Chapter 1227: Kameda Family
Xu Hao smiled and said, "The ancient civilization of Huaya was quite prosperous. It's not an exaggeration to say that strong figures were everywhere, and the people then had extremely open minds. It's entirely possible for them to want to cross the seas to find new opportunities here. In consideration of the fact that you have guarded Senior Zou Yan for two thousand years, I will spare you today."
Xu Hao did not intend to trouble these people. Put yourself in their shoes: anyone would try everything possible to kill the intruder after watching helplessly as the temple they guarded was breached.
However, since Senior Zou Yan was a Huaya person and his treasures were left here, if they remain buried in the tomb, it would be like pearls covered in dust. Xu Hao guessed that if these seven altars were gathered together, they might produce some unexpected results.
Upon hearing that Xu Hao would let them go, Prince Mitford and the others were extremely grateful to Xu Hao.
Xu Hao did not linger here much longer. Having taken the Sun God Altar, the forces like Feisha Association and Lü Family would definitely spread the news.
With so many strong figures around the world, a few might be tempted. Xu Hao wouldn't mind dealing with one or two, but if a large group came to seize it, he would surely be overwhelmed. He is human, after all, not a god. Even the number one expert on the Heavenly List wouldn't dare claim he could single-handedly defeat a dozen experts from the Heavenly List; a group fight would wear him down.
Therefore, Xu Hao must return to Huaya as quickly as possible. In Huaya, foreign experts who want to attack him would have to weigh their strength. If their actions displease the powerful guardian families, even a large number of people would not suffice in escaping their wrath.
The Mengzi Family is one of those guardian families.
But Xu Hao did not pin all his hopes on those guardian families. Once he becomes strong enough or receives new news about the altars, he'll still go to seize them.
The path of martial arts is about competition!
A Martial Artist must dare to compete, and compete with strategy, not blindly!
This is what Xu Hao is thinking now, which is why he is heading to the airport to leave here.
Baxia now looks just like a turtle and can board the plane with Xu Hao.
...
Island Country.
Though the Island Country is not very large, it is highly populated, with dense population concentration.
One of the four major islands is Seven States Island, home to the Kameda family.
Compared to Huaya's five thousand years of civilization, the history of the Island Country is brief.
In the fourth century AD, the Island Country saw the emergence of its first unified government, Yamato, which later started interacting with the Huaya Tang Dynasty, learning its cultural and political systems.
The history of the Kameda family is quite long as well, dating back to the late twelfth century, during the shogunate era, with over eight hundred years of history.
The surname "Kameda" originated because the ancestors of the Kameda family saw a turtle in the fields, thus naming it Kameda.
Outsiders might think it was just a regular turtle, but in truth, only a few members of the Kameda family know the turtle their ancestors saw was a Divine Turtle!
This is a point of pride for them, which is why they take the inheritance of their bloodline very seriously. Consequently, there are not many members of the Kameda family, and they are the only ones in the Island Country with the Kameda name.
At this moment in the Island Country's Kameda family, the resplendent meeting hall is dead silent.
A strong member of the Kameda family, Kameda Saburo, has defected!
This makes all Kameda family members extremely angry!
They absolutely refuse to allow a traitor like this in their family, thinking it's utterly disgraceful.
But faced with this blatant fact, there is no room for dispute.
This makes numerous Kameda family members incredibly angry and deeply grieved. Any Upper Ninja expert is extremely rare, not to mention a Peak of late stage Upper Ninja expert.
Yet, he has betrayed just like that.
The current head of the Kameda family, Kameda Chikage, said coldly, "Kameda Saburo has become a traitor; what does everyone think about this issue?"
No one made a sound in the meeting hall.
No one knew how to address this; Kameda Saburo's status in the Kameda family could definitely rank within the top five. Those ranked lower than him could not speak, and those higher didn't know how to voice their thoughts, so the meeting hall remained silent.
Seeing everyone silent, Kameda Chikage said coldly, "Ladies and gentlemen, the problem now is that he has defected from us, defected from the family. This is an undeniable traitor..."
Just then, a young man suddenly stood up. This man was Kameda Saburo's son, Kameda Yamashita. He said, "Family Head, may I boldly ask, who sent the news of my father's defection?"
Kameda Chikage replied, "Of course, it's from our family's intelligence personnel. What, do you think the information they sent is fake?"
