Almighty Genius

"Hattori Hisanari" was rather courteous and didn't seem the least bit angry. Instead, he was very magnanimous in letting people go, showing no intention of stopping Yuriko.

"Farewell..."

Even Yuriko felt quite surprised. She had heard some things about Hattori Hisanari and thought she would at least suffer a little difficulty before leaving. Unexpectedly, "Hattori Hisanari" was so easy to talk to, which was truly unexpected.

However, she was here under orders and didn't want to delay any more time here, so she promptly bid farewell to "Hattori Hisanari" and walked out with the unconscious unlucky kid. She quickly disappeared from "Hattori Hisanari's" sight.

"Hattori Hisanari"—or rather, Qin Fang—finally withdrew his gaze slowly, his expression becoming quite deep, with a strange smile on his lips.

"Get out here..."

However, instead of returning to the box to drink, Qin Fang shouted coolly in an utterly indifferent tone.

Soon, two sneaky figures emerged from the side; they were Kawada Masami and Saburo Kohara...

The two had embarrassed looks on their faces, seemingly quite ashamed and extremely awkward, standing shiveringly in front of Qin Fang, not even daring to speak.

The Yuriko just now didn't know that Qin Fang wasn't actually Hattori Hisanari, but these two were aware. Qin Fang wasn't even Fusang, so how could he possibly be the Iga School's genius expert Hattori Hisanari?

And among these two, Kawada Masami knew even more...

But the reason these two were scared was precisely because they knew too much. Their eyes were filled with fear as they looked at Qin Fang, afraid that provoking this man would bring them more than just trouble, perhaps even costing their lives...

"Some things are best kept buried..."

Qin Fang merely glanced at these two faintly and then calmly mumbled this, as if not addressing them directly, yet the pair understood the meaning behind it well.

"Understood, understood!"

The more one knows, the faster one dies; Kawada Masami and Saburo Kohara both understood this clearly. To preserve their necks, they hurriedly expressed their agreement, eager to show their sincerity to Qin Fang.

"I've lost interest, let's go back..."

With this commotion, Qin Fang's interest had dissipated considerably, and he said rather disinterestedly, stepping towards the exit.

"Kohara, handle this..."

However, when passing by Saburo Kohara, Qin Fang paused slightly, scaring Saburo Kohara so much that his entire body trembled and his legs wobbled.

Fortunately, what awaited him wasn't a lethal blow from Qin Fang, but rather a very mundane instruction, which made Saburo Kohara breathe a sigh of relief.

Only, when Saburo Kohara looked at those kimono-clad beauties in the box, his gaze was anything but kind...

Qin Fang noticed this but didn't comment further; he wasn't a saint who forbade all killings. Seeing enough dark deeds, he couldn't be bothered to intervene.

Having no more mood to hang around and play, Qin Fang was courteously sent back to the hotel by Kawada Masami, and by this time, Qin Zi had also completed the fusion with the Earth Ninja Token, officially advancing to the Grandmaster level.

"Grandmaster Mid-Stage? Not bad, not bad..."

The Earth Ninja Token obtained from a half-step Grandmaster-level expert like Miyamoto Musashi was indeed extraordinary. After Qin Zi fused with it, she directly advanced to Grandmaster Mid-Stage, a truly amazing result.

Of course, if Qin Zi's previous strength had reached the Grandmaster level, it's possible she might have advanced to Master Level Late-Stage or even Master Level Peak...

However, Qin Fang didn't feel much regret. After all, their team was only of this level, and with Qin Zi becoming a Grandmaster-level expert, an Earth Nin within the ninja hierarchy, it added a significant amount of strength to Qin Fang's side, which satisfied him greatly.

"With another Grandmaster-level expert, the next actions... might be a bit easier!"

Looking at the gentle and graceful yet extraordinarily powerful Qin Zi in front of him, Qin Fang's face showed a slightly sinister smile.

An hour later, Qin Fang and Qin Zi quietly left the hotel room without alarming anyone, not even Kawada Masami.

Because Qin Fang had no intention of letting Kawada Masami know what he was going to do, he naturally had to avoid him.

"Master, are we really going to break into the Hokkaido Shrine?"

However, Qin Fang brought Qin Zi out with him, and he didn't hide anything from her, which greatly surprised Qin Zi.

Nowadays, Qin Zi was no longer the poor Japanese girl who was sold to Dragon Country. She was now a dignified Grandmaster-level expert, an Earth Nin, not only terrifying in strength, but also knowledgeable about many matters in the Martial World.

The Hokkaido Shrine might be just a sacrificial site for ordinary Fusang people, but for those in the martial world, it was one of the Six Great Holy Lands.

Of course, the Hokkaido Shrine that Qin Fang intended to infiltrate today was merely a temple within the shrine, not the heart of the Hokkaido Shrine.

"Don't worry. While there are some experts lurking inside, the danger isn't necessarily greater than that of the Musashi School, and might even be lower..."

Qin Fang smiled with indifference, saying confidently. With his Scouting Skill, reconnaissance was a breeze, and if there were real dangers, both he and Qin Zi could easily escape.

"Mm!"

Qin Zi was very obedient, nodding immediately and saying nothing more. In her eyes, Qin Fang was her master, her everything, and every word he spoke was treated like a decree to be followed unconditionally.

Thus, under the cover of night, Qin Fang and Qin Zi quietly approached the centuries-old Hokkaido Shrine located in the central zone.

As for Qin Fang's purpose this time... it was primarily to probe the current defense strength of this temple.

Of course, if the conditions allowed, Qin Fang wouldn't mind doing something rather audacious... like kidnapping the Holy Woman of a Holy Land!

Indeed, that was what Qin Fang intended to do, and he even planned to be more ruthless!

And the purpose?

Qin Fang was currently impersonating Hattori Hisanari, and if he succeeded, it would be a sensational event in the entire Fusang martial world!

"Not an easy task..."

Of course, this was just an initial plan for Qin Fang, and truly accomplishing it would require relentless effort...

After all, although the Hokkaido Shrine was the weakest among the Six Great Holy Lands under the Dao Shen Sect, it was still a holy land, with a considerable number of experts.

This Miss Sakura, able to become the Holy Woman and a candidate for the Great Priest aiming for the highest divine seat, was definitely not a simple woman herself.

For Qin Fang to abduct such a woman from within the Hokkaido Shrine, the difficulty was imaginable...

Yet, difficult didn't mean there was no chance at all. At least Qin Fang, after facing and defeating many formidable opponents until now... each seemed an impossible task before being accomplished, but Qin Fang completed them all; this time would be no exception!

With the cover of night and Qin Fang's near-Grandmaster-level Stealth Skill, combined with Qin Zi, an Earth Nin at the Grandmaster-level Tier, the two effortlessly scaled the low walls of the Hokkaido Shrine and infiltrated it...

It was unclear whether the Hokkaido Shrine was too self-assured or if these people were overly confident. Qin Fang and Qin Zi found, upon entering, that there was hardly any decent defense force present; their entry was remarkably easy...(To be continued.
