Dongwen Zhenxi pursed her lips, lowered her voice, and sounded somewhat guilty, but she did not fall silent.
"I heard from Kudo-kun that you came to the Kowloon Group, which I suppose is also for my sake."
"."
"I want to do something; I don't want my husband to have to go through all this alone."
"I tried calling, but I couldn't get through."
"If I have disturbed your plans, I will leave immediately."
Maki Azuma's eyes were sincere, her words earnest with a hint of pleading, her posture humble and her attitude very good.
This gradually diminished Uesugi Kiyoshi's slight dissatisfaction.
He's here to do something important, so naturally he can't have his phone ringing. As for Maki Higashimoto coming here, it can't be considered a bad thing.
The fact that the eldest daughter of the Dongwen Society personally came to the core headquarters of the Kowloon Group further demonstrates their sincerity.
"It's nothing. I'm just worried about your safety. Dong Wenyu could send someone to harm you at any time. You'd better be careful until tomorrow."
Maki Azuma's expression relaxed a little, and she shook her head.
“With Shen Cheng with me, it’s the same there.”
"Moreover, I feel safe only when I'm with my husband."
Upon hearing this answer, Uesugi Kiyoshi nodded noncommittally, looked up at Ninth Generation Ryushin, and gave him a perfectly timed smile.
"Senior is too kind. On your turf, I don't need any help. Maki and I have the same goal. She thinks it's more proper to be there in person for this kind of thing."
Having said that, Uesugi Kiyoshi didn't give the Ninth Generation Ryushin a chance to change the subject and immediately continued speaking.
“Senior, I have done everything you asked me to do. Now the Shanxin Association and Yuan Association have lost face. If word gets out about what happened today, they will be completely disgraced, and their influence will definitely be affected.”
"You should know my stance. At this point, within the Kowloon Group, I have no choice but to stand by your side."
"Then could you lend me a hand tomorrow?"
Jiu Shi Long Xin withdrew his ambiguous gaze and smiled leisurely: "You want me to help you deal with Dong Wen Yu?"
"It's not impossible, but if my Ninth Incarnation were to intervene, things might not be so simple."
"Have you thought about it?"
"You just said that this is an internal matter of the Dongwen Society. If I interfere and set a precedent, countless others will follow suit, and things will escalate significantly—is this the outcome you want?"
Uesugi Kiyoshi remained silent for a moment, then shook his head.
Upon careful consideration, he could understand what Ninth Dragon Heart meant. The fact that the head of the Kowloon Group was personally involved was a truly significant move, and it was no exaggeration to say that it attracted the attention of the entire Tokyo metropolis.
For every person who takes the lead in eating meat, there are others who want to join in and drink the soup.
"But the Believers' Association and the Source Association probably won't let this go, and they'll definitely make a move behind the scenes tomorrow. I'm afraid."
"This is easy to handle."
Ninth Dragon Heart smiled lightly and said calmly, "If it were only those two juniors who were doing the tricks, it wouldn't have required me to mobilize all my men."
“This is my godson. You young people should have common topics to discuss. You can chat.”
"I'm old now, the world belongs to you."
Ninth Dragon Heart stood up, supporting his waist, and waved to those below.
"Alright, Ryuhei, Ryuichiro, young people should stop making a fuss. Help me down to rest; my old back is killing me."
The elderly businessman in the black suit and the man in the silver suit with a slicked-back hairstyle instantly understood each other. They stood up and came behind Ninth Dragon Heart, following him and the middle-aged beauty as they slowly walked into the inner room.
Uesugi Kiyoshi stared at their retreating figures with some astonishment, then turned his gaze to the only young man who remained.
The boy who possessed the spirit of the Snow Child.
Their eyes met, and he stood up and walked to Uesugi Kiyoshi without any formality. He first glanced at Higashifumi Maki with a scrutinizing look, but then extended his hand to Uesugi Kiyoshi.
"I am Liu Longren, the adopted son of the Ninth Generation Chairman and the Chairman of the Liu Association. It's a pleasure to meet you."
"If there's anything you need, just tell me. My words represent my godfather's wishes."
The somewhat cold baritone voice was a perfect match for that equally cold face. Uesugi Kiyoshi hesitated for a moment, then reached out and shook hands with Liu Longren. He immediately felt a needle-like chill emanating from the fingers opposite him.
Well, this sentence contains a lot of information.
The adopted son of the Ninth Generation Dragon Heart has a Chinese name, and the name is so strange that it puzzles Uesugi Kiyoshi.
"You are from the Celestial Empire?"
Uesugi Kiyoshi tentatively asked the question.
Liu Longren seemed unfazed by such questions, casually nodding and offering an explanation.
“You’re not the first person to ask this question. Usually, when people ask this, what they’re really thinking is, ‘Why would a Chinese person become the adopted son of the head of the Kowloon Group?’”
He blinked and said expressionlessly, "My adoptive father has no children. I was adopted by him when I was eight years old, along with fourteen of my brothers and sisters. We came from all over the world and different countries."
"Now, ten years have passed, and I am the only one left alive."
Do you have any more questions?
Uesugi Kiyoshi's eyes narrowed, and he shook his head with a grave expression.
These words convey a chilling, bloody atmosphere.
It has a bit of the tragic feel of the princes vying for the throne in palace dramas.
Uesugi Kiyoshi had no intention of wasting time on the family relationships within the Kowloon Group, and he immediately returned to the main topic.
After thinking for a few seconds, he got straight to the point.
"Then, Chairman Liu, I need you to help me hold off the forces of the Yuan Society and the Shanxin Society tomorrow, and prevent them from interfering with the internal disputes of the Dongwen Society."
"Is that okay?"
Liu Longren spoke without hesitation.
"Just call me Liu, that's what my friends call me."
"No problem. This is something my godfather instructed me to do. Don't worry, no current member of the Kowloon Group will appear at the headquarters of the Dongwen Society as your enemy tomorrow."
He paused, cracked his knuckles, and said with some eagerness, "You can leave the job of blocking them to my friends, or I can help you myself. Uesugi-kun, don't let my appearance fool you, I'm quite a fighter."
Uesugi Kiyoshi believed this, as Liu Longren was one of the three extraordinary individuals in the Nine Dragons Group, and the Snow Child demon soul within him might have already had some effect on him.
The coldness of his hands is evidence of this.
Therefore, his combat strength is difficult to estimate.
The other party was straightforward and outspoken, so Uesugi Kiyoshi didn't hold back either.
He gave a wry smile and sighed, "Liu, your quick agreement makes me a little suspicious."
Liu Longren was not surprised that Uesugi Kiyoshi would think that way.
He stated frankly, "When I do things, I have a very clear sense of order, which helps with my thinking."
"You're one of us, for three reasons."
“First, you are the disciple of my godfather’s senior brother. My godfather trusts you, and we also have a common enemy. Because of this relationship, I am willing to fight alongside you.”
"Secondly, I find you pleasing to the eye."
Upon hearing this somewhat absurd and yuri-esque reason, Uesugi Kiyoshi's heart stirred.
Apricot, who possesses the spirit of the Yingcao, is very attached to herself.
Maki Higashifumi, who possesses the demon soul of the Demon Sword Princess, is completely obedient to him and extremely respectful.
Now, the holder of the Snow Child's demon soul has once again uttered the inexplicable statement, "I find you pleasing to the eye."
What exactly is this demonic soul? Can it influence the mind of its possessor?
What is the connection between the Hundred Demons Scroll and the demon spirits?
Before he could come to a conclusion, Liu Longren's next words shocked him so much that his face changed color.
"Third. I heard you're Fuyao's fiancé?"
Uesugi Kiyoshi suddenly looked up, instantly recognizing the name, and exclaimed in surprise, "What makes you say that?"
Liu Longren's lips twitched almost imperceptibly. He took out his phone, swiped the screen, and showed Uesugi Kiyoshi a chat log from not long ago.
He blinked again, and for some reason, his tone carried a hint of schadenfreude.
"That's what my third uncle said."
Liu Longren said so.
Chapter 113 Buwu Seal
"Senior Ye was just joking."
Stunned, Uesugi Kiyoshi remained silent for a few seconds, then sighed and said with a wry smile.
He had only known Li Fuyao for two days, and he never expected that this fiancé would be mentioned.
He admired Li Fuyao quite a bit; she was an impeccable, talented, and elegant woman, but not to the point that he would marry no one else.
Liu Longren nodded slightly, neither agreeing nor disagreeing, patted Uesugi Kiyoshi on the shoulder, and gave him a peculiar look.
The look in his eyes meant—whatever you say, I understand.
Clearly, he didn't think Ye San was joking.
This gaze left Uesugi Kiyoshi somewhat helpless, but he had nothing to say.
Although he didn't know why Ye San would spread such a rumor, he decided to change the subject first.
Are you very familiar with Senior Ye?
He asked this with some interest.
Liu Longren nodded in acknowledgment without any hesitation.
“I am of Chinese descent, but I was born in Japan and grew up here.”
"I spent the time before I was eight years old in a Chinese orphanage under the name of Tai Sui Ye. My third uncle and Tai Sui Ye would occasionally come to teach us some martial arts to strengthen our bodies."
