At this time, the demon knife slowly faded away and turned into a junk knife full of chips and rust.
This is the original appearance of this knife.
Just as Xia Po expected, this demon sword is, to put it bluntly, a kind of monster named Qi Yuan.
This kind of monster is very low-level and belongs to the kind of little monster that is not popular in the world of cultivation.
But because he specifically targets mortals, he still has a reputation. After all, there are many mortals in the world of cultivation.
This kind of monster will look for a target when it is young, and then it will come into contact with the target, and then merge into the mortal object that the target wants most.
Once a mortal object is fused with this monster, it will become something with a curse.
As long as other people are hurt by this thing, they will be cursed and die instantly.
Not only that, it will also impose a curse on the target, making the target very powerful, and it will also kill people for various reasons.
The souls of people killed by this target will basically be absorbed by monsters, and then mature one day and become real monsters.
This kind of monster's curse is not painful to monks, but it is absolutely fatal to mortals.
Xia Po is also a mortal, but he is not afraid because he has the blood that Lord Wei left for him.
This thing is the egg of a demonic insect, and the favorite thing of demonic creatures is curses.
As long as there is a curse on Xia Po, and it is not a particularly strong curse, it can basically be absorbed by this blood type.
Therefore, although Xia Po was cursed after being slashed twice, the vampire immediately absorbed the curse.
In other words, the curse is not only ineffective against Xia Po, but can even provide something similar to nutrients to the blood species, making the blood species mature faster.
As for this monster, it is still in its infancy and has no ability to move at all.
And after it merges with mortal matter, to put it bluntly, it is just a living curse, and it is directly absorbed by the blood species.
In other words, Miyamoto has now gotten rid of the curse, but so what?
He is already a cripple, and now he has no strength. The only thing waiting for him is death from excessive blood loss.
But despite this, Xia Po still walked up to Miyamoto, ready to kill him with a knife.
Miyamoto looked at Xia Po and smiled.
It seems that death is a kind of relief for him.
"Do you have any last words?"
Xia Po's long sword was already pressed against Miyamoto's neck and could kill him directly at any time.
Miyamoto took a deep breath.
"I didn't expect that a warrior in his eighties could still be so powerful. In our Fuso Kingdom, there is a sword master who is very powerful, not even inferior to you.
If it were in his heyday, even if I had the demon sword, I would never be his opponent. But when I found him, he was already over seventy years old and was just a dying old man.
And you are over eighty years old. I thought you would be like that sword master. It seems that I am sitting in a well and looking at the sky..."
After Miyamoto finished speaking, he closed his eyes and prepared to welcome death.
Xia Po also decisively gave him a sword, allowing him to completely leave this not-so-beautiful world.
When Xia Po stepped off the competition stage, everyone was excited.
They chanted Xia Po and even gave him the title of Sword Immortal.
Xia Sichou even came to Xia Po and praised him in every possible way.
In response, Xia Po just smiled, looking a little careless.
In the crowd, an old man looked at Xia Po and was so shocked that he could hardly close his mouth.
He is Li Buxiang who often drinks with Xia Po in the tavern.
This old guy was far away at first, and because of his dim eyesight, he thought that Xia Po just looked like the old Xia in his memory.
But now that the competition is over, if you take a closer look, isn't this Lao Xia?
Xia Po also spotted him in the crowd, smiled at him, and then left surrounded by people.
When the crowd dispersed, Li Buxiang still stood there, still not believing his eyes.
He and I drink and chat in the tavern every day, claiming to be a former servant of the Xia family, but it turns out to be Xia Po, the best in the world?
Didn't this guy tell himself before that he had never seen Xia Po?
That's right, how could I have seen myself?
…
Three days later, Xia Po held a piece of paper in his hand.
It records the major and minor events that happened in Kyoto and outside Kyoto.
Yes, this is the newspaper. Of course he told Xia Sichou and asked the Xia family to make it.
This advanced way of eating melons became popular in Kyoto immediately, and the newspaper business became the main source of income for the Xia family.
In addition to making money from selling newspapers, you can also advertise on them and earn advertising fees and connections with some big businessmen.
Nothing major happened in Kyoto these days, everything seemed very ordinary.
And Xia Po remembered what Miyamoto said to him before he died.
It is obviously impossible for a mortal to live over eighty years and be as active as him.
Moreover, his reputation is too great, and it is impossible to conceal his youth. In addition, the tree is big and attracts wind, so it is time to leave.
He planned to hang out for a few years and then return to Kyoto with a new identity to start a new life.
In order to prevent others from discovering the secret of his immortality, he could only do this.
On this day, he came to Xia Sichou and told him that he was old and wanted to use the remaining time to go outside.
Xia Sixou, who was still smiling at first, suddenly had a smile on his face.
But he didn't hold back too much.
After all, he is now older, not as sentimental as he was when he was young, and understands that there is no such thing as a banquet that lasts forever.
So after saying goodbye, Xia Po left with the most important things.
When leaving, he asked Xia Sichou not to let others enter his yard, as he might come back.
After saying goodbye to the Xia family, he walked in Kyoto, looking for his old friends.
Leaving now means saying goodbye to Xia Po forever, so I have to say goodbye properly.
But having said that, in the entire Kyoto city, apart from the Xia family, the only person who seemed worthy of saying goodbye was his drinking buddy Li Buxiang.
After walking around the tavern twice, he found no sign of Li Buxiang, and then went to Li Buxiang's residence.
He had been to Li Buxiang's residence and knew how to get there.
But before we got there, we saw a large group of people gathered around to watch the fun.
This immediately touched Xia Po's DNA, and he couldn't help but join in the fun.
In the middle of the crowd, several middle-aged men and women were arguing about something.
It was so noisy that everyone couldn't stand each other, and all kinds of swear words and trash talk came out.
Xia Po listened for a long time and finally understood what happened.
It turns out that this is the child of a person. Then because of a sudden illness, that person cannot take care of himself and needs someone to take care of him.
But none of the children wanted to take care of her, so they started quarreling over this matter.
Xia Po looked away.
It's so cliche, it's the same no matter what world it is in.
Just as he was about to leave, he saw an old man in the corner who was placed on a trolley, with his lips dripping with laughter.
That's right, this old man is Li Buxiang.
This old guy is now curled up on the carriage, trembling, looking like a kitten abandoned by its owner.
Xia Po sighed, it seemed that he had to take care of this matter.
After saying that, he walked through the crowd and walked straight to Li Buxiang.
"Li Buxiang, I haven't seen you for a few days, why are you like this?"
