Genius Daddy in the City - Chapter 585

Chapter 585: A Gift From the Hidemoto Clan!

“I’m sorry, master!”

Chiba Yoshiko, who had regained consciousness, fell to her knees with a plop, “This servant nearly committed a grave mistake. I’m willing to accept any punishment from you!”

Although her body was controlled by the sub-soul earlier, her consciousness was still there. It could be said that she had witnessed the entire process of Ye Chen fighting Hidemoto Chiho.

If Ye Chen had not used the Golden Pupil Flame at the critical moment, she would probably have died at Hidemoto Chiho’s hands.

This was why Chiba Yoshiko was so fearful.

However, she was more shocked than anything else. The Hidemoto clan’s head, Hidemoto Chiho, was defeated by Ye Chen. Even her sub-soul was destroyed.

Although Hidemoto Chiho did not come in person, it proved that Ye Chen’s ability had surpassed her imagination once again.

At the critical moment, the two golden pillars of light that shot out of Ye Chen’s eyes shocked Chiba Yoshiko.

“Without my permission, don’t mess around next time!”

Ye Chen shook his head lightly and took the lead. His target was the place where the Hidemoto clan was located.

Through the previous battle, he had a rough understanding of the Japanese’s so-called Yin Yang Master’s techniques. Compared to the Chinese Dao techniques, the Japanese should be called sorcery, as their methods were extremely strange.

If he did not have any cultivation experience or Divine Consciousness that others called clairvoyant, he would have been at a disadvantage in the battle earlier.

…

Not long after they left, a man and a woman rushed over with a gust of wind. The two of them looked around carefully, they had doubtful expressions on their faces.

Luo Yao’s brows furrowed slightly, “That’s strange. Those two pillars of light clearly appeared here. Why isn’t there any trace of them?”

Tang Jianfeng did not say a word. Instead, he picked up a handful of soil and sniffed it. He shook his head and said, “There’s a trace of yin energy in the soil.”

“You can smell that?”

Luo Yao’s eyes immediately lit up. She looked at him as though he was a monster and clicked her tongue in wonder, “I say, Little Fengfeng, is your nose a dog’s nose? Or are you hiding a unique skill behind my back?”

Tang Jianfeng did not bother to talk to her. Instead, he looked around and said, “The two golden beams of light that looked like divinity belonged to the Vital Qi Method. They shouldn’t have any yin energy. Could it be that there were two powerhouses fighting here before we arrived?

Yes, that must be it!”

He nodded firmly and stood up, “It seems like there was a battle between righteous and evil went on here. The senior who casted the golden pillar of light must’ve won.”

“You smelled that as well?” Luo Yao was shocked.

Tang Jianfeng gave her a helpless look, “Of course I thought of it with my brain. Luo Shuiyao, can you be more serious? Why are you so crazy all the time? Can you be more reserved like the time we were on the cruise?”

“I told you to call me Luo Yao when we’re outside. Don’t call me Luo Shuiyao, or I’ll fight you to death!” Luo Yao immediately charged over with her hands looking like claws.

After a while, Tang Jianfeng took one last look at the scene, “It’s a pity that I didn’t get to see that senior’s face. I wonder if he’s Chinese or Japanese!”

…

Half an hour later, Ye Chen led Chiba Yoshiko to the entrance of Omakiyama. There were lush trees on the mountain as far as the eyes could see. Tourists would enter in an orderly manner from time to time with scented candles. It was very peaceful.

“Master, we’ve arrived at Omakiyama!”

Chiba Yoshiko stopped and introduced, “It’s said that this place wasn’t a tourist attraction but an ancient battlefield and a mass grave. It’s also said that many people were buried here a hundred years ago.”

“Ancient battlefield, a mass grave?” Ye Chen could not help but look at her.

She nodded and said, “At that time, it had been vacant for a long time, and everyone thought it was a bad omen. Later on, the Hidemoto clan applied to the government to make this place their training spot. They established a shrine, and gradually, more and more people came.”

With that, she took a step forward.

However, just as she was about to put her foot down, she felt her vision darken, and she saw that the wide stone steps under her feet were shrouded in thick black energy.

Hands that were covered in rotten pus kept waving in the black energy. They looked like evil spirits from hell trying to grab onto something and escape from underneath.

On the contrary, the others did not show any signs of unusualness.

Chiba Yoshiko cried out in shock and retreated immediately. She looked at Ye Chen in fear, “Master…”

“It’s just an illusion. It’s nothing!”

Ye Chen smiled lightly. He lifted his legs and walked over first. He ignored the rotten hands that were oozing with pus. Chiba Yoshiko gritted her teeth and followed him immediately.

“It seems like Hidemoto Chiho wants to stop me from going further!”

Ye Chen pondered as he walked, ‘I just can’t figure this out. If she wants to stop me, why did she only create an illusion? Does she really think that a mere illusion can scare me?’

He did not understand the question until he reached the end of the stone steps. Other than the illusion, there was nothing special about the whole process.

What greeted his eyes was a majestic and ancient building that stood at the peak of the mountain. It was probably a shrine built by the Hidemoto clan.

In the eyes of the Japanese, the so-called shrine was a temple to the gods of God Dao. It was similar to the temples in the East.

Countless devotees slowly walked into the shrine with incense in their hands.

In Chiba Yoshiko’s eyes, everything had changed. It was broad daylight, but the shrine before her could not be seen clearly. It was as if she was in a black fog.

In Particular, there was a statue erected in the center of the shrine. It was a huge toad with its face facing the entrance.

Before the believers in the shrine walked past the statue, they would be sucked into the statue’s mouth.

Those who walked past the statue would have an ugly expression on their faces, but it could not be seen with the naked eye.

“Master, w-why don’t we go back? This place is t-too scary!” Chiba Yoshiko was so scared that her legs went weak.

Ye Chen witnessed everything and was secretly shocked, “Gathering the believers’ essence energy? A small, barbaric country actually knows how to refine essence and qi into Dao?”

At that moment, the door of the shrine slowly opened. Subsequently, three pale old men in black robes walked out slowly.

The leading old man was holding a tray, and there was something covered by a red cloth. The strange thing was, when the three old men passed by some of the believers, they ignored them and walked past them.

Chiba Yoshiko’s pretty face changed when she saw the three of them walking toward them. She could not help but lean toward Ye Chen by instinct. She was secretly nervous.

“Greetings, the powerhouse from China!”

The three of them stopped when they reached Ye Chen. They bowed to Ye Chen at the same time. There was no hostility on their faces.

Before Ye Chen could speak, the leading old man said slowly, “The esteemed Chinese overlord, I think our family has some misunderstanding with you. Therefore, we’ve specially prepared this gift for you!”

After that, he slowly removed the red cloth on the tray.

Chiba Yoshiko screamed in shock.

A bloody head stood on the tray!

The human head’s eyes were wide opened as if it had died with grievance.

The eyes were filled with bloodstains!
