After finishing speaking, Qingdeng ducked to the side of the person and released his sword light——

Peng!

The blow was released in an instant, and the man was thrown away. The power was amazing, and he hit the rock wall above his head.

Suddenly, everything became extremely quiet.

Both the two girls and the men in black women's clothing couldn't help but stop what they were doing at this moment and stared blankly at Qing Deng who was still in the posture of drawing the sword.

Looking at their companions who had been blown away and who were now breathing more air than taking in air, the sentient beings in black mother-clothes had almost the same thought: Hey, hey, hey, isn't it... Using a knife to blow away a big living person... This

What a terrifying power it is?

As for Souji and Zuo Nazi, their pretty faces were filled with pure surprise.

"Tachibana-kun...?"

The chief murmured.

Both the General Secretary and Zuo Nazi are very familiar with Qingdeng's demeanor and behavior.

Whenever there is anything strange about Qingdeng, they will be able to detect it immediately.

Therefore, the two girls clearly felt at this moment - underneath Qingdeng's calm appearance, there were emotions as hot and boiling as magma.

Whoosh!

Qingdeng swung the knife with all his strength, making a sharp "swish" sound.

The blood attached to the blade splashed down and turned into a neat "plum blossom branch" on the ground.

"Who else?"

Qingden's wolf-like eyes followed the blade and swept across the faces filled with fear.

"They're popping up one after another... Come on, come as many as you want."

Qingdeng lowered his body, held the knife with both hands, and took a stance.

"Those who want to live, just run away."

"If you want to die, just go with us!"

"Bring your horses over here!"

A strange brilliance burst out from the depths of Qingdeng's eyes like a flame.

…

…

Platycodon Mountain, somewhere——

"Well...the stars are so beautiful tonight."

Rakshasa stood with his hands behind his back, looking up at the stars.

"Nue, come and take a look. The weather is very good tonight. You can see all the stars in the sky clearly."

Nue, who was cleaning the bow, shook his head.

"Lord Rakshasa, I'm sorry, I don't know how to appreciate it."

"Tsk! You are just as boring as Otakemaru! If Orochi-sama and Shuten-douji were here, they would have happily brought bottles of wine, stared at the stars with me, and drank to their heart's content."

After speaking, Rakshasa softly chanted as if he had some realization:

"The west wind blows the old Dongting waves, and Mr. Xiang's hair turns white all night long. When he is drunk, he doesn't know that the sky is in the water, and his bed is filled with clear dreams that fill the sky."

"Lord Rakshasa, I'm sorry, this subordinate has never studied and doesn't understand very well."

"I didn't read it to you!"

After glancing at Nue angrily, Rakshasa turned his gaze back to the starry sky above his head.

"Watch the cherry blossoms at night in spring, the stars in summer, the full moon in autumn, and the first snow in winter. The ancients do not deceive me. Ah, although it is not summer now, but winter. When summer comes this year, I will rent a boat and watch the

Boating on the Kanda River, drinking wine and stargazing, when the mood comes, write a haiku or a willow tree; when the wine gets stronger, I fall asleep, and sleep until I wake up naturally... Hum, this is really exciting."

"Lord Rakshasa, please forgive me for saying bluntly: Indulging in pleasure is a taboo for our lofty ideals."

"Oops! I know!"

The Rakshasa lamented and raised his hands in a gesture of surrender.

"I don't eat, drink and have fun every day. I only relax occasionally - this level of self-entertainment isn't called hedonism, right?"

Rakshasa paused for a moment, then let out a sigh of relief.

"The whole party is being punished, and the people who like elegance are as few as morning stars. It really makes me feel lonely..."

"After all, we are people with lofty ideals, not men of letters."

"Hey, I know!"

Rakshasa raised his hands again in a gesture of surrender.

"Nue, you are just like my mother-in-law. I even suspect that Orochi-sama ordered Shuten Doji to lend you to me so that you can supervise my lifestyle."

"...Lord Rakshasa, in fact, the reason why Lord Orochi sent me to Kanto is not only to provide you with assistance, but also for me to encourage you from the side."

"oh?"

Although Rakshasa raised his eyebrows, there was no hint of surprise on his face.

"Lord Rakshasa, Lord Orochi is not very satisfied with your recent performance..."

"Not very satisfied? Why? Is there anything I haven't done well enough recently?"

"Lord Orochi, I think your efficiency is too slow. The layout of Kanto is related to the success of our overthrow, and your recent results are lackluster."

"This...well, I really hope Lord Orochi can understand my difficulties."

Rakshasa shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"Kanto is the headquarters of the Edo shogunate, and the Nanki faction, the Hitotsubashi faction and other forces are intertwined."

"While I am laying out the layout of Kanto and advancing the plan, I have to remain cautious at all times."

"The power of our law-enforcement party in Kanto is not as powerful as that in Kansai."

"If it attracts the close attention of the shogunate too early, or provokes some difficult and ruthless people...such as the 'Sword Master' Seiichiro Tanani of the Kōsho, the 'Seven Feet Unparalleled' Oishi Susumu, or the Chiba family's

Even I, the strongest Chiba Eijiro in Edo, cannot escape unscathed."

"Unless Otakemaru and Shuten Doji come in person, who can suppress Chiba Eijiro and those monsters from the Kōbususu?"

"In this environment where there are constraints everywhere, I can achieve the results I have achieved now. I think I have done a pretty good job and have lived up to Orochi-sama's expectations of me."

As soon as Rakshasa finished speaking, Nue said calmly:

"Lord Rakshasa, I completely understand your difficulties. But... you should also know that Lord Orochi doesn't like to hear people complain."

"...of course I know."

Rakshasa lowered his head, and a large amount of cold sweat broke out between his delicate brows.

While Rakshasa remained silent, Nue continued silently:

"What's more, Lord Orochi may not agree with your complaint."

"In terms of the difficulty of the situation and the complexity of the environment, is there any place in Japan that can be compared to Gyeonggi where Lord Orochi and Lord Otakemaru are personally in charge?"

"The imperial court in Kyoto, the giant merchants in Osaka, the lords of the Western Kingdom, the followers of Oshio Heihachiro, the Kyoto Shogunate and Osaka Castle in the shogunate, and the troublesome Gourd House..."

"What's more, according to the latest information, Ogata Ittosai is now living in seclusion in Gyeonggi."

Rakshasa's vagina suddenly shrank.

"Ogata Ittosai is in Gyeonggi? Is this information credible?"

"This is the information that Tamamo-sama personally searched out, and it should be credible. However, it is still unclear where Ogata Ittosai lives in seclusion. Orochi-sama has sent a search team to Kyoto, and he specially ordered Lord Otakemaru to personally

Lead the team."

"Otakemaru? Haha, this mission is quite suitable for him. If you are lucky enough to find Ogata Ittousai, and then unfortunately have a conflict with him... the only person who can handle this situation is Otakemaru."

"Lord Rakshasa, I think so too. It's just that... although Lord Otakemaru is no longer a mortal, he should not be Ogata Ittosai's opponent at the moment, right?"

"Of course. But he should still be able to escape from Ogata Ittousai's sword...such a thing."

"...That's true."
