Chapter 529 - Death
As the clouds in Lei Luo's hand slid, black blood began to scatter as Miyamoto Musashi's body shattered. Everything was so unexpected.
However, what Lei Luo saw in Miyamoto Musashi's eyes was not regret, but relief.
In a flash, Lei Luo stabbed the clouds into the ground and caught Miyamoto Musashi's upper body, which was about to fall to the ground.
Perhaps it was because of the tenacity of the demon race's vitality, or perhaps it was because the obsession in Miyamoto Musashi's heart had not been completed that he did not die immediately. He only opened his eyes with difficulty and looked at Lei Luo, the last person he had ever seen in his life.
"Tell me, what do you think the people of the northern border will think of me? A demon? A freak? Or a Grandmaster?"
At the last moment, Miyamoto Musashi was still very serious. He only asked Lei Luo, but Lei Luo was at a loss and did not know how to answer.
"You don't have to say anything. I know that I'm just a chess piece in the hands of the demon race's Saintess. I am a chess piece used to open the node. But I still can't help but think, what if? What if she's truly for me?"
"I understand. The greatest thing in a person's heart is luck. I've always understood that."
As Miyamoto Musashi's voice became weaker and weaker, Lei Luo still heard his last words clearly.
"I have something in my pocket. This is my last bit of kindness. I hope you can accept it. Miyamoto Musashi has been walking the path of martial arts since he was eleven years old. He is not accepted by all sects. However, I created the two-day-one-day school. It is unparalleled in the world. No one can match me. I was once down and out, and I was also incomparably brilliant. It's a pity that no one can teach me martial arts in this world. Today, the two-day-one-day school has disappeared. I..."
The voice suddenly stopped, and the hand that had once swung the sword fell heavily. The Grandmaster Miyamoto Musashi had died!
Lei Luo looked at this scene with incomparable familiarity. He had bid farewell to another friend, and the only thing he remembered of his glorious life was his peak, his love and hate, and his attachment. He could only silently look at Miyamoto Musashi's corpse. No one knew what he was thinking about.
The audience who didn't escape this place watched Lei Luo kill Miyamoto Musashi. They all began to stop and cheer for this new king. Lei Luo only felt that they were noisy.
He picked up everything that Miyamoto Musashi left behind and patiently put his corpse back together. He stored it into the God's space and walked towards the high platform. He wanted to end all of this!
On the high platform, the Nakajima family head began to panic. He did not expect that Miyamoto Musashi, who had received the tool given by the Devil Lord, would still fail. What followed was the reckoning.
He muttered to himself, "Impossible! Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
As he moved towards the Takeda family head, as if he wanted to say something, General Zili looked at the Nakajima family head's small actions without any expression. He did not stop him, nor did he speak.
The Nakajima family head slowly walked to the Takeda family head's side and suddenly shouted at general usury, "Usury, I'm telling you that all the fleets are now under our control. If you don't want to die, kill Lei Luo obediently, then step down from the stage and welcome the demon lord's arrival."
The Nakajima family head also knew of Lei Luo's existence. This was what Miyamoto Takezo had told the Nakajima family head. The information in the northern borders was limited, so he did not know anything about Lei Luo. However, the aristocratic families had their own information channels, so Nakajima knew how terrifying Lei Luo was.
There was no other way. Who would not be afraid of a magician who could destroy six lord-tier fleets in an instant?
However, General Zili did not panic like Nakajima wanted to see. Instead, he looked at Nakajima with interest.
"General, can we kill this monster now? I'm getting impatient."
Unexpectedly, the Takeda family head who was sitting next to Nakajima knelt down on one knee towards General Zili and said something that made Nakajima feel like he was in a dream.
"How is this possible? Takeda, if you betray the demon lord, you will die! You have to think clearly. It is still not too late to join forces with me!"
Nakajima shook Takeda's shoulder in excitement. He did not expect Takeda, who had worked with him, to betray him like this. He knew that this was his only hope.
However, Takeda did not look at him. Instead, he pushed him down, grabbed him, and pressed him to the ground.
"Bah! You dog who can't see the situation clearly. I already told the general when you contacted me. If it wasn't for obtaining information about the Devil World, you would have died long ago. What kind of dream are you still harboring in your head?"
Following Takeda's words, the Nakajima family head who was struggling on the ground came to a stop. His face was ashen. He was finished.
General Zili watched this scene happen and only shook his head. As if regretting something, he swayed his footsteps like a green lotus and walked in front of the Nakajima family head. The purple-clothed General Zili was as terrifying as a devil in front of Nakajima.
"I've already given you a chance, but you still can't see through it. Then you'd better let Lei Luo Eed your life."
After saying that, he looked at Lei Luo who was stepping onto the high platform and said softly, "I'm sorry."
However, Lei Luo ignored her. He just walked past General Zili and walked towards Nakajima's position.
She had known all this a long time ago, but she didn't say anything to Lei Luo. From the beginning to the end, she was the chess piece of this woman in front of her, a chess piece that destroyed Nakajima.
Miyamoto Musashi's death could have been avoided. As long as he had stopped Nakajima before Miyamoto Musashi took part in the competition, it would have been fine. However, Zili didn't do anything. He just watched Miyamoto Musashi's meaningless death.
This was what made Lei Luo angry. She could have kept him from knowing all this, but she still did it. She had been planning from the start. Lei Luo was just a variable, a variable that was enough to topple the Nakajima family.
He raised his sword and swung it down. Nakajima's head fell to the ground. He still had the same incredulous expression.
After wiping the boy clean, Lei Luo did not turn back. He saw what General Zili was going to do next.
A bright sword light flashed and stabbed at General Zili from Lei Luo's shadow. It was as if this was premeditated.
"Cut off."
Along with the old voice, the sword in the swordsman's hand could no longer approach General Zili. Takeda, who was on the high platform, obviously did not expect that the Sakakami family head did not move, as if he did not have any thoughts.
There seemed to be sounds of fighting coming from outside, and there were also people shouting.
"Kill the general and restore the Orthodoxy!"
"Brothers, kill the general, glory and wealth are right in front of you."
But Lei Luo did not move, and neither did the general. The shouting and killing gradually turned into cries of pain, and soon there was no sound.
In a great hall of the demon world, the graceful and elegant demon lord sat on a throne piled with bones and said to the person in the mirror, "Let's begin. Nakajima has failed. This time, we must let the reputation of the demon world resound throughout the empire again."
The armored general in the mirror replied respectfully, "Yes."
