On the southern side of Liuan City, there lies Mount Liuan, within which is a Liuan Spring.
Liuan Spring is located deep in the ancient woods, a natural reserve where people seldom venture. Even more, the deep forest is home to dangerous animals like wolves and wild boars.
At this moment, by the side of Liuan Spring, several masked men were sitting cross-legged in meditation.
One of them, clearly pale, had suffered severe internal injuries. This man was none other than the Sect Master who had escaped with his life from Beiwang Manor.
Not far from him sat the man who had rescued him from Beiwang Manor and who could confront Su Yang head-on.
As the group sat in silence, suddenly, the man who had fought with Su Yang abruptly opened his eyes. With a slight movement of his body, he disappeared from his spot and reappeared not far away, hurling three darts at a large boulder nearby.
Three tiny darts struck the boulder, shattering it as though a bomb had hit it, demonstrating the man’s formidable strength.
As the boulder shattered, two figures flew out from behind it. Without any delay, the man quickly pursued them, drawing his katana in a fluid motion.
"Hundred Ghosts Slash!" With a low shout, the katana swiftly cleaved through the air, forming dozens of blade shadows that blocked all escape routes for the two men, several meters away.
The man’s figure, ghost-like and elusive, made it impossible to pinpoint his exact position or defend against his attacks.
Just then, the taller of the two men shouted lowly, his body suddenly radiating a bright golden light. The dozens of blade shadows struck the golden light, shattering it, but also rapidly vanishing afterwards.
The tall man swiftly dashed to the left, throwing a punch into thin air.
However, as his fist made impact, a figure appeared right there — it was the Japanese man.
A gleam flared in the eyes of the Japanese man as he swept his katana across, colliding with the fist. Both men recoiled several steps from the impact.
Without hesitation, the Japanese man leapt forward, ready to strike again with his katana. At that moment, the tall man spoke up, "Don’t be rash, we are not enemies!"
The Japanese man paused but remained wary as he observed the tall man. Given the latter’s formidable strength, caution was necessary in case of ill intentions.
The tall man chuckled and said, "My friends, we are not enemies, in fact, we might even call each other friends. We have come here to discuss a matter with you!"
Seeing no change in expression among the group, the tall man laughed lightly and added, "A matter concerning dealing with Master Su of Pingnan Province!"
The Japanese man did not respond but instead looked toward the Sect Master.
The Sect Master stood up, speaking softly, "Onitsuka, come back!"
The Japanese man then retreated to stand behind the Sect Master, who slowly approached the tall man, examining him before speaking gravely, "Master Su of Pingnan Province is Huaxia Country’s most celebrated expert recently. You Huaxia people want to deal with him too? How can I believe you?" Orıginal content can be found at novelꞁire.net
"You don’t have to believe me, but there is one person you will definitely trust!" the tall man stepped back to let another man forward and laughed, "Look who it is!"
The Japanese men looked at the man, their brows furrowing. The Sect Master’s brow furrowed briefly before he suddenly said in a deep voice, "Liao Yuxuan!?"
This man was Liao Yuxuan, who had escaped with Gongye Liang.
With a slight smile, Liao Yuxuan said, "Sect Master, we meet again!"
However, the Sect Master’s expression was cold: "In Nanluo City, we provided you with substantial support, yet you returned in utter defeat. You haven’t done one thing for us, and yet you have the face to meet me?"
"Sect Master, it wasn’t that I didn’t help you in Nanluo City, but Su Yang’s strength was too formidable. What could I have done?" Liao Yuxuan said, "Let’s not talk about me. Even you, Sect Master, have suffered a great loss at the hands of Su Yang. If it weren’t for Mr. Onitsuka’s personal intervention, you might have died in Beiwang Manor, right?"
The Sect Master’s expression turned colder, his voice angry, "Liao Yuxuan, dare you insult me?"
"Sect Master, I meant no disrespect!" Liao Yuxuan laughed, "I am here mainly to assure you of our sincerity in wanting to collaborate with you to kill Su Yang. Sect Master, seeing me, do you still doubt our intentions?"
The Sect Master fell silent for a moment. The enmity between Liao Yuxuan and Su Yang was deep, necessitating revenge. His personal presence confirmed the matter beyond doubt.
"Su Yang has the support of Ye Jiansheng and Lian Wanxiong. Killing him won’t be easy!" the Sect Master said somberly.
"You misunderstand, Sect Master," Liao Yuxuan smiled, "Ye Jiansheng and Lian Wanxiong only help him deal with Earth Immortals. In fact, Earth Immortals have their limitations, as you know. If we don’t involve Earth Immortals, Ye Jiansheng and Lian Wanxiong won’t interfere even if we kill him!"
"Su Yang’s strength is not weak, killing him won’t be easy either," the Sect Master frowned.
"With Mr. Onitsuka here, plus several other experts on our side, killing Su Yang isn’t a tough task!" Liao Yuxuan chuckled.
The Sect Master looked at the tall man beside Liao Yuxuan and then at Onitsuka.
Onitsuka nodded slightly, acknowledging the tall man’s strength.
"The two of them working together might indeed kill Su Yang," the Sect Master nodded.
"Not just the two of them..." Liao Yuxuan grinned, "We also have Mr. Jin Ye here, as well as another expert who is almost as strong as Mr. Jin Ye. That is, Mr. Onitsuka will be working with these two to kill Su Yang!"
The Sect Master’s eyes lit up, "So, Su Yang won’t even have a chance to escape!"
"If we are to kill him, of course, we must be fully prepared!" Liao Yuxuan laughed, "Actually, our own strength is enough to deal with him. But to kill him, we can’t be careless, so we came to you for cooperation. After all, you must also be very eager to kill Su Yang, right?"
The Sect Master slowly nodded as he looked at Liao Yuxuan and said coldly, "However, let me make this clear. Once Su Yang is dead, the Celestial War Armor is ours!"
"Ha ha ha..." Liao Yuxuan laughed aloud, "Sect Master, you really know how to do business. We contribute two experts, and you only provide Mr. Onitsuka, yet you get to take the Celestial War Armor? It seems we’re making an effort on your behalf, aren’t we?"
