Chapter 1428: Chapter 1477: Doubts and Analysis
Koboto Kobayashi didn’t dare to tip off Li Yifei either. After all, in comparison, Li Yifei was terrifying, but the Martial God Yanagio Inujiro from Japan was an even more frightening figure. Since mastering his skills, this man had never faced defeat in Japan, defeating all challengers and then going into seclusion. People around Koboto Kobayashi’s age had only heard of his legends and had never even seen him in person.
If he offended Li Yifei, Koboto Kobayashi could still hide. Offending Yanagio Inujiro, there was nowhere to hide in all of Japan. As for fleeing overseas, he would have to abandon his roots in Japan, so he chose silence, pretending ignorance, pretending to be a useless person.
But as soon as Li Yifei called, he imdiately forgot the excuses he had prepared earlier and just admitted his mistake directly.
His silence directly caused Li Yifei to find out about ng Xiaofei’s kidnapping, wasting so many days investigating leads.
Li Yifei didn’t even need to ask to understand the trickery involved. He temporarily refrained from scolding Koboto Kobayashi and instead turned to ask, "What about now? I already know. Are you still going to pretend you don’t know and keep it hidden?"
"No, how could that be? But what I know is limited as well. All I know is that Yanagio Inujiro seems very angry about what you did last ti, or he was invited out by Motoharu. If it’s the latter, I’m in danger too. If it’s the forr, it seems I don’t end up with any benefit either. With the help of Yanagio Inujiro, Motoharu is becoming very arrogant, massively expanding his workforce, and doesn’t listen to my orders at all. There’s even a hint of wanting to replace
because Yanagio Inujiro is just too powerful..."
"Are you saying you don’t know more than I do?"
"No... I can help you ask, but I’m really at a loss right now. I admit it was my fault for not informing you in advance, but..."
"Then go ask. I’ll wait for your news. Whatever Yanagio Inujiro wants to do, if he wants to deal with , he should co directly to . Kidnapping my family, that’s just too low. Forget it. Just investigate this one thing."
Koboto Kobayashi nodded vigorously like a pecking chicken, saying, "No problem. I’ll risk everything to find out the other party’s purpose for you."
Li Yifei gave a cold laugh and hung up. Koboto Kobayashi, hearing the busy tone on the phone, wiped the sweat off his forehead and sat weakly on the ground as if he had run ten thousand ters.
anwhile, Li Yifei, holding the phone with furrowed brows, was dazed for two to three minutes before he quickly found a number and called Murong Yuanqing.
Murong Yuanqing answered the call and even made a joke, saying, "So, have you found a way to beco a man again?"
Hearing his tease, Li Yifei gave a bitter smile and said, "Elder Murong, please don’t mock the younger generation. The junior has encountered another difficult problem."
Murong Yuanqing’s expression beca serious upon hearing this. Any difficulty that Li Yifei encountered was truly a difficulty; otherwise, given his disposition, he wouldn’t be calling for help. Murong Yuanqing understood Li Yifei well enough to know that he wouldn’t easily ask for help.
"Tell , what is the difficulty?"
Li Yifei then recounted the events from yesterday to today. Upon hearing that Li Yifei had started a war with the Lin family again, Murong Yuanqing wanted to laugh and say, "You really are restless, aren’t you? How does it feel to fight against several major families at the sa ti?" But when he heard that Japanese Ninjas had co to Huaxia again, Murong Yuanqing’s expression beca serious. His identity and existence were akin to a guardian deity of Huaxia in so aspects, so he was naturally concerned upon hearing about the invasion of barbarians.
Upon hearing that Li Yifei actually fought against two experts with Innate Vital Energy, Murong Yuanqing’s expression changed slightly, and he quickly pursued, "Two Innate Experts, and male too? How is that possible? There are only two of those experts in Japan, they can’t both have co... Wait, you also said you defeated those two, which makes it even stranger. Those two individuals beca famous over decades, and fighting just one could likely result in your loss..."
Murong Yuanqing was well aware of Li Yifei’s strength, one of the strongest in his generation, but still lacking compared to those two well-established Japanese experts. Hearing him finish, Murong Yuanqing imdiately beca skeptical.
Li Yifei grunted in response, saying, "Yeah, I also feel sothing’s not right. When I fought them, they exhibited the strength of Innate Experts, but after engaging in battle, it beca apparent that these two ninjas were re posers. One only knew to fight brutishly, and the other, a chubby fellow, had excellent agility but average sword skills. It felt mismatched, and their overall capabilities were low. Such individuals could easily overwhelm many ordinary people, but when truly faced with experts, their weaknesses would quickly be exposed."
After Li Yifei finished speaking, he also thought of Jiang Ningxiang at ho. She possessed Innate Vital Energy but wasn’t very strong either, which was a similar principle.
The strange thing was that these two Innate Experts were n, which was what aroused Li Yifei’s suspicion.
Murong Yuanqing grinned and shook his head in denial, "Those two Japanese Ninjas couldn’t possibly be those two experts. If it were them taking action, both you and Xu Shanshan would be in danger!"
Li Yifei then said, "I just found out about sothing. The person actually behind the attack on the Li family this ti is soone nad Yanagio Inujiro, said to be revered as a Martial God in Japan..."
"What! It’s him?" Murong Yuanqing exclaid before Li Yifei could finish. The old man had been at the pinnacle for so many years and rarely showed such surprise.
Li Yifei replied, "The na should be correct. This ti, he had the Yamaguchi Group kidnap my sister. I’m currently having soone investigate him."
"Yifei, you should be cautious about this. Yanagio Inujiro is one of the two super experts I ntioned from Japan, the other being a Japanese monk. Yanagio Inujiro was once a roaming samurai in his early years, known for his bravery and ferocity, having killed countless people. Yet, back in the day in Japan, not only would such a person not face legal punishnt, but they would be revered as a Martial God and worshipped. If he’s causing you trouble... that is indeed a significant problem."
After hearing this, Li Yifei’s lips twitched. When he first heard about this person from Koboto Kobayashi, he hadn’t felt much, but hearing Elder Murong describe this person as formidable moved him slightly. However, this was all it did; Li Yifei wouldn’t develop fear just because his opponent was strong. On the contrary, it only motivated him more.
"Elder Murong, no matter how formidable this person is, I must face him. They’ve captured my sister. Even if it’s a dragon’s den or a tiger’s lair, it won’t stop ."
"Courage is essential, but you must investigate clearly before proceeding. Japan isn’t like Huaxia. It’s not our territory. The opponent can suddenly produce two Innate Experts, and I feel there’s sothing strange about this situation, as it’s too unusual."
"Hmm, that’s precisely why I need to go, at least to clarify the situation. If the Japanese can easily produce Innate Experts, it’s undoubtedly not good news for us."
"What you’ve ntioned is significant. You should inform a few others, and brief them. Talk later; I need to hang up now. Oh, regarding the two Japanese Ninjas you captured, don’t kill them. See if you can extract so information from them."
"I understand. I’ll interrogate them once they wake up."
Only then did Murong Yuanqing hang up. Li Yifei walked back to find Lin Qiong holding two boxed als, which she handed to him and Xu Shanshan.
Lin Qiong opened the boxed al, split the disposable chopsticks, and said to Yifei as she did so, "Honey, sorry for the inconvenience."
Li Yifei took it, saying, "What inconvenience? There are quite a few dishes."
Xu Shanshan also took it, said thank you, and started eating heartily. The two had been busy since yesterday, and hadn’t had a proper al, not even enough water, so Xu Shanshan was very hungry for so ti.
At this point, the matter with the Lin family was almost resolved, but the entire issue wasn’t over yet. After finishing his al, Li Yifei learned that the stocky ninja had woken up, so he greeted Lin Qiong and went to the ward.
Entering the ward, the stocky ninja was struggling, muttering incoherently, while several policen were restraining him. Of course, his limbs were already bound, and his acupoints were sealed by Li Yifei, so the possibility of sudden escape didn’t exist.
Li Yifei walked in expressionlessly and just happened to et the stocky ninja’s eyes. The stocky ninja suddenly deflated and stopped struggling, but he kept glaring at Li Yifei.
Li Yifei walked in, and a few policen nodded in acknowledgnt. Li Yifei said a word of thanks, and they replied that it was no trouble before leaving. These policen deeply respected Li Yifei’s power, especially as they were policen from Mile City, knowing more about Li Yifei’s deeds. Rumor spread among them wildly; so even claid Li Yifei could fly, and others said he was a superman. When executing missions at the border, faced with fierce enemy firepower and advanced weapons that pinned his team down, Li Yifei was said to have suddenly flown out at light speed, reaching the enemy’s base in the blink of an eye and tearing through them barehanded.
So superstitious people even claid Li Yifei was a deity descended from the heavens, his latent powers suddenly awakening, thus his imnse strength.
So went as far as to see Li Yifei as a figure akin to Xiang Yu, possessing unmatched strength, who would undoubtedly be a grand general conquering lands in ancient tis rather than being expelled from the military for a minor mistake and returning to beco a clan chief in the region.
Of course, these policen had a common trait: deep admiration for Li Yifei. Being n themselves, heartfelt policen, they naturally respected strength. Combined with the destructive scene at the Lin family courtyard last night, it left no room for resentnt towards Li Yifei. They felt it was a matter of pride to handle cases for him.
Presumably, those policen who didn’t co would feel envious, casually boasting that they worked with the Li Family Head. "What, you don’t know who the Li Family Head is, you idiot? You know Li Yifei, right? Yes, he’s the Li Family Head, and we’re working alongside this fierce guy."
