Tprm 1089

 A shuriken struck with precision at the dagger held in Kawauchi Ryugu's hand.


                The tremendous force directly deflected his attack, he was aiming at Chen Ge's chest but now he missed his position and stumbled, almost falling down next to Chen Ge.


                "Who!"


                Kawauchi Ryugu kept stepping forward for three or four steps before he could steady himself, and he turned his head. Annoyed, he looked to the side where a hand sword had just landed, the very thing that had struck his dagger and made him miss his best chance to kill Chen Ge.


                "A bit much to strike in our Yamashita clan's sphere of influence, isn't it?" Just as Kawauchi Ryugu's words fell, a hoarse voice rang out abruptly.


                Immediately afterwards, a hunchbacked old man appeared in the sight of the crowd, as if he had appeared out of nowhere, before he appeared. No one had even noticed that there would be someone there.


                "This should be someone from the Yamashita family, looking like this, at the very least, he's at the elder level." Fei Shuo explained softly as she stuck to Chen Ge's side, she didn't know much about the Yamashita clan either, but she could guess from this man's dressing and voice alone.


                "Hmm." Chen Ge nodded his head.


                Chen Ge was also a little wary of this old man who had suddenly appeared. With the power of the Nine-Turned Yuan Shen in his own body, he would have warned in advance when a cultivator or a very high strength or a danger appeared around him.


                But just now it was only at the moment the hand sword was cast that the Nine Turning Yuan Shen alerted itself.


                But it was obvious that this old man had been in that position for a long time.


                This was the reason for Chen Ge's vigilance, from all this it was clear that this old man must not be weak, otherwise it would not have been possible to give himself the oppressive force that made him feel in danger.


                "A ninja, this is the first time I've encountered one!" Chen Ge shook his head and smiled, muttering lightly to himself.


                On the other side, seeing someone from the Yamashita clan come out, Kawauchi Ryugu instantly calmed down.


                He himself knew his situation. He had already violated the rules of the other clan by trespassing here, and if he clashed with them again, he would really be in trouble.


                "I am Kawauchi Ryugu, the leader of the Kawauchi family's assassin group, I wonder if senior is?" Kawauchi Ryugu immediately put away his dagger and turned to ignore Chen Ge on the side, asking the hunchbacked old man with an arch of his hand.


                "I've heard of you." The old man did not introduce himself.


                "It was me and him who had some grudges to settle today, I didn't expect to wander in here by mistake, old man we definitely didn't mean to come looking for trouble and definitely won't cause you any, I'll settle him and leave immediately!"


                Kawauchi Ryugu continued to look at Chen Ge.


                "Since you have arrived at our Yamashita clan, you should rightly be considered our guests, I invite you two to have a seat inside, let's talk about your grudge in a calm manner and then settle it. How about that?" The old man interrupted with a wave of his hand.


                "This ......" Ryugu Kawauchi froze for a moment, obviously not expecting to hear such words.


                But he also hesitated for just a moment before he immediately spoke up and agreed." No problem, I've wanted to visit your family for a long time, so now is the perfect time to take advantage of this opportunity. Take a visit!"


                Kawauchi Ryugu was not afraid of the Yamashita clan, although this clan had ninjas, the most mysterious profession in the whole of Japan, but their Kawauchi clan was not bad either, there were countless assassins within the clan.


                Thinking of this, Kawauchi Ryugu once again looked at Chen Ge.


                The disappearance of Endo and Izumo was like a poisonous thorn stuck in his throat, making it hard for him to even breathe, and only by killing Chen Ge. The only way to make him feel better was to kill Chen Ge and get the two captains out.


                And the reason he agreed was that Saburo had failed in his assassination of Feishu and had just been on the road. Tian Fang had suspected why Chen Ge and Feishuo had arrived here, and also that the person who had struck that day might be a ninja from the Yamashita clan.


                If that was indeed the case, it would just confirm why he had sent so many of his men, but had been unable to pry out the mysterious man's whereabouts from within the Japanese territory.


                Now that the old man had taken the initiative to invite him, he was naturally happy to agree, just to take this opportunity to pry. He didn't believe that the Yamashita family would dare to use this opportunity to make a move against him, after all, he was the head of the assassination team, and he was known throughout Japan. It all rang true.


                "What about you, little brother?" Seeing that Kawauchi Ryugu agreed to do so, the old man looked at Chen Ge with a smile again.


                "Of course I agree, I have always heard before that your Yamashita clan has ninjas, so I just take this opportunity to meet them." Chen Ge did not hesitate and immediately agreed. At the same time, he said with a smile.


                "Haha, ninjas are just rumours outside, our Yamashita clan is just a small clan on the verge of ruin. How could there be ninjas?" Chen Ge's words made the old man freeze for a moment, and then he laughed out loud with a hoarse voice.


                But as his words fell, he suddenly stretched out his dry arm and with a movement of two fingers, the shuriken that had fallen to the ground flew backwards into his hand as if it had been pulled by a thin thread.


                Putting the sword into his pocket, the old man turned around, put his hands behind his back and walked towards the barren mountain, seemingly with a concealed gait, but in fact with great speed.


                Seeing this, Kawauchi Ryugu gave Chen Ge a vicious look and lifted his feet to follow.


                "Team leader. What about us?" Tian Fang asked as he stepped forward.


                "You two wait here, plus see if any of these brothers can be saved." Ryugu Kawauchi said through gritted teeth as he looked at the clansmen who had been killed by Chen Ge.


                On the other side. Chen Ge and Feishu followed close behind.


                The place where the Yamashita clan was located was the foot of the barren mountain, which had a rather primitive village, but also a number of modern villas and manor houses.


                "Please come in, you two." The old man walked to the front of a small manor house. Opening the wooden door, he said.


                Looking inside, there was no difference between the inside and an ancient Chinese village house, a wooden paved path with water ponds and greenery on both sides, and at the end of the courtyard, a row of bungalows, which were at least a few decades old if you just looked at them with the naked eye.


                "Into the stock I guessed correctly, you must be the young lady of the Futaba family, right?" The old man asked hoarsely as he touched his dried hand when Fei Xiu walked past him.


                "That's right, I'm Feihuo Erye." Feishuo nodded, not hiding anything.


                "I think back when I met your father, you were still a little girl of this size." The old man reached out and compared his hand, then said with a smile, "I didn't expect that after so many years, you had grown so tall."


                "Old man has met my father?" Futaba Fei-Shu was a little surprised, she had never heard her father say anything about having contact with anyone from the Yamashita family when she was growing up.


                "Of course, but that was all a long time ago." The old man smiled and nodded, a look of reminiscence running through his cloudy eyes.
