It seems like there is only one way out while facing the fourth order jiangshi in chapter 18 of Jiangshi X by Norihiko Kurazono. https://youtu.be/T3aNmRu4S6I
Jiangshi X - Wow! We've got our trio trying to escape with the Princess after a powerful Jiangshi arrives.
The one is trying to tap into the powers of his father to stop this one and help them escape. It looks like he may actually succeed - but if he doesn't, it is going to be brutal.
Jiangshi X - The stakes are raised in Jiangshi X. They found their way to a safe house, but we learn more about the Princess. She is the reincarnated form of previous ones and only she holds the key to releasing the most powerful, evil Jiangshi from history.
So, she says if it looks like she'll get captured, she'll kill herself before allowing them to use her to free the monsters. That will then send her spirit onto the next, new person who becomes the key.
High stakes. We'll see where this goes.

Chapter 13 of Jiangshi X by Norihiko Kurazono feels super quick since it is full of action. But, we finally get to see Jiuli shine when others cannot! https://youtu.be/Dnfg0uia2nQ
Jiangshi X - Our group is on the run and it's hard. After they all kind of blame themselves for what happened, the Princess offers some solid advice to calm their nerves.
Then they're attacked. First by one, then the chapter ends with a whole group of Jiangshi.
Not looking great.
Jiangshi X - Emotional chapter after a week off. Our trio of teenage monk trainees are on the run with the princess. We get flashes of all the people we've met along the way who helped them.
There is a moment with Xiaohu that is pictured here where he breaks down after their initial escape. He blames himself for what happened to his Dad and it's such an emotional moment.
Okay, Jiangshi X. You've sold me on sticking around through this escape arc...for now.

Chapter 11 of Jiangshi X by Norihiko Kurazono is packed and finally have the "successors" start to do something. https://youtu.be/CUjn3ADRz6g
Jiangshi X - Remember how early on I said I was thinking this might turn into a series about our teenage trio of monks on the run from some evil forces? Yea, that's what's happening. Only they're also protecting a princess at the same time.
So, I mean...well done to me guessing, I suppose?

Jiangshi X - First off - I think what I predicted is happening. I think based on what has been happening that we're going to have our trio of teenage monk trainees on the run.
Second - holy crap. The pop of color in the very last panel where the only color was the red of the blood coming out of the stab wound. Just wow. Well done.
Jiangshi X - Today's word is betrayal. As in the person meant to protect the Princess betrayed everyone.
I like this series, but it is at the same time doing too much and not enough for me. It feels like it could end soon, but we will see.
Sick comeback from Jiangshi X
Jiangshi X - Exposition.
That was most of the chapter. A lot of exposition about the villain army and that they created the Jiangshi. So...yea.
Jiangshi X - All I can think of is that line from the film Stranger Than Fiction:
I've written papers on “Little did he know…”. I used to teach a class based on “Little did he know…”.’ I mean, I once gave an entire seminar on “Little did he know…”. Son of a bitch, Harold. “Little did he know…” means there’s something he doesn’t know. That means there’s something you don’t know. Did you know that?
Jiangshi X - So, this couple chapter arc of our trainee monks ends with their superior coming in to stop the Level 3 Jiangshi. However, something is coming. The past few chapters have been building to what feels like an invasion.
This can go a few different ways. We could be seeing an invasion changing the nature of the series to about the trio on the run after the fall of their support base. It could be leading up to a war with huge arcs about the war effort. Or it could be something else entirely.
We'll see.
Jiangshi X - How to Stop a Level 2 Jiangshi!
Step 1 - Make a plan
Step 2 - Have the Jiangshi follow the bait
Step 3 - Trap the Jiangshi
Step 4 - Rejoice, it's caught
Step 5 - Turn around to find a Level 3 Jiangshi has escaped and is on the loose.
Uh oh.
Jiangshi X - New mission for our trio in the new chapter. After a lot of exposition about the history of the Jiangshi and how they deep freeze/store the bodies as you can't exactly destroy them, we get onto the mission.
And, well, it's already a lot. Overnight at the vampire mausoleum and a Level 2 awoke!
My kids when I tell them to do any cleaning at all

Jiangshi X - Okay, you got me. This thing was an emotional gut punch mixed in with cool, vampire battle series.
As Xiaohu quietly leads, we saw flashbacks to the death of his parents. Then he comforts the little girl in town who also lost their parents to a Jiangshi.
Ugh! Heartbreaking moment that genuinely evoked tears.
