wanted criminal, just like Amamiya Haruhide.

　　Wanted criminals call for an ambulance, and the only thing that comes is likely to be a heavy armed vehicle with a large number of police officers ……

　　Yuzurina looked at her own wanted person in the distance in silence, pursing her lips slightly as a wave of bitterness flooded her heart.

　　”I’m fine, I’m just a little tired.” Amamiya Haruhide lowered her head and said weakly.

　　Buzz–!

　　A low engine sound came from the distance, Yuzurina turned her head to look, only to see a black sedan at the end of the street coming in a hurry, the brightly shining headlights pierced through the dark night, illuminating Yuzurina squinting her eyes.

　　Subconsciously, she gripped her hand on the hilt of her sword and got up to stand in front of the fallen Amamiya Haruhide, her eyes filled with determination and stubbornness.

　　The vehicle slowly stopped in front of her, and three figures stepped out of the vehicle one after another, at the same time when she saw their appearance, Yuzurina’s body shook, and the corners of her eyes couldn’t control the tears that sprang up.

　　”Brother Seven Nights!”

　　Yuzurina flew into Lin Qiye’s arms and hugged him tightly, her eyes red, like a child who had suffered a lot.

　　Lin Qiye first froze when he saw the long white sword in her hand, then turned his head to look at Uncle Kyousuke behind himself, whose face surfaced with bitterness.

　　”After you guys left, brother Xiao Jin and I have been being chased by the oracle envoys, brother Amamiya came and got injured …… you guys, where did you all go ah?” Yuzurina buried her head into Lin Qiye’s arms and spoke in a muffled voice.

　　Lin Qiye stroked her head and let out a long sigh.

　　”I think it’s better for you to ask your father yourself about these things …….”

　　Yuzurina froze, she slowly raised her head, those reddish eyes looking towards Uncle Kyousuke who was standing not far away ……
