In the retro room, the tatami mats were spotless, a composite bow hung on the wall, and sake and sashimi were placed on the table. Li Xianyu and the head of the Aoki family sat opposite each other. In the background, there was a katana on the rack.
"Why is Li-kun in Japan?" The head of the Aoki family was a skinny middle-aged man who spoke fluent Chinese. He sat on his knees with his hands on his thighs.
He was like an ordinary person, without the slightest bit of sharpness. His strong body was also hidden by the loose kimono. If Li Xianyu wasn't already halfway to the extreme, he wouldn't have been able to tell that he was a blood descendant.
He was a powerful ninja who had hidden almost all of his aura. At least, it would be difficult for someone of the same level to detect his aura.
Li Xianyu judged that the concealment skill was very high.
Li Xianyu also sat on his knees. This sitting posture in Japan originated from China. It wasn't good because if Daisuke Aoki sat on a higher position, it would seem like he was kneeling to him.
Li Xianyu's attention was on the sake in his cup. He took a sip and then another before praising, "Not bad."
According to his personality, he would pat the head of the Aoki family on the shoulder and say, "Brother, the sake of the Nin family is really good. Bring me a few jars home."
But he was now Li Peiyun. Li Peiyun's persona was cold. He didn't like to socialize and didn't like to smile. On the surface, he was very serious.
"As long as Li-kun likes it." The head of the Aoki family revealed a satisfied smile. As a large family with hundreds of years of history, he wouldn't brag like some nouveau riche that the sake was brewed by an advanced winemaker and couldn't be bought outside. It was pure sake, completely different from those mixed with edible alcohol.
In Japan, the national culture was filled with the shadow of Chinese culture. Sake was developed using Chinese yellow wine as a reference, but there was a huge difference in treatment between the two. The former became the national liquor of Japan, while the latter was still a peasant liquor that couldn't be shown in public.
"If Li-kun likes it, you can bring some back to Europe." The door opened, and Yui Aoki in a kimono with her hair tied up high came in.
"Jieyi, come and accompany Li Jun." The Green Wood Clan Master waved his hand.
Kurumi Aoki slowly knelt down. Like an ancient Daegan, she slowly moved over.
Li Xianyu looked at her head that was slightly lowered, and a few strands of hair fell down her temples. Her fair face was exquisite and beautiful, and even though it was a beautiful and refined oval face, it exuded an enchanting charm.
After not seeing her for a few months, her Charm Esper Ability had become even more refined, and her charm was radiating everywhere. She no longer needed to deliberately make a seductive gesture to capture a man's heart.
The men of the Aoki family were completely immune to their family's charm ability. Daisuke Aoki carefully observed Li Xianyu's expression. Seeing that he was slightly stunned, Master Aoki smiled and raised his glass to drink.
Even China's famous Demon Dao's successor could not resist the charm of the Mu family's pearl.
Although Kurumi Aoki was not from his bloodline, she was still considered a direct descendant. She had a high status in the Aoki family, and because of her natural beauty, she was the most valued seed of the Aoki family.
The Aoki family had always kept her at home, waiting for the right price. Although there were many top S-class youths and adults in Japan, none of them were particularly outstanding. There were almost none like Li Peiyun, Jiese, Dan Chenzi, and Li Xianyu, who could reach halfway to Ji Dao.
And those who were already halfway to Ji Dao were already quite old. That was why the pearl of the Aoki family had never found a suitable partner.
In the second half of the year, something even worse happened. The despicable descendant of the Li family humiliated Kurumi in public, damaging her reputation and causing her value to plummet.
After a secret discussion among the higher-ups of the Aoki family, they felt that Kurumi Aoki's partner did not have to be a Japanese. It could be from Europe, America, or even China. Europe and America were more open, so they did not care about the rumors on the internet.
As for China, wasn't Li Peiyun an excellent candidate for a rich husband? He was the successor of Demon Dao, was proficient in the Three Talents Sword Arts, and had high cultivation and talent. He had the potential to reach halfway to Ji Dao.
Moreover, for some reason, Master Aoki had a good impression of Li Peiyun. The more he looked at him, the more he liked him.
He was truly a charming young man.
"Did you come to visit the Aoki family for me?" Kurumi Aoki poured a glass of wine and revealed a reserved smile, but her words were provocative.
"I didn't come for you." Li Xianyu remembered Xiu Er's character and said lightly, "Master Aoki, is there a person called Aoki Dragon Temple in your family?"
Aoki Daisuke was surprised that Li Peiyun knew Aoki Dragon Temple. He nodded and said, "He is my nephew and also Kurumi's cousin."
"Then do you know that the Ten Thousand Goblins Association has recently put out a bounty for the Ten Thousand Goblins Association?" Li Xianyu asked again.
"I know, but I don't know why." The Ten Thousand Goblins Association and the government were fighting openly and covertly, so it was normal for them to gather information about each other. Aoki Daisuke picked up a piece of tuna sashimi and chewed it slowly. "I understand now. Did you come for this?"
Li Xianyu said, "When I was the leader of the Ancient God Association in China, Hu Yan was my subordinate. Later on, the War God died and the Ancient God Association was completely destroyed. He joined the Ten Thousand Goblins Association and I left for Europe."
Aoki Daisuke looked at Aoki Kurumi. The latter used the action of flicking her hair and nodded slightly.
"This time, the Ten Thousand Goblins Association is targeting the Ten Thousand Goblins Association for some reason. Hu Yan couldn't contact the headquarters of the Ten Thousand Goblins Association, so he could only call me and ask for help." Li Xianyu's expression was solemn and cold.
Aoki Daisuke couldn't help but recall what Li Zhu and Li Peiyun did at the Dao Discussion Assembly. Although this young man was cold and unsociable, he was the same as his old grandfather. He was a person who valued friendship.
"But what has this got to do with the Aoki Dragon Temple?" Aoki Family Head asked. Li Peiyun wouldn't mention the Aoki Dragon Temple for no reason. It was highly possible that he came to visit the Aoki Family.
"When I arrived at Narita Machine Tide, Hu Yan was being chased by the members of the Tengu Society, so I captured them all. After interrogating them, I found out that the members of the Tengu Society wanted to join the Ten Thousand Goblins Association, so they accepted the mission. And among the members of the Tengu Society, there was one whose real name was Aoki Dragon Temple. "Li Xianyu said.
Aoki Yui and Aoki Daisuke's expression changed.
"I also know that the Aoki Family belongs to the government organization, but the Aoki Dragon Temple wanted to join the Ten Thousand Goblins Association. Could it be that the Aoki Family instructed it? "Li Xianyu implied that the Aoki Family was the traitor of the government organization. Or perhaps they were betting on both sides.
Aoki Daisuke suppressed his shock and anger and said with a solemn expression: "Li-kun, you misunderstand. The Aoki Family knows nothing about this. Furthermore, how can you prove it? "
The Tengu Society was a secretive assassination organization. The members only had codenames and no one knew their real identity. The Aoki Family knew nothing about the Aoki Dragon Temple joining the Tengu Society.
But the crucial point was that the Tengu Society wanted to join the Ten Thousand Goblins Association. Everyone knew that the Aoki Family and the government organization were on the same side. If outsiders knew that the Aoki Family's top S-class organization, the Aoki Dragon Temple, had secretly joined the Ten Thousand Goblins Association, not only would the Aoki Family be cursed, they would also be suspected by the government organization and even viewed as enemies.
Li Xianyu clapped his hands. The Tengu who had been waiting outside the door respectfully said "Hi." Then, he pushed open the door and knelt at the door. He did not come in.
"I am the leader of the Tengu Society. My name is Tengu. My lowly name is not worth mentioning." The Tengu did not say his real name. It was not because his real name was taboo, but because he had been roaming the Blood Descendant World until now. He had always used the title Tengu and not his real name.
His real name was not important.
Aoki Yui looked at him in surprise. When she came in and saw this man kneeling at the door, she thought he was Li Peiyun's follower.
"You …" Aoki Daisuke was surprised. "Three years ago, the Kobayashi family head was …"
Unexpectedly, the Tengu interrupted him and said with an expression that said, "We both speak Japanese, don't try to fool me." "The Kobayashi family head's death has nothing to do with me. But five years ago, I killed the Yagyuu family head. However, the employer cannot say that this is the professional ethics of an assassin. "
Aoki Daisuke was even more shocked. He held the wine glass in silence.
The assassination of the Kobayashi family head was initially suspected to be the work of the Tengu, but after a strict investigation by the government organization, it was discovered that the assassin was a mercenary from Europe. As for the Yagyuu family head, he died five years ago. The killer was initially not suspected, but after a thorough investigation, it was confirmed to be the Tengu.
These were all classified cases of the government organization. Even a top S-class would not know of these matters without the corresponding position and authority.
Before Aoki Daisuke even started probing, the other party had already confessed.
The Tengu said, "The Aoki Dragon Temple is indeed a member of my organization. We have decided to capture the two guardians of the Ten Thousand Goblin Alliance as proof of allegiance and join the Ten Thousand Goblin Society."
Aoki Daisuke cursed angrily, "Baka."
There was actually such a traitor in the family. In fact, there were many clansmen who secretly worked for other factions. Every family had such people, but they were basically the branch families that were not valued. If the Aoki Dragon Temple was just a nameless member of the family, it would not be a problem.
But he was a top S-class. Although he had only stepped into the ranks of the top S-class in recent years, his talent was already quite good. He was a member of the younger generation that the family valued.
Aoki Daisuke could not understand why he would be a traitor when the family did not mistreat the Aoki Dragon Temple.
"I heard that the Ten Thousand Goblin Society and the government organization are at loggerheads. They want to fight for supremacy in the Central Plains?" Li Xianyu said.
"Yes." Aoki Daisuke nodded his head and gave his affirmation. Since Pei Yun had subdued the Tengu, she naturally knew the current situation in Japan.
"I heard that because the government organization lost Kusanagi Ken, the Ten Thousand Goblin Society felt that their biggest threat had been eliminated. So, they began to show their ambition and plan to wrestle with the government organization." Li Xianyu asked, pretending to be casual.
"The Ten Thousand Goblin Society has always been ambitious. They were only temporarily suppressed by the government organization. Just like your China, the big families have been fighting with Bosch a lot." Aoki Daisuke picked up a piece of sashimi and stared at the tender red meat on his chopsticks, "The cake is only so big. Whoever has one can enjoy it alone. As for us, the cake is ours. We will not allow others to take it away. "
Li Xianyu frowned. Aoki Daisuke did not directly answer about Kusanagi Ken.
He faintly felt that Aoki Daisuke was quite afraid of Kusanagi Ken and would not easily talk to him.
So, that ancient demon was on the government organization's side? If that was the case, wouldn't the Ten Thousand Goblin Society be completely defeated? No, he would not sit and watch the Ten Thousand Goblin Society grow stronger.
"Although the Ten Thousand Goblin Society has a lot of power in Japan, isn't your backer the Americans? You can try asking for help from the Superpower Association. "Li Xianyu tried to probe.
"No, this is our Japanese Bloodline World's own business," Aoki Daisuke answered subconsciously.
While the two were talking, Kurumi Aoki had been secretly observing Li Xianyu, glancing at him from time to time.
After chatting for a while, Kurumi Aoki suddenly said, "Li-kun, I have been lingering in the top S-class for a long time and have been unable to make any progress. I see that your aura is much stronger than before, so I would like to challenge you. I hope you can teach me a lesson. "
Aoki Daisuke's eyes lit up and looked at Kurumi Aoki with admiration.
He was very curious about Li Peiyun's strength. He must be at the top of the top S-class. Otherwise, how could he have subdued Tengu? However, because he had never met Li Peiyun before, Aoki Daisuke was not sure. He was happy to let Kurumi Aoki test him.
Li Xianyu furrowed his brows imperceptibly. Did this woman sense something?
