Chapter 335 The Traitor in Black of Great Xia
Chapter 335 The Traitor in Black of Great Xia
Upon seeing this, the man in black looked behind him and saw that the entire national treasury had become completely empty.
Seeing this, he couldn't help but blurt out a phrase from the Great Xia Dynasty: "Damn it!"
Then he looked toward the tunnel that the excavator had dug.
"Oh no! There's a traitor in the Japanese Imperial Palace! What are you all doing? In such a short time, from digging the tunnel to moving the entire national treasury, it would take hundreds or even thousands of people working together to complete this. Didn't you hear a single sound last night?"
The man in black ignored everything and shouted insults at the soldiers around him.
But no matter how much he yelled and cursed, the soldiers present just looked at each other, and none of them dared to answer.
"Who was on duty here last night? Step forward!"
The dark figure asked the group of people in front of him menacingly.
After a long while, an older soldier stepped forward and said, "General, those who were on duty last night are all there... they're all there."
After saying that, the older sergeant pointed to the mangled corpse on the ground.
The shadowy figure looked and thought, "Well, there's no need to hold them accountable. The guards who were on duty last night were turned into a pile of minced meat during the first explosion."
He then drew his longsword from his waist: "You few, take care of the Emperor. The rest of you, follow me out of the palace to meet the enemy!"
At his command, everyone except the group that had previously surrounded Kato Kagami, who had just rushed over to rescue him, grabbed their weapons and followed the dark figure as they ran away.
You don't understand the situation outside until you go out, but once you go out, the shadowy figure's heart skipped a beat.
He recalled what Chu Chen had said in the court earlier: "We have powerful weapons, but we didn't bring them into the capital."
At that moment, as he watched the strange weapon with a trail of smoke flying into the palace, he instantly felt a sense of dread.
Wherever this thing goes, it causes a violent explosion.
What was harvested was not only the lives of those in the palace, but also the houses and palaces, which were all blown to pieces.
But in an instant, his eyes were fixed on the outside of the palace, in the direction where Chu Yi and the others were.
Because those things with trailing smoke in their tails all flew over from that place.
So he pushed his speed to the limit and shouted as he headed towards where Chu Yi and the others were.
"You audacious scoundrel, how dare you attack my Japanese Imperial Palace! Whether you are human or demon, you shall pay with your life!"
Chu Chen watched the black figure from outside, a smile playing on his lips, and instantly rushed towards the direction from which it was coming.
At the same time, with a wave of his hand, the Tetanus Blade appeared in his hand.
"Haha, you little black dumpling, your target is me."
As the shadowy figure was rushing forward, he suddenly saw Chu Chen wielding a rusty, ugly knife, slashing towards him.
He dared not be careless. The person in front of him was an eighth-rank expert from the Great Xia Dynasty. If this slash hit him, he would either die or lose his fighting ability.
He abruptly stopped in his tracks, and with a swift swing of his longsword, deflected Chu Chen's ugly blade.
"Tell me, how did you escape from that national treasury? And who was the spy you planted in Japan?"
Chu Chen shook his wrist, which was still a little numb from the shock.
"Hmm, not bad. I've never heard of anyone in Japan with such skill. If I'm not mistaken, you're from Great Xia!"
"Stop talking nonsense, kid. Hand over the list of spies, and I can give you a quick death."
Chu Chen was too lazy to waste words with him, and instead took a shotgun from his back.
When dealing with experts, this thing is incredibly effective at close range.
"Hmph, if you want to fight, then fight! Stop with all the nonsense! Watch my deadly barrage of words!"
The shadowy figure looked at Chu Chen as he took out a dark stick and seemed puzzled.
But this did not prevent him from preparing for the attack.
Just as Chu Chen uttered the deadly combo, he stood his longsword upright and charged towards Chu Chen.
But the more he charged, the more uneasy he felt. The kid in front of him, seeing his fierce attack, didn't even bother to prepare a fighting stance. Could there be a trap here?
Although he had thought of it, he was still a step too late, because he saw the dark stick in Chu Chen's hand make a loud noise.
He then discovered numerous bloody holes on his legs, and his legs couldn't support his weight, causing him to fall face-first to Chu Chen.
Immediately afterwards, he felt a sharp pain in his lower body, so intense that he couldn't muster any strength at all.
Seeing that he had been shot down, Chu Chen quickly put away his shotgun, then took out a pair of handcuffs to restrain him, and carried him into a house.
Chu Chen tossed the man in black into a corner of the room, then pulled a dagger from behind his back and walked towards him.
"Young Master Chu, what are you doing? You can't kill me..."
"Hehe, oh, I can't kill you, give me a reason!"
As Chu Chen spoke, he pressed the dagger against Chu Chen's neck.
"I...I...I am a Great Xia person, Great Xia people don't kill Great Xia people!"
As the shadowy figure watched Chu Chen's dagger getting closer and closer, it immediately screamed in fright.
Chu Chen thought to himself that, just as he expected, even Tora-tani Yuto, who came from a special Daxia language school, could not speak as fluently as this man in black.
But he didn't stop what he was doing; he took the opportunity to cut open the black cloth wrapped around his head.
"Holy crap, what the hell are you?!"
After the hood was removed, an extremely ugly face was revealed, covered in scars, with not a single patch of healthy skin to be found.
Only the eyes revealed that it was a humanoid animal.
Chu Chen put down the dagger, dragged over a box, sat down in front of him, and asked with interest, "Tell me your story, and also, where is this thing? I might consider sparing your life!"
The dark figure looked at the emerald green jade in Chu Chen's hand, avoiding Chu Chen's gaze.
After a long silence, he seemed to have mustered up a great deal of courage to speak.
"I can tell you all of this. Furthermore, the jade you saw in the Japanese treasury is just a drop in the ocean; the vast majority is hidden elsewhere!"
After saying that, he shut his mouth and quietly looked at Chu Chen.
"Tell me your conditions!" Chu Chen asked immediately, seeing his expression.
"Take care of someone!"
"Alone? Who?"
"You must promise me first. I know my body is so badly injured that even if you let me go, Kato Yan will not let me live. You can only get this information if you promise me."
Upon hearing this, Chu Chen thought to himself that it was not bad. Knowing that he was going to die anyway, he might as well use these jade stones to exchange for something of value.
Without thinking, he blurted out to the man in black in front of him, "Okay, I agree. Go ahead and say it! But you'd better tell me the truth. I'm not only good at taking care of people, but I'm also a professional at killing."
