It had been raining for a day and a night, and Ye Fan had been guarding the place for a day and a night.
On the evening of the second day, the drizzle finally stopped.
Ye Fan raised his head to look at the sky and frowned slightly.
It had been a day and a night, and he still hadn't heard any movement from the shadow ninja.
On the other side of Heaven Lake, Sato Kawa Kai and Fujita Takeshi's presence was still the same.
Ye Fan, who had been waiting for a day and a night, was a little puzzled.
With the shadow ninja's well-trained movements, they should have arrived by now. Why was there no movement?
He stood up from the green stone and walked slowly to the edge of the cliff. He put his hands behind his back and looked toward Heaven Lake.
A faint orange-red light came faintly from the direction of the Heaven Lake, which was a hundred miles away.
Ye Fan knew that it was the bonfire that Sato Kawa Kai and Fujita Takeshi had lit to warm themselves up.
They had been guarding Heaven Lake for almost half a month.
Fujita Takeshi didn't agree to light a bonfire at first. After all, they didn't want to arouse suspicion and suspicion from others.
However, Sato Kawa Kai couldn't stand it anymore.
Heaven Lake was a huge lake. The water vapor was dense, and it had been raining for a day and a night. It made his body damp, and it was very uncomfortable.
He didn't listen to Fujita Takeshi's advice and lit a large bonfire. He drank and roasted his blue robe.
Fujita Takeshi saw that the shadow ninja was about to arrive, so he let him be.
The two sat around the bonfire and rubbed their hands to get rid of the dampness on their bodies.
"Fujita Bro, have a sip." Sato Kawa Kai handed the wine in his hand to Fujita Takeshi and said.
Fujita Takeshi took the wine from Sato Kawa Kai and took a big gulp.
After more than ten days of guarding, he was starting to feel bored.
"Fujita Bro, what do you think Mr. Matsumoto will give us? He won't ask us to keep guarding here, right? "Sato Kawa Kai asked Fujita Takeshi while adding firewood to the bonfire.
"I don't know." Fujita Takeshi shook his head and said to Sato Kawa Kai while drinking.
"If we keep this up, I'm going to go crazy," Kaz Sato said to Takeshi Fujita.
"Don't worry. Even if we continue to stay here, Mr. Matsumoto will send someone to replace us," Fujita Takeshi said.
"I hope so," Akane Sato said.
A hundred miles away, Ye Fan quietly listened to the conversation between the two. He was also guessing Matsumoto Takeyoshi's new order.
Swish swish swish …
A few sounds of movement caused by the movement of the martial arts reached Ye Fan's ears from a direction that was dozens of miles away from him.
The newcomer's footsteps were light and nimble. His footsteps were like the wind, which was completely different from the Body Movements of the Central Plains.
It was the Shadow Ninja!
Ye Fan's heart skipped a beat.
Shua! After confirming that the person was the Shadow Ninja, Ye Fan's figure flashed and disappeared into thin air.
Shua! A moment later, Ye Fan appeared high up in the sky, stepping on the Auspicious Clouds.
He squinted his eyes, focused his vision, and looked in the direction of the sound.
He saw that in the dense forest below, two shadows were shuttling back and forth in the forest at an extremely fast speed.
The two of them were wearing black night clothes, their faces were covered with black veils, and their heads were wrapped with black scarves. They carried a katana on their back and displayed the unique agility of the ninjas as they rushed toward the direction of Heaven Lake in the distance.
It seemed that the two of them were the Shadow Ninjas sent by Matsumoto Takeyoshi.
Ye Fan thought as he raised his body and urged the Auspicious Clouds under his feet to slowly float toward Heaven Lake.
He dared not urge the Auspicious Clouds too quickly. Otherwise, Fujita Takeshi and Sato Kawa Kai would notice something.
Ye Fan kept the Auspicious Clouds under his feet at the same speed as the other clouds in the sky. In a short while, he arrived above Heaven Lake.
He fixed the Auspicious Clouds under his feet in the air and waited quietly for the arrival of the Shadow Ninjas.
After about ten minutes, Fujita Takeshi, who was sitting around the fire, tilted his head and listened carefully.
"What's wrong?" Sato Kawa Kai, who was sitting opposite Fujita Takeshi and slightly drunk, asked.
"The Shadow Ninjas are here." Fujita Takeshi turned his head and smiled at Sato Kawa Kai.
"They're here? Wow. "Sato Kawa Kai's face lit up with joy.
He stood up from the ground excitedly, shaded his eyes with his hand, and looked around.
The mountains were high and the forest was dense. He could not see any trace of the Shadow Ninjas at all.
"Where are they?" Sato Kawa Kai frowned and asked Fujita Takeshi.
"Fifty miles away. They're on their way here. They'll be here soon." Fujita Takeshi said as he smiled and drank.
Fujita Takeshi's words made Ye Fan, who was on the Auspicious Clouds, frown.
This person's hearing was amazing. He could distinguish the speed and location of the Shadow Ninjas from fifty miles away.
If his hearing was so sharp, wouldn't his eyesight be even better?
It seemed that he had to pay special attention to this person in the future.
Ye Fan thought to himself.
"Brother Fujita's five senses are amazing. It's an eye-opener." Sato Kawa Kai continued to look at the forest as he said to Fujita Takeshi.
"Brother Sato, I'm sorry." Fujita Takeshi stood up and came to Sato Kawa Kai's side.
"I hope they're here to transfer us back." Sato Kawa Kai said to Fujita Takeshi.
"We'll find out what the order is soon. Brother Sato, why are you in such a hurry? "Fujita Takeshi smiled.
"The next time we encounter a mission like this, I'll ask Mr. Matsumoto to transfer us. It's too boring. I'd rather go to the Southwest Desert." Sato Kawa Kai said.
Fujita Takeshi smiled and did not say anything.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh …
After a while, two figures rushed out of the forest and landed in front of the two.
"Greetings, Mr. Fujita and Mr. Sato." Two shadow ninjas wearing night suits came in front of the two of them and knelt down on one knee, bowed their head and said.
"Why are you so late?" Sato Kawa Kai asked.
"In response to Mr. Sato's question, the two of us encountered a storm on the sea, so we arrived a few hours late," one of the shadow figures replied.
Sato Kawa Kai turned his head and looked at Fujita Takeshi. Fujita Takeshi nodded at him.
"Did you see the Lord?" Sato Kawa Kai asked.
"Yes." The Shadow Ninja replied.
"What did the Lord say?" Sato Kawa Kai asked.
He was anxious to know if Matsumoto Takeyoshi's latest order was to stay here.
The Shadow Ninja took out a wax ball and handed it to Sato Kawa Kai with both hands.
Sato Kawa Kai took the wax ball and broke it with two fingers. He took out a note from it.
After seeing the handwriting on the note, Sato Kawa Kai's face showed a rare smile.
He handed the note to Fujita Takeshi, and Fujita Takeshi took it.
"You two have worked hard. Go back and rest." After reading the note, Fujita Takeshi said to the two Shadow Ninjas.
"Yes, we will take our leave." The two Shadow Ninjas replied in unison.
After that, they turned around and disappeared into the dense forest.
"We can finally go back this time," Sato Kawa Kai said to Fujita Takeshi with a smile. "We don't have to stay in this godforsaken place anymore."
"Since Mr. Matsumoto asked us to set up the enchantment, let's do it while it's dark. After that, we will leave immediately and return to East Blue." Fujita Takeshi pinched two fingers as he spoke.
Boom! The note between his fingers instantly combusted.
Enchantment? Ye Fan, who was above the Auspicious Clouds, was puzzled when he heard Fujita Takeshi's words.
The Divine Cauldron itself had a powerful enchantment. Why did Matsumoto Takeyoshi not find a way to break the enchantment of the Divine Cauldron?
"Do you want to go first, or should I?" Fujita Takeshi asked Sato Kawa Kai on the ground.
"I'll go first." Sato Kawa Kai smiled. "It's been so many days. It's time to exercise."
Fujita Takeshi smiled and did not speak.
Whoosh! Sato Kawa Kai used his movement skill and instantly disappeared from the spot!
Whoosh! In the blink of an eye, his body reappeared in mid-air, dozens of feet above the ground!
At this time, he was no longer drunk. His face was calm and expressionless.
Fujita Takeshi narrowed his eyes and watched with interest as Sato Kawa Kai set up the enchantment.
Although these masters had heard rumors about each other, they had never seen each other in action.
This time, taking advantage of the opportunity to work for Matsumoto Takeyoshi, he wanted to carefully observe each other's moves.
No one could guarantee that the two of them would not become opponents in the future.
Clap … clap … clap …
Sato Kawa Kai, who had a katana at his waist in mid-air, clapped his palms together five times!
Whoosh … whoosh … whoosh …
As Sato Kawa Kai clapped his palms five times, five blue arcs of light burst out from his palms instantly!
The five blue arcs of light fell at high speed and formed a huge blue 'fire' character in the air. It whizzed toward the Heavenly Lake below!
Whoosh … The huge blue 'fire' character instantly rushed into the blue water of the Heavenly Lake.
Whoosh … A blue circle of light spread out on the surface of the lake and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Ghost Fire Seal?" Fujita Takeshi, who was on the ground, frowned slightly.
He did not expect Sato Kawa Kai to not only be a master of swordsmanship, but also a master of sealing. He could use ghost fire to seal the Heavenly Lake that was filled with water vapor!
Fire and water had always been incompatible. However, Sato Kawa Kai's will-o '-the-wisp was different. The will-o' -the-wisp was Yin while the fire was Yang. His will-o '-the-wisp had reached the level where both Yin and Yang were present. Ordinary water had no effect on it!
Above the Auspicious Clouds, Ye Fan, who was under the mask, frowned and looked serious.
The cultivation of the man in blue had greatly improved compared to when he was in the cave!
It seemed that the man in blue had improved a lot since he was defeated by the other him in his body. Otherwise, he would not have improved so quickly.
"I'm done. It's your turn now, Brother Fujita." The man in blue slowly descended from the sky and smiled at Fujita Takeshi.
"Brother Sato, you really don't show off," Fujita Takeshi said as he looked at Sato Kawa Kai, who was slowly descending.
"I've embarrassed myself in front of you, Brother Fujita." Sato Kawa Kai's face returned to its previous drunken state.
Fujita Takeshi smiled and bent down to pick up a handful of soil from the ground. He closed his eyes and murmured to himself.
