y's bet was seen by everyone, and just now the president and general manager also witnessed it."In broad daylight, with so many witnesses around, aren't you going to deny it anymore"Uh..."For some rea...The black bear yokai panicked and sped away at an incredible rate, but in the end, it couldn't escape Ye Bufan's grasp. A golden beam shot out from the Meteor Thunder Gourd.

Though powerful, these ancient beast souls are insignificant against the might of Heaven's Thunder.

Ye Bufan used only a thin thread, as thick as a finger, of lightning power, but it instantly turned the black smoke into nothingness.

The Takeda family's thousand-year-old shikigami were utterly erased.

"You..."

Takeda Ryosuke suddenly felt a chill down his spine. He never expected that the trump cards he had brought out from the bottom of his family's drawer would be so easily defeated in front of him.

Before he could finish his words, Ye Bufan's true essence hand shot out, grasping him directly in the palm of his hand and pulling him forward.

"Spare my life, and I will tell you everything..."

At this moment, Takeda Ryōfu couldn't care less about the elder's dignity and immediately bowed his head in apology.

He was very clear that the young man in front of him was far more powerful than he had imagined, capable of crushing him with a mere flick of his finger.

"You were given a chance, but you didn't cherish it."

Ye Bufan was too lazy to waste words with him. He reached out and pressed on the Baihui acupoint on top of his head, performing a soul-searching technique.

After a moment, he flicked his wrist, tossing the vacant-eyed Ryuzo Takeda to the ground. He frowned slightly.

"No, not even he knows."

Ye Bufan shook his head. The soul-searching technique had yielded a lot of information just now. It was indeed the Takeda clan who had abducted Lu Banxia and Watanabe Keiyuki, but their whereabouts were unknown.

Even the head elder of the family didn't know about this, which shows how secretive the Takeda clan was about this matter.

Liu Yun said, "What should we do"

"It's simple, if the Great Elder doesn't know, then just ask the Head of the Family."

Since this was the doing of the Takeda clan, if we just capture their head, we'll know everything.

As soon as Ye Bufan's words left his mouth, a figure shot out of the hall and fled into the distance.

This is a figure of an elderly man with white hair, yet he moves with incredible agility and speed. It is none other than the head of the Takeda clan, Takeda Shingen.

Beside

were many members of the Takeda clan, all looking dumbfounded. What was the head of the family doing Was he fleeing

For many of them, the head of household is a god in their hearts, an invincible being.

Shouldn't we stand our ground when there are foreign invaders Why choose to flee instead

If Oda Nobunaga knew what everyone was thinking, he would surely curse them.

He also wants to step up and save his family in a critical moment, becoming a god that everyone admires.

But so many elders were slain, the Grand Elder was crippled, the formation was broken, and even the spirit gods were erased.

Faced with such a formidable enemy, what other outcome could there be besides death

Because he saw everything so clearly, he chose to run away directly.

But even fleeing before a strong person is a luxury. This guy had just run hundreds of meters when suddenly a figure flashed in front of him, and Ye Bufan appeared before him.

“Who...who are you”

Takeda Shingen stopped in his tracks, swallowing hard. It was clear he had underestimated the opponent's ferocity.

"If you want to know who I am, you're not worthy."

Ye Bufan coldly said a word, and directly reached out to grab it.

Takeda Shingen wanted to resist, but then he was astonished to discover that his true energy was being suppressed completely, not even able to move a finger, let alone rebel.

With a look of terror in his eyes, Ye Bufan pressed his right hand against the top of his head and once again used the soul-searching technique.

After a few breaths, Takeda Shingen was flung out, his entire body exploding in a burst of blood mist.

Liu Yun asked again, “Master, how is it Have you heard any news about Miss Banxia”

"Got it"

Yè Bùfán obtained a lot of information from Takeda Nobunaga's mind and understood the whole event clearly.

The Takeda clan was the first family in Daiin country a hundred years ago. The reason they faded into obscurity was because they came across a sheepskin scroll containing a major secret by chance.

In the land of Great Dogs, legends of Yamata no Orochi have always existed. Before this, everyone believed it to be just a myth, a fabricated story.

According to that ancient scroll, all of this is true. The eight-headed serpent god truly existed, but due to the severe injuries it sustained back then, it fell into a deep slumber.

And this scroll clearly records the method to awaken it. Whoever awakens Hakusou no Kami once again will be able to control the entire world.

The Takeda clan was originally a very ambitious family, and its head, Takeda Shingen, even more so.

After receiving the message, he secretly went to the Flying Fish Island recorded in the sheepskin scroll, where he truly found the sleeping Eight-Forked Deity.

The so-called "great god" is merely a product of the exaggeration and worship by people in the Great Dog Kingdom. In fact, it is just an eight-headed serpent called Yamata no Orochi, a ferocious beast passed down from ancient times.

Now, the ambition of Takeda Shingen flared bright. He didn't just want to be the master of Kai Province; he yearned to rule the entire world.

From then on, the Takeda clan vanished from sight, fading into obscurity. All they had to do was one thing: awaken Yamata no Orochi according to the scroll's instructions.

But the process is extremely difficult, and the treasures mentioned in the scroll that could awaken a great god are undoubtedly incredibly rare and precious.

As a result, despite the Takeda clan's many years of effort, their results were limited. At this rate, it would take at least another hundred or two centuries to awaken the sleeping Yamata no Orochi.

But man is no match for heaven. At this very moment, the earth suddenly experienced a resurgence of spiritual energy, instantly accelerating the progress of the Takeda family.

Not only did the cultivation of the family masters advance rapidly, but the eight-headed serpent also entered a state of rapid awakening.

Three days ago, this ancient beast that had been sleeping for an unknown number of years suddenly showed signs of waking up, which made the Takeda family extremely excited.

According to the scroll, it was time to prepare the offerings.

As long as the great deity awakens and obtains enough offerings, it will be grateful to the Takeda family and fulfill their requests.

Then the Takeda clan launched a surprise attack on the Watanabe clan, capturing all of their strong warriors as offerings.

But that wasn't enough. They set their sights on Lu Banxia, who possessed the rare Wuling body. They believed that offering such a body as a sacrifice would surely win the favor of the gods.

What happened afterward was exactly as Liu Yun said. They kidnapped Lü Banxia and are now taking her to Feiyu Island with the strong warriors of the Watanabe family.

The matter was kept so secret that even the Grand Elder didn't know about it. Everything was handled by the next heir to the head of the family, Takeda Nobutada’s son, Takeda Yoshikatsu.

Upon learning the truth, Ye Bufan was furious and immediately killed Takeda Shingen.

Liu Yun, after hearing a brief summary of the situation, became extremely anxious. "Master, then let's hurry to Feiyu Island and rescue Miss Banxia!"

There's still time, let's go somewhere first.

According to Nobunaga Oda's recollection, it would take half a day for Yamata no Orochi to fully awaken. At his speed, he could make it to the Flying Fish Island in time. There was another important matter that needed attending to right now.

After he finished speaking, his body swiftly descended and walked toward the main hall of the Takeda clan.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!ad to be dealt with carefully."Allow me to introduce myself, sir. I wonder what your esteemed name may be."He wore a kind smile, looking extremely approachable, as if he had met an old friend after ma...
