Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Even though Ye Chen spoke calmly, Chiba Yoshiko could still sense a cold killing intent from him. It was this killing intent that made her not dare to show any disrespect to Ye Chen.
Even after Ye Chen offended the four super forces of Japan at the same time, she did not dare to resist despite her fear.
She knew that the entire Japan would reject her ever since she was pursued by the Chiba family. She and Ye Chen were on the same boat now.
After Ye Chen burned the bodies of Chiba Masawa and Yagyu Takeken with a fireball, he headed to the Chiba residence in the center of Fukuoka City under Chiba Yoshiko’s lead.
…
The moment they moved, in a mansion in Tokyo hundreds of kilometers away, there was a room that looked like a shrine. It was filled with sandalwood tablets on the altar. Various names were written on them.
Pa!
At that moment, a wooden tablet located right in the middle on the first row of the altar with the name ‘Yagyu Takeken’ on it exploded all of a sudden.
Plop!
The sudden turn of events scared the old man on duty so much that he fell to the ground. Subsequently, he stood up and ran out of the room in a hurry.
“Oh no, oh no. Young Master Takeken is dead!”
…
At the same time, there was a spacious room in the Chiba residence. The aroma of wine filled the air.
The upper echelons of the Chiba family all took off their shoes and knelt before the table. They looked at a middle-aged man in hunting clothes and a black hat respectfully.
The middle-aged man had a mustache, and there was a sindoor between his brows. He closed his eyes to rest as if he was asleep, and there was a power that came out of his brows vaguely that made the people’s hearts beat fast.
Many occasionally looked at him with respect because he was Hidemoto Jiro, the disciple of the Hidemoto clan’s head, one of the four Yin Yang Master Clans. He was also a high-level Yin Yang Master.
Below him sat an old man in a plain kimono with white hair. The old man looked to be in his 80s. His skin was dark and yellowish, his face was full of wrinkles. He looked like an old man on the verge of death.
However, all the members of the Chiba family were trembling in fear before him because the old man was the soul of the Chiba family – Chiba Izumi!
At that moment, Hidemoto Jiro, who was sitting at the head of the table, opened his eyes and looked at Chiba Izumi with a gaze that made people unable to look at him directly.
“Patriarch Chiba, it’s already been an hour since the news came from Chiba Masawa, hasn’t it? Is there still no result? My time is limited, I can’t be wasting my time here with you.”
Chiba Izumi’s expressions froze and he said immediately, “Sir, please wait patiently. Perhaps Masawa is already on his way back. I’ll get someone to contact him now!”
After saying that, he looked at the person next to him.
The other person nodded slightly and took out his phone. Just as he was about to contact Chiba Masawa, the door of the room was suddenly slammed open by a strange gust of wind. Subsequently, a black shadow shot into Hidemoto Jiro’s hand.
“There’s no need to contact him!”
Hidemoto Jiro’s expression changed, he suddenly stood up, “The Shikigami I left on Chiba Masawa told me that he’s dead!”
The moment that was said, everyone in the room was shocked.
“Masawa is dead?”
Chiba Izumi was slightly taken aback before he said in disbelief, “That’s impossible. Masawa brought over ten heaven-class ninjas that my Chiba family had trained for decades with him before he left. He even had Yagyu Takeken with him. Who else can kill him?”
The other members of the Chiba family were shocked as well.
The Chiba family had been keeping a low profile all these years to strengthen themselves. Among them, the most terrifying people were the 18 heaven-class ninjas. These people had undergone intense training since they were young and were proficient in assassination, poison, and other specialized skills.
Even a Martial Dao master would have to retreat if the 18 of them joined forces. How could they fail? Furthermore, the most outstanding genius of the Yagyu family, Yagyu Takeken, was helping them. Yagyu Takeken was the person closest to achieving Sword Saint!
Meanwhile, Chiba Yoshiko only had Miyamoto Take’s help!
It was impossible for a mere Miyamoto-san to do that!
“It’s the truth!”
For the first time, anger appeared on his calm expression, “Shikigami told me that not only Chiba Masawa is dead, even Yagyu Takeken is dead as well. Furthermore, they died at the hands of a Chinese young man!”
The entire room exploded into an uproar hearing what he said!
Not only was Chiba Masawa dead, even Yagyu Takeken was dead!
And he had died at the hands of a young Chinese man!
How was this possible?!
Even Chiba Izumi, who was over 70 years old could not help but ask angrily, “Who is this person? How dare he offend both my Chiba family and the Yagyu family?”
“That’s your problem!”
Hidemoto Jiro grinned coldly, “In order to prevent our four Yin Yang Master Clans’ plan from being leaked, Chiba Yoshiko and that Chinese overlord must die. Otherwise, everyone in the Chiba family will kill themselves by stabbing their own stomachs and then hand over their souls to Lord Soul Eater!”
Hearing the name Lord Soul Eater, Chiba Izumi’s body trembled violently as he hurriedly stood up and said, “Sir Jiro, don’t worry, our family will complete the mission even if we have to sacrifice everyone in the family!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a member of the Chiba family stumbled into the room in his wooden clogs. He fell to the ground with a plop and stammered, “C-Clan Master, Ms. Chiba brought people to f-fight back!”
“What?
“How dare she do that?!”
“…”
All the members of the Chiba family stood up angrily. Throughout the hundred years since their family existed in Japan, it was the first time someone dared to stir troubles at their door.
The person was looking down on them to be doing that!
“Haha!”
Hidemoto Jiro drank a glass of wine calmly and said not sure if he was smiling, “It’s obvious that the Chinese powerhouse is here!”
“That’s great!”
Chiba Izumi felt like it had been decades since he got worked up like this. Today, he could not help but be enraged, “I thought I’d look for him, and now he has come to me on his own accord!”
He shouted, “Where are the Four Ghosts of Japan?!”
The space around him distorted at the next moment! Four black figures suddenly appeared behind him like specters. Each of them were dressed in black from head to toe.
As they appeared, the room fell silent.
Even the smile on Hidemoto Jiro’s face turned grim. He could not help but ask, “So this is the real trump card of your Chiba family, the Four Ghosts of Japan?”
Rumor had it that there was an outstanding man among the Chiba family’s ancestors. In order to pursue the legendary Art of Longevity, the man created the corpse-liberation.
The so-called corpse-liberation was to separate the soul from the corpse, a temple would then be built to worship the soul, allowing the soul to live an eternity as it was worshipped with incense.
This method was extremely cruel and painful. Firstly, it was the pain of the soul being separated. After the soul was separated, it had to voluntarily destroy its consciousness. The stronger the person’s will was when they were alive, the more powerful their soul would be after their soul was being separated from their corpse. Of course, the failure rate would also be higher.
At the time, that ancestor of the Chiba family had experimented on hundreds of people, but only four succeeded. These four were called the Four Ghosts of Japan!
