Chapter 995: Chapter 995: Perish, YUAN Mingchi's Little Junior Sister (1)

“…”

The surroundings suddenly fell silent.

The Fujisan family’s patriarch’s pupils contracted violently.

He had been in seclusion for over a decade and didn’t recognize Kusonoki Akatsuki, but he did recognize the sword in her hand.

Yuan Mingchi’s shikigami was the Yamata no Orochi, which already placed them at a disadvantage in terms of innate talent.

But to think someone had actually found the Tsurugi Sword?!

The Tsurugi Sword, along with The Totsuka-no-Tsurugi and the Futsunomitama-no-Tsurugi, were collectively known as the “Three Sacred Swords” of Eastern Mulberry, possessing immense power.

Among them, the Tsurugi Sword was the foremost, symbolizing absolute authority and reverence.

The ancestor of the Fujisan family was aware that these three sacred swords were within “Eternity,” but no one had ever found them.

Now, the Tsurugi Sword had appeared!

YUAN Mingchi’s eyes narrowed as he turned his head.

His frosty, cold face could not hide his undeniable beauty.

Beside him, the Yamata no Orochi also turned, its eight heads excited upon seeing the sword in Kusonoki Akatsuki’s hand.

Without waiting for YUAN Mingchi’s command, the Yamata no Orochi flew towards Kusonoki Akatsuki, its eight tails coiling around the sword in her hand. Kusonoki Akatsuki looked expressionlessly at YUAN Mingchi and said, “Take it.”

YUAN Mingchi raised an eyebrow and pointed at the sword in her hand, suddenly smiling, “The Tsurugi Sword?”

Kusonoki Akatsuki said nothing, her eyes as calm as ice, though the murderous intent within them grew stronger, nearly breaking through.

No one doubted she was the elder daughter of the Kusonoki family, a presence forged through years of wielding power.

This murderous intent caused even YUAN Mingchi to slightly move. Finally done observing, he spoke with a warning, “Orochi.”

Reluctantly, the Yamata no Orochi uncoiled from the sword and returned to YUAN Mingchi’s side, assuming its combat form. The Masters of Yin-Yang of the Fujisan family shuddered.

Kusonoki Akatsuki’s appearance plunged the great elder into despair. “Miss Akatsuki! Our Fujisan family has always respected you. What does this mean?”

The Kusonoki family, one of the three major evolved being families, had the strength to establish themselves in the Free State yet remained independent and free from the Holy Light Tribunal’s jurisdiction.

Kusonoki Akatsuki’s voice was cold and succinct, “You harmed my friend.”

One sentence sent the great elder into an icy abyss.

That Lady of Luck was connected to Kusonoki Akatsuki?!

The great elder collapsed to the ground, his face pale, cold sweat drenching his back.

Had they known Si Fuqing had such formidable backers, they would never have abducted her!

Their greed had brought the Fujisan family to the brink of destruction.

It was over. They were completely finished.

Facing the Kusonoki family, with YUAN Mingchi’s absolute dominance, they had no chance.

YUAN Mingchi’s eyes narrowed further.

His little junior sister’s friend?

He glanced at Kusonoki Akatsuki’s, then back at the head of the Fujisan family, smiling, “Don’t pretend you did nothing. You already tried to steal her luck once, and now you’re trying again.”

Having found his little junior sister, he wouldn’t let these pests harm her.

YUAN Mingchi turned away, his voice indifferent, “From today, the Yin-Yang and Five Elements world will have no Fujisan family.”

Kusonoki Akatsuki cradled her sword and added, “Consider this my doing.”

YUAN Mingchi raised an eyebrow but didn’t refuse, “Thank you. If the Kusonoki family ever needs assistance, Miss Akatsuki can call on me anytime.”

If he destroyed the Fujisan family, the Holy Light Tribunal would undoubtedly torture him.

With YUAN’s Mingchi’s command, the Yamata no Orochi launched a full-scale attack.

All the evil Masters of Yin-Yang of the past years were rooted out, leaving the innocent unharmed.

In one night, the Fujisan family, which had dominated Eastern Mulberry for a millennium, was utterly annihilated.

In the Fujisan family’s dungeon, Kusonoki Akatsuki found several ordinary people who had been subjected to cruel experiments by the Fujisan family.

Even someone as accustomed to bloodshed as Kusonoki Akatsuki felt a chill.

“Such vile methods,” YUAN Mingchi remarked beside her, “Many have perished at their hands over the years.”

Kusonoki Akatsuki frowned at the Yamata no Orochi coiling around her sword again.

“Orochi is greeting you,” YUAN Mingchi said, raising an eyebrow, “You should know from Eastern Mulberry mythology that the Tsurugi Sword is the divine sword from Orochi’s body.”

Kusonoki Akatsuki sheathed the sword, her voice cold, “Your shikigami means nothing to me.”

She had come to the Fujisan family solely for Si Fuqing.

Ignoring the Yamata no Orochi’s grievances, Kusonoki Akatsuki left swiftly, her evolved powers propelling her away.

YUAN Mingchi shook his head, “Quite the temperament.”

He had heard of a highly talented Master of Yin-Yang emerging from the Kusonoki family.

Today he saw the reputation was well-deserved.

YUAN Mingchi pondered.

No wonder his junior sister was the Lady of Luck.

Those with great luck attracted many exceptional talents.

“Let’s go, Orochi,” YUAN Mingchi smiled, “We may see each other often.”

He retracted his shikigami and turned to leave.

Before he could go far, his phone rang.

Seeing the caller ID, his expression turned cold, and he answered icily, “What is it?”

The voice on the other end was formal, “Why did Mr. YUAN go to Eastern Mulberry and kill people?”

YUAN Mingchi nonchalantly brushed his sleeve, “Because I was in a good mood, because it was fun. Is there a problem?”

The caller fell silent, unsure how to continue.

YUAN Mingchi indeed behaved this way.@@novelbin@@

He had once performed kabuki theater for three days straight in the Free State just because he felt like it.

Even knowing YUAN Mingchi was behind the Fujisan family’s destruction, with Kusonoki Akatsuki claiming responsibility, the Holy Light Tribunal couldn’t punish him.

“Alright, just a routine inquiry,” the caller said, “Please be mindful of your actions, Mr. YUAN. We don’t wish to arrest you for any reason.”

YUAN Mingchi hung up, laughing coldly.

The Holy Light Tribunal had reacted quickly.

He withdrew his hand from the phone.

With trouble brewing in his sect, he didn’t trust the Free State anymore.

He had to investigate himself.

The news of his little junior sister being alive must never reach the Free State.

**

The news of the Fujisan family’s destruction couldn’t be hidden. The Natsukawa family’s old ancestor saw it firsthand, and the Takizawa family learned through star chart.

The Takizawa head quickly informed the Sakai head.

“Is this true?” the Sakai head’s body shook.

“Absolutely!” the Takizawa head’s voice trembled, “YUAN Mingchi alone fought his way in. Even the Fujisan family’s ancestors couldn’t match him!”

The Sakai head gasped.

The Yin-Yang and Five Elements arts of Eastern Mulberry had been introduced by the Fujisan family’s old ancestor after traveling to Great Xia.

Their three families’ foundations were weaker compared to the Fujisan family.

But now, the top family in the Yin-Yang and Five Elements world was gone overnight. It was unbelievable.

“Did YUAN Mingchi give a reason?” the Sakai head urgently asked, “There must be a reason.”

The Takizawa head hesitated, “According to the Free State, he did it for fun.”

The Sakai head was stunned, “For fun?”

“YUAN Mingchi is unpredictable,” the Takizawa head said bitterly, “With the Fujisan family gone, we must tread carefully.”

The Sakai head nodded gravely.

The Fujisan family had courted disaster by provoking YUAN Mingchi.

**

The next afternoon, Fujisan Shinya, knocked out by the Yamata no Orochi in one hit, slowly regained consciousness.

Bound by Orochi’s restraints, his powers sealed, he couldn’t move.

Seeing the Yamata no Orochi, Fujisan Shinya knew he had crossed YUAN Mingchi.

YUAN Mingchi stood with his hands behind his back, looking at him coldly, “I spared your life. You know what to do. Speak now.”

Concerning Si Fuqing, he needed thorough answers.

Fujisan Shinya took a deep breath, “If Lord YUAN want the Lady of Luck, I won’t fight. I’ll give her to you.”

Yuan Mingchi was the fifth disciple of the Cloud Summit, and his strength was already formidable. Even more impressive was the entire Cloud Summit sect.

The Fujisan family had failed to establish themselves even in the Free State, so how could they possibly contend with the Cloud Summit?

Fujisan Shinya’s fingers trembled.

He had miscalculated, forgetting that YUAN Mingchi could recognize the Lady of Luck just as he had.

He shouldn’t have waited until after the Nine Realms Awards.

Regretting deeply, Fujisan Shinya kowtowed a few more times with force, “I never intended to oppose you, Mr. YUAN. If you need the luck transfer formation, I’ll give it to you.”

The name Cloud Summit alone filled Shinya with fear.

“Give it to me?” YUAN Mingchi’s smile vanished, replaced by a chilling malice, “What are you to dare to covet my junior sister’s luck?”
