"The news came from Yang Guozhong that Takeyoung Kato was dead, and it was Li Xin'an who did it."
In the shadow behind him, Wu Xiang appeared in his face and said lightly: "Why?"
"It seems, because of a woman."
An Qingxu sneered: "I didn't expect that our Lord Li Hall is actually a love affair."
He sighed to the sky: "Li Xin'an, Li Xin'an, why do you want to ruin my big deal!"
"A Japanese man deserves this kind of emotion for young master?"
"What do you know!"
An Qingxu scolded coldly: "Kato Takeyoung is our contact person with Japan. The Kato family had already agreed to form an alliance with us. As long as they win reinforcements from the Tang Dynasty, annex the four families including Koga, and unify Japan, after we set off, they will send troops to the southeast to form a four-sided encirclement with Tubo, Khitan and us."
"Now he is dead, all of this has become a dream bubble!"
Wu Xiang frowned: "That big thing is to rely on a Kato Takeyoung to maintain it?"
"Of course he is not the only one, but Takehide Kato's status in the Kato family is of great importance. His death will have a great impact on our great cause."
"What should I do now?"
"For the sake of the present, we can only send people to Japan and meet Kato Shio, the head of the Kato family, in person."
An Qingxu said: "Wuxiang, at that time, we will select capable personnel from the bloody camp, serve as guards, and accompany the envoys."
"I see."
An Qingxu sighed, and his eyes regained murderous intent:
"Li Xin'an, keeping it is really a scourge!"
"Now that Kato Takeyoung is dead, we have no reason to stay in Chang'an. We pack up our things in the past two days. After Li Xin'an is convicted, if he is abandoned and executed by Li Chu, we will leave. If he escapes, then you will kill him and we will return to Fanyang."
He turned around, his eyes were as sharp as a torch, staring at Wu Xiang's eyes:
"This time, don't let him go."
Wu Xiang nodded lightly and simply said "Yeah".
The two continued to walk forward until their backs completely disappeared and after a bush, they showed a pair of cold eyes.
...
Tokyo Inn.
The sudden appearance of Juan An Qingyuan completely disrupted Li Xin'an's mind.
Shimizu Nobu's face was pale, his lips could not stop trembling, and he stumbled backwards, but he ran straight into the door.
Juan Qingyuan glanced at him lightly and said hoarsely:
"Qingshui, what's next has nothing to do with you, you leave here."
“Ha…Hayi.”
As if Shimizu Nobu was granted a general amnesty, he hurriedly pulled the door bolt and rushed out of Takehide Kato's room.
Li Xin'an closed the door gently, turned around, and looked directly at Ju'an Qingyuan.
"It's very familiar, right?"
Juan Qingyuan suddenly said this without any end.
Li Xinan clenched his fists tightly, his voice obscure, as if he was trying hard to suppress some emotions:
"There is no shadow under the moon, breathing silently. It is as light as willow leaves, moving like thunder. The hidden killing Wuji skill... is a great achievement!"
"Why did you kill Wuji Gong in secret?"
Juan Qingyuan tilted her head and said, "No wonder I think you have something familiar to me. Sure enough, you are also from there."
Li Xin'an calmed down his bullying chest and said in a deep voice: "Are you from the Blood Clothes Hall?"
“It was many years ago.”
Juan Qingyuan asked, "Your name."
"Li Xin'an."
"age?"
“Twenty-three.”
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
"Twenty-three... Are you born in the 19th year of Kaiyuan?"
Li Xin'an nodded: "Yes, I was indeed born in the 19th year of Kaiyuan. It seems that you know a lot about the Tang Dynasty and you still know the year."
"Haha... In the year you were born, I was already an elite assassin in the Blood Clothing Hall, commanding fifty people."
Li Xin'an said in surprise: "Your status is so high? In the classics of the Blood Clothes Hall, I did not find any Japanese people. Are you using a pseudonym?"
"Yes, at that time, my name was Andingfang."
"The second-grade median, the black snake stabilizes the ground?"
Li Xin'an only felt that God made a big joke on him: "The senior of the Blood Clothes Hall, who was famous for being an Adamantai, was standing in front of me."
Juan Qingyuan looked at Li Xin'an carefully: "I have been in the Bloody Clothing Hall for 11 years. There are very few people in the hall with the surname Li. I don't know you. Who are your parents? Who is the master? Which branch are you from?"
"I...my mother is Tao Huaping, my father...Li Linfu."
Juan Qingyuan's pupils suddenly widened and she said in a lost voice: "Are you Li Lin?"
Li Xin'an smiled bitterly and said, "If my senior knew that name, I would be. However, many years ago, I wouldn't be called Li Lin, I'm just Li Xin'an."
Juan Qingyuan laughed in silence: "It turns out that he is the owner of the small hall, and An Dingfang is rude."
Li Xinan asked curiously: "Senior, aren't you a master of the Hachiko family in the Sakurajima? Why did you join the Blood Clothes Door?"
Juan Qingyuan shook her head: "It's not because I'm from the Ju family that I joined the Blood Clothes Hall. But because I swayed across the sea and joined the Blood Clothes Hall, I found the Ju family."
"What does this mean?"
"Haha, that's a long story."
"Now, let's talk about the serious business."
Li Xin'an nodded: "All follow the instructions of senior."
"Hey, this is a bad word."
Juan Qingyuan waved his hand: "I can't afford to take the word "Senior". In the 24th year of Kaiyuan, Zhang Siyuan cleaned the Blood Clothing Hall in order to make you succeed. It was at that time that I left the Blood Clothing Hall, left the Tang Dynasty, and returned to Japan."
"The Black Snake An Dingfang had already died eighteen years ago. Now, the one standing in front of you is Seigen Kiriya, the head of the third Sakurajima Eight."
"Are you the head of the Ju family?" Li Xin'an said in surprise.
"Only a few people in the Ju family know about this, my identity is very hidden." Juan Qingyuan said, "This time I came to Chang'an, I suddenly had a whim and wanted to revisit the old place. It was a coincidence that I met you."
"Yes." Li Xin'an sighed, "If Takeyo Kato hadn't died strangely, we might never have met."
"I heard all your speculations about Takeyoung Kato's death."
Yusuke Konoha said: "You suspect that Matsuichi Yamada might be the murderer, I agree. But who came here and colluded with Matsuichi Yamada and cut off Takehie Kato's head?"
Li Xinan said in a deep voice: "You need to tell me why Kikukawa Dai and Miyahara Kazuya are also here to find you."
Juan Qingyuan jumped out of the window, sat in front of Li Xin'an, and said:
"Kikukawa Dai came to me to discuss the matter of joining forces with the Koga family and annexing the Kato family."
Li Xin'an smiled softly: "It's true that's not what I expected."
"Did you guess it?" Ju An Qingyuan looked at him in surprise, for a while, and shook his head helplessly:
"I am indeed the son of Tao Huaping and Li Linfu, and I am indeed extremely intelligent."
"Don't mention the second name." Li Xin'an said, "The key is, is Kikukawa Dai coming to you, is it his own meaning or Koga Yusuke?"
“What’s the difference?”
Li Xinan said in a deep voice: "If it is Kikugawa Dai's own meaning, then it is not difficult to be sure. The one who killed someone was Kikugawa Dai. But if it is Koga Yusuke's meaning, it is also certain that the one who killed someone was Koga Yusuke."
Juan Qingyuan said: "Kukukawa Dai did not reveal who he came to find me.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Command, but in my words, I felt that his words were... empty."
"null?"
"Yes, it's empty."
Yuri Akito said: "He painted a very illusory scene for me - there is no Kato family in Japan anymore. The most powerful Koga family integrates the other six families, overthrew the situation where the generals dominate themselves, imitate the Tang Dynasty, and establish a new imperial system that holds power firmly in their hands."
"The emperor, he did it in turn."
Li Xin'an couldn't help but feel a little funny: "The emperor takes turns to do it? Why is Kikuchi Dai so naive?"
"What he said is unreliable, and there are many inconveniences in his speech time."
Li Xin'an pondered: "Since this is the case, his suspicion is a little smaller."
"Why?" Ju An Qingyuan was puzzled.
"Under the intense excitement of normal people, they are incoherent and dance. Kikukawa Dai's reaction, which seems to be full of loopholes, just shows that he is not the murderer, but an ordinary person who is completely unaware of it. He has found that pie fell from the sky and has picked up."
"Then do you think it's Yusuke Koga?"
"The murderer used a sharp weapon to kill people. Kikukawa Dai is Onmyoji, and Miyahara Kazuya obviously will not be the murderer. My suspicion is originally biased towards Yusuke Koga, but your words made me more firm in my opinion."
Juan Qingyuan nodded slowly: "I think so too."
"Next, you only need to watch Koga Yusuke's reaction to determine whether he is the murderer."
Li Xin'an frowned and said, "It's a pity that there is no substantial evidence."
“No evidence is needed.”
Juan Qingyuan said in a deep voice: "Don't forget your identity."
"My identity?" Li Xin'an was confused.
"You are an assassin, an assassin who is outside the law. It doesn't matter whether Koga Yusuke confesses his guilt or not. Kill him and forges a piece of evidence. This is how we do it."
Li Xinan hesitated and said, "This... the people above will not believe it."
"Oh, I forgot that now you still have the official position in the government, and you are still the prince's grandson Li Chu."
Ju An Qingyuan got up and walked to the window, turned her back to him, and said:
"However, no matter how you choose, I will kill Yusuke Koga."
"senior……"
"It's not for you, nor for me, but for the Ju family."
Kuriya Ahn said: "Do you know that the Sakurajima Hayao did not have the Kuriya family at the beginning?"
"I know very little about Japan when I was still alive, but I really don't know."
"Since the Qin Dynasty, Xu Fu went to sea to find immortals and discovered Japan, the eight Sakurajima families were established, divided into the upper three and the lower five."
"The first three companies were Gen, Matsushita and Ryuma, and the second five companies were Yamada, Koga, Kato, Sakurai and Togo."
"After hundreds of years of historical changes, the current situation of the Sakurajima Eight Families was found. However, eighteen years ago, the Juicy Families were just an unknown small family on the beach of Jiuzhou Island."
"I am seventy-one this year. When I was sixteen years old, I went out to sea to fish, encountered a storm, and fell into a whirlpool. When I woke up, I was already on Ryukyu Island. Later, I decided to return to Japan, but by chance I went in the wrong direction and came to the Tang Dynasty."
"I stayed in the Tang Dynasty for thirty-seven years and in the Bloody Clothes Hall for eleven years, and practiced Yinsha Wuji to the great success. Then I returned to Japan. With the martial arts of the Bloody Clothes Hall, the Ju family replaced the Sakurai family, which was the current Ju family, in 18 years."
"But, I'm old."
"The Ju family has no successor."
"The owner of the little hall, I am the head of the Ju family, and I must consider the Ju family. Whether Koga Yusuke confesses his guilt or not, whether he is the real murderer or not, he must be!"
"The Kiri family is currently dependent on the Kato family. I will kill Yusuke Koga, which will cause a full-scale war between the Koga family and the Kato family. In peacetime, the Kiri family will die in just a blink of an eye. Only when Japan is in chaos can my Kiri family survive."
