Watanabe Nagayumi paused for a mont and glanced at Watanabe Kazushi, saying, "The item has already been brought in; it's in this room."
Ling Zhenfei said, "Give it to . I've finished treating Mr. Watanabe, and I'll leave right away."
Watanabe Nagayumi exchanged a look with Watanabe Kazushi and said, "No need to rush, Mr. Ling. The item is here in this room. Let give it to you once the treatnt is over."
Listening to Watanabe Nagayumi, Ling Zhenfei extended his Divine Sense to cover the entire space but couldn't find any trace of Northern Spiritual Energy within the room.
The Heaven-Devouring Divine Cloth should have had spiritual energy flowing through it, so it was clear there was nothing here.
Realizing that Watanabe Nagayumi was deceiving him, Ling Zhenfei grew furious and said, "What's the matter, Mr. Watanabe? Are you going back on your word now? The poison and the spiritual energy have been cleared from your body, yet you still want to renege."
Watanabe Nagayumi replied, "No need to get worked up, Mr. Ling. I just want you to finish the remaining matters, and then I'll give it to you."
Ling Zhenfei said, "No way, I need to see it now since everything is about to be over."
Watanabe Kazushi nodded to Watanabe Nagayumi, who then called out a na, and soone appeared at the door with a tray.
Ling Zhenfei had seen this tray several tis before; the two pieces of the Heaven-Devouring Divine Cloth were on it.
Ling Zhenfei felt a bit excited inside; this was the closest he had ever been to the Heaven-Devouring Divine Cloth.
Watanabe Nagayumi took the tray and placed it on a table beside him, saying, "Here you go, Mr. Ling. I've put it here, and you can be assured."
Ling Zhenfei nodded and said, "Alright, I believe you this once."
Ling Zhenfei contemplated how he would leave shortly and then began the final bandaging treatnt for Watanabe Kazushi.
Being stabbed at the Yongquan Acupoint, such a wound is really not easy to heal, and Watanabe Kazushi would likely need so ti for proper rest and recuperation.
Ling Zhenfei finally completed everything and stood up, saying, "Mr. Watanabe, both of you, my work is done. The spiritual energy in Mr. Watanabe Kazushi's body has been cleared."
Watanabe Nagayumi asked Watanabe Kazushi, "How do you feel, Uncle?"
Watanabe Kazushi laughed softly, "Not bad, this feeling is truly wonderful. The spiritual energy within is indeed gone, but you made a mistake—what was within was not spiritual energy but demonic energy."
Ling Zhenfei paused in surprise, having never heard of the term "demonic energy."
Despite being very curious about what demonic energy ant, Ling Zhenfei didn't feel it was appropriate to ask under these circumstances.
Ling Zhenfei said, "Mr. Watanabe, I think I've earned my reward by now, haven't I?"
As he spoke, Ling Zhenfei reached for the two pieces of Heaven-Devouring Divine Cloth, but Watanabe Nagayumi blocked him.
Ling Zhenfei paused, "Why can't I take them now?"
Watanabe Nagayumi's expression vanished, and he said, "My great uncle hasn't spoken yet, so what are you taking?"
Ling Zhenfei looked at Watanabe Kazushi, who said, "Mr. Ling, rest assured, since we said we'd give you the Heaven-Devouring Divine Cloth, we definitely will. I am a man of my word.
Ling Zhenfei said, "Since you're principled, you should hurry up and give the item. Let's part on good terms. I've done my best to treat Mr. Watanabe's injuries."
Watanabe Kazushi said, "I can give you the item, but you must agree to do sothing for . Of course, it's a simple task for you."
Ling Zhenfei asked, "What is it?"
Watanabe Kazushi, free from the disturbing spiritual energy, let his body's Northern Spiritual Energy flow from the Dantian to nourish his whole body, becoming much stronger than before.
Previously, Watanabe Kazushi spoke weakly and sotis didn't want to talk, but now he's different, full of energy.
Watanabe Kazushi said, "At your young age, to possess such strong spiritual energy and powerful cultivation technique is truly remarkable.
If I'm not mistaken, your powerful cultivation technique should be derived from the Heaven-Devouring Divine Cloth. Only the techniques on it have the power to destroy the world."
Ling Zhenfei was slightly taken aback. He didn't expect Watanabe Kazushi to see right through him, like a glance into his soul.
Ling Zhenfei laughed and said, "Mr. Watanabe, what are you talking about? Isn't it said that no one else has obtained the secrets on the Heaven-Devouring Divine Cloth? How can you be sure I've acquired them?"
Watanabe Kazushi said, "In the past, Watanabe Nagayumi sparred with you. At that ti, your strength was significantly lower than his, yet you defeated him in just a few moves.
The strength of spiritual energy in this world determines the power of one's abilities. You managed to defeat soone stronger than yourself, and Watanabe Nagayumi said you landed four moves on him, with each move doubling the energy.
I've never heard of such a cultivation technique, and this overpowering spiritual energy seems like it can only co from the Heaven-Devouring Divine Cloth. When you later expressed great interest in it, I deduced sothing.
Seeing your interest in the Heaven-Devouring Divine Cloth at Bin Qi Wu's place, I was almost certain your cultivation technique ca from it."
Ling Zhenfei smiled and said, "Everything you've said is rely conjecture. Do you have any evidence?"
Watanabe Kazushi said, "No evidence is needed. We can give you the Heaven-Devouring Divine Cloth, but you must tell us its secret."
Ling Zhenfei said, "I don't know any secrets about the Heaven-Devouring Divine Cloth. I just want to study it to find out its secrets."
"Do you think we would believe that?" Watanabe Nagayumi said.
Ling Zhenfei said, "Mr. Watanabe, ever since I ca to Japan, I've been truly impressed by Japanese people like you, who push your sense of integrity to such extres that only you would do such things, I reckon."
Watanabe Nagayumi laughed and said, "Mr. Ling, do you think you can provoke us into giving up the item by saying such things? Let tell you directly, if you don't tell us the secrets on the Heaven-Devouring Divine Cloth, you won't be able to get it."
Ling Zhenfei indeed regretted not heeding Hoshino igetsu's advice about the untrustworthy Watanabe Family. He shouldn't have cared about Watanabe Kazushi back then.
But now, with the situation as it stands, there's nothing Ling Zhenfei can do; it seems he must find a way to get the Heaven-Devouring Divine Cloth.
Ling Zhenfei asked, "If I tell you the secrets of the Heaven-Devouring Divine Cloth, will you really give it to ?"
Watanabe Kazushi replied, "Of course. I told you, if you can tell the secrets of the Heaven-Devouring Divine Cloth, I will give it to you."
Ling Zhenfei found it amusing, thinking they took him for a fool. If they don't want to give it to him now, they certainly won't once he tells them the secret.
