In the blink of an eye, it was night time.
The violent sea breeze howled for an entire day and only gradually stopped after sunset.
At this moment, the surface of the East Sea was calm and sparkling. It was no longer as violent as it was during the day.
Ye Fan and Akatsuki sat across from each other in the sleeping cabin. They chatted softly as they drank tea.
In the corner of the sleeping cabin, the charcoal fire in the exquisite and quaint stove was burning brightly. The flames burned brightly and warmed the entire sleeping cabin.
The white fox was lying beside the stove, comfortably taking a nap.
During the day, the small boat was swayed by the sea breeze. As a fox, it was dizzy from the violent swaying of the small boat and couldn't rest at all. Now that the sea was calm, it was exhausted and fell asleep early.
"What? The two of you are fighting on purpose for Matsumoto Takeyoshi to see? "Akatsuki, who had taken off her veil, asked in shock.
"That's right." Ye Fan slowly picked up the teapot on the wooden table and poured tea for Akatsuki as he said calmly, "As for his arrival, I already knew in advance."
"What … What's going on?" Akatsuki asked Ye Fan.
Ye Fan smiled and put down the teapot. He told Akatsuki about his encounter with Chi Yao on the Cloud Path.
When she heard Chi Yao's request to Ye Fan, Akatsuki was shocked and her expression changed drastically!
"This Chi Yao has a huge appetite. He actually wants the Three Great Divine Weapons of Japan?" Akatsuki exclaimed.
Ye Fan nodded.
"If that's the case, does Matsumoto Takeyoshi really have the Three Great Divine Weapons?" Akatsuki muttered to herself.
"As far as I know, one of the Three Great Divine Weapons, the Sword of Kusanagi, is in Matsumoto Takeyoshi's hands. As for the other two, I don't know." Ye Fan took a sip of tea and said.
He got this news from his Brother Kim on the day of his wedding with Fujiwara No Chiko, so it should be true.
He didn't know what kind of weapon the Sword of Kusanagi was and how powerful it was. However, from his Brother Kim's tone, it should be powerful. As for the other two Divine Weapons, the Mirror of Yata and Yasaka Jade, he didn't know anything.
"The Sword of Kusanagi is in Matsumoto Takeyoshi's hands?" Yuuki Hongji frowned.
"Why? Is this sword very powerful? "Ye Fan looked up at Akatsuki and asked.
"This sword's original name is' Kusanagi Sword. 'It was a Divine Weapon that the ancient Japanese god Susanoo obtained from the body of the demon god Yamata no Orochi. It's so powerful that even the Sword of Totsuka couldn't match it." Akatsuki explained to Ye Fan with a frown. "Later on, I heard that this sword hid in the sea and disappeared. I didn't expect Matsumoto Takeyoshi to obtain this sword."
Ye Fan frowned after hearing this.
After hearing what Akatsuki said, this Sword of Kusanagi was indeed extraordinary. If he were to encounter it in the future, he must not underestimate it.
"That Chi Yao really doesn't want to live anymore. He even wants Matsumoto Takeyoshi's things." Akatsuki opened her red lips slightly, took a sip of tea, and said with a serious face.
"Whether he wants Matsumoto Takeyoshi or not is his business. It has nothing to do with me. As long as it's beneficial for me to find the cauldron, it's up to him." Ye Fan said calmly.
"But didn't you agree to help him?" Akatsuki asked Ye Fan.
"I only agreed to help him find out the whereabouts of the three Divine Weapons. As for how he obtained the three Divine Weapons and his motive, I'm not interested." Ye Fan said.
"Do you really believe that he will help you find out the whereabouts of the cauldron?" Akatsuki asked.
"It doesn't matter if he sincerely helps me. What's important is that he can divert Matsumoto Takeyoshi's attention." Ye Fan said to Akatsuki with a smile. "Matsumoto Takeyoshi is an old fox. He definitely won't easily believe him. This way, the water will be muddied, and we will have an easier time."
"Since Matsumoto Takeyoshi has doubts about his loyalty, why did he bring him into the camp?" Akatsuki asked.
"It's very simple. It's to divert me." Ye Fan said.
"Divert you?" Akatsuki asked again.
"That's right." Ye Fan put down the hot tea in his hand and looked at Akatsuki. "Although Matsumoto Takeyoshi is cautious about Chi Yao joining us, he has no doubts about the hatred between the two of us. Therefore, he doesn't have to worry about the two of us working together. This is also the main reason why he dared to take Chi Yao in."
"No wonder Matsumoto Takeyoshi signaled Yamada Shingo not to stop the two of you when the two of you were fighting today. It turns out that he was spying on whether the two of you were acting." Akatsuki said with a sudden realization.
"That old fox is very shrewd. Of course, he wants to test how deep the hatred between the two of us is. He can also use this opportunity to test the quality of Chi Yao." Ye Fan said with a smile.
"Today, if you didn't tell me that the two of you were acting, even I would have been fooled by the two of you." Akatsuki said with a smile, "If I knew this would happen, I wouldn't have intervened."
"Your slash can be said to be a stroke of genius. It was just right." Ye Fan said with a smile, "If you didn't intervene, the two of us wouldn't know how far the two of us would have gone."
"It seems that Chi Yao has now turned from an enemy to a friend." Akatsuki said.
"Both an enemy and a friend." Ye Fan said with a smile.
"Both an enemy and a friend?" Akatsuki asked in confusion, "Then what the two of you said in front of Matsumoto Takeyoshi …"
"Both true and false." Ye Fan said with a smile again.
Akatsuki was even more confused.
"That Chi Yao molested my wife, sucked away the spiritual power of Succubus, humiliated me verbally, and beat me up. This hatred will be avenged in the future, but the time has not come yet." Ye Fan picked up the teacup on the table and said with a smile.
Ye Fan said those words casually with a calm expression on his face.
However, the more calm he was, the more Akatsuki felt a trace of murderous intent from Ye Fan's words.
"You have to be careful of that Chi Yao." Ye Fan put down the teacup and reminded Akatsuki, "This person is evil and lustful. He is even worse than Sato Kawakara. When you meet him, you must be very careful."
"If he dares to do anything to me, I will show him my swordsmanship." Akatsuki narrowed her eyes and said.
"Your swordsmanship and ninjutsu are indeed very powerful. If it was a year ago, you might be able to fight him to a draw. However, things are different now. If you fight him now, I'm afraid you won't be able to last more than three moves." Ye Fan said to Akatsuki seriously, "You must know that he was the leader of the Four Guardians of the Cuiming Hall. His cultivation level is very high. Later, he planned a sneak attack to suck away all the spiritual power of Succubus. His cultivation level increased greatly. Now, he created the secret technique 'Yin Yang Dual Life Technique.' His cultivation level is not what it used to be. Even I have to put in a lot of effort to get rid of him, let alone you."
"He … he is so powerful?" Akatsuki was shocked when she heard Ye Fan say this.
"If his cultivation level is not so high, why would Matsumoto Takeyoshi take him under his wing and restrain me?" Ye Fan asked.
Akatsuki nodded.
"When I'm not here, you must not come into contact with him alone. Otherwise, he will use evil techniques to control you. Do you understand?" Ye Fan instructed Akatsuki.
"Don't worry. If you aren't here, I won't stay on the ship." Akatsuki smiled and said.
"You won't stay on the ship? What do you mean? "Ye Fan was confused.
"From now on, wherever you go, I will go." Akatsuki supported her chin with one hand and looked at Ye Fan tenderly.
Ye Fan was taken aback, then shook his head and smiled.
"What are you smiling about?" Akatsuki asked Ye Fan.
"What, you won't part ways with me? Miss Yue? " Ye Fan smiled and reached out to pick up an apple from the fruit platter on the wooden table. He leaned back and took a bite.
"I just left you and you were taken away for ten days," Akatsuki said with a smile. "If I'm not by your side in the future, I'm afraid you'll get lost and be bullied, Mr. Bufan."
"You're a follower. Shame, shame, shame." Ye Fan took big bites of the apple as he looked at Yue Hongji and laughed.
"Little brat, hahaha," Akatsuki said as she made a face at Ye Fan …
The cabin of the warship was brightly lit.
"Yamada-kun, in your opinion, what do you think of this Chi Yao?" Matsumoto Takeyoshi asked the man in white as he gently scraped the tea in his cup with the lid.
"In terms of cultivation, this person is indeed hard to come by." The man in white standing behind Matsumoto Takeyoshi said, "But in terms of loyalty, this person is worthless."
"Oh? Why do you think so, Yamada-kun? "Matsumoto Takeyoshi asked as he took a sip of the fragrant tea.
"This person took the initiative to join the army, there must be a reason," the man in white said. "With this person's cultivation, if he wants to be rich and powerful, it's as easy as turning over his hand. Why would he join the army of Sir?"
Matsumoto Takeyoshi didn't say anything and continued to drink his tea quietly.
"He came to join the army of Sir, saying that he wants to help Sir achieve great things, but in fact, that's not the case," the man in white continued. "In my opinion, this person volunteered himself for an ulterior motive."
"What is his motive?" Matsumoto Takeyoshi asked.
"Perhaps it's to avoid being hunted down by the Cuiming Hall, or perhaps it's just a pretense to join the army of Sir," the man in white said.
Matsumoto Takeyoshi nodded.
"As far as I know, this person's status in the Cuiming Hall is extremely high, and he's the head of the Four Great Protectors. The Cuiming Hall's wealth is comparable to that of an entire country, and his strength is so strong that anyone who talks about him pales," the man in white continued. "Such wealth and power can't satisfy him, which shows how big his appetite is. He can betray his master, Cui Ziwen, and in the future, he will naturally betray you, Sir. "
Matsumoto Takeyoshi frowned.
The last sentence of the man in white hit the nail on the head.
Matsumoto Takeyoshi hated disloyalty the most.
Demons who killed without batting an eyelid, vicious and merciless experts, and insidious and cunning experts — he could treat all of them with respect and treat them with respect, but disloyalty was the only thing he couldn't tolerate.
And this Chi Yao happened to be a disloyal person.
"In your opinion, what should we do with this Chi Yao?" Matsumoto Takeyoshi continued to drink his tea.
"It's very simple, give him a few missions to do and test him," the man in white replied. "If it's useful, use it cautiously, and if it's not, discard it."
