Only the master of Huojin Sword can draw out the Huojin Sword. These are the exact words that Amamiya Haruki told Lin Qiye.

And this is indeed the case.

Lin Qiye looked at the unsheathed [Black Rope] in his hand and couldn't help feeling a little dazed.

Does this mean that he has become... the master of the [Black Rope] sword?

So simple?

For some reason, at this moment, Lin Qiye suddenly felt that "this knife is so casual"...

Putting the [Black Rope] into the sheath, Lin Qiye took the [Mysterious Eyes] handed to him by Uncle Kyosuke. He coughed lightly and placed his palm on the hilt...

Uncle Kyosuke seemed to be standing there calmly, but he was actually starting to panic inside. He stared at the [Mystical Eyes] in Lin Qiye's hand and swallowed his saliva imperceptibly.

Lin Qiye exerted force with his palm.

Clang——!!

[Mysterious Eyes] also comes out of the sheath half an inch.

Lin Qiye was stunned.

Uncle Kyosuke was also stunned.

Sword Spirit Xiao Jin was also stunned.

"Hmm..." Lin Qiye said uncertainly, "Did I pull it out too quickly? It hasn't reacted yet? How about I pull it out again?"

Lin Qiye inserted [Mysterious Eye] into the sheath again, pondered for two seconds, and pulled it out again!

clang——!

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

Lin Qiye: ...

Uncle Kyosuke's eyes had completely changed when he looked at Lin Qiye. He looked at the two unsheathed swords, and an unprecedented shock appeared in his eyes:

"Royal blood? How can you have royal blood?"

If only one Huojin sword was pulled out, the reason could be attributed to the sword spirit of [Black Rope] choosing its master too casually, but pulling out two swords in succession is a completely different story.

The sword spirits of the Huojin Swords are extremely aloof, and it is impossible for two of them to serve the same master, unless... the person who draws the sword has royal blood.

There was confusion in Lin Qiye's eyes.

How come he has royal blood?

Could it be that he has some blood relationship with Yuuri Kurozhe?

Impossible! Both his parents are native Daxia people, and it stands to reason that Japan had already fallen into the mist a hundred years ago. There is absolutely no blood relationship between him and Yuri Heizhe.

So where did his royal blood come from?

Lin Qiye remembered that Amemiya Haruki said that royal blood can be acquired later, at least that was the case with the royal blood in Yuuri Kurozhe... If that was the case, it meant that he himself had accidentally acquired royal blood at some point in time?

What exactly is this so-called "Royal Blood"? Why does it have the ability to control all the Huojin swords?

"Have you been to the ruins in Hokkaido?" Uncle Kyosuke seemed to have thought of something and looked at Lin Qiye with a frown.

"No, never."

Lin Qiye shook his head decisively.

Uncle Kyosuke fell into deep thought...

He thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't think of any other possibility except that Lin Qiye had visited the ruins in Hokkaido. He simply shook his head helplessly and looked at Lin Qiye with complicated eyes, as if he was looking at a monster.

"I thought you were just talented as a gigolo, but I didn't expect that your secrets were deeper than I thought..."

Uncle Kyosuke said as he stretched out his hand towards Lin Qiye.

"What do you want to do?" Lin Qiye raised his eyebrows.

Uncle Kyosuke's mouth twitched slightly, "Give the knife back to me! I just pulled it out for you, I didn't say I was giving it to you..."

Lin Qiye clicked his tongue, seeming a little reluctant.

"..." Uncle Kyosuke sighed, "Don't worry, I want these two swords because I have something to do. When I'm done, I'll give them to you, okay?"

"It's a deal."

Lin Qiye returned the [Mysterious Pupil] and [Black Rope] to Uncle Kyosuke.

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

"Qianyu, there is something I want to ask you..."

…

The rain dripped on the road, splashing water. Amemiya Haruki fell weakly against the wall and slowly sat down.

At this moment, his white hair had turned back to black again, and the charm in his eyes gradually disappeared. He sheathed the [Yubeng] in his hand, supported himself on the ground with both hands, and gasped heavily.

He had overdrawn his lifespan so much that after his hair had returned to black, his temples had already shown some gray, and his face looked extremely haggard.

With that strike, he cut the Yellow Robe Oracle into two pieces, and the paper cranes had knocked out everyone around them. Within this area, there was no one that the Yellow Robe Oracle could move to...

If nothing unexpected happened, he successfully killed the yellow-robed oracle.

"Brother Amamiya."

Yurina put away Chizuru, and ran to Amamiya Haruki with the knife in her arms, her eyes full of worry, "Are you injured? Do you want to call for help..."

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

On the display screen at the corner of the alley in the distance, the photo of herself drawing a sword was neatly placed in the center. Bright yellow warning strips were rotating around her, appearing particularly abrupt and obvious under the illumination of the neon sign. Above her head, the word "evil" was written in big red letters.

"A wanted criminal of the "Ghost" level, Yurina, reward..."

That’s right…

Now, she, like Amamiya Haruki, is a wanted criminal of the "Fierce Ghost" level.

If a wanted criminal calls for an ambulance, the only thing that will come is a heavily armed vehicle and a large number of police officers...

Yurina silently looked at her wanted poster in the distance, pursed her lips slightly, and felt bitter in her heart.

"I'm fine, just a little tired." Amamiya Haruki lowered his head and said weakly.

Buzz——!!

A low engine sound came from a distance. Yurina turned her head and saw a black car driving rapidly at the end of the street. The bright headlights pierced the dark night, making Yurina squint her eyes.

She subconsciously grasped her hand on the hilt of the knife, stood up and stood in front of the fallen Amamiya Haruki, her eyes full of determination and stubbornness.

The car slowly stopped in front of her, and three figures got out of the car one after another. When she saw their faces, Yurina's body trembled, and tears welled up in the corners of her eyes uncontrollably.

"Brother Qiye!"

Yurinaha threw herself into Lin Qiye's arms and hugged him tightly, her eyes red, like a child who had suffered a lot of grievances.

When Lin Qiye saw the white long sword in her hand, he was stunned at first, then turned to look at Uncle Kyosuke behind him, a bitter look appeared on the latter's face.

"After you left, Brother Xiao Jin and I were being hunted by the oracle. Brother Amemiya came and was injured again... Where did you all go?" Yurina buried her head in Lin Qiye's arms and spoke in a muffled voice.

Lin Qiye touched her head and sighed.

"I think, these things...you should ask your father yourself."

Yurina was stunned. She slowly raised her head and looked at Uncle Kyosuke who was standing not far away with her red eyes...
