"Such intense killing intent!"
It seemed the Land of Snow did not merely contain White Zetsu's presence. It even hid quite a few experts. It was nothing like a sparsely populated land.
Ye Liang looked into the distance in disbelief.
Over the past few years, he had taken on quite a few bounty missions, so he had a unique sensitivity to even faint killing intent. The killing intent in the Land of Snow could no longer be described as merely abundant. Comparing it to an ocean would not be an exaggeration.
"Miss Kazahana, has the Land of Snow had any major festivals recently?" Ye Liang suddenly asked.
"A festival? Oh, right. Our country was often attacked by bandits in the past. Later, a group of samurai defeated them. To thank them, the king at the time established the Martial Arts Festival in autumn. It should be about time for it now."
"The Martial Arts Festival?"
Ye Liang's gaze shifted. If it was samurai, then it was easier to understand.
Ninja mostly relied on Chakra as their medium, so they did not possess killing intent themselves. Samurai were different. They needed to temper their killing intent in order to improve their swordsmanship!
If a group of samurai had gathered in the Land of Snow, then the source of all that killing intent made sense.
"Alright, I have no more questions. Let's get moving." Ye Liang climbed back into the carriage.
The group soon arrived at the Land of Snow.
The capital gates, carved with Kirin statues on both sides, came into view.
Before Ye Liang could even enter, rows of soldiers led by officers marched out from within.
"Release princess Koyuki! Otherwise, the soldiers of the Land of Snow will execute you!" The soldiers formed a horizontal blockade before the carriage.
