Chapter 240
Chapter 240
"Since there's a time to abandon someone important to me, I won't let something like this happen that requires me to abandon someone."
Yu Xi really learned his lesson this time.
She had originally thought that no matter how strong the sword spirits were, there was a limit to their power, and she had never expected to encounter an overly powerful being like the Demon Slayer.
She could only barely escape using the moves Luo Chunxi taught her personally.
After hearing Yu Xi's serious analysis of the failure, Chumo was a little surprised. He had thought that Yu Xi was young and would not be so obedient, but he did not expect that she could draw inferences from one instance.
But soon, it thought of something and retracted the surprise in its eyes.
"alike."
It murmured.
Yu Xi didn't hear the sound clearly. She made sure that Fu Guang was fine before she said, "Is the crack on Fu Guang's sword an illusion?"
"Hmm." The demon slayer touched his arm. Although covered by clothes, he could still feel his arm breaking under his palm. "I am the demon slayer, a sword that can create the most powerful illusions. No matter the size or race, no one I target can escape."
From the moment Yu Xi saw Fu Guang shatter, he had actually entered the illusion of exorcism. Because he was in the illusion, he could not hear Fu Guang's voice at all and thought that Fu Guang was dead.
Yu Xi didn't expect that the demon hunter never hurt Fu Guang from beginning to end.
Her gaze fell on the two holes in the demon slayer's abdomen and chest that hadn't yet healed. She paused for a moment and hurriedly asked, "What about your injuries..."
"It's also an illusion. I just need to test you to see if you are qualified to leave me." The demon slayer smiled carelessly. Although its face was now rotten and shattered, it still had some stunning beauty.
"You can't hurt me. My master named me the Exorcist. Besides the illusions I can create that even demons can't escape, ordinary demonic energy and devilish energy can't hurt me at all. But... your sister is really going to die."
Yu Xi felt a little relieved when he heard the first part, but when he heard the second part, he suddenly became nervous again.
This time, without waiting for her to speak, the spiritual energy that was constantly emanating from the demon slayer quickly gathered and all flowed towards Fu Guang.
Mixed among these spiritual auras is a circle of fine orange-red, and the light ring gently surrounds the floating light, like the crushed setting sun, or the new morning and evening.
Yu Xi could feel the vibration of the floating light becoming stronger and stronger, but the vitality of the demon-slaying power was becoming weaker and weaker.
She didn't care about anything else and hurriedly grabbed the demon slayer's hand: "What are you doing——"
"You need a sword that matches you, and this sword is just right." The Demon Slayer held her soft hand and said slowly, "I am old, my master is waiting for me, and you are still my sister, so I cannot be your sword."
"Your master?" Yu Xi's attention had been on Fu Guang before, but only then did he notice that the demon slayer mentioned its master from beginning to end.
However, the place where the sword spirit resides cannot be home to a sword spirit with an owner for a long time.
In order to prevent the monks from taking away too many swords, the powerful people at that time created a barrier that not only restricted the entry of magic weapons, but also restricted the entry of monks with sword spirits.
If a sword spirit with a master enters here, it will gradually rust and rot, and eventually completely lose its original shape.
Yu Xi suddenly looked at the blade of the Demon-Slaying Sword. The part that was originally still slightly white was now completely rotten.
Is it because of her?
Because she came here, it accelerated the death of the demon slayer?
"It's not because of you."
Sensing Yu Xi's emotions, the Demon Slayer emphasized, "Remember, it's not because of you. It's just that my mission has been completed."
At this time, the demon slayer had transferred all of its spiritual power. After it finished speaking, its arms began to shatter, followed by its shoulders, head, and finally its body completely turned into earth.
Yu Xi's palms soon lost their cold touch, leaving only the yellow sand that rubbed her hands. She didn't expect that just when she cleared up her misunderstanding about the demon exorcist, the demon exorcist would disappear.
"elder sister!"
She hurriedly tried to slay the demon, but all she encountered was dissipated earth.
In the end, she only heard the voice of the demon that had not yet dissipated, but was full of relief:
"My master asked me to wait for someone here, for my sister, who might be a half-demon or a pure demon. Now I have finally arrived."
The demon slayer loves its master very much.
Its owner also likes it very much and treats it like a daughter. He also told it that it will have a younger sister.
But it will take a long, long time to wait.
It slayed demons and monsters with its master, watched its master become the strongest, watched its master fall, and watched its master's final instructions to it, hoping that it would survive, erase its memory, and return to the sword tomb.
The owner said that its next owner would be its sister.
It likes its sister.
But how could it bear to leave its owner?
It doesn't want to forget the memory of its owner.
As long as I can fulfill my master's wish, what does it matter if I am imprisoned for ten thousand years?
One day, it will see its owner again.
