1183 Open War (2/2)
Kitagawa was so resentful inwardly. He knew why General Fukuda only left Jun Yuchu with him. That man definitely believed that Jun was just a weak hunchback, so he might as well leave Jun to him. But those Black-robed Guards were his trusted men. He took them all so he could order his men to charge through the enemy lines. That man would never care even if they were all dead!
”Have you been successful in condensing your Buddhist Sarira, Jun?”
The hunchbacked middle-aged man's expression slightly changed. He quickly glanced at the tens of people around and respectfully said, ”I've completed it 2 years ago.”
Kitagawa happily nodded. He unsheathed the long katana on his back and instantly bolted to the two genetic warriors a little more than 10 meters away. The blade slashed forward and directly beheaded those two genetic warriors who didn't react fast enough.
”No need to hide anymore since you've completed it, Jun! Let's kill them all and leave.” Kitagawa fiercely shouted.
The hunchbacked middle-aged man quickly flashed to another direction several meters away like light smoke. Several objects that were instantly shot from him instantly pierced and ripped the throats of three genetic warriors directly.
The slaughter was carried out in an extremely fast manner. The duo killed a total of 46 genetic warriors in just 2 minutes.
The hunchbacked man wiped the blood on his machete before he came to Kitagawa's front and respectfully asked, ”What do we do next, Sir Kitagawa?”
Kitagawa glanced around and, after making sure there were no living people left in the surroundings, he coldly said, ”General Fukuda has begun to distrust me, so we no longer need to stay here anymore. He's a heartless man and I'm not that better than him either. He and I are the same breed. Pity I have no means to save those Black-robed Guards he took with him to their deaths, though. Let's leave! We'll hike down the mountain to carry out other missions somewhere else.”
”Other missions? We still have other missions?” asked the hunchbacked man in surprise.
A hint of helplessness flitted across Kitagawa's face as he nodded. ”There is, in fact, another fearsome force in Japan. This force is no way worse than the Joyous Palace and the Gene Camp. The battle between these two parties now was due to their machinations as well. And now we are taking orders from them to preserve our lives.”
A horrified look appeared on the hunchbacked man's face. Never in his wildest dreams did he ever expect that a third cultivation force existed in Japan. He had been serving under Kitagawa for decades and knew the man inside out. A fearless man who had never been afraid of anything now had a hint of helplessness when he mentioned that force. He could also sense a bit of fear in his voice, which made him secretly shocked.

Up ahead in the mountain top.
Tang Xiu calmly stood in silence atop the pine tree while watching members of the Joyous Palace and combatants from the Gene Camp appear. He had activated the Invisibility Charm, completely restrained his aura, and even closed off the pores all over his body. Shortly put, he no longer produced any fluctuation of energy exchange. That was the reason nobody from both sides was able to detect him.
”KILL…”
”KILL…”
Then… the sight of thousands of experts going berserk and crazily engaging in fights filled the mountains. The intensity of the battle was so insane that it was out of the average people's imagination.
Buzz…
Buzz…
Buzz…
Coming from three directions, three spiritual senses rapidly transmitted to Japan. A few breaths were spent as these three perceptions scanned the whole mountain and ”watched” the battle there. Obviously, some super-powerful experts from other countries sent their spiritual senses to watch it.

The United States of America.
In an unusual separated pavilion in San Francisco, an old man, who was covered in black fog that made his figure faintly discernible, was facing a glittering crystal ball that emitted out soft white light, which he kept injecting the black fog into.
Whoosh…
A figure flickered and bolted like lightning from afar and appeared in front of the old man in less than a minute. Eyes filled with intense shock, he directly knelt on the floor and quietly waited.
”That's quite an interesting sight.”
The black mist-covered old man opened his eyes and spoke with a contemptuous smile. The moment he opened them, it was like a dazzling substance burst out and shot the floor in front of him, creating a 2m wide and half-meter-deep dark pit.
The Caucasian man who knelt there suddenly looked up and asked, ”What exactly happened, Grand Wizard?”
The old man shook his head and smilingly said, ”A flock of ants is fighting each other, but two of those ants are quite remarkable… for ants.”
”A battle? Where is it?” asked the Caucasian man hurriedly. ”And who are they? Would you like me to head over there immediately? You told us before to rush to any large-scale battle if possible since we can benefit from it.”
