With the situation suddenly taking a turn for the worse, Shutendoji felt as if his heart was in his throat. As a warrior who had experienced hundreds of battles, although he had tried his best to dodge backwards, judging from the speed at which this human swordsman had struck out, it would take less than a single breath of time for this human swordsman to pierce through his heart. As long as this human swordsman thrust out his sword, he would die here!
But what Shutendoji didn't expect was that the human swordsman didn't chase after him with his sword. Instead, he casually punched him and sent him flying.
Although it looked like Shutendoji had rolled on the ground twice, it didn't cause too much damage to the tough Shutendoji.
The other demons were probably worried that the human would chase after Shutendoji, so they all roared and attacked him.
"Are you insulting me, human!" Shutendoji stabilized himself and roared with an ugly expression.
The human swordsman casually flicked away a demon's club and sliced it into pieces. He glanced at Shutendoji with an indifferent expression and said with an uncaring attitude: "No, it's just that I'm not the one who wants to take revenge on you."
What Seiji didn't know was that Shutendoji's nonchalant attitude was a stab to the pride of Shutendoji, who had lived a smooth life ever since he was born.
But before Shutendoji could charge forward again, his warrior instincts, honed from countless battles, alerted him to danger. He rolled to the side and barely managed to dodge a sudden attack from behind.
"You have the smell of grandpa and grandma's blood on you …" The young man with a waist-length ponytail and a pretty face narrowed his eyes and said coldly to Shutendoji who was sweating profusely: "You were the one who attacked our village a few days ago, weren't you?"
Shutendoji looked at his ribs where blood was seeping out and couldn't help but grumble inwardly.
Even though they hadn't fought yet, the human's sharp swordsmanship and the fact that the human swordsman was able to injure him told him that this young man who was as cute as a girl had the ability to kill him.
If it was any other time, Shutendoji would probably be more than happy to fight against such a powerful opponent.
But now, the timing was really terrible.
The human swordsman on the other side was like mowing grass, beating up a large group of ghosts until they pissed their pants. If he did not go over to save the situation, perhaps the remaining few seedlings on Ghost Island would all die. Even if he went over to save the situation, it might not necessarily be useful.
What day is it today? Why did these monsters, which completely violated the limits of human beings, keep coming to him?
Wait a minute …
Shutendoji stared at Momotaro in confusion for a while before a look of realization appeared on his face. "This isn't the aura of a human. Rather, it's closer to nature … Are you a natural-born immortal?"
"I don't know about that kind of thing." After Momotaro finished speaking, he began to attack Shutendoji, causing Shutendoji, who only had half a katana in his hand, to be flustered.
But even so, the movements of the two were still so fast that it was beyond the limits of human vision. If there were ordinary people present, they would probably only see some afterimages and sparks in the air due to the illusion of human vision — those were the result of the collision between the two weapons.
"Yo, need help?"
While Momotaro and Shutendoji were fighting, Xu Shenxing had pretty much cleared out all the ghosts. Apart from Shutendoji, who was unable to fight back against Momotaro's katana, there was only Ibaraki Douji, who had lost an arm under a tree in the distance.
"No need, monkey -san, please watch from the side."
Momotaro replied without hesitation.
"I should have told you not to call me monkey …"
Xu Shenxing helplessly sighed. After watching the battle for a while, he felt that the situation was great. How could Momotaro lose while riding on the face? And so, he ran over to the tree, intending to get rid of the last remaining ghost.
When he got closer, Xu Shenxing discovered that the tree was actually a cherry blossom tree. It had been lush with leaves before, but now, for some reason, all the leaves had withered, and pink petals had taken over the branches.
"It bathed in the monster's blood, so it also transformed into a demon cherry blossom … I'll just cut it down later."
Ibaraki Dojo, who had been silently hanging its head under the tree as if it had already died due to excessive blood loss, suddenly erupted and clawed at Xu Shenxing the moment Xu Shenxing approached and focused all of his attention on the Yōkai Sakura!
Xu Shenxing instinctively stabbed her body with his sword.
But even so, she still fiercely hugged Xu Shenxing, imprisoning him in her arms!
"Shutendoji -sama, run away now!"
Even though blood was gushing out of her mouth, she still shouted at Shutendoji who seemed to be still fighting.
"In this kind of situation, it seems like I'm the bad guy …" Xu Shenxing sighed. He wanted to break free, but found that he couldn't break free from Ibaraki Douji's shackles.
Did she use the last of her life to cast a spell to strengthen her body? It seemed that Ibaraki Douji was the only ghost who could use spells.
"I definitely won't let you continue to harm Shutendoji -sama!" The girl clenched her teeth and insisted on not letting Xu Shenxing escape. The Ghost Clan's strong physical fitness and the amplification of the curse actually allowed her to trap Xu Shenxing for a short period of time, who couldn't exert force because of his posture.
In a way, this was something she should be proud of … in another world, trapping Xu Shenxing for one minute was something she could brag about with the Demon King's Army for a year.
Shutendoji's eyes flashed when he saw this situation. He paid the price of being hit by Momotaro's sword and grabbed Momotaro's ankle, smashed him a few times on the ground, and threw him into the sea.
This level of attack naturally couldn't kill Momotaro, but it could at least delay him for a while.
"Good job Ibaraki Douji! Catch him for me! "
Not only did Shutendoji not run away as Ibaraki Douji said, he even rushed towards the two of them. With the ghost's physical strength, this distance of several hundred meters was covered in the blink of an eye.
The next moment, Shutendoji threw away the broken pieces of the odachi in his hand, and pulled out a crimson odachi from his body.
Compared to the thick and heavy odachi, this odachi was much smaller. It was about the same size as the odachi that Momotaro's Sabersmith Yasutsuna gave him.
But in reality, this odachi was Shutendoji's final trump card.
Demon Sword – Omikihimaru!
This was a weapon that only demons could wield. It was said that after her death, Izanami had gathered all the ghostly energy in the Kingdom of Yellow Spring to create this unique demon blade in order to take revenge on Izanagi for abandoning her. The demonic energy on the blade alone was enough to compete with ordinary great demons.
In Japan's demon world, there was also a legend that if one obtained the Omikihimaru, they would be able to command the Night of a Hundred Demons and become the King of a Hundred Demons. It was similar to the Dragon Slaying Sword.
His previous battle with Xu Shenxing ended in a flash (and it was a one-sided beating), so he didn't have time to take out this ultimate weapon, but it was different now.
Shutendoji's eyes flashed with an ominous glint.
Xu Shenxing frowned slightly. 'Is this guy planning to kill this female ghost who's hugging me as well?'
Thus, when Parrot brought Wu Yejin to the island, the first thing they saw was Xu Shenxing and the female demon in front of him being cut in half by a male demon behind them with a blood-red odachi.
