According to Toshiya Yoshiya, there were at least 20 swordsmen from the Ghost Killer Team who had accepted the mission from the Spider Mountain. Among them, different members were fighting different evil spirits.
When Ryuga arrived at the river, she saw a strange ghost that had the body of a human but was as ugly as a spider.
Although it was a strange ghost, it seemed that because it had eaten many people, its strength had exceeded the range of a normal ghost. Its aura was at least much stronger than the Hand Ghost and Toad Ghost that Ryuga had encountered before.
And the one facing it was a half-naked youth with a wild boar hood on his head. Just like Ryuga, he used two swords.
The Spider Ghost was too strong. When he swung the giant tree trunk in his arms like a stone pillar at the wild boar youth, it even brought about a violent whistling sound in the air.
With that kind of power, if a normal person was hit by the tree trunk, their bones would be broken in an instant and they would die. Even a breathing swordsman would be severely injured.
"Cough!"
Although Wild Boar tried his best to avoid the Spider Ghost's attack, he was still hit by the huge tree trunk in a moment of carelessness. It was as if he had been hit by a truck, and he was sent flying more than ten meters away in a gust of wind. He only stopped when he smashed into a tree in the distance, and he coughed with difficulty.
"Oh no … at least three of my ribs are broken …"
The wild boar youth had excellent physical perception and was very sensitive to touch. Not to mention the injuries in his body, he could even use his skin to feel the approach of dou qi and killing intent.
Only three of his ribs were broken because he grew up in the mountains and often fought with wild beasts. His physical strength was far superior to normal people's. Otherwise, his body would have been half crippled and he would have lost the ability to fight back.
The wild boar youth was like a wild beast. He endured the pain with his strong will and stood up from the ground, ready to receive the Spider Ghost's next attack.
But when he raised his head, what he saw was not the Spider Ghost's frenzied attack, but an incomparably bright light from a sword.
"Clang —"
A clear light like a crescent moon appeared in front of his eyes. Then, it flashed so fast that he could not see it clearly.
"Wu Ao Ao!"
Before he could come back to his senses, the Spider Ghost had already let out a painful roar.
Then, his arms were completely separated from his body. Even his legs were separated from his body in an instant, as if they had been sliced by incomparably sharp threads. They fell into the river, causing a surge of water.
That was definitely not an effect that could be achieved with just one slash. If he wanted to cut off all four limbs from the torso, he would need at least three slashes.
However, the wild boar youth did not see the second and third blade light. That was purely because the three blade lights were too close together. Almost at the same time as the first blade light was released, the second and third blade light had already swept out like twin lotuses.
In other words, what he saw was not one saber light, but three saber lights at the same time. It was just that the speed was too fast for his eyes to distinguish.
"Hoo-yo-yo-yo!!!"
From the mouth of the young boar came an unknown cry, as if a wild boar was frightened.
This was something he could never do.
However, to Ryuga, this was not even considered a sword skill. It was just an extremely casual swing of the blade.
Ryuga stood on a palm-sized rock exposed from the river. Her gaze was indifferent as she looked at the Spider Ghost, whose limbs had been cut off and was howling miserably because the He Dao had sealed its recovery ability.
"Where are the other ghosts?"
"Wu Ao Ao Ao! Roar Ao Ao Ao Ao! You … Damn it — Ahhh! "
Ryuga looked at the Spider Ghost, who could not even complete a sentence, and frowned slightly.
Could this guy be like the Toad Ghost, an inferior ghost with insufficient intelligence?
"Forget it. It's not worth wasting time on this guy."
Just as Ryuga had that thought, the He Dao in her hand had already swung out.
After another blade light appeared, the Spider Ghost's head was instantly cut off. Its howling also stopped in an instant. Then, its entire body, including its limbs, turned into ashes and dissipated.
"The wild boar over there."
After decapitating the Spider Ghost, Liu Xia turned to look at the young man in the boar mask, who was staring at them blankly. She asked again, "Do you know where the other ghosts are?"
"Wu Lu Lu!"
The young boar suddenly became alert. He once again made a strange sound like a wild boar. Then, he excitedly held his two blades and ran in front of Ryuga.
"Child! The one who swung that kind of blade is actually a child! But it doesn't matter! Come and fight with me! "
Seeing the young boar's excited movements, Ryuga frowned again.
Could it be that this was another retard?
"Where are the other ghosts?"
Ryuga asked again.
Unlike the Spider Ghost, who clearly did not even have intelligence, this young boar was clearly a swordsman of the Ghost Killer Team. Although his brain circuit was a bit strange, at least he could communicate with words.
Moreover, he went up the mountain much faster than Ryuga. He should know the existence of the other ghosts.
"The other ghosts?"
After Ryuga asked again, the young boar clearly recovered from his thoughts. He put his hands on his hips and spoke with an incomparably proud expression.
"I don't know!"
Ryuga turned and left.
If he said another word to this guy, he would be a retard.
However, the young boar did not finish his words.
"Although I don't know, but we have met other ghosts before!"
Ryuga stopped in her tracks.
"And then that ghost was killed by Tanji Jiro!"
Ryuga continued walking.
Although she heard the familiar name from the young boar, Ryuga still did not care.
The reason why she had protected the two from the Purgatory Xingshu Lang last time was because she did not want the passionate feelings between the two to be ignored and tainted by the Purgatory Xingshu Lang.
However, although Ryuga valued the precious sibling relationship between them, he also had a clear understanding of his own abilities. He was not a god and could not protect the two forever. He did not have that ability, so he did not intend to protect them like a nanny. He would only help them when necessary.
As long as it was not certain death or when their feelings were tainted, Ryuga did not intend to help them.
Moreover, between 'killing as many evil ghosts as possible' and 'protecting Tanji Jiro who might be in danger', there was already a conflict of interest. Ryuga could not choose to give up on the benefits and choose to help them.
In his heart, benefits would always come first. Everything else, regardless of whether it was the 'obligation he needed to fulfill' or the 'passionate and precious feelings', had to come second. Not to mention, Tan Zhilang was only in a possible danger.
"Wait! Why are you leaving! Fight with me … "
The young boar's shout came from behind, but Ryuga ignored it. Instead, he left the river and continued to walk in the mountains.
