Genshin Impact: Learning makes me stronger

"Ah!" The two men screamed and fell to the ground, losing their ability to fight.

Kamisato Ayato was shocked. He didn't expect the opponent to be so powerful that he could defeat his retainer in an instant.

They are all top swordsmanship masters trained by the Kamisato family. Their strength is even comparable to some owners of the Eye of God. Who would have thought that they would be so vulnerable in front of this man.

Kamisato Ayato was even more cautious and used all his swordsmanship to deal with the black shadow.

However, his attacks did not cause much damage to the black shadow, and instead he was forced into desperate situations again and again by the black shadow.

"Master, let's go!" the two servants shouted.

They once again broke into the battle between Kamisato Ayato and the black shadow, trying to use their bodies to buy time for Kamisato Ayato to escape.

Kamisato Ayato gritted his teeth. He didn't want to give up on the two of them just like that, but he also knew that the enemy who attacked him obviously came with murderous intent. There was no room for conversation at all. If he continued to stay here, he would only die.

Just when he was hesitant, the black shadow sneered, "Oh, it's just an ant trying to shake a tree. It's just a futile struggle."

Before he finished speaking, a black shadow flashed and appeared behind the two retainers in an instant, then swung his sword and slashed down without hesitation.

"and many more!"

When Kamisato Ayato saw that his two retainers were about to be killed by the black shadow, his heart suddenly tightened and his eyes widened.

"Ding!"

At this time, the crisp sound of metal collision echoed in the air.

Kamisato Ayato clearly saw an arrow flashing with lightning collide with the black shadow's long sword, bursting out dazzling sparks.

The black shadow seemed to have not expected someone to suddenly attack. He paused and turned to look in one direction.

Without having time to think about it, Kamisato Ayato took the opportunity to come to the two retainers, helped them up, and then pulled them back.

"Master, are you okay?" The two retainers asked in pain, covering their bloody broken arms.

Kamisato Ayato shook his head, staring intently at the black shadow in front of him, while glancing in the direction where the arrow came from with his peripheral vision.

"Kujo Sara?" Kamisato Ayato's heart moved.

This is a beautiful woman with delicate features.

She wore a Crow Tengu mask diagonally on her shoulder-length hair, and under the bangs that covered her eyebrows were a pair of dark golden eyes that revealed a firm temperament.

He is tall, with bare thighs, foot straps on his calves, and single-toothed wooden clogs on his feet. He wears a black tight vest and a pure white shawl that was transformed from a hunting robe, and a round gold ornament around his neck.

The furisode sleeves on both arms are printed with the cobalt crest of the Kujo family, the lower garment is printed with a gauze-shaped pattern, and a knotted cassock is tied to the belt with the Eye of the Thunder Element God hanging on it.

Kujo Sara held a bow and arrow, standing not far away, looking at the black shadow coldly.

There were three other people next to her.

Kamisato Ayato discovered that he knew all three of these people.

One of them was the handsome man he had seen last time beside the general.

The other two were the Traveler and Paimon, who he learned from Thomas and who became friends with his sister.

Why are they here with General Kujo?

Before Kamisato Ayato could think more, Kujo Sara, Su Xun and the other two came over together.

Because it was the first time that Ying and Paimon met Kamisato Ayaka's brother Kamisato Ayato, they didn't know what to say, so they just nodded, and then stared vigilantly at the black shadow that obscured his figure and face not far away.

"Master Kamisato, are you okay?" Kujo Sara glanced at the black shadow with a cold gaze, then turned to Kamisato Ayato, "Just now, Lord Su Xun and the traveler said that someone was going to harm you, so we came here specially to rescue you."

"Oh?" A strange look flashed in Kamisato Ayato's eyes.

He hurriedly tore off his sleeves and bandaged the wounds of the two retainers. He then saluted and said, "Thank you, General Kujo and the others for your timely assistance. Otherwise, I would probably be beheaded today."

Although Kamisato Ayato was a little surprised why Su Xun and the others knew that someone was against him, at the moment, his gratitude overshadowed his doubts.

Kamisato Ayato's gaze lingered on Su Xun and the Traveler for a moment. He could feel the extraordinary aura emanating from these two people.

As expected, they are worthy of being the general's attendants and the prestigious honorary knights. Their strength should not be underestimated.

With the help of these two and General Kujo, I should be able to escape danger this time.

Kamisato Ayato was secretly glad.

"Master Kamisato, you are too polite. As the head of the community, you are of noble status. It is my duty to protect your safety." Kujo Sara said calmly, "But I didn't expect that someone would dare to attack you directly. It's really bold."

As he spoke, Kujo Sara looked at the black shadow and said in a cold tone: "Who are you? Why do you want to assassinate the leader of the society?"

Hearing this, the black shadow who had remained silent first laughed softly, and then the laughter gradually became louder, and the laughter was full of arrogance.

“Haha, hahahaha—”

"It really surprised me. I thought it was just a small matter that could be easily accomplished, but I didn't expect to encounter such an interesting scene."

"The head of Tianling Fengxing commissioned an outsider to assassinate the head of She Fengxing, and then the general of Tianling Fengxing came personally to rescue the head of She Fengxing. This is really a good show!" The black shadow's voice was full of sarcasm.

"What did you say?! The head of the family commissioned an outsider to assassinate the head of the Kamisato family? This is impossible!" Kujo Sara's face changed.

Kamisato Ayato narrowed his eyes slightly, but did not feel strange.

He had noticed something as early as when he saw that Kujo Takayuki's attitude towards him was somewhat subtle.

But he just thought that Kujo Takayuki wanted to seize the initiative in the upcoming changes, so he showed closeness to him. He didn't expect that he was so bold as to send someone to assassinate him directly.

"Well, Sara, what he said should be true, because we just caught a debt handler on the way here. He said that their executive officer was commissioned by the Tenryo Bugyo and Kanjo Bugyo to deal with the head of the Sha Bugyo, Kamisato Ayato." Paimon poked his finger and said hesitantly.

"..."

"The head of the family..." Upon hearing this, Kujo Sara's pretty face darkened, "He actually dared to do such a thing behind the general's back..."

"Heh...it seems that he is just a poor fellow who was kept in the dark by Kujo Takayuki and used as a tool." The black shadow chuckled disdainfully, and his words were full of ridicule towards Kujo Sara.

Kujo Sara's eyes were cold and the bow and arrow in her hand was trembling slightly, revealing her inner anger.

She never imagined that the head of the family, whom she had always respected, would do such a despicable thing.

"Oh? Before you mock others, don't you think about the fact that you are just a poor and helpless person?"

At this time, Su Xun, who had been silent all the time, suddenly spoke.

The black shadow was slightly startled, then turned around and stared at Su Xun coldly, "What did you say?"
