Zhu Zhuqing and Hu Liena also took a deep breath, stepped forward, and with six hearts united, their gazes gradually became firm:
"Since the people of Slaughter City are also willing to trust us and Teacher Xin, then we are willing to try."
Their voices overlapped in quiet harmony, not loud, yet filled with a resolve that could not be shaken. In that moment, something subtle but profound changed. The hesitation that once lingered in their hearts dissipated, replaced by a shared determination. Six individuals, once merely students bound by circumstance, now stood as one—ready to shoulder the burden of an entire city.
"Very good."
Seeing his disciples bravely take this step, Xin's face revealed a look of relief and a brilliant smile. He was very happy, much happier than becoming the Slaughter King and wielding the asura sword himself. For him, power had never been the end goal; witnessing the growth of his students, seeing them step into responsibility without retreat, was the true reward.
A powerful aura erupted from the Asura Demon Sword. Xin said:
"The Slaughter King governs Slaughter City and possesses the Forbidden Magic Domain. This Domain is even stronger than the Slaughter God Domain, bestowed by the asura sword, and can restrict Spirit Masters within the Domain from releasing Spirit Abilities."
As his words fell, the air seemed to freeze. A deep, oppressive energy spread outward from the blade, pressing against their senses like an invisible tide. It carried authority—ancient, absolute, and unyielding. This was not merely power; it was law given form.
"Asura Sword, do you approve of these disciples of mine?"
Xin's voice made the asura sword tremble, somewhat hesitant. Although these disciples performed very well, surpassing all previous challengers in Slaughter City, the one it most approved of was still you, Cherry Blossom Master! Woo woo woo~
The faint hum of the sword echoed like a reluctant sigh. It quivered in midair, as though weighing its options, unwilling yet unable to defy the will before it. The memory of being sent flying was still far too fresh.
A moment later, a dark Domain symbol appeared around all five of them.
The manifestation was sudden yet solemn. Symbols formed in the air like branded seals, each radiating a cold, ominous glow. They hovered just above their bodies, pulsing faintly as if syncing with their spirits.
The asura sword dared not disapprove, otherwise, it wouldn't be fun to be sent flying again.
The Domain symbols that appeared on Zhu Zhuqing and Ye Lingling were blood-red asura sword patterns with faint golden edges, while Ning Rongrong, Xiao Wu, and Hu Liena had silver-edged Asura blood sword patterns.
The difference was subtle but unmistakable. The golden-edged crimson symbols exuded a deeper authority, their presence heavier, more commanding. In contrast, the silver-edged patterns shimmered with sharp precision—no less formidable, but clearly secondary.
This meant that Zhu Zhuqing and Ye Lingling were the leaders of Slaughter City, possessing the strongest Forbidden Magic Domain, while Ning Rongrong, Xiao Wu, and Hu Liena were slightly inferior, with weaker Forbidden Magic abilities.
Even so, none of them showed dissatisfaction. If anything, the distinction only clarified their roles. Leadership was not about superiority—it was about responsibility. And the others, far from feeling diminished, stood as unwavering support, ready to reinforce and protect the balance they would build together.
"Go."
Xin withdrew his hand at this moment, and with a casual wave, he threw the asura sword, which landed perfectly at the highest point of the Slaughter King's hall. He said faintly:
"The new king of Slaughter City has appeared. Henceforth, any malicious killers or those who are utterly evil and defy the city's rules shall be executed by the asura sword!"
These words spread throughout all of Slaughter City.
Like a decree carved into the sky itself, his voice echoed through every alley, every arena, every shadowed corner where violence once ruled unchecked. The city, long accustomed to chaos, seemed to pause—if only for a fleeting second.
The high-hanging Asura Demon Sword was a warning and judgment to all slaughterers.
Suspended above the hall, it radiated a chilling presence, like an ever-watchful eye. It did not need to move to instill fear. Its mere existence was enough to remind every inhabitant that a new order had begun.
But clearly, the asura sword did not want to stay in this place, emitting a clanging sound, attempting to leave its highest position.
The blade trembled, letting out sharp metallic cries, as though protesting its assignment. Its aura flickered restlessly, resisting the stillness it was being forced into.
"I know you want to follow me, but the new king of Slaughter City has just been established, and everything restarts from the beginning. You are the divine artifact of Slaughter City. I hope you can help my disciples oversee this place. If the girls can truly manage it well, I promise I will personally come and take you."
Xin said to the asura sword.
His tone was calm, almost conversational, yet it carried an undeniable authority. It was not a command, but a promise—one the sword could not ignore.
Zhuqing and the others' personal strength was still slightly lacking in governing Slaughter City, so they needed a permanent helper.
The Asura Demon Sword was the best choice.
It was more than a weapon—it was a symbol, a deterrent, and a guardian all in one. With it watching over the city, even the most unruly forces would think twice before acting.
Having received Xin's approval, the Asura Demon Sword finally settled down.
Its trembling ceased, and its aura stabilized, reluctantly accepting its role. Though unwilling, it could not deny the weight of Xin's words.
You said it, you will personally come and take me.
"Marry?"
A question mark appeared above Xiao Wu's small head.
Teacher Xin wants to marry a Demon Sword?
Oh, Teacher Xin, don't marry a sword, marry me instead, okay?
What's so good about marrying a sword? It's cold and icy. Xiao Wu is a Soft Bones Rabbit, her bones are warm and soft, you can do anything with them, that's what's comfortable~
