The reality was just as the Japanese ninja had expected. When the Japanese ninja's Killer God's Single Blade Slash slashed towards Zhu Houtao, Lin Yuantu reluctantly withdrew his attack and stood in front of Zhu Houtao, blocking the attack for him.
Lin Yuantu knew very well that this Japanese ninja didn't want to kill Zhu Houzhao at all. He was just trying to surround him and force him to change his moves. As long as Lin Yuantu withdrew his attack to protect Zhu Houzhao, the ninja would instantly find an opportunity to go into Stealth again and escape a thousand miles away.
Lin Yuantu was very clear about all this, but this was an open scheme. He had no other choice. Because he didn't dare to not save Zhu Houzhao. Otherwise, the final result would be the three of them playing together.
In terms of true strength, the talented Lin Yuantu was clearly above the Japanese ninja. However, in terms of adaptability, confidence, and decisiveness, Lin Yuantu, who was only in his twenties, was far inferior to the Japanese ninja who had experienced countless assassinations.
This had nothing to do with talent or aptitude. It was just the accumulation of experience and the foundation nurtured by countless battles.
Everyone in the ninja industry knew that the death rate was extremely high. However, those who could advance to Jounin had experienced countless killings and life and death tests. Their true combat strength far exceeded their internal energy cultivation. Fighting and escaping were common for them.
As expected, the Japanese ninja took advantage of Lin Yuantu's rescue of Zhu Houzhao to scatter a ball of fluorescent powder and enter Stealth mode again.
"Damn it!" Lin Yuantu defeated Yagyu Danma Mamoru's Killing God's Single Blade Slash with a single strike. He cursed in exasperation," Despicable and shameless guy, if I don't kill you today, I'll write your name backwards!”
The current Lin Yuantu was young and frivolous. From the beginning of his cultivation to the late stage of the Connate Realm, he had made great progress. He hadn't suffered many setbacks by Patriarch Sunflower's side, so he wasn't as calm as he was at his peak. He had let this Japanese ninja escape time and time again, and he was already furious!
On the other hand, Zhu Houzhao's expression was very calm. He looked at the spot where the Japanese ninja disappeared and smiled,"As expected of the Japanese Jounin.”
" It's a pity that your weird tricks are useless against me." Zhu Houzhao sneered and snorted in his heart." I'm sure that my royal uncle will be very sad to kill you, his right-hand man!"”
Whoosh!
Zhu Houzhao drew his sword!
There were not many words to describe this sword. There was only one word: fast.
It was extremely fast, so fast that it broke through the boundaries of time and space. It was as if the sword had only been pulled out and then withdrawn. There was no movement in between. It was even difficult to see where Zhu Houzhao had drawn the sword from.
Zhu Houzhao's eyes flickered with a red light, emitting a demonic light that seemed to be able to see through everything.
Zhu Houzhao's hands were once again placed on his waist. There, the bloodless Greenfeather Flexible Sword had already returned to his belt, as if it had never been pulled out.
However, in the void, a flower of blood splattered out. It was an incomparably beautiful flower of blood.
Then, the figure of the ninja slowly appeared. He covered his neck, his face full of disbelief. He looked at Zhu Houzhao and wanted to say something, but before he could say anything, he fell down and lost his breath.
" Yuantu, go take a look. Who is he?" Zhu Houzhao acted as if he had just done a trivial thing to kill the ninja that even Lin Yuantu found troublesome. He didn't look excited at all. He took out a bottle of healing medicine from his pocket, poured out one pill, took it, and sat down to heal his wounds.
In the Ming Empire's treasury, the empire's most precious elixirs, martial arts classics, divine weapons, and self-defense armor were collected. Before leaving, Zhu Youtang allowed Zhu Houzhao to enter the treasury and choose at will. Therefore, Zhu Houzhao's equipment, elixirs, and martial arts skills were the highest configuration in the world.
With the support of the elixirs of the Imperium, a small injury was nothing. It could only help Zhu Houzhao sharpen himself and become stronger.
Fine steel could only become steel after being refined hundreds of times. It had always been easy and young. If one wanted to grow into a peerless expert, it was inevitable that one would have to go through hundreds of battles.
" Yes." Lin Yuantu looked at Zhu Houtao with a complicated expression. Although he had countless questions in his heart, he still went to the ninja first and took off the ninja's hood.
What entered his eyes was a man with white hair. He was about 50 years old and had a gloomy face. Even though he was dead, his face was still covered in a layer of terrifying killing intent. It was obvious that there were many assassins on his body. It had definitely reached a terrifying level.
At this moment, his eyes were wide open. There was only shock and disbelief in his eyes.
Even at the moment of death, this ninja still could not figure out how Zhu Houzhao had easily discovered him. He died with regrets!!!
