Boom.
Kawasaki Shirou crashed into the wooden house, collapsing it entirely.
Upon landing, he spat out a mouthful of blood, clutching his chest. He tried to stand but couldn't manage it.
Qin Yi walked over, looking down at him from above.
"You, you..."
Kawasaki Shirou pointed at him, his face filled with horror. He wanted to say something, but before he could, he spat out another large mouthful of blood.
Qin Yi, however, had no intention of wasting more words on him. He brought a palm down on the man's head, directly ending his life.
Yingzi lay in the distance. Seeing that all their men had been defeated and killed by Qin Yi, with even Kawasaki Shirou not spared, he was overcome with unparalleled terror!
The next moment, disregarding his injuries, he pushed himself up with all his might and fled into the distance.
His speed was incredible. Under the cover of night, his figure truly resembled a shadow.
However, he hadn't escaped far before Qin Yi kicked a samurai sword on the ground.
Whoosh.
The samurai sword sliced through the air, striking Yingzi and instantly piercing his body.
Yingzi's movement halted. He turned to glance at Qin Yi before collapsing to the ground, lifeless.
After that, Qin Yi did not linger in the village and turned to leave.
Not long after Qin Yi departed, two black SUVs entered the mountain road, heading towards the village where the samurai were based.
In the lead SUV sat four people: Fang Zheng'ao, Xiao Li, Jiang Xiongjing, and Jiang Hongxin.
The Jiang family had been wiped out. Jiang Xiongjing and Jiang Hongxin had gone to the capital to report to the Order Hall, seeking justice for the Jiang family.
Initially, the Order Hall member Jiang Xiongjing and Jiang Hongxin had contacted was not Fang Zheng'ao, but someone else.
However, upon learning that Jiang Xiongjing and Jiang Hongxin were well acquainted with Qin Yi, Fang Zheng'ao took the matter upon himself!
Tonight, Fang Zheng'ao, Xiao Li, and several other Order Hall members from the following car were heading to the samurai's main base specifically to help Jiang Xiongjing and Jiang Hongxin resolve their feud with the samurai!
Xiao Li was driving, with Fang Zheng'ao in the passenger seat. Glancing out the window at the night scenery, he turned to ask Jiang Xiongjing and Jiang Hongxin, who were in the back seat, "Gentlemen, we're almost at the samurai's main base. Have you decided on your terms?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiongjing and Jiang Hongxin exchanged a look, their faces etched with anger and resentment.
Jiang Hongxin gritted his teeth and said, "We don't need compensation or apologies from the samurai. They were insane, killing all forty-odd members of our Jiang family. We only want their blood for blood!"
Xiao Li listened and couldn't help but say, "Gentlemen, we've discussed this at length before. Why won't you listen?"
"My leader and I understand your feelings, but demanding blood for blood from the samurai is not that simple!"
"Even if our Order Hall can help you destroy the samurai, do you know the price we'll have to pay?"
"The samurai have many experts. According to the information we've gathered, they have several Grandmasters. To destroy them, they'll fight tooth and nail, to the death. We will inevitably suffer heavy casualties!"
"You gentlemen can't just seek your own revenge and disregard the lives of our Order Hall members, can you!"
Jiang Xiongjing and Jiang Hongxin were rendered speechless, unsure of what to say for a moment.
Fang Zheng'ao chimed in, "How about this, gentlemen. Once we get to the samurai, I'll talk to Kawasaki Shirou. As long as they hand over the main culprits responsible for destroying your Jiang family and guarantee they won't cause trouble again, we can let this matter rest, how does that sound?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiongjing and Jiang Hongxin did not respond immediately, their faces still filled with unwillingness.
Fang Zheng'ao sensed this and continued, "Your desire to completely eradicate the samurai is truly unrealistic! I understand you, and I hope you can also understand our difficulties!"
Jiang Hongxin wanted to say something, but before he could speak, Jiang Xiongjing reached out and stopped him.
Then, Jiang Xiongjing himself said, "Alright, we'll listen to you! As long as Kawasaki Shirou is willing to hand over the murderers and guarantee that he won't target Hongxin and me again, we can let it go and cease further pursuit!"
"That's the spirit!" Xiao Li said with satisfaction as he drove, "The Order Hall has dispatched so many people overnight for your Jiang family, which is quite a good gesture!"
After a while, Fang Zheng'ao changed the subject and asked Jiang Xiongjing, "By the way, Brother Jiang, you're quite familiar with Qin Yi, aren't you? What do you think of him?"
Jiang Xiongjing was slightly surprised that the other party would suddenly ask about Qin Yi.
He then replied truthfully, "Actually, our Jiang family only recently got acquainted with Mr. Qin! I find Mr. Qin to be a very righteous, low-key, and exceptionally talented individual in cultivation..."
"Heh heh!"
Hearing this answer, Xiao Li couldn't help but chuckle and interject, "Low-key? If he's low-key, then there are probably no high-profile people in this world!"
Jiang Hongxin frowned and asked, "What do you mean by that?"
Ever since he had experienced Qin Yi's prowess in the Cloud Mist Mountain Range, Jiang Hongxin had been completely convinced.
During the exchange meeting, Qin Yi had defeated Gokenji and Yamamoto Kuroda, avenging the martial arts forces of Nan Province. Later, when the Jiang family was annihilated and he and Jiang Xiongjing were pursued by Moriiki and his companions, it was Qin Yi who had saved their lives at the critical moment!
Therefore, in Jiang Hongxin's heart, he not only greatly admired Qin Yi but also felt extremely grateful to him!
Hearing Xiao Li's sarcastic remark, he immediately felt uncomfortable!
"Just as it sounds!"
Xiao Li ignored Jiang Hongxin's reaction and continued on his own, "He's so boastful, and you still call him low-key? Do you have a misunderstanding of the word 'low-key'?"
Jiang Hongxin and Jiang Xiongjing were puzzled. Jiang Hongxin was about to ask further.
However, this time, before he could even ask, the car had already driven into the samurai village. Fang Zheng'ao, seeing that the village was silent, couldn't help but question, "Why is it so quiet? Where are the samurai people???"
This was the samurai's main base. With two cars, such large targets entering, not a single person had appeared to stop or question them!
Hearing this, Jiang Xiongjing, Jiang Hongxin, and Xiao Li all became puzzled.
Then, at Fang Zheng'ao's signal, they stopped the cars, and those inside got out.
After getting out, they looked around in all directions, still not seeing a single person!
"Team Leader Fang, did the samurai move? Are they no longer here?"
A member from the rear car approached Fang Zheng'ao and asked.
Fang Zheng'ao stood in place, scanned the surroundings again, and commanded, "Everyone spread out and investigate to see what's going on! Where have all the samurai gone!"
