Chapter 183 - No Way There could be such a Powerful Fighter in Min Province (2/2)
A man who wore a golden robe walked into an abandoned factory. He took off the oni mask on his face and revealed himself to be a man in his middle age.
Kojima Hideo sat down and began to count his loot picked off of Huaxia throughout his time there.
“Huaxia really is some special place for cultivation indeed. I never thought I’d be able to bag this many goodies just taking out several lesser sects.”
If there were to be any cultivators from Japan, they would have been able to recognize him instantly. That middle-aged man was a very renowned figure among the Japanese cultivators, after all.
He was a very renowned onmyoji in the Kanto region of Japan.
He came to Huaxia and destroyed several lesser sects in secret and taken a considerable amount of loot with him, more than enough for him to further his cultivation.
Being able to move around and do whatever he pleased was the very reason why he joined the Amaterasu-gumi in the first place.
No one would have gotten rich without getting their hands dirty after all.
He had to consider his reputation and effects he would have wrought if he were to do so in Japan, which would have prevented him from going all out. In Huaxia, however, there was no need for him to consider such things.
Taking out lesser sects in Huaxia and boosting themselves using resources of Huaxia, was how all the countries around Huaxia was doing it after all.
He knew that there were even fighters from the states and Europe coming all the way to Huaxia just to do so.
His phone rang at that moment. A video popped open, and there was yet another figure wearing a golden robe seen on the other end.
“We’ve bagged quite a lot of loot this time in Huaxia. My investigations say that there is a sect that is deemed the strongest in the north. It’s called the Seven Invincible Sect. There is hardly any fighter of caliber worth mentioning in their ranks, but they have considerable resources in the midst. We would have a lot to gain by taking out that Seven Invincible Sect. Well, I’d need you to arrange a ship for me to get all those resources back to Japan, chief,” Kojima Hideo elaborated.
“Tengu, leave Min Province at once!” the man from the other end of the video call said.
“Why?” Kojima Hideo asked. “Tengu” was his call sign, taken after a god in the Japanese pantheon.
“Onmoraki is dead!” the guy from the other end of the video said.
“We are receiving no signs of life from him on our end. If we were right, he was probably killed already.”
Kojima Hideo was very shocked right away. He knew that “Onmoraki” referred to the other Japanese fighter who he came to Huaxia with on that trip.
They laid out a trap to take on Yin Hu from Huaxia on that trip. He was responsible for taking on any who would back Yin Hu up, while Onmoraki was responsible for killing Yin Hu.
He did not doubt the words of the man from the other end one bit, because the golden robes they wore were not some common clothing, to begin with. The golden robes were made using advanced methods, which would transmit their life signs and locations back to Japan at any given moment.
There could only be one reason why a life sign was lost in this case—the man wearing the robe was dead.
“How could this be? Yin Hu was already poisoned, and there shouldn’t be anybody in all of Min Province capable of taking on Onmoraki!”
Kojima Hideo found that utterly unbelievable.
“I found that unbelievable as well, but according to what we have on our hands, there shouldn’t be someone that powerful in Min Province. Even that Dragon you guys were to run into the Dragon in Huaxia, or Chen Long from the Dragon Soul, you both should have been able to escape unscathed.”
The man on the other end felt very puzzled as well.
“One way or another, get out of there as soon as possible.”
Kojima Hideo paused and said, “I don’t believe there is such a powerful fighter here in Min Province. There was only one possibility why Onmoraki is dead—he was killed by Yin Hu when the latter retaliated before dying.”
He did not believe one bit that such a fighter would have emerged in Min Province all of a sudden. He stood up after he said that and looked outside the gates of the warehouse.
He had no idea since when there had been two figures standing there.
