Chapter 363 Meeting Feng XIII
Blood Wolf said, “Yes, a treaty of peace. I know that you and I are the same. Your Buddhism can’t tolerate me, and our Dragon Gate can’t tolerate you either. But now, our Dragon Gate is in turmoil, and I’m not ready yet, so I plan to make a treaty of peace for six months with you here. Within half a year, neither of us can attack anyone and hurt any member of the opposing party. If one breaks the oath, you and I won’t make any progress in martial arts, and we’ll stop there forever.”
A fierce light shone from Mr. Buddha’s eyes. Such an oath was indeed serious for a man who practiced martial arts. If he could not make any progress in martial arts, he would feel more unhappy than death. There was no exception for a man who had reached a high level in martial arts. Mr. Buddha was young, so he could not easily break such an oath.
Blood Wolf looked at Mr. Buddha, holding a remote control in his hand, and asked, “Do you dare to swear?”
They looked at each other. Finally, Mr. Buddha said, “I swear that within six months, as long as your Dragon Gate doesn’t attack us, our Buddhism won’t hurt anyone of Dragon Gate. If I break my oath, I won’t make any progress in martial arts.”
“Well,” Blood Wolf said, “you can go.”
Since Mr. Buddha said so, Blood Wolf no longer needed to make an oath. If Dragon Gate launched an attack first, Mr. Buddha did not need to obey this vow.
Mr. Buddha looked at Blood Wolf, turned around, and walked slowly to the outside. When he went out of the Catholic Church, and was some distance away, there was a deep light in his eyes. Mr. Buddha smiled gently and muttered to himself, “Blood Wolf… is a bit interesting. It seems that I was right in choosing him…”
After he finished talking to himself, Mr. Buddha suddenly disappeared as if he had never appeared in this place.
Having achieved his goal, Blood Wolf left the Catholic Church quietly. Although he looked calm, his hands were sweaty. Blood Wolf could not see through Mr. Buddha, so it had been a risky move. Only a person like Blood Wolf dared to take a risky move, and he succeeded this time. In the next half a year, Blood Wolf would have no additional worries. He would devote all his energy on the internal organizations of the Dragon Gate and unify them.
Half a year later, even if Mr. Buddha did not launch an attack, Blood Wolf would not tolerate the existence of Buddhism. As they say, a great man cannot brook a rival.
After Xiao Bing got up the next morning, a maid brought breakfast to his room. Although he appreciated talents, the Emperor could not eat with Xiao Bing and Fukuda every day. He did so to give a face to his adopted granddaughter. However, he could not eat with subordinates every day, which was not realistic. So, he asked someone to bring breakfast to his room. For Xiao Bing, it was a good treatment.
After having breakfast, Xiao Bing went to tell the princess that he would walk around in the Kokyo.
Xiao Bing could not look for those two people in the daytime. He could walk around and familiarise himself with the surroundings. Although he was already familiar with the general situation through drawings he had seen previously, it was better to see it personally.
Princess Nami was going to talk to her grandfather Iza Kawatani, so she let Xiao Bing walk around, leaving Fukuda by her side.
The Kokyo of Country R was large. Last night, Xiao Bing only searched almost a quarter or one-fifth of the place, before he startled Feng XIII. He had not seen the rest of the place. So, he would have a trial run of the route today…
With Princess Nami’s tag, no one stopped him along the way. He had visited all the places and remembered the most noteworthy places. However, it was a little rocky when he came back. Outside the Hall of Martial Gods, he met Feng XIII, who would be going in too.
Feng XIII and Xiao Bing met under the steps, and both of them were ready to go upstairs. When enemies come face to face, their eyes blazed with hatred. Having experienced what happened last night, Xiao Bing hid all his emotions. He should not know who Feng XIII was, so he pretended not to know him. He glanced at him and went straight up the steps.
Both of them walked side by side and said nothing. When they almost reached the top step, Feng XIII suddenly said, “You should not be a person from the Kokyo, right? I have not seen you before.”
What the hell. Feng XIII had a good memory. He knew everyone in the Kokyo.
Xiao Bing drawled, “Do you know everyone in such a large place like the Kokyo? I don’t know you either.”
Feng XIII said, “It’s normal that I don’t know everyone, but you are different from the others. If I don’t recognize a person who has a different breath, it means that he does not belong here. Tell me who you are.”
Xiao Bing did not expect that Feng XIII would be so astute, but he did not feel anxious. He drawled, “Princess Nami’s personal warrior, Aoki Ichiro.”
“Oh.” When he heard that, Feng XIII was relieved. He had heard about Princess Nami’s recruitment of a personal warrior. Moreover, he knew that one of the judges of the competition was his apprentice. He did not expect that they would recruit such a strong person. While going up the steps, he felt that the man should have reached the peak of the acquired masters, one step from the Innate Realm.
Although he could not compete with Feng XIII, Xiao Bing could be regarded as a top master in any place.
Feng XIII wondered why such a master was willing to be Princess Nami’s guard. He thought a personal warrior was equal to a guard. After all, Princess Nami was a princess of the royal family and the first beauty. Even without a salary, many warriors wanted to serve Princess Nami, so it was not surprising.
Aoki Ichiro asked, “Do you have any more questions?”
He was a little arrogant and seemed to look down upon Feng XIII, a congenital master. However, Feng XIII did not lose his temper. He thought that Aoki Ichiro could not see through his strength, and was probably an arrogant young man.
They did not speak anymore, and went into the Hall of Martial Gods.
Eight warriors stood on either side of the Hall of Martial Gods. A housekeeper about 30 years old stood in the hall. Both of them asked at the same time, “Where is the princess?”
“Where is my master?”
The housekeeper bowed and smiled, “Princess Nami is talking with the Great Patriarch in the room. The Great Patriarch said that when you turn up, you can go in without prior notification.”
Feng XIII was a bit surprised. He never thought that Xiao Bing would get the same treatment. He was Iza Kawatani’s apprentice, but Aoki Ichiro was the princess’s warrior. Feng XIII thought it was a good honor for Aoki Ichiro, that he could walk into the Hall of Martial Gods. However, Feng XIII wondered why Aoki Ichiro could go into his master’s room without prior notification. Such things had never happened before.
Feng XIII suddenly realized that he looked down upon the person next to him. He knew too much about his master’s temperament. It seemed that Aoki Ichiro was not just cocky.
Feng XIII looked at Xiao Bing. Xiao Bing was a little speechless. “Damn, I’m handsome. Are you jealous of me? Feng XIII is so astute. He has not discovered my flaws, so he is staring at me. No wonder he was able to kill old Lei. He looks like a tricky asshole. After I complete my task this time, I ‘ll kill the bastard and seek revenge for Old Lei.”
Xiao Bing ignored Feng XIII, and glanced at him. Then, he walked towards Iza Kawatani’s room.
Feng XIII walked beside and asked, “Aoki Ichiro, how is it that you are able to go in and out of the Hall of Martial Gods so freely?”
Xiao Bing drawled, “How can you go in and out of the Hall of Martial Gods so freely, as well?”
Feng XIII no longer asked. He perceived that the warrior was a scumbag. He never expected that there could be such a warrior. It was no wonder that he was different from others. Maybe it was due to his personality. However, Xiao Bing was weaker than him, and could not pose any threat to him. He thought that he might be related to the eavesdropper last night because he had not seen him before. But now, he thought that it was probably just a coincidence.
When he went to the door, Feng XIII became serious and cautious. He knocked on the door and called, “Master.”
“XIII, are you here? The door is unlocked. Come in.”
Feng XIII pushed open the door and walked in with Xiao Bing. When he saw Xiao Bing, Iza Kawatani immediately said, “Aoki Ichiro, why are you together? Sit down.”
Feng XIII knew that his master only cared about martial arts and treated him harshly. However, he had been enthusiastic when he saw Aoki Ichiro. Feng XIII felt anxious and doubtful, but he immediately sat down and prepared to wait and see.
