This building is situated at a relatively high position deep within the Musashi School, and those living here are certainly prominent figures.

Otherwise, this father and son wouldn't be openly discussing whether to make a move against Miyamoto Musashi, the ruler of the Musashi School.

But the sudden emergence of this sentence caused both of them to sharply tremble, their faces changing dramatically, a trace of panic flashing in their eyes!

"Who's there?"

However, this father and son are indeed no ordinary people; otherwise, they wouldn't have managed to endure in such great hatred all this time.

After a brief panic, they calmed down, and the elder gazed outside the window with a dark look... the voice came from that direction.

Whoosh~~

Just as the elder's voice fell, a figure swiftly passed through the window, entering the room.

The father and son did not move, but their tense bodies clearly showed their vigilance towards this unexpected "guest," only refraining from taking immediate action.

Although they didn't know who this man was, judging from what he said earlier, it seemed he was not on the same side as Miyamoto Musashi and might even be an enemy...

Miyamoto Musashi, with his power reaching such heights, had been ruling the Musashi School for years and was also quite aggressive and domineering externally, having numerous enemies, which was not surprising... even this father and son had once eliminated enemies for Miyamoto Musashi!

"Who are you?"

The elder looked somewhat puzzled at the man in front of him, who seemed just slightly younger than him, with a slightly weaker aura, but at Master Level Peak, the same level as his son.

Perhaps because of age, the elder did not recognize this man before him...

"Father, he seems to be... Watanabe from the Black Dragon Society!"

However, his son showed considerable surprise and whispered a reminder.

This suddenly appeared man was naturally Watanabe... or rather, Qin Fang using Watanabe's face. He happened to discover the conversation between this father and son, which is why he showed up.

"Black Dragon Society?"

When the elder heard his son's introduction, his previously cautious demeanor relaxed a bit, but his attitude towards Qin Fang showed obvious neglect and contempt.

This was within Qin Fang's expectations; while the Black Dragon Society might be powerful to regular people, to these Ninja Sects, it was merely a slightly stronger force, far from being able to contend with the Musashi School.

The Black Dragon Society also had some experts, but even a Master Level Peak like Watanabe was only at the high elder level, while Musashi School had about eight such experts, if not more.

Moreover, the experts of Musashi School were all skilled assassins; just these seven or eight experts would be enough to easily wipe out most of the Black Dragon Society's upper echelon.

The elder before him, though suppressed miserably by Miyamoto Musashi, even losing his woman to him, still had to work for him without daring to seek revenge...

This was not because he was timid or cowardly, but because his strength was insufficient... although insufficient is relative, Qin Fang could tell this old man's strength surpassed that of Hattori Sanzo in his prime, as he had reached Grandmaster Mid-Stage!

Grandmaster Mid-Stage, if Qin Fang guessed correctly, this person should be...

"Kawada Musashi, Grandmaster Mid-Stage Expert, Elder of the Musashi School, ranked just below Miyamoto Musashi, once hailed as Miyamoto Musashi's top lackey!"

Qin Fang didn't mind the elder's disdain and calmly spoke out the identity of the other party, along with what the outside world had to say about him all these years!

"Kanda Masao, Master-level Peak Expert, Elder of the Musashi School, Kawada Musashi's second son, once fought against Iga School's young master Hattori Ryota for a hundred moves undefeated, hailed as the Musashi School's top talent..."

Qin Fang didn't ignore this elder or the middle-aged man either; the identity of both father and son was quite distinguished, at least within the Musashi School.

"What a shame, what a shame..."

After saying all this, Qin Fang disdainfully sneered as a taunt.

The identities, status, and strength of these two were extremely formidable, but Qin Fang hadn't expected such a secret behind them.

It's often said that the Japanese are perverted, especially regarding women, reaching the extreme; it seems even these Ninja Sects could not escape this cliché.

Miyamoto Musashi sure has a heavy taste, to actually play with his top lackey's wife and even play her to death... And yet, this lackey has continued to work for him tirelessly for over a decade...

"Young man, sometimes talking too much can bring disaster upon yourself..."

Qin Fang was quite pleased with what he had said, but the faces of the father and son across from him had turned extremely ugly. After all, such family scandals were not something to be publicized, and yet Qin Fang was blatantly slapping them in the face. How could they possibly be happy about that?

At least Kawada Musashi couldn't hold back anymore. He sneered with a sinister tone, while his aura gradually ascended. When a Grandmaster Mid-Stage Expert gets angry, it's undoubtedly a terrifying thing.

"A Black-robed Priest of the Dao Shen Sect?"

However, Qin Fang completely ignored them and casually waved a token-like object in his hand. The expressions on the father and son instantly froze.

Kawada Musashi was slightly better off, his gaze merely turning extremely sinister, but Kanda Masao couldn't help but cry out in surprise.

The Dao Shen Sect is the most powerful force in Japan, virtually ruling the entire country, including all major Ninja Sects under its control.

Therefore, a priest of the Dao Shen Sect holds great authority in Japan... Even a lowly Black-robed Priest isn't someone an average expert dares to offend!

The father and son duo are truly unfortunate; they are quite formidable, but Qin Fang was surprised to find out that neither of them held any position within the Dao Shen Sect.

Even someone like Kawada Musashi, who is a Grandmaster-level Expert, could qualify as a White-robed Priest, yet he isn't even a Black-robed Priest...

If Kawada Musashi doesn't qualify, then there's no need to mention Kanda Masao.

"Young man, although you're a Black-robed Priest of the Dao Shen Sect, you must know that Lord Miyamoto Musashi, the leader of the Musashi School, is a Red-robed Priest of the Dao Shen Sect. Your previous words were an act of rebellion and warrant severe punishment..."

Kawada Musashi's face looked grim, but his emotions didn't seem to fluctuate much. Having harbored such great hatred for many years, how could he possibly lose his temper over something so trivial from Qin Fang?

Not losing his temper doesn't mean Kawada Musashi doesn't make a move. At least this statement of his hits Qin Fang's weak spot...

Japan is a nation that heavily values personal rank, especially within the Dao Shen Sect, where each layer of hierarchy is highly rigid.

Qin Fang is now leveraging the identity of Watanabe, a Black-robed Priest, yet dares to challenge Miyamoto Musashi, a Red-robed Priest second only to the Great Priest in the Dao Shen Sect. This indeed breaks too many taboos.

If Kawada Musashi tells Miyamoto Musashi about this, then "Watanabe" is bound to face severe punishment... and such execution methods are certainly not as simple as seppuku.

"You can go and tell Miyamoto Musashi, I don't mind at all..."

Qin Fang shrugged with a calm smile, completely unafraid or intimidated, and appeared rather carefree, as if he was eager for the father and son to snitch on him.

"Miyamoto Musashi's identity as a Red-robed Priest of the Dao Shen Sect, yet you two can't even reach the lowest level of Black-robed Priest, what does this illustrate... Haha, you two really do know how to kiss Miyamoto Musashi's ass!"

However, Qin Fang immediately changed his tone, mocking the father and son with a smile. This time, his words hit even harder!

"Baka!"

Indeed, upon hearing this, Kawada Musashi didn't seem too affected; this old guy has been a fiend for many years, how could he get easily angered?

But his son, Kanda Masao, clearly lacked such calmness. He exploded in anger, immediately taking on a stance as if he was about to attack Qin Fang.

But with his father sitting right there, he didn't dare to act without permission, which was why he didn't make a move directly... Even so, he was glaring at Qin Fang with rage, his eyes almost popping out!

Qin Fang completely disregarded such low-level eye intimidation, not taking it seriously at all. If even this minor squabble could make him lose composure, then his mental fortitude would be too weak.

"Who exactly are you?"

Ultimately, Kanda Masao didn't make a move, being stopped by his father Kawada Musashi, and Kawada Musashi deeply stared at Qin Fang for a long while, before asking in a slightly chilly tone.

"Who am I? Is it really that important?"

Qin Fang seemed unconcerned. Kawada Musashi had already disregarded his identity as a Black-robed Priest of the Dao Shen Sect, which wasn't an issue, but at least Qin Fang had now made Kawada Musashi take notice of him, otherwise, the old geezer would have acted against Qin Fang long ago.

So, Qin Fang decided to make himself even more mysterious, this kind of smoke and mirrors, not only hides his secrets but also leads Kawada Musashi into confusion!

"Are you from the Yagyu family, or the Ando family..."

Qin Fang's tactic seemed to have some effect, the more he concealed, the more Kawada Musashi would likely overthink, and after a simple ponder, he frowned and inquired.

Regrettably, Qin Fang said nothing in response, merely smiling faintly and looking at the father and son without any intention of revealing his identity... (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to visit Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for it, your support is my greatest motivation.)
