My messenger is a little fox

This is the terrifying thing about the spiritual link. When Li Yu launched an attack countdown on several people, their cooperation was basically seamless. Moreover, after Li Yu broke away from the battle circle, he quickly prepared a rain of icicles for Masanobu Kaneda.

It was too late for Kaneda Masanobu to hide anymore, so he could only try his best to condense the black energy on the Yagami Sword into a shield in front of him. The next moment, a large number of attacks hit the black shield like a rainstorm from all directions.

The Night God Sword is indeed one of the top eight divine weapons, and its own black energy is even more strange and powerful. When the shield was deformed, it only made a small "pop" sound, and after enduring this storm, Still exists.

Li Yu and the five of them all looked at the black shield that had returned to its original shape after being tortured in shock. If such attacks were ineffective, they would have to think of ways to consume the opponent's spiritual power.

Fortunately, things were not as bad as several people expected. When the black shield was removed, a bloody figure was revealed inside. It's just that the guy named Kaneda Masanobu disappeared, replaced by a woman, a woman wearing the clothes of Kaneda Masanobu before, with a broken mask on her face, and she couldn't tell her age.

"The broken mask is the Thousand-Headed Mask. It seems that this person used it to disguise himself."

Li Yu recognized the mask on the woman's face, and he felt a sense of déjà vu to this woman.

"Brother Li, I don't know why, but this person gives me a sense of familiarity, but no one I know is like this." Asakura Nako said with a worried voice.

"Who are you?" Aso Yoshie also felt that something was unusual and asked aloud.

The woman wearing the mask lowered her head and said nothing since the black shield was broken. Until Li Yu impatiently tried to hit an ice pick, but the ice pick passed through the woman, and the woman gradually turned into a A black shadow disappeared into the night.

At this time, the five people were dumbfounded. A large living person actually disappeared in front of their eyes, and no one felt any fluctuations in spiritual power.

"Does the Night God Sword have such a skill?"

Li Yu ran to the place where the woman disappeared to check, and several other people gathered around her. No one was willing to accept such a result.

"It's a bit like the rumored Dark Night God Escape, but none of the three previous masters, including Masami, have discovered this ability." Aso Yoshie said a little unsure.

Dark Night God Escape?

What kind of bullshit skill is that! Li Yu didn't remember that this skill was included in his works.

Li Yu concentrated his perception ability to the extreme and scanned the surroundings bit by bit like a radar. The woman's aura was indeed gone, and only a few undead sea clansmen were still struggling in the distance.

Li Yu didn't pay any attention to the desires of those sea tribesmen, and sat slumped on the ground, suddenly feeling the urge to drink. Asakura Nako also gave up searching and sat down next to Li Yu.

After a while, Aso Yoshie and the other three sat down near the two of them, but the atmosphere was so dull that it was almost solid.

"This person seems to be very familiar with me. Except for Ahri's newly developed Ice Mirror Prism, she knows all about my abilities. She deals with them in the most standard way every time, which makes me feel aggrieved. feel."

"If it's just swordsmanship, it can be explained by her understanding of Heart Sword Technique, but for the skill Heart Sword Technique, it's impossible to predict what kind of skill it is, but she knows what skills I will use almost every time. This is not just a matter of research. I can do it with the image of me in the trial field. This requires actually fighting me, memorizing the flow of spiritual power when I use different skills, and then using the Heart Sword Technique's perception of the flow of spiritual power to predict my next step. Take action." After a long time, Li Yu said with a solemn expression.

"The only king-level spiritual masters I have fought with since I arrived at Fuso are Takeda Junichi, Takada Yoko, and an old man named Iwai from the six northern counties. Takeda Junichi will definitely be fine. Old Iwai's energy and blood have declined, so..."

"This person is definitely not Master Takada! Master Takada is dead. This is absolutely true." Yoshie Aso interrupted Li Yu and said, "I also have a feeling that I have seen this person somewhere, but it is definitely not the case. Master Takada, let alone the other two divine sons of the temple."

"I don't have any feelings for this person, but I can confirm that she is definitely not the three gods. I used to come into contact with the three adults often. If they were wearing masks, I would be able to recognize them." Keiyoko then said, using The sword miko also agreed with Keiyoko's words.

"Nako, you said this person also feels familiar to you, can you recall who it is?" Li Yu couldn't help but asked with some concern when he saw Nako Asakura sitting there with a frown on her face and a depressed look on her face.

Nako Asakura nodded slowly, her face full of pain and said: "Brother Li, do you think this person really killed Masami? But why did she kill Masami? Was it just to grab the Night God Sword? Why did she want to Do this?"

Li Yu was speechless, and after a while, Aso Yoshie sighed and said: "Junior Sister Nako, from what this person said, it seems that he has a lot of grudges against the Shrine. If you imagine this matter as a retaliation against the Shrine, it will make sense."

Li Yu nodded. This person was most likely the murderer of Takeda Masami. The abnormality of the Son of Life may also have been caused by her. Her actions not only caused Jingu to completely lose the Yagami Sword, but also made Jingu responsible for murdering Takeda. Masami's crime directly led to the break between the imperial court and the Shrine, causing the Shrine to suffer heavy losses.

Besides the imperial court, the biggest beneficiaries of this matter are the three small factions in the temple, including the Zhuzhao faction. Among them, the only one who can make me feel familiar is...

Just when he thought of being the master of the Ping Temple and the old temple, Li Yu shook his head and rejected it again.

First of all, the strength is not up to par. There are no king-level masters in the Dangping Temple. Otherwise, they would not have been bullied by the Changge Temple and almost lost the inheritance;

Secondly, the time did not match up. When Takeda Masami was killed, the old palace master was in retreat at the Dangping Temple. How could he have traveled to the new imperial city thousands of miles away to commit the murder?

Again, the age does not match up. No matter how you look at this person tonight, he is much younger than the old palace master with white hair and a bit of rickets;

Fourth, the motive is not sufficient. You must know that Takeda Masami was a great benefactor of the Danghei Temple at that time. With her presence, both the Eighth Prince and Takeda Junichi would fully support the Candlelight System. The Danghei Temple only had to wait for the court to deal with the storm. If you win, the benefits you will reap will definitely be greater than now.

At that moment, Li Yu told a few people about his thoughts, and everyone was silent again. However, Asakura Nako's expression relaxed a lot.

I don’t know how long it took, but there was a sound of horse hooves in the distance, indicating that the support team from Kanazawa City had arrived.
