Chu Yunsheng was lying on the snowy ground on the roof of the building. He blocked all the Ni Yuan body's ability to break down the alcohol and let it burn inside his body.
Opening his eyes, he looked at the falling snowflakes in the sky and laughed. A moment later, he stood up and put on his armor piece by piece. In the snowstorm, he picked up the helmet that had fallen to the side and slowly and solemnly put it on. Under the mask, there was only a pair of cold, persistent eyes that were valiant and forceful.
Lifting the Qian Bi sword, Chu Yunsheng bent his body and jumped down from the twelfth floor of the building. A new character "Teng" appeared on the chest of the third-rank armor, which was shining brightly. Chu Yunsheng's fighting energy was instantly released. He paused in the air for one time, two times, and three times.
After three sluggishness, he folded his body and suddenly sped up, shooting out like a shooting star. Battle of Speed activated!
As if the air was split in half by a knife, it was split into two halves. The wind blew up a cloud of ice and snow, forcing the Japanese people on the street to run away. In just a few seconds, Chu Yunsheng, who was very familiar with the city, appeared downstairs of the Akizuki family's residence.
The crowd in front of the building quickly gathered back and formed a defensive formation. However, no one dared to attack first.
"Stand down!" It was one of the awakened warriors in the building. As soon as he finished speaking, he had already run out of the hall. He was still wearing a red armor.
However, compared to Chu Yunsheng's exquisite armor, his armor was like a shoddy imitation from a village workshop.
"I'm here to keep the appointment!" Chu Yunsheng stopped Qian Bi sword and put both of his hands on the sword hilt.
When the Qiu Yue family sent him something, they invited him to their base for a banquet. He also wanted to ask them about the situation of crossing the sea, so he immediately agreed.
"Esteemed guest, you are too serious. You are an esteemed guest of our banquet, please follow me." Although the man was surprised that Chu Yunsheng had changed his appearance again, he was still using a sharp sword. Moreover, he was the one who spoke Chinese and had such power in the River East region. Who else could it be other than him? He said in half-baked Chinese.
"You can speak Chinese?" Chu Yunsheng slightly crossed his legs, picked up Qian Bi sword and followed the man into the hall.
"I have worked for a Japanese company in your country for many years, and I have learned a little bit." The man replied respectfully. He didn't need the patriarch to tell him that the man in front of him was very powerful. The Japanese had always admired the strong.
"That's good, so you can understand me … Is your master not here?" Chu Yunsheng glanced around the hall and didn't see the master of the Qiu Yue family, so he frowned and said.
"Guest, please wait for a moment, I will go and inform him now." The man still answered respectfully, but he didn't dare to say that Chu Yunsheng came early. Originally, the appointed time was two hours later, but he didn't expect Chu Yunsheng to come so early. The host was still personally directing the banquet arrangements. He just thought that according to the pride of a strong person, it would be good if he was not late. He didn't expect that Chu Yunsheng would come early.
The person who received Chu Yunsheng was still very happy. The earlier Chu Yunsheng came, the more likely it was that he valued the Qiu Yue family. If they had such a powerful master supporting them, then it wouldn't be too difficult for them to survive in Shen Cheng city, right?
Chu Yunsheng put away the armor and looked at the watch he got from Jiang city. However, he didn't really care about it. He just came to ask a few questions. So he nodded his head and signaled the person to leave. Then he sat on a chair in the hall. A waiter hurriedly brought him a cup of boiling water. During the dark age, people in Shen Cheng city used this as a way to keep out the cold.
The news that a peerless master had arrived for the banquet was like a tidal wave that swept across the entire building of the Akizuki family's base. Especially when he suddenly disappeared from the armor, it was even more shocking. It further confirmed the rumor that he was a peerless master. In just a few seconds, almost everyone in the building knew about it. The kitchen suddenly sped up, the waiters were busy preparing the banquet, and Qianye Xun and the other people who were trying to make a very difficult pose were also stopped and asked to change their clothes immediately …
Akizuki Tanenaga straightened his clothes and quickly entered the hall on the first floor. From afar, he gave a slight bow and spoke in fluent Mandarin, "Apologies for my impoliteness. Sorry to keep you waiting!"
Chu Yunsheng put down the cup and stood up, "Mr. Qiu Yue, you're welcome. I'm just here to ask a few questions, I'll leave after that."
Qiu Yue Tanaga was dazed for a second. He didn't know what Chu Yunsheng meant. He had only met Chu Yunsheng once before, and this was the first time that he had a private conversation with Chu Yunsheng. He didn't know Chu Yunsheng's temper at all, so he didn't know where to start. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and said, "please sit down and tell me more."
Chu Yunsheng's sharp senses were able to detect Qiu Yue Tanaga's every move. However, Chu Yunsheng didn't think too much about it. He just wanted to know whether the person was lying or not. He spread out his right hand and took out a tier-one armor that was made from the leftover materials of a tier-three armor and a pile of food that he got from the gourd.
"I don't take things by force, and I don't owe you any favors. You just need to tell me what I want to know, and you can choose one of these two items as the reward!" Chu Yunsheng pointed at the armor and the food and said.
Looking at the armor and the pile of food that appeared out of nowhere, Qiu Yue Tanaga finally believed his subordinate's exaggerated report. Although he was still confused, he was sure that this person's relationship with the western side was not as close as Hao Xu's. It was the first time that he saw a top-level master from the western side acting like this. In fact, he didn't believe what Hao Xu said in the first place.
In fact, he didn't believe Hao Xu's words at all. Not to mention that he was 20 years older than Hao Xu, his years of experience in business was also much better than Hao Xu's. Moreover, the Japanese still had the information about Chu Yunsheng's first appearance. So Akizuki Tanaga had already come to this conclusion a long time ago. Just one day ago, he decided to bet his entire family's fate. Of course, it was not because he wanted to compete with the Chinese people in the west. He clearly knew that the Chinese people in the west had the advantage of having the same root. What he wanted was just to get the biggest support for the Akizuki family to achieve a delicate balance.
"If you have anything to say, please don't hesitate to ask for a reward," Qiu Yue Tanaga waved his hand and said politely. Although the pile of food was not that attractive to him because of the large amount of sea monsters' bodies, the shining armor made his heart skip a beat. In the apocalyptic land, powerful weapons and armors could save a few lives!
"That's a different matter!" Chu Yunsheng saw the man glanced at the armor, so he immediately took back the food and said, "then exchange the armor, and I want to know how you crossed the sea!"
"Crossed the sea?" Qiu Yue Tanaga was confused again. Every word that the person in front of him said made him feel confused. Of course, he knew that it was not because Chu Yunsheng was very smart, it was because he didn't know anything about Chu Yunsheng.
"Yes, crossed the sea. I know the situation in the sea. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for you to cross the sea. I want to know the real reason," Chu Yunsheng said with certainty.
Qiu Yue Tanaga's eyes slightly changed, "My dear guest, can you put away this armor and come upstairs with me? It's a long story, it's not something that can be explained in a few words."
Chu Yunsheng stared at him for a second, then nodded his head and put away the armor.
The dining room on the third floor had already been renovated. There were no extra tables and chairs, only a short table filled with food was placed in the middle of the dining room.
The two of them sat down, but Chu Yunsheng didn't touch any of the food on the table. He was just waiting for the man to speak.
Akizuki Tanenaga smiled bitterly in his mind. He had arranged this meeting according to common sense, but he didn't expect everything to go according to plan. Not only did this person not have any interest in eating, but he also didn't care about the three most outstanding girls of the Akizuki Family that he had specially arranged to serve him. It was as if his mind was completely focused on something else.
"My dear guest, people from the west have also asked you this question many times. What I know, they all know. What they don't know, I also don't know."
"Back then, the Kyushu Island was in chaos. Tens of millions of people fled to the sea. Some of them went to Handu on the peninsula, and some directly fled to Shen City. The people under Qiu Yue's name who had lost their homes and fled to Shen City because I still have some properties here." Qiu Yue Tanaga's eyes dimmed down when he said this. He drank a glass of wine and sighed.
"Millions of people, countless ships, less than ten thousand people escaped to Shen Cheng city! Eight hundred kilometers of the sea, there were bodies floating on the sea. We were at the back, and when we looked back, we couldn't see the end of the bodies, and when we looked forward, we couldn't see the end of the bodies. Fish monsters ate each other, and blood dyed the sea red. Many people were desperate when they saw this, and many of them committed suicide … "
While he was talking, two lines of tears rolled down his face. After a moment of silence, he smiled and said, "I'm old, it's easy for me to think of my dead family members."
"I can understand how you feel, but according to what you said, you just sacrificed a lot of people to get to Shen Cheng city?" Chu Yunsheng shook his head and said.
"Yes, that's true. But I don't know how those people escaped to Han Du city." Qiu Yue Tanaga moved his body away and wiped the tears off his face.
"You mean the Tachibana family?" Although Chu Yunsheng hadn't been here for a long time, he had heard about the most powerful force in the river east more than once.
"I only know that the Tachibana family has something that they call 'God'. Your friends on the west side of the river also know about it. It is not a secret in Shen Cheng city. But I and my people have never seen this thing, and the people who escaped with them also did not see it. I only heard that with this thing, the Tachibana family gathered a large number of top-level warriors, and they were able to get through the sea safely. But no one knows the details, even the west side doesn't know." Although Qiu Yue Tanaga was in favor of peace, he was not a traitor to the Japanese. What he said was known to all the powerful forces in Shen Cheng city. Other than that, he really didn't know anything else. It was the biggest secret of the Tachibana family, and he didn't know much more than other people.
If he had to point out something that he was hiding, it would be the origin of the "God". As the head of the Qiu Yue family, he still knew some rumors. He heard that it was Tachibana Tachibana's grandfather who got it during the second world war. But in order to avoid provoking the Chinese, he didn't dare to say anything about it. Not only him, all the Japanese in the river east who knew about this rumor, no matter if they were in favor of peace or war, they all kept quiet about it.
"This armor is yours now!" Chu Yunsheng took out the tier-1 armor from the storage talisman, stood up and said, "goodbye."
Qiu Yue Tanaga raised his head and said, "are you going to the Tachibana family?"
Chu Yunsheng didn't answer him. He just walked straight downstairs and left the building of the Qiu Yue family's base. The head of the Qiu Yue family was frowning, and the three girls, who were all prepared but didn't even say a word, were left behind.
