Ye Jingchen flew back to the ground on his sword and arrived in front of Yuan Zhinu.

Yuan Zhinv leaned against the deformed door of the black Maybach. His chest had been restored to its original state, revealing fair skin, delicate collarbones, and a thin strip of theatrical costume wrapped around his neck.

The phrase "a gentleman as handsome as jade" might perfectly describe someone like Yuan Zhinü, a truly beautiful man.

Yuan Zhinu looked up at Ye Jingchen, whose eye sockets had been removed, and smiled, "Ye Sang, you're back!"

"Where is Erii?" Ye Jingchen jumped down from Wuming, flipped his left palm upwards in a sword-finger gesture, and put Wuming back into the exquisite black silk scabbard on his back.

Upon hearing this, Yuan Zhinv stood up and moved to the side.

Erii rested her little head on the crook of her arms, turned her face to look at Ye Jingchen.

"Eri, step back a little." Ye Jingchen reached out and grabbed the deformed car door, pulling and twisting it forcefully. This time, the car door finally couldn't withstand the force.

"Crunch! Crunch!"

The car door fell off.

Ye Jingchen casually tossed the car door aside and reached out to Erii, who was crawling inside the car. "Erii, you can come out now. You're safe."

Erii grabbed Ye Jingchen's hand and jumped out of the car as fast as a rabbit.

"I wonder if the Kaguya AI program on this car still works?" Ye Jingchen looked at the overturned black Maybach and tentatively asked, "Kaguya?"

Princess Kaguya: "Zzz...Zzz...Ye—Specialist—I'm here!"

Princess Kaguya's voice was mixed with an unstable electrical current, indicating that the impact of the explosion had affected the earpiece function of the car audio system.

"Notify the head of the Inuyama family that the battle of Senso-ji Temple has been won. Tell him to send emergency medical teams to the scene. Many members of the Miyamoto family have been knocked unconscious by the shockwave of the explosion." Ye Jingchen said, turning his head to look at Miyamoto Shio, the head of the Miyamoto family, who was still lying on the ground.

He pulled Erii over and kicked Miyamoto Shigeo in the face. "Are you still alive? If you don't wake up, I'll kill you with my sword!"

Miyamoto Shigeo, who was unconscious, seemed to sense that his life was threatened. He suddenly opened his eyes, sat up from the ground, panting heavily, and looked up at Ye Jingchen and Erii.

Miyamoto Shigeo had a cut and bruise on the left side of his forehead. He shook his head, as if that would help him clear his head. "Deputy Director Ye, may I ask how long I was knocked unconscious by the explosion?"

Ye Jingchen glanced at Miyamoto Shigeo indifferently, then turned to look at the dark and gloomy ruins of the unfinished building complex. "It doesn't matter how long you've been unconscious. Now go and call up your Miyamoto family members who are lying unconscious on the ground. See who can still move, organize them, and take them into the ruins to see what Ryoma Genichiro and the others are up to and why they haven't come out yet."

"Yes!" Miyamoto Shigeo nodded, got up from the ground, and turned to wake up his clansmen.

In a short while, Miyamoto Shigeo awakened fourteen clansmen, who stood neatly in front of Ye Jingchen, forming a straight line.

Miyamoto Shigeo walked up to Ye Jingchen, a hint of helplessness flashing in his eyes. "Deputy Director Ye, these are the only people we can wake up."

Ye Jingchen bent down and took a small black rectangular box—a pager—from the waist of a member of the Miyamoto family at his feet. He blew two breaths into the pager and said, "Go in and find the Ryoma family members now, see what's going on, and remember to keep in touch."

"Yes, sir!" Miyamoto Shigeo nodded to Ye Jingchen, turned to look at the clansmen behind him, and waved his hand. "Come with me!"

The fourteen members of the Miyamoto family shouted in unison, "Yes!"

"Word of Power: Vortex!" Miyamoto Shio activated his Word of Power, and a spinning water sphere enveloped his entire body, serving a defensive purpose. He charged ahead, clearing a path for his people behind him.

Why do protagonists in movies and TV shows often jump into water when facing enemy fire? Because water can significantly affect the lethality of bullets. Even bullets from heavy sniper rifles, when fired into water, will only travel a meter or two before entering free fall.

Not to mention the rapidly spinning water sphere under Miyamoto Shio's "Word of Power: Vortex".

In reality, Miyamoto Shio's Word of Power is not a defensive skill. The strength of "Word of Power: Vortex" lies in its destructive power! The power of the water sphere exploding is comparable to that of a high-explosive bomb.

Ye Jingchen watched as Miyamoto Shio led his clansmen away, then turned to Genjiro and asked, "When you went deep into the ruins just now, did you find any trace of Ryoma Genichiro and the others?"

Yuan Zhinu lowered her head, as if lost in memories. He shook his head. "I didn't find them, but I did smell a faint, unpleasant odor in the air, somewhat like... rotten meat that's been in the refrigerator for a long time."

"Rotten flesh?" Ye Jingchen frowned slightly. "Is there a lot of homeless corpses buried in these ruins? Or is there some dragon-blooded creature that can emit the smell of rotting flesh? A Dead Servants? Corpse Guardians?"

As Yuan Zhinu listened to Ye Jingchen's guess, she recalled the scent of those ants-like Deadpools when she (Kazama Ruri) last fought Yuan Zhisheng at Tokyo Airport!

That's the smell of rotten meat!

"Deadpool! It's Deadpool!" Yuan Zhinu looked at Ye Jingchen, her eyes wide. "I've smelled this scent on those Deadpools before!"

After hearing Yuan Zhinv's words, Ye Jingchen raised his hand and stroked his chin. "Ryoma Genichiro and the others have guns. If they encountered Deadpool, they should have fired. Why haven't we heard any gunshots for so long?"

Yuan Zhinv gripped Xixue tightly, looking at the dark and deep ruins, "I'm going back one more time to rescue these guys!"

“Together!” Ye Jingchen looked up at the dark ruins. “I haven’t observed Deadpool up close yet. Let’s take this opportunity to see what Deadpool looks like when he falls to the ground.”

“Okay, Ye-san!” Yuan Zhinv nodded, then a hint of hesitation appeared on her face. “However, could this be a trap set by the King? Maybe it will be like last time at Tokyo Airport, with thousands of Dead Servants lying in ambush…”

"Wrong! The King wouldn't do that here!" Ye Jingchen raised his hand to interrupt Yuan Zhinü, and analyzed the situation for her:

"Deadpool is now one of the King's most important trump cards. He will not easily waste his precious Deadpool unless absolutely necessary."

Now that he no longer has the identity of Tachibana Masamune, the head of the Snake Clan, Deadpool is no longer a renewable resource for the Kings; once used, it will be less.

If I were the king, I would definitely release these Deadpools into densely populated city centers to create chaos when necessary!

The ruins of Senso-ji Temple are, at present, nothing of value. At most, the king would just leave a few undead to guard the place.

With that, Ye Jingchen took Erii's small hand and walked forward!

Yuan Zhinu looked at Ye Jingchen and Erii walking ahead, lifted her foot to follow, and said softly:

"hope so……"
