Chapter 88 - Ninja Invitation
Ninja? Xiao Letian immediately reacted to this phrase. The figure running on the roof of the dorm right now was extremely similar to the figure of a ninja in a movie or television show. However, the person on the roof during the day wasn't wearing a classical night ninja attire.
On the rooftop, Xiang Shaolong was currently sparring with the Ninja in terms of movement skills. The two figures were like two leopard cats, dancing between the rooftops that had a radius of a hundred metres.
Although Xiao Letian was an absolute layman when it came to martial arts, but after looking at it for a while, he could see the difference in strength between both friend and foe. On the whole, Dragon Lord still held an overwhelming advantage, as long as the two figures clashed and suffered a hidden loss, then it would definitely be the ninja.
But after that, the ninja also became smarter, and only used his own strange movement skill to fight with Xiang Shaolong, trying to end the battle with a hidden weapon. However, he did not expect that Dragon Lord's hidden weapons were so powerful, so the two of them were stuck in mid air.
Xiao Letian gradually understood that ninja arts. The so-called ninja arts were not a secret, it was just a high level trick. Powerful ninjas would take advantage of all kinds of blind spots, such as the corner of a building or the corner of a sun, and flash their bodies continuously, causing one to feel dazzled.
If no one told you that there were ninjas following you, perhaps you wouldn't even be able to find people like Ghastly Shadow after walking for dozens of miles, because they were playing with your eyes. This was an experience that the Ninja community had accumulated for a thousand years.
The Ninja's illusion techniques were fatal for normal warriors, but facing an inner sect expert like Xiang Shaolong, they would be completely helpless. Dragon Lord, who was well-versed in Wu Dang inner force, could lock onto the general direction of the enemy without relying on killing intent.
After fighting for fifteen minutes, two long wounds had appeared on the body of the ninja. Although they were not fatal, the fresh blood was so dark red that they looked shocking.
Just as the Dragon Lord and the Ninja were entangled on the roof, the musket team led by Xiao Hexin and the veterans led by Sima Yun, formed a huge encirclement on the street.
”Mr. Xiao …” The Ninja suddenly opened his mouth and spoke in Chinese with a strange tone, ”I am here to deliver the invitation. I am not an assassin, I am here to deliver the invitation on behalf of Lord Hua Shan …”
”Bullshit!” Dragon Lord shouted, ”Why don't you go through the main entrance with the invitation card, why are you sneaking around on the roof? ”Isn't it because he wants to spy on us? Mister, please don't listen to his nonsense …”
”Wait …” Let him come here! ” Once Xiao Letian heard that he was Huashan Liyuan's messenger, she raised her hand to stop everyone's attack, allowing him to escape.
Under the coercion of the thirty guns, the ninja did not dare to play any tricks and quickly knelt on the ground with both hands offering Huashan Liyuan's handwritten letter.
Japanese intellectuals were well versed in Chinese. In the minds of the true aristocrats, the improved Japanese was specially prepared for the lower level peasants. All of the simplification was only because the peasants were too stupid.
Therefore, although many Japanese intellectuals could not speak Chinese, but as long as they gave him pen and paper, he could easily communicate with the Chinese people.
”Tonight, Huashan Liyuan is going to treat me to Huai Shi Cuisine. This level is really high, I wonder if this is the Hongmen Feast?” After Xiao Letian finished reading the invitation card, he casually handed it over to Shi Dakai.
The Ninja lowered his head even more. ”My lord asks you sincerely, please do not disappoint us …” Xiao Letian thought it was okay, but this ninja had quite the personality. ”Alright, I got it, listen a few more times and you guys can f * cking count it as your greatest respect to me …” ”Go back and tell Huang Xiaolong that I will be there today.”
Looking at the ninja who was covering his wound as he walked further and further away, Xiao Letian sneered and said, ”This is a people that doesn't care about their reputation. If we want them to respect you, then we need to show our power. F * ck, sending the invitation card up to the roof? If I don't teach you a lesson, you would think I'm a sick cat. Dragon Lord, remember, if there are more of these kinds of ninjas, you can personally chop them off for me … ”
Xiao Letian and his group had only been in the Naha Harbor for a day and had already had two consecutive conflicts. On the pier, they gave E Balang and his group a ruthless lesson, and after lunch, they had a match with the Japanese ninja which involved lightness skills and concealed weapons.
Returning back to the room, Shi Dakai asked puzzledly: ”Is there a need for us to make such a big deal out of it? Military Advisor, you came here because you wanted to obtain the identity of a Minister of the Ryukyu Kingdom and also the right to trade.
