Looking inside, apart from a very large place for worshipping the gods, there was almost nothing else.
Pei Yi chimed in, "The main purpose of this Tokyo shrine isn't actually for worship, but rather as a forum for these high-ranking officials to discuss how to divide the spoils, so it's best to keep it simple."
Ye Feng nodded. He naturally knew that the Tokyo Shrine was just an excuse used by the higher-ups in Japan. Otherwise, why would there be a martial arts tournament?
There's probably a lot more to this than meets the eye!
Moreover, rushing in rashly might cause some unexpected changes.
soon.
They entered the Tokyo Shrine, but instead of the shrine, they came to a large gate at the back.
The samurai walked over and opened the door, then said to Yefeng, "Honorable guest, you may come in now."
Ye Feng glanced at Pei Yi, who nodded to him, and then he stepped inside.
As soon as I entered.
Yao Yao suddenly said, "Young Master, I sensed the aura of the Demonic Sect, but it seems to have happened not long ago."
Upon hearing Yao Yao's words, Ye Feng immediately tensed up and said to her, "Don't let your guard down, the Demon Sect members are still hiding here!"
"Yes!" Yao Yao immediately agreed, then showed an unprecedented seriousness.
Yao Yao has never let her guard down when it comes to the Demon Sect, after all, they are the ones who took away her master, Xi Yao!
"Lord of the Palace, should I stay here and keep watch?" Pei Yi asked.
"It's alright!" Ye Feng shook his head and said, "Just come in with me. I'll protect you if anything happens."
"Thump!"
"Thump!"
The bamboo tube, filled with water, was thrown down onto the rocks below, then the water was poured into the pond. After losing its weight, the bamboo tube was lifted up again.
This process is repeated.
"Thump!"
"Thump!"
Amidst simple scenery.
Ye Feng suddenly pushed open the door, and all the high-ranking officials of Sakura Country who were participating in the martial arts tournament looked in his direction with extreme vigilance.
Upon seeing Ye Feng arrive, a thin young man immediately walked over with a smile, and said in the Dragon Kingdom language, "You must be Ye Feng, right? We know you. You've caused quite a stir in the Sakura Kingdom these past few days!"
"Who are you?" Ye Feng asked directly.
"You bastard!" A man in a kimono strode over aggressively, pointing at Ye Feng and shouting, "You Chinese, show some respect to our Palace Master!"
"Don't get angry, it's not good for the guests!" The young man smiled, stepped in front of the man in the kimono, and then said to Ye Feng, "I am the owner of Tokyo Shrine and the head priest of Tokyo Shrine. I don't have a name, just call me the head priest of the shrine."
"Oh." Ye Feng picked at his ear and said casually, "I'm here to participate in the martial arts tournament. Do you have a problem with that?"
These words instantly enraged the high-ranking officials of Japan!
What gives him the right to act so arrogantly in front of the Palace Master of the Divine Palace?
Just as they were about to get angry.
The head priest of the Jingu Palace opened his right hand to stop them, then smiled at Yefeng and said, "Of course you can. Based on the number of black cards, it seems you will be the last person to participate in the martial arts tournament."
“Of course.” Ye Feng took out the black card and then casually threw it on the ground. “Since you’ve already participated, this thing is no longer of any use to you.”
The Palace Master of the Divine Palace was not angry. Instead, he calmly said, "Please do as you wish."
That's all.
The Palace Master ignored Ye Feng and slowly walked to his seat, sitting down quietly.
Ye Feng smiled at the Palace Master of the Divine Palace, "It seems he's quite a shrewd person, not simple at all!"
"However, we don't know about their strength."
He said this.
Ye Feng walked to his seat. Since everyone else was already seated, the remaining seat was undoubtedly his.
At this moment, Yao Yao and Pei Yi stood behind him, looking rather thin.
After all, the other participants in the martial arts tournament all had exceptionally tall and strong subordinates.
"Huh?" Ye Feng suddenly sensed a murderous intent coming from beside him. He turned his head and was shocked to find an old man staring at him fiercely. He couldn't help but ask, "Old man, what are you doing? I didn't do anything to you!"
The old man immediately started cursing, pointing at Ye Feng and saying a lot of things, but unfortunately Ye Feng couldn't understand him.
Night Breeze frowned and asked Pei Yi, "What is he saying?"
Pei Yi said somewhat awkwardly, "This is the head of the Uesugi family. Among the large number of powerful figures from Japan that you have killed recently, almost a third of them are from the Uesugi family."
After hearing this, Ye Feng smiled helplessly, nodded to the old man beside him, and then ignored him.
Upon seeing this, the head of the Uesugi family immediately tried to draw his katana and slash at the night wind.
As Ye Feng sipped his tea, his gaze suddenly shifted to the head of the Uesugi family, and a dangerous aura instantly emanated from him.
"Bang!"
A thin needle deflected the samurai sword from the hand of the Uesugi family patriarch.
The Palace Master shook his head at him and said, "Don't get angry, or you'll have to leave now."
"Hmph!" The head of the Uesugi family snorted coldly. He twisted his numb wrist a few times, then turned his head away, unwilling to look at Ye Feng again.
The Palace Master then addressed the arriving guests with some common phrases used at banquets.
Pei Yi translated everything for Ye Feng, but Ye Feng waved his hand and said, "You only need to translate the important information for me, the rest is not necessary, or you can just listen to when the fighting starts."
“Okay!” Pei Yi nodded, wiping away her sweat. This would greatly reduce her workload.
Yao Yao was like a wildcat facing danger, constantly looking around, her heart growing increasingly uneasy.
About half an hour later.
The shrine master stopped speaking, but the other high-ranking officials of the Sakura Kingdom began to speak one after another. Ye Feng couldn't understand them, but it seemed that they were fighting over something.
Money? Power? Influence?
Night Breeze shook his head. These people from the Cherry Blossom Country like these things, and what they say will definitely revolve around these three things.
Another half hour passed.
Ye Feng couldn't help but say to Pei Yi, "Translate this for me, and ask when the martial arts tournament starts!"
“Okay!” Pei Yi nodded, then loudly asked the Palace Master of the Divine Palace.
These words were spoken.
Countless high-ranking officials of the Sakura Kingdom were stunned and turned their gazes toward Ye Feng.
"Um...is something wrong?" Ye Feng asked, frowning in confusion.
