Why investigate them?
Shen Xiaoyue didn't quite understand.
“There was some conflict with them, and tonight they sent a group of people to kidnap my wife.”
"Oh? Mr. Lin, are you alright?"
"It's alright, those ninjas are all dead."
Lin Jinglong responded calmly.
Shen Xiaoyue clicked her tongue in amazement, and was also very impressed with Lin Jinglong's martial arts skills.
"Alright! I'll have the family investigate immediately!"
After agreeing, the two parties ended their contact.
Lin Xi was the one who flattered him.
"As expected of Master Lin, he has connections in Kyoto. I've heard that various powerful families gather there; it's a place that devours people without spitting out the bones."
"After cleaning this place up, leave a few of your strongest men behind to secretly watch over Mu Qing from now on, and make sure that what happened today doesn't happen again."
"Yes! I'll go prepare right away."
Lin Xi responded seriously.
Not long after that.
News of Shen Xiaoyue finally arrived.
"We found out. The current head of the Japanese consulate is named Ryuzawa Yuji, the head of the Ryuzawa family, a Japanese ninja clan. However, he also has another identity."
"The pinnacle of Japanese martial arts, the spies trained by the Tenkage Martial Academy, including that man named Ishikawa."
"Their main purpose in coming to Great Xia is to steal Great Xia's ancient martial arts heritage."
Shen Xiaoyue quickly explained the situation.
When Lin Jinglong heard the name Long Zexiongzhi, a cold glint flashed in his eyes.
"Does Mr. Lin need our help?"
"We don't need to deal with the Longze family, but the Tianying Martial Academy is much more troublesome, with many powerful experts."
"Perhaps our Shen family can mediate and resolve the conflict between you."
Shen Xiaoyue tentatively said.
"No need for that. Just write a letter to Ryuzawa Yuji for me."
"Write what?"
"Tell him to wash his neck clean and wait for me in Kyoto. The day I go to Kyoto will be the day he dies!"
Lin Jinglong's words were filled with anger.
Anyone who dares to touch Chen Muqing is defying his will and will inevitably pay the price!
Shen Xiaoyue was shocked on the other end of the phone.
But at the same time, I was also a little envious.
That woman named Chen Muqing is so lucky.
If Lin Jinglong could act so impulsively for her, that would be great, after all, it's the Tianying Martial Academy!
Shen Xiaoyue blushed as she thought of this.
However, she quickly became serious.
"Okay! I will convey Mr. Lin's message!"
The next day arrived.
The Japanese Consulate, inside a quaint building.
Long Zexiong smashed the vase next to him.
He was holding a letter from the Shen family.
"presumptuous!"
"That bastard not only killed more than a dozen of my Jonin, but he even dared to threaten me!"
"The day you arrive in Kyoto will be the day my ambition, Longze, perishes?"
"You're dreaming!"
Ryuzawa Yuji's expression was contorted as he tugged at the collar of his samurai uniform to try and catch his breath.
At this moment.
The wooden door was pulled open.
A beautiful woman dressed in a black kimono with her hair piled up on top of her head appeared; it was Matsushima Keiko, whom Lin Jinglong had met once before.
She witnessed Ishikawa's downfall firsthand.
He later fled in a sorry state and returned to Kyoto immediately, not daring to have any conflict with Lin Jinglong.
“Mr. Longze, I told you long ago that Lin Jinglong’s strength is unfathomable and cannot be dealt with by ordinary means. Why did you still fail?”
Keiko Matsushima's voice carried a hint of displeasure and blame.
Long Zexiong's expression twisted instantly, barely able to suppress his inner rage, especially the feeling of humiliation, which made him want to tear everything in front of him to shreds.
But the woman in front of them had a special identity.
She is the daughter of a Heavenly-level ninja from their Tenkage Martial Academy, and also a steward at the Japanese consulate.
"Miss Hui is right."
"I definitely miscalculated this time."
"Don't you know what you're asking?"
Out of respect for that powerful Heavenly Shadow expert, Ryuzawa Yuji forcibly suppressed his anger and gritted his teeth to question Matsushima Keiko.
She simply smiled faintly.
He knelt before the table and silently poured himself a cup of tea.
"Mr. Ryuzawa seems to have forgotten that Mr. Ishikawa had the identity of a special envoy from Japan, but he was crippled in Nanjing."
"If you want to settle scores with Lin Jinglong, why send ninjas to sneak around and cause him trouble?"
"Why not make the matter public, go all out, and suppress Lin Jinglong in one fell swoop!"
Long Zexiong suppressed his anger.
"But if we do that, it will attract the attention of the Great Xia government, and we might get into trouble."
"Don't you know that our purpose has already been exposed? Moreover, Lin Jinglong was the one who made the mistake first, so it's perfectly reasonable for us to retaliate. They dare not say anything!"
"I said with great certainty," said Keiko Matsushima.
Long Zexiong was still hesitant.
She added, "And you forgot, including your Longze family and the Ishikawa family, they have invested huge sums of money in Daxia over the years!"
"We have cultivated so many overt and covert forces, all of which have grown up, and so many families are willing to pledge allegiance to Japan."
"If you're worried about displeasing the Great Xia government, why not let these families take action? It'll be more interesting to see the Great Xia people fighting like dogs!"
Keiko Matsushima spoke in a soft, playful tone.
Long Zexiongzhi also realized what was happening, and he immediately clapped his hands and said, "Miss Huizi is right. We should let the Great Xia forces, who are loyal to Japan, take action and let them fight like dogs!"
Two more days have passed.
After Lin Jinglong finished refining the last batch of pills at Qinglong Group and carefully stored all the pills away, he was satisfied.
He got up and stretched.
"It's finally over."
At that moment, he suddenly received a message from Nanjing.
