strength had long surpassed the level of elite soldiers, he was a king!……After the draw, the second round of matches will begin soon.The first match was between the Silver Blade Force of the Huaibei M...They won't let us leave Dongri Island easily. 。Fāng Yǔ said. 。"You mean to say that the Matsuo family and the Ueda family, would attack us" Zheng Ze was taken aback and asked. 。Maybe, but it's not necessarily that simple. 。"Fang Yu said" 。"Mr. Fang, I'm quite slow-witted, could you please explain the situation to me..." Zheng Ze scratched his head and said, 。Fāngyǔ picked up the mineral water on the table and took a sip. 。Today we went to the dock, met Saito Kazuhiro, and then went to the residence of the Agi family. 。Then, we met two other families from the Otsutsuki clan: Matsui Tai of the Matsui family and Utadagawa Kawan of the Utadagawa family. 。“Fang Yu said, ‘Then the royal priest also appeared. There were quite a few people present, from various factions as well.’” 。"Don't you think that's strange" "We just went for a spin around the Hashiba family estate, and we ran into so many different factions." 。As for this point, Mr. Saito had already explained it before we went. 。Zheng Ze frowned and said: 。He has mentioned it, but that doesn't mean it's justifiable. 。"Fang Yu said, 'So many people are crowded in the Hakugi family's place to play mahjong An investigation There is no reason for a big shot from the family to come out and investigate personally! Just send someone down to investigate!'

'Especially that royal priestess, it's even more outrageous. She's dressed extremely brightly and beautifully, adorned with elegance, and there's even a strong scent of perfume on her body. She looks like an old noble who cares about appearances.'" 。"Would someone like that, "

" come to a bloody place like the Hagi clan to investigate"

Zheng Ze listened to Fang Yu's words, his brows furrowed even deeper, and asked, "Mr. Fang, what you mean is... these people appearing in the Hagi clan were actually arranged beforehand"

"It's very likely, of course, there's still a possibility it was just a coincidence." 。"Fang Yu said" 。"But what was the point of them appearing like that" Zheng Ze asked, "They didn't accomplish anything in the end, were they just here to meet us""It wasn't about meeting us," the other replied. "It was about creating a conflict under the watchful eyes of many." 。"Fang Yu said," 。"So, what you're saying is that Matsuo..." Zheng Ze's expression changed as he asked. 。"Yes, this person is acting incredibly stupid, like they're deliberately trying to pick a fight with me." 。"Fang Yu said, “So, I think this conflict was arranged in advance.” 。"What's the point of doing this" Zheng Ze rubbed his temples and asked. 。"I think what they care about now isn't the destruction of the two families." 。> 。"

'It's not this, then what is it…' Zheng Ze was completely baffled." 。"Think back carefully, recently, has there been any other dealings between Tojo Island and your martial arts association" Fang Yu asked. 。

Zheng Ze frowned, deep in thought. 。Soon, he slapped his thigh and said: "A while back, the Tianren organization from Dongri Island contacted the teacher. They wanted to send people to our Yanxia to enter those ancient ruins that have been opened..." 。"

But the teacher rejected this idea." 。"Before I left for work this morning, my teacher mentioned this again and told me if anyone asked about it, to just refuse. " 。"I almost forgot what the teacher instructed me to do..."

Hearing this, Fang Yu's eyes flickered, and he smiled faintly: "That's right, the various forces on Dongri Island joined forces to put on a show... it should be for this matter." 。"Speaking of which, Fang Yu shook his head again and said, "Huixu is really... Just speak directly if you have something to say, why do you have to keep me in the dark and waste so much time." 。Zheng Ze was still full of doubts and asked, "Mr. Fang, what did the teacher really mean..." "The various forces on Dongri Island all want to enter the ancient ruins, but without Huixu's consent, they dare not enter Yanxia. This is a prerequisite..." 。"Fang Yu said, "Since that's the case, if they want to enter the ancient ruins, they have to find other ways to coerce Huixu into agreeing." 。Then, they started to build the stage. First, they let us come on stage, and then they had Matsuo Ta run over and start a conflict. 。This play has attracted a lot of audience already. 。The banquet tonight should have more people, and then Matsuo will probably make an appearance again. 。This time, it is the climax of this play. 。They will provoke us to act, and then take advantage of the situation to incite public anger against us. 。Then, they could openly attack us both and subdue us...and then notify Huixu to negotiate terms. 。。They are in the wrong for doing this. 。If you anger the ones with hollow hearts, and directly lead an attack against them, they won't be able to withstand it. 。"Fang Yu said, "But if you anger us into taking action, it will provoke the wrath of the masses." 。So in the public opinion arena, they achieved victory. 。You cannot bring people to Dongri Island by force to rescue them out of desperation. 。Otherwise, even in the heat of summer, many people would find this behavior disgraceful, and the Martial Arts Association's reputation would be ruined.

"Speaking of which, they really understand Huai Xu's personality... This approach is indeed effective for Huai Xu." 。"But unfortunately, the person who came this time is..." 。Zheng Ze stopped, already stunned. 。Luckily, Mr. Fang came this time. 。Otherwise, with his level of ability, he wouldn't be able to see through this situation at all. 。Then, Mr. Fang, how do you plan to deal with this Zheng Ze asked after taking a moment to compose himself. 。Logically speaking, we shouldn't attend the banquet tonight; otherwise, we'll fall into their trap. 。"Fang Yu said" 。After that, Fang Yu showed a hint of coldness and said, “However, I’m not willing to do so.” 。"

I still need to attend tonight's banquet" 。Otherwise, they will come up with other ways. 。Since there are a lot of people tonight, might as well get everything done at once. 。Of course, my way of responding, I'm afraid it might not be something Wai Xu likes. 。But...I don't want to spend so much energy thinking of other ways. 。"Mr. Fang, your way is..." Zheng Ze asked in confusion. 。It's simple, one force can overcome ten. 。 。However, the fact that so many forces can temporarily put aside the major event of the two clans being destroyed and unite to put on a show is enough to show how deeply they crave the ancient ruins. 。What is their understanding of the ancient ruins Why are they so eager to enter the ancient ruins

7:00 PM, Royal Manor 。The hall was resplendent, with gold adorning even the stone pillars, radiating an air of opulence and extravagance. 。At this moment, many guests are standing in the living room. 。Some people are wearing suits, while many others are dressed in traditional Japanese clothing. 。In the center of the hall, there is a lift-able dance floor. 。When Fang Yu and Zheng Ze arrived, the hall was already quite crowded with guests, making the space feel a bit cramped. 。Mr. Fang, as you predicted, a lot of people ... 。Zheng Ze said 。

Fang Yu looked around, there were indeed a lot of people. 。Generally, the number of guests invited to a banquet is determined by the size of the venue. 。

The current situation is that the number has obviously exceeded the limit. 。The hall was packed with people, making it difficult to even move. 。Such a banquet would inevitably provide guests with a terrible experience. 。Regular royal banquets, how could such a mistake happen

The other party's purpose is already very obvious, that is to have more audience and create public opinion. 。Fang Yu and Zheng Ze stood among the crowd for a few minutes, Saitou Ichi appearing from somewhere. 。"Are royal banquets always this lively" Fang Yu asked. 。Yes, all parties have been honored with invitations to the royal feast. 。Therefore, there's no reason not to come if you are invited. 。"Ichiro Saitou said" 。

"I see." 。"Fang Yu nodded in agreement, indulging Saito's ramblings." 。After a while, there was suddenly a commotion in the hall. 。Princess Mingzi arrived. 。said Saito Kazuma 。"Who is Princess Mingzi" Fang Yu asked. 。She is the Imperial Princess, Fumihito's daughter. 。"Saito said, "She's the dream girl of many young people in Tohoku." 。Between the words, the stage in the middle of the hall slowly rose. 。From Fang Yu's position, she could clearly see a woman in a white evening gown standing on stage. 。This woman is indeed quite pretty, and her bearing suits a noblewoman. 。As soon as she appeared, cheers and applause filled the air, like a personal concert. 。"Next, I will introduce two guests who have traveled far to be here. They are Mr. Zheng Ze and his assistant, Mr. Xiao Yu." 。After a brief opening remark, Fukuzawa Yukichi suddenly changed the subject. 。u waved friendly to them, then thought of something >>> 。Where did Bai Ran go Fang Yu was startled, remembering that before leaving the castle, he had instructed Bai Ran to watch over Gary. 。And Gar...
