Before Xiao Chen and the others finished eating, Nakamura Kojiro came over in person.
Originally, he didn't need to come here in person. As a master who had reached the great perfection of Hua Jin and the leader of Moriyama Dao, he was also one of the giants in the entire island country's martial arts world!
If it was someone of the same age as him who was at the peak of the late stage of Hua Jin or had reached the great perfection of Hua Jin, he might not take it so seriously... But how old is Xiao Chen?
At the peak of the late stage of Hua Jin or even the great perfection of Hua Jin in his twenties, his future achievements are truly limitless!
Therefore, even Nakamura Kojiro would not be negligent at all. He would like to take this opportunity to make friends with Xiao Chen and then use it to implement their plan!
Seeing Nakamura Kojiro coming in, Xiaodao and others shut up to avoid being exposed.
"Everyone, haven't you finished eating yet?"
Nakamura Kojiro asked with a smile on his face.
"Haha, I've finished eating."
Xiao Chen smiled and asked Nakamura Kojiro to sit down.
"I have heard of Mr. Nakamura's name since I came to Gaoqi County... I wanted to visit him, but I thought I would wait until the Martial Arts Prodigy Tournament was over before bothering him. I didn't expect what happened just now."
"Mr. Tianhuang, don't take what happened just now to heart... I have already informed both sides, and they will not cause any more trouble! Moreover, with Mr. Tianhuang's strength, they will have to think twice before causing any trouble."
Nakamura Kojiro laughed.
"That's good. We brothers come out to train and don't want to attract too many enemies... If that person didn't want to seek revenge on my brother, I wouldn't have killed him."
Xiao Chen nodded and said.
"He is asking for trouble. Don't worry about it..."
Kojiro Nakamura didn't care much. Moriyama Dao had convened a martial arts genius competition, and he actually dared to seek revenge on someone. That would be a slap in Moriyama Dao's face. If he died, he died.
After chatting for a while, Nakamura Kojiro glanced at Xiaodao and others, and stayed on Li Hanhou for a few seconds.
Through his previous performance, he could tell that this big guy... should be the strongest person besides Xiao Chen!
"Mr. Tianhuang, I am also ignorant and have never heard of 'the best in the world'. When I first heard about it, I thought it was a joke, but I didn't expect... there is actually such a school."
Nakamura Kojiro retracted his gaze and said to Xiao Chen.
"Well, our school has been secluded for a hundred years and has hardly been concerned with worldly affairs. It's normal that Mr. Nakamura doesn't know."
Xiao Chen knew that Nakamura Kojiro was trying to find out their background, but he had already thought of an explanation, so he spoke it fluently.
"A while ago, our master suddenly told us that the island nation's martial arts would be in chaos, and asked us to leave the island, first for training, and second for contributing to the island nation's martial arts."
"Oh? It seems that Mr. Tianhuang's master is also an otherworldly expert."
Kojiro Nakamura was a little surprised, then said.
"Master...is indeed a great man."
Xiao Chen nodded, pretending to be mysterious and respectful.
"He hasn't been born for many years, but he knows everything in the world... I heard that he knew the previous emperor."
"oh?"
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Nakamura Kojiro was shocked. He knew the previous emperor?
"Then...how old is Master?"
"We don't know his age, but in our eyes, he is like a god."
Xiao Chen shook his head and muttered to himself, "I based this on an old fortune teller. I really don't know how old he is!" As for the previous emperor, he's dead anyway, there's no evidence, so I can just brag about it!
After hearing what Xiao Chen said, Nakamura Kojiro not only did not doubt it, but believed it even more. He even thought... Could it be that Xiao Chen's master was the same as the ancestor?
If that is true, then it is possible to live for endless years without knowing one's age!
Furthermore, only such an existence could cultivate a peerless genius like Xiao Chen, right?
Thinking of this, Nakamura Kojiro wanted to make friends with him even more. It would be fine if Xiao Chen came out to gain experience and then retired from the world, but if he didn't, he would definitely suppress the martial arts world for an era in the future!
"Mr. Tianhuang, after dinner, can we talk alone?"
Thoughts flashed through his mind as Nakamura Kojiro said to Xiao Chen.
"good."
Xiao Chen nodded. He also wanted to visit some closed places... The dungeon where the Chinese warriors were imprisoned was in an area that was not open to the public.
"Mr. Nakamura, I've finished eating."
"Well, let's go and talk now... As for you all, I'll make arrangements. Let them have a rest, especially those who are participating in the Martial Arts Prodigy Tournament, as they will have a fight in the afternoon."
Kojiro Nakamura said this very considerately.
"Then I'll trouble you, Mr. Nakamura."
After Xiao Chen finished speaking, he looked at Qin Jianwen.
"Take them to rest."
"good."
Qin Jianwen nodded.
Afterwards, everyone left the restaurant, and Kojiro Nakamura arranged for someone to take Xiaodao and others to the guest rooms.
Xiao Chen followed Nakamura Kojiro and entered the area not open to the public.
"Mr. Tianhuang, let me take you to meet Patriarch Moriyama first."
Nakamura Kojiro turned around and said to Xiao Chen.
"OK."
Xiao Chen was just thinking about finding an opportunity to see whether the statue of Patriarch Moriyama was the same one or there was another one.
Unexpectedly, Kojiro Nakamura provided an opportunity.
Nakamura Kojiro also had his own thoughts. Since Xiao Chen was so strong, his worship... would be much better than others.
He was even thinking about using secret methods to communicate with Patriarch Moriyama and let him show his divine power.
In this way, on the one hand, we can see what kind of person Xiao Chen's master is, and on the other hand, it will also let Xiao Chen know the background of Moriyama Dao!
If you want to make friends, you naturally have to show the corresponding strength!
Otherwise, why should others cooperate!
When we arrived at a large hall, we saw the statue of Moriyama, which had been placed on the edge of the arena in the morning, now enshrined in an altar.
"Mr. Tianhuang, this is the ancestor of our Moriyama Dao, Moriyama Patriarch."
Kojiro Nakamura introduced Xiao Chen.
"Yes, I saw him this morning..."
Xiao Chen nodded, showing respect.
Kojiro Nakamura stepped forward first, knelt on one knee and paid his respects.
"Mr. Nakamura, I'm sorry, but my master...forbids me to worship any statues."
Xiao Chen was too lazy to kneel, and said to Nakamura Kojiro.
After hearing what Xiao Chen said, Nakamura Kojiro was not angry, but felt that... Xiao Chen's master was very likely a "god", even stronger than Patriarch Moriyama, and had already transformed!
Xiao Chen stepped forward, casually made a greeting gesture, and stared at the statue, examining it carefully.
Soon, he was sure that the statue in front of him was the one he absorbed last night, not another one that was exactly the same!
Because there is not a single bit of spirituality on this statue!
Even though his gaze touched the eyes of the statue, there was still no reaction.
Kojiro Nakamura communicated with Elder Moriyama through a secret method...but to his surprise, there was a response in the past, but today there was no response at all.
This made Kojiro Nakamura stunned. What was going on?
Could it be that Master Moriyama is not at home?
Or, fell into a deep sleep?
But today is the battle between martial arts geniuses, and it is a good opportunity to absorb the power of faith. Will Patriarch Moriyama fall asleep?
Thinking of this, Nakamura Kojiro communicated with Moriyama Master again, but there was still no response.
Kojiro Nakamura was observing Xiao Chen, and Xiao Chen was also observing him out of the corner of his eye.
Xiao Chen saw that Nakamura Kojiro's expression was changing and he was muttering something. After thinking about it, he knew what he was doing.
"Heh...your ancestor is already dead, how could he care about you?"
Xiao Chen laughed secretly in his heart, but his face was full of respect, as if he didn't notice Nakamura Kojiro's actions.
After several attempts to communicate with Nakamura Kojiro without any response, his forehead began to sweat. What was going on?
"Mr. Nakamura, what's wrong?"
Xiao Chen felt that it was about time, so he asked.
"Ah? No, nothing."
Kojiro Nakamura shook his head and decided not to worry about the statue of ancestor Moriyama and why there was no reaction.
"Mr. Tianhuang, let's go to the side hall and talk."
"good."
Xiao Chen nodded, and left the main hall with Nakamura Kojiro and came to the side hall.
After the two sat down, someone brought them tea and then left.
Xiao Chen picked up the tea, took a sip, and didn't speak, just waiting quietly.
Kojiro Nakamura was made a little uneasy by the statue of Moriyama Reverend, and he didn't speak for a long time.
By the time he reacted, it was several minutes later.
"Oh, sorry, Mr. Tianhuang, I was distracted just now."
Nakamura Kojiro looked at Xiao Chen and said apologetically.
"Hehe, nothing much, but... is Mr. Nakamura in any trouble?"
Xiao Chen asked.
After hearing Xiao Chen's words, Nakamura Kojiro hesitated for a moment, thinking that Xiao Chen's master might be the same as Patriarch Moriyama, so he continued to speak: "I just communicated with Patriarch Moriyama, but he didn't react much."
"Oh? No reaction? Has this happened before?"
Xiao Chen asked seriously, but he almost burst out laughing in his heart. It would be strange if he had any reaction.
"No."
Kojiro Nakamura shook his head.
"It should be fine... It's lunch time now, right? Elder Moriyama might be taking a nap."
Xiao Chen talked nonsense casually.
"Ah? Taking a nap?"
Nakamura Kojiro's eyes widened. God also takes a nap? What nonsense!
"Yes, my master has the habit of taking a nap. When he is taking a nap, no one can wake him up."
Xiao Chen nodded.
Nakamura Kojiro, who originally didn't believe it, actually began to believe it after hearing this.
Taking a nap?
Could it be that Master Moriyama has developed a new habit of taking naps?
"Actually, the nap I'm talking about is different from the nap we take...Taking a nap can nourish your mind and soul."
Xiao Chen said slowly.
"Can it nourish the soul?"
Kojiro Nakamura was startled for a moment, then nodded. Perhaps Master Moriyama had also discovered a new way to nourish the soul!
At the same time, he was even more certain that Xiao Chen’s master was definitely not a human!
"Mr. Nakamura, let's talk about...what did you ask me to do?"
Xiao Chen was afraid that Nakamura Kojiro would ask more questions. He had just made up the story about taking a nap, and it was hard for him to come up with anything else.
