“What else do you have? Hurry up!”
Tenshou God seemed like he was in a rush to kill Demonic Fox.
“Well, if you kill her now, Chen Xiaobei might be frightened and run off!”
“Chen Xiaobei? What does he have to do with her?”
“According to our intel, a security video in one of the hotels in Green Vine Town, China, showed Tochigi Hyokitsune and Chen Xioabei checking into a room. It appears that they are in a relationship! They also made contact back in Paradise Island. It was at that time when he took 8,000 Spiritual Stones from the crown prince! There’s a chance that Chen Xiaobei snuck into Japan because they were onto something! If you kill Tochigi Hyokitsune now, Chen Xiaobei will definitely flee Japan and may never show up on our radar again.”
Zar was right.
They had found the right lead.
Chen Xiaobei and Demonic Fox’s relationship had been a mystery all this while, even Chen Xiaobei’s closest friends and family knew nothing about it.
But it did not elude the USA’s C.I.A!
They really did live up to their title as the best intelligence agencies in the world!
“Are you saying that I should use Tochigi Hyokitsune to lure Chen Xiaobei out and then finish the both of them off?”
“You are truly wise, Tenshou God! We will be able to bait Chen Xiaobei and kill two birds with one stone! Then both of us will be happy!”
“Alright. I will ask Nikkawa Uchu to send her here. I will do my best to keep my hands off her for a few days!”
…
In the cave.
“Little Fox! Come give your daddy a kiss!”
Chen Xiaobei leaned on the rock and gestured at Demonic Fox.
“Really? How could you even be in the mood for that?”
Demonic Fox had worry written all over her face.
“I’m just trying to distract you. I don’t like seeing you like that.”
“How could I not worry? Let me tell you about the old bastard so that you know how scary he is…”
“Alright!”
“18 years ago, our family was the second most powerful family in Japan, after the Tenshou! My father Tochigi Minamoto was a direct disciple of the Tenshou, just like the Emperor God!”
“Does that mean that Uncle also went to Northern Wilderness Starfield?”
“Yes! Not only did he go to the Northern Wilderness Starfield, but he was also even chosen by the North Wilderness God to be his disciple! My father was supposed to stay in North Wilderness Starfield but one time, he came back to earth when he had a day off, met my mother and had me accidentally… For my mother’s and my sake, father refused the offer to be the disciple and remained in Japan. And this lead to the annihilation of the whole Tochigi family!
Chen Xiaobei frowned and asked, “Was that because of the 100,000 Spiritual Stones?”
Yesterday, after his talk with Phantom Rain, Chen Xiaobei found out that the once the person who had entered the North Wilderness Starfield via the recommendation of a demigod was chosen by the North Wilderness Starfield, the demigod will be rewarded with 100,000 Spiritual Stones.
That was how North Wilderness Starfield recruited their subordinates—all of the best talents from all the other lower tier starfields to strengthen their force.
But Demonic Fox’s father quit the position; which also meant that the Tenshou’s reward would be confiscated.
“That’s right! Father’s resignation was a slap to North Wilderness Starfield! One of the elders came to take back the 100,000 Spiritual Stones from Tenshou. And, they were not willing to pay him the 30,000 Spiritual Stones bonus as well! From then on, the Tenshou held a grudge against my father!”
He could only recommend a person to go to North Wilderness Starfield every three to five years and he did not even get half a stone. How could Tenshou not be mad?!
“But that was not the reason Tenshou did that! The real reason behind his decision to annihilate my family was suspicious! My father was not even 40 when he broke through the pinnacle phase of Celestial Cultivation and on the verge of becoming a Sky Ninja! So, a rumor started to spread, saying that my father resigned and came back to take over the Tenshou’s place! My father saw the Tenshou as his shield, the sifu who had taught him everything he knew. He was grateful and loyal to the Tenshou! But the Tenshou was suspicious of my father and was still resentful for losing the 100,000 Spiritual Stones. This led him to kill my entire family! There were a total of 103 members in the Tochigi family. He killed every single one of them! He even murdered the guests, old and young, who attended my birthday party. He killed a total of 300 people! It was my 5th birthday when I saw Tenshou crush the head of a girl my age! He thought that she was me! Poor girl! She died in my place! I hid in a dark corner and evaded death! From then on, I have sworn to continue to live on so that I could have my revenge! I don’t care even if I have to sell my body and soul!”
Demonic Fox balled her hands into a fist so hard that it was drained of color.
Her innocent face twisted into a scowl.
“Relax… That’s all in the past…”
Chen Xiaobei placed a hand on her shoulder and said, “The dead are gone. All we can do is continue to live on so that we can make the culprit pay! He’ll get what he deserves!”
“Mmmm… I understand…” Demonic Fox took in a deep breath, suppressing her anger. “I’m telling you all this so that you know that Tenshou is a cynical man! Even if he trusts you now, he might suspect you the next second and kill you!”
Chen Xiaobei nodded and said, “I understand what you mean. Right now, everything went as we have planned. If he grows suspicious, he will kill me without a second thought even if I am masked as Nikkawa Uchu!”
Ding ring ring!
Nikkawa Uchu called.
Both Chen Xiaobei’s and Demonic Fox’s expression changed.
