When the two returned to the sky above the East China Sea, it was already the next morning.
"Go back to your cabin and have a good rest. I'll talk to Matsumoto Takeyoshi."
Above the clouds, Ye Fan said to Akatsuki, who was holding Baihu and wearing a veil.
Akatsuki bit her lip and nodded.
The decision to separate from Ye Fan was not something she had made on a whim.
She had seen Ye Fan's power with her own eyes after he became a devil.
With his current strength, he did not need anyone's help.
If she followed him, she would only distract him and drag him down.
After all, the gap between their cultivation levels was too big.
Instead of dragging him down, it was better to separate from him and form a partnership with someone else.
In this way, Ye Fan would be completely free to search for the whereabouts of the Nine Cauldrons. On the other hand, she could also provide information for Ye Fan.
"Whoosh!" The two people and one fox disappeared into thin air above the clouds, and then instantly appeared on the deck of the warship.
Akatsuki nodded to Ye Fan, then turned around and walked back to her berth cabin.
Looking at Akatsuki's departing figure, Ye Fan felt a little disappointed.
After watching Akatsuki return to her berth cabin, he turned around and walked toward Matsumoto Takeyoshi's berth cabin.
"Mr. Ye." The two ninjas guarding Matsumoto Takeyoshi's cabin saw Ye Fan coming and immediately bowed to Ye Fan respectfully. At the same time, they quickly slid the cabin door open.
"Yes." Ye Fan responded and stepped in.
Inside the cabin, Matsumoto Takeyoshi, who was wearing a gray robe, was sitting on a futon and looking at the map of the Great Ming Dynasty on the table in front of him with a smile.
He had received news that his only son, Zhou Dao, had led the Great Ming Dynasty's army to attack the troops of the four countries!
The frontal attack of the troops, the sneak attack of the ninjas, Fujita Takeshi's Qimen Dunjia, the formation of the troops, and Sato Kawa's killing spree. At this time, the troops of the four countries, except for the Mongolian army, were all defeated and were retreating!
As the Mongolian army was mainly composed of heavy cavalry, they were very mobile and had the help of the Ye Family's experts. Therefore, Zhou Dao did not have any advantage.
If the situation continued developing, the four countries would definitely regroup and gather their forces to fight!
When the four countries counterattacked, he would directly order Zhou Dao to completely open the border and avoid the battle, allowing the four countries to send a large number of troops into the Great Ming's hinterland!
At that time, the entire Great Ming Dynasty would be slaughtered like fish on a fish fish on a chopping block!
Great Ming's Dynasty was a war was War was War to War Dynasty's Dynasty War Dynasty was War Ming Dynasty's was War Dynasty. War war war, and retake control over the Great Ming Ming's!
As Matsumoto Takeyoshi was thinking, Ye Fan walked in.
Seeing Ye Fan enter the cabin, Matsumoto Takeyoshi looked up and smiled.
"Ye Fan -kun, you came back at the right time. Come, come, come, try the new tea that was just served." Matsumoto Takeyoshi, who was in a good mood, gestured for Ye Fan to sit down and poured a cup of fragrant tea for Ye Fan.
Ye Fan did not stand on ceremony. He shook his black robe and sat directly opposite Matsumoto Takeyoshi. He picked up the fragrant tea and took a sip.
"How is it?" Matsumoto Takeyoshi asked Ye Fan with a smile.
"Good tea." Ye Fan said with a smile, "These tea leaves were picked less than three days ago. Furthermore, they were brewed with the natural dew that condensed on the tea leaves before sunrise. The color is emerald green, and the tea is clear. The fragrance lingers on the lips and teeth. It's rare."
Ye Fan was indeed an expert when it came to the Way of Tea.
As his father, Ye Kong, liked to taste tea, Ye Fan had been influenced by him since he was young. He did not lose out to famous teas. Now that his cultivation had reached the Skyfiend realm, his five senses were so strong that no one could match them. To the current him, it was normal for him to be able to taste tea of this level.
"Hahaha …" Matsumoto Takeyoshi laughed loudly. "I didn't expect Ye Fan -kun to not only have such a high cultivation, but also a tea connoisseur. It's truly admirable."
Ye Fan smiled and did not comment.
"Ye Fan -kun, why are you alone this time? Where's Miss Yue? Why didn't she come? "Matsumoto Takeyoshi drank his fragrant tea and asked Ye Fan.
"It's her business whether she comes or not. It has nothing to do with me." Ye Fan put down his teacup and said calmly.
After hearing Ye Fan's words, Matsumoto Takeyoshi first frowned, then smiled.
"What's the matter? Did the two of you have a fight? "Matsumoto Takeyoshi picked up the teapot and asked as he refilled Ye Fan's tea.
"Miss Yue is efficient and doesn't talk much. She's a very good partner." Ye Fan said, "However, her spiritual power is now exhausted and her cultivation has decreased greatly. Furthermore, she just came back from the dead and her body is weak. If she follows me, it will waste a lot of my time. I still have to spare some energy and time to take care of her. It's really too troublesome."
"Then Ye Fan -kun means …" Matsumoto Takeyoshi looked up at Ye Fan and smiled.
"Mr. Matsumoto, can you let me go alone?" Ye Fan asked Matsumoto Takeyoshi with a smile.
"Well …" Matsumoto Takeyoshi smiled and put down the teapot in his hand.
"Mr. Matsumoto, if you don't trust me, you can assign a faster person to be my partner," Ye Fan said as he leaned forward and stared into Matsumoto Takeyoshi's eyes. "For example, the man in blue, Sato Kawaki."
Matsumoto Takeyoshi had a smile on his face, but he was secretly shocked.
Ye Fan's words had a deeper meaning.
When Ye Fan first joined his camp, he already saw the hatred between Sato Kawaki and Ye Fan.
Even a fool could see that the two of them had fought before and had a grudge against each other.
Among the dozens of masters, Sato Kawaki was indeed one of the best. However, compared to Ye Fan, who was already possessed, it was like heaven and earth!
Not to mention that Sato Kawaki was now at the border, assisting Taro Matsumoto in the frontline battle. Even if he was still in East Sea, he could not let him be Ye Fan's partner.
With Ye Fan's current cultivation, he could instantly kill Sato Kawaki!
He could take Sato Kawaki out in the name of looking for the Nine Tripod Cauldrons, and then find a random place to kill him. After that, he could come back and make up an excuse to get away with it!
Ye Fan said that he wanted to change partners, but in fact, he was hinting that Matsumoto Takeyoshi should agree to his request to go alone. Otherwise, he would kill whoever followed him!
Among the dozens of masters, other than Akatsuki, Bamu Changqing, and Onigirō, he would not show mercy to anyone!
Bamu Changqing and Onigirō were currently on a mission outside. Even if the two of them were in East Sea, Matsumoto Takeyoshi would never assign the two of them to be Ye Fan's partner.
Bamu Changqing was the leader of the Japanese Shinobi World, He Ryu. He was a righteous person who did not smile. His swordsmanship was unparalleled, and his ninjutsu was superb. On the other hand, Onigirō was extremely intelligent, and he was good at scheming. He was good at Ghost Force and Yin Arts.
The two of them had a close relationship with Ye Fan, and they shared the same interests. If they were allowed to partner with Ye Fan, Ye Fan would be like a tiger that had grown wings. If things went wrong, they might even team up to deal with him!
The most suitable person to partner with Ye Fan was Akatsuki!
"How about it? Mr. Matsumoto? "Ye Fan asked Matsumoto Takeyoshi with a smile as he drank his tea." Who wants to partner with me? "
"Ye Fan -kun, what are you talking about?" Matsumoto Takeyoshi said with a smile. "Since Miss Yue is not feeling well now, let her stay on the ship to recuperate. Before Miss Yue recovers, Ye Fan -kun can act alone. After Miss Yue fully recovers, the two of you can go out to carry out missions together. What do you think, Ye Fan -kun? "
Instead of losing combat power, it was better to do Ye Fan a favor.
Matsumoto Takeyoshi would not do a losing deal.
"Mr. Matsumoto, you trust me that much?" Ye Fan asked Matsumoto Takeyoshi with a smile.
"Ye Fan -kun is loyal and devoted. Why would I not be at ease?" Matsumoto Takeyoshi said with a smile.
He was reminding Ye Fan that he still had Fujiwara No Chiko's two true souls in his hands. He was warning him not to act recklessly.
Ye Fan naturally understood Matsumoto Takeyoshi's hint.
The two of them had a tacit understanding and smiled at each other.
"In that case, I'll thank Mr. Matsumoto." As Ye Fan said that, he picked up the fragrant tea on the table and drank it in one gulp. Then, he put down the teacup and disappeared into thin air with a smile!
After Ye Fan disappeared, Matsumoto Takeyoshi's smile gradually disappeared and his face sank.
In today's round, he had let Ye Fan gain the upper hand.
"Do you want me to follow him?" Behind Matsumoto Takeyoshi, a man in white with a veil on his face asked Matsumoto Takeyoshi.
"No need." Matsumoto Takeyoshi said, "Fujiwara No Chiko's two true souls are still in our hands. Everything is still under our control."
The man in white nodded.
"How is Kazuken Sato's sword forging coming along?" Matsumoto Takeyoshi quietly sipped his tea and asked.
"Everything is going well." The man in white replied, "Three hundred swordsmiths are working day and night. At most, the forging will be completed in three months."
"After it's done, remember not to leak any information." Matsumoto Takeyoshi put down his teacup and said calmly.
"Mr. Matsumoto, don't worry. After it's done, no one will be left alive." The man in white replied slowly …
A day passed quickly.
In the blink of an eye, the sun had set and the lanterns were lit.
In the cabin, the black-robed Ye Fan was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed in concentration.
Baihu was lying quietly on a futon beside him, quietly warming herself by the fire.
Buzz … Following a soft green light emerging from Ye Fan's body, a black-robed Ye Fan with fluttering silver hair slowly flew out from the green light!
In the blink of an eye, two Ye Fan appeared in the cabin!
The two Ye Fan were exactly the same! One was sitting cross-legged while the other was floating in the air!
Ye Fan's primordial spirit had already left his body!
Baihu was still lying there quietly with her eyes closed, motionless.
At this moment, she couldn't see Ye Fan's primordial spirit at all. She had no idea what was happening in front of her.
She even thought that Ye Fan was sitting cross-legged and cultivating.
The slowly flying Ye Fan lowered his head to look at his own body, then looked at the completely unaware Baihu. He smiled slightly and instantly disappeared!
Whoosh … A green light streaked across the sky like a shooting star, flying toward the Heavenly Lake at the speed of light!
In the cabin of the battleship, the man in white who was also sitting cross-legged suddenly opened his eyes!
He felt a powerful spiritual pressure erupt and then disappear in an instant!
The spiritual power emitted by this spiritual pressure was so strong that he had never seen it before!
It was very obvious that apart from Ye Fan who had already entered the demonic path, no one else here could release such a powerful spiritual pressure!
Sitting cross-legged, he circulated the spiritual power in his body and sensed Ye Fan's movements in the cabin.
When he sensed Ye Fan's slow breathing and Baihu's aura, the man in white relaxed.
Ye Fan was still in the cabin.
