It had been two days since the three of them arrived in Japan. Other than enjoying the scenery, they had not heard any news about Xu Fu.
After a few days of understanding, there was no unified country in Japan, except for a few factions that had gathered together to form a shogunate.
The entire East Ocean Continent was in chaos, and the commoners were living in misery.
Xiao Jingbai really didn't understand how a genius like Fei Liu was born in such an environment.
The level of martial arts in Japan was far from that of Daliang. It wasn't an exaggeration to say that the five of them were considered experts here.
" Lin Chen, I'm sure you're in despair. There's no such thing as Xu Fu's legend here."
Mei Changsu said teasingly. The latter squatted at the side and gloomily circled around.
Alright, let's go back. The Xu Fu you're looking for isn't here at all."
Xiao Jingbai also laughed from the side. His purpose for going to Japan this time was to find Feiliu, but looking at the situation, he probably wouldn't be able to find it.
Lin said," I think we should go back early. Japan isn't fun at all."
The three of them looked at each other and smiled.
The strange movement of a black shadow 100 meters away attracted his attention. Xiao Jingbai raised his hand to signal the two of them to be quiet.
The two of them still maintained their original expressions, but their hands were on their weapons.
" Interesting, we were actually surrounded by hundreds of people unknowingly. I only noticed it when we were within a hundred meters."
Lin Chen opened his folding fan and hid his cultivation while guarding Mei Changsu.
"No, the method of concealment is just a little special. The aura is not strong. It seems that he wants to launch a sneak attack. Protect Changsu."
As soon as he finished speaking, dozens of black projectiles shot toward Xiao Jingbai's position.
These throwing objects stopped less than a meter away from his body. Xiao Jingbai saw a very familiar cross-shaped hidden weapon.
The official road of Langzhou.
The centurion of the Imperial Army couldn't help but walk up to King Ji's carriage and say,"
Le Nu suddenly opened the curtains, and Prince Ji's head shot out from the carriage.
" What's the rush? Imperial brother didn't set a time for me to return. I still have to stay at the Flying Snow Manor for a while."
Inside the carriage, Prince Ji was still enjoying the music played by the musicians. His eyes were slightly closed, and he seemed to be at ease.
Hiss hiss!
Suddenly, the sound of horses neighing could be heard from outside. The carriage that had suddenly stopped almost made Prince Ji roll out.
If not for the two musicians pulling him back, Prince Ji would have made a fool of himself.
" What are you doing? Why did you suddenly stop?" Prince Ji, who had scrambled to his feet, was instantly enraged. He opened the curtains and saw five children blocking the line.
Your Highness, there are five children blocking the way. Be careful of an ambush."
The Centurion gestured for the Imperial Army to get into formation, and the surrounding Imperial Army soldiers nervously looked around.
These five children were the Hua siblings. The elder sister, Hua Manhua, held up a token with white characters.
On the carriage, Prince Ji stared at the token with narrowed eyes. A familiar silhouette flashed across his mind.
"Wait!"
Seeing that the Imperial Army was about to fire their arrows, Lord Ji immediately shouted.
" You're from the Flying Snow Manor."
Upon hearing the question, Hua Manhua put the token back into her sleeve and shouted.
"Prince Ji, we are from the Flying Snow Manor. We received your letter and were ordered to come and receive you."
Hearing this, Prince Ji's interest was piqued as he spoke to the centurion.
" Put down your weapons. Let the White Prince's men come over."
"But wangye, their identities."
"What about them? They have Jing Bai's token in their hands. Who else in the world do you think can get a token from him?"
Unable to win against Prince Ji, the centurion had no choice but to prevent Hua Man's group of five from entering. The five little ones passed through the Imperial Army's line of defense and walked to the carriage.
The centurion's hand was still on his sword. As long as the five little fellows made any strange movements, he would immediately react.
The five of them cupped their hands at the same time. Big Sister Blooming Flower took out the token from her sleeve again. After looking at it carefully for a moment, a simple and honest smile appeared on his face.
Who are you to Jingbai?"
The flower replied,"Your highness, we are the manor lord's students. The manor lord hasn't been around recently, so it was grandpa butler who asked us to come and fetch you."
At the mention of the butler's son, Prince Ji's expression changed slightly.
It was a well-known matter in the entire court who Xiao Jingbai took away when he left Jinling. There was no need to say who this butler was.
"Come, come! Get on the carriage. It's such a cold day, and look at how red your faces are."
Lord Lou! There's no need. Teacher told us that we have to take it one step at a time if it's not necessary."
"What are you saying?"
Prince Ji said to the centurion beside him as he rubbed Blooming Flowering Pavilion's face, which was red from the cold.
"Alright, let these children follow. Jingbai left at the right time. I'm not afraid that I won't have a reason to tell Imperial Brother, hehe."
At that time, Emperor Liang had ordered him to personally hand the sword to Jing Bai. Since Jing Bai was out on a trip, wasn't that a good reason?
Faced with Prince Ji, the centurion could only swallow his pride and hope to get to Merlin as soon as possible so that he could have a good night's sleep.
The flying dart in front of him was the weapon of the Japanese Ninja class, the Cross-shaped Dart.
Dozens of leaves shot into the forest at a speed invisible to the naked eye. Soon, the muffled sound of a corpse falling to the ground could be heard.
No, it's possible that his tongue was cut off."
Recalling the cruelty of ninja training, Xiao Jingbai immediately denied Lin Chen's words.
The ninjas who were pressed against the mountain wall by the continuous leaves finally could not help but pull themselves out and reveal themselves in front of the three of them.
At a glance, there were about 40 people, and each of them carried two tachi on their backs.
Lin Chen spread out his fan and fanned himself. He looked relaxed, but he was actually transferring his internal strength to the fan.
The group of people did not seem to have heard Lin Chen's words. They pulled out the two tachi swords behind them and charged forward.
You protect Changsu. Let me do it. There's no need to ask; they probably don't have tongues."
"Yo!" It was rare for him to fail. I want to laugh at you for the rest of my life."
As he spoke, he was about to wave his fan to kill the fleeing ninja, but he was stopped by Xiao Jingbai's hand.
Lin Chen suddenly cried out in shock. This was a movement technique that even Langya Pavilion did not record. It had only been displayed in legends.
Bai said," Maybe you're right. It's rumored that the leader of the Contending Hundred Schools of Thought is Xu Fu. This kind of movement technique isn't even engraved in Langya Pavilion."
Xiao Jingbai didn't finish his sentence. The three of them looked at each other and used their lightness skills to catch up.
The official road-
After a few hours of travel, Lord Ji and his group finally passed the Merlin Territory and were heading towards the Merlin Mountains.
As soon as they passed Merlin's territory, a person hiding in the forest on the official road left quickly.
This person was the Heavenly Spring Manor's Manor Lord, Zhuo Dingfeng. Zhuo Dingfeng, who had already reached Merlin's level, was not in a hurry to meet up with the Hanging Mirror Bureau.
No matter how strong he was, he wouldn't go anywhere like a bandit. Zhuo Dingfeng didn't think that the other party was a genius like Xiao Jingbai.
Zhuo Dingfeng, who had been using his lightness skill to rush to the meeting point, stopped in his tracks when he saw the stall with the four-corner mark.
When the stall owner saw Zhuo Dingfeng, he hurriedly ran to his side and made a gesture in a secret place. Zhuo Dingfeng followed the stall owner into the stall.
There was a hole in the floor of the room. This was the hiding spot that the Hanging Mirror Bureau had quickly dug out over the past few days.
Milord, aren't you a little too late?"
Zhuo Dingfeng was greeted by a member of the Hanging Mirror Bureau who had just entered the secret passage.
" I arrived long ago. I was just waiting at the border to observe their strength."
Did Milord gain anything new?"
Zhuo said,"The intelligence is similar to yours. There are 100 soldiers in the Imperial Army, but there are five more children with swords. It shouldn't be a big problem."
Humph! The leader turned around and returned to his seat. Zhuo Dingfeng was an expert of Lang Ya, after all. Even the Xuanjing Bureau had to show him some respect.
The consequences of offending the other party were not something a small soldier like him could bear. Xia Jiang would not offend a Lang Ya expert just to protect him.
After learning from Zhuo Dingfeng that King Ji had entered the Merlin Territory, everyone had their bellies in the secret passage around the stall.
The stall owner, disguised as a Death Attendant of the Hanging Mirror Department, walked to the front of the group and shouted at the Imperial Army.
" Officials, sit down and drink some water shells. There's still quite a long way up the mountain. Why don't you sit down and drink some herbal tea?"
Sensing that the group had stopped again, Prince Ji stuck his head out of the carriage.
The centurion said,"Your Highness, there's a small stall up ahead. I want the soldiers to drink some water. There aren't many rivers along the way, so the soldiers are already extremely thirsty."
" Don't you have water bags?" The centurion and the surrounding Imperial Army soldiers rolled their eyes and looked at Prince Ji in silence.
"Hehehe! You're still throwing a tantrum at me. Alright, go and drink some water. Remember, you can't give me less money."
Yes! The 100 soldiers had to drink separately. This was the rule of the Imperial Army.
The goal of the Xuanjing Division and the others was to make these 50 people lose their ability to fight. The remaining 50 people who had refined the Basic Sword Technique were enough to deal with them.
Aren't you guys going to drink some water?" Prince Ji, who had nothing better to do, asked Le Nu to open the curtains while he sat at the entrance of the carriage and chatted with the five little ones.
Your highness, the manor lord warned us that we shouldn't drink water when we're outside unless we fill it with water ourselves."
Hua Manyue said cutely. Among the five little guys, Hua Manyue, who was the third sister, was actually more like a baby.
"Humph! What is that fellow Jingbai teaching you all day? He doesn't have any fun at all."
"Grandpa Prince Ji, you can't say bad things about the manor lord. The manor lord said that we're suffering now for the future…"
Peng, peng, peng! The Imperial Army soldiers sitting in the stalls and drinking water all fainted on the ground, and dozens of figures in night clothes flew out from the ground.
"Lie Feixue Sword Formation, protect your highness! Let's return to the carriage first."
As the eldest sister, Blooming Flower reacted quickly. At the same time, she turned her gaze to Blooming Flower Pavilion behind her. The latter smiled excitedly.
The Imperial Army soldiers who were close to the ambush point had already died in battle, and the rest of the Imperial Army soldiers were also being quickly reaped. Seeing this scene, Prince Ji immediately retreated back into the carriage.
"Children, come in quickly! It's too dangerous, too dangerous."
The Imperial Army was no match for the Death Attendants. In just a few moments, only 20 of the 50 Imperial Army soldiers who had not fainted were left.
