Chapter 1076: Chapter 1076: One Sword Disperses Ten Thousand Demons

Su Chengyu chuckled lightly and didn’t pay too much attention to the other party’s resentment.

It wasn’t hard to guess that the female ninja was a member of the Shinazugawa clan. Although her ninja techniques were not bad, Su Chengyu was all too familiar with that prima donna attitude of hers.

Contemptuous of others and holding herself in high estimation, her actions and behavior carried arrogance and conceit. These habits confirmed for Su Chengyu that Qianying must have been spoiled since childhood, a true daughter of a noble family.

Unlike the Yihe, the Koga Ninja Clan did adopt outsiders, but outsiders as direct heirs would never receive the true transmission of the Koga Clan, let alone become a disciple of a Shadow-rank Ninja.

Qianying could only belong to either the Shinazugawa or the Imperial Clan, but if it were the latter, Su Chengyu truly didn’t believe she would have the audacity to charge into the Liuli Golden Palace alone.

After all, there was only one princess in the world who was so unyieldingly independent like the one in Lin An.

Su Chengyu was almost certain that the female ninja was the young miss of the Shinazugawa house.

"The Koga clan?"

Su Chengyu blinked, then rose and returned to his residence.

As soon as he entered the house, Hua Qian, who noticed the noise, came out from the inner room and asked with concern, "Mr. Su, what happened?"

Su Chengyu glanced around in confusion and asked, "Has someone from the Liuli Country come over?"

Hua Qian nodded, "The people from the diplomatic envoy were all interrogated, but it seems they didn’t suspect us much. They just asked briefly about Mr. Su’s whereabouts and then left."

Su Chengyu nodded, realizing that their goal probably wasn’t him after all, but to question their true target, they inevitably had to interrogate everyone staying at the embassy.

"There was an unexpected incident, but it’s alright. They haven’t suspected us."

Whether escaping or confronting the enemy, the methods used were all that of Shinazugawa Sanemi, and they would find the embassy, likely because there were also people from Dongying living here.

Su Chengyu looked around and indeed found traces of Shinazugawa Sanemi’s presence within the embassy.

It was obvious, however, that she hadn’t realized he too was residing there.

"Has your Hua family had contact with people from Dongying?"

Su Chengyu turned and asked Hua Qian.

Hua Qian shook her head, "Although Hua Yingrong has always been looking for channels to sell Zhuming Tears to Dongying and Xia Country, both sides are very cautious about this, so he has never managed to establish a direct relationship."

This was the inconvenience of being located in Liuli Country. While it was possible to associate with both nations, each side would be very wary of you.

Before fully gaining their trust, stepping out of Liuli Country was extremely difficult.

For this trip to Dongying Country, Su Chengyu obviously had to rely completely on himself.

But he wasn’t in a hurry. Although it didn’t disrupt his plans, Su Chengyu hadn’t placed all his hopes on Dongying’s side.

He was confident he could completely manipulate Shinazugawa Sanemi, but he wasn’t arrogant enough to think he could directly confront the entire Koga Clan and the Imperial Clan backing them.

Making a pact with the tiger was, after all, a last resort; the Liuli Country within reach was the easier prey to deal with.

As Su Chengyu pondered this, he and Hua Qian, sensing the arrival of someone, almost simultaneously looked up.

Hua Qian stood up and said, "I’ll go open the door. Mr. Su, you continue to pretend you’re in seclusion."

Just now, Hua Qian had used this excuse to casually dismiss the guards who came knocking.

But this time, with the person returning, it was clear that it wouldn’t be someone as simple as a guard.

When Hua Qian opened the door, a woman dressed in a gold-trimmed witch outfit appeared at the entrance, speaking before Hua Qian could, "Are you the Hua family’s Hua Qian?"

Hua Qian bowed slightly and respectfully said to the witch, "Hua Qian pays respects to the Grand Witch."

Although it was her first time meeting Chiyomiko, the iconic gold-trimmed witch outfit was enough for Hua Qian to determine the other’s identity.

Chiyomiko nodded slightly and looked inside the house, "Where is the person who came here with you? I want to see him."

Hua Qian replied with confusion, "Mr. Su is an honored guest invited by the Hua family. He is currently in seclusion, and I shouldn’t disturb him. May I ask what business the Royal Witch has?"

Chiyomiko narrowed her eyes, revealing a hint of menace, "Now that a city-wide search is underway, seeing him means there’s no issue. But if I don’t, then I can’t make any promises."

A murderous intent surged, as Chiyomiko made no effort to conceal her anger at that moment, seemingly ready to vent all of the threats she had faced within the Golden Palace upon this place.

Seeing Hua Qian’s slightly troubled expression, Chiyomiko pressed further, "What? Could it be that he is not actually here?"

"Of course not. It’s just that..."

"No matter, since the Royal Witch has personally visited, I ought to end my seclusion and meet her,"

Following the sound of Su Chengyu’s voice, Su Chengyu finally pushed open the sliding doors, walked out from the inner room, and bowed to Chiyomiko.

Chiyomiko openly gauged Su Chengyu’s strength with her gaze, and seeing through the power that Su Chengyu did not bother to hide, she asked, "Was it you who helped the Hua family and the Dragon Carp clan stand back up?"

Su Chengyu smiled, "Grand Witch, could the former acquaintance of Hua Yingrong on Liuli Island be you?"

Chiyomiko scoffed, "Rest assured, it’s not me."

"Then who is it?"

"The present Empress."

Su Chengyu’s brows furrowed in surprise.

Could it be that this Hua Yingrong also had a relationship with the current Empress of the Liuli Country?

If that were true, then Hua Yingrong’s role on Liuli Island really does seem to be that of the main character.

Upon hearing this news, Hua Qian beside him was even more astonished than Su Chengyu, to the point where she began to doubt whether coming to Liuli Island was a wise choice after all.

"Mr. Su, are you nervous?"

Su Chengyu smiled, "The one who should be nervous isn’t me, right?"

"Oh?"

Chiyomiko looked at Su Chengyu as if she didn’t understand.

"Grand Witch, since you already know I come from Xia Country, why the need for such probing?"

The identity fabricated for Su Chengyu by the Hua family did not include the Su surname, but the moment the other party mentioned ’Mr. Su’, Su Chengyu knew that they had likely grasped some details about him.

"May I ask if Mr. Su is from the Demon Slayer Department or the Dragon Soul Department?" Chiyomiko continued questioning.

"Dragon Soul Department? I’m not familiar with it."

Chiyomiko’s expression shifted, and after pondering for a moment, she bowed her hands and said, "Then, I hope Mr. Su’s trip goes smoothly."

Su Chengyu nodded and did not escort Chiyomiko out.

After they left with the group, the Grand Witch, who followed by Chiyomiko’s side, couldn’t help but ask, "Grand Witch, is this person truly from the Demon Hunting Office of Xia Nation?"

Chiyomiko gave her a glance, "Otherwise, how could his Golden Core strength have helped the Hua family and the Dragon Carp clan overturn their situation and reclaim the position of Family Head? After returning, report to the Empress that a representative from the Demon Hunting Office of Xia Nation has arrived."

After hearing this, the Grand Witch was still somewhat puzzled, "But wasn’t the Demon Slayer Department known for their extremely tough stance against the Demon Clan? Why would they be involved with the Dragon Carp clan of the Hua family?"

"You are asking me, but whom shall I ask? However... the Demon Slayer Department wasn’t like this before."

Chiyomiko’s gaze drifted off, vividly recalling the great war a hundred years ago that had engulfed the entire world.

Back then, that man, with his sword alone, cut across the land before the Golden Palace of Liuli, a scene of vanquishing countless demons that Chiyomiko would never forget in her lifetime.

Suddenly, as if remembering something, Chiyomiko muttered to herself, "That person also had the surname Su."
