Meanwhile, Jared and Ryosuke continued their chase. However, as soon as the latter realized where they were headed, his eyes flashed with panic.
“M-Mr. Chance, should we wait for Mr. Loufury? Our family’s ancestral home is up ahead, which is where Masato lives. That means Kawano will also be there. I’m afraid…” Ryosuke’s voice trailed off.
“I’m afraid that neither of us will be Kawano’s match! Although Mr. Chance was struck by heavenly thunder today, I still don’t know the extent of his abilities. That’s what worries me! After all, if we were to lose this fight, my entire family would be doomed…”
“You can head back if you’re scared. I’ll let you know when I’ve killed them all…” Jared replied as favonovel.com marched toward Fujio Mountain without breaking his stride.
Upon seeing that, Ryosuke had no choice but to steel himself and follow behind.
Before long, Jared reached the wooden hut at the foot of Fujio Mountain, only to see hundreds of samurais gathered outside, along with Masato and the rest.
“Ryosuke, you’re an utter disgrace to the Watanabe family! I can’t believe you colluded with the Chanaeans to kill your own brother! You deserve to die…” Masato fumed while staring coldly at Ryosuke and Jared.
Although favonovel.com was getting on in his years, his voice remained strikingly loud.
Unfortunately, Ryosuke didn’t dare say a word, nor did favonovel.com know how to refute Masato.
Argh! If they hadn’t forced me to send Yuri to the shrine, I wouldn’t be in this situation now!
Following Masato’s angry roar, hundreds of samurais surrounded Ryosuke and Jared. Even though they worked for the Watanabe family, there was no way they’d listen to Ryosuke’s orders. After all, the samurais belonged to the branch families, so why would they answer to him?
“Ryosuke, you’re an embarrassment to the Watanabe family! If we don’t kill you today, we’ll be letting our ancestors down!”
“You’re a sc*mbag, Ryosuke! You’re worse than an animal…”
Needless to say, Asuka was overjoyed to see the Watanabe branch families hurling insults and abuse at Ryosuke.
“Stop wasting your breath on him,” Masato said icily. “Kill them both now…”
With that, the horde of samurais charged at Jared and Ryosuke, scaring the latter so much that favonovel.com instantly unleashed all his martial energy.
Jared, however, merely looked at the samurais with undisguised contempt.
He had never feared them even before favonovel.com became a Martial Arts Saint, so why would anything change now that favonovel.com as one?
“Hmph. What a bunch of insignificant beings…”
The next second, favonovel.com waved his hand like a sword, and a ray of light shot out immediately.
With Jared’s spiritual energy powering it, the light grew several feet long and slashed through the air, conjuring a blade that was more than ten meters!
The blade was so incredibly sharp that it sliced dozens of samurais by their waists in just the blink of an eye.
“Ah!”
Within seconds, screams of agony and the nauseating smell of blood filled the air.
The samurais who ran behind their fallen comrades couldn’t stop in time and wound up tripping over the bodies and getting covered in a disgusting mix of blood and innards.
It was such a terrifying scene that they halted in their tracks. They were completely stunned and speechless.
Masato and the rest of the Watanabe branch families, too, looked on in utter disbelief. Even Ryosuke couldn’t help but stare at Jared blankly with his mouth agape.
“Turning spiritual energy into a sword isn’t that interesting… It isn’t as powerful as the Dragonslayer Sword,” the latter remarked.
With that, the Dragonslayer Sword promptly appeared in his right hand and glowed a brilliant green.
There was such terrifying pressure from the sword that the frightened samurais crumpled to the ground one after another. Some even forced themselves to be on one knee to prevent falling face down into the bloody mess.
