Chapter 342: Chapter 341: [Never Cowardly, War Blood Boiling]"Sato’s strength was already formidable, something I hadn’t expected, it seems the rumors about Japan’s North Star One-Cut Flow being able to rival our China’s Shaolin and Wudang, the two great Ancient Martial Sects, aren’t just hot air. On my way back, I estimated that my strength and Sato’s are closely matched, and if Japan’s genetic mutation drugs are indeed perfected, they could even help Japan dominate the world!" Ye Tianchen spoke with an undeniable touch of concern. This wasn’t an alarmist’s hyperbole. One could imagine how these gene mutation drugs, capable of instantly unleashing a person’s potential, multiplying their combat power several-fold, would turn someone like Sato into neither human nor ghost, but rather a monster. Despite the inherent flaws of these gene mutation drugs, such as consuming one’s Life Force as the price, rendering almost no hope of survival for those who take it, the ruthless Japanese might sacrifice all their soldiers to achieve their aim of world dominion, considering the sacrifice of their own people a trivial matter for their government, known for its cruelty and internal strife. Hearing Ye Tianchen’s words, Wuxue and Hu Long were undoubtedly shocked. They had not expected North Star One-Cut Flow’s Sato to be so powerful, nor had they anticipated the potency of the genetic mutation drugs researched by Japan. After taking the gene mutation drug, Sato almost defeated Ye Tianchen without allowing him any chance to fight back. He narrowly escaped death. The fierceness of that force was truly terrifying, as Ye Tianchen himself was a man of unfathomable strength. Anyone could imagine the horrifying degree of that battle, seeing how close it had brought Ye Tianchen to his limits. "Sato’s ranking within the top ten of the North Star One-Cut Flow indicates that he wasn’t even the strongest among them. It seems the North Star One-Cut Flow really should not be underestimated!" Wuxue said with astonishment. "Indeed, with Sato’s death, the North Star One-Cut Flow will certainly come for revenge. They might very well send experts to China to assassinate me!" Ye Tianchen said, revealing a trace of a smile at the corner of his mouth. "Big brother, doesn’t that put you in great danger? We need to prepare for this!" Hu Long said, somewhat anxious. This wasn’t about bolstering the enemy’s morale and diminishing our own. It was about objectively tackling the issue. Japan’s national power was indeed not comparable to China’s; however, the strength of the North Star One-Cut Flow was genuinely formidable. Underestimating the enemy would only result in heavy losses on our side. "I am telling you this because I have orders for you," Ye Tianchen said as he looked at Wuxue and Hu Long. The next moment, both Wuxue and Hu Long stood up, standing erect in front of Ye Tianchen, awaiting his commands. Although Ye Tianchen had never treated them like subordinates, but rather as friends and brothers, and had never flaunted his seniority in front of the Thirteen Heavenly Kings, they had gradually sensed Ye Tianchen’s strength and his domineering presence. Despite their big brother being young, the capabilities he displayed were enough to command the respect of the highly skilled Thirteen Heavenly Kings. There is no order without rules. Usually, they could joke and mess around, but when it came to serious matters, it had to be full of earnestness and gravity. "Please give your orders, big brother!" Wuxue and Hu Long said in unison. "From now on, the Thirteen Heavenly Kings will enter an intensive training phase. As for the specific training programs, Wuxue, Wang Jie, and Bao Tianglong will consider that. The goal is to enhance the Thirteen Heavenly Kings’ combat power in a short time, especially our level of collective combat capability," Ye Tianchen commanded with seriousness. "Yes, big brother!" Ye Tianchen had already contemplated that the North Star One-Cut Flow’s strength was something that could not be taken lightly. This time in Black Mist Forest, he had killed Sato and eradicated the young generation of the "Four Great Killing Kings" of the North Star One-Cut Flow, annihilating everyone they had sent to cause trouble at the border. This would definitely cause a huge uproar within the North Star One-Cut Flow and even throughout Japan. The Japanese are known for their strong sense of retaliation; hence, from every consideration, the North Star One-Cut Flow would certainly seek revenge, and Japan would undoubtedly support the North Star One-Cut Flow in this vengeance. This incident would likely reach the ears of other nations. Even though it was an underhanded affair, it would turn Japan into a laughingstock, bolstering China’s reputation. Everyone knew that Japan’s North Star One-Cut Flow was strong and had sent numerous experts to provoke troubles at the Black Mist Forest border. With them all killed, China’s might was revealed, and it would be a surprise if Japan wasn’t ridiculed by others. The attack by the North Star One-Cut Flow was something Ye Tianchen had long anticipated. To him, however, it represented an excellent opportunity for experience. It was a good chance for himself and an even better one for the Thirteen Heavenly Kings, who would gain a significant amount of actual combat experience from clashing with the experts of the North Star One-Cut Flow, especially if they encountered the very top experts of the North Star One-Cut Flow in the future. The Thirteen Heavenly Kings had only recently formed, and although each Heavenly King was very strong, there were still some flaws. Cooperation and unity in particular were poor, with each member exhibiting too much individual heroism. To forge the Thirteen Heavenly Kings into an invincible team required further training, and the abundance of masters within the North Star One-Cut Flow provided an unparalleled opportunity.

"Wuxue, you can inform the others that our opponents are strong this time and that those who are not up to par will lose their lives. This is not a game. I hope everyone will strive to strengthen their training," Ye Tianchen reminded emphatically, feeling the pressure of this challenge. "Big brother, the helm of the Northern Dipper Sword School is controlled by the Sword Emperor; he’s an unimaginably formidable opponent!" Wuxue said with some concern. "There’s no need to worry about that. The Northern Dipper Sword School won’t take us too seriously yet because of Sato’s matter, especially someone like the Sword Emperor who ranks among the world’s top ten strongest. If he were to act over such a trivial matter, then he wouldn’t be much of a Sword Emperor. However, if the Sword Emperor really does take action, I will spare no expense to eliminate him!" Ye Tianchen’s eyes sparkled with the light of boiling war blood, without a hint of fear, even in the face of an opponent like the Sword Emperor who he may not yet be able to defeat. This is the aspect of his character that is akin to that of the Death God; the stronger his opponent, the stronger he becomes. "Then big brother, we’ll go down and get ready!" Hu Long said. "Right, ask Lin Duan to bring the Taie Sword over," Ye Tianchen contemplated before speaking. After Wuxue and Hu Long left the villa, Ye Tianchen turned and walked upstairs. He knew that Xiao Ya was still very sad inside; after all, her mother had just passed away. No one could emerge from that grief so quickly. All he could do right now was to be by Xiao Ya’s side, to accompany this kind girl through the most difficult period of her life. At times like these, there was no need to say much or do anything—just being there silently was enough. After climbing the second floor, Ye Tianchen found Xiao Ya in his study, curiously engrossed in a book, so absorbed that she did not even notice his presence as he entered and continued to read intently. "Yaer, if you like this book, I’ll give it to you," Ye Tianchen said with a smile. "Are you done with your matters?" Xiao Ya asked. "Yes, are you hungry? Let’s go eat something. You haven’t been eating or sleeping well these past few days," Ye Tianchen expressed his concern. "It’s okay, shall I cook noodles for you?" Xiao Ya proposed to cook noodles for Ye Tianchen. He gave it some thought and agreed. He couldn’t always be "taking care" of Xiao Ya; doing so would keep her immersed in the sorrow of her mother’s passing. She could only gradually come out of her grief by returning to her normal life. Plus, Ye Tianchen wanted Xiao Ya to live in the villa with him, so it was good for her to get used to the environment. Soon, Xiao Ya came out with two bowls of steaming noodles. One bowl had a fried egg on top, the other did not and contained very few noodles; likely the portion she prepared for herself. Ye Tianchen didn’t say anything and just smiled as he took the bowl. Truth be told, the passing of Xiao Ya’s mother was too sudden for Ye Tianchen, something he had not expected. He had thought that with Zhang Yide’s Dragon Marrow Pill shards, Xiao Ya’s mother could live at least another two years. But he hadn’t anticipated the illness to worsen so rapidly. There were many things beyond human control, which bolstered Ye Tianchen’s determination to unravel the mystery of Eternal Life. "Wow, this tastes good, Yaer! I didn’t know you could cook so well!" Ye Tianchen said as he heartily devoured the noodles and praised her. "Sure, if you want, I’ll cook for you often!" Xiao Ya nodded and said. At that moment, Ye Tianchen moved the fried egg from his bowl into Xiao Ya’s. Before she could refuse, he gently held her small hand and looked at her earnestly and tenderly, "Yaer, I know you’re deeply hurt inside, but I hope you can pick yourself up. I heard from your father that you have always been an obedient and sensible girl with excellent academic performance. Your mother often bragged about you to others. I believe if she saw you like this now, she wouldn’t just avoid praising you, she would be very sad. So all you need to do is to be the outstanding daughter that she acknowledged!" Upon hearing Ye Tianchen’s words, Xiao Ya was taken aback, looking at the man before her, she suddenly felt that he was so excellent, so kind to her. He wasn’t just any carefree man; Ye Tianchen had his unique personality traits and distinctive qualities! (To be continued.
