One person: I have exposed the superhuman to the whole world.

Chapter 115 Stepping Stone

The video is still playing.

The camera then returns to Tang Jiaren's perspective, where he is engaged in a fierce battle with two swordsmen.

A ninja who was secretly on guard saw an opportunity to make a move and seized the chance to throw two hidden weapons at Tang Jiaren, but he blocked them perfectly.

"Don't cause trouble, old man! Leave this guy to the two of us!"

Faced with the swordsman's request, the ninja head said something unexpected.

"The other party is very powerful."

"It's precisely because they're so formidable that they're worth defeating. We can't just leave all these amazing people to others, can we?"

Seemingly out of confidence in themselves, the two swordsmen made a request to the ninja to entrust the task to them.

Seeing Tang Jiaren being ignored, the audience began to speak out in his defense.

"These two little brats are so pretentious! Stop pretending! If you're so tough, why don't you fight Old Master Tang one-on-one!"

"What kind of hero fights outnumbered opponents!"

"They are no heroes, they are Japanese soldiers, and that's the kind of thing they do."

Although the audience outside the arena was very unhappy with the ninjas' disdain for Tang Jiaren, he himself was quite happy.

"Although I can't understand what they're saying, I feel like a mouse being toyed with by an old cat."

"Their idea... is absolutely brilliant!"

"Although killing these two boys is easy, it would be a loss if we scared away the leader of the ninja."

Tang Jiaren immediately began to reduce his strength, making himself appear weaker to prevent his opponent from losing too quickly.

Taking advantage of the lulls in the fighting, Tang Jiaren kept making small, stealthy movements toward the ninja leader.

Although he intentionally held back, he still couldn't be too relaxed when facing two powerful swordsmen.

One of the swordsmen was inevitably struck by his poison.

However, thanks to the ninja's abilities, the poison was quickly neutralized.

But this also made Tang Jiaren realize that he could not continue like this.

"It's a pity that I'm still a bit far from that old Japanese devil. If I could get within thirty... no, twenty steps, that would be enough."

Oh dear, those twenty steps are quite a distance...

Even a cat's patience has its limits. If this continues, it will be terrible if the old Japanese devils discover the danger.

I was originally planning to plant them closer, hoping that if I could plant them while they were off guard, I might be able to escape...

It seems impossible...

There's no other way but to go through with it. The toll for those twenty steps will be very expensive…”

At this moment, Tang Jiaren's aura suddenly changed, and even his opponent noticed that the old man opposite him had become different!

Not only them, but even the audience had no idea what would happen next.

Only some of the older members of the Otherworld and the disciples of the Tang Clan could probably guess what Tang Jiaren planned to use to deal with the ninja leader.

Ma Long from the Tang Clan looked at Zhang Wang and asked, "Is the old man going to use the Pill Devouring Technique?"

Zhang Wang nodded.

Although he didn't know exactly what happened that day, none of the ten people who participated in the Battle of Mianshan had seen how Tang Jiaren killed the ninja leader.

However, the final outcome was that Ninja Head died at the hands of Tang Jiaren!

Zhang Wang knew that the old man's plan must have succeeded; he had truly accomplished his mission perfectly.

"Just watch closely, the chance to see Dan Shi is not often."

Tang Jiaren slowly walked towards the swordsmen. Facing Tang Jiaren's renewed attack, the two swordsmen used all their strength to deal with the possible attack from Tang Jiaren.

But something surprising happened to them and the audience.

Tang Jiaren lunged forward as if to his death, offering no resistance to the swordsman's attack. He lost one of his hands and one of his feet, all to throw a flying needle at the ninja.

The flying needle was easily blocked by the ninja.

"What's going on?!"

"It's fast! But not particularly amazing!"

But Tang Jiaren showed a satisfied smile; he was very happy with his current situation.

"Very good...you avoided a fatal blow!"

Due to inertia, Tang Jiaren fell heavily in front of the ninja leader.

Even the leader of the ninja gang praised Tang Jiaren, who was still smiling.

"It was brilliant; sacrificing himself for the final blow was incredibly brilliant, but also incredibly foolish..."

In Ren Tou's view, Tang Jiaren paid a heavy price but did not cause him any harm, which was extremely foolish.

However, Tang Jiaren showed no sadness whatsoever. He used his last hand to prop himself up and sat down opposite Ren Tou.

"Haha... It doesn't matter anymore, it's all over anyway..."

At this moment, Ren Tou still didn't understand what Tang Jiaren meant by "the end," after all, he didn't seem like someone who could hurt him now.

"How foolish. You should have realized that the assassination was impossible when I discovered you. If you had left then, you might have been able to escape."

Ren Tou looked at the silent Tang Jiaren and sneered, "Speechless now?"

Tang Jiaren stared at the ninja leader in front of him, the ultimate target of this mission, and slowly asked his last two questions.

"I have two questions..."

"Oh?"

"These two kids behind me are quite good. Their moves are deadly and their methods are swift. You have trained them very well. There are also many superhumans who came to the mainland with your army, but they all came in their own names."

"It seems only your Higanbana clan has mobilized almost its entire force. Are you just bringing these children, whom you've painstakingly trained, to their deaths? You seem quite loyal to the Emperor, don't you?"

The leader seemed to have heard something ridiculous and burst into laughter.

"Loyalty? That's something only samurai are qualified to be swayed by! In the eyes of those great figures, we talented individuals, once we have great power, can no longer have our own thoughts!"

From the very beginning, we existed as tools, but when peace came, those in power considered us unnecessary! We were sealed away in the mountains for centuries!

I don't know when it started, but the world changed. Generals were gone, everyone could have a surname, and commoners no longer had to worry about being hacked to the ground by drunken samurai lords when walking on the street. It seemed that everyone was being treated gently.

Except for us ninjas!

Those powerful figures created us, these killing machines… Now they feel we don't belong in this wonderful world, and they still don't want us out.”

Ren Tou took a breath, snapping out of his reverie, and a smile appeared on his lips.

"But that's all in the past. I made a deal with those big shots to exchange military merits for acceptance into the new world."

"It is the heads of you mainlanders that are the stepping stones for me and my children to see the sunlight again."
