On the night when the King of Heaven died, the Japanese government immediately ordered all media to report that there was an unexpected and major fire in the palace.
The palace was old and in disrepair, and the wind was high and the moon was dark, so the fire spread quickly, creating the first fire in thirty years.
The fire not only destroyed more than a dozen scenic spots, but also burned the King of Heaven and two princes to death, causing heavy losses to the royal family and the East.
The Toyo government immediately controlled the people involved and put out the fire at two o'clock in the morning, stabilizing the bad situation.
When the news came out, many people who didn't know the truth were in an uproar. No one thought that the king and the others would be burned alive.
Later, they shouted with indignation that the murderer would be severely punished. At the same time, they spontaneously went to mourn the King and the two princes near the palace.
Candles and flowers were swept away.
And for the powerful people from all parties who knew more inside information, they were incredibly shocked! Aside from being shocked, it’s still shocking!
The first reaction of many powerful people when they heard the news was that their eyes widened like goldfish, and then they gasped like they were drowning and sighed with all their strength:
Ye Tianlong is really a demon king.
The proud Prince Gongwu, the mysterious Liuwei Mansion, and the King of Heaven who reigned over the world were all reduced to ashes in one day.
Professional comments from authoritative figures began to circulate in the underground world. An internet user named ‘Xuan Shuai’ pointed out in a discussion on Southeast Asia’s top martial arts forum:
"Ye Tianlong is so terrifying."
"Although there is no video of the battle in the palace, nor did I see Ye Tianlong's action with my own eyes, we can analyze it from the combat effectiveness of Tian Wang and others."
"Heimiya Yu is an eighth-level ninja, Aso Sachiko is a quasi-eighth-level ninja, the King of Heaven's combat power is close to the ninth level, and the strength of the Six Guards is equal to five eighth-level ninjas."
"Oh my god, that is to say, Ye Tianlong's battle last night was equivalent to killing seven eighth-grade men, one almost ninth-grade man, and then escaped unscathed."
"You can say that, and don't forget that before Ye Tianlong attacked the palace, he killed Qi Wei, Gong Wu, and Nakajima at the Sakura Club."
"That means that within half a day, Ye Tianlong killed ten eighth-grades and one almost ninth-grade, and nothing happened at all?"
"The correct answer...to be more precise, he left with the knife after Akishinoko appeared..."
"Beast! Abnormal! Idol of life..."
"Oriental martial arts will not be able to rise in ten years..."
"Akishinoko is Dongyang's last backbone. If Changbai loses the battle, Dongyang will be able to get up in twenty years, let alone ten years."
Hearing these well-founded rumors, any powerful man in the East can't help but sigh with sadness.
They also suddenly realized that the glorious deeds and strong soldiers and horses they thought they had had no confidence and were extremely fragile in front of Ye Tianlong.
Ye Tianlong...really, really...
It seems that all adjectives cannot accurately express the shock and loss in the hearts of the superiors on all sides.
Subsequently, many forces made a decision. Although they were angry at Ye Tianlong's arrogance, the nephew of the family must not provoke him...
After the fire was extinguished, the smoke was lingering and the mood was sad.
The sky was gloomy, covered with dark clouds, and sporadic light rain fell. The wind blew slowly, but it could not dissipate the smell of blood.
The damage to the palace was not serious. The twenty explosion points did not cause any damage, but only burned some debris and property.
The real loss last night was people.
One of the few big shots in the East, Minister of Defense Yokota Taixiang, was wearing a black raincoat and stood on the palace wall like a log.
Next to him stood Akishinoko, followed by four bodyguards and confidants.
Yokota stared coldly at the ruined palace, and then looked at the mourning hall crowded with nearly a hundred royal family members, with murderous intent rising on his face.
"Master, you were here last night, why didn't you kill that madman?"
After a long time, Yokota managed to say something to Akishinoko beside him. Although his expression was still extremely respectful, his tone contained a hint of reproach.
He didn't want to offend the pride of Japan like Akishinoko, but after two princes, a princess and the king died overnight, he was under too much pressure.
"I wasn't sure I could kill him last night!"
Akishinoko has always been proud, but she still decided to explain at this moment. She sighed quietly: "If you can burn twenty fires, it means you have companions to help you."
"And there are too many royal nephews and remnants of the Sixth Guards at the scene."
"If I hadn't taken action last night, I don't know whether Ye Tianlong would have died or not, but I'm afraid the entire palace would have been bloodbathed."
"Enough people have died in Dongyang. If we lose a lot of blood in the royal family, Dongyang will not be able to breathe for ten years."
She looked forward very indifferently, looking at the palace in the white smoke: "In your eyes, maybe I was a coward last night, but I have a clear conscience."
Prime Minister Yokota bowed slightly: "Master, I'm sorry, it was Yokota who was so angry that he spoke unscrupulously, and I asked Master to give you more."
Akishinoko sighed softly: "I don't blame you, I can understand your mood."
"Thank you for your understanding, Master."
Yokota squeezed out a sentence: "Master, you are a ninth-level master. Looking at the world, you are also one of the few masters. You still can't kill Ye Tianlong?"
Several subordinates also looked at Qiu Xiaozi, with indescribable nervousness in their eyes, worried that Qiu Xiaozi was no match for Ye Tianlong.
Qiu Xiaozi replied generously: "Although I have broken through to the ninth level, it is not completely stable yet and needs some time to digest."
"Ye Tianlong is hard to tell, maybe he is not at the ninth level, but I am not sure about the madness he showed last night."
"He holds the magic sword Muramasa in his hand, half crazy and half demon, bloodthirsty and cruel. I guess he is affected by the magic sword."
She made a judgment: "Ye Tianlong has improved his combat effectiveness with the help of the magic sword, but his mind has also been corroded by the magic sword."
Yokotata Taisho's eyes lit up when he heard it: "You mean, Ye Tianlong was driven crazy by the magic sword, so you can't kill him for a while?"
"You can say that."
Akishinoko's eyes flashed: "I am 80% sure to kill the normal Ye Tianlong, but the chance of winning the possessed Ye Tianlong is only 50%."
"You are also a martial artist, I know the power of the demon sword."
"So I didn't make a move last night, waiting for the battle on the 8th."
"During this period of time, Ye Tianlong has only two results, the first is completely possessed by the devil, and the second is awake."
"If he is completely possessed by the devil, there is no need for me to make a move, and everyone can get it. If he gets rid of the demon sword and wakes up, he will also waste his energy."
She did not hide her thoughts: "Therefore, the battle in Changbai is better than last night."
"Master is wise!"
Yokotae was slightly stunned, then laughed and bowed slightly: "Master is very thoughtful, Yokota is convinced."
"Inherited from the same lineage."
Akishinoko opened her red lips slightly:
"The enemy of the East is also the enemy of me, Akishinoko."
