Chapter 80: Certain Death
"It is absolutely true!"
"It was that kid named Lin Feng who did it!"
"Who is Lin Feng?" Yamamoto Daxiang asked in a fit of rage.
He could not believe that his most capable subordinate, a Superior Ninja of the Eastern Island Nation, had actually been killed by someone.
"Lin Feng is the eldest young master of the Lin Family, an orphan who survived the Lin Family's annihilation case several years ago!"
"The people from the Viper Mercenary Group were also killed by this kid, and he even saved the lives of the eldest Miss Ye and Ye Yuanshan!" the guard replied, trembling.
Slap! Yamamoto Daxiang sent this guard flying with a single strike of his palm.
The expressions of the several figures nearby varied; some were shocked, some were suspicious, but most were furious.
At this moment, a voice came from outside: "Mr. Ye has arrived!"
The next moment, a figure was seen hurrying in from outside the door; it was Ye Shaolong.
When Ye Shaolong learned that Lin Feng had headed to the Viper Mercenary Group's stronghold, he had come to find Yamamoto Daxiang at the first opportunity.
He had only just arrived at the entrance of the villa when he learned the news of the Viper Mercenary Group's destruction from his scouts.
This news struck Ye Shaolong's heart hard; he was filled with shock and fear!
That kid was simply terrifyingly strong!
Now, the only person he could rely on was Yamamoto Daxiang!
"Ye-kun!"
"Mr. Yamamoto!" Ye Shaolong bowed deeply to Yamamoto Daxiang.
Afterward, he briefly explained the situation, and Yamamoto Daxiang's expression turned so gloomy it seemed as if it were about to drip water.
"You say this person is over twenty, and not even twenty-five?" Yamamoto Daxiang was shocked to the core.
Heize Yilang was the most elite Superior Ninja of the Eastern Island Nation, having practiced Bushido for a full forty-plus years.
In addition to Ninjutsu, Heize Yilang's achievements in Sword Dao were also extraordinary.
With this kind of strength, he could even walk sideways across the entire Dragon Kingdom!
Yet, he never expected him to be killed by a kid no older than twenty-five!
For the Yamamoto Family and the entire Dongying, this was simply a supreme humiliation.
"No one has ever dared to kill our Dongying people!"
"I don't care how much ability this kid has; since he killed someone from our Yamamoto Family, I want him to die without a burial place!"
"I will make this kid pay the price!"
Swish, swish, swish! The several men wearing Bushido robes stood up one after another; they were all Yamamoto Daxiang's subordinates, and all possessed the strength of at least a Middle Ninja.
At this time, Ye Shaolong suddenly said: "Mr. Yamamoto, Heize-kun's body has already been taken away by the people from Dragon Soul!"
"Once Dragon Soul intervenes, this matter becomes troublesome!" Ye Shaolong's expression was extremely ugly.
He had not expected that old thing Ye Yuanshan to actually be able to call over Dragon Soul.
Although that old thing had a granddaughter who was from Kyoto and had joined Dragon Soul several years ago.
But she hated Ye Yuanshan to the bone!
For these past twenty-plus years, she had not even visited the Ye Family once, and even Ye Shaolong did not know what Ye Yuanshan's granddaughter looked like.
He never expected that at such a critical juncture, the other party would still be able to step in and help Ye Yuanshan.
If Dragon Soul really intended to manage this matter, Ye Shaolong would likely have to reconsider his plans!
"Dragon Soul?"
As a person of Dongying, Yamamoto Daxiang was naturally unaware of Dragon Soul's reputation.
"I don't care about any Dragon Soul or Dog Soul; tomorrow I will personally lead men to demand Heize-kun's body. He sacrificed himself for the Yamamoto Family, and no matter what, I must get his body back!"
"I want to hold the most luxurious funeral for him, and I will also use Lin Feng's blood to pay tribute to Heize-kun!"
Yamamoto Daxiang's eyes were filled with endless killing intent!
"Mr. Yamamoto, I will be hosting a banquet tomorrow, and that little bastard Lin Feng has already agreed to my invitation!"
"We can take this opportunity to set an ambush and wipe out the Ye Family and him all at once!" Ye Shaolong proposed.
Upon hearing his words, Yamamoto Daxiang's eyes suddenly lit up: "Good!"
"Bring more men tomorrow. By the way, Ye-kun, this is a colorless and odorless poison; tomorrow you can do this..."
Yamamoto Daxiang whispered into Ye Shaolong's ear, and upon hearing this, Ye Shaolong was instantly overjoyed, a ferocious smile spreading across his face.
"Understood, Yamamoto-kun, I will go do it right away!"
Ye Shaolong quickly left the villa.
Meanwhile, in Jinling Province, inside a magnificent hall, a corpse lay coldly on the ground.
Crying sounds came from all around; on both sides of the hall, dozens of Martial Artists stood in two rows, dressed in uniform, their eyes filled with grief.
"Yunlong, my son!"
"Who exactly is it? Who killed you?"
"I, Dugu He, swear that if I do not avenge this, I will not be a man!"
"When I catch the murderer who killed you, I will definitely have him carved into a thousand pieces!"
"Wuu wuu!"
"Son!"
An old man over seventy, wearing gray robes, knelt on the ground, holding Dugu Yunlong's corpse and weeping bitterly.
This was Dugu Villa, which was also the headquarters of the Dugu Sect.
And this old man was none other than Dugu Yunlong's father, the Sect Master of the Dugu Sect, Dugu He.
When Dugu He received the news of his son's death, he fainted on the spot and remained unconscious for a full day and night before waking from his agony.
Dugu Yunlong was his only son; Dugu He had only fathered this son at the age of fifty, which could be considered having a child in his old age.
In the entire city of Jinling, there was no one who did not heap praise upon this favored son of heaven, and no family or faction dared to offend the Dugu Sect.
Dugu He never dreamed that his son would go on a trip to Jiangbei and return as a corpse.
Regret, resentment, and endless fury almost swallowed Dugu He whole.
"Report!"
"Sect Master, Colonel Su has arrived!" a Martial Artist rushed into the great hall and knelt to say.
At this moment, several military vehicles pulled up in a hurry at the entrance of Dugu Villa, and then a figure wearing a military uniform quickly stepped down from the vehicle.
Several officers followed behind the man, and the group of five or six people entered Dugu Villa together.
The man in the lead was solemn and grave, the expression on his face incomparably heavy; he was none other than Colonel Wu Chenglong of the Jiangnan Province War Department.
The two people following behind him were the very same two officers who had previously been repelled by Lin Feng.
When Wu Chenglong's gaze noticed the corpse on the ground, he was instantly shocked.
Young Master Dugu... really is dead!
Killed by that brat named Lin Feng!
"Colonel Wu, that little bastard killed my son and two Elders of the Dugu Sect!"
"It is simply audacious!"
"I must make him pay with blood!" Dugu He said angrily.
Seeing that Dugu He was enraged, Colonel Wu hurriedly stepped forward to comfort him, attempting to calm his fury.
"Sect Master Dugu, rest assured, I will definitely give you an explanation for this matter!"
"Debts must be repaid, and a life must be paid for with a life; this has been the principle since ancient times!"
"I will definitely capture that little bastard and hand him over to you for disposal!"
"This time, he will undoubtedly die!" Wu Chenglong guaranteed.
He and Dugu He already had a deep relationship and usually addressed each other as brothers, and it was also out of respect for him that the Dugu Sect went to Jiangbei to stand up for the Wang Family.
Wu Chenglong bore half the responsibility for this matter, and he had to give Dugu He a satisfactory answer.
