Dancing Blades! Surging Currents!

"As a man, how can I not shield a woman from the wind and rain!" These words, filled with determination and sincerity, seemed to replay endlessly in Mikoto's ears. She stared blankly at Wu Yan's back, her hand gripping the potion bottle tightening unconsciously.

"Yan..." Hinagiku's voice was slightly choked with tears. A deep regret welled up within her. If she hadn't insisted on coming, they wouldn't have wasted a life-saving potion. If Yan got hurt because of this, then she...

"Don't worry, Hinagiku." Although Wu Yan couldn't see Hinagiku's face, he somehow felt like he could hear her heart.

"Although I don't have 'Brilliant Breath', I have something else to save my life, something called 'Senzu Bean'. No matter how badly I'm injured, as long as I'm not dead, I can recover instantly, so don't worry about me." He tossed a few green beans in his hand, smiling as he spoke.

These 'Senzu Beans' weren't cheap either, 10,000 points each. Wu Yan exchanged for six in one go. Adding that to the 'Brilliant Breath' at 100,000 points a bottle, Wu Yan had spent a full 260,000 of his 268,000 points. The remaining 8,000 were earned from the Great Wolf Demon's body just now.

"Besides, I still have so many things to say to you, so many things to do with you, so I absolutely won't die like this!"

Hinagiku stared fixedly at Wu Yan, then opened the potion bottle and poured all the golden liquid into her mouth. Wiping her lips, Hinagiku said, "Yan, if you dare lie to me, you're dead!"

Wu Yan couldn't help but smile wryly. "Can you not talk about dying at a time like this?"

"Yan, are you really not going to drink it? Now is not the time to be stubborn!" Mikoto said, her head lowered, her voice a little weak. Although she said that, Mikoto didn't have much hope.

Although she had only known Wu Yan for a day, Mikoto already had a certain understanding of him, not just because of the information the System gave her, but also because of their brief time together.

With his personality, he probably wasn't lying, and now wasn't the time to lie.

"Hurry, Mikoto, they're coming!" Wu Yan ignored Mikoto's words and shouted loudly at her.

At the same time, the massive demon army finally lost its patience. Accompanied by deafening roars, demons of all sizes charged over.

Like a swarm of locusts, the demons charged across the ground, leaving huge trails, with rubble flying everywhere and dust swirling up. The ground shook violently, as intense as a volcanic eruption!

Looking at this terrifying scene, Wu Yan and the others couldn't help but feel a tremor in their hearts, their heartbeats quickening. But this didn't mean that Wu Yan and the others were afraid.

The imminent situation left Mikoto no chance to persuade him further. Biting her lip, Mikoto pulled open the cap and gulped it down, as if doing so could vent her anger, then shouted, "Listen, if you die and drag me down, then..."

"Then I'll be your slave in the next life!" Wu Yan shouted, gripping his sword in both hands, stomping his foot, and quickly darting out!

At the same time, the iron sand around Mikoto began to roll faster and faster, transforming into whips of iron sand under Mikoto's control, flying towards the demon army!

Hinagiku took a deep breath, holding White Cherry, and followed behind Wu Yan, charging towards the demon army...

Slicing a level 20 rat demon in half that came head-on, Wu Yan disregarded the splattering blood, letting it splash on his body. His eyes gleaming with a deadly cold light, he continuously swung his Kusanagi Sword, one demon after another falling beneath him.

As Wu Yan advanced, corpses littered the ground wherever he went. The demons' bodies were strewn about like sacks, and blood splattered on the ground like water, forming a bloody path.

Demons from all directions surrounded Wu Yan, attempting to trap him. Wu Yan leaped into the air, the Kusanagi Sword in his hand glowing. Wu Yan spun around!

Turbulent Return of Celestial Dance!

Arc-shaped blades of light formed a circle, spreading outwards as Wu Yan spun. The surrounding demons collided head-on with the circle. Those demons were either cut in half by the blades of light, or torn into pieces, or even crushed into powder...

Hinagiku pierced the heart of a demon with White Cherry in her hand, blood splattering. Hinagiku endured the trembling of her body and the fear in her heart, biting her lip tightly, not even noticing when she had bitten through it.

Hinagiku knew that she was weak. Any one of these demons was stronger than her. If it had been before, she would have died under their claws long ago.

However, with 'Brilliant Breath' protecting her, whenever a demon attacked Hinagiku, a wave of invisible energy would bounce back from the point of impact, nullifying the demon's attack. Relying on her invincible state, Hinagiku used a life-for-a-life method, killing the demons whose attacks failed.

Over time, Hinagiku simply abandoned defense, focusing all her attention on attacking. She would immediately give up on attacking powerful demons and switch targets, while weaker demons were relentlessly attacked to death by Hinagiku. In a short time, dozens, if not hundreds, of demons had died at Hinagiku's hands...

"They're not human, they're just demons, they're not human, they're just demons!"

Mikoto kept repeating this sentence, then manipulated the iron sand whips to kill the attacking demons. Each time blood splattered, Mikoto's face turned paler. By this point, Mikoto's face was as white as paper.

The iron sand whips danced continuously in the air, and each dance was accompanied by the fall of a demon. Although Mikoto didn't charge into battle like Wu Yan and Hinagiku, but stood in place, using her superpower, she killed not only the most demons, but also the strongest!

Mikoto knew that Wu Yan was only level 30, and at least half of these demons were above level 30. Without the protection of 'Brilliant Breath', Wu Yan might not even have time to eat a 'Senzu Bean' if he encountered a few level 30 demons.

What's more, Hinagiku was only level 18, although she had drunk 'Brilliant Breath', but that couldn't stop Mikoto from wanting to help them.

So, Mikoto controlled her iron sand, encircling all the level 30 and above demons in the demon army. Although she couldn't use the System to exchange for items like Wu Yan, Mikoto could use the System's detection function. Mikoto knew exactly who was level 30 and who wasn't. Whether there were any omissions or not, it was certain that Mikoto had encompassed ninety percent of them.

It was because of Mikoto that Wu Yan was able to charge so freely and kill demons so happily.

Two equally kind girls, at this moment, were enduring the fear of blood and slaughter, wielding their weapons, and hunting demons...

Using 'Turbulent Return of Celestial Dance' again, sending a bunch of demons to the west, Wu Yan freed up a hand and swallowed a 'Senzu Bean' with difficulty, restoring his body to full health.

The battle had been going on for some time, and Mikoto and Hinagiku had 'Brilliant Breath' protecting them, so Wu Yan didn't need to worry about them at all. Therefore, Wu Yan focused all his attention on killing demons. The clothes on his body had long since turned into various colors, red, black, green, and blue, everything imaginable.

This was the blood of the demons he had killed! Every single one!

Of course, there was also some of his own blood!

Wu Yan, who had been using the System's detection function from beginning to end, naturally knew that Mikoto had taken on the vast majority of the level 30 demons. It was because of this that he had been able to keep killing until now, and couldn't help but feel the fatigue and injuries of his body, and swallowed a 'Senzu Bean'.

Although Mikoto had stopped most of the level 30 demons, the demons that Wu Yan faced were at least level 20. With so many level 20 demons, even Mikoto had to rely on 'Brilliant Breath' to protect herself. After all, a quantitative change could lead to a qualitative one. If the number was large enough, even a level 86 would have to meet his end.

Although these demon armies weren't numerous enough to threaten a level 86, they could still threaten a level 68. If Mikoto wanted to run, then she definitely could, but it was absolutely impossible for Mikoto to abandon Wu Yan and Hinagiku!

Wu Yan silently remembered everything Mikoto had done, then continued to wield his Kusanagi Sword, slaying demons.

Gradually, as time passed, the number of demons decreased, and Wu Yan's 'Senzu Beans' also decreased. Until now, there was only one left!

The pain in his body and the fatigue in his mind were constantly telling Wu Yan to 'fall down'. Wu Yan desperately squeezed the strength in his body, killing the demons that came head-on, but he couldn't care about the demons attacking from behind and from the sides.

Back, chest, thighs, arms, face, there wasn't a single place on Wu Yan's body that wasn't injured. But there was only one 'Senzu Bean' left, so Wu Yan really didn't want to use it until the last moment, because using it would prove that he was almost at the end of his rope.

Against such a large number of enemies, if he exchanged equipment without exchanging for the super strong kind, then the effect would not be much different from the Kusanagi Sword, and if he exchanged for the super strong kind, he wouldn't have enough points.

And what ability should he exchange for? Group attack? He already had 'Turbulent Return of Celestial Dance', so there was no need for it. Single target? Then there was even less need for it. And some abilities that were enough to reverse the situation, he had them, but it was still the same problem, not enough points!

As for summoning characters, it was true that he could summon them with 11,000 points, but how strong would the summoned character be? Even Mikoto had to rely on 'Brilliant Breath', otherwise she would have had a few scars on her body long ago, and the others were even worse.

Just as Wu Yan couldn't resist the urge to use the last Senzu Bean, a wide net of electricity surged from afar, turning the large group of monsters attacking Wu Yan's rear into charred corpses. As the electricity dissipated, a crystal longsword appeared beside Wu Yan, cutting down several monsters that were about to pounce on him.

Wu Yan looked up, slightly dazed, at the two figures standing in front of him.

On the left stood a pink-haired girl clutching the crystal longsword, and on the right, a brown-haired girl with blue arcs of electricity flowing around her, constantly crackling with a 'bili bili' sound.

Although he could only see their profiles, Wu Yan could clearly see the fear of the unknown creatures and bloody slaughter lingering in their eyes. Even with that emotion, the two girls stood there steadfastly, slaying the attacking monsters.

A smile appeared on his blood-smeared face as he swallowed the Senzu Bean. Wu Yan stood up, walked to the two girls' sides, and fought alongside them
