Chapter 448: Three at the Peak
Chapter 448: Chapter 448: Three at the Peak
Hearing these stirring words, Yagyū Taikō did not delay and respectfully led Xia Liu to the car to set off immediately.
“Hmph, I hope you still have a life to return to!” Watching Xia Liu leave first, Yagyū Yuanming murmured softly to himself.
In front, Yagyū Taikō and clan members drove in a Crown sedan, while Xia Liu followed in a Rolls-Royce.
Ye Zi sat in the front passenger seat, with Ruyan sitting behind her.
During the drive, Ye Zi suddenly asked, “Respected master, do you require any services from Ye Zi?”
Hmm?
...
Xia Liu glanced at Ye Zi, who was currently looking at him with tender affection, her eyes brimming with a pleading desire that seemed wholly genuine.
“Ye Zi, I feel like you’re troubled by something. Speak up, and I’ll decide for you.”
“Respected master, I am very happy and don’t have anything particular on my mind.”
“Just say it. If you think it’s not good for the clan to be taken in, then go fight Ruyan,” Xia Liu said helplessly.
“No no, I think this is very good…” Ye Zi hastily replied.
“Master, you may not know, but if a female ninja with Pupil Skill loses her virginity, once she returns to the clan, she’ll become an outlet for other ninjas. No matter her previous status, once she loses her Pupil Skill ability, she will be despised and left with no standing whatsoever,” Ruyan, sitting behind, began to explain.
“So the Pupil Skill becomes useless after losing virginity…” Suddenly, Xia Liu felt somewhat guilty, but upon remembering that this girl was out to kill him, he felt relieved.
“It’s okay now. The Yamamoto Family is finished. Ruyan will be able to protect me in the future.” Ye Zi gave a charming smile. When she got off the plane, she had thought that if Xia Liu were to die, she would take her own life as well.
After all, becoming an outlet for the clan’s ninjas would be the most tragic fate.
When Xia Liu said he wanted to take her as a maid, for some reason, she felt a strong surge of joy.
Ye Zi and Ruyan had discussed it, and it turned out Ruyan had the same thought.
Perhaps this is human nature; since ancient times, heroes have loved beauties, and why wouldn’t beauties like heroes?
In any case, at present, the two women harbored no ill thoughts towards Xia Liu. Perhaps because of his influence, their status in the future clan would be quite high.
“Respected master, if there’s nothing you need, Ye Zi is going to sleep,” Ye Zi said to Xia Liu, blinking her large, adorable eyes.
“Yes, there is! Of course, there is,” Xia Liu looked beneath the steering wheel and then said with a smile.
Ye Zi understood Xia Liu’s meaning, licked the corner of her mouth, and then slowly bent forward…
After driving for about two hours, the convoy finally arrived at the headquarters of the Yamamoto Family.
The estate was similar in scale to that of the Yagyū Family, and their locations were even side by side in the city’s districts.
Xia Liu got out of the car, stretched lazily, looking refreshed and spirited.
Ye Zi and Ruyan quickly came to his side, with a noticeable blush on Ye Zi’s face, as if she had just eaten some high-calorie food in the car.
“Respected Mr. Xia, we’ve arrived,” Yagyū Taikō came over anxiously to report.
“Good, let’s go in,” Xia Liu waved and led everyone through the gate.
In fact, the Yagyū Family’s ninjas had already come over last night, and the Earth-Rank ninjas from Young Master Liao were the only ones following Xia Liu.
“What do you think of Yagyū Yuanming?” Xia Liu quietly asked Ruyan as they walked.
“He is the most dazzling new star in the family, a candidate for the next Family Head.”
“Hmm, looks like he’s got big ambitions. You wouldn’t be upset if he died, would you?” Glancing at Yagyū Yuanming who was dawdling in the car behind them, Xia Liu whispered into Ruyan’s ear.
“As long as the master is happy.” Although she didn’t understand why Xia Liu was asking her this, Ruyan could only smile and nod in agreement. Among ninjas, there isn’t much affection to speak of, even between family members or teachers.
Xia Liu asked no further and followed Yagyū Taikō through the main entrance.
Inside the estate, a middle-aged man from the Yamamoto Family greeted them.
Following the man, the group arrived at a huge training ground.
However, what was strange was that there was no one on the training ground.
Xia Liu carefully sensed and realized that some ninjas were using the Invisibility Technique to watch from the sidelines of the training ground, with many more standing silently in the distance.
It appeared as though they had deliberately made space, wanting to watch the ninjas battle it out in the arena.
“Yamamoto Taro! What is the meaning of this?” Yagyū Taikō, who had obviously sensed those hidden ninjas, couldn’t help but question.
“Tsk, tsk! The cowardly Yagyū Family is willing to become slaves to the Huaxia pigs, but we of the Yamamoto Clan will not!” Yamamoto Taro’s face suddenly contorted with emotion.
“You’re seeking death!” Yagyū Taikō’s brow furrowed. He had clearly told Yamamoto Taro everything last night.
Yet he was still so obtuse. Was he trying to risk the lives of the entire Yamamoto Family?
“Family Head Yagyū, you’ve grown too old, maybe your brain is rusting.” Suddenly, a mocking voice came from behind Xia Liu.
Everyone turned around to see that it was Yagyū Yuanming.
At this moment, Yagyū Yuanming was not alone; by his side were three old men with white hair and weathered faces.
“Yamamoto Koumura! Yamamoto Nakata! And from the Kawasaki Family, Kawasaki Kaede!” Recognizing the three men, Yagyū Taikō immediately burst out in surprise.
Because those were three Earth Rank Peak ninjas!
If the Yagyū Family did not possess certain powers at some level, Yagyū Taikō would not be able to sit on an equal footing with these people.
“Yagyū Taikō, it seems you’re becoming more cowardly the longer you live,” Kawasaki Kaede said coldly after glancing at Yagyū Taikō.
“Kawasaki Kaede, I hope you don’t meddle in this affair, or your Kawasaki Family won’t be spared,” Yagyū Taikō said unapologetically.
“Family Head Yagyū! Is this the man who killed the head of our Yamamoto Clan?” Yamamoto Koumura looked down and asked coldly as he eyed Xia Liu.
“Koumura, I hope you won’t be stubborn. I told you everything last night.”
“Enough, you coward!” Without giving Yagyū Taikō a chance to explain, Yamamoto Koumura swiftly formed a hand seal, and immediately summoned Godslayer.
“Family Head, you are old. Why do you still insist on taking the Family Head’s position? It’s time to pass it to me,” Yagyū Yuanming said with a face full of scornful laughter.
His longing for the position of Family Head had been so great that he had nearly thought about killing Yagyū Taikō.
“Mr. Yuanming, I can assure you that this is the biggest mistake you’ve made in your life, and you won’t have the chance to regret it,” Yagyū Taikō said, shaking his head in resignation, already foreseeing the end for these people.
“Family Head, these are three Earth-Rank Peak ninjas. Together, they can surely kill that Huaxia pig, and of course, you will have to die too!” Yagyū Yuanming’s eyes became crazed, willing to give up everything to take the position of Family Head.
“Hmph, it’s just a Huaxia pig; no need for three people to act together,” Kawasaki Kaede said disdainfully.
