Chapter 524: Chapter 0524: Kill You
The night was desolate as water, darkness enveloped the city from above, and the brilliant neon lights emitted a gentle glow that illuminated this bustling metropolis, resembling a mirage that engulfed countless people, rendering them incapable of extricating themselves.
Under this blurry night, a silver sedan streaked across the road like a meteor falling from the sky, vanishing in a flash with lightning speed.
Ye Xunhuan sat in the car, his right hand on the steering wheel, a cigarette clutched in his left hand, his face filled with a grim intent to kill.
Since returning to Huaxia, Ye Xunhuan had seldom taken action, let alone initiate a massacre.
This time, Miyamoto Kojiro had completely enraged him, filling Ye Xunhuan’s heart with a violent aura; all he could think of was slaughtering Miyamoto Kojiro!
Not killing Miyamoto Kojiro would not quell the hatred in Ye Xunhuan’s heart.
After driving to Zhongzhou Port, Ye Xunhuan immediately stopped the car.
Because it was late at night, Zhongzhou Port was exceptionally quiet, with no one in sight apart from the sound of insects and birds.
After getting out of the car, Ye Xunhuan headed straight for a dock at Zhongzhou Port that had become completely desolate due to lack of repairs over the years.
The dock Ye Xunhuan headed for was small in the past and, with developments over time and changes in port shipping routes among various factors, had been abandoned.
This deserted dock, because no one cared for it, appeared very dilapidated; although there were some buildings around, they were rotting due to being poorly maintained over the years, and, moreover, the area was in complete disarray with plenty of trash piled around.
But now, at this long-abandoned dock, stood five people, three men and two women!
The two women were exquisitely beautiful and their figures were exceptionally stunning, while the three men were plain and unremarkable; one of them was even a dwarf.
It was an odd combination.
This odd combination was none other than Miyamoto Kojiro who, after obtaining the Taiji Seal, planned to leave. According to the prior agreement, he was at this abandoned dock, waiting for a ship.
At the moment, Miyamoto Kojiro held the Taiji Seal given to him by Qianhuan Liuyun in his hand, his eyebrows slightly furrowed as he stared intently at the Taiji Seal.
He always felt that something was off about the Taiji Seal in his hand, but he couldn’t pinpoint exactly what was wrong.
The only thing he knew was that understanding this object could not only make one a grandmaster of the mystical arts, a generation’s grandmaster, but could also grant access to everything left behind by the Marquis!
As he knew, the enchanting king and queen had obtained this object and, despite studying it for several years without fully understanding it, the little they did manage to comprehend allowed the couple to claim the position among the top ten lords. However, they were later killed by Ye Xunhuan, who then took their place.
The Taiji Seal thus passed into the hands of Ye Xunhuan.
But who could know that this object was originally Ye Xunhuan’s?
Initially, someone had schemed against Ye Xunhuan, his master, and his brothers, resulting in the enchanting king and queen taking the Taiji Seal that originally belonged to him.
Ye Xunhuan now taking it back was merely returning it to its rightful owner.
Suddenly, a bright light appeared from the pitch-black sea.
"Lord, the boat is coming!" Qianhuan Lanqin said respectfully to Miyamoto Kojiro upon seeing the light.
Upon hearing these words, Miyamoto Kojiro had just lifted his head when a chilling voice suddenly echoed around them, "So, your people are only arriving now?"
Upon hearing this abrupt voice, Miyamoto Kojiro and the others tensed up, realizing that someone had approached them without their noticing!
Miyamoto Kojiro thus deduced that the newcomer must be a master, and instinctively turned his head to look around.
The next moment, under the cover of night, a young man, drenched in blood on one side of his body, appeared in their sight.
Upon seeing the newcomer, Miyamoto Kojiro’s face drastically changed, almost instinctively shouting, "Marshal!"
That’s right!
This man was none other than Ye Xunhuan.
Seeing Ye Xunhuan, Miyamoto Kojiro’s heart instantly sank to the bottom.
How had he found him?
Had someone betrayed him?
But how could that be possible, how could anyone betray him?
Previously, he had told no one whether they were to leave or stay.
So it was definitely impossible for someone to have betrayed him, but how on earth did Ye Xunhuan find them?
For a moment, Miyamoto Kojiro’s heart was filled with unprecedented doubt.
"You run really slow!" Ye Xunhuan said calmly, "Is it because you’re deformed and your legs are too short to run properly?"
Upon hearing these severely insulting words from Ye Xunhuan, Miyamoto Kojiro’s face immediately darkened.
His physique was Miyamoto Kojiro’s taboo; he detested most when others mocked his stature and appearance.
Usually, those who dared to insult him this way had only one path: death.
If the man in front of him were not Ye Xunhuan, Miyamoto Kojiro would have already moved to slay him.
Even so, Miyamoto Kojiro’s face remained filled with a cold ferocity.
"Marshal, it seems you’ve just saved your wife."
"Thanks to you, I just rescued her!" Ye Xunhuan spoke softly, "I heard you were leaving, so I came personally to see you off!"
"So I should say thank you to you!"
"You indeed should thank me!" Ye Xunhuan said expressionlessly, "After all, you have the chance to be reborn as a human, and you won’t have to appear before everyone as a dwarf, subjected to their ridicule anymore!"
On hearing Ye Xunhuan’s words, Miyamoto Kojiro’s pupils suddenly constricted, "What do you mean?"
"To kill you!"
As the words fell, a cold and extremely domineering killing intent suddenly emanated from Ye Xunhuan and swept toward Miyamoto Kojiro.
At the next moment, Ye Xunhuan moved, springing forward like a ghost in the dark.
Seeing this, Miyamoto Kojiro’s pupils sharply constricted into the most perilous needle shapes, his right hand trembled, and a slender blade brimming with a deadly aura suddenly appeared in his hand.
"Swish!"
Just as Ye Xunhuan was about to confront him directly, Miyamoto Kojiro’s blade in his hand swiftly slashed out twice in succession!
"Cross-Slash!"
As the word was uttered, a gust of wind was immediately stirred up from the ground, whooshing toward Ye Xunhuan with a roaring sound. no𝚟𝚙u𝚋.c𝚘m
Miyamoto Kojiro’s sudden strike made Ye Xunhuan immediately halt his steps while he quickly dodged to the side, allowing the fierce Sword Qi to pass by him.
"Let’s attack together and kill him!"
In the midst of speaking, Miyamoto Kojiro had already sprung forward, swinging his sword in a slashing motion.
