Wei Mingyi put the wine jar on the ground, raised his drooped eyelids, and stared straight at Han Baiyi with a pair of turbid triangular eyes.
After staring for a long time, he burped, then sighed and said:
"You are very ambitious, you little brat."
"Tell me why."
The old man's voice was hoarse and vicissitudes of life, and beneath his seemingly skinny and old skin was a domineering soul.
No room for rejection.
"It's to cut off Long Yin."
Han Baiyi was sitting up in front of the old man, straightening his back:
"Master Jiulang, she wants to cut off Long Yin and change her life."
"To do this, I must gain the power to defeat Sakuraryu."
"Gu dong dong..." Ashina took two sips of old wine with all his heart, his cloudy eyes sparkling, "Not bad, really not bad, you guys."
"I can see more clearly than Genichiro."
"It is wrong to live without death."
"Even with Long Yin's power, as long as a person lives too long, it will inevitably affect his mind."
"Everyone must face death once."
As he spoke, the old man stood tall and picked up a tachi from the knife rest on the side.
Pulling out the sheath, the blade surface is as bright as water. There are many small and large gaps on the blade, and there are even traces of cracks. But when others look at it at first glance, they can only feel the sky-high sharpness and murderous intent.
This is a knife that has killed many people.
Even if it is not stained with blood now, it looks extremely old and may break at any time.
"Let's go, let me see your strength."
The moment Ashina Isshin stood up, his face, as dry and decayed as the bark of a tree, had already shed the smell of alcohol and was not drunk at all.
Just standing next to him, you can feel the piercing intent of the knife.
The old man's expression did not change at all. He turned back to Han Baiyi and said with a playful smile:
"If you can't even defeat a bad old man like me, then stop trying to defeat Yinglong and find a woman to live with as soon as possible."
Han Baiyi remained seated and nodded slightly.
"yes."
...
Balcony on the top floor of the castle tower,
Wei Mingyixin and Han Baiyi stood opposite each other.
Although the old man's figure is thin, once his tall body is straightened, he immediately transforms from a decrepit man into the sharpest sword in the world.
The white dark clothes were floating leisurely in the breeze on the rooftop, as if he was about to take off in the next moment. The long silver-white hair blowing into the air made the old man look a little more fairy-like.
His eyes seemed to be shining.
This is the strongest person in the world.
The one who was named the Sword Master was Isshin Ashin.
Han Baiyi pressed the knife with his left hand, but he couldn't help but feel a little excited.
To be honest, he has become a little swollen since he went through nearly two hundred reincarnations and killed Genichiro Ashina head-on.
It's a bit like not taking any strong person seriously.
In fact, it is natural for this to happen.
Ashina, or the strong men in the Sekiro world are the countless Genichiro, Owl, and Lady Butterfly.
All the powerful Ashina men of the previous generation have grown old. In the next generation, Genichiro is the only one who supports him. He, who was designated as the second generation leader of Ashina, is the strongest among the young people of this generation.
There is no doubt about this.
If Genichiro could have as many fierce subordinates as Isshin around him, he wouldn't have to think about abducting Loli every day just to become stronger and fight against the inner government.
But Han Baiyi was different. As a time traveler, and a time traveler who had completed dozens of weeks of Sekiro, he was born with a sense of looking down on the so-called 'strong men' in the Sekiro world.
Except for using Genichiro as a target for him in the beginning to practice his sword skills, he really wasn't afraid of anyone in this world.
No matter how strong and talented you are, no matter how fast you learn, is it possible that you can still be stronger than his one-click upgrade?
Even if the old man in front of him is dubbed the 'strongest' and 'sword master', he is already old.
Han Baiyi didn't believe that the gap in strength in reality would be as big as it appeared in the game.
Although Ichiro is called a bastard by players, he is actually a strong man who can rival Owl, otherwise he would not be qualified to inherit Ashina Castle's family business.
'Uncle, times have changed.'
With this thought in his mind, Han Baiyi raised his knife with a smile on his lips.
Ashina Yishin just stood there carelessly, yawning at the same time, completely lacking the demeanor that a sword master should have.
Han Baiyi took a deep breath, and the [Life-protecting Breathing Yang] was running rapidly in the body. A warm current surged from the lower third of the navel, rushed into the body like a fountain, and started to circulate clockwise in the body at high speed.
The body feels slightly warm.
Looking at Wei Ming Yishin's figure with a knife in one hand and a body full of flaws, Han Baiyi's whole body was burning like a flame, and his pupils were covered with a thin white film of aura as he opened and closed them.
The spiritual eyes are opened.
Holding a knife in both hands, Han Baiyi looked solemn.
"please."
"Just try your best, kid."
Ashina Isshin held a knife in one hand and stood on the wooden floor with his bare feet, his silver hair floating slightly.
'boom'
There was an explosion on the ground, and sawdust flew into the air where Han Baiyi was standing. The dust exploded and spread in the air, forming a thin layer of smoke that blocked the view. However, the flow of air could not deceive anyone.
In Ashina Yishin's seemingly cloudy eyes, Han Baiyi's figure wrapped in the dust trail was reflected.
Whispering in a low voice.
“A bit slow.”
Han Baiyi's whole body was wrapped in a warm current as hot as magma. The increase brought by [Life-Protect Breathing Yang] to his body could not be explained by the small increase in blood volume after killing the enemy. It was an almost all-round effect.
As your physical abilities increase, even if you are injured, your strength will swell like an overdose of stimulants.
Coupled with the amplification effect of the spiritual machine, Han Baiyi's physical ability reached the peak he had in the Sekiro world at this moment.
The calf muscles are extremely swollen, and their strength skyrockets due to the double increase of inspiration and life-protecting breathing techniques. Every step is like a heavy hammer falling. Although the strength and details are difficult to control, in contrast, it is several times higher than the normal state.
speed and power.
What is the nature of ninja combat?
It is a combination of speed and strength. Although the technique is useful, it cannot suppress the level.
In Han Baiyi's field of vision, the entire world was passing by him at high speed, and all scenes were as illusory and fragile as phantoms. This extreme speed was something he had never experienced before.
In this state, he can almost feel the extreme secretion of adrenaline, his pupils are highly focused, every muscle is twisted together like a steel wire, and his body is extremely coordinated, even if his body is at an angle of nearly thirty degrees to the ground.
Perfectly balanced.
There is only one goal.
That is Ashina Isshin, the strongest Sekiro in front of him.
The blade of the blade is held diagonally and raised up, and the whole person rushes forward in a thorn-like shape. There are no fancy techniques and steps, only the purest boiling blood.
This is his most powerful secret skill passed down from Wolf's most beloved adoptive father.
Kui Nin stabs.
Ashina Isshin, who was pointed at by the blade, seemed to have just woken up and didn't react at all. He just watched him holding the knife in both hands in silence, watched him rush in front of him, and watched him stab the blade at himself.
His face was expressionless throughout the whole process.
In an instant, the old man moved.
The blade held in one hand drew an arc along with the white robe. The blade, which seemed to be filled with gaps, did not make any sound when it tore through the air. The angle of the blade's tip was just right to catch the vision of Han Baiyi's constricted pupils.
The blind spot happened to pass Han Baiyi who was about to crash into his chest.
Immediately afterwards, the blade hit him from the side at a weird angle. Without any wrestling, the blade collided with the blade. The moment the blade passed by, the sound of violent metal friction rang in his ears, even though his eyes were always catching it.
Looking at Wei Ming Yixin's figure, Han Baiyi could also feel the burning sensation coming from the blade in front of him.
Then, the old man turned away from the blade and moved his feet like a child fighting. Han Baiyi, who was going all out, instantly lost his balance and was directly deflected by the inertia of the moment when he rushed out. His whole body brushed Ashina Isshin's chest and faced back.
It hit it and hit the floor with a thud.
His whole head sank into the ground.
Between the lightning and flint,
The outcome has been decided.
From the ceiling of the top floor, Han Baiyi looked at the couple who were fighting naked in the cubicle on the third floor, and was suddenly interrupted by him, with a look of confusion on his face.
On the balcony, Ashina Yishin smiled and turned the blade, the tip of the knife pierced Han Baiyi's butt exposed on the floor, and spoke in a relaxed tone.
