Eighth Crown

There is an office building in a prosperous area in the center of Guanbuzi close to the southern district.

Pingcang Gongping carried the briefcase, walked out of the office building, walked along the stairs to the underground garage, his face always had a look of despair.

The plan to plot his brother's estate fails.

Although his brother and sister-in-law did die as he wished, their son did not die at the hands of the Liangyi family as planned.

As a result, the inheritance was sentenced to his brother's son, Pingcang Guangliu.

He planned to inherit the estate, and his plan to use the house to borrow from the bank was completely unsuccessful. In order to continue the studio he ran, he was even more indebted during this period of time.

The huge pressure on his shoulders made him almost unbearable, and he planned to file for bankruptcy.

But he can't apply for bankruptcy yet. Once he goes bankrupt, the huge debt will be enough to crush him in an instant. At that time, he will really have to commit suicide and apologize, and even his wife and daughter will definitely be implicated.

"Oh, is there really no way to raise money..."

Bakura Kyouping rubbed his hair irritably, opened the door, and sat in the cab.

"Huh? Why can't it start? Is the engine also broken?"

Yingcang Gongping put the key in, but he did not feel the slight tremor when the engine rang, which made him frown fiercely, and slapped the steering wheel impatiently, causing the whistle to sound inadvertently.

"Crack!"

Standing behind the wall not far away, Liu Xia glanced at Uikura Kyouhei indifferently, then turned around and walked out of the underground garage, pressing the detonation button in his hand.

"Boom--!"

Suddenly, a rumbling sound like a spring thunder sounded in the underground garage.

In the suddenly rising fire, a hot wave shook the vehicles parked side by side not far away.

Pingcang Gongping didn't even utter a cry of exclamation and scream, and was buried in the sea of ​​​​fire.

"No matter what your difficulties, let you do anything to my family, but that has nothing to do with me."

Liu Xia put on a hood, and when the surrounding people were attracted by the roar of the underground garage, he lined up the crowd and left the office building.

"The crimes you committed will not be erased because of your hardships. If you want to blame it, you should blame yourself for thinking that you shouldn't."

Liu Xia walked farther and farther, leaving the gradually noisy area.

"In this way, my obligations are also completed, and I will no longer owe you anything."

Whether it was directly killing them, Shirai Chun Lio, or indirectly killing their magician and Uigura Kyouhei, now, they have all died in his hands.

Unlike the parents who were so boring that they couldn't even fulfill their duties of raising, Liu Xia had already fulfilled all her duties as a son of man.

From now on, Uigura Guangliu completely disappeared from this world, and was replaced by a killer named Cangamime Ryuka.

…………

Night came again.

Unlike the crescent moon a month ago, the moon in the darkness today is a new moon, and the entire moon has become a straight line. People with poor eyesight may not be able to see it at all, and even a little moonlight is difficult to shed.

Under this kind of moonlight, the whole earth looks very dim. If the neon lights are not turned on, there must be few people willing to go out in such a night.

In the park next to the apartment building, Liu Xia was practicing swordsmanship.

He was holding two wooden knives in his hands, and his feet were separated back and forth, and with a uniform and gentle breathing rhythm, he waved the two wooden knives in his hands over and over again.

It's not the swordsmanship of "Tiantian First Class". According to Musashi, there is no fixed swordsmanship routine for "Two Ten First Class". For 【Two Ten First Class】, the most important thing is always to use the coordination of both hands. Sex, let the two knives be like the yin and yang sides of Tai Chi, complementing each other, you have me and I have you.

He is now practicing the nine-style basic swordsmanship.

Tang bamboo that is split straight from top to bottom.

The cassock cut diagonally from right to left.

The reverse cassock that is slashed diagonally from left to right.

Left crosscut from left to right crosscut.

Right crosscut from right to left crosscut.

Cut from left to right.

Cut right from right to left.

A headwind from bottom to top.

A straight forward thrust.

This is the nine-style basic swordsmanship in the swordsmanship of the island country.

[Er Tian First Class] Although there are unique tricks like 'Xiao Tian Chong' and 'Big Tian Xiang' to press the bottom of the box, and there are also fierce postures like 'Fifth Stance', there is actually no fixed swordsmanship routine at all. One swing of the sword is to use the nine-style basic swordsmanship back and forth.

Or, the current girl Musashi has not yet reached the point where she can create all the moves of the [Two Ten First Class]. After all, she herself is still a long way from the realm of the great swordsman.

For the current Liu Xia, in order to maximize the power of [Two Tian First Class], in addition to strengthening the coordination between his hands, he can only increase the basic practice and practice all nine basic swordsmanships. Muscle memory is the only way to cultivate the instinct of the body.

While Liu Xia was practicing silently in the park, a snow-white figure appeared outside the park.

I don't know when it appeared, there is no sound or movement at all, it seems to be integrated with the whole world, if you don't see it with your own eyes, you can't detect her figure at all.

She has short hair that falls down just to cover her ears. Although her facial features are exactly the same as those of the two ceremonies, she has a neutral beauty that attracts both genders, but at this moment, because of her overly gentle expression, her whole person looks unusually gentle. and reserved.

She was wearing a white kimono with sleeves and folded her hands in front of her. She had a faint smile on her face, and her bottomless eyes were looking at Liu Xia who was practicing with tenderness.

She didn't mean to disturb Liu Xia, she just stood there silently while Liu Xia practiced basic swordsmanship over and over again.

It was not until Liu Xia's practice was over that she slowly raised her footsteps and walked into the park.

"Good evening, see you again."

With a gentle and loving smile on her face, as if she regarded everything in the world as her own child, she walked to Liu Xia's side, as if acquaintances met on the side of the road, and slapped him very casually. hello.

"------"

Liu Xia turned around silently, her amber pupils stared directly at the woman, her whole body remained silent, her muscles tightened slightly.

"Don't be so nervous, I have no ill will towards you."

[Two rituals] With a chuckle, her words and voice seemed to contain magic power that was enough to heal all pains, but with just one ordinary sentence, the alertness that rose in Liu Xia's heart was calmed down.

"I know you have a lot of doubts in your heart, and you don't trust me very much, but it doesn't matter, I will accept everything you have about me, whether it's suspicion or vigilance."

[Two ceremonies] She spoke softly as if she could forgive all of Liu Xia's sins, with a motherly smile on her face.

"According to what you said, that is, I have the obligation to accommodate you."
