Lu Chenzhou had already guessed the intention of this woman:
"Senior, have you co for Yagyu Ichiro?"
Yagyu Shizuka nodded and spoke in a rather respectful tone:
"Yes, Mr. Lu, you can call Shizuka or Heavenly Sword."
"You two can co inside and have a seat."
"Thank you, Mr. Lu."
Inside the house.
Lu Chenzhou made tea.
Grandmaster Duan, who had a good relationship with him, sat down without formalities.
The female Sword Master did not imdiately sit down. Instead, she bowed deeply and said:
"Mr. Lu, I apologize! Because of a traitor in our family, you had a bad experience!"
Under the eaves, one has to bow their head.
The Yagyu family was one of the seven major powers in Sakura.
But in Da Xia, it was nothing.
The foundation of even an average top-level Martial Arts University here could rival the entire Sakura island.
Even the combined strength of the Sakura Seven Demon Swords was not enough to fill the teeth of the Cangtian Dragon King.
And the young man before her, was favored by the Dragon King, was a disciple of the Heavenly King, and the top student of a top-level Martial Arts University!
This identity far surpassed her, one of the top geniuses of Sakura.
Even though she was a Sword Master, she didn’t dare to put on airs.
This was the first ti Lu Chenzhou received such a grand salute from a Grandmaster Expert.
To be honest, it felt quite pleasant...
If it were a Grandmaster from Da Xia giving him such a salute, he might feel terrified.
But a Grandmaster from another country, he enjoyed it.
In Da Xia, I am humble and submissive, but in Sakura, I strike with full force!
After the bow, Yagyu Shizuka got straight to the point:
"Mr. Lu, the Yagyu family wants to retrieve Yagyu Ichiro’s body and the famous sword [Snow Woman Cut]."
As she spoke, she took out a quaint little dicine box.
Opening the lid, a peculiar fragrance filled the air.
Inside the box was a fruit the size of a chicken egg.
It was transparent like jade, with a faint golden light flickering.
The core was diamond-shaped, radiating golden qi flow.
The void trembled, and faintly, there was a sound of tal clashing.
Lu Chenzhou recalled the "Heavenly Treasure Map," but he had never seen such a treasure.
Based on the phenona it emitted, it was likely a Xuan Grade treasure.
The cheapest Xuan Grade treasures cost tens of thousands of battle rits.
Seeing the slight sparkle in Lu Chenzhou’s eyes, Yagyu Shizuka said:
"Mr. Lu, this is the [Heavenly Cloud Fruit], a Xuan Grade treasure unique to Sakura. After refining, it can nurture an [Innate Congyun Treasure Qi] within your body, accelerating True Qi production and tempering it to be extrely sharp, capable of cutting through all things."
After saying that, she took out another box.
Upon opening it, there were golden bars inside.
"This, needless to say... it is our compensation gift."
Lu Chenzhou glanced over and smiled:
"Deal."
The gold alone was worth over a billion.
The Xuan Grade treasure fruit was invaluable; even his current wealth couldn’t afford it.
Yagyu Shizuka bowed and handed over the treasures with both hands.
Lu Chenzhou then returned the body of the man in black and the Snow Woman Cut.
Seeing Yagyu Ichiro’s intact appearance but internally turned into blood, Yagyu Shizuka felt a chill in her heart.
"Spiritual annihilation?"
Only a Great Grandmaster or higher of the Po Suo Spiritual Practitioners could wield such an invisible killing thod.
With a single thought, disintegrate the enemy on a cellular level with spiritual power.
This kind of death, even immortals couldn’t save.
Most terrifyingly, most physical defenses were ineffective against spiritual annihilation.
So Divine Armor was useless.
To resist spiritual annihilation, there were only two thods.
One was to protect with a Spiritual Artifact.
The other was to have sufficiently strong Martial Arts Will and spiritual power to resist spiritual shock.
This made Yagyu Shizuka extrely amazed.
It seed that this mysterious Mr. Lu had strong backers from the Po Suo Ancient Country.
Otherwise, with his cultivation, even if his spiritual power was extraordinary, he couldn’t possibly use spiritual annihilation.
That damn Yagyu Ichiro actually dared to assassinate such a person?
He really brought trouble to the family!
But it’s good, at least this nace was dealt with, and her father could be at ease.
After so small talk, before leaving,
Yagyu Shizuka bowed deeply to Lu Chenzhou again: "Thank you for your understanding, Mr. Lu. On behalf of my family, I am here to support the Million Mountains and will settle in the beautiful Spring City. I hope that the Yagyu family and I can beco friends with you in the future."
She left, wearing wooden clogs and carrying her sword.
Lu Chenzhou smiled inwardly:
"Clearly, they ca to Da Xia seeking protection..."
As far as he knew, apart from Da Xia, the Po Suo Ancient Country, and the Silver Eagle Federation, few countries had Absolute Peak overseers.
The current situation in other nations was grim, all on the brink of destruction.
In the past, major nations could intervene to help when smaller ones struggled.
But now, even the major nations are struggling to defend themselves, consolidating their defenses.
These countries, especially so island nations, were destined to beco demon ghost paradises.
This was the importance of an Absolute Peak; when the sky falls, the ceiling holds it up.
Otherwise, a single Demon Venerable could annihilate a country in a short ti.
...
Spring City.
Yagyu Shizuka cremated her family mber’s body and placed the ashes in an urn.
She caressed the [Snow Woman Cut].
"Mother..."
Though this sword was only a low-class Divine Weapon, it was her deceased mother’s sword.
Otherwise, the Yagyu family wouldn’t have made such a fuss to find the traitor.
When Yagyu Ichiro betrayed years ago, his victims included her mother, whom he killed to seize this sword.
The phone rang, and Yagyu Xuanyi’s voice ca through:
"Have you retrieved the Snow Woman Cut?"
"Yes, I have."
After a brief silence, Yagyu Xuanyi’s weary and complex voice said:
"Take good care of it. The Snow Woman Cut, the Child’s Cut, the Itsumaden Cut, the Wheel of Reincarnation Cut, and the Heavenly Dog Cut, when the [Yagyu Five Cuts] are combined and supplented with [Yunxuan Spirit Water], can be reforged into our ancestor’s dream of surpassing top-level blades: the [Orochi Cut].
