——Lin Qingluo, who was injured by a knife, didn’t want to go to the hospital at this time. He wanted to go to the next dojo immediately and continue to fight with real swords to win or lose.

Not to mention Mai Sakurajima, not even Yukinoshita Yukino could accept this kind of thing, but Lin Qingluo refused to retreat at this time and was extremely decisive.

"I just had a fight with Inaba Tsukiye, and I had a flash of inspiration in terms of swordsmanship. I must take advantage of this juncture to confirm it and find a way to deepen my understanding."

Lin Qingluo repeatedly repeated that his injuries were fine, but Yukinoshita Yukino looked at his clothes that were stained red with blood and felt that he was really crazy.

—— Yukinoshita Yukino did not say these words after all. She looked at Mai Sakurajima who was holding Lin Qingluo and crying silently with a firm face. She felt that she would definitely not allow Lin Qingluo to do such nonsense.

However, Yukinoshita Yukino guessed wrong. On the surface, Mai Sakurajima, who was controlling Lin Qingluo, chose to give in when the young man insisted. She hugged his neck reluctantly and repeatedly made him promise that nothing would happen.

——Of course, Lin Qingluo made a very solemn agreement with her.

Afterwards, the three of them took a bus to the next dojo. When Lin Qingluo, who was stained with blood, walked into the dojo, the students who were practicing were in a commotion. When Lin Qingluo said that he wanted to come to the gym, everyone in the dojo was shocked. .

"Although there are many enemies, they will be cut with one blow!"

Lin Qingluo did not challenge the strongest person by name this time. He held a common sword in his hand and stood alone in the center of the dojo, openly challenging everyone.

It didn't matter that there were injuries on his body, it didn't matter that the wheels were worn out, and it didn't matter that he was wearing a protective sword. Lin Qingluo, half stained with blood, stood there, covering the wound with one hand and holding the blade of the sword with the other, looking down at all living beings.

"Today, I will beat you until you are convinced!"

Everyone heard Lin Qingluo's declaration clearly. Many of them were disdainful and angry, but as Lin Qingluo won one after another, everyone fell silent.

——After eighteen victories, Lin Qingluo took away the treasured sword of the temple, left the words "Sick Man of the Island Country" on the curtains, turned around and left the dojo that was to be closed for three months.

And this is just the beginning, the second family, the third family, the fourth family, the fifth family... Lin Qingluo ended the battle faster and faster, and the light in his eyes became more and more fierce.

Chapter 118: The light of the sword cuts off everything as I do

The huge metropolitan area called Kyoto was not shaken by the fact that one person took on gymnastics challenges one after another and won consecutively.

But at the same time, in this ancient city, all the professionals who are immersed in kendo remember one name.

——Lin Qingluo, a 16-year-old boy, in one afternoon, with a bleeding wound, challenged 23 dojos in a row without losing.

Yukinoshita Yukino was the only one besides Mai Sakurajima who had watched the whole thing. This afternoon's experience completely changed her thoughts about Lin Qingluo.

At first, she met Lin Qingluo on a sunny rooftop. She looked at his newly drawn sketch and remembered the past, and ripples in her heart continued to ripple.

At that time, the young man seemed as if he was going to disappear at any time. He gave him his painting, turned around and said goodbye, and then disappeared into the school.

——Such an ignorant first encounter made Yukinoshita Yukino feel a little sad. She often looked at that painting and occasionally thought about what kind of person he might be.

Of course she didn't know the real Lin Qingluo, but the young girl's unique youthful fantasy made her outline a Lin Qingluo in her heart, and she even secretly yearned for him.

It was precisely for this reason that Yukinoshita Yukino asked Hayama Hayato about Lin Qingluo in the car, but the result was not satisfactory to her.

After all, the outline of Lin Qingluo in her mind not only did not become deeper because of this inquiry, but instead became blurred.

Then in the hotel, she met Sakurajima Mai, and it turned out that Lin Qingluo and Sakurajima Mai were lovers, and the so-called farewell turned out to be a trip with their girlfriends.

——The person staying in this kind of luxury hotel is either rich or noble. He is probably just a playboy who is trying to attract her attention in a mysterious way.

This kind of thing has happened in the past, so Yukinoshita Yukino's impression of Lin Qingluo has plummeted, and she doesn't even want to have contact with him again.

But then, Lin Qingluo ate a lot in the restaurant. She was honest and greedy, greedy and simple, simple and stupid, so she couldn't determine the label again.

There was no way, Lin Qingluo was really stupid at that time, especially when he raised his head among the piles of shrimp shells and bones, his hands and mouth were all stained with oil, and he stared at them and asked them what was wrong. The appearance is really making people laugh.

Seeing Lin Qingluo like that, no one could think that he was a very scheming person.Because even though there were two beauties sitting next to him, he was still concentrating on tasting the food, as if cooking was his career, and delicious food was better than anything else.

After returning to the room that day, Yukinoshita Yukino was actually quite angry. She even thought about never having contact with Lin Qingluo again, but some emotions like curiosity made her struggle with this decision.

The appearance of Shinya Hatoyama the next day gave her no room to think about the matter. However, Hayama Hayato proposed to go to the Kendo Hall. She did not agree, but she did not deny it either.

——And this is undoubtedly a kind of acquiescence.

Perhaps, the girl also had a kind of expectation and curiosity in her heart. She wanted to see what it would be like for him to challenge the kendo dojo.

After all, the reason why Mai Sakurajima, who has always been indifferent to others, shows such a proud and cute expression is obviously very curious.

What happened next was not as smooth as Yukinoshita Yukino imagined.

She used to practice Aikido, but she had never been exposed to Kendo, so she didn't try to practice. However, Hayama Hayato competed with Hatoyama Shinya, and Hayama Hayato was obviously at a disadvantage.

At that time, Yukinoshita Yukino was thinking about how to interrupt the unfair competition. For a moment, she did not consider a perfect solution, and then--Lin Qingluo appeared.

With an arrogant and crushing attitude, he knocked Shinya Hatoyama to the ground. Shinya Hatoyama was seriously injured and had to call an ambulance to take him away.

At that moment, Lin Qingluo looked like Yukinoshita Yukino had never seen before. When they first met, he was shy and gentle. The second time, he was greedy and dull. But this time, he seemed to be looking down on him. All scorn.

This is a type of person Yukinoshita Yukino rarely sees, because simple pride and complacency can only make people inflated at most, and the expression of sitting on the throne, waiting for others to challenge, is a Arrogance above all else.

With this emotion, Lin Qingluo easily defeated Jiang Mu Yuanji. After the victory, he curbed his arrogance and became able to treat others as an equal.

But to be honest, the 'bet' Lin Qingluo took from Yixin Dojo was a bit shocking.

In one game, he took away the dojo's treasure, kept the dojo closed for three months, and ruined Tongmei Rishin-ryu's reputation.

At that time, Yukinoshita Yukino may have admired Lin Qingluo in her heart, but she did not feel that he was too cruel and arrogant.

But then, the appearance of Inaba Tsukiye made everything different.

In the sword fight between the two, Yukinoshita Yukino saw for the first time a concept that transcended common sense. She saw Lin Qingluo's fierce figure and that sword light that was unforgettable for life.

It turns out... he is a true master of swordsmanship. His successive challenges may be in pursuit of a higher realm.

Perhaps, his challenge to Isshin Dojo was also a teaching. What he took away from Tongmei Rishinryu may not only be their century-old reputation, but also their ignorance and complacency.

In a way, this is also a severe rebuke. Lin Qingluo's sign that reads "Sick Man of the Island Country" may also be an attempt to make Kyoto's swordsmen realize their shame and be brave enough to become truly powerful.

This inexplicable change in mentality made Yukinoshita Yukino also a little worried about the wound on Lin Qingluo's flank. Because it kept bleeding, it was difficult to see how deep the wound was, but the way the bleeding continued was really worrying.

——When Sakurajima Mai rushed over to bandage Lin Qingluo, Yukinoshita Yukino actually had the urge to run over and help for a moment.

Compared to Sakurajima Mai's clumsy dressing techniques, Yukinoshita Yukino actually has some experience in treating wounds because she was injured while practicing Aikido.

However, Yukinoshita Yukino did not take that step after all. She watched Lin Qingluo gift the sword to Inaba Yueye and then mix up the insulting plaque.

Of course, what moved the girl the most was what Lin Qingluo said before leaving. His calmness and calmness made it difficult for people to feel bad about him, and the confidence he showed in the end, which was traced back to his previous victory, also made people feel uncomfortable. People think it should be so.

——Even, it makes people feel a little handsome.

In short, because of these complicated thoughts, Yukinoshita Yukino finally ran out of the dojo, caught up with the two of them, and wanted to send Lin Qingluo to the hospital.

However, Lin Qingluo obviously didn't want it to end here. His idea of ​​continuing to challenge other dojos with a bleeding stab wound was so crazy that people thought he was seeking his own death.

If Yukinoshita Yukino could speak easily, she would definitely rebuke Lin Qingluo's crazy idea, but she was not qualified to respond, so she could only watch Sakurajima Mai agree.

——Until this moment, Yukinoshita Yukino discovered that she thought that 'in the relationship between Lin Qingluo and Sakurajima Mai, Sakurajima Mai had the absolute advantage', but this was just her imaginary arrogance.

Normally, Lin Qingluo might be criticized and manipulated by Mai Sakurajima, but for truly important matters, the young man's will is unshakable, and his decision is the final result.

As a result, Yukinoshita Yukino followed Lin Qingluo all the way through the 23 kendo dojos, and finally saw the "awe-inspiring and domineering" behind Lin Qingluo's usual "casual and lazy look".

He dragged his injured body, and the wounds on his sides were torn apart with every movement. The red blood overflowed, making half of his clothes completely dyed red.

But Lin Qingluo pressed the wound with his left hand and held the long knife that he had received in the previous battle with his right hand. Every time he went to a dojo, he fought until no one dared to step forward. Everyone admitted defeat, and the owner of the dojo admitted his defeat.

To be honest, when the wounded and bloody young man stood in the huge dojo and challenged with a sword, he was really cool.

His voice was not loud, but no one in the silent dojo responded, and no one dared to step forward. His eyes would sweep across the entire place, and he would eventually sheath his sword.

Then, he would tear off a piece of plain white cloth and write the words "Sick Man of the Island Country" with a brush like a splash of ink. The free and easy and sword-like intention in the handwriting made people unable to get enough of it.

During this challenging journey, Yukinoshita Yukino went from the initial denunciation, to the worry in the middle, to the shock at the end, and - the final admiration.

The girl's mentality has really changed many times. Even what happened on this day, she feels that she will never forget it.

——That evening, after she returned to the hotel, she tossed and turned all night, unable to sleep. It wasn't until dawn that she fell asleep in a trance, but in her dream, she once again returned to the scene she experienced during the day.

It was the end of a series of challenges, and it was the most difficult one for Lin Qingluo along the way. He dragged his injured body and endured the confusion of blood loss to fight with a famous swordsman in Kyoto.

Yes, it was a fight in the true sense. The two used deadly real swords, and the sound of the weapons clashing was shocking.

At the climax of the battle, the 'sword' in Lin Qingluo's hand was cut off by the opponent's sword, and a flesh-and-blood wound was cut on his thigh.

At that moment, Yukinoshita Yukino even thought that Lin Qingluo's victory would end here. She thought that Lin Qingluo would fail and be killed. She even covered her mouth and cried when she didn't even feel it.

At that time, she stood on the inside of the crowd and looked at the young man who was neither tall nor strong, but instead wounded and stained with blood. His back had never been thinner or more gripping.

Then, Yukinoshita Yukino couldn't help shouting Lin Qingluo's name, and Mai Sakurajima beside her also shouted with a cry.

While the disciples in the dojo were celebrating, the great swordsman who had taken advantage of the weapon kept attacking. He had no intention of letting Lin Qingluo change his weapon. Instead, he wanted to take advantage of the situation and chop off one of his arms, or - Kill directly.

Yukinoshita Yukino didn't know what Lin Qingluo was thinking at that moment, because she only saw the young man's back, holding the broken sword in his hand flat, and swung a brilliant sword light that seemed to cut off people's eyes.

Bang~!

Then, the great swordsman, whose right arm was broken at shoulder level and his left leg was cut off at knee level, fell down and bleeded widely on the ground.

"This is my unique sword style created by me after Alpha Strike. I call it...the other side."

Lin Qingluo, who reversed the victory, was so calm that it was shocking. He reversed the cheers of the students in the dojo, and also reversed everyone's mood.

——It was a dominating victory that left an invincible mark on people. It was also the impression that the sword light called the other side gave people when it first appeared.

It is a human skill that was finally born from Lin Qingluo's hands after he was inspired by her Yunyao·Shuangguang during the competition with Inaba on the night of the moon. Through his understanding and appreciation of Wuji Kendo.

"Thank you. You made it take shape. In return... I won't leave any words."

Lin Qingluo's leg was injured, causing Lin Qingluo to walk with a limp. He took the sword from the great swordsman on the ground, then put the sword back into its sheath, leaving behind a warning to stay behind closed doors for three months, and turned around. The next battlefield.

At that time, Yukinoshita Yukino didn't know what kind of mentality she had. She even rushed over to hold Lin Qingluo's arm before Sakurajima Mai.

"Thank you."

Lin Qingluo's face was frighteningly pale due to repeated battles and blood loss, but the smile on his face was still the same as when he first saw him.

Yan.Xiㅡ㈤82㈧四四四

Then, Mai Sakurajima ran over and held Lin Qingluo's other arm. The three of them walked out of the dojo and entered the next battlefield together.

After comprehending the sword style called "The Other Shore", Lin Qingluo defeated three more dojos, and then at the begging of Mai Sakurajima, the challenge finally ended.

After sending the two to the hospital, Yukinoshita Yukino actually had the idea of ​​staying, but looking at Sakurajima Mai guarding Lin Qingluo, the reserved and proud Yukino chose to leave silently.

——The next night, she couldn't sleep. When she fell asleep in the early morning, her dreams were all about Lin Qingluo.

When Yukinoshita Yukino woke up, it was already noon. She looked through Shizune's phone and found that all of them were messages from her sister.

When Yukinoshita Yukino called, Yangno answered the phone almost instantly. Her tone did not mean she was angry, but she sounded a little excited.

What Yukinoshita Yukino didn't expect was that Harano didn't mention much about Shinya Hatoyama. The only sentence he said was that he would have to lie down for two or three months, but his life was not in danger.

After that, the conversation between the two was almost entirely centered around Lin Qingluo, the 'genius who defeated Kyoto's kendo circle', the 'peerless swordsman who killed hundreds of people', and the 'bloody demon king who was victorious'.

——She seems to have become a celebrity after following Lin Qingluo’s challenge? !

Chapter 119: Yukino-chan is confused

Yukinoshita Yukino had never thought about getting any benefits from Lin Qingluo, but her sister Yangno's excited attitude at this time made her feel that something was wrong.

"Sister, you have been contacting me so anxiously since this morning. What happened?"

"Hey~ are you so sharp? Yukino-chan, you have grown up."

Yukinoshita Harano seemed to be in a very good mood at this time. From the phone, she could vaguely hear the sound of her slapping the pillow, and her tone of voice was leisurely.

"Your friend named Lin Qingluo sent that naughty boy Shinya Hatoyama to the hospital. Isn't this a very happy thing~"

"What's even more interesting is that I thought you would be in trouble, and even my parents would come to visit me. But I didn't expect that there was no reaction at all from the Hatoyama family~"

"Alas~ That's the Hatoyama family. The second son of a wealthy political family who once had the title of Prime Minister and is now very ambitious was beaten to the point of being bedridden for three months, but the other party didn't even retaliate. Do you know what this means? "

Yukinoshita Yono's interest in Lin Qingluo has exceeded the limit of 'he is Yukino's friend', and has even reached the point where she wants to take the initiative to contact him.

"I investigated Lin Qingluo's background and family status overnight, and guess what?"

"..."

Yukinoshita Yukino did not answer her sister's words, because her expression was very serious now and she was obviously angry.

"Yangno, it's very, very rude for you to investigate my friend at will. Do you understand?"

"Uh... Of course I understand. Don't worry, I will apologize to him in person~ and there will be no delay. Just today, how about it?"

"Not so good! What on earth are you planning on doing?!"

Yukinoshita Yukino was so angry that she almost burst out of her mouth, but Yangono was still smiling and didn't care about her sister's attitude.

"My sister, don't be angry~ Let me tell the truth. I spent a lot of money investigating Lin Qingluo, but in one night, several firms got the same answer——"
