Super War God in the City-Chapter 602: Man of Shadows

Following Amaya Rei, a group of ninjas exchanged glances, unsure of what had happened in the village.

It took a good while before Amaya Rei collected herself, her face pale as she said, "Someone, go up and investigate what has happened!"

As her words fell, a ninja immediately stepped forward and sprinted up the mountain.

The scouting ninja dashed along, feeling an increasing tremor of fear as he approached the Ninja Village.

By this time, the battle on the mountain had already ceased, with only the glaring firelight and a trail of corpses and wreckage, signaling the extraordinary fierceness of the recent battle.

"Swoosh!"

The scouting ninja arrived at the trench, suddenly stopping as the scorched earth still emitted wisps of smoke, carrying a choking burnt smell.

Looking up at the mountain, he could faintly make out numerous figures.

The ninja felt even more alarmed. Was Yinghe being besieged by the army?

Under the shock, he hesitated slightly, then surged forward again, intent on understanding more.

Before long, he was extremely close to the core of the village on the mountaintop, climbing a large tree to look out. This time, he could see clearly.

Densely packed, thousands of mercenaries were clearing the battlefield, occasionally firing additional shots into the bodies within the village.

"Huff~"

The ninja's heart trembled excessively, almost losing his balance and falling from the tree. Without a second word, he hurried down the tree, intending to rush back and report.

"Swoosh!"

The moment his figure landed, a flash of black light passed, severing his throat.

The ninja widened his eyes, covering his neck, falling unwillingly into a pool of blood.

Suddenly, a dark shadow slowly emerged, precisely the Shrine Death Servant who had followed Ling Fan.

Down the mountain, Amaya Rei and the others were growing anxious.

"Damn, why hasn't he returned yet?" Amaya Rei muttered anxiously.

"Let's go, follow me up to take a look!"

Amaya Rei took a deep breath, unable to leave at ease until he understood what was happening above.

Immediately, he led his men as they stealthily made their way closer to the village's inner perimeter. When they got close, Amaya Rei was stunned by the devastation.

"Damn, why did the army attack our Yinghe? Have they gone mad?" Amaya Rei's throat went dry, unable to comprehend why the army would target Yinghe.

On the territory of Snow Country, he could not fathom what other force could have accomplished this.

Moments later, Amaya Rei and his men had reached the trench.

"Everyone be careful, if anything seems off, we leave immediately!" After hesitating for a moment, Amaya Rei instructed his men, then led them to stealthily advance towards the mountaintop again.

Moments later, Amaya Rei and his men were ambushed.

"Escape, run!" Amaya Rei, having been slashed, tumbled aside and cried out in panic.

The one who ambushed them was the same dark figure who had killed the scouting ninja.

Suddenly, those in the village heard faint sounds of a struggle coming from below. Elf and several Elder Leisure People exchanged looks, said nothing, and with a flash, rushed down the mountain.

Ling Fan's brows furrowed slightly, judging from the sound, it wasn't very far from here.

"Wait here for a moment!" Ling Fan instructed Nick and the others, his figure shifting, before disappearing from sight.

When Official Ling arrived, he found Elf and others furiously attacking a dark figure.

The shadow was indeed formidable. Despite being surrounded and attacked by several Elder Leisure People, it showed itself to be slightly less skilled, but there was no immediate danger to its life.

The elves and others grew increasingly alarmed as the battle raged on. They hadn't expected such a master to be hidden within Ninja Village, to the extent that even several Elder Leisure People combined couldn't subdue him in short order.

Ling Fan stood to the side with a slight frown, having long noticed the figure that had been following him.

"Stop!" Ling Fan suddenly called out to the combatants.

Upon hearing this, the elves, though surprised, did not continue their attacks.

The figure across from them also refrained from attacking, instead stepping aside with a complex look towards Official Ling.

Ling Fan sighed and said to the shadow, "You've followed all this way; won't you come over?"

The elves glanced at each other, realizing the flood had washed over the Dragon King Temple—Ling Fan knew the person!

The shadow hesitated slightly but then promptly came over to Ling Fan's side.

"How did you detect me? It seems my Art of Stealth has flaws!" the shadow said.

"Heh, it's not that your Art of Stealth has flaws, but that anyone who enters a certain range of my body cannot hide!" Ling Fan replied with a mild laugh.

"That explains it. I was very careful, yet you still managed to find me!" the shadow said quietly.

"Beiming, who is he?" the elves immediately crowded around.

Ling Fan chuckled bitterly, "Demon Moon!"

As he spoke, the shadow promptly removed the mask and tore off the lifelike silicone mask on his face—it was none other than Demon Moon!

The elves exchanged looks upon seeing this. It was Demon Moon, one of the four great Assassins, no wonder they had been unable to defeat her.

And this extensive campaign led by Ling Fan to attack Ninja Village had been for Demon Moon.

"Where have you been these days, and why would you hide in the 'Sakura Association'?" Ling Fan curiously inquired.

At the 'Sakura Association's entrance, during the dangerous moment for Nami Amayama, Demon Moon was about to surreptitiously help when she unwittingly neared Ling Fan's sensory range and was detected by him.

That was when Ling Fan realized that Demon Moon had been hiding near the 'Sakura Association'. He was quite surprised at the time and did not expose her then.

Demon Moon sighed and honestly revealed to Official Ling the details of her travel after secretely leaving Xiangjiang during the past few days.

After leaving Xiangjiang, she had returned to Snow Country and entered a shrine, killed the Chief Priest's personal Shrine Death Servant, and took his place by disguising herself.

She originally planned to stay hidden beside the Chief Priest, plant a fake secret manual in the shrine, and then ignite a conflict between the ninjas and the shrine to divert the disaster elsewhere.

However, before she could begin implementing her plan, Official Ling arrived, riding the auspicious clouds, stirring up a storm in Snow Country.

She had then received an order from the Chief Priest to go to the 'Sakura Association' and abduct Yukieko. After lying in wait for half a day, she was surprised to find that Yukieko was with Ling Fan.

Thus, she abandoned the idea of abducting Yukieko and instead planned to secretly protect her. However, after Yukieko left with Nami Amayama, she did not need to worry too much.

She then followed Official Ling all the way here. Upon seeing this scene, even if Demon Moon were dim-witted, she would understand Ling Fan's purpose.

She was profoundly moved, realizing Ling Fan had come here alone, risking danger and mobilizing such a massive troop to fight in Snow Country for her.

Considering the timing, it seemed he had started preparing right after she quietly left him. Besides, mobilizing such a large force of thousands silently would require how much energy?

In Demon Moon's heart, the word 'touched' was no longer enough to describe her feelings.

Immediately, without caring if there were others around, she fiercely embraced Official Ling, her crimson, tender lips deeply pressing against his in a passionate kiss.

The elves coughed dryly and turned their heads away, the scene and the atmosphere suddenly conjured a unique kind of romance.

Peng Ming sneaked a peek from the side, clicking his tongue and musing to himself that no matter what, he would never learn the boss' knack for wooing women.

Let alone Demon Moon; if he were a woman, he would certainly be overwhelmed by emotion too!
