"Your Majesty, rest assured, the Tokugawa family will certainly provide full assistance at this critical moment," Tokugawa said ambiguously.
Upon hearing this, everyone frowned, a hint of displeasure in their expressions.
"Prime Minister Tokugawa, will your Tokugawa family not even give face to His Majesty the Emperor?" an old man asked, clearly dissatisfied with the Tokugawa family.
“The elders in the family said that they should not be disturbed in their quest to reach the realm of divine ninja until the end of Japan,” Tokugawa said without blinking.
Everyone who heard this swallowed hard.
I never imagined that the Tokugawa family would actually have a divine ninja. Where in Japan have I ever heard of any family with such a powerful member?
The strongest among the various families is only at the Yin-Yang Realm.
Even the royal family probably only has these few offerings. Even if there are ancestors, there might be one or two at most, but they are definitely not at the level of a god-level ninja.
"The Tokugawa family has worked tirelessly for our country, so please don't make things difficult for us. Tell me how to deal with that demon," Emperor Akihito said, coughing. He was also feeling a bit uneasy.
Suddenly, a ninja emerged from the ground, bowed, and said, "Your Majesty, Genji Saburo requests an audience. He says he has a way to lure out that demon."
"Oh? The Minamoto family still has direct descendants. Please invite them in quickly," Emperor Akihito said hastily.
I was also touched. Finally, someone could share my burdens. These old guys are unreliable; they're good at lying, though.
A moment later, Genji Saburo walked in.
"Minamoto no Saburo greets His Majesty the Emperor. Oh dear, the Minamoto family has met with a terrible end." Minamoto no Saburo said sorrowfully.
"Please rise quickly, my dear minister. You just said you had a way to lure out that demon?" Emperor Akihito said, while helping Genjiro up from the ground.
Minamoto no Saburō: I @****. Didn't you hear what I just said?
"Yes, Your Majesty, that demon is my elder brother's daughter, Sakura. As long as she is in our hands, that demon will definitely come to save her," Genji Saburo said bitterly.
"I see. After this is accomplished, I will definitely help you establish the Genji clan, and you will be the current clan head." Emperor Akihito said excitedly, finally finding a solution.
“Thank you, Your Majesty the Emperor,” said Minamoto no Saburō, this was his true purpose.
"I wonder which one of you is willing to capture that traitorous woman? I will bestow upon her the title of Prince." Emperor Akihito walked to his seat and looked at the assembled officials.
The old ninja warriors looked at each other, and no one spoke.
Those top-tier elders were so frightened they ran back. Weren't these ordinary Heavenly Ninjas just going to their deaths?
Looking at these good-for-nothing old men who had no other skills than toying with college students, Emperor Akihito clenched his fist.
"Your Majesty, Sakura has been captured by me. However, she previously used the Genji family's money to purchase a bottle of the Immortal Elixir produced by that demon for 20 billion dragon coins," Genji Saburo said sorrowfully.
He felt that all this money belonged to him, and the sudden loss of 20 billion dragon coins was heartbreaking.
"What!"
Everyone was taken aback.
They knew the benefits of the Immortal Elixir; if they drank it regularly, they would be even more powerful when playing with female students in the future.
But you insist on spending 20 billion to buy a bottle that costs 1,000 Dragon Coins.
Isn't this treason and collusion with the enemy?
"Hmph, this is outrageous! Bring her up here!" Emperor Akihito roared.
A short while later, Genji Sakurako, dressed in a white dress, was brought in.
Seeing this, everyone swallowed hard, wishing they could interrogate him themselves, including Emperor Akihito.
"Minamoto no Sakurako, you have actually betrayed your country and colluded with the enemy. What is your punishment?" Emperor Akihito said, while considering whether or not to take her as a concubine.
“If you do this, the master will not let you off the hook,” said Genji Sakurako, looking at the group of disgusting faces.
"Your Majesty, the most urgent task is to contact the major families and the priests to annihilate this demon," said Okamura Honto.
He himself had no ideas, there was really nothing he could do, his wickedness was cut off when he was a child.
“Very well, which of you is willing to go and tell that demon?” Emperor Akihito replied.
Immediately, there was another moment of everyone looking at each other.
“Your Majesty, we can gather powerful warriors at Mount Fuji and send a few low-ranking ninjas to deliver a message,” a retainer said, standing up.
"Yes, approved. I'll trouble you all to contact the various factions." Emperor Akihito said wearily before leaving.
These old guys, normally when a campus beauty appears at a university, they'd all fight over her, but when something happens, they all cower like turtles.
...
underground.
Gu Yan then went to his two surviving maids.
After a long day, it's time to relax.
"Master!" the two women exclaimed joyfully upon seeing Gu Yan.
Gu Yan picked them up, one in each arm, and headed towards the Yuanzhi Group. Such a good thing had to be a reunion.
More than ten minutes passed.
Gu Yan was looking at the scenery from the top floor of a building with more than forty floors. A beautiful woman was kneeling on the ground, helping Gu Yan adjust his belt. Although there was some dirt on her face, she was still very beautiful.
There was also a young woman washing herself in the bathroom.
Gu Yan, on the other hand, closed his eyes and pondered the problem with trembling hands.
Sakurako Minamoto couldn't possibly betray him, so why isn't she here?
Were they arrested?
Gu Yan grinned and thought it over, and realized that this was the only possibility. Feeling annoyed, he took a step forward.
The beautiful woman suddenly rolled her eyes.
More than ten minutes passed.
The beautiful woman coughed as she walked towards the bathroom to switch places with her younger sister who had just come out. She went to wash off the dirt and the few white patches on her body, as she had accidentally vomited on her clothes and hair.
Gu Yan looked at the young woman, picked her up and carried her to the table. He then pinched her smooth chin and asked, "What's your name?"
“Master, this servant is Yuko, and my sister’s name is Xiangzi.” Yuko said, leaning against Kogen’s chest, her fair face slightly flushed.
She had never seen such a heroic man before; what woman wouldn't be moved?
Her useless husband had long been forgotten under the dual allure of the Bewitching Worm and ancient romance novels.
"Hmm, can you read?" Gu Yan asked with a half-smile after learning the name.
Genji Yuko knelt on the table, her face flushed, holding a document and reading it intently.
Koyo also stood on the ground, sighing inwardly, "Japanese women really understand men."
More than an hour passed.
Yuko, who was intently reading the document, broke out in a sweat, and her knees turned red, but her charming face showed a look of satisfaction.
Xiangzi stood aside, waiting to review the documents.
Another half hour passed.
Yuko slumped weakly onto the table, unconscious.
Gu Yan stretched his body and carried Xiangzi to the window.
Just as her toes touched the ground, Gu Yan frowned slightly.
