So I became a witch

Chapter 120 The Four Gathered

"Damn it, listen to me!"

I secretly smacked my tongue.The luck in the misfortune is that the other party has not used any other abilities except for his superb swordsmanship. With his familiarity with Jingyueliu, he can barely parry him, but that's all.If I had known earlier, I should have been more cautious, but now that everything is said and done, instead of expecting an impossible miracle, it is better to think more about how to break the situation.

What to do, what to do, what to do...!

"Oops!" I blurted out.

Although I instinctively reacted to Jingyueliu, the opponent's left hand used a sword technique called Mingyueliu that I had never known before.Compared with Jingyueliu, which focuses on the mind, Mingyueliu seems to pay more attention to form and meaning, and this is what I lack.

No, I can't escape...!

"Hey, hey, what's going on? Didn't you clearly agree to deal with it tomorrow? Really, how do you plan to compensate me for the resentment that pulled someone who was sleeping soundly up at night?"

Starlight cuts through the darkness.

I stared blankly at the front, that familiar yet unfamiliar figure.The girl in a black windbreaker holds a long blade in both hands, facing the enemy's sword skills like a storm, but does not change her face at all, like a giant wall, perfectly blocking all attacks.

"Hmm, as expected of the legendary ancestor who was about to set foot in the realm of 'Tao'. Compared with the power 400 years ago, it seems to be more powerful... Well, although we are almost there." The girl giggled, tapped her toes, and avoided the sword wind by a tiny margin, stepped back slightly with her left foot, raised the sword flatly, and a flash of light flashed in her eyes.

that is……!

Quiet moon flow · Lunar eclipse.

Both sides made the same judgment at the same time, and the two hurricanes collided fiercely.One sword, one hundred swords, ten thousand swords... Countless sword shadows flashed in an instant, and the girl who entered in disorder completely resisted Yin Xingchen's double swords with only one sword blade, no, Even faintly above it.That is the highest realm that can only be reached if one devotes one's whole body and mind to one path of the sword.

After a crisp sound of "Dang", Yin Xingchen's twin swords were cut in two, and the girl took a step forward with her strength, sending the blades into the enemy's throat.

"No!" I shouted subconsciously. The girl who heard me seemed to realize something, and forcibly twisted her body to stop. Almost at the same time, countless black long swords fell from the sky, completely closing the gap between the girl and the shadow. All routes are blocked.

"Well, it's so dangerous, it's so, so it's so, this is Mingyue's first-class 'skill', and it's the move used by quite insidious guys like the rumors... Speaking of the kid over there, shouldn't it be Could it be the seal you touched? It's really strange. It stands to reason that no one can get close to the barrier here except the descendants of the Yueyin clan. You don't look like a child in the village. After all, is it Where did it come from?"

Faced with the girl's doubts, I chose to remain silent. After all, I didn't even know how I broke into this inexplicable place, saw inexplicable memories, and met inexplicable people.

"Well, forget it, it looks like that guy won't attack again in a while, can you tell me your name? Ah, by the way, my name is Ji Yingkong, call me 'Kong' That's enough." The girl smiled heartily.

... How could I forget.

Although I only got along for a short month, I left an indelible impression in my past life.If I hadn't met her, maybe I wouldn't be on the road I am on today.

It's just that the girl in front of me seems to be much smaller than what I remembered, which also made me unable to believe it until she spoke to confirm.Although it may also be due to the existence of memory filters, when I first met her, 12 years had passed.Over the past ten years, her appearance has hardly changed, and she is even younger. Even for a long-lived demon hunter, this is a relatively abnormal situation.

"Master..." I wanted to shout subconsciously.

"Master! It's true, you are messing around again." Another girl who messed up interrupted me with a sigh.She looks to be in her twenties, wearing plain clothes, her good figure can be seen to have undergone a considerable degree of training, and she is surrounded by a certain sharp sword force, which is the unique breath of a swordsman.

"I can't help it. After all, I have other things to do. If it wasn't because of the accident with that kid in the Luo family, I wouldn't have to hurry back."

"It's a good thing you can say such a thing, obviously you are also the heir of Jingyueliu."

"Hahaha, don't care, don't care."

Watching the scene of the two laughing and communicating, somewhere in my heart seemed to be slightly touched.I am afraid that the later female replaced the disciples I accepted in this world line where I did not meet the master.

... I have awakened early tomorrow, but why did my heart still ache when we actually met?

"I'm sorry, you two. It seems that there is no time for you to continue talking. After so many years, the power of the seal may have been eroded away, so I must ask the two of you for help to end all this."

Another figure broke into this strange space.After seeing the other person's appearance clearly, I subconsciously called out: "Sleeping Guan... sister? Why are you here?"

The other party obviously noticed my appearance, and also showed a surprised expression: "Luo Tianchen? Why are you here? It should be the start of school now, right?"

"In that case, there is no reason for Sister Sleeping Guan to be here, right?"

"...I asked for a leave of absence from school a month ago because of some personal reasons. If it was you, wouldn't it be... skipping class?" Sister Dorm's eyes suddenly became dangerous .

"No! In short, it's because of some... well, quite complicated situations. Compared with my affairs, I should pay more attention to the other side now!"

Facing intruders one after another, Yin Xingchen, who was across the river from us, didn't move at all. There was no expression on his face covered by the pitch-black material, and naturally he didn't know what she was thinking.

I didn't expect that the sleeping sister would not be in school a month ago, so it is understandable not to know what happened to me.But then again, what did she do during this month?Why are you with Master and the others?

Chapter 120 Five Swordsmanship

The three rooms I saw in the hotel where Su Zishen and I stayed, could it be the three of them?Judging from what Sister Sleeping Guan said, she should have known that there is a seal of the witch's heir, but how did she know?After all, I followed Ye Qianmo's memory fragments and worked so hard to get to this step, but I coincidentally with her.I don't believe it's a coincidence, unless...she, like me, is looking for information related to Ye Qianmo.

Although there are a lot of things I want to ask, but that is already a question after this.The first thing we need to do now is to completely calm down Yin Xingchen who has completely assimilated with the heir of the witch.Sister Sleeping Guan seemed to be aware of this, she retracted the doubts in her eyes, and said to me: "...Sorry, the next battle is not for you to participate in. Stay away for now, protect yourself, and wait until everything is over Then, let’s ask each other questions.”

I nodded, and now I really don't have the capital to participate in it, so I honestly ran to a remote corner behind the forest and hid.

The battlefield between the two sides started again, and the four of them seemed to move at the same time, waving their swords.This is a pure collision between weapons, the speed is so fast that even afterimages are hard to leave, only the sound of "bing pong" metal collisions echoes in the canyon.

No, it's not that they don't want to use the power of the stars, but that there is an enchantment that restrains all inexplicable powers, so they can only rely on this oldest method to fight in close combat.

Needless to say, the strength of the master, only one positive person can withstand most of the pressure from the pitch-black figure, and it seems that there is still room for it. I can't understand her situation; as for the senior sister (sister?) and the sleeping sister, they chose to attack from the left and right sides respectively. The talent is naturally astonishingly high, even if there is no Void Eye, she can rely on intuition to dodge the fatal attack and counterattack at the same time; what surprised me was the sleeping sister, the only time I saw her attack was When the Witch Cultists invaded the academy before, I didn't expect that in addition to her powerful Xingyan cultivation base, her swordsmanship cultivation base was also amazing.It was honed from the battlefield of hell, a sword technique born purely for killing, pursuing the greatest advantage at the least cost.

But even so, the pitch-black figure that was clearly under the siege of the three did not show any sign of weakness, and the two swords in both hands seemed to have their own will, easily breaking through the offensive of the three.Even though she was eroded by the black things, Yin Xingchen still displayed a strength worthy of Yueyin's name, and what emanated from her was a terrifying aura that could only be understood after stepping into that realm.

It was clear that only a few short minutes had passed, but the battle between the four of them seemed to have lasted for centuries. The originally peaceful canyon was already full of potholes and dao marks.Countless rock walls that have experienced wind and rain for many years fell, and even my hiding place was affected, and I had to change directions several times.The world has been destroyed into such a state by relying only on their bodies and swords. The power they possess far exceeds the understanding of ordinary people.

But that's all there is to it.

The senior sister (sister?) and the dormitory sister were thrown out almost at the same time. In the increasingly heated battle, the speed of the two finally couldn't keep up.Only the figures of Master and Yin Xingchen were still standing in the center of the ring, engaging in the quickest and deadliest confrontation without giving an inch.

"Dang!" After the sound, the two sides opened the distance at the same time, and slowly adjusted the driving again.It was as if an invisible flame was burning on their bodies, and even the space became distorted.

Unable to look away, I concentrated all my attention on the two of them.I finally understood why my master only taught me the first six swords of Jingyueliu. It was because from the seventh sword, the sword intent completely lost its form and became "Tao".The sword is like a person, and different sword holders will show different paths.And at this moment, there are just two people who have stepped into the "Tao" and preached this in front of me without maintenance.

Thousands of Dao thoughts are all tied to this sword.

"!!!!!!"

Ahhh.

can see.

The scenery like the beginning of the universe was born in the collision between the two, and even the stars were dimmed for an instant.

"It really is very strong, as expected of the legendary ancestor." The master said in a low voice. Along with her whisper, the dark human figure also let out a soft sigh that seemed to be satisfied and whimpered, and the figure disappeared with the wind.

When I came back to my senses, the scenery in front of me had disappeared, and we returned to the main hall of the ancestral hall. The old lady who was waiting by the side had disappeared at some point, maybe she was going to sleep.

"Ah——in this case, there should be no problem within 100 years!" Master stretched his waist and yawned heavily.The original sword wounds on her body have all disappeared, but this does not mean that nothing has happened, but it has been engraved in her soul in a special form.This is also why she suddenly appears extremely tired now. This kind of damage from the soul may not be repaired for a long time, "Then I will leave it to you for the rest..."

"Really, Master, don't fall asleep here." The girl at the side hurriedly supported the tottering Master, and after nodding to the dormitory sister, she completely disappeared from our sight after a few vertical jumps.

"After that, it's the problem between us. Can you explain it now?" Sister Sleeping Guan looked at me and said seriously.

I thought about it, and finally told her the truth: "I came here because I was looking for information related to 'Ye Qianmo'."

Under the shining of the starlight, Sister Sleeping Guan's complexion changed again and again.It seems that my guess is right, she really still remembers about "Ye Qianmo", instead of forgetting everything about that war like other people.

"...Why do you still have to mention her name now?" She said softly, her voice was so ethereal that it almost didn't seem like she existed in this world.

Chapter 120 Six Search

"Because I have a reason to do it. If I don't do it, maybe a lot of people will be hurt." I said seriously.

"Such a thing... Huh?" She suddenly seemed to have noticed something, and grabbed my arm. I was caught off guard and had no time to dodge, so I could only let her roll up my sleeves.

The pitch-black things that covered the surface of the skin like scales were completely exposed to the air.That is the aftereffect left by the last incarnation of a monster. I am afraid that it will remain on my body until I get rid of this "curse". I didn't expect to be discovered by the sleeping sister immediately.

After seeing the strangeness of my body, the expression on Sister Sleeping Guan's face changed in an instant, unbelievable, sad, at a loss, all kinds of complex emotions mixed on her expression, and finally all turned into A sigh.

"...Come with me." She said in an unquestionable tone, and pushed open the back door of the ancestral hall with ease.Behind the door is a small piece of lawn. Standing on the edge of the mountain, you can faintly see the lights of the town on the other side of the mountain, shining brightly in the dark.Sleeping sister just sat directly on the lawn. After a moment of stunned, I followed her example and sat on the ground looking at the night scene in the distance.

"...How much do you know about that child?" Sister Sleeping Guan asked suddenly.

"Probably, after she was born, then she was exiled to the battlefield?" I thought for a while and said.

"What, don't you know more than I do?" Sister Sleeping Guan smiled wryly, "...In the end, I still haven't been able to understand her at all."

"...Well, what is the seal here?" I tried to change the subject.

"As you can see, it was the seal that the captain set on herself. The captain who was supposed to die in that war suddenly became a container for monsters... Even I didn't know about this kind of thing more than ten years ago Yes." Sister Sleeping Guan said softly.She suddenly lay down on her back, stretched out one hand to the sky, and clenched it as if she wanted to grab something, "Although I have been suppressing that monster with my own will before, but recently I gradually lost control. Therefore, it is necessary to kill 'her' completely before it completely loses control. To do this, it is necessary to ask the two bloodlines of the Yueyin Clan to join hands with Jingyue and Mingyue to make it possible. In order to find those two bloodlines It took me a long time, but in the end there were still some mistakes... Well, let’s say the result is not bad, I didn’t expect that child to be able to suppress the captain by himself. What a terrific guy."

"Well, after all, she is that kind of guy who transcends common sense." I agreed with this

"... Sure enough, Tianchen, you know Kong, right?"

"Huh? Ah, we met once." I replied vaguely.

"Well, I remember you also like to use swords, right? And the moves you use are the same as Jingyueliu..."

"Yes, yes! Since it was originally necessary for Jingyue and Mingyue to join forces, why did it turn out that Master was needed again... Did that big sister make a move?"

"It was because the person who was originally scheduled was suddenly seriously injured, and the result was a temporary change. It was clearly an appointment to meet in Haiyuan City, but unexpected circumstances suddenly happened. It is really unfortunate enough." Sister Guan sighed.

... Sure enough, the other person she was talking about was definitely Luo Yixin, right?I secretly apologized to Sister Sleeping Guan in my heart, if it wasn't for me, maybe she wouldn't have been sent for treatment because of serious injuries.

"If that's the case, as long as you go to the Academy or the Twelve Families, you should be able to solve it smoothly, right?" If it's a complete witch child heir, it's another thing, but it's just a guy who is in a sealed state, there should be a better solution. .

"I can't trust them." Sister Guan Guan said bluntly, "It is true that if it was them, there should be a better way to solve the seal... But in that case, all the sacrifices made by the captain will be completely in vain."

sacrifice……?what does that mean?

"Although I don't know the purpose of your investigation of the 400-year war, but in the process of investigation, you must have discovered a very strange phenomenon-that is, almost everyone has forgotten about that war. The only thing left in my heart is the impression of this war and the unforgettable despair and fear, but I can't remember even a little bit of content."

Indeed, this is something I am very concerned about.It is said that more than 60.00% of the demon hunters died in this war, but even so, there should be many participants who have personally experienced the war and survived. However, the actual situation is that we can't even find the existence of this war in textbooks and libraries. Only from the mouths of the oldest demon hunters can we know a thing or two.

"It's not that I don't want to say...but I forgot."

"Forgot...?" I froze for a moment.If you simply want to modify the memory, it is not so difficult, but if you want to make so many demon hunters lose their memory at once, and there are even Xingyan and God Forbidden level powerhouses among them, maybe only a witch can do it To something like this?

Could it be that there is a witch-level existence interfering?But if it was really the witch who made the move, what was the purpose of hiding this fact?

"You seem to have misunderstood something. What we have forgotten is not the war, but someone closely related to it."

"Someone? Could it be that—" I reacted immediately, and looked at Sister Guan Guan in surprise.

"That's right, he ended the war that has swept through the world of demon hunters for more than ten years with his own power - that is Ye Qianmo."

...unbelievable.

Because of the curse he suffered when he was young, that child was doomed since he was a child, and he would never be able to practice cultivation.However, Sister Sleeping Guan suddenly said that it was the powerless mortal who ended the whole war, which is unbelievable anyway.

"I've been having this kind of dream since a long, long time ago. In the dream, I always seem to be looking for someone's figure, but the moment before I touch her, the dream will wake up. Can't remember I have forgotten the person's appearance, even the name, but there is a voice in my heart that has been urging me: "Hurry up, hurry up, I must find her." So I searched for a long time, Finally here, I found the last trace of her existence."

Chapter 120 Seven Possibilities

Sister Sleeping Guan looked at me calmly, but in the depths of her pupils, there seemed to be another person's reflection.

"Is that person Ye Qianmo?" I asked.

"That's right, that's it." She chuckled lightly, "but it's a pity that I still can't remember anything except her name, whether she looks good or in the past, but even if there are only these, for the current For me, it is still an absolutely irreplaceable treasure... Then, it is your turn to tell the reason why you are here? Don’t say anything just passing by by chance? And the one on your body The traces... If I guessed correctly, they were infected by the Corrupted Witch, right?"

I scratched my head: "Half of it is for self-protection. As you can see, due to various complicated reasons, I am now burdened with a 'curse' that is difficult to lift. If I don't find a solution within a certain period of time, it may happen very Bad thing. Because someone told me that this 'curse' is related to the war between demon hunters and virtual beasts 400 years ago, so I kept searching for footprints related to that war, and finally came here."

"So, what about the other half?"

"...Although it may be too late to say so now, I want to do something for that girl named 'Ye Qianmo'." I looked up at the starry sky.It's incredible, there are hundreds of years between us, but the closer we get to the truth of memory, the more I feel that there are too many similarities with myself in that girl.Weak, inferior, cowardly, but desperately trying to resist injustice.Although I don't really believe in the theory of destiny, I still couldn't help being a little bit shaken after learning that the other party has the same appearance and virtual eyes as me.Perhaps somewhere in the dark, there is really such a force that desperately guides me to get in touch with the truth of the year.

Sister Sleeping Guan was stunned for a moment, then lowered her head and muttered to herself: "It's meaningless to talk about these things now."

"Although this may be true, but you still followed your inner voice and came here? Otherwise, you can leave everything alone, or leave it to the twelve clans to deal with it. But you You chose to come here alone to find answers related to that year. Doesn’t this just prove that you have not given up?”

"Did I not give up? Ha, how dare you say that." Sister Sleeping Guan smiled wryly, "Anyway, if you really want to know some stories about the past, there's nothing you can do about it."

"Do you really know how?"

"Well. After all, I have been preparing for this day for a long time... By the way, do you know why Ye Qianmo disappeared from people's memory, and why are there still some fragments left?"

...To be honest, I'm not entirely without a corresponding guess.

After learning that Ye Qianmo is also the successor of the Eye of Xu, I immediately thought of what happened to Luo Yuze.

There is elimination.

That is something that only the successor of the Void Eye can grasp, a taboo among taboos.By burning his own existence in exchange for incomparable power, the more causality he holds, the stronger this power will be.But the price is that after using it in this way, there will be no traces of this person's existence left in the world. The past he experienced, the people he met, and the memory he left will all become empty.

If Ye Qianmo really used this taboo, then it is not impossible for her to be forgotten by the world.Because this power was used to end the Void Beast War, this war was also forgotten—this reason seems to make sense.But my intuition tells me that there still seem to be some unreasonable things in this issue.

For example, Ye Qianmo couldn't practice after all, even if he used the forbidden technique, he might not be able to exchange for enough power, and it was unlikely to be a turning point in the war; for example, Elvis once said that it was "the Twelve Families and the Night". "He" killed Ye Qianmo, although that guy is not a good person, but I don't think he has any need to lie.If this power was used by Ye Qianmo voluntarily, then there is no possibility of "being killed"; another thing that I can't figure out is that if it is really the "forbidden technique", it should not There may be so many people who still know of Ye Qianmo's existence. Now it seems that their attitude is more like simply forgetting, rather than completely ignoring.

Although this journey is nearing the end, there are still many unsolved problems.

"It seems that you have done a lot of thinking. For me, the simplest and most likely conclusion is 'the power of a witch'."

……what.

That being said, there is indeed such a possibility.
