The island country was once the most supreme place, with the imperial power that controlled everything!
But later... the imperial power weakened, the emperor's influence declined, and it was difficult 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 alliance in China.
Even more influential than the leader of the martial arts alliance!
The Imperial Palace occupies a large area, and there is an empty area among the gardens.
In the middle, there stands a building, a typical island-style building, which looks antique and has a sense of age.
In fact, this building has been around for some years!
In the building, an old man was kneeling on a futon, not moving at all.
The old man looks a little thin, and he doesn't look much different from an ordinary old man... But if there are experts here, they will be shocked. Not only does he not move at all, he doesn't even breathe!
It's as if... he is not a living person, but a dead thing!
If you hadn't seen it with your eyes, you wouldn't have noticed... there was such an old man, kneeling on a futon!
The room is very quiet...
Not far away from the old man, in an aromatherapy stove, smoke was puffing out... giving it a bit of a Zen feel.
I don't know how long it took, but the old man suddenly opened his eyes.
At his age, his eyes should have been cloudy...but there was a glimmer of light in his eyes!
"Come in!"
The old man spoke slowly, his voice very calm.
Following his words, a man covered in black robes came in from outside. No one could tell whether he was male, female, old or young.
He came five meters away from the old man, knelt on one knee on the ground, 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 next to him, took a sip, and asked slowly.
"Ghost Buddha Zhao Tulai is in Mingji County. It seems that he is coming to Tokyo..."
The man in black robe replied.
"Apart from the ghost Buddha Zhao Tathagata?"
The old man asked again.
"Sword God Xue Chunqiu... went to Zangmen Mountain and temporarily lost his trace! There is also Thunder God. He has never shown up since he was injured and left last time. However, in Jiju, there was a master who fought, suspected of Thunder God..."
The man in black robe kept reporting, if Xiao Chen were here, he would be surprised that all the masters from China were targeted!
"Keep staring, there is no need to alarm them... Pay special attention to Ghost Buddha Zhao Tulai, and remember to tell me when he arrives in Tokyo."
The old man said slowly.
"Hi."
The man in black robe nodded and hesitated.
"Your Majesty, do you need to pay attention personally? Baipao and I should be able to kill him."
"You may not be his match."
The old man shook his head.
"There are countless Chinese warriors who have come to the island country...the one that I cannot understand the most is the ghost Buddha Zhao Tulai! He may be able to fight with me!"
Hearing the old man's words, the man in black robe was shocked. Can he fight with the Emperor?
You know, the Emperor has already encountered a bottleneck after entering the half-step innate realm for many years... Maybe he only needs an opportunity to step into a new realm, that is, the innate realm!
"So, don't be careless, keep an eye on him and tell me when the time comes."
The old man...that is, the emperor of the island country, said in a deep voice.
"In addition to him, the Sword God Xue Chunqiu... also needs to be found!"
"Hi!"
The man in black robe nodded.
"Is there any news coming from various places?"
What did the emperor think of and asked slowly.
"The battle between the martial arts geniuses at Morishan Road has ended. There were some surprises..."
Black Robe Report.
"Oh? What accident?"
The emperor looked at the man in black robe and seemed to be interested.
The man in black robe reported the news he got to the emperor.
After listening to the report of the man in black robe, the emperor narrowed his eyes. The best in the world?
He has never heard of this genre!
Is it really a hermit school?
Why is it that Nakamura Kojiro, who is said to be the best in the world, was founded by Moriyama’s friend?
"Moriyama...should be about to transform, right?"
The old man squinted his eyes, thoughts flashing through his mind.
"You said that Tian Huan Tuoyi is only in his twenties?"
"Yes."
"What does it look like?"
"The details are not clear yet."
"Send someone to ask if there are any images or anything... The island country is in chaos, and the best in the world suddenly appears. How can it be such a coincidence."
At the end of the sentence, the old man turned into talking to himself.
"Hi!"
"Check out the whereabouts of the best in the world, and also send people to keep an eye on it... Also, go and find out the best in the world!"
"Hi!"
"Have you contacted the major ninja sects?"
"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.
"Many transformations...both inside and outside, will be in chaos."
The emperor said to himself.
"The Chinese warriors have come, and they 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 the others... Maybe their cultivation techniques are my opportunity to make them I have entered the innate realm!"
Thinking of Chinese warriors, a face suddenly appeared in the Emperor's mind, and he couldn't help but frown.
Although, in recent years, there has been little news about this person and he is no longer active.
But he knows...this person...must still be alive. Even if he dies, this person may not die!
"When I step into the innate realm, I should... be able to fight you, right?"
The emperor slowly clenched his fist, and his whole aura... suddenly changed drastically!
At this time, he is no longer an ordinary old man, but... a decisive and killing emperor!
…
Xiao Chen did not expect that the performance of his martial arts prodigy in the battle would have reached the ears of the emperor.
Likewise...he would never have thought that all China's masters were under the supervision of the Emperor!
At this time, he had left the scope of Gaoqi County and came to another county, where he found the shrine that Kojiro Nakamura mentioned!
"You guys wait for me outside...Hao Jian, you accompany me in. We keep a low profile and get out of the way when we're done."
Xiao Chen looked at the shrine in the distance and said to everyone.
"good."
Everyone nodded.
Originally, Qin Jianwen wanted to follow him in to see how Xiao Chen used the 'god' as nourishment, but after thinking of something, he gave up the idea.
As long as he doesn't leave, he will definitely have a chance to see it.
But now... being low-key is the most important thing.
If so many of them enter, they will definitely attract attention... Although they may not necessarily suspect anything, it is not good to attract attention after all.
A few minutes later, Xiao Chen and Hao Jian entered the shrine.
There are many people in the shrine.
Xiao Chen and Hao Jian strolled to the temple without attracting anyone's attention.
"Someone is here... How about coming back at night?"
Hao Jian whispered.
"Observe the situation first. If it doesn't work now, then you have to find a good idea..."
Xiao Chen also whispered, communicating with Hao Jian.
"Um."
Hao Jian nodded and said nothing more.
The statue enshrined in this shrine is half human and half demon... at least, that's how it seems to Xiao Chen and Hao Jian.
Human head, human body, snake tail, no legs!
"I heard that there is a Yamata-no-Orochi in the island country. Isn't this guy a Yamata-no-Orochi?"
Hao Jian looked at it for a few times and asked Xiao Chen.
"no."
Xiao Chen shook his head and scanned the surroundings. There were not many opportunities during the day, so it seemed like 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 of the god!
I wonder if there are any agencies around?
Like Moriyama Shrine, are there tunnels?
Xiao Chen turned around but couldn't find the mechanism. He couldn't help but frown, right?
Then... where is the statue with the spiritual imprint attached to it?
Could it be that it's like Beihai Shrine? In a closed area?
Thinking of this, Xiao Chen left the shrine with Hao Jian and continued to wander around the shrine.
Sure enough, the shrine has an area that is not open to the public!
This made Xiao Chen confident that it should be like Beihai Shrine!
"Let's go first, it seems we have to stay here for one night today."
Xiao Chen said to Hao Jian.
"Um."
Hao Jian nodded and left the shrine with Xiao Chen.
"How about it?"
Xiaodao asked after they returned to the car.
"There is no chance during the day. Let's wait until night... to explore again."
Xiao Chen lit a cigarette.
"Heiyi, drive and find a place to stay."
"good."
Heiichi agreed, started the car, and drove away from the shrine.
Half an hour later, they checked into a villa. Although there was not enough room for each person, it was still spacious.
"Let's take a rest first and then go out to eat."
Xiao Chen sat on the sofa and said to everyone.
"Um."
Everyone nodded and sat down individually, chatting.
"Brother Chen, after this is over, where will you go next?"
Heiyi took out a map and placed it on the coffee table.
"Qinggu Valley, there is an Onmyoji there... I want to see it."
Xiao Chen said to Hei Yi.
"Onmyoji... is mysterious and unpredictable. Are we going to face each other now?"
Qin Jianwen frowned slightly and asked.
"No matter how mysterious it is, it still depends on its strength... We just went to have a look, it's 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.
"Is there no news yet from the Red Army?"
Xiao Chen asked.
"It should be soon."
As soon as Qin Jianwen finished speaking, his cell phone rang.
"Hello? Yes, I am... Okay, tell me the price."
Hearing Qin Jianwen's words, Xiao Chen's eyes lit up. Did the Red Army agree?
As long as you agree, everything else is easy.
To put it bluntly, he is not short of money at all now!
So, just let the Red Army set the price...as long as the matter is done, it won't be short of their money!
"Fifty million dollars."
Qin Jianwen looked at Xiao Chen and whispered.
"So low? Promise!"
Xiao Chen was a little surprised. Guys like the Red Army... didn't have much appetite.
"Okay, we agreed... we will tell you the specific tasks after we discuss them!"
