These ordinary people were naturally a piece of cake for Genjiro, and it wasn't even a warm-up. He had a large part of his mind on guarding against a half-blood who might suddenly appear.
Therefore, they were able to detect the situation on Sakura Yabuki's side immediately.
Upon hearing that it was Cao Han who was looking for him, Yuan Zhisheng immediately stopped hiding his true feelings and unleashed an astonishing aura.
This caused the Red Flag gang members, who were already terrified by his god-like performance, to finally succumb to the immense pressure. Trembling with fear, they instinctively dropped their weapons and scattered like birds and beasts without looking back.
With quick reflexes, Genji caught the leader of the Akahata clan, who was trying to escape in the chaos, and lifted him up with one hand before heading towards where Yabuki Sakura was.
"Sakura, keep an eye on this person."
After throwing the trembling, fear-filled man to the ground, Genji took the phone: "Cao-kun, is there something you need?"
"There's been some trouble at the school, and I need to get back as soon as possible, but I have one more thing to take care of before I can leave."
"whats the matter?"
Cao Han did not answer the question, but instead asked, "Where is your sister, Uesugi Erii?"
"My father, Uesugi Kotsu, took Erii back to the Uesugi family to protect her personally." Genji was completely reassured by Cao Han's words.
"The Uesugi family? That's the place where I killed Tachibana Masamune, right?"
"Yes." After some time, Yuan Zhisheng had come to accept this fact without any emotional impact.
"Then let's meet at the Uesugi residence."
After saying that, Cao Han hung up the phone without giving Yuan Zhisheng a chance to ask any further questions, and then notified Kazama Ruri in the same way.
Chapter 116 "Eri Uesugi"
"Eri, do you like to eat this?"
"Eri, do you like this?"
"Eri, do you like reading this manga?"
"Eri, can I play this game with you?"
"Eri!!! Girls shouldn't just take their clothes off like that!!!"
"..."
During the few days that Uesugi Erii was brought back to the Uesugi family home and cared for by him personally, Uesugi Koshi, the old father, was in a state of both pain and joy.
The pain was more of a heartache, because through their time together he was shocked to discover that his daughter was as innocent as a blank sheet of paper, and under Tachibana Masamune's deliberate control, even contact with the outside world was a rare thing.
If Tachibana Masamune hadn't already been dead beyond any doubt, Uesugi Eishi would probably have shown him what the wrath of the former Shadow Emperor was all about!
Happiness came from the fact that he, a staunch advocate of remaining single and childless, now discovered how blissful and joyful it is to have a "warm and loving daughter."
Erii would practically pluck the moon from the sky for her if she wanted something.
He completely transformed into a "doting father"!
As for the problem that appeared on Uesugi Erii... Uesugi Etsushi also noticed it to some extent.
The instability of her bloodline brings Erii various negative effects every day, such as headaches, insomnia, and hallucinations...
However, Erii Uesugi never showed this in front of Etsushi Uesugi, but silently endured it all.
In her simple worldview, she simply didn't want to cause trouble for others, and her obedient and sensible nature was heartbreaking!
Uesugi Kotsu secretly tried several methods, even fantasizing about transferring his own blood into his daughter's body, thinking that since they were from the same root, it should be effective.
The result, however, was somewhat disappointing.
It's not that it's completely useless, but it's better than nothing.
Just like it's not bad for an ordinary person to receive too much blood from another person during a blood transfusion when they are in critical condition, the same principle applies to Erii Uesugi.
The effect drops sharply in a stepwise manner with time and number of sessions.
The Ganryu Research Institute also stated that there was no good solution, and they could only continue the practices of the previous patriarch, Tachibana Masamune, by continuously washing Uesugi Erii's blood and giving her some special hematopoietic inhibitors.
Although these drugs may cause the body to be relatively weak on a daily basis, it is still better than the bloodline losing its balance and going completely berserk.
"Sauce sauce sauce sauce sauce—"
"Look what gift my brother brought for Erii."
"Wow~ It's a monster figure!" Uesugi Erii happily took the gift from Genjiro, then naturally stood on tiptoe and gave him a light "MUA" kiss on the cheek. "Thank you, big brother."
Seeing his daughter's expression, the elderly father, Uesugi Etsu, glared at Genjiro with a displeased look.
Why! ?
She herself has never enjoyed the kind of treatment Erii received.
Older men can get jealous for no apparent reason, and they can't escape it even if the object of their jealousy is their own son.
"What are you doing back here? Don't you need to deal with the Snake-Headed Eight Families' affairs?"
After having his "little cotton-padded jacket" (a term of endearment for a close female friend), the status of his son in Uesugi Kotsugu's heart plummeted, a stark contrast to his attitude when he first recognized Genjiro.
To be fair, Uesugi Koshi was completely at ease handing over the position of head of the Snake Clan to Genji.
He is responsible, has a strong sense of justice, is decisive, and most importantly, he is also very capable, having fully inherited his own strengths.
“The family affairs will be handled by Crow.” Genji first answered Uesugi Kotsu’s question, and then explained why he came here, “I came because Cao Han asked me to come, and it seems that there is something important.”
Cao Han!
Upon hearing this name, Uesugi Kotsushi couldn't help but frown, a hint of apprehension rising in his heart.
As a super hybrid, he had never experienced this situation even when he assassinated Angers back then. The only time he felt powerless was when facing the young Cao Han.
"Do you know this guy's background? I have a feeling he's not simple!" Uesugi Yue asked with a serious expression.
Through his conversation with Angers before he left, he learned that the other party had not revealed his location to Cao Han.
This raises serious questions about how Cao Han learned of his existence and exact location.
Furthermore, through conversations with Genjiro, Uesugi Kotetsu learns more clues and discovers that many things that seem like coincidences are actually being pushed forward by someone behind the scenes.
For example, the resurrection of the gods.
Others may not know the specific details, but Uesugi Kotsugi, the former king of shadows who inherited many secrets, knows them all too well.
The so-called sacred burial site "Takamagahara" had long since sunk into the depths of the Japanese seabed following the earthquake.
Putting aside how this person descended to the depths of the ocean, the most inconceivable thing is how he managed to kill the Yamata no Orochi, the true form of a god, in the deep sea!
In short, the whole affair exudes an inexplicable sense of mystery from top to bottom.
Considering that Cao Han had always been showing goodwill and that he had become a father late in life, Uesugi Yue was happy to pretend not to know.
Faced with this question, Yuan Zhisheng could only shake his head: "I'm afraid only Kassel College knows Cao Han's background best."
If Kassel College heard Genji say that, they would probably retort: You're overthinking it!
Logically speaking, it's impossible for someone with such a mysterious identity and extreme danger to get into Kassel College, but Uesugi Kotetsu, a longtime friend, could understand Angers's actions and murmured:
"The dragon slayer may become the dragon himself; I hope you, my old friend, will not raise a new dragon!"
The fall of a god was absolutely the most welcome thing for Uesugi Kotsugu; the gloom that had been hanging over his head for so many years had finally dissipated.
Erii Uesugi, standing to the side, blinked her big eyes and listened quietly to the conversation between the two, but her mind couldn't help but become curious about the name "Cao Han".
Tap! Tap! Tap~!
The sound of someone approaching was heard, and the two, mistaking it for Cao Han's arrival, immediately stopped talking.
A dull thud sounded as the door was pushed open...
The moment he saw the newcomer's face, Genjiro quickly stood up and reached for his waist with his right hand, where the divine weapon Kusanagi, given to him by Cao Han, was hanging. He quietly stood behind Erii, watching the doorway warily.
"Why are you here?"
Unlike Genjiro, who is used to wearing all black, Kazama Ruri, who loves Kabuki, prefers bright colors. The same robe is predominantly red.
Seeing Genjiro looking like he was facing a formidable enemy, Uesugi Kotsugu's first reaction upon seeing the newcomer was one of familiarity and warmth. After observing him more closely, he realized that the newcomer's appearance was nearly 70% similar to Genjiro's, with the remaining 30% being more of a difference in temperament.
Source girl!
The name of her other son involuntarily came to mind.
"Brother~" A soft voice came from Kazama Ruri's mouth.
Seeing her brother's wariness towards her, with an unconcealed sadness in his eyes, she wondered when their relationship had become like this.
"Brother Zhisheng, what are you doing? That's Brother Zhinu!"
Sensing the tense atmosphere, Uesugi Erii hurriedly spoke up, her anxiety almost bringing tears to her eyes.
The naive girl couldn't understand why her two brothers, who were so good to her, would do this, and could only do her best to stop it.
Both hands are flesh and blood, and the one I least want to see is Uesugi Koshi.
Without hesitation, he stood between Genjiro and Genjiro, facing Genjiro, his attitude of wanting to stop them very firm.
Good guy~
In an instant, the four people in the room almost stood in a row. Genji blocked Uesugi Erii, and Uesugi Kotetsu blocked Genji.
“If there’s any misunderstanding, we can sit down and talk it out.” The experienced Uesugi Echizen had still managed to glean more information in such a short time.
For example, Kazama Ruri has not shown any malice so far, and she is not carrying any weapons.
In addition, the information obtained from Genjiro should mean that Genjiro has already degenerated into a "demon".
Uesugi Etsushi knew all too well what the "Oni" of the Snake Clan meant. To put it bluntly, they were hybrids who had fallen into the form of Dead Servants, completely losing their minds and becoming bloodthirsty monsters.
No matter how you look at it, Kazama Ruri doesn't seem like Deadpool at all.
So, being quick-witted, he always felt that there must be some misunderstanding.
"It was Lord Cao who sent me here."
A simple sentence instantly eased the tense situation.
Upon learning that it was Cao Han who had sent Kazama Ruri, Genji thought that he himself had also been summoned by Cao Han, and that the other party must have had his reasons for doing so.
"Sit down first," Genji said, his tone softening. He no longer gripped the Ama-no-Murakumo sword, but remained standing in front of his sister Erii, guarding against any potential harm.
Three men sat on the floor around a table in the middle, each with a different expression on their face.
