"Swish!"

Opportunity comes unexpectedly. After Yagyu Takayuki's sweeping strike, Su Fan suddenly leaned back into an Iron Plate Bridge, easily dodging the attack.

Missing with the first strike, Yagyu Takayuki immediately changed his horizontal slash to a vertical chop!

Su Fan followed with a backward somersault, leaping into the air.

In mid-air, he stabbed downward, forcefully descending!

Yagyu Takayuki was greatly startled, hurriedly swinging his katana to block!

"Clang!"

This time, when sword and blade clashed, it made a huge sound like a great bell ringing.

After this loud noise, Yagyu Takayuki's hand felt a sharp pain; the katana in his hand was split apart by Su Fan's sword.

"Buzz——"

Originally, half of his shoulder was about to be cleaved off by Su Fan's sword.

But being a late-stage master of the Gang Qi Realm, he swiftly employed his protective Qi aura at a critical moment to block Su Fan's sword.

Seizing the moment, Su Fan delivered a powerful side kick, sending Yagyu Takayuki flying backward.

Yagyu Takayuki got up awkwardly, only to face Su Fan's Tai Chi Sword falling again, aiming straight for his throat!

"Clang!"

This time, although Su Fan's attack was once again blocked by Yagyu Takayuki,

there was no doubt that Yagyu Takayuki had completely lost his composure.

Su Fan's sword descended one strike after another, and he could only rely on his protective Qi aura to withstand them.

Though protective Qi aura is formidable, it is merely True Qi forming a protective shield, not an aircraft carrier's armor.

On Su Fan's thirteenth consecutive strike, his protective Qi aura shattered directly.

"Crack!"

"Slash——"

After a crisp sound, came the sound of a blade slicing through a throat.

This second Family Head of the Yagyu family fought fiercely with Su Fan for around ten minutes, only to meet a tragic end!

Theoretically, Su Fan's mission was already completed.

But he soon realized that at least one more life-and-death battle awaited him.

From around the corner, Yagyu Zhengren staggered out.

He propped himself with a katana on the ground, looking utterly miserable.

His face bore a crisscross wound like a slanted cross, and one eye was evidently blind.

His abdomen had an even more horrifying wound, with his intestines spilling out.

Such injuries, even with timely rescue, might spell certain death.

Yagyu Zhengren wanted to call for help, but now he couldn't utter a word as he fell into a pool of blood.

He had over twenty varying degrees of injuries on his body.

Some of these injuries were inflicted by Yagami Takuji, while others were caused by Yagyu Shigetaka.

Su Fan, holding his Tai Chi Sword, arrived at the battlefield where Yagyu Zhengren lay.

Then, he saw Yagami Takuji lying dead in blood and Yagyu Shigetaka standing coldly beside him.

Yagyu Shigetaka was the father of Yagami Takuji and others, and the elder brother of Yagyu Zhengren.

Theoretically, he should already be dead.

But information on the dark web is sometimes unreliable.

Yagyu Shigetaka, who had been declared dead for eight years on the dark web, was still very much alive.

When Su Fan saw Yagyu Shigetaka, Yagyu Shigetaka was also looking at Su Fan.

They exchanged no words; there was no need for words between them.

Because today, only one of them was destined to walk out of the Yagyu family headquarters alive!

"Tap! Tap! Tap! Tap!"

The sound of Yagyu Shigetaka's wooden clogs on the ground resounded like a death knell in the night.

As he approached Su Fan, he leapt up and swung his katana.

Su Fan, wielding his Tai Chi Sword, quickly met his attack.

The fierce duel between them officially commenced at this moment.

"Ding! Ding!"

Su Fan and Yagyu Shigetaka's figures crossed each other in mid-air.

Although there were only two sounds, they actually exchanged four sword strikes.

It's just that two of the sounds merged with the remaining collision sounds to form a single line.
