Chapter 529: Chapter 528: Xu Xin’s Worries
Yang Fei’s words made everyone, except Zhu Tianshou, stunned.
Wang Chengcuo and Luo Yong were particularly shaken, realizing the reason they could appear before Yang Fei.
Following Zhang Wenfeng’s and the Zhang Family’s fall from power, the two had been hiding until now, not daring to show themselves because they had previously aligned with the wrong side.
Even though both were National Guardian Level experts with revered statuses, respected wherever they went, they became figures lurking in the shadows, unable to show their faces in public once the Zhang Family collapsed.
Despite their Innate Realm strength, neither Qin Yanyang nor Yang Fei had retaliated against other members of the Wang and Luo Families. The two had once lived in the spotlight, but now had to operate in the dark, and this shift was something they truly struggled to accept.
They had finally managed to contact Qin Yanyang through connections and fought for this opportunity. If they couldn’t seize it, they would indeed have to flee overseas for the rest of their lives.
A Martial Artist of their level would inevitably have made enemies before.
The two themselves were not afraid, but their large families were still in Divine Continent Country, their closest relatives under surveillance, unable to move abroad.
Moreover, uprooting their entire families to relocate abroad and establish a stable foothold wouldn’t be easy.
Thinking this, Wang Chengcuo and Luo Yong exchanged a glance, seeing the deep helplessness in each other’s eyes.
When you’re in the Martial Arts World, you often have no control over your own fate.
Only then did they truly realize that once they accepted the opportunity given by Qin Yanyang, they had no other choices.
The opportunity was here.
Whether to seize it, and whether they could hold onto it, was the test.
"If it’s inevitable, then let’s focus on fulfilling Young Master Yang’s mission. The Divine Continent Martial World is formidable, but together, we are not to be underestimated," Xu Yunshan said, sensing the tension and immediately speaking up to break the silence.
Xu Liangyou and Xu Xiao nodded in agreement.
The Xu Family had already clarified their future direction under Xu Jian’s instructions; they would simply follow the lead of the Imperial City Qin Family.
This young man, though young, was an Innate Realm expert with unfathomable medical skills, and moreover, he was Qin Yanyang’s husband—a man worth the Xu Family betting on heavily.
Luo Yong caught Wang Chengcuo’s eye and cleared his throat, saying to Yang Fei, "Brother Yunshan speaks truthfully. Our Divine Continent Martial World has been in conflict with the Japan Martial World since ancient times. Due to the agreement a century ago, there hasn’t been any conflict for a long time, but we won’t cower if it comes to it."
Seeing Luo Yong look his way, Wang Chengcuo sighed inwardly.
The biggest issue for him was that his disciple had been personally killed by Yang Fei.
In reality, he had no conflicts with Yang Fei or the Qin Family personally, but when Wang Wenqian came to him back then, he intervened to help his disciple pursue martial arts without distractions. He hadn’t expected that Yang Fei was Qin Yanyang’s husband.
Once he found out, the offense had already been given, forcing him to side with the Zhang Family, unfortunately making one wrong move after another, resulting in the loss of his Military Department instructor position and living a secretive life.
Now facing Yang Fei, despite his reluctance, he had to bow to reality.
This is how the Martial Arts World works; personal connections and etiquette are far more important than fighting and killing.
If a decision has been made, there is no use in tormenting oneself.
With this thought, Wang Chengcuo looked directly at Yang Fei and said, "Luo and I are here to follow your commands. Whatever you say, we will do."
Seeing his attitude change so swiftly, Yang Fei was momentarily stunned, but he felt secretly pleased.
He was in urgent need of people, and if he could have the full support of Luo Yong and Wang Chengcuo, his affairs in Japan would proceed much more smoothly.
At this moment, he couldn’t help but admire Qin Yanyang.
When Qin Yanyang had mentioned giving these two a chance, Yang Fei had been reluctant, but now it seemed that his wife truly had a grand vision.
All the Innate Realm experts he had cultivated were pillars of the Divine Continent Martial World, treasures to be cherished. If pushed to desperation, it could cause significant trouble for both him and Qin Yanyang.
It would be better to use their past deeds as leverage to make them work for him.
However, their loyalty still needed to be tested, especially since his wife had already reminded him over the phone.
"Yang Fei, what should we do next? Just wait here?" Zhu Tianshou looked towards Yang Fei, asking about the plan of action.
The others also turned their gazes toward Yang Fei.
In his heart, Yang Fei truly had no plan.
After all, the incident in Japan had occurred very suddenly, and he was not very familiar with the situation here, nor did he know who the hidden mastermind behind it all was.
After a brief moment of contemplation, Yang Fei said to Zhu Tianshou, "Senior Zhu, you and Senior Wang go to the Umekawa Family, just stay nearby and keep an eye on things secretly, just ensuring Umekawa Taro’s safety will suffice."
Zhu Tianshou nodded and said, "No problem."
Seeing Yang Fei had separated him from Luo Yong, Wang Chengcuo smiled slightly, not pointing it out, and nodded, "I have no objections."
Zhu Tianshou was action-oriented and immediately stood up, saying to Wang Chengcuo, "Shall we go now?"
Wang Chengcuo rose and followed suit, and the two of them left.
Watching the two leave, Luo Yong turned to Yang Fei and asked, "What about us?"
"Wait for now, and observe the changes quietly," Yang Fei contemplated.
Luo Yong was startled.
The Xu Yunshan brothers were also somewhat puzzled about what Yang Fei was planning to do.
However, since Yang Fei had arranged it this way, they had no objections but to follow through.
The estate was enormous, and Xu Xin soon arranged accommodations for the several people.
Yang Fei was housed alone in a spacious bedroom. After Xu Xin settled him in, he walked out of the room.
"Hey, Mr. Yamamoto."
Just as he walked out, Xu Xin’s phone rang, and he answered the call, starting with a greeting.
Inside the room, Yang Fei, who had exceptional hearing, heard Xu Xin’s conversation and was intrigued.
He opened the door, only to see Xu Xin talking on the phone while walking toward the courtyard, "Tonight? Mr. Yamamoto, I might not be able to get away..."
"Oh come on, what could be more important than dealing with Senior Chiba’s matter? You must come over tonight, it’s settled then."
After saying that, the other end hung up the phone.
Xu Xin said anxiously, "Mr. Yamamoto, listen to me, hey... hey..."
Looking at the disconnected phone, Xu Xin, somewhat troubled, scratched his head and muttered to himself, "Senior Chiba personally invited me to her party, she will definitely be upset if I don’t go. But... but if I dare leave the estate today, grandpa will definitely break my legs, such a tough choice."
Watching Xu Xin mutter to himself in distress as he walked out of the courtyard, Yang Fei’s lips curled up, revealing a slight smile.
At dinner time, Xu Xin was not qualified to sit at the table and eat with them. After settling everything, he was supposed to leave.
Seeing him glance occasionally at Xu Yunshan, Yang Fei was struck with an idea and said, "Xu Xin, why are you going out? Come, sit down and eat with us."
Xu Xin jumped in fright, hastily waving his hands, "No, no, I’ve already eaten."
What a joke, to have me eat at the same table as a few grandfathers, that’s asking for my life.
Xu Yunshan was quite pleased with his grandson’s reaction, and waved his hand, "If you have eaten, then you can go down."
Xu Xin felt like he was pardoned; however, Yang Fei stood up and walked over to him, grabbing his hand, "Don’t leave, I’m about your age, sit down and eat with me, otherwise it’s really boring for me to face these ancient men alone. Hehe, after dinner, you can take me out for a stroll. It’s my first time in Japan, I don’t know what Osaka’s nightlife is like."
Upon hearing this, Xu Xin’s eyes lit up, looking expectantly at Yang Fei.
This was perfect. As long as this distinguished guest wanted to go out, he wouldn’t have to sneak away covertly, and he believed that bringing one extra person along should hopefully not offend Yamamoto Sosuke and Senior Chiba.
