"I say, stay awake a little longer. If you want to sleep, wait until we reach Tokyo."
"The air conditioning on the train is set really low; if you fall asleep, you'll catch a cold easily."
At Yokohama train station, the train had just set off for its destination in Japan. Ye Huan irritably spoke to Jiang Shishuang, who was holding a plush bear and looked drowsy beside him.
"All your fault, waking up so early. It wouldn't hurt to sleep a bit more." Jiang Shishuang gave a cold snort but didn't close her eyes again, clearly not planning to continue sleeping.
Ye Huan didn't say much more. He also wanted to sleep longer, but if he slept too much today, he'd wake up late again. Better to adjust to the ti difference ahead of ti.
Easier to endure a little pain now than a lot later.
Jiang Shishuang forced herself to perk up, turning her head to enjoy the scenery outside the window, her thoughts a bit scattered.
Last night, she clearly had a chance to kill Ye Huan with a single strike, but she hesitated at the critical mont.
Such a nuisance!
She had resolved to eliminate him, but at the critical mont, he acted so considerate, so ticulous, so gentle, that she couldn't bring herself to do it.
What a bastard.
No, she had to ntally prepare herself!
She must eliminate this guy as soon as possible. The more ti passes, the harder it will be to be ruthless!
"From now on, please keep a certain distance from and don't speak to unless necessary, thank you!" Jiang Shishuang said coldly, with her back to Ye Huan.
"Have you seriously burned out your brains from a fever?"
"You're the one who's brain-damaged. I'm talking about serious matters!"
Jiang Shishuang's face flushed, teeth grinding. She found she truly couldn't act cold towards Ye Huan!
Damn it, had I known, I wouldn't have gotten on the sa ship with him!
And now, after boarding that "pirate ship," half of her heart was stolen by him!
Ye Huan rolled his eyes without responding to Jiang Shishuang, instead glancing out of the corner of his eye at the seven n in samurai attire five rows ahead in the sa compartnt. They slled foul, with their feet on the seats, loudly discussing things, appearing quite unrefined.
The energy fluctuations from these seven were very weak. One of them was a Genin, and the other six were just ordinary samurai!
"Sigh, we were doing just fine at Yokohama Airport, and then Lord Kada suddenly ordered us back to Tokyo. Isn't this just causing us trouble? Catching a couple of won shouldn't require all this fuss?" The Genin, who appeared similar to a Japanese but spoke with clumsy Japanese, complained.
"Boss, your words aren't right. Lord Kada naturally has his thoughtful reasons. Besides, we've been guarding the airport for long, without won or fine drink, and facing the threat from the World Emperor—Ye Huan. Isn't being sent back to Tokyo perfect?"
"They say Ye Huan is the God of Slaughter from the Western Dark World, a Celestial God Level figure, incredibly powerful, slightly stronger than you by 'a little bit.' Staying there ans no advantages and constant worry about danger. Now, being sent back to capture those two won is much easier. If we're lucky and catch those two first, it would an a great achievent and we can see how beautiful they are. If they're good-looking, we can have so fun, haha!"
"Yeah, what you said makes sense. Although the boss's status in Orochi is particularly high, with power vast as the heavens and strength beyond imagination, able to make Japan quake with just a stomp, there's still 'a little bit' of disadvantage facing Great Emperor Ye Huan. Offending Ye Huan isn't wise. Being sent back to Japan instead suits our interests better."
The six samurai chid in one after the other, loudly flattering the Genin while crossing their wooden sandals-clad legs.
The ashes from the Genin's cigarette fell casually to the floor!
Their quality was terrible, severely disrupting the compartnt's order.
But including the staff, not a single person dared confront them.
The reason being, Japanese society is strictly hierarchical.
Common people's status is far below that of Orochi samurai, and Orochi samurai are far below Orochi ninja!
From their conversation, it was clear they were samurai and ninja from Orochi!
Moreover, they appear to have significant backing!
Their boss only falls 'a little bit' behind the recent esteed Great Emperor Ye Huan!
This ans their status in Orochi must be high!
Passengers and staff were all ordinary people. How could they stop the low-grade behavior of these "big shots?"
Unless they had a death wish!
"You've got a point."
"On this trip back, I feel like I can earn great accomplishnts. My status and power will skyrocket, perhaps soon becoming one of Orochi's top super big shots!"
"Yet here I am, such a big shot, without a beauty of my own, what a big regret in life!"
The Genin lanted, full of pretentiousness.
The six samurai hearing this agreed with a sigh.
Then, they all glanced out of the corner of their eyes towards Jiang Shishuang beside Ye Huan.
Seeing the two unresponsive, they frowned a bit.
When they got on the train, they imdiately noticed Jiang Shishuang, this stunning beauty.
From indirectly bragging by referencing Ye Huan to the Genin's pretentious lantations of "emptiness, loneliness, and the cold, high place," the purpose was to boast, signaling to Jiang Shishuang: We are unattached super big shots, co embrace us!
Though they're actually just the bottom tier Genin squad in Orochi with no status, only handling dirty, hard jobs, they've used this tactic to fool many won into offering themselves and many ordinary n to offer their pretty girlfriends to please them.
It seed to always work for them.
Unexpectedly, they encountered sothing strange today.
That woman, hearing their boasts, showed no intention of approaching them.
That man, hearing their ostentatious claims and titles, remained indifferent, with no intent to offer his girlfriend to please them!
The seven looked at each other, perplexed, but didn't think much of it.
Anyway, they're determined to win over Jiang Shishuang.
If the hints don't work, then ti to take action!
They all stood up, wearing indifferent expressions, heading towards Ye Huan and Jiang Shishuang.
While the train is moving, for safety reasons, passengers are generally not allowed to walk around. But the staff wouldn't dare stop these seven masters, instead eagerly making way.
Passengers seeing the seven approach Ye Huan saw their target was Jiang Shishuang, sitting next to Ye Huan, and sighed, shaking their heads.
Poor guy, truly couldn't read the situation.
The samurai master has declared he lacks won, and here you are with such a beautiful girlfriend, yet not actively offering her up—aren't you asking for trouble?
"Miss, care to get acquainted?" The Genin sat directly in front of Jiang Shishuang, grinning wickedly at her.
Then was stunned!
From afar he hadn't noticed, but now, seeing her up close, she seed familiar!
Upon careful recollection, his eyes widened: "Cousin?!"
