Chapter 1095: Chapter 1095: Qianying’s Perplexity

Dongying ninjas appeared even before the institutional system of the Dawn Harbor Emperor was fully established.

In history, the connection between ninjas and the Demon Clan was far less than those with Dongying’s other two characteristic professions, Onmyoji and Witch.

The former absolutely required the skills to control demons, while the latter was naturally born with a synergistic and antagonistic relationship with the Demon Clan.

There were few tales about the interactions between ninjas and the Demon Clan.

The only thing worth mentioning is that there were indeed members of the Demon Clan in the history of ninjas.

The cultivation techniques practiced by ninjas were extremely unique. Unlike the Onmyoji and witchcraft which could only be practiced by humans, the ninja techniques were similar to those of cultivators and could be cultivated by both the ninjas themselves and the Demon Clan.

However, those from the Demon Clan who practiced Ninjutsu, an alternative and inferior approach to the Dao they naturally followed, were indeed very rare.

The man they were currently facing was a member of the Demon Clan.

"Sky Burial Gale!"

Along with the man’s roar, the masked ninja who had moved silently above Su Chengyu’s head, rushed down with his sword aiming for Su Chengyu’s skull.

The fierceness of the attack was far beyond any testing; it clearly intended to kill Su Chengyu outright with this single blow.

The man was also very confident that this strike, if unleashed, would injure anyone with a strength comparable to his, even a Shadow-rank ninja!

However, just when the masked man thought his attack was about to succeed, Su Chengyu suddenly looked up. A Long Halberd appeared in his hands, landing exactly on the sword’s tip.

A tremendous impact came from the halberd, engulfing the masked man in a vast aura in an instant. The chilling Qi of Slaughter instantly broke through the man’s bodily defenses, directly invading his Primordial Spirit!

Puft!

A spray of fresh blood burst forth from the man’s mouth, instantly neutralizing the lethal sword strike. The man collapsed onto the ground.

From his superior position, Su Chengyu coldly looked down at the masked man and said, "It’s ironic, because overcoming superiors is something I am also very good at."

Overcoming superiors, or overcoming enemies from higher realms, was something in which Su Chengyu was incredibly experienced.

Su Chengyu knew that to win, one must be willing to risk it all amidst dangers.

The other’s decisive approach was precisely the costly method of trading injury for death, something Su Chengyu frequently utilized.

Once understood, it became much easier to break down.

There was no possibility of evasion; facing this kind of tactic, one just needed to withstand it head-on. Even if he got injured, his opponent would certainly suffer much more serious damage, or even die from the backlash.

The fact proved just so; the masked man’s sudden strike indeed had tremendous lethal force, but he had almost no protection over his body.

When the Qi of Slaughter released by the Wasteland Sky Halberd interfered with him, his position was immediately thrown into chaos. Without even striking back, Su Chengyu watched as the opponent was already devastated by the backlash.

Seeing the man spitting blood and disoriented, Su Chengyu softly said, "Besides, if we really talk about realms, you should be superior to me."

Shadow level corresponds to the Nascent Soul realm, and this man indeed possessed the strength of the Early Stage of Nascent Soul, comparable to Shinazugawa Sanemi.

It’s just unfortunate that the Early Stage of Nascent Soul is no longer considered significant in Su Chengyu’s eyes.

If not for the Dragon Sword currently suffering from damage, with a retaliation strike from Su Chengyu, the opponent’s fate would have been even more miserable.

It’s not that the Dragon Sword is now stronger than the Wasteland Sky Halberd, but Su Chengyu generally does not use Mana when wielding the Wasteland Sky Halberd.

Without the enhancement of Mana, the Wasteland Sky Halberd is just an exceptionally sharp ordinary weapon.

"Impossible!"

The man spoke with difficulty, blood gushing from his mouth.

Su Chengyu, too indifferent to explain anything further, lifted the Wasteland Sky Halberd, ready to deliver the final blow.

"Wait a minute!"

Just as Su Chengyu’s blow was about to land, the voice of Shinazugawa Sanemi suddenly rang out from the doorway, causing Su Chengyu to halt his action.

Shinazugawa Sanemi hurried over to the man, checking to ensure that there was no immediate threat to his life before sighing with relief, "Thank goodness, he’s alright."

"He’s alright for now, not for long."

Su Chengyu spoke coldly. Although he had paused, the intense qi of slaughter had not yet dispersed.

Shinazugawa Sanemi frowned and immediately explained to Su Chengyu, "He is also grandpa’s direct disciple. If you kill him, grandpa will never let it go!"

"So what? He attacked me first, and besides... are you daring to say that this wasn’t the Koka Clan’s intent?"

Su Chengyu was unrelenting. Although he did not want to provoke a Shadow-level ninja, he was not afraid to do so either.

Upon hearing this, Shinazugawa Sanemi quickly shook his head, "This is absolutely not grandpa’s intent! I have already discussed your proposed deal with him, and he has agreed to it. Grandpa always keeps his promises and would never secretly order an attack on you."

Though Su Chengyu was not entirely convinced, he still asked, "Where is the item?"

Shinazugawa Sanemi was taken aback, then quickly responded, "Grandpa has personally gone to Kyoto to fetch it. At the earliest, he will return the day after tomorrow to make the trade with you."

"To make the trade, or to kill me?"

Su Chengyu asked sharply.

Shinazugawa Sanemi hurriedly said, "I swear! The Koka Clan absolutely has no intention of killing and robbing. I swear on the Koka Clan’s family crest!"

Although ninjas are not martyrs, fearlessness has always been the first lesson in their cultivation.

Of course, in the heart of every ninja lies something more important than life, and the family crest is often one of those things.

Although Su Chengyu did not fully believe Shinazugawa Sanemi’s words, considering that the latter held a God-ranked elixir, he did not want to break off their dealings just yet.

Su Chengyu walked over to the injured man beside him, "If it wasn’t the Koka Clan’s intent, why did you try to kill me?"

Shinazugawa Sanemi’s gaze also fell on her junior brother, equally puzzled why he would attack Su Chengyu, especially since she had explicitly instructed him to tread carefully around Su Chengyu before she left.

However, the man remained silent, clearly unwilling to explain.

"Do you really think I won’t dare kill you just because she’s here?"

Su Chengyu did not care about the man’s life or death. A cultivator in the Initial Stage of Nascent Soul could hardly handle him now and would pose even less of a threat later.

But since the other party had attacked him, Su Chengyu had no intention of letting him go without an explanation.

Feeling Su Chengyu’s intense qi of slaughter, Shinazugawa Sanemi became quite anxious, knowing that if Su Chengyu really dealt a fatal blow, their previously agreed trade would entirely fall apart.

"Junior brother! Speak up, why in the world did you do it?"

The man was startled, his expression complex as he glanced at Shinazugawa Sanemi and after taking a deep breath, he defiantly said, "I just don’t like you, is that okay?"

Shinazugawa Sanemi’s brow tightened, about to speak, when Su Chengyu unexpectedly spoke first to her utter surprise.

"Fine, you can go."
