Urban Romantic Divine Doctor-Chapter 713 - 711, Shameless Days
Chapter 713: Chapter 711, Shameless Days
The economy and political scene of Wa Country were in chaos.
First, the Fukuda family announced bankruptcy, followed by the removal of Jiro Fukuda as a member of parliament by the Prime Minister.
Subsequently, the Abe family also declared bankruptcy, with Ryou Abe’s parliamentary membership being revoked as well.
These events delivered a significant blow to Wa Country, plunging both its economy and political arena into disarray, although news later surfaced about the Asou family losing five billion US Dollars.
However, compared to the Fukuda and Abe families, the Asou family’s fifty billion US Dollars seemed insignificant, but this incident also led the Asou family to declare bankruptcy.
Even the status as a reserve parliament member was stripped away.
Upon learning about these matters.
Koizumi Oda felt quite relieved and experienced bouts of fear. They had once considered seizing Yano Yamato’s body, and although there were casualties within the clan, compared to the Asou, Fukuda, and Abe families, they were indeed fortunate.
At least their family was not destroyed, and he still remained a member of parliament.
------
As the mastermind causing chaos in Wa Country’s economy and politics, Xu Wendong lived comfortably, living a carefree life with Pingliang Xiangzhi and Iga Kako after helping Pingliang Xiangzhi arrange a funeral.
At the same time, he insisted on having them take tonic herbal medicine and consistently gave massages to both women, resulting in noticeable improvements in their physiques.
In fact, Iga Kako’s strength was already not weak, but Pingliang Xiangzhi was different, as she was truly a fragile woman unable to truss a chicken.
Even though she became the leader of Bushido, without Xu Wendong around, she couldn’t leverage the "Divine Power" and couldn’t command anyone.
Her strength needed to be improved.
Xu Wendong always believed in the saying that one strength could defeat ten techniques, so he focused primarily on strength and secondarily on speed when training Pingliang Xiangzhi.
Although Pingliang Xiangzhi hadn’t learned swordsmanship, she had grown up in Yamato Kendo Hall, so she had some understanding by osmosis.
Once Xu Wendong solidified her foundation, she progressed rapidly, leaving Xu Wendong feeling amazed as though she were a celestial being.
Of course.
This might also be due to dual cultivation with Xu Wendong.
That noon.
As Xu Wendong, Pingliang Xiangzhi, and Iga Kako enjoyed lunch, a disciple from the Martial Arts Hall approached, saying: "Master, I’ve just received news that the martial artists and ninjas who went to Great Xia searching for [True Immortal Xu] have all returned."
"At that time, two other Martial Arts Hall disciples will merge with our Yamato Kendo Hall. They are the elite of the other two Martial Arts Halls, and it is said that the two masters of those halls have perished in Great Xia, dead without leaving a trace."
"I understand, you may go now," Pingliang Xiangzhi said calmly, sighing lightly after the person left: "I told my father beforehand not to go to Great Xia, but he wouldn’t listen, and if he hadn’t gone, none of this would have happened!"
Iga Kako let out a wry smile: "This time, our Wa Country sent hundreds to thousands of experts into Great Xia, seeking revenge on the so-called True Immortal Xu, but the result?"
"They failed to find True Immortal Xu and even suffered heavy casualties."
The Iga Clan also dispatched some ninjas to Great Xia, so Iga Kako was aware of what took place in Great Xia. To them, it was like a nightmare.
Xu Wendong cleared his throat and said: "I agree with Xiangzhi’s view; there should never have been a thought of killing True Immortal Xu for revenge because we were in the wrong, to begin with."
"It’s like someone breaking into our house to steal and getting killed; the thief’s family then wants to kill us. In the world, when has such absurdity existed?"
"If they dared to kill the Eight-Forked Serpent, they were unafraid of retaliation by our country’s cultivators. They surely prepared traps in the shadows, so if our people dared to go over, they would be vanquished in defeat."
The covert assassination of Wa Country cultivators was also orchestrated by Xu Wendong to teach those imps a painful lesson.
Pingliang Xiangzhi lamented: "It’s a pity that those in power are arrogantly ignorant, dismissing Great Xia, otherwise, our Wa Country cultivators wouldn’t have suffered innumerable casualties. Let’s hope this incident serves as a lesson for them!"
Xu Wendong suddenly asked: "Has Mito Yuta died?"
Iga Kako replied: "Mito Yuta is the clan leader of the Mito Family and has a Human Ninja Level strength. This time, he led the ninja forces into Great Xia, and although he encountered Great Xia cultivators, he was unharmed."
Actually, Xu Wendong already knew the answer to this question. Although he was in Wa Country, he was aware of what transpired in Great Xia, such as Ye Qingxin standing against Mito Yuta.
It was said that the person’s strength was very formidable, and even Ye Qingxin couldn’t kill him.
"Previously, Wa Country had three ninja forces, and although the disparity among the three was significant, they maintained a balance of power," Xu Wendong said as he ate, "But now, the balance among the three forces has been disrupted; once Mito Yuta returns, a fierce battle with the Tokugawa Clan will surely ensue!"
"An all-out battle where only one survives."
Previously, Xu Wendong wondered: why did Iga Chosei, who wasn’t stupid, launch an attack on the Tokugawa Clan after being persuaded by him with just a few words?
Didn’t the Iga Clan recognize their own strength?
Then he came to an understanding— Iga Chosei wasn’t foolish at all. He attacked the Tokugawa Clan to disrupt the existing balance.
He knew the Iga Clan couldn’t rival the Tokugawa side, but if the Iga Clan’s destruction could lead to a battle between the Tokugawa Clan and the Mito Family, it would be a worthy death, an indirect revenge for the Blood Sea.
"Jiazi, when our country’s cultivators entered Great Xia, were there only martial artists and ninjas? Did those people go?" Xu Wendong asked curiously, wanting to know about the Onmyoji.
"You mean the Onmyoji?" Iga Kako responded: "They didn’t go."
Pingliang Xiangzhi was full of curiosity: "So, those Onmyoji really exist in our country?"
Onmyoji have always been legendary figures in Wa Country, but no one knows their existence or not.
Iga Kako replied with an "mm": "Indeed, there are a few, the most powerful being the one honored by the Imperial Family, who even the Emperor respects. As for the extent of his power, no one knows."
Upon saying this, Iga Kako’s expression turned solemn.
"Let’s stop discussing this, let’s finish eating and then enjoy a great show, and conveniently help avenge your Iga Clan!" Xu Wendong’s eyes sparkled with extraordinary light.
Mito Yuta would arrive in Wa Country tonight, and a life-and-death battle without rest or stop would surely break out with the Tokugawa Clan!
This would be the perfect time for them to reap the benefits of others’ conflicts without directly engaging!
