Yamamoto Ichiro was now trembling with fear, his body going limp. He stammered, "W-what are you going to do?"
Ye Haochuan said indifferently, "Our feud should naturally be settled by us!"
"My grandfather said he'll spare your life!"
Yamamoto Ichiro said.
"Really? Too bad I don't believe that nonsense!"
Ye Haochuan snorted coldly, stomping down and crushing Yamamoto Ichiro into a bloody mess, blood gushing out as he screamed in agony, "Ahhh!"
"Grandpa, help, help me..."
Yamamoto Ichiro pleaded in anguish.
A flicker of reluctance crossed Yamamoto Musashi's eyes, but he quickly hardened his heart and said, "Kill him!"
Ye Haochuan unleashed a punch, smashing Yamamoto Ichiro's head into a bloody pulp, killing him instantly.
After Musashi Ichiro died, Ye Haochuan left the hut and returned to the cave entrance on the mountaintop.
As Ye Haochuan entered the cave, Yamamoto Musashi immediately greeted him, coldly saying, "You really are Chinese!"
Ye Haochuan shrugged and chuckled, "It seems you already guessed this question, so why bother asking me?"
Yamamoto Musashi said, "You killed my son, how could I let this go?"
Ye Haochuan glanced coldly at Yamamoto Musashi and said coldly, "Your son, Musashi Jiro, tried to kill me, but I didn't die; instead, he died. How do you intend to settle this score?"
Yamamoto Musashi coldly replied, "Musashi Jiro is my adopted son; I will handle him as I see fit!"
"snort!"
Ye Haochuan snorted coldly and turned to walk outside.
Yamamoto Musashi said coldly, "I don't want to hear another word from you insulting my son, or I won't hesitate to send you to your death myself!"
Ye Haochuan paused for a moment, then continued walking out.
Yamamoto Musashi snorted coldly and moved to block Ye Haochuan.
"Musashi, Musashi, what do you want to do?"
Ye Haochuan frowned slightly, staring warily at Yamamoto Musashi.
"I told you, you just killed my son, so of course I'm going to settle the score with you!"
Yamamoto Musashi gritted his teeth and said bitterly.
"Heh, don't forget, it was your son who provoked me first. I was just acting in self-defense!"
Ye Haochuan smiled.
"justifiable defense?"
Yamamoto Musashi sneered, "If you hadn't ambushed my son first, how could he have been injured, much less killed! So, you must give me an explanation today. Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite!"
Ye Haochuan snorted coldly and said, "Since that's the case, what explanation do you want from me? Do you want money? If so, I'm sorry, money is nothing to me; I can give you plenty."
"money?"
Yamamoto Musashi narrowed his eyes, his expression sinister. "Let me tell you, the one thing I have plenty of is money. But you killed my son. Do you think I'll let you go?"
Ye Haochuan snorted coldly and said, "I advise you to stop thinking about these things. What do you want?"
Yamamoto Musashi sneered, "You stole my island nation's treasures and murdered my son; how could I let you get away with this?"
Ye Haochuan said coldly, "What did I steal from Japan?"
Yamamoto Musashi said, "You stole my island nation's treasures and murdered my island nation's samurai. This constitutes a crime, and I can sentence you to prison!"
Ye Haochuan sneered, "Where's your evidence? Show it to me. If you can't produce any evidence, don't even think about putting me in jail."
Yamamoto Musashi gave a cold laugh. "Fine, you just wait!"
Then he turned and walked in one direction. After a moment, he came from that direction with a group of people, the leader of whom was the Prime Minister of the island nation.
"Ye Haochuan, you stole our island nation's precious medicinal herbs and slaughtered our island nation's samurai. This time, you won't escape!"
The Prime Minister wore an expression of utter grief and indignation.
Ye Haochuan laughed and said, "Prime Minister, please don't make false accusations. I don't know you at all; I was just passing through!"
The Prime Minister said, "Ye Haochuan, stop lying to us! You were clearly inside the hut just now, how could you have come out of this cave? You must have taken the opportunity to infiltrate our Musashi family and steal our family's secret manuals!"
Ye Haochuan shook his head. "Prime Minister, you're overthinking things. I just met a samurai from an island nation outside and chatted with him. What secret manual would I have gotten? Besides, your island nation's samurai aren't that strong; they're not worth me stealing!"
"You're talking nonsense!"
The Prime Minister roared.
Throughout his life, he hated nothing more than people saying that Japanese samurai were not very strong, especially in a great country like China. Japanese samurai were considered inferior, and they were at the bottom of the social hierarchy in China.
Yamamoto Musashi said, "Prime Minister, please don't get too agitated. I believe Ye Haochuan's words; they definitely aren't true!"
"But......"
The Prime Minister hesitated.
"Your Excellency, you don't believe him? Do you also think I'm lying?"
Yamamoto Musashi looked at the Prime Minister with a puzzled expression.
"Of course not!"
The Prime Minister quickly waved his hand and said, "Of course I believe you."
Ye Haochuan curled his lip. He didn't believe that the Prime Minister would trust Yamamoto Musashi. That old fox was very cunning.
Seeing this, Yamamoto Musashi's expression softened slightly, and he said to Ye Haochuan, "Since you're not a thief, why did you steal my things?"
Ye Haochuan said, "Prime Minister, isn't that a bit ridiculous?"
"Isn't that so? You must know that the Musashi family's treasure vault can only be opened by direct descendants or legitimate heirs; no one else can enter."
