Start with Star Iron and the connection will become stronger

Reflected in her golden pupils, Fan Yu's figure stood there motionless. Except for some marks on the corners of his clothes caused by lightning, there was no damage on his entire body.

The opponent stood there without moving, but he was like a lightning rod, immune to most of the damage from her attacks.

At least that was what Kujo Sara saw visually. Even she, the great general of the Heavenly Realm, couldn't figure out who the other person was at this moment...

After a brief moment of loss of composure, Kujo Sara immediately regained his composure.

When the attack failed, she immediately abandoned her original tactics, retaining only six beams of light composed of thunder to restrict Fan Yu's movement path, and mobilized the rest of her strength to condense into the black feather drawn from her waist.

Snap, Snap!

Purple lightning flashed from the feathers, and the thunder continued to compress from the feathers, gathering into a black feather arrow. At first, the arrow was just an energy surrounding the shape except for the black feather entity. With the continuous gathering and compression, it formed a purple lightning wrapped in a white plasma, and finally took shape.

Without thinking, Kujo Sara aimed at the opponent's location and then quickly released it.

Snap!

There was a whistling sound that broke through the air, and a black feather arrow was seen dragging a dense purple lightning and drawing a long trajectory in the air. After the arrow of energy flew out, it hit Fan Yu's feet accurately.

This arrow completely missed the target!

However, there was no trace of regret on Kujo Sara's face.

The moment Fan Yu looked down, the scene on the field began to freeze. The arrow feathers at Fan Yu's feet suddenly emitted an extreme white light.

Just like an explosive object with a fuse triggered, the compressed lightning element energy on the lightning arrow was instantly activated when it touched the earth at this moment.

boom!

There was a huge explosion, and the extreme white light engulfed the ground where Fan Yu was standing.

Dense purple thunder crackled in the explosion area, and green dust and flowers on the ground flew up. They were soon covered by the burnt smell brought by the lightning, and the field was filled with dust and smoke.

Kujo Sara stared at the dust ahead, her hair and the split-tail hem of her kimono fluttering in the gust of wind from the aftermath. But her golden eyes never shifted a glance...

In the field.

Suddenly, a breeze blew out, reversing the direction, causing Kujo Sara's purple hair, which was originally blowing backwards, to blow forward again.

Her pupils were startled, and she saw that the dusty and smoke-filled area in front of her had been fully revealed.

In the center of the huge pit radius, only there maintained the perfect symmetry with the flat ground where she was standing. A bull ghost mask fell to the ground, and there stood a man with slightly messy clothes.

When Kujo Sara saw the other person's face, his pupils trembled: "It's you..."

That face is the person that Tenryo Bugyo Inazuma has been paying the most attention to recently, because he is the wanted criminal who killed Shinsuke Hiiragi, the head of the Kanjo Bugyo of the Three Bugyo.

A stowaway from outside Inazuma.

"Also, it turns out you're not a ghost."

13 Capturing Kujo Sara

Fan Yu lowered his head and picked up the Ox-Ghost mask on the ground. He said calmly, "I never said I was a demon. As for this mask, it's called 'Ox-Headed Heavenly King' and was given to me by a friend named Minamoto no Raikou!"

There was a look of understanding on Kujo Sara's face. Does that mean that the 'Minamoto no Raikou' the other party was talking about is the real demon?

Do not……

These are actually not important anymore. After Fan Yu showed that face, his identity is no longer something that needs to be investigated.

"Your name is not Tsukimi. The head of the remote island's Kanjo Bugyo, Hiiragi Shinsuke, was also killed by you, as well as the stowaway from Inazuma..." Kujo Sara spoke slowly.

Any one of these charges is enough to make the other party unable to stay here.

A normal person would have made the wise choice to leave Inazuma or hide if faced with any of these situations. However, he chose the opposite, not only wearing the most eye-catching aristocratic mask, but also coming to the central Inazuma Castle.

Fan Yu: "So?"

Kujo Sara met the other party's contemptuous look and snorted coldly.

Indeed, the opponent is so qualified because of his strong fighting ability. This man is a madman without any fear.

A newly erected black feathered arrow rang out from the field. Purple lightning burst out with a crackling electric current.

The third arrow was about to shoot out from her palm, and a whoosh sound was heard. Suddenly, the figure of Fan Yu in front of Jiu Tiao Sha Luo flashed.

An extreme whistling sound broke through the air in the field, causing a strong wind to blow and countless grass leaves to fly.

Kujo Sara opened her eyes wide, and the outline of Fan Yu that was locked in her golden eyes had completely disappeared.

When she regained consciousness, she could already feel a strong gust of wind whistling in her face. This gust of wind, generated purely by air pressure, brought with it a wave of wind that instantly froze Kujo Sara's vision.

Purple hair obscured everything in front of her, but in the blink of an eye she had dispelled it with lightning.

however--

During this gap, Fan Yu's figure had already arrived close to her.

Kujo Sara's eyes widened, and he was about to release the lightning arrow held in his right hand.

It's too late, it's soon—

call out!

Lightning arrows shot out rapidly.

Chi!

A samurai sword cut the lightning arrow in half on the spot when the arrow was only three centimeters away.

The sounds and movements of both are synchronized almost at the same time.

Kujo Sara's pupils contracted as he stared at the figure in front of him: "You..."

"I'm not interested in being a target." Fan Yu said lightly.

He raised his knife and pointed it at Kujo Sara's neck: "Hmm?"

Before Fan Yu could say that the winner was decided, Jiu Tiao Sha Luo raised his arms. His white and slender arms, excluding the hand guards, showed soft muscle lines extending from his armpits to the half of his chest.

A black Tengu feather fell.

A flash of lightning burst out from the figure of Kujo Sara, as if it had replaced the lightning ball behind it.

Her figure instantly jumped to the place of lightning behind her, and a ball of lightning appeared in its place. Black feathers fell on it, followed by a symphony of purple lightning.

"Is this a faster speed, or a coordinate switch?" Fan Yu looked at the scene in surprise, and his gaze gradually turned to the nine-striped Sara that switched behind the thunder ball.

A blush crept onto the latter's face, and beads of sweat dripped down his forehead. His breathing became ragged as the two slime masses in his chest rose and fell.

It is obvious that Kujo Sara's ability to dodge quickly consumes a lot of energy on her.

Fan Yu walked forward, and the ball of lightning followed him as he crossed over. Suddenly, a force was transmitted to the surrounding area of ​​Fan Yu.

The Thunder God's Eye hanging from his waist flickered faintly, and a wave of purple lightning tried to activate his body.

This experience made Fan Yu feel very strange. Although the surface of his body was isolated from the penetration of all elemental energy, he could still clearly sense the energy in the electric ball left by Jiu Tiao Sara, which was intended to give a kind of amplification to those who touched the light ball.

In other words-

Does this lightning ball provide strengthening effects to others?

But, in such a hostile situation, would the other side choose to strengthen the enemy? Fan Yu stared at the other side, and his eyes gave a direct answer.

"You can't control this."

As soon as he finished speaking, Fan Yu took a step forward.

Whoosh!

His figure suddenly appeared in front of Kujo Sara, and before the other party could move, he had already swung his blade.

A silvery-white light flickered, forming a 'ㄨ'-shaped wound, leaving a bloody wound on Kujo Sara's hands and feet respectively. The chest guard was also cut off and fell off, leaving only the black tights inside, highlighting the pair of soft slimes that were unwilling to face the daylight.

"It won't be so easy for you to avoid it this time, little Tengu." Fan Yu walked up to her step by step, and the samurai sword fell on her neck again.

Kujo Sara instinctively hurried her steps, but the cut on her calf gushed blood as she squeezed it hard, causing her to groan in pain. She instinctively used her hands to support herself, only to find that her elbow was also injured.

Kujo Sara looked down and saw that the wounds on her legs and arms were too smooth, and only a line of blood could be seen. However, when she exerted force, the blood line broke open.

This seemed like a powerful method possessed by a master who had mastered perfect swordsmanship, or an assassin who had an extremely precise understanding of the human body.

"What is your purpose?" Kujo Sara stared at the other party.

The injuries she had sustained clearly showed that the enemy had no intention of killing her. But now, becoming a captive here seemed like an inevitable fate.

Fan Yu held his chin and said, "As for my purpose, I originally planned to go to Kamisato Yashiki. However, since you showed up, looking for you is also a very good choice!"

Kujo Sara was surprised. Did this mean that the other party had already set his sights on her?

Thinking of the information obtained from the previous investigation in Inazuma Castle, the other party had indeed investigated the affairs of the two families with that group of drinkers. Combined with what the other party had done on the outlying island, Kujo Sara came to an incredible conclusion in his mind.

"Your goal is to kill the head of the Three Bugyo family?" Kujo Sara asked solemnly.

Fan Yu was startled for a moment, then burst into laughter. "You have a great imagination. However, my search for the Kujo and Kamisato families is not what you would call hunting."

Kujo Sara: "What?"

Fan Yu lowered her head and lifted her chin: "Is there a possibility that my target is someone like you?"

14 "The Power of Pulling Earth Leylines"

A trace of electric current surged through Jiutiaosala's heart.

Facing the teasing gaze from this man, a blush of embarrassment appeared on Kujo Sara's face.

She was adopted by the Kujo family and trained since she was young. She entered the Tenryo Bugyo step by step and met the general... She was the practitioner of the "eternity" that the general talked about.

Apart from this, she had long since given up all the ordinary enjoyments, entertainment, marriage and childbirth.

now--

She had never been treated so disrespectfully before.

"A thousand brilliant suppression methods!" Kujo Sara shouted in a low voice.

Even though her limbs were unable to move and her most proud Tengu archery skills were no longer effective, as a user of the Eye of God and with the power of Tengu blood, Kujo Sara still had the ability to be a long-range mage.

Thunder roared from the feathers behind Nine Sara, forming several pillars of lightning.

These purple lightning beams, like the ones that had struck Fan Yu's body at close range, shone a purple glow in her eyes, her cold gaze piercing her, revealing an unyielding spirit that would not be easily defeated.

but……

The lightning metal wrapped Fan Yu's body, but it did not bring any screams or after-sounds of lightning burning.

Instead, a barrier was formed from the purple lightning on Fan Yu's body, which completely blocked the thunder from the nine Salas and even completed the integration with each other, triggering rounds of electric current symphony.

"How could it be..." Jiujo Sara looked at Fan Yu in surprise.

At such close range, she mobilized nearly all her strength to gather lightning, but she couldn't even break the opponent's defense. The damage was even worse than the scars caused by the previous bombardment with thunder arrows.

She couldn't believe the result and subconsciously stepped back, but found that she couldn't move at all.

"I never said I wouldn't use this kind of power."

Kujo Sara stared seriously at the other party's God's Eye, although some beings who inherited the God's Eye of others would become the new holders.

But she did not feel any stagnation in the other party's manipulation of elemental power. Even under the manipulation of thunder element, the other party was able to disintegrate her power.

Fan Yu grasped the samurai sword in his hand, and as he swung it, purple lightning surged from it, surrounded by crackling sounds.

His Eye of Thunder Elemental God glowed with a golden light, extending to the sun emblem on the back of his hand.

Under Kujo Sara's gaze, the sun emblem resonated with the element of thunder, and seemed to emit a golden solar halo.

Buzz!

suddenly.

The sound that suddenly arose in the field spread out from the center of Fanyu to the surrounding areas.

Ripples rippled through the atmosphere, extending into the nearby four-sided area, converging into a circular impact that spread out in all directions. The entire outskirts of Inazuma City—the grassy ground, the atmosphere, and even the waterfalls cascading down the mountain stream—were all pulled by some force at this moment.

A violent impact force swept over and whistled towards Kujo Sara's face.

She was hammered by the wind, and the wounds on her limbs felt excruciating pain. The wind blew her bangs, causing her vision to blur...

I don’t know if it was an illusion in her eyes, but her perception was confused.

She seemed to see the mountain in front of her collapse and turn upside down, the water in the mountain stream flowing backwards from the air, the trees, flowers and plants rising from the ground with their roots and soil, and even the sky and the earth became distorted, deviating from everything she knew in common sense.

Kujo Sara's body fell uncontrollably to one side, and he looked ahead with difficulty.

Faintly, she seemed to see a glowing object held in Fan Yu's palm.

Buzz!
