Chapter 664: Chapter 664: Seizing a Body to Rebirth!

Tang Zhong’s tyrannical and uncompromising massacre of the Caozhi Family spread rapidly among the martial artists of Bei Country.

In an instant, every person involved in the martial arts of Bei Country knew of a man surnamed Tang from Xuan Country who had come to Bei Country and slaughtered the people of the Caozhi Family.

The entire Bei Country martial arts community was shocked, after all, it was members of the Caozhi Family who had been killed.

The Caozhi Family was one of the great families of Bei Country, not just anyone could kill them, which meant that this person from Xuan Country had a status that was by no means simple.

But as it challenged the martial artists of Bei Country, they all declared that if they encountered this person from Xuan Country, they would surely stop and kill him.

However, very soon, news of the deaths of Bei Country martial artists continued to emerge.

And the commonality among these deaths of Bei Country martial artists was that, before their deaths, they had all crossed hands with someone from Xuan Country.

When recalling this so-called person from Xuan Country, everyone could think of that man who had killed the entire Caozhi Family.

Even more people had no idea who this so-called person from Xuan Country was, they just knew he deserved to die.

Finally, there were survivors who lived through the massacre, but their conditions were dire.

At this moment, inside a bamboo hut.

An elder sat cross-legged with eyes closed, dressed in the attire of Bei Country, appearing extremely aged—this person was Inoue Kazuo.

The sliding door of the bamboo hut was opened by someone.

Inoue Tomo walked in slowly, approaching the elder without a word.

Then Inoue Kazuo opened his eyes, "How is it? Is there any news of Keiko?"

In the past few days, Inoue Kazuo had been searching for news of his beloved granddaughter, but despite trying several times, there had been no results.

"There is still no news, but there is another piece of information. Among the people from Bei Country who died in Xuan Country, there was a woman," said Inoue Tomo.

Inoue Kazuo’s gaze became sharp in an instant, "Are you suggesting that this woman is Keiko?"

"I don’t know, Father, I just think it’s possible!" Inoue Tomo replied.

No sooner had the words left his mouth than Inoue Kazuo became enraged, "I want you to shut up, send someone to Xuan Country to find Keiko, and make sure to bring her back safe and sound!"

Inoue Keiko was Inoue Kazuo’s most beloved granddaughter, and he did not want to see anything happen to her.

Inoue Tomo dared not delay, and promptly nodded, "Yes, Father, I will do my utmost!"

"You may leave," said Inoue Kazuo.

"Yes..." Inoue Tomo nodded, but instead of leaving immediately, he continued, "Father, recently many have died in the martial arts world of Bei Country, and the person who killed them is a martial artist from Xuan Country!"

At the mention of a martial artist from Xuan Country, Inoue Kazuo’s brow furrowed, and his mind quickly recalled another person from Xuan Country from ten years ago, causing his heartbeat to quicken. What was that person’s surname?

"It seems the surname is Tang..." said Inoue Tomo.

Instantly, Inoue Kazuo’s eyes narrowed, and he muttered to himself, "Surname Tang!"

That person from ten years ago also had the surname Tang; could he still be alive? Thinking of that man made Inoue Kazuo shudder with fear, but remembering that his bones and flesh had been buried on the road in front of his house made him relax a little.

"Father, this person is now indiscriminately slaughtering the martial artists of Bei Country. Although we don’t know his reasons, he has already caused public outrage. Should we take action?" Inoue Tomo said.

"We must take action!" Inoue Kazuo immediately replied.

As long as his surname is Tang, he absolutely cannot be allowed to live; otherwise, it will be a nightmare for the entire Bei Country. Wasn’t that the case with the man before? If they hadn’t joined hands to deal with him, then ten years ago, the entire martial arts community of Bei Country would have been annihilated.

"Many martial artists from Bei Country are imploring our Inoue Family to intervene!" Inoue Tomo said.

"Why us? There are so many families. The Caozhi Family, the Bashen Family, aren’t any of them capable?" Inoue Kazuo asked.

"The Caozhi Family has already been destroyed!"

"What?"

Suddenly, Inoue Kazuo thought of something, his pupils dilated sharply as he looked at Inoue Tomo in front of him and demanded, "What about the shrine ritual at Mount Futami now?"

"The shrine ritual has been destroyed as well... The entire Caozhi Family was slaughtered at Mount Futami with a single sword strike!" Inoue Tomo replied.

"Damn it..." Inoue Kazuo swore through clenched teeth, "You may leave now!"

"Yes!" Inoue Tomo did not dare disobey his father’s wishes and quickly backed away.

Soon, only Inoue Kazuo was left in the room, his face a ghastly sight. Seeing that Inoue Tomo had left, he hurriedly rose, walked over to a wooden cabinet, and turned a ceramic vase on it. The entire wooden cabinet began to split apart, revealing a secret chamber.

Inside the secret chamber was an ancient coffin, very old and clearly aged. If one looked closely, one could discern the age of the coffin!

Inoue Kazuo knelt on the ground and bowed to the coffin, respectfully saying, "My lord... There’s been trouble at the Mount Futami shrine ritual!"

Soon, a deep voice came from inside the coffin.

"What?"

"You asked me to use the power of myriad artifacts to refine your body for you. I entrusted this task to the Caozhi Family, but it failed, disrupted by a man from Xuan Country!" Inoue Kazuo reported.

"I can feel it, my arm, it’s gone!" the voice from inside the coffin declared again.

"Rest assured, my lord, I will definitely kill that man from Xuan Country!" Inoue Kazuo vowed.

"No... What I wish more is for you to capture that man from Xuan Country. I can sense he is the same as me, so I need you to bring him to me. Then, I will use his body to resurrect!" the voice from inside the coffin instructed once more.

"Yes..." Inoue Kazuo began, "My lord can resurrect using a human body? Why not let me find a young person, kill him, and let you return to life!" Inoue Kazuo suggested.

"I want that person’s body. I just need you to do as I command. As for the rest, I will make my own decisions. Furthermore, I do not take kindly to others making decisions for me. Let there not be a next time!" the voice from inside the coffin warned.

Inoue Kazuo’s face went pale upon hearing this. He fell to his knees, hastily bowing, "Please spare me, my lord, please spare me... I will carry out your commands to the letter!"

"Then leave quickly. I need to rest now. My soul is very powerful, and without a strong body to contain it... I grow very tired!" the coffin proclaimed.

"Yes!" Inoue Kazuo bowed his head and slowly left the place.

Once he had exited, the wooden cabinet closed back up.

Standing straight, Inoue Kazuo had not a single complaint against the being within the coffin, for it was with its help that he had transformed from a mere martial artist into a Martial Arts Peak.

If that being had decreed it, then the man from Xuan Country was as good as dead.
