Chapter 4135 Trading
Ozaki was completely dumbfounded. "Brother, you're the important person I paid to hire, and you're going to attack me first? Is that reasonable?"

Although he was completely bewildered, the murderous aura emanating from his opponent and the force gripping his neck compelled him to find a way to escape immediately. Otherwise, he truly felt that his opponent would strangle him to death.

"It's...it's mine." Naomichi Ozaki managed to say, barely managing to suppress his suffocation.

"Release that guy," the Asura said. Clearly, "that guy" referred to Zong Yang.

"This guy's target is indeed the young master." The black dog, who had just been punched and sent flying backward, was now lying on the ground, severely injured and now hit twice more, making it almost unable to move. But upon hearing this, it still wanted to get up immediately to protect the young clan leader.

"Damn it, that Kansuke guy, he's completely useless at such a critical moment." The black dog looked to the other side, where there was still some faint demonic energy emanating from, because it was the demonic energy emanating from another retainer who was with him.

The demonic aura was extremely weak, probably because the opponent was also seriously injured. He hadn't expected Kansuke to be so weak, still not recovered enough to help. He'd really let the guy run wild; he was utterly useless in a critical moment.

Can't you see that the young master is already in danger? It's truly infuriating. My own body... I can't move.

Ashura's words stunned Naomichi Ozaki. Release him? That's clearly not a good idea.

After all, he had managed to seal the opponent with great difficulty because he caught the opponent off guard. Who would have thought that he possessed a spiritual object from Takamagahara?

But if we release the other party now, it will be very difficult to catch them again.

Putting aside the fact that the other party was on guard, his current spiritual power was simply insufficient to activate this spirit creature a second time. He had experienced the strength of this young patriarch of the Inugami clan before; the demonic power emanating from the other party just now was quite terrifying.

If it weren't for having such a spiritual object, I wouldn't have dared to confront such a powerful demon.

"What, do you want to die?" Ashura, seeing that Ozaki Naomichi didn't answer, increased the pressure in his hand and continued to threaten him.

"Cough... Fine... Go ahead and do it." Ozaki Naomichi was also getting angry. That's right, he paid for this helper himself, and now he's coming at him head-on? Isn't that just messing with his mentality?

Death? He had risked his life on this mission. Although the punishment for failure was system removal, not an immediate death, he had already gone this far; what other way out was there?
Putting everything else aside, he attacked the opposing team and beat them to a pulp. What do you think he would do if he failed the mission and lost all the abilities he gained from the system?
Would the people in the opposing department let him go? Would they execute him outright? Or imprison him for life? Or drag him into experiments? In any case, he would definitely not have a good ending.

Since he was doomed anyway, what was there to be afraid of? After all, he had no other options, and his system points had just been reset to zero. Although they were still increasing because of the live stream, he couldn't buy anything with them right now, so he was helpless.

The only thing that still has a chance to turn things around is this benefactor who was just summoned. If this guy doesn't help, then he might as well give up and die.

However, this "dead pig doesn't care about boiling water" attitude gave Asura a bit of a headache.

He did come here for Zong Yang, the young patriarch of the Inugami clan. But not to kill him.

His target wasn't just a young clan leader; he had many enemies. The Inugami clan was only the first; he wanted to deal with the entire Inugami family, not just Zong Yang, but everyone involved in what happened back then—they all had to pay the price. But he knew he couldn't possibly defeat the entire Inugami family. Zong Yang was a crucial part of his later plans; he had to get his hands on him.

However, things have now reached a stalemate. He doesn't know what kind of sealing artifact that spirit from the divine realm is, and he has no confidence that he can control such a thing.

To be honest, he was quite surprised that this thing could be controlled by a human.

He now wants this human to bring Zongyang out, then he'll capture it and use that to continue his plan to deal with the Inugami clan.

However, unexpectedly, a problem arose right from the first step: these humans were not cooperating.

So what do we do now? If we kill this human, will the seal break? It would be good if it broke, but if the seal doesn't break even after the person dies, that would be troublesome. He wasn't confident he could take this thing away, because even from so far away, he could vaguely feel a repulsive force emanating from it, and he felt that if he got close, he would be attacked by the spiritual power or divine power emanating from this spirit.

The original intention was to force humans to submit, since in his understanding, humans were quite afraid of death. But then he encountered someone who wasn't afraid of death, which really put him in a difficult position.

Yes, he also read something in Naomichi Ozaki's eyes; what the other party said was probably true, and he really had no intention of compromising.

Ashura even felt a certain admiration for such a hero. He knew that a small portion of humanity was worthy of respect—the strong and the brave. The one in his hands had a resolute gaze and a strong will. But the current situation was difficult.

"Do me a favor... cough cough... and I'll agree." Just as Ashura was wondering what to do, Ozaki Naomichi spoke up again.

"..." Ashura paused for a moment, then loosened his grip slightly and asked, "What is it?"

Naomichi Ozaki was surprised that the communication was successful, because he really had no other choice, so he tried to negotiate with the guy in front of him who was exuding a murderous aura, and the other party actually agreed.

That would be a good thing, of course.

Without saying much, Ozaki Naomichi pointed directly to Takaoka Yūnori's location and said, "Kill this human, and I will do as you say."

Yes, the most important thing now is Takaoka Yūnori's life. As long as he is killed, everything will be fine.

Once I complete my mission, the system won't unbind me; in fact, I'll receive a substantial system reward. If I then strengthen myself further, I'll have a chance to survive, even if I've angered the opposing faction.

"Hmm?" Ashura looked directly at the person Ozaki Naomichi was pointing at. It was a human who looked quite ordinary, emanating some spiritual power, but to Ashura, he was quite weak.

Ashura didn't take the conditions seriously, as they were unexpectedly simple. In his view, it was just a matter of convenience, a minor incident compared to his overall plan.

Ashura quickly nodded: "Okay."
