Tokyo, Imperial Palace.
The island nation was once the most supreme place, with imperial power that controlled everything!
But later... the imperial power weakened, the emperor's influence declined, and it was no longer possible to control the island country as before!
In the eyes of ordinary people, the royal family of the island country is just a symbol, but in the martial arts world of the island country, the emperor... is still supreme, equivalent to the leader of the martial arts world in China.
Even more influential than the leader of the martial arts world!
The Imperial Palace covers a large area, and there is an open area in the middle of a garden.
In the very middle stands a building, a typical island-style building that looks ancient and has a sense of age.
In fact, this building has been around for quite some time!
Inside the building, an old man was kneeling on a cushion, not making any noise.
The old man looked a little thin, and didn't seem much different from an ordinary old man... But if there were a master here, he would definitely be shocked, because not only was he motionless, he didn't even have a breath!
It was as if... he was not a living person, but a dead object!
If you hadn’t seen it with your own eyes, you would never have noticed... that there was an old man kneeling on a cushion!
The room was very quiet...
Not far from the old man, there was an incense burner with smoke rising from it, adding a touch of Zen.
After an unknown amount of time, the old man suddenly opened his eyes.
At his age, his eyes should be cloudy... but there was a gleam of brilliance in his eyes!
"Come in!"
The old man spoke slowly, his voice very calm.
As he spoke, a man covered in a black robe came in from outside. It was impossible to tell whether he was a man or a woman, young or old.
He came to five meters away from the old man, knelt on one knee, and a hoarse voice came from the black robe: "Emperor!"
"Um."
The old man looked at the man in black robe and nodded.
"Get up and talk."
"Hi!"
The man in black robe agreed and stood up.
"how's it going?"
The old man poured a cup of tea from the teapot beside him, took a sip, and asked slowly.
"Ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai is in Mingji County. It looks like he is coming to Tokyo..."
The black-robed man replied.
"Besides the ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai?"
The old man asked again.
"Sword God Xue Chunqiu...went to Cangmen Mountain and has temporarily lost his trace! And there is also Thunder God. After he was injured and left last time, he never showed up again. But in Jiju, there was a master who fought with him, and he was suspected to be Thunder God..."
The man in black robe kept reporting. If Xiao Chen was here, he would be very surprised that all the masters from China were targeted!
"Keep watching, don't alarm them... Pay special attention to the Ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai. When he arrives in Tokyo, remember to tell me."
The old man said slowly.
"Hi."
The man in black robe nodded and hesitated.
"Emperor, do you need to pay attention to him personally? The white robe and I should be able to kill him."
"You may not be his match."
The old man shook his head.
"There are many Chinese warriors who are experts in the island country... The one I find the most difficult to understand is the Ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai! He may be able to fight with me!"
Hearing the old man's words, the man in black was shocked. Can he fight with the Emperor?
You know, the Emperor has been in the half-step innate realm for many years and has encountered a bottleneck... Perhaps he only needs an opportunity to step into a new realm, that is, the innate realm!
"So, don't be careless, keep a close eye on him, and tell me when the time comes."
The old man...the emperor of the island nation, said in a deep voice.
"In addition to him, the Sword God Xue Chunqiu... must also be found!"
"Hi!"
The man in black robe nodded.
"Has there been any news from various places?"
The emperor thought of something and asked slowly.
"The martial arts genius battle over Moriyama Road has ended, and some unexpected things happened..."
The man in black robe reported.
"Oh? What's the accident?"
The Emperor looked at the man in black robe and seemed to be interested.
The man in black robe reported the news he had received to the emperor.
After listening to the report from the man in black robe, the emperor narrowed his eyes. The best in the world?
He had never heard of this school!
Is it really a secluded school?
Why did Nakamura Kojiro say that the best in the world was created by Moriyama’s friend?
"Moriyama...should he be transforming soon?"
The old man narrowed his eyes and a thought flashed through his mind.
"You said that Tianhuang Tuoyi is only in his twenties?"
"Yes."
"What does he look like?"
“It’s not clear yet.”
"Send someone to ask if there are any videos or anything... The island country is in chaos, and the world's best suddenly appeared. How can it be such a coincidence."
The old man began talking to himself at the end.
"Hi!"
"Check the whereabouts of the world's best. Also, check the whereabouts of this world's best!"
"Hi!"
"Have the major ninja schools been in contact?"
"Already contacted."
"What about the hidden school?"
“Also contacted.”
"Very good...you go first."
The old man nodded.
"Hi."
The man in black robe nodded and left silently.
After the man in black robe left, the emperor took another sip of tea and slowly put it down.
"With so many transformations... both inside and outside, there will be chaos."
The Emperor muttered to himself.
"The Chinese warriors are here, so we can just clean up some people... The imperial power is still supreme, how can you ignore it! Clean up some people, kill the ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai and others... Maybe their cultivation method will be my opportunity, allowing me to step into the innate realm!"
Thinking of the Chinese warriors, a face suddenly appeared in the emperor's mind, and he couldn't help but frowned.
Although, there has been no news about this person in recent years and he is no longer active.
But he knew... this person... must still be alive. Even if he died, this person might not die!
"When I enter the Xiantian realm, I should be able to fight you, right?"
The emperor slowly clenched his fists, and his entire aura... suddenly changed!
At this moment, he is no longer an ordinary old man, but... an emperor who is decisive and ruthless in killing!
…
Xiao Chen never expected that his performance in the martial arts genius battle had reached the ears of the Emperor.
Likewise... he would never have thought that all the masters of China were under the surveillance of the Emperor!
At this time, he had left Gaoqi County and came to another county, where he found the shrine that Nakamura Kojiro mentioned!
"You guys wait for me outside...Hao Jian, you accompany me in. We'll keep a low profile and leave once we're done."
Xiao Chen looked at the shrine in the distance and said to everyone.
"good."
Everyone nodded.
Originally, Qin Jianwen also wanted to follow in to see how Xiao Chen used the "God" as nourishment, but after thinking about something, he gave up the idea.
As long as he doesn't leave, he will definitely have the chance to see it.
And now... keeping a low profile is the most important thing.
With so many of them entering, it would definitely attract attention... Although they might not necessarily suspect anything, it would still be bad to attract attention.
A few minutes later, Xiao Chen and Hao Jian entered the shrine.
There were quite a few people in the shrine.
Xiao Chen and Hao Jian came to the temple leisurely without attracting anyone's attention.
"Someone is here...How about coming back in the evening?"
Hao Jian said in a low voice.
"Let's observe the situation first. If it doesn't work now, we have to find a better way..."
Xiao Chen also spoke in a low voice, communicating with Hao Jian.
"Um."
Hao Jian nodded and said nothing more.
The statue enshrined in this shrine is half human, half demon... At least, that's what Xiao Chen and Hao Jian thought.
A human head, a human body, a snake tail, and no legs!
"I heard that there is a country called Yamata no Orochi on the island. Could this guy be Yamata no Orochi?"
Hao Jian looked at him for a few seconds and asked Xiao Chen.
"no."
Xiao Chen shook his head and looked around. There was no chance during the day, so it seemed that he really had to go there at night!
He looked at the statue and its surroundings. There was energy attached to the statue, but it was not strong.
In other words, there must be another statue!
I wonder if there are any traps around here?
Is there an underground tunnel like the one at Moriyama Shrine?
Xiao Chen looked around but couldn't find the mechanism. He couldn't help but frown. Is there no mechanism?
Then... where is the statue with the spiritual mark attached to it?
Could it be like the Hokkai Shrine? In a closed area?
Thinking of this, Xiao Chen took Hao Jian out of the temple and continued to stroll around the shrine.
As expected, there are areas of the shrine that are not open to the public!
This made Xiao Chen feel at ease, it should be like the Beihai Shrine!
"Let's go first. Looks like we have to stay here tonight."
Xiao Chen said to Hao Jian.
"Um."
Hao Jian nodded and left the shrine with Xiao Chen.
"How about it?"
Xiaodao asked after they got back to the car.
"There's not much chance during the day, let's try again at night..."
Xiao Chen lit a cigarette.
"Heiyi, drive and find a place to stay."
"good."
Hei Yi agreed, started the car and drove away from the shrine.
Half an hour later, they checked into a villa. Although they couldn't each have their own room, it was still spacious.
"Let's take a break and then go out for dinner."
Xiao Chen sat on the sofa and said to everyone.
"Um."
Everyone nodded and sat down, chatting.
"Brother Chen, after this is over, where are we going next?"
Hei Yi took out a map and placed it on the coffee table.
"Qingshan Valley, there are Yin Yang Masters there... I want to go and see them."
Xiao Chen said to Hei Yi.
"Onmyoji... is mysterious and unpredictable. Are we going to fight him now?"
Qin Jianwen frowned slightly and asked.
"No matter how mysterious it is, it still depends on its strength... We are just going to take a look, a very low-key one."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"Don't worry, I will keep a low profile until the Red Army attracts their attention."
"That's good."
Qin Jianwen nodded.
"No news from the Red Army yet?"
Xiao Chen asked.
"It should be soon."
As soon as Qin Jianwen finished speaking, his cell phone rang.
"Hello? Yes, I am...Okay, name a price."
Hearing Qin Jianwen's words, Xiao Chen's eyes lit up slightly. Did the Red Army agree?
As long as you agree, everything else will be easy.
To be more pretentious, he is not short of money at all now!
So, just let the Red Army name their price... As long as we get the job done, we won't mind their money!
"Fifty million dollars."
Qin Jianwen looked at Xiao Chen and said in a low voice.
"So low? Promise!"
Xiao Chen was a little surprised. These guys from the Red Army... didn't have much of an appetite.
"Okay, we agree... We'll tell you the specific tasks after we discuss them!"
Qin Jianwen said on the phone.
