Under One Person: My comprehension is unmatched.

As darkness fell, the long day finally gave way to night.

Zhang Yan and his companion walked out of the courtyard and headed towards the inn.

After the day's ups and downs, Chai Yan's mind was a little foggy, and the night wind made him shiver.

"Brother Zhang, do you think the world can ever get any better?"

Zhang Yan nodded and said affirmatively.

"It will be alright, it will definitely be alright, but right now we need to focus on our own things."

Chai Yan said angrily.

"Those Japanese really deserve to die. For their own benefit, they will do anything, such as disrupting the establishment, assassinating, and robbing others."

Zhang Yan stopped in his tracks. He immediately thought of the spying in the alley and spoke up.

"Chai Yan, among the various sects here, who is most worthy of being assassinated by those Japanese?"

"You!"

Chai Yan answered without hesitation.

Zhang Yan: "..."

“They didn’t react that quickly. I mean, besides me, who else is like your sect leader?”

Chai Yan was stunned for a moment, then thought about it carefully and said.

“Chu Ma family, Hu Xianyao.”

"Quickly, take me to her house."

……

In the east of the city, there is a unique and elegant garden.

Hu Xianyao, who usually keeps to herself, was in the mood today and cooked herself two light dishes and drank a little wine.

After finishing her meal, she put on a black cloak and went to the front hall.

She first offered incense to the Fox Fairy, then took out a pipe, put tobacco on it, and started smoking.

After finishing her pipe, she tapped the ashtray and spoke to the dark courtyard outside.

"A bunch of hiding rats, come out, I'm all alone here."

Whoops!

Dozens of people emerged from the trees, rooftops, and underground corners; some were swordsmen, others were black-clad ninjas.

But they all have one thing in common: they cover their faces completely, only showing their eyes and mouths.

On the roof, there was still one ninja who hadn't come down. He picked up an arrow, sensed the direction, and blew hard on it.

call!

A poisoned needle flew out and struck the tile. The tile didn't shatter or make a sound; it only left a small hole.

The poisoned needle pierced through the roof and headed straight for Hu Xianyao's forehead.

Hu Xianyao did not get up, but simply waved her pipe lightly.

Ding!

After a sharp crack, the slightly bent poison needle was stuck diagonally into the leg of a chair next to it.

She glanced at it, her beautiful eyebrows furrowing as if she felt a pang of heartache.

She rose and walked gracefully toward the door, and began to speak.

"None of you should come inside. If these things break, your lives won't be enough to save you."

Upon arriving at the entrance, she looked at the courtyard full of masked Japanese people and suddenly laughed, a laugh full of charm.

"As a human being, you should eat when you're supposed to eat, and offer incense when you're supposed to offer incense."

She had already entered the courtyard, where a group of people surrounded her, but she remained calm and spoke.

"I bet none of you have eaten, haha, there should still be some left in the neighbor's dog bowl."

After saying that, she took a deep drag on her empty cigarette and continued.

"As for offering incense, I have already offered incense to the immortals, now I will offer incense to you."

A whistle, like that of an owl, rang out from the person on the roof.

Everyone understood the meaning of the whistle.

We are ready and will launch a full-scale attack.

Wow!

All the Japanese attacked silently at the same time, and the surrounding area, the ground, and even the airspace above were covered with various attacks.

Hu Xianyao pushed off with her feet, her body rising into the air, her cloak landing on the ground, revealing her close-fitting cotton coat and curvaceous figure.

She spun around in the air, waving her pipe incessantly, deflecting most of the hidden weapon attacks.

At the same time, a rather bizarre scene unfolded.

Suddenly, her head spun half a circle, revealing a white fox face.

The white fox had jet-black eyes and erect ears. It opened its mouth and exhaled thick smoke.

The smoke spread rapidly, and although it became somewhat thinner, it instantly filled the entire courtyard and lingered there.

At this moment, Hu Xianyao had already landed, and the second wave of attacks arrived as expected, slashing at various parts of her body.

But the blade stopped just inches from her body, and didn't go any further.

She picked up her pipe, gently brushed aside the Japanese sword, picked up her cloak, and slowly walked out of the encirclement.

She then patted the dust off her cloak and spoke in a commanding tone.

"continue."

The Japanese sword fell again, but this time the target was their own comrade...

Deng Deng Deng!

Zhang Yan followed closely behind Chai Yan, his hurried footsteps echoing on the cobblestone street. He asked, "..."

"How much further is it, and how do you know where she lives?"

"You'll arrive after turning this street."

Chai Yan ignored the questions that followed and quickened her pace.

When the two arrived at that street, Zhang Yan suddenly noticed that there was a strange and unusual aura permeating the courtyard of the third house ahead.

Chai Yan pointed to the door of the third house and spoke.

"That's the one, Brother Zhang. I want to be the first to go this time!"

Zhang Yan glanced at Chai Yan, nodded, and said okay.

As the two arrived at the gate, Chai Yan could clearly sense the fighting inside.

Thankfully, we weren't late this time.

He took a deep breath, then exhaled, kicked the door open, and shouted.

"Sister Hu, I'm here."

The fighting in the courtyard stopped abruptly, and all the Japanese soldiers who had been fighting each other turned to look at him with bloodshot eyes.

The ninja on the roof who used "arrows" has been riddled with kunai.

Unable to hold on any longer, it tumbled down and landed with a thud on the stone steps of the courtyard.

The scene immediately fell silent.

Standing at the doorway, Hu Xianyao had regained her original appearance.

She put down her pipe, gently exhaled a wisp of smoke, and said to Chai Yan with a smile.

"Xiao Chaiyan, what do you want with your sister? Are you here to kill her like them?"

Chai Yan checked the situation in the courtyard again, and upon hearing Hu Xianyao's words, he waved his hands and shook his head repeatedly.

"no no."

Hu Xianyao turned her head, revealing her fox-like face again, and opened her mouth to speak.

"Then you two little brats get lost and don't spoil my fun."

Chai Yan's legs trembled, and he backed out the door in the same way he had come in, closing the door behind him.

He turned around and said to Zhang Yan in a serious tone.

"The Hu family, who practice shamanism, is one of the most powerful forces in this area. With Hu Xianyao's skills, dealing with a few Japanese would be a piece of cake."

"Brother Zhang, you're worrying too much. This trip was a waste of time."

How could this trip have been in vain? Zhang Yan felt that this trip had been very rewarding.

Seeing Chai Yan's serious expression and his eager cooperation, he gave a thumbs-up and said...

"Brother Chai is good at analysis and also has a good eye."

Upon hearing the last few words, Chai Yan's face turned red.

He seemed to realize this, and immediately began to circulate his Qi, turning his entire face into a pure gold color.

Normally, with his current cultivation level, he wouldn't be able to achieve such a golden complexion. Perhaps his state of mind changed too much that day, and he gained some enlightenment.

At that moment, he suddenly grasped the method of splitting taught by Zhang Yan.

Zhang Yan stared blankly at Chai Yan's expression for several seconds, then silently raised his other thumb and said.

"Great!"

Even with Zhang Yan's extraordinary comprehension, he never imagined that this technique could be used in this way.

"Brother Zhang, it's too late, let's go back."

"Okay, you go back to the martial arts school. I'll come find you first thing tomorrow morning."

Just as Zhang Yan and his companion went back to rest, the two families that Zhang Yan had chosen were in an uproar.
