Because blood kept coming out of his mouth, Hirayama Jiro's words were all unclear.

"Hingshan! What happened..."

Before Mizuno finished speaking, several knives suddenly appeared from behind Hirayama and from his chest.

After the knives were withdrawn from Hingshan's body, the lifeless Hingshan fell softly to the ground.

After Hirayama fell to the ground, Mizuno finally saw clearly who the people standing behind Hirayama were and who stabbed him down.

"You...?!" After seeing the appearance of these people clearly, Mizuno's pupils shrank suddenly.

With just one glance, Mizuno recognized who these people were.

They are all his disciples.

To be more precise, they are all new disciples who have recently joined his sect.

"What are you doing!" Mizuno yelled, "Killing your fellow seniors! What on earth are you going to do!"

Mizuno's new disciples ignored Mizuno's question.

Carrying only the knives still dripping blood in their hands, they walked slowly towards Mizuno.

Seeing that the negotiation was useless, Mizuno could only pull out his sword with a sullen face.

"drink--!"

Mizuno let out a powerful kiai and swung his sword towards the disciple who was walking at the front.

clang!

It's a pity that his sword was blocked by this disciple effortlessly.

"What...!" After his sword was blocked, a look of disbelief appeared on Mizuno's face.

After all, they were the new disciples recruited by himself, so Mizuno still had some impression of these disciples.

In his impression, his new disciples are not that strong.

While Mizuno was still stunned, several other people came towards Mizuno with swords.

Although Mizuno fought hard, it was difficult for his two fists to defeat his four-handed opponent.

After Mizuno blocked one person's attack with his sword, the other person saw the opportunity and slashed Mizuno in the abdomen with his sword.

The wound was very large. Judging from the amount of bleeding, the wound on Mizuno's abdomen was considered fatal. It was likely that the internal organs in the abdomen had been cut.

"Well..." Mizuno spit out blood and felt that his strength seemed to be flowing out from the wound in his abdomen along with the blood.

Even with no injuries on his body, Mizuno was no match for these people.

Now that his abdomen has been injured, he is no longer a match for these people.

Although he still clutched the knife tightly, he was eventually chopped to death by these people...

"Let's go." After confirming that Mizuno was dead, the leader of the disciples pursed his lips and said, "Go and kill all our senior brothers."

When he mentioned the word "senior brother", this person specifically emphasized his tone, and his expression became ferocious as his tone increased.

…

…

At this moment——

In a certain alley in Kyoto——

"Hey, junior brother, is there really an izakaya with great tasting drinks here?"

"really."

"Would anyone really open a home in a place like this..."

Five senior senior fellow students from the Qing Academy, led by a junior fellow student who had just joined the academy, walked slowly towards a dark alley.

Behind these five senior brothers were four other junior brothers who had also just started.

There are a total of 10 people in this group - 5 senior brothers who have been in the library for some time, and 5 junior brothers who have only recently joined the library.

This group of people was one of the many "search teams" in the Seigakukan after receiving the call to "track down Ogata Ittosai".

Just now, one of the juniors in the group suddenly suggested that we go to an izakaya with good drinks that he had recently found to have some drinks and have a rest.

They had been searching aimlessly in Kyoto for half an hour and were already a little tired, so after this junior fellow student put forward his proposal, it was approved by everyone else.

Just like that - their junior brother led them into an alley that was deserted and dark.

The senior senior fellow students in this group asked over and over again, "Are we here yet?" and "How long do we have to go?"

And the junior fellow who was responsible for leading the way just kept saying "almost there", "almost there".

"That's enough! Are you kidding us?"

Finally, a senior brother with a hot temper yelled.

"How could there be an izakaya in such a ghost place... Ugh!"

Before this senior brother finished speaking, the rest of the words could no longer be uttered.

Because——the junior fellow who was leading the way suddenly turned around.

While turning around, he drew a knife and stabbed the senior brother in the chest.

Things happened too fast.

After the young junior brother who was leading the way suddenly made a "brother, friend and brother respect", the four junior brothers who were following silently also suddenly drew their swords and struck at the remaining senior brothers in front of them...

…

…

Similar scenes also occurred in other sword halls among the six major sword halls.

The masters of the remaining sword halls in the six major sword halls were assassinated by the new disciples in their halls who had just entered the halls recently.

It wasn't just the museum owner who was assassinated.

The old disciples who had been in the sword hall for a while, as well as a few new disciples, were also brutally slaughtered.

However - because these people were all slaughtered secretly, no one else noticed the great changes currently taking place in the six major sword halls...

The only owner who escaped the massacre was Inaba, the owner of the Metaphysics Hall.

The owner of Inaba, who was attacked by someone, was resting in a certain medical center.

Except for the few disciples who sent Master Inaba to the medical center, no one else knew which medical center Master Inaba was in.

And those disciples who sent Master Inaba to the medical clinic happened to be the old disciples who had been following Master Inaba for some years.
