Almighty Genius

Chapter 1940 - 1496: Complex and Bizarre!

Otherwise, the Demon Sect wouldn't have set its sights on the terribly powerful Dao Shen Sect...It was precisely because of the Demon Sect's involvement that Qin Fang couldn't make a lethal move against Kitatori Kazuo; if they angered the Demon Sect, they would be in serious trouble.

If it really got to that point, Qin Fang's journey in Japan would be over, and they would have to retreat home to safety.

The disciples of the Demon Sect had always been few, but almost every one of them was an elite among elites, a genius among geniuses. They had a significant number of Grandmaster-level experts, and quite a few at the Great Grandmaster Level...

They were never short of the legendary Supreme experts either...

Qin Fang wasn't foolish enough to know that provoking the Demon Sect was not wise, and he would never intentionally court disaster.

"If we're not killing Kitatori Kazuo, then what are we staying here for?"

Ji Xiang, although not fully understanding what Qin Fang and Monk Wukong were worried about, felt sure that the Demon Sect was frighteningly formidable, making it unwise for them to act against Kitatori Kazuo now.

"If we can't kill Kitatori Kazuo, we can still target others..."

Qin Fang smiled mischievously as he spoke.

"Don't forget, our current identity is as people from Anping Shrine, and my current name is Kitatori Kojirou!"

Just the expression on Qin Fang's face was enough to show that he had some wicked plan in mind, and when he said this, every person in Ji Xiang's group had eyes gleaming.

"I've heard the people from Sakata Shrine are staying not far away?"

Qin Fang casually muttered, seeming like idle chatter yet with an underlying motive.

"Indeed, the people from Sakata Shrine are staying just over the mountain..."

Ji Xiang replied with a sly smile and a wandering gaze, having checked the situation over there thoroughly.

The Liangye Hot Spring Hotel was quite large, and the surrounding area was its domain. The complex was built along the mountain, divided into several sections.

Perhaps due to this priest trial, many experts had flocked to Sapporo City, and several factions had chosen to group closer to the Hokkaido Shrine at Liangye Hot Spring Hotel.

Being one of the Six Great Holy Lands, Anping Shrine and Sakata Shrine occupied the two best courtyards of Liangye Hot Spring Hotel...

As Qin Fang and the others had assumed the identity of Kitatori Kojirou, they naturally stayed on the Anping Shrine side, opposite Sakata Shrine's residence...

"Sakata Shrine seems to be much stronger than Anping Shrine! Their heir seems to be called... Tian Gang Chunyi!"

Qin Fang might not know much about the inner workings of Japan's Martial World and the secrets of the Six Great Holy Lands, but he was clear on the names of the heirs that the holy lands had introduced.

Now, among the young experts of the Six Great Holy Lands, Qin Fang had met Hattori Hisanari from Asama Shrine, Saintess Sakura from Hokkaido Shrine, and his fake identity's brother Kitatori Kazuo...

The remaining three were Tian Gang Chunyi from Sakata Shrine, Fukuda Motohumi from Mantian Shrine, and Inoue Yuichi from Dazhu Shrine!

Since Qin Fang couldn't reach Mantian Shrine and Dazhu Shrine for the time being, lacking suitable opportunities to act, Sakata Shrine, which was right next door, presented plenty of chances.

"Let's go scout the road... Although we can't move against Kitatori Kazuo for now, the identity of Kitatori Kojirou shouldn't be wasted!"

Determined, Qin Fang decided to go ahead with the plan, although with some adjustments since the original idea was foiled.

The target to act upon changed from Kitatori Kazuo from Anping Shrine to Tian Gang Chunyi from Sakata Shrine.

Thus, Qin Fang and his group cheerfully drove the hotel's electric cart towards the mountain, under the guise of "sightseeing."

Upon leaving, Qin Fang had specifically notified a certain expert from Anping Shrine staying behind, just in case of emergency.

Put simply, they planned to call for Anping Shrine's backup after causing major trouble...

Moreover, Qin Fang had conceived an even more malicious plan that was already in progress!

Kitatori Kojirou had been dead for several days, done personally by Qin Fang, and the body had been left to dry out...

Of course, the corpse was stored in the Props Box, and due to the freeze of time inside, when taken out, the body still retained a slight warmth, as if it had died not long ago.

With Kitatori Shinichi's love for Kitatori Kojirou and his stubborn character, once he discovered his beloved grandson dead at Sakata Shrine's hands, the outcome could be unimaginable.

Would there be a war between the Holy Lands? It was an unknown possibility.

And Qin Fang could take this opportunity to successfully escape, almost like reverting back to being invisible... fading into the crowd once more!

"Old Ji, I'll entrust this task to you..."

While Qin Fang and the others were leisurely heading up the mountain, Ji Xiang was assigned a task to scout ahead.

Compared with Anping Shrine, where they could gather intel internally, they knew next to nothing about Sakata Shrine.

Although Sakura had mentioned some insights, those were related to Kitatori Kazuo and didn't cover Tian Gang Chunyi...

But Qin Fang vaguely knew that Sakata Shrine ranked second among the Six Great Holy Lands, right after Hattori Hisanari's Asama Shrine. However, among the six candidates, Tian Gang Chunyi's ranking was lower than Hattori Hisanari's, only fifth, slightly better than Sakura.

Nonetheless, Qin Fang wouldn't underestimate Tian Gang Chunyi.

Having experienced Sakura's prowess, Qin Fang knew that none of these candidates were easy to deal with, and Tian Gang Chunyi was no exception! (To be continued.
