Chapter 88: Treated Like a Guest of Honor
Although the alliance was not agreed upon on the spot, the four ninjas were still very satisfied with the outcome of today's meeting.
Because the Yingui Sect's leader, the Holy Queen Zhu Yuyan, and the guest elder Ni Kun both promised to go to Liaodong in person to meet with the Emperor.
The ninjas believed that as long as Zhu Yuyan and the others met the emperor, they would be impressed by his courage and martial arts and would sincerely make an alliance.
By then the Emperor would march into the Central Plains and join forces with the Yingui Faction to conquer the world and become the common ruler of the Central Plains. Their respective ninjas would also be able to use this great achievement to get rid of their lowly ninja identities and join the samurai class.
Even if he could make great contributions in the war to conquer the Central Plains, he might even become a daimyo with a family name and fiefdom.
Shan Wanjing felt very complicated about this result.
On the one hand, she really wanted to disrupt this alliance and make Japan's plan fail.
On the other hand, her mother Shan Meixian was still controlled by the emperor, and she hoped that Zhu Yuyan would save her mother from suffering for the sake of their blood ties.
Therefore, Shan Wanjing felt both anticipation and resistance towards Zhu Yuyan's decision to go to Liaodong in person. The conflict was so tangled that it was difficult to describe.
The sad thing is that neither Ni Kun, Zhu Yuyan, nor the four ninjas would take Shan Wanjing's feelings into consideration.
In a sense, Shan Wanjing, the so-called chief envoy of the secret mission, is just a tool.
After completing the task of contacting the Yingui Sect, Shan Wanjing's role ended there.
All subsequent developments were beyond her control.
The next morning, Ni Kun, Zhu Yuyan and Kan Kan boarded the same large ship that Shan Wanjing and her party had taken at Jiangdu Wharf.
There will be a fierce battle on this trip, and the strength of the Japanese side has not yet fully surfaced .
Ni Kun also didn't know that besides these ninjas who possessed secret techniques, there were other strange and powerful characters on the Japanese side, so he left Wen Caiting and Bai Qing'er in Jiangdu.
The two of them are not fighters and their strength is a bit weak. If they go, they will only hinder the team and may even die in the chaos.
Ni Kun has always been kind and gentle to women and would never let them fall into danger.
In this way, Ni Kun's group consisted of only three people.
In the eyes of Yashamaru and the other four ninjas, this was undoubtedly a show of sincerity. They showed the Japanese way of saving face and made great efforts to entertain these three distinguished guests, giving them the best cabin and the best food.
At night, Hu Yi even came and knocked on Ni Kun's door, saying that he wanted to warm his bed.
Such hospitality made Ni Kun feel a little embarrassed, and he thought that if the ninjas were well-behaved, he would leave them a chance to live.
Anyway, ninjas are just the lowest kind of tools, so why not work for anyone?
After the Emperor is overthrown, he can just be Ni Kun's tool!
"Sir, that Japanese girl Hu Yi has a pretty face, a pair of big watery eyes, and looks quite innocent. But her body is so plump, so full that it seems like you can squeeze out water...
"Even though the skin color is a little darker, it is still tender and tight, with a unique charm. The thighs are also a little thicker, but they feel particularly strong...
"She wants to warm your bed, why would you turn her away? If it were me, I would definitely not be able to refuse her anyway."
In the cabin, Kanan sat opposite Ni Kun, rubbing Ni Kun's feet with her feet and asked with a smile.
Well, I don’t know if this witch is really confused or doing it on purpose.
In short, until now, she only used her exquisite and beautiful feet to rub his feet, and she seemed to be completely unaware that her soft and flexible feet could do many other things.
While enjoying the foot massage from Kankan, Ni Kun studied the Book of Changes.
Hearing this, he glanced at her and said calmly:
"Where did you learn those nonsense? You are just a little girl, what do you know?"
Xianxian stuck out her tongue:
"I don't know much, but aren't you an expert? Can't you see the beauty of Hu Yi's Japanese girl?"
Ni Kun touched his chin, thinking:
"What you said does make some sense. So, when you go out later, help me call that Japanese girl Hu Yi over."
"ah?"
Xianxian was stunned for a moment and laughed dryly:
"Well, she's already left. She might have gone back to bed by now. Would n't ?
"This, going back on one's word, undermines the dignity of the young master..."
Ni Kun looked at her with a half-smile:
"Is it possible that your long speech just now was just a rant because I rejected her?
"That's fine. If you don't ask Hu Yi to come, you will serve me tonight."
"Ah?" Qianqian was even more dumbfounded and said with a chuckle:
"But, but I..."
Ni Kun raised his eyebrows: "Why, you don't want to?"
"No, no...it's just, it's just my practice..."
Ni Kun smiled and pointed at her:
"Look at you. You usually say you are invincible and flirt with me from time to time. But once I get serious, you immediately become as trembling as a quail. You dare to flirt with me in this state? Go to bed as soon as possible!"
Xianxian pouted, looking unconvinced:
"It's not that I don't dare to do it seriously, I just remember my master's instructions that I must not lose my vital energy before cultivating the eighteenth level of the Heavenly Demon Secret!
“When my cultivation is complete, you…Anyway, I won’t be afraid of you!
"Humph, I'm angry, you wash your feet next!"
After saying that, she quickly lifted her feet, used her internal energy to shake off the water foam on her feet, let down the hem of her skirt to cover her calves, and ran out in a flash.
"Remember to call Hu Yi for me!"
Ni Kun shouted behind her.
"You are just dreaming. In your dream, the Japanese woman will come!"
Kanan left without looking back while pouting coquettishly.
Ni Kun smiled and shook his head, then he took his feet out of the copper basin, activated his flame blood to evaporate the water stains, poured out the water while slipping on his shoes, fastened the cabin door, returned to the couch, took out the flying sword, and began to sacrifice the sword.
On the way to Jiangdu, Ni Kun offered sacrifices to his sword every two days. Even when he stayed at Dongfang Bai's place, he offered sacrifices to his flying sword.
By today, the fire level of the flying sword sacrifice had reached a considerable level.
After the routine sacrifices, Ni Kun had an idea, stretched out his finger and pointed, and the flying sword turned into a clear yellow sword light, shot out like lightning, turned around a porcelain cup on the opposite table, and then flew back to Ni Kun, circling around him.
It was not until this moment that the upper half of the porcelain cup slid down diagonally, but it was already silently cut off by the sword light, and the cut was as smooth as a mirror without a trace of burrs.
"good."
Ni Kun nodded secretly, estimated the speed and power of the sword light, as well as the consumption of his own blood, energy and spirit, and said to himself:
"Within ten steps, an average Grandmaster-level warrior would be killed in one blow if he didn't have a powerful means of self-defense."
The flying sword is a weapon for killing. The difference between a cultivator who can cast a flying sword and a cultivator without a flying sword is not too big.
Although Mao Tai was stronger than Zhu Yuyan in terms of martial arts, it would take at least a thousand moves for him to defeat Zhu Yuyan.
Moreover, Zhu Yuyan was able to survive even after being defeated and could completely escape.
But when Mao Tai's flying sword came out, Zhu Yuyan had no power to fight back, and she and Ni Kun were killed instantly.
In fact, Ni Kun didn't know that in The Swordsman of Shu Mountain, Mao Tai had an enemy named Zhou Chun, who once cut off two of Mao Tai's fingers.
When the two met for the second time, Zhou Chun's martial arts skills were still superior to Mao Tai's, and he used a variety of methods to injure Mao Tai.
But once Mao Tai released his flying sword, Zhou Chun could only close his eyes and wait for death, without any chance of resistance.
This is sufficient to prove the advantage of flying swords.
"I can probably fire four or five sword beams of this power in a row before my energy and blood are depleted and my spirit is exhausted...
"If you slow down the pace of your sword strikes, and rest after each strike, then you can strike ten times a day without any problem, and it won't cause much damage to your blood and spirit...
"Not bad, not bad. Today, we finally have a way to kill powerful enemies without relying on ultimate moves!"
When Ni Kun uses the sword, he consumes his energy, blood, and spirit.
This kind of consumption causes greater damage to the body than the consumption of true qi.
Fortunately, Ni Kun specialized in body training and practiced the proper human-immortal martial arts. He also used the essence of the tree demon to greatly strengthen his internal organs. His qi, blood and spirit were pure and strong enough. Otherwise, he really could not afford to use this flying sword.
"The initial ritual of the flying sword has almost been successful. Next, it is time to proceed to the next stage of ritual cultivation."
