Chapter 866 Undercurrents Surging
"All I can say is that you have terrible acting. From the moment you promised to be my ve and help
me to hunt down Mochizuki Kawa, I could tell that you didn''t do it wholeheartedly. It was all just acting.
You want to take me to Tokyo and lead me into a trap at Sword Shrine, right?" said Ye Fan calmly as he
smiled with his hands behind him.
He nced teasingly at the young woman before him.
At the get-go, Ye Fan already knew that she was just pretending to submit to him, and it was all a part
of a trap that Mochizuki Kawa had set.
However, Ye Fan didn''t blow her cover.
He didn''t care.
In his eyes, schemes like these were just child''s y.
It was particrly ineffective in the face of true power.
Nothing could be trusted throughout time and space except himself.
Only power mattered!
And power was Ye Fan''s greatest pride.
Suzumiya Eigetsu hung her head while Ye Fan''s calm words echoed through the air.
She lowered her eyes without saying a word.
Sunlight shone in from outside the window and fell on her, casting a shadow on the floor.
In an instant, the young woman began tremble.
Before she knew it, tears had already trickled down from her face.
She hung her head and wept as she said, "Master, I''m sorry I lied. I''m sorry."
Tears cascaded down Suzumiya Eigetsu''s face as she kept apologizing.
Ye Fan shook his head and said calmly, "Don''t apologize. There is no right or wrong. We are just
standing on the opposite sides. Mochizuki Kawa is your master, so that makes me your enemy. You are
not to me for lying to me or even killing me. But I don''t understand. You should have been more than
happy to lead me to Sword Shrine from the minute we reached Tokyo, so why are you stalling for time
here?"
Ye Fan was quite curious.
In reality, Ye Fan didn''t hate Suzumiya Eigetsu.

On the contrary, Ye Fan liked her a little.
During this short span of time, Ye Fan could tell that Suzumiya Eigetsu was a rather innocent young
woman.
She was a bad actress and liar since everything was written on her face.
She was innocent and candid, just like a piece of untarnished white paper.
She only lied to Ye Fan on Mochizuki
Kawa''s orders, so Ye Fan didn''t me her.
However, Suzumiya Eigetsu continued to hang her head despite Ye Fan''s questions.
"I...I..." stammered Suzumiya Eigetsu hesitantly as she gritted her teeth.
Then she finally said, "I...I don''t want you to die. Master, can you not go? All three Sword Shrine Head
Priests have gathered, and they are waiting for you to walk into their trap. It''s impossible for you to kill
my teacher, and you will even end up getting killed." Suzumiya Eigetsu choked as she persuaded him.
Ye Fan killed both her senpais and hurt her master, Mochizuki Kawa, so she ought to hate him.
However, Suzumiya Eigetsu didn''t know why she couldn''t bear to hate Ye Fan at all.
Instead, she felt inexplicably emotional towards Ye Fan.
Ye Fan was somewhat stunned to hear this.
He didn''t think that Suzumiya Eigetsu would start caring about his well-being.
If Mochizuki Kawa saw this, he would probably throw a fit and die.
Ye Fanughed sadly. "Don''t worry. Since I dared toe alone, I am confident that I can leave
unscathed. One Sword Shrine means nothing to me. The only person I look up to is the number one
Japanese martial artist, Yukiteru Tenshin. I am afraid of no one else.”
Ye Fan shook his head as he spoke.
Even then, Suzumiya Eigetsu didn''t want to take Ye Fan to Mochizuki Kawa.
"Master, why don''t we go after a few days? Keep mepany for a few more days?"
Suzumiya Eigetsu looked at Ye Fan with her big misty eyes as tears welled up in them.
Ye Fan didn''t know why Suzumiya Eigetsu was so persistent. However, he agreed.
"But we can only hang out for one day. Tomorrow, I will go to Sword Shrine with or without you," said Ye
Fan deeply.
Suzumiya Eigetsu nodded and instantly smiled. "Thank you, Master."
However, Ye Fan failed to notice the inexplicable sense of sorrow in Suzumiya Eigetsu''s eyes.
Meanwhile, in Tokyo.
Inside Sword Shrine.
Most of Mochizuki Kawa''s injuries had recovered after he recuperated for several days.
He was having a meeting with the other Sword Shrine head priests in the hall.
There were three head priests in Sword Shrine altogether.
Since Mochizuki Kawa was the strongest head priest, he was the leader of Sword
Shrine.
"Sword God, how are your injuries?”
The woman who spoke was dressed in finery and appeared elegant.
And she was Sword Shrine''s third head priest, Nakai Masami.
Mochizuki Kawa waved his hand. "I''m fine."
"That''s good. But I didn''t think that a nobody from China was capable of hurting you. And now, he has
shockinglye to Japan. Now that he is here, he can forget about leaving. The three of us will ensure
that the brat never lives to see his homnd again!"
The second Sword Shrine head priest, Ishino Ryuichi, spoke coldly in a chilly tone.
"Oh yes, Sword God. Did Eigetsu-chan contact you yet? Where is that brat? My sword is hungry for
some action," asked Ishino Ryuichi again as heughed sinisterly.
Mochizuki Kawa shook his head. "Not yet. But she ought to in a matter of days. Stay sharp in the
meantime. When Ye Fan turns up, we take things forward as nned, and I will seek revenge that the
humiliation he served me in Jiangdong!"
Mochizuki Kawa spoke icily with hatred oozing from his voice.
Ishino Ryuichi and Nakai Masami nodded.
"But don''t forget that Eigetsu-chan is turning 18 soon. Back in the day, Yukiteru Tenshin once said that
Tsukuyomi Tenshin would return when shees of age. The 18 year old seal in Eigetsu-chan''s body
is about to unlock itself. We have to take her back from the brat before her birthday," said Nakai
Masami softly when she suddenly recalled this.
"Don''t worry. I know. Everything is within my grasp, so there will be no problems. After the brat dies, we
will start nning the god awakening ceremony and prepare for Tsukuyomi Tenshin''s return!"
