Flowing Blade Fire

Ryūjin Seiyun, as the eldest son of the Yagyu Lineage, is showered with love and affection.

He was also a martial arts prodigy, reaching the early stage of the Heaven Shinobi at the age of twenty-five.

Few among his peers could rival him.

He was also handsome.

Yagyu Ryūjin Hiren, the deputy prime minister of Sakura Country, is also known as Yagyu Ryūjin Kame and is one of the three Great Emperor ninjas of Sakura Country.

The many accolades he received fostered an extremely arrogant personality in him.

Looking across the entire Sakura Country, there were very few young people who could catch his eye, but Yokoyama Sakurako was one of them.

This girl's talent in martial arts surpassed his; she reached the early stage of the Heaven Shinobi at the age of twenty, equivalent to the Martial Emperor Realm.

Ryūjin Seiyun took a liking to Yokoyama Sakurako, believing that only she was worthy of him.

She was also captivated by Yokoyama Sakurako's stunning beauty, who was hailed as the most beautiful woman in Sakura Country, and she harbored feelings of love for her.

He repeatedly begged his wife to go to the Yokoyama Family to propose marriage for him.

Yokoyama Sakurako's husband, Yokoyama Hyōbei also thinks highly of him. Although he hasn't directly agreed, he hasn't refused either, and his attitude is somewhat ambiguous.

After all, his daughter was a favored daughter of heaven, and there were countless men who admired her and wanted to marry her.

Not to mention domestic suitors, even high-ranking officials, wealthy businessmen, and scions of large Lineage and conglomerates from other countries have come to propose marriage to her.

He felt he should wait and see if any more outstanding young talents would emerge.

Waiting for a high price to sell is a common tactic used by these politicians, and they are extremely skilled at it.

"Ah! Darling, this man is a madman. His grandfather has already reached the Emperor Shinobi. Darling, you must be careful."

"Hehe."

Hua Qiang chuckled twice, his tone playful. "Yingzi, do you think... your man needs to be wary of this kind of woman?"

"Honey, I was wrong. How about I unlock a really difficult move for you tonight?"

Honey, don't be angry anymore!

"Okay, you said it, so don't go back on your word later."

Hua Qiang found this woman increasingly adorable, constantly using her posture to seduce him; it seemed he would have to keep her by his side from now on.

"Little Fire!"

"Coming, Master!"

"See that idiot?" Hua Qiang licked his lips.

The Fire Kirin immediately replied excitedly, "Understood, Little Fire. I've disliked him for a long time."

How dare it challenge the master's divine might! This is bullying Little Fire!

If Little Fire doesn't beat his own mother so badly today, he's not called Fire Kirin.

"Hehehe, you little brat, taste your Grandpa Fire's methods!"

The Fire Kirin opened its mouth and spewed out a mouthful of flames, engulfing Ryūjin Seiyun and his group.

Hua Qiang's lips twitched involuntarily. This guy was a bit cunning, attacking indiscriminately and targeting the entire group of people.

However, he likes this way of doing things.

He disliked these Sakura Country from the bottom of his heart.

If it weren't for his status, and especially the beauty clinging to him, he would have already made his move.

"Baka! Baka yarou! You beasts dare to attack us, die, die!"

A group of Sakura Country cursed loudly before scattering in all directions to avoid the Fire Kirin's flame attacks.

Ryūjin Seiyun that his face turned black and he looked like he was about to burst into flames.

This is so insulting! They're letting a beast bully them.

Even though this beast was aggressive and ferocious, he still felt a tremendous threat from the Fire Kirin.

But his inner pride wouldn't allow him to back down; he wanted to kill this beast and then tear that person to pieces!

He took a deep breath and slowly drew Flowing Blade Fire.

In an instant, a powerful pressure spread outwards from him, even forcing the raging flames of the Fire Kirin back several meters.

"Bankai!"

With a low shout from Ryūjin Seiyun, Flowing Blade Fire instantly unleashed boundless power.

On the blade of the sword, a raging fire was seen burning fiercely.

The flames were not ordinary red, but rather a deep purplish-gold, as if they were Karmic Fire from the depths of hell, possessing the terrifying power to burn everything.

Ryūjin Seiyun wielded Flowing Blade Fire, unleashing a massive fiery sword Sword Qi that collided head-on with the pillar of fire spewed out by the Fire Kirin.

"Boom!" A deafening roar erupted, and the energy ripples from the explosion swept outwards like surging waves.

The earth was torn apart by this force, and deep, bottomless cracks spread rapidly.

The fiery sword Sword Qi, Flowing Blade Fire, was like an indestructible sharp blade, instantly cleaving the Fire Kirin's pillar of fire. Its momentum did not diminish as it rushed towards the Fire Kirin.

The Fire Kirin felt an unprecedented threat, and a hint of unease flashed in its eyes.

But its dignity as a descendant of an ancient divine beast could not tolerate being provoked, so it roared again, and flames around its body suddenly surged, forming an indestructible fire shield.

However, the power of Flowing Blade Fire was too great. The fiery Sword Qi crashed against the fire shield, producing a tooth-grinding friction sound.

Under the continuous impact of Flowing Blade Fire, the fire shield gradually developed cracks and eventually shattered with a crash.

The fiery Sword Qi energy struck the Fire Kirin directly, and the enormous impact sent it flying, crashing into the ground and creating a huge crater.

The Fire Kirin struggled to its feet, its flames noticeably dimmed. It stared at the Ryujin Flowing Blade Fire in Ryūjin Seiyun's hand and let out an angry roar.

Roar--

The Fire Kirin roared to the sky, its body wreathed in flames like surging magma, carrying the chilling aura of the Emperor Realm, and relentlessly crushed towards Ryūjin Seiyun.

This oppressive force was like a tangible, immense power, making each breath extremely difficult for Ryūjin Seiyun. It felt as if a million giant peaks were pressing down on him at the same time, and his bones made a cracking sound as if they could not bear the pressure.

Before Ryūjin Seiyun could recover, the Fire Kirin raised its thick forelimbs high and then lowered them.

The ground shook violently instantly, as if a super earthquake of magnitude 10 on the Richter scale had occurred.

Each Trample stirred up clouds of dust, and huge cracks radiated outwards from the Fire Kirin's center on the ground.

Unable to dodge in time, Ryūjin Seiyun was thrown off the ground by the powerful Trample force, flying backward like a kite with a broken string, spitting out a mouthful of blood in mid-air.

However, the Fire Kirin's attacks did not stop there.

As soon as its front paws landed, it kicked off with its hind paws, letting out another earth-shattering roar.

In an instant, the ground beneath Ryūjin Seiyun's feet seemed to be controlled by an invisible giant hand, with countless sharp Ground Spikes bursting forth from the soil.

These Ground Spikes were incredibly sharp, their surfaces gleaming with a cold, icy light, as they relentlessly pierced through Ryūjin Seiyun's body.

Ryūjin Seiyun desperately wielded Flowing Blade Fire, trying to defend against the attacks of these Ground Spikes.

The sword collided with the Ground Spikes, sending Mars flying.

But there were simply too many Ground Spikes, like an endless tide, and eventually a few of Ground Spikes broke through his defenses and pierced his legs and shoulders.

Ryūjin Seiyun Shizuku suddenly fell to the ground, blood gushing from his wounds and staining the surrounding earth red.

He endured the excruciating pain and struggled to his feet, only to find that Ryujin Jakka felt Flowing Blade Fire in his hand, requiring immense strength to swing it.

"Baka yarou!"

Ryūjin Seiyun cursed angrily, then looked at the Fire Kirin and said, "Beast, you forced me to do this!"
