The cars stopped outside the Kirihara dojo. Sakurai Yaeko’s bodyguards stood beside the door respectfully. Nobody was watching this scene as not only did Sakurai Yaeko purchase the entire Kirihara dojo, she also bought the land nearby.
This was also the reason why Lu Shu’s information was all found out within the first day. There were no other people nearby the Kirihara dojo.
The Kirihara dojo was a yard. Therefore, if there were tall buildings nearby, people could peek into how the yard looked like using binoculars. Therefore, Sakurai Yaeko demolished all the buildings which were taller than two storeys nearby.
If anyone climbed onto a rooftop nearby, they would be discovered immediately. Therefore, Lu Shu was blatantly observing the dojo under the surveillance of dozens of members of the Collection of Gods.
Now, Lu Shu felt speechless after knowing this. Looks like a Class A expert could be targeted by technology at times. It could only be solved by delayed observation.
Luckily, there was no such technology in the Luniverse or Liu Yizhao might be targeted.
However… Couldn’t the Wei Wu Army make use of technology to equip themselves, at least using night-vision devices?
Although practitioners’ vision was very powerful, night vision was still a limitation.
When Sakurai Yaeko, Chiba Mahiro and Lu Shu walked towards the dojo, the middle-aged lady behind her suddenly asked in a deep voice, “When should I pick you up at night?”
Usually, Sakurai Yaeko would tell her the time personally. Before this period of time, the vehicles stayed away and were parked at some other location. There were buildings of the Collection of Gods nearby and one of them was used as a rest site for Sakurai Yaeko’s drivers and bodyguards while waiting for her.
Yet today, Sakurai Yaeko did not say the time. The middle-aged lady reminded her as she thought Sakurai Yaeko had forgotten about it.
However, Sakurai Yaeko said, “You don’t have to pick me up tonight, just wait for instructions nearby.”
The middle-aged lady took a deep breath but held it in. Just now… Sakurai Yaeko said that she did not have to pick her up?!
The middle-aged lady looked at Lu Shu in extreme shock. Lu Shu was annoyed. ‘Why are you looking at me, I am innocent!’
‘Hold on, what’s with that unbelievable expression!’
“From Motegi Toshimitsu’s distress, +788!”
Lu Shu felt helpless. How did such a high number of distress points come about?
Meanwhile, Sakurai Yaeko had not sat still during the period of time since their last meeting. The Collection of Gods had already completed their reform. At the beginning when Sakurai Yaeko took over as the leader of the Collection of Gods, the first thing she did was make the entire Collection of Gods stay loyal to her.
Therefore, although this made everyone feel surprised, they did not overthink it. They only felt that, Lu Shu was impressive…
Motegi Toshimitsu did not say anything else and respectfully left with the bodyguards. When Lu Shu stepped into the dojo, he felt as though he had entered another world. It had been a long time since he last came inside.
Like a little girl, Sakurai Yaeko introduced excitedly, “We haven’t touched your bedroom. Everything inside your bedroom still looks the same. Why don’t you stay here temporarily? I think that Matsuyama Shouji’s rental apartment must be uncomfortable.”
After that, Sakurai Yaeko looked at Lu Shu in anticipation. She hoped that Lu Shu could stay.
Lu Shu said happily, “This is not important, I can stay anywhere.”
Sakurai Yaeko was happy. This was definitely important, how could it be not important? At least, it was important to her.
Lu Shu took a glance at the interior of the room and suddenly realized that it was really very clean, as though someone had cleaned it everyday.
Therefore, if nobody in the Collection of Gods could enter the dojo, Sakurai Yaeko must be the person who was cleaning the place.
A leader of the Collection of Gods cleaned the yard everyday?
Sakurai Yaeko said, “You take a rest first, I will come out after changing into my home clothes.”
After ten minutes, Sakurai Yaeko went to Lu Shu in her sakura kimono and smiled gently to Lu Shu, “Is it pretty?”
“Cough cough, let’s get down to business.” Lu Shu diverted the topic.
Sakurai Yaeko did not pursue. Instead, she knelt down opposite Lu Shu and listened attentively. As compared to the Heavenly Network, the Collection of Gods was relatively weaker in terms of their intelligence gathering. In the past, they were very powerful but after a period of hiatus, the Collection of Gods took away quite a lot of power. Moreover, some of the intelligence power was taken away by You Mingyu.
Therefore, the intelligence capability of the Collection of Gods was way inferior to the Heavenly Network. The information brought by Lu Shu helped her to understand what exactly was happening in the outside world.
Since the start, Sakurai Yaeko had not mentioned anything about him being a spy. It seemed as though she did not mind.
After listening to Lu Shu for a while, Sakurai Yaeko said, “So all of them came from the Luniverse, right? Will you return to the Luniverse in the future, do you need me to help? I think you will need it, having more manpower is better!”
Lu Shu did not know how to react. “Let’s not talk about this. You should be careful of the slave owners from Southeast Asia. There is likely to be multiple Class A’s amongst them. If they forcefully put the slave seal on you, it would be disastrous.”
“If a slave seal was forcefully put on me, will you kill me? Or will you help me find the slave owner and kill him?” asked Sakurai Yaeko.
Lu Shu felt helpless. Why was a leader of an organization so good at diverting topics?!
“You have to watch out for your safety, safety, safety! Important things should be emphasised thrice!” emphasised Lu Shu.
“There is already a way to resolve this problem.” smiled Sakurai Yaeko.
Nakagawa Masaharu and Oda Masako hid in the forest near the Kokushikan University. Both of them heard about what Sakurai Yaeko stirred up in school but was not able to rush over to witness it personally.
Nakagawa Masaharu looked at Oda Masako and said, “Master had sent a message. Sakurai Yaeko is rather fierce and powerful. We can’t touch her for now. The other slave owners are rushing over but we have to finish our mission before they arrive as master is afraid that they will snatch her over!”
This was the first time Oda Masako had heard the term “snatch”. So the slave owners had a competitive relationship too? He asked calmly, “So, what should we do?”
“We have found Sakurai Yaeko’s weakness already,” smirked Nakagawa Masaharu, “She exposed it by herself. Kajiyama Hiroshu is an ordinary man, master asked us to control him and find a way to stir something out of him!”
Oda Masako thought that what Nakagawa said made sense but felt that something was wrong too…
