"Speak, how do you wish to die!"
Upon hearing these words and feeling the murderous intent emanating from Ye Xunhuan, Sato Youichi’s body jolted uncontrollably as if struck by electricity!
A brief exchange had made it clear to him that he was no match for Ye Xunhuan; he was simply too terrifying!
At that moment, Sato Youichi’s heart was filled with fear, and his will to fight had completely dissipated.
He was frightened by Ye Xunhuan, truly frightened.
It was only a few moves, and his previous advantages had completely disappeared, and moreover, Ye Xunhuan had disarmed and knocked him down!
Everything happened too fast, so fast that he couldn’t react.
The next moment, under Sato Youichi’s gaze, Ye Xunhuan, holding the long sword, with its blade pointing to the ground, stepped towards Sato Youichi step by step.
The sharp blade scraping against the ground emitted a piercing screech!
This screeching sound, like the tolling of a soul-belling bell from hell, immediately pulled Sato Youichi back to reality.
After regaining his senses, the first thought in Sato Youichi’s mind was to run!
Yes, to run!
He couldn’t defeat Ye Xunhuan even with a sword in hand, let alone now that he was unarmed!
How could he dare continue fighting Ye Xunhuan? Continuing the fight would only lead him to a dead end.
No sooner had this thought arisen than Sato Youichi sprang up from the ground and made to flee.
"Thinking of running?" Seeing Sato Youichi getting up and preparing to flee, Ye Xunhuan immediately shouted, "Do you think you can escape?"
"Snap!"
Ye Xunhuan’s right foot suddenly stomped on the ground, causing it to crack and tremble as if the earth itself was shaking.
Up ahead, Sato Youichi, who was sprinting, momentarily paused his steps due to the impact of Ye Xunhuan’s stomp!
"Swoosh!"
At the same time, Ye Xunhuan sprang from his spot, shooting towards Sato Youichi like a cannonball.
"Swoosh!"
In the blink of an eye, Ye Xunhuan appeared in front of Sato Youichi, swinging the long sword in his hand directly at Sato Youichi!
Before Ye Xunhuan’s sword could fall, Sato Youichi immediately felt engulfed by a terrifying murderous intent and instinctively dodged to the side!
Sato Youichi’s dodge caused Ye Xunhuan’s sword strike to miss.
Having dodged Ye Xunhuan’s lethal strike, Sato Youichi barely had time to catch his breath when a leg shadow attacked him!
"Bang!"
A leg landed heavily on Sato Youichi’s body, sending him flying with immense force.
"Clang!"
After hitting the ground, Sato Youichi’s body involuntarily twitched.
"Don’t bother trying to escape; you can’t run away." Ye Xunhuan said expressionlessly, "Instead, tell me how you wish to die..."
While speaking, Ye Xunhuan once again approached Sato Youichi, sword in hand.
Watching Ye Xunhuan approaching step by step, the fear inside Sato Youichi surged uncontrollably like a breached dam, but even so, he suppressed it, not allowing his fear to show on his face, "How... how are you so strong?"
"I told you, Tengu barely had a chance to draw a sword in front of me, do you think you are stronger than Tengu?" Ye Xunhuan said disdainfully, "Sato Youichi, do you think the title ’Marshal’ is for nothing?"
"Many have tried to kill me, but in the end, I survive while they repent for their folly in hell," Ye Xunhuan stated blandly, "If you had just stayed in your little island, you might have lived longer, but unfortunately, you knew the risks of Tiger Mountain and still walked into danger. Aren’t you asking for death?"
As Ye Xunhuan reached Sato Youichi, a dark glint flashed across Sato Youichi’s eyes, and he swung his right hand, launching six plum dart missiles hurtling towards Ye Xunhuan.
Fast!
This sneak attack was incredibly fast, giving Ye Xunhuan no chance to dodge.
In Sato Youichi’s view, at such close range, it was impossible for Ye Xunhuan to dodge, and not dodging meant only one outcome: death!
But Sato Youichi did not know that his disciple had also used this move before, yet Ye Xunhuan was still alive and well!
Seeing the six rapidly incoming plum blossom darts, a slight smile curled at the corners of Ye Xunhuan’s mouth, drawing a thick expression of disdain.
The next moment, only to see Ye Xunhuan’s right hand tremble as he swiftly swung out six slashes, followed immediately by a series of crisp sounds!
Upon seeing this scene, Sato Youichi’s eyes widened suddenly, his face filled with disbelief. He had never dreamed that Ye Xunhuan could possess such quick speed and actually manage to block the six plum blossom darts!
After blocking the darts, Ye Xunhuan said indifferently, "Your disciple also used this move against me, but he is now repenting in hell!"
As soon as the words fell, Ye Xunhuan immediately raised the sword in his hand towards Sato Youichi’s neck.
"Marshal, do you think you can kill me just like that?"
Before the words even finished, Sato Youichi suddenly disappeared from the spot.
After seeing this scene, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Ye Xunhuan’s mouth, "The Art of Five Elements Escape, interesting!"
As soon as the words fell, Ye Xunhuan’s figure flashed abruptly, and he swiftly swung out three slashes with his long sword!
"Phut!"
"Phut!"
"Phut!"
Three muffled sounds rang out immediately, and then Sato Youichi appeared next to Ye Xunhuan, his clothes completely torn by Ye Xunhuan, with crimson blood oozing out!
"Swoosh!"
The next moment, the long sword in Ye Xunhuan’s hand was directly pressed against Sato Youichi’s neck, "Don’t move, or it could cost a life!"
"You... you..."
As if he knew what Sato Youichi was about to ask, Ye Xunhuan said lightly, "The smell of blood, I’m very sensitive to it!"
After hearing Ye Xunhuan’s words, Sato Youichi finally understood why his Art of Five Elements Escape had no effect on Ye Xunhuan.
It turned out that the smell of blood had betrayed him!
"Tell me, how did you know I was in Huaxia!" Ye Xunhuan’s voice suddenly changed. 𝓃𝓸𝓿𝓹𝓾𝓫.𝓬ℴ𝓶
"If I tell you, will you let me go?"
"Why are you and your disciple alike, always wanting to bargain?" Ye Xunhuan said helplessly, "Speak, I’ll let you go!"
"Really?"
"Do I need to lie to you?"
Sato Youichi hesitated for a moment and then said, "Will you really let me go?"
"If you want to die, I don’t mind killing you!"
"I’ll tell!"
"Better make it quick!"
"I don’t know who that person was, he wore a ghost-face mask and appeared at our Koga school, throwing me a note!"
"You don’t know who he was?"
"No, he was too strong, we couldn’t stop him, he told me, my disciple was killed by you, you were in Jiangzhong City!"
"Alright, you can go now!"
Upon hearing Ye Xunhuan’s words, Sato Youichi hurriedly ran away.
But the next moment, the long sword in Ye Xunhuan’s right hand was immediately thrown!
"Phut!"
The long sword directly penetrated Sato Youichi’s body!
"You... you..."
"My promises to an enemy, cheaper than a whore!"
