Chapter 1935 - 1493: Sakura's Condition

Second update, asking for subscriptions, monthly tickets~~~...

Sakura's expression was extremely solemn, clearly agreeing to this matter wasn't something that could be easily settled with just a few words.

There might be incredibly unimaginable interests involved... it's just that Qin Fang and the others don't know the insider details, so they can't imagine it...

"What are the terms?"

Qin Fang was also a bit surprised, but after a moment of silence, he couldn't help but ask.

No matter what, since Sakura had already agreed, it indicated that this matter wasn't completely non-negotiable, so setting conditions was understandable.

Like in business, Qin Fang could quote sky-high prices, and Sakura could bargain down to earth...

"Help me kill someone..."

Sakura seemed a bit hesitant, but finally gritted her teeth and spoke.

"Kill someone?"

Hearing this condition, Qin Fang couldn't help but feel stunned, seemingly not expecting such terms.

However, Qin Fang didn't say much, he just asked calmly, "Who?"

Sakura's own strength was not weak, she was already a Semi-Grandmaster level expert, and her future achievements could be even higher. Reaching the Grandmaster level would not be too difficult, and even the Great Grandmaster level was not impossible.

As the Holy Woman of the Hokkaido Shrine, even if she failed in this Great Priest competition, there was still a significant chance she would become the Sect Master of the Hokkaido Shrine.

She would also become one of the six Deacons under the Great Divine Priest of the Dao Shen Sect, who were all almost Great Grandmaster-level experts...

But even so, Sakura seemed lacking in confidence when it came to killing this person, as if she could only kill this enemy after becoming the Great Divine Priest of the Dao Shen Sect, truly reaching that supreme status...

Even when Sakura showed such an expression, Qin Fang was extremely curious about her enemy, seemingly wanting to know his name.

"Amaterasu!"

Sakura gritted her teeth and then muttered a name.

"..."

Qin Fang was full of anticipation waiting for the answer, but when he finally heard this name, he couldn't help but be at a loss for words.

"Who is he?"

Because Qin Fang had never heard of this person, he even deliberately turned to look at Hattori Sanzo, but unfortunately, he also shrugged helplessly, shaking his head vigorously like a drum, clearly never having heard of him either...

"He is the Japan War God, and the top expert in all of Japan!"

Sakura seemed to anticipate Qin Fang and the others' reaction, then simply introduced, "Very few people know his name, and even fewer people have seen him... except for the Sect Masters of the Six Great Holy Lands and some Red-robed Priests of the Dao Shen Sect, no one else knows of his existence!"

"..."

For this introduction, it was basically no different from saying nothing, as if this person existed in legend.

Qin Fang even doubted whether Amaterasu truly existed... maybe he had died long ago.

"Old Qin, Amaterasu indeed exists..."

But before Sakura could speak, Monk Wukong suddenly spoke unexpectedly, and his expression was very ugly, glaring at Sakura, seemingly having the intention to strike her down.

"Who exactly are you?"

Without explaining too much to Qin Fang, Monk Wukong stared intently at Sakura and shouted in a fierce tone, indicating that this Amaterasu's identity was definitely not simple.

"He is my enemy... my whole family died at his hands! Is this explanation... enough?"

Sakura, however, showed no defense, instead openly stating.

After all, it would be useless even if she defended; Monk Wukong was already a Grandmaster-level expert, killing her wouldn't be too difficult, so it was better to be straightforward.

Monk Wukong said nothing further, retracting his murderous aura, but when his gaze fell on Qin Fang, he gently shook his head.

It was clear he wanted to tell Qin Fang that Sakura was very unreliable, and her words shouldn't be trusted too much.

"Amaterasu... Japan's top expert! Do you think I have the strength to kill him?"

Qin Fang definitely received Monk Wukong's reminder, but he continued talking with Sakura, if only to find out about Amaterasu's information, which was worth the inquiry in itself.

"I think you have the potential... I consider this an early investment!"

Sakura appeared quite straightforward, and bluntly stated that Qin Fang didn't need to act now, it was just a long-term goal.

"If I agree now, and later on find I'm not strong enough, can I give up?"

Qin Fang smiled, jokingly asking.

"Of course! This condition is not mandatory, you can take action when you feel capable of doing so..."

But what was unexpected was that Sakura seemed even more relaxed than him, as if this condition was just mentioned casually and not taken seriously at all.

However, from the fleeting murderous intent in her eyes, it could be seen that she indeed harbored hatred towards Amaterasu.

"Alas, what a pity..."

Qin Fang attempted to use the Mind Reading Technique on Sakura, but unfortunately, it failed. This woman's strength was formidable, and her mental resilience far exceeded that of ordinary people, so much so that the Mind Reading Technique still had no effect even now.

But Qin Fang found it quite normal. With Japan's top expert as her enemy, the pressure Sakura endured was imaginable...

Without a mental resilience far beyond an ordinary person's, she would have likely been crushed by this immense pressure long ago.

"Since this is the case, I might as well graciously comply..."

After some consideration, Qin Fang felt that this condition seemed to impose no real constraint on him, so naturally, there was no reason not to agree.

If in the future his strength reached the level where he could fight Amaterasu, Qin Fang wouldn't mind eliminating Japan's top expert either.

But if his strength didn't reach that level, then Qin Fang wouldn't bother fulfilling this condition and would simply pretend it didn't exist...

"I will also handle your matter as soon as possible! However, I may need to return to the Divine Palace for a while..."

Upon hearing Qin Fang agree, Sakura nodded slightly and said, "If you don't trust me, you can also place a restriction on me..."

"We'll talk about that when the time comes..."

Qin Fang waved his hand, feeling there was no need to go to such lengths now, as Sakura had not yet left.

Then, Qin Fang deliberately sought out Monk Wukong, and the two went aside to chat. Naturally, the topic of conversation was about Amaterasu.

"Despite Amaterasu being not very old, estimated to be just around fifty, he is the most powerful expert in Japan... bar none!"

Monk Wukong seemed to highly regard this person, as Amaterasu's strength commanded Monk Wukong's admiration, even though he was an old Japan man.

"Twenty years ago, at just over thirty, he was already a grandmaster-level expert, having crossed the sea to the Dragon Country! Within three months, he consecutively challenged the Six Great Sects, defeated six grandmaster-level experts of the same level... with two deaths and four injuries... one of whom became completely disabled!"

However, when it came to Amaterasu's feats, Monk Wukong spoke through gritted teeth, "Including a senior uncle of mine at Shaolin..."

"Ten years ago, Amaterasu advanced to the Great Grandmaster Realm, once again visiting the Dragon Country, consecutively challenging experts from Kunlun, Shaolin, and the Snow Mountain Sect..."

Monk Wukong then continued with an even more thrilling account.

"What was the outcome?"

But as he spoke to this point, Monk Wukong suddenly paused, causing Qin Fang to anxiously inquire, since this was crucial.

"I don't know..."

Regrettably, Monk Wukong's answer was unexpectedly odd, as he shook his head, "No one knows the outcome of that battle..."

"However, after that, Amaterasu returned to Japan and has never set foot in the Dragon Country again!"

"What about those three experts?"

Qin Fang asked concernedly. With Amaterasu having returned to Japan, those three experts were in danger, and as a Dragon Country person, he naturally cared about them!

"My grandmaster completely sealed himself off and hasn't emerged since, and the two from Kunlun and the Snow Mountain Sect reportedly haven't been heard from either..."

Regrettably, Monk Wukong shook his head once more.

Shaolin's was a senior of his sect, so he was somewhat aware, but he didn't really know about the two from the Snow Mountain and Kunlun schools.

"Although Amaterasu hasn't re-entered the Dragon Country, his information has captured the attention of all factions within the Dragon Country. It is said that three or four years ago, he crossed that incredibly difficult threshold entering the... Supreme Realm!"

Monk Wukong followed with this shocking revelation.

"Except for a very few people, no one likely knows if this information is accurate... but presumably, it should be true!"

Upon speaking thus far, even Monk Wukong felt a deep sense of helplessness.

Monk Wukong, though very young and already at the Grandmaster Level, comparable to Amaterasu in his time, felt lacking in confidence faced with such an overwhelmingly powerful being.

"Supreme Realm..."

What Qin Fang was even more attentive to was this point.

He was well aware that above level 8 grandmaster, one reaches the pinnacle of humanity at Level 9, Supreme Realm, a status almost invincible in the world.

This represents an absolute qualitative leap, with individuals at this level almost existing as non-human beings...

The Great Grandmaster Level is already extremely terrifying, capable of striking down dozens with a wave of the hand, and the terrifying external true qi sweep can topple armies.

But the Supreme Realm surpasses even such experts by far, possibly even reaching the realm of terrestrial immortals...

"To have me kill such a master... must be joking, right?"

Reflecting on the promise he made, even Qin Fang felt it was a joke and was simultaneously relieved that the condition wasn't mandatory... (To be continued. If you like this work, please go to Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendations, monthly tickets, your support is my greatest motivation.)
