Chapter 563: Chapter 560 Beichen Divine Master! [Second Update]
Miyamoto Sakura responded and then swaggered in following Li Chen’s orders.
Just as she entered the first basent floor of the cellar, an old-sounding voice ca to her ears.
“Princess, halt!”
Upon hearing the voice, Miyamoto Sakura’s heart suddenly jolted.
However, before she could locate the source of the voice, a virtual illusion flashed twice before her eyes.
Imdiately after, two hunched old n with white hair appeared in front of her.
Miyamoto Sakura was startled and quickly composed herself, bowing respectfully: “Greetings, Master!”
One of the elders, full of surprise, asked, “Princess, what brings you here?”
With respectful eyes, Miyamoto Sakura replied, “My grandfather wishes to consult with the two Masters regarding matters of Martial Arts!”
This underground treasury was essentially an isolated island, cut off from the world. News from the outside world rarely made its way in, at least not as readily as it would in the outside world.
Both old n’s cloudy eyes simultaneously showed a hint of surprise, “Miyamoto Musashi, where is he?”
“Just outside waiting, Masters, please follow !”
While speaking, Miyamoto Sakura made a respectful gesture of invitation.
The two elders exchanged glances and walked toward the door.
After exiting the main door, one elder looked around and, seeing no sign of Miyamoto Musashi, was puzzled.
“Princess, where is Lord Miyamoto, why hasn’t he co out to et us?”
“Lord Miyamoto is already dead, and now I will send you down to et him!”
As these chilling words were spoken, Sword Shadows moved as fast as lightning, cutting through the night.
“Ah!”
One elder was terrified, caught off guard, and instinctively raised his Protective Gang Qi to defend.
However, his Protective Gang Qi was as fragile as tofu dregs against Li Chen’s Dragon Abyss, utterly incapable of withstanding even a single strike. It was instantly destroyed by the fierce and unparalleled Sword Intent.
The glittering Jian Feng pierced through his throat’s Life Gate in a split second.
With a “puff”, blood gushed out.
Seeing that things were looking bleak, the other elder subconsciously thought to retreat back into the treasury.
But before he could turn around, his body stiffened suddenly.
Imdiately after, a sword tip shimring with cold light pierced through his chest.
The elder’s pupils dilated in an instant, shouting in shock, “Princess, why are you committing such an act of treachery against your masters?”
“This question, you can go down and ask my grandfather!”
With these icy words, Miyamoto Sakura fiercely withdrew her long sword.
The elder’s chest spurted blood, and he collapsed into a puddle of mush in the blood pool.
Li Chen, confirming that both old n were thoroughly dead, casually collected their bodies into the Spiritual Pet Space. He considered it recycling waste, a midnight snack for Jiao Long.
Various treasures were displayed inside the treasury.
Part of it consists of treasures that originated from Japan and were passed down through generations.
However, most of them were plundered from other countries in the last century, with the largest number coming from Huaxia.
The space inside the storage ring has been expanded by Li Chen to the size of two soccer fields. On normal days, he would store so jade stones in it. Most of the space was still empty.
Thus, whether they were from Japan itself, Southeast Asia, or Huaxia, as long as it was a treasure, everything was scooped up into his bowl.
Seeing Li Chen act so ruthlessly, wanting to plunder all the treasures that the Japan Royal Family had accumulated over a thousand years, Miyamoto Sakura was shocked into a stupor.
“Master, you don’t plan to take all these things away, do you?”
Li Chen glanced back at her and casually asked, “Why, does it hurt to see robbing your family’s possessions?”
Miyamoto Sakura shook her head repeatedly, saying, “Not at all, even I myself belong to you, Master. How could I feel pained over these external objects? Moreover, these items belong to the Royal Family and not to a servant like !”
Seeing Miyamoto Sakura being so understanding, Li Chen nodded in satisfaction and said, “You don’t have a share if it’s kept here, but once I take it out, I will give you a share. Just take whatever you want!”
He was in a good mood today, so he spoke very generously.
Upon hearing Li Chen’s promise, a flash of delight appeared in Miyamoto Sakura’s bright eyes.
“Thank you, Master!”
However, before Miyamoto Sakura could finish her sentence, Li Chen’s expression suddenly turned cold. He abruptly raised his palm and struck towards her.
Miyamoto Sakura was extrely frightened, and her whole body froze.
The reason she was so submissive and compliant towards Li Chen, besides the Soul Capturing on her forehead, was also because she had unknowingly developed Stockholm Syndro. Deep in her heart, she completely depended on Li Chen and saw him as her whole world.[Note 1]
But she never expected that her reliance, the blue sky above her head, would actually want to silence her.
With thoughts whirling rapidly, she even forgot to resist and simply closed her eyes, ready to accept her fate.
However, the awaited death did not co.
“Move aside!”
Li Chen bellowed, grabbing her soft shoulder with one hand while the other hand, like Tai Mountain crashing down, struck directly towards sothing behind her.
“Boom!”
A deafening explosion echoed, and amidst the smoke, an ancient figure dressed in a Taoist robe appeared, his hair white but with a youthful face.
Seeing that Li Chen was not disgusted with her for being useless and wanting to kill her, but was instead saving her, Miyamoto Sakura was overjoyed.
However, when she saw the true face of the white-haired old man, her expression changed dramatically.
“Beichen Divine Master?”
Miyamoto Sakura was not unfamiliar with the old man before her.
His na was Beichen Qianfeng, the forr Sect Leader of Beichen One-Sword Style. He later willingly entered the Sunshine Divine Palace to serve as the Sunshine God’s Divine Servant in the Human World. Even the Sakura Festival under her neck was personally planted by this Beichen Divine Master.
She had never seen Beichen Qianfeng making a move, therefore she did not know his true strength. Only knowing from her grandfather, Miyamoto Musashi, who deeply respected this old friend and repeatedly expressed that he was no match for him.
From this, it was clear that Beichen Qianfeng’s skills were far superior to her grandfather, Miyamoto Musashi.
When Beichen Qianfeng indeed saw it was Miyamoto Sakura, his piercing eyes first flashed with astonishnt, then quickly turned into raging lightning as he angrily questioned.
“Miyamoto Sakura, you are a Royal Princess, the legitimate daughter of the Miyamoto Family, the current Sect Leader of Iga Palace, yet you collude with outsiders committing this act of betraying your masters and leading wolves into the den, aren’t you afraid of being blad by Amaterasu?”
