The temptation behind gentleness
Chapter 1117: The Final Battle at Tianhai Approaches
The duel between Su Fan and Yagyu Jyugong is inevitable.
Since there is an irreconcilable conflict between the two sides, whether he accepts the battle or not, Yagyu Jyugong can compel him to fight.
The best result now is to have a fair and open battle with the opponent in Tianhai!
The Tianhai Bund is extremely lively, whether day or night, it is always bustling with tourists.
During this period, a section of the Tianhai Bund has been isolated.
Many luxurious yachts have also anchored nearby.
Big names from around the world, having received the news, are arriving one after another.
There's still some time before the date of Su Fan and Yagyu Jyugong's duel, but everyone is already impatient.
Yagyu Jyugong is a universally recognized expert, not an ordinary Martial Artist, but a Martial Arts Grandmaster.
In the East, he even holds the honor of being one of the Four Junior Sword Saints.
To challenge such a long-established master like him against Su Fan, the crowd feels an instinctive sense of the strong picking on the weak.
It's no wonder that people don't hold Su Fan in high regard; the outside world knows too little about him.
Even until now, there is no direct evidence proving he is a Martial Arts Grandmaster.
This is because Su Fan has been keenly blocking this information. If it weren't for Yagyu Jyugong causing issues, it would be advantageous for him.
On a cruise ship not far nor too close to Tianhai, Yagyu Jyugong is practicing his Sword Dao.
Every strike of his still gives an odd impression.
But if the observer can place themselves in his shoes, they'd feel a textbook-like harmonious beauty.
Everyone's height, weight, arm span, muscle strength, and so on, are often different.
Therefore, everyone has swordsmanship most suited to themselves. Yagyu Jyugong found the most suitable sword moves for himself early on.
After finding these moves, for thirty years, through wind and rain, he has been practicing hard.
He seems to have become a solitary old oddity, mostly repeating some sword moves every day, tediously.
Now accompanying Yagyu Jyugong is Iwai Yoshimitsu.
Iwai Yoshimitsu is not from the Kawabata family but rather from another giant in the East, the Iwai family.
The Iwai family is a Sword Dao lineage, currently at the peak of its prowess.
The Iwai family has given rise to two Sword Saints, a great and a junior, in this century.
Iwai Otsuka, one of the Four Major Sword Saints of the East, and Iwai Junichi, one of the Four Junior Sword Saints, are the pride of the Iwai family.
This Iwai Yoshimitsu is no ordinary figure either.
He is a disciple of Iwai Otsuka, who even considers Iwai Yoshimitsu's talent in Sword Dao to be astonishing.
In a few decades, he might surpass Iwai Junichi and him, becoming the top master of the Iwai family.
Though these words have some element of him boasting about his disciple,
the praise Iwai Yoshimitsu receives from Iwai Otsuka speaks volumes about his prowess.
These days, Iwai Yoshimitsu has even become Yagyu Jyugong's sparring partner.
However, he didn't come here just to watch an exciting duel or to serve as a sparring partner for Yagyu Jyugong.
He has an important mission, which is in case Yagyu Jyugong falls, he must seize the opportunity to launch a sneak attack and deliver a fatal blow to Su Fan!
No one can imagine that this sunny, charming young man is secretly the deadliest killer.
Su Fan is unaware that his current adversaries are not just one, but two—one prominent, one hidden.
Yang City, Bai Yulan Villa Area, Villa No. 5.
With the decisive battle imminent, his lifestyle hasn't changed much.
He still goes to the affiliate hospital for work daily, checks on company development, then returns to Villa No. 5 to train and practice martial arts.
His Harmonizing Four Symbols and True Taichi method have achieved a relatively perfect integration.
When he uses the True Taichi method against enemies, he can also unleash the power of the Harmonizing Four Symbols.
