"It's them." The man in white said.
"I gave them three days, but I didn't expect them to come back so soon." Matsumoto Takeyoshi smiled and handed the binoculars to a Ninja beside him.
"With his current agility, this is already very slow." The man in white said.
"Let's go in." Matsumoto Takeyoshi said and turned toward the cabin.
The man in white looked up at the two people in the air, then turned around and followed Matsumoto Takeyoshi into the main cabin.
"We're here." In the air, Ye Fan said to Akatsuki.
The implication was that Akatsuki should let go of his arm.
"Um." Akatsuki's face turned red and let go of Ye Fan's arm.
If it weren't for the crystal mask, her face would be similar to the color of the mask, red.
In the blink of an eye, the two figures landed on the deck of the warship.
After landing, the two went directly to Matsumoto Takeyoshi's main cabin.
At this time, the wind was blowing and the waves were surging. In addition to the two of them on the deck, there were only two Ninjas in front of Matsumoto Takeyoshi's cabin door.
Swish! As soon as the two arrived at the door of the main cabin, the two Ninjas pulled out half of their swords.
"Who are you?" One of the Ninjas asked.
The two people in front of them were covered from head to toe, wearing masks, so they couldn't recognize who they were.
Their duty was to protect Matsumoto Takeyoshi, so naturally, they couldn't easily let people in.
Ye Fan reached out and slowly took off the white jade mask, looking at them expressionlessly.
"We're here to see Mr. Matsumoto." Akatsuki said.
"Ye … Mr. Ye, Metsuki-san!" When the two Ninjas saw Ye Fan and Akatsuki, they immediately put their swords back into their scabbards, clasped their arms, and bowed to salute the two people.
Ever since Akatsuki came to the warship, all the ninjas remembered her voice. After all, Akatsuki was wearing a veil.
Needless to say, Ye Fan was even more terrifying than the Grim Reaper in the hearts of ninjas!
Whoosh! After the two Ninjas saluted them, they immediately opened the hatch and invited them in.
Ye Fan placed the white jade mask into his bosom and stepped inside.
Akatsuki followed closely behind.
Huala! The cabin door closed again.
Unlike the scene outside, where the winds were howling and the waves were surging, the main cabin was brightly lit, warm and comfortable, as if it was a completely different world.
"Hahaha, Ye Fan -kun, Miss Yue, I didn't expect you to be back so soon. Come, take a seat. Try the tea I brewed." Matsumoto Takeyoshi, who was sitting at the head of the table, beckoned Ye Fan and Akatsuki over. Beside him was a small exquisite stove with an exquisite iron kettle on it. The flames on the stove danced, and the iron kettle was filled with steam.
The two slowly walked in front of Matsumoto Takeyoshi.
"Greetings, Mr. Matsumoto." Akatsuki bowed to Matsumoto Takeyoshi.
Ye Fan didn't stand on ceremony. He directly sat to Matsumoto Takeyoshi's left, and then took off the hat on his head, revealing his silver hair.
Whoosh! Baihu jumped out of the hat and into Ye Fan's arms.
"No need, no need. Miss Yue, please take a seat." Matsumoto Takeyoshi smiled.
He didn't mind Ye Fan's rudeness. In fact, he was happy to see him do so.
The reason was simple. Ye Fan's actions represented that everything was normal.
If one day Ye Fan suddenly became polite to him, it would prove that something was wrong.
"Yes." Akatsuki said as she sat to Matsumoto Takeyoshi's right, across the table from Ye Fan.
"How was it? Did you complete the mission? "Matsumoto Takeyoshi asked with a smile as he took out three white porcelain cups from the tea tray on the table.
"Yes." Akatsuki nodded and answered.
"Oh? Tell me about it. " Matsumoto Takeyoshi said as he picked up the bamboo tea container, reached out to open it, and then used a bamboo spoon to put tea leaves into the three cups.
"When we got there, we happened to meet a group of Taoists who were setting up the Thousand Ghosts Array." Akatsuki said as she told Matsumoto Takeyoshi what happened at Sishui River that night.
"The Thousand Ghosts were taken away?" Matsumoto Takeyoshi asked with a frown after listening to Akatsuki's report.
"Yes." Akatsuki replied.
"Who was the one who took away the Thousand Ghosts?" Matsumoto Takeyoshi asked again.
"We were above the clouds at that time, so we couldn't hear their conversation." Akatsuki said.
"Ye Fan -kun, did you hear it?" Matsumoto Takeyoshi asked as he turned his head towards Ye Fan.
"I heard it." Ye Fan replied.
"Who was it?" Matsumoto Takeyoshi asked.
"It was someone from the Ten Thousand Immortals Tower." Ye Fan answered truthfully.
Other than the fact that he could not let Matsumoto Takeyoshi know that he had discovered the divine cauldron, there was no need to lie to Matsumoto Takeyoshi about anything else. Then again, he couldn't lie to Matsumoto Takeyoshi. Who knew if there were any of Matsumoto Takeyoshi's men among those Taoists.
If Matsumoto Takeyoshi knew that he was lying to him, it would be difficult to deal with things in the future.
"Ten Thousand Immortals Tower?" Matsumoto Takeyoshi frowned. "Bai Sheng?"
"It's not Bai Sheng." Ye Fan replied. "It's one of his protectors, called Yin Po."
"Yin Yang Protector, Yin Po, Yang Soul." Matsumoto Takeyoshi said with a solemn expression.
Only now did Ye Fan know that there were two protectors under Bai Sheng.
"Which Taoist did Yin Po fight with?" Matsumoto Takeyoshi asked Ye Fan.
"It seems to be a Sect Master, surnamed Lu." Ye Fan deliberately said. "I heard Yin Po call him Sect Master Lu."
"Mao Mountain Sect Master, Lu Yuanshan." Matsumoto Takeyoshi said as he took the iron kettle from the stove and poured water into the three porcelain cups.
The steam rose and the fragrance of the tea filled the air.
"What did you do after the Ten Thousand Ghosts took it away?" Matsumoto Takeyoshi asked without raising his head as he poured the tea.
Ye Fan did not answer. Instead, he directly picked up the teacup and blew on it.
He could not speak now.
There were some things that he could take the initiative to say, and some things that he could not take the initiative to say.
Matsumoto Takeyoshi had to let Akatsuki answer this question first, and then he would act according to the situation.
"After the Ten Thousand Ghosts took it away, we returned to the inn." Akatsuki calmly replied.
"And then?" Matsumoto Takeyoshi put down the kettle and asked casually.
