If things go well, I might be able to get in touch with them and rise to prominence from then on.
After a while, in a secluded alley on **Main Street.
Gazing at the figure in the distance, dressed in a pale white dress with her long, flowing black hair cascading down her back, a thug with a face full of acne couldn't help but swallow hard: "Damn, what a beautiful woman. No wonder he had to pull this hero-saves-the-damsel-in-distress act."
"If I were in that situation..."
Before he could finish, he was suddenly hit on the head.
Then, his boss's angry scolding followed: "If you want to die, don't drag me into it."
After being hit, the thug was not angry, and a wry smile appeared on his face: "Hehe~, I'm just thinking about it, right?"
"You can't even think about it!"
"People are coming, come on!"
Having said that, seeing that Jinghe Asagi had already entered the alley, the gang leader got up and walked towards her, a lecherous look on his face: "Beautiful lady, are you all alone? Want to come and have some fun with us?"
Upon seeing this, Ikawa Asagi frowned slightly.
She had just cleaned this alley not long ago, so why have these annoying flies come again?
Just as she was about to make her move, a righteous voice suddenly rang out from not far away: "What do you think you're doing in broad daylight?!"
Having said that, Lin Chuan strode up to Jinghe Asagi and said in a deep voice, "Miss, don't be afraid..."
As he spoke, a wave of embarrassment washed over him.
This kind of self-directed and self-acted hero-saves-the-damsel-in-distress act was a first for him; he really had no experience with it!
Chapter 155 A Trick! It's all a trick!
Holding shopping bags in her hands, and gazing at Lin Chuan's handsome face under the sunlight, Ikawa Asahi couldn't help but feel speechless.
Where did this guy come from?
If it weren't for you, I would have dealt with these annoying flies long ago.
Just then, seeing the two exchanging glances, the gang leader knew it was his turn to step in.
He pulled a butterfly knife from his pocket, waved it a few times casually, and said coldly, "Kid, I advise you not to meddle in other people's business. Get lost!"
Seeing this, Lin Chuan's face immediately darkened: "Miss, I've practiced Sanda for a few years. I'll hold them off for a bit, you run quickly."
Having said that, he strode towards the person without waiting for a response.
"Damn it, you won't listen to reason, so get them!"
At the command of the gang leader, the three thugs marched toward Lin Chuan in a triangular formation.
In a few moments, Lin Chuan swiftly took down one of the thugs. Glancing out of the corner of his eye, he saw Jinghe Asagi still standing there dumbfounded. Lin Chuan roared, "What are you standing there for? Run!"
Upon hearing this, Ikawa Asagi frowned slightly, a strange feeling stirring within her.
Is she being protected by someone?
Since her parents mysteriously disappeared when she was nine years old, she has joined the Anti-Demon Ninja.
No matter how much suffering she encountered, she always swallowed it all.
How long has it been? She hadn't felt that sense of being protected in so long.
Just as Ikawa Asagi was lost in thought, the situation on the field changed again.
Lin Chuan, whose arm was slashed with a long gash, struggled to break free from the battle, grabbed the beauty's soft, boneless hand, and growled, "Let's go!"
As he spoke, he pulled her and ran outside.
For the first time in her life, she had such intimate contact with a member of the opposite sex, and feeling that intense heat, Igawa Asahi felt her mind go blank.
After pretending to chase for a while, and waiting until Lin Chuan's figure completely disappeared, "Third Brother" looked at the gang leader with admiration: "Boss, you actually dared to swing your knife at that guy! As expected of the boss!"
Upon hearing this, the gang leader's face immediately turned ashen, as if he had swallowed a fly.
Heaven have mercy, even if you had a hundred lives, you wouldn't dare to raise your knife against that person.
I only intended to put on a show, but somehow my body started acting on its own.
This is absolutely outrageous—it's outrageous to the extreme!
Most importantly, this incident completely thwarted his original plan to curry favor with powerful figures.
You hurt the other person and still want to cling to their coattails? You'll be lucky to even save your own life.
"Alright! Let's go. Let's leave Tokyo today, or we'll be dead."
As soon as the words were spoken, more than ten ninja soldiers dressed in black clothes, black pants, and black masks silently appeared...
Leaving aside what happened to the four thugs, on the other side, Lin Chuan, carrying Ikawa Asagi, ran wildly. After confirming that they weren't chasing him, he released her, furious: "Why didn't you run just now?!"
Faced with this somewhat stiff tone, a hint of displeasure flashed in Igawa Asahi's eyes.
But then, upon seeing the wound on the other person's arm, which was more than ten centimeters long and bleeding continuously, her displeasure was immediately replaced by concern.
She took a handkerchief out of her pocket and used it to temporarily stop the bleeding, saying softly, "Let me take you to the hospital first."
Seeing her gentleness, Lin Chuan's attitude softened considerably: "No need! I can handle it myself at home."
"Such a serious injury requires treatment at the hospital."
Ultimately, at Igawa Asagi's insistence, Lin Chuan had no choice but to go to the hospital with her.
The wound he created, which cost him 1 story point, ultimately resulted in a doctor's order that he couldn't get it wet for a month.
After leaving the hospital, Lin Chuan looked at Jinghe Asagi and said, "Where do you live? I'll take you home. I'll pay you back tomorrow."
"Do not..."
"Absolutely necessary!"
Under Lin Chuan's insistence, Zhongjinghe Asagi had no choice but to agree.
Ten minutes later, after dropping the woman off at home, Lin Chuan said in a deep voice, "Alright! I'm leaving now. See you tomorrow!"
Having said that, he was about to leave.
Just then, Igawa Asahi's gentle voice came from behind: "Linchuan-kun, if you don't mind, please come in and have a cup of tea."
With a gentle wave of his left hand, Lin Chuan declined directly: "No need! I have other things to do. See you tomorrow."
Looking at the other person's back, Igawa Asahi opened her mouth, a hint of curiosity flashing in her eyes.
What a strange person!
She initially thought the other person saved her because of her good looks, but after spending half a day together, she realized that this was not the case.
After she had completely disappeared from sight, Igawa Asagi shook her head gently and returned home with her shopping bags.
Sakura and Murasaki will be back soon, and she needs to prepare the meal before then.
At the same time, Lin Chuan, who was playing hard to get, received a message from Ika.
In a dark and damp basement, an old man and a young boy were hanging in mid-air, their heads drooping like dead dogs.
There was hardly a piece of good flesh on their bodies. The young man was in slightly better condition, but the old man had his left arm cut off.
The next moment, with a flash of light resembling a period, Lin Chuan's tall figure quietly appeared.
Upon seeing Lin Chuan, Nika and Ika bowed deeply and greeted him: "Master!" *2
The old man, who was already on the verge of fainting, managed to lift his head upon hearing this.
When they discovered that the mastermind behind those terrifying monsters was such a young man, their pupils constricted sharply.
Then, with a serious expression, he asked, "Who exactly are you?"
Ignoring his question, Lin Chuan cast a True Sight Eye on him:
Name: Yagyu Ichiro (Seriously Injured)
Age: 64
Personality: Ruthless, hypocritical, and vindictive
Skills: Multiple Shadow Clone Technique, Lotus Flower, Wind-Walking Slash...
Favorability: -100
Overall strength: Earth Rank Perfection
My recent inner monologue: "Who exactly is this guy? How can he command such a terrifying army? Is he some kind of demon king's illegitimate son, Jay?"
Upon seeing the skills section, Lin Chuan raised an eyebrow slightly.
He then asked with great interest, "Are you an elder of the Demon Ninja?"
Upon hearing this, Yagyu Ichiro instantly confirmed his initial suspicions: "You really are a member of the Demon King's army! Who exactly are you? Aren't you afraid of causing conflict between humans and..."
"You talk too much!"
He said something coldly, and the ninja soldier next to him instantly understood, then delivered a high kick straight to his abdomen.
With a loud "whoosh," Yagyu Ichiro coughed up a mouthful of blood.
Upon seeing this, the young man who was hanging cried out urgently, "Father!"
Chapter 156 Igawa Sakura and Yazu Murasaki
"Father?"
Upon hearing the young man's address, Lin Chuan raised an eyebrow slightly.
The original show didn't seem to mention that the other party had a son, so without much hesitation, she immediately used True Sight on him.
