Ninja Attack
Xia Weijun came to Jinmen last October.
As a direct disciple of Grandmaster, she wasn't there to be a director of the National Martial Arts Association; her main purpose was to find the [Ice Soul Powder] factory!
"The Devils secretly set up a drug manufacturing plant, with a monthly output of up to a thousand tons!"
Xia Weiyin had fair, smooth skin and a charming voice, but her expression was very serious.
"We tried everything, but we couldn't find the factory. Even some of our comrades from the [Killing for Benevolence Society] risked their lives to infiltrate the headquarters of the Jinmen Garrison Army, but they still couldn't find a trace of it."
Upon hearing this, everyone frowned.
A drug manufacturing plant with a monthly output of thousands of tons must be extremely large in scale, and theoretically it shouldn't be difficult to find.
At this moment, Hou Shaoyi suddenly got up, opened the window, and looked around, saying:
"Last night, I sent 'Dafa' to infiltrate the Devils concession to search for a drug manufacturing plant... He should be back soon."
The monkey on his shoulder had disappeared; apparently, it had gone off to do this.
A few seconds later, a leaf suddenly drifted in through the window.
The leaf seemed to be held by someone and moved swiftly in front of Lu Li, as if trying to land on his shoulder.
"Come here!"
Hou Shaoyi reached out and grabbed the leaf beneath, and a monkey materialized from the shadows, revealing its form.
It turns out that "Dafa" had placed a leaf on his forehead, which actually created an "optical camouflage" effect.
"A demon's illusion, please excuse my poor attempt."
Hou Shaoyi casually offered an explanation, then asked his spirit pet, "Ahhh~ Ohhh~"
The monkey opened its mouth and replied, "Oh! Oh!"
After making a few strange noises, Hou Shaoyi addressed the crowd again, saying, "We've searched the entire concession, and we really can't find it."
Upon hearing this, Nan Jinping asked in confusion, "Is the factory not in Jinmen?"
Hou Shaoyi shook his head and said, "There's simply no other place with the necessary conditions... Jinmen has convenient transportation, and there are Devils stationed there. Where else could we go if not here?"
"What should we do..." Nan Jinping said solemnly.
"This substance is a hundred times more insidious than opium; it's clearly a scheme by the Emperor of Izumo the nation's descendants. Once it spreads, the very foundation of the Divine Continent will be destroyed."
This revolutionary poison is bound to cause enormous damage.
Xia Weiyin stole a glance at Lu Li, wanting to hear what he had to say.
Li Yuanzhong also asked with a smile, "Young friend Lu, do you have any brilliant ideas?"
Under the gaze of the crowd, Lu Li only said one sentence, "Ask Ito Tairon."
This man was the commander of the "Jinmen Garrison Army," so he certainly wouldn't confess the truth. The so-called "interrogation" was actually torture.
Xia Weiyin's almond-shaped eyes lit up, and she was greatly moved. She immediately looked at her master.
Li Yuanzhong slowly said:
"Young friend, you should know that we have not yet officially started a war with Izumo, and I am currently a guest on Jiang Shixiang's turf. It is neither proper nor reasonable for me to take action."
Lu Li nodded and said, "I can do it myself. It's just a personal hobby of mine."
Li Yuanzhong asked with a smile, "To confront a Xiantian expert solely based on hobby, and to completely offend Izumo... there's absolutely no benefit in it. Don't you think it's reckless, young friend?"
Lu Li his hands in a fist salute and said, "Virtue is never solitary; it always has neighbors. Compared with you esteemed members of the [Killing for Benevolence Society], I have done far too little."
"Ha~ What a wonderful saying, 'Virtue is never alone; it always has neighbors.'"
Li Yuanzhong smiled and waved his sleeve, saying:
"In that case, go ahead and do it. I'll stop Jiang Shixiang and the Envoy of Izumo for you."
Xia Weiyin interjected:
"Lu Li's destruction of Xuanzang Temple and the Jiu Shan Sect indirectly cleared the way for the Jiang family. Now that he's destroying the Devils concession, he'll have to kowtow to Lu Li no matter what."
Li Yuanzhong and said, "This man is cunning and has grand ambitions. However, our greatest enemy right now is Izumo. Everything else is negotiable; it's just a matter of 'the meat rots in the pot' (meaning the situation remains unresolved)."
The old Daoist priest wanted to "unite all forces that can be united".
Having said that, Lu Li didn't waste any time and immediately went to cause trouble for Ito Tairon.
Recalling the oppressive feeling the other person had exerted on him that day, he actually longed to "rekindle their past relationship."
But the world is full of strange things; it turned out that Ito Tairon's people arrived first!
At this moment, Lu Li's expression suddenly hardened!
The flying sword on Li Yuanzhong's back was also instantly drawn...
But the next second, the flying sword went back in, and Lu Li's expression became strange.
Li Yuanzhong was utterly astonished: [Vermilion Bird!?]
~~~~~~~~~~
At that moment, a black vintage car was parked not far from Xiao Cha's house.
The three attackers, two men and one woman, took out headbands from their pockets and put them on.
This was an order issued after the Emperor ascended the throne, requiring ninjas to wear headbands representing their respective ninja villages when going on missions.
The woman was quite pretty, and as she licked her cherry lips excitedly, she said:
"What a wonderful thing it would be to kidnap their relatives and friends right under the noses of the powerful, and enjoy their expressions of impotent rage! Suzuki, Tanaka, are you ready?"
Suzuki was a short, aloof young man who simply nodded, his eyelids drooping.
Tanaka, with his square face, appeared much more composed. "Nami, we're only 5 kilometers from the Grandmaster of China, don't be careless."
"Don't worry~ I'll turn my excitement into motivation~"
Nami smiled sweetly, and then the three of them simultaneously revealed their wristwatches and started timing at the same time:
"30 seconds left... Deploy!!"
Three ninjas transformed into shadows, instantly leaping out of the car and heading straight for Xiao Cha's house.
Their speed was 50 meters per second, which is the average burst speed of Blood Exchange martial artist, equivalent to 180 kilometers per hour.
But they moved so silently that no passersby noticed them rushing past.
Covert operations and devastating strikes are exactly what ninjas excel at!
The three ninjas darted into Xiao Cha's yard in a matter of seconds. Coincidentally, the blind girl was just there... hanging clothes?
Which expert would wash their own clothes? A master Organ Refining could hire a whole bunch of servants to do it for them.
The three ninjas felt reassured:
"She's just a pretty young lady from a modest family, capture her alive!"
"As for the other one, kill him if you can!"
Two of the three male ninjas shot at Wan Qing, preparing to capture her alive.
Nami, on the other hand, acts as a backup, preventing Wan Qing from having any escape tricks and blocking reinforcements.
Sure enough, Xiao Cha instantly sensed the commotion and charged straight at them with her White Dragon Whip.
At the same time, A'da and Number 0, the puppets with the fastest reactions, also rushed out.
But distant water cannot quench a nearby fire; they were all too late to offer assistance.
Lu Li was able to leave with peace of mind not only because the two sides were close by, but also because of Wan Qing's flying sword!
Its sharpness alone is equivalent to enhancing one's true energy, and it also stores the mind and spirit of Out of Body True Master.
Even if Ito Tairon himself came, he wouldn't succeed so easily!
At this moment, without Wan Qing even having to think of it, the Blood Drinker Sword spontaneously flew out to protect its master.
With Lu Li's mental support, the flying sword struck Suzuki at a speed of 600 meters per second!
The short, aloof man's eyes gleamed with starlight, clearly indicating that he possessed the Spirit Refinement Realm. At this moment, he poured all his Internal Breath into his arm guard, preparing to take the hit head-on.
He was prepared to be seriously injured, even to the point of losing an arm.
But the flying sword ultimately belonged to Wan Qing, and was blessed by the Vermilion Bird's spirit.
When Thoughtless Meditation, one can ignore the interference of the demon infant.
At that moment, the blade flashed with a blazing red light, slicing across Suzuki's body.
The man froze, his face full of confusion... Then a vertical slit appeared on his forehead, and he split into two pieces, slowly sliding to the ground.
The Blood Exchange martial artist's bones, as strong as refined steel, were also neatly and smoothly cut open.
The edges were burning red-hot, and steam was rising from the internal organs... It was clearly subjected to "high-temperature cutting"!
Seeing his teammate's miserable state, Tanaka paused, then roared to suppress his fear, and reached for Wan Qing's head with both claws.
Wan Qing neither flinched nor avoided the attack; her eyes blazed with a fiery red light!
