Chapter 946: Sword God

Sakura Wulan, this is obviously a name with the characteristics of the Eastern Kingdom, and in the Eastern Kingdom, this surname is also famous in all directions.

As we all know, the Dongzhou region of the eastern country today, its ruler is the Sakuratake family, and the Sakurabu Lan who appeared in Victoria at this moment is a member of the Sakuratake family, and his elder brother is the current head of the Sakurabu family, Sakuratake Yamao.

Of course, although the blood of the Sakura Warrior family flows, he himself has nothing to do with the Sakura Warrior family.

To be precise, it was not the Sakura Warrior family who abandoned him, but he abandoned the Sakura Warrior family.

....

Some people say that if Sakuratake Lanken was willing to help Sakuratake's family in the war with the Xigong family, then Dongzhou and Xichuan would have been unified long ago.

Turning the tide of the war by one person and bringing an overwhelming victory to the army sounds a bit exaggerated.

However, those who really know Sakuratakeran's strength know very well in their hearts that this is not a joke.

Because, when Sakura Takeran was 25 years old, he personally defeated the legend of the former Eastern Kingdom, the founder of the Sakura Takeshi family, and also his grandfather, Sakuratake Shiyoro.

...

Few outsiders knew about that duel, and the people of Dongzhou only realized that they didn't know when it began, and Sakuratake Shiyaro, who was known as the first swordsman in the Eastern Kingdom, slowly disappeared, and until now, he has not been found.

Some people may say that it is not surprising that a 25-year-old grandson beats a grandfather in his 60s.

However, the person who can say such a thing must have overlooked one thing.

At that time, Sakuratake Shiyaro finished his practice and officially announced that he would go out of the mountain, he was already over 40 years old, because the sword drawing technique inherited by the Sakura Takeshi family was not the body, but the mind.

Unlike Yanguo swordsmanship, the sword technique of the Sakura Warrior family is not very complicated, and it does not require extraordinary endurance, the more it has been precipitated over the years and tempered for thousands of years, the more exquisite it is.

At that time, Sakura Wu Shiyalang, who was in his 60s, asked himself that he had reached the peak state of his entire life, if he hadn't been able to find Xiao Yunye anyway, that Qingyun Peak duel would probably have to be staged again.

But he regained his self-confidence in this way, but he was easily defeated by his grandson Sakura Wulan, who was only 25.

....

Since then, Sakuratake Shiyaro has seen through the red dust and let go of his pursuit of martial arts.

There are people outside the world, there is a sky outside the sky, he has lived for most of his life, he has always thought that Xiao Yunye is "heaven", but the irony is that he was easily defeated by his grandson.

It's like a marathon, during the run, you have been chasing after your self-perceived competitors, but unexpectedly, half an hour after you have set off, a person who has just arrived at the race track catches up with you from behind not long after the start, and then, easily overtaking you, leaving you far behind, out of reach.

After that war, Sakuratake Shiyaro, who had studied martial arts all his life, knew very well that his grandson Sakuratakeran could no longer be described as one in ten thousand.

It's the one who has never been seen before or since, the real god of swords.

...

The strength of Sakuratakeran made the entire Sakuratake family at that time high-spirited, and no one even stopped the elder Sakuratake Shiyaro from choosing to retire.

Soon after, the head of the Sakura Warrior family, the eldest son of Sakuratake Juyoro, died of illness, and the position of head of the family became vacant.

At that time, the whole family, including the entire Dongzhou family and the generals, unanimously recommended Sakura Takeran as the new head of the family, and no one raised any objections.

However, in the end, it was not Sakuratakeran who succeeded the head of the family, but his elder brother, Sakuratakeyama Yu.

It has been said that when God opens a window for you, he closes the door with his hand.

What God opened was Sakuratake's amazing talent in martial arts, and when he closed the door, it seemed that his head was squeezed.

It's like some kind of law of nature, strong people born by chance always like to be mavericks, and Sakura Takeran has only participated in one battle with the Nishinomiya family throughout his life.

Then, he announced that he would never interfere with the grievances of the Sakura Warrior family and the Nishinomiya family again, and he had a higher pursuit in life.

This is very similar to his grandfather Sakuratake Juyaro.

....

In the blink of an eye, 20 years have passed.

Sakuratake Juyoro lives alone on the south coast of Nishikawa and has become an old man who is close to 90 years old.

And Ying Wulan has also entered middle age from a young man in his 20s.

Some people say that 40 years old is not confused, and this description can also be used to understand martial arts.

All those who witnessed the battle of grandparents and grandchildren had the same idea.

20 years have passed, and if Sakura Takeran is still alive, I'm afraid that no one in this world can defeat him.

Even if it was the first sword saint of the Yan Kingdom back then, it was estimated that it would not work.

.....

.....

Victoria, outside Lentinium.

The air was filled with the smell of burning, and the ground within a radius of tens of meters seemed to be swept by flames, and all the weeds turned to ashes.

This shocking scene was all due to the Red Knife's exclusive Source Stone Technique, but in the next second, the flames on the long knife were extinguished.

The badly wounded Red Knife was on one knee on the ground, supporting his body with a long knife, and the blood had already stained the ground under his feet.

Ying Wulan, who was standing opposite him, looked even more embarrassed, the simple blue shirt on his body before was burned by the flames, and even the hair on his forehead was scorched into strands.

However, even though he seemed embarrassed, his flesh did not have a single wound cut by a sharp blade, and the same intact was the ear of grass that he had held in his mouth from beginning to end.

In other words, during the entire battle, the red knife did not hurt him in the slightest.

...

Standing on the ground as if swept by the fire of the prairie fire, Sakura Takeran slowly retracted the Sakura knife into its scabbard.

"You should be the so-called infected, I've never seen this kind of attack, but unfortunately, although the power is strong, it is too slow in my eyes."

Red Knife's face was covered in blood, and the wounds on his body were no longer enough to sustain him in the fight, and finally, he turned his head slightly to look at the wall behind him.

On the front of the city wall, two slash marks half a meter deep and seven or eight meters away appear on it in a cross shape.

This was done by the sword qi, and it was also left by Ying Wulan during the battle just now.

A weak, trembling voice came from the mouth of the red knife.

"Who the hell are you, why are you looking for Xia Feng."

Sakura Takeran's expression remained unchanged.

"It turns out that the person who split the city wall is called Xia Feng, okay, now I seem to have your so-called qualifications, can you tell me where the person named Xia Feng is."

His vision became blurred, and his eyes flickered.

He ...... It's no longer in Victoria. ”

After that, the long knife could no longer support the seriously injured body, and with a "plop", the red knife fell down.

In this battle, he lost.

....

Sakura Wulan's clothes were burned and tattered, but he didn't care about it.

Turning around, he followed the city gate, his eyes quietly fixed on the bright avenue that ran through the entire city.

"Isn't it Victoria, well, I'll find him, Xia Feng, and I'll continue to get stronger until I find you."
