Divine Doctor from the Start of the Eye Mutation

Chapter 1756 1756: Evenly Matched

"That's right, you've really piqued my interest, so just tell us what's going on."

After some mystery-building, Little Beard said, "The situation is quite simple. At the time, the Hoshino Family and the Asou Family led a battle against Watanabe Family and Kai Family, and truly their powers were evenly matched.

However, at the most crucial moment of the battle, two people suddenly appeared. My master said that both of them are masters of the Dawen Realm, and their appearance directly changed the course of the battle."

"So, on whose side were these two Dawen Realm individuals standing, and what was the situation then?"

Little Beard replied, "Those two people suddenly appeared and attacked the Hoshino Family. The Hoshino Family and the Asou Family were completely unprepared. Having such a master appear was enough to change the course of the battle, resulting in the Hoshino Family suffering severe losses."

"Then it must have been a disaster for the Hoshino Family. Originally, both sides had similar power, with a few strong cultivators hidden among them, but suddenly two Dawen Realm cultivators appeared that were truly able to turn the tides."

"Dawen Realm cultivators are considered experts no matter where they are found."

"It's really strange, where did these two cultivators come from? Surely, they're not from the Watanabe Family. If the Watanabe Family had such hidden masters, why didn't they come forward earlier?"

"I've heard that a major event is about to happen. Practitioners across the realm are waiting for an opportunity, perhaps these two cultivators are from some mysterious place."

Hearing this, Ling Zhenfei had nearly understood the course of events.

It seems the Watanabe Family and the Hoshino Family always had friction, but recently the conflict escalated to a boiling point, which is why Ling Zhenfei hasn't been able to contact Hoshino Junka.

There are definitely frequent battles happening, and according to Little Beard, there was another big battle last night.

At that time, it involved the Hoshino Family, the Asou Family, and some other related sects.

The opposition was the Watanabe Family and the Kai Family, along with some other families.

Both sides were evenly matched, but during the fight, two Dawen Realm cultivators suddenly appeared on the Watanabe Family's side, causing the situation to change drastically.

The appearance of two Dawen Realm cultivators could easily alter anything, so the Hoshino Family suffered serious losses.

Ling Zhenfei couldn't help but worry about the safety of Hoshino Junka and Hoshino Meigetsu.

But there's also Watanabe Hideaki on the Watanabe side. It's unfortunate for either side to be harmed.

Ling Zhenfei was quite shocked and thought he should visit the Hoshino Family as soon as possible.

But how should he go to the Hoshino Family? Surely, he couldn't just stroll in openly—that definitely wouldn't work.

Firstly, both sides have harbored deep resentment for years, so undoubtedly there are spies on both sides. If he just went openly, they'd definitely find out.

To take them by surprise, he would need to go stealthily and give the Watanabe Family a shock.

Regarding the attitudes of both sides, Ling Zhenfei clearly supports the Hoshino Family, not only because of Hoshino Junka, but also because previously Watanabe Kazushi nearly killed him twice.

Moreover, the Hoshino Family had once saved Ling Zhenfei's life, so there's no doubt about Ling Zhenfei's stance.

These people were still chatting, but the conversation no longer had anything of value.

After finishing his meal, Ling Zhenfei left. It was already dusk. Ling Zhenfei returned to the inn where he was staying, rested briefly, and then it was nighttime.

He wondered whether there would be another fight between the Watanabe Family and the Hoshino Family tonight.

Last night's battle had already caused significant losses for the Hoshino Family, but he believed the Watanabe Family wouldn't fare too well either.

With those two mysterious individuals around, would the Watanabe Family launch another sneak attack tonight?

With this thought, Ling Zhenfei left the inn and headed towards the Hoshino Family.

Ling Zhenfei's movement resembled a swift bird, flitting tens of meters in the blink of an eye, his speed incredibly fast.

Enhanced by the Blooming Step Technique, his form was ghostly.

Avoiding people on the road as much as possible, Ling Zhenfei leaped over rooftops and crossed walls, soon reaching the Hoshino Family's premises.

Although it was very late, the Hoshino Family was brightly lit.

There didn't seem to be many guards, but Ling Zhenfei knew the Hoshino Family had set a trap, just waiting for someone to walk into it.

Despite their severe losses yesterday, the Hoshino Family had not been critically weakened and shouldn't be underestimated.

Ling Zhenfei found it strange—what was this grudge between Watanabe Kazushi and Hoshino Yuji even over, that it led to such excessive strife?

Although the Hoshino Family was prepared with a trap, it was impossible to stop Ling Zhenfei.

Ling Zhenfei didn't use Divine Sense but employed the Soul Out of Body technique to accurately locate everyone's hidden positions.

Even if the Hoshino Family had experts hidden within, if they were to sense Northern Spiritual Energy, now that Ling Zhenfei wasn't using it, it was unlikely anyone would notice him.

Ling Zhenfei easily avoided these people and headed toward the center of the Hoshino Estate.

With guards stationed all around, the crucial point must be at the center. Having been here before, Ling Zhenfei knew the small building where Hoshino Meigetsu was located.

But before he reached the pavilion, he saw the figure of someone.

Ling Zhenfei saw clearly and couldn't help but smile slightly—it was none other than the one he thought about day and night, Hoshino Junka.

Hoshino Junka was a Little Witch, her personality very different from Hoshino Meigetsu. She was dressed in tight black clothes like a proper ninja.

Attached to her waist were two katanas, one long and one short, completing the ninja-samurai appearance.

But such a dazzling ninja-samurai was indeed a rare sight.

Ling Zhenfei hadn't seen Hoshino Junka for so long that he sincerely missed this Little Witch.

Looking at Hoshino Junka now, he thought of teasing her a bit.

Despite Hoshino Junka being a Little Witch, after her encounter with Ling Zhenfei, her strength was only at the initial stage of the Zhiyi Boundary.

The early stage of the Zhiyi Boundary is considered decent, yet from Ling Zhenfei's perspective, it's still too weak.

Ling Zhenfei's Northern Spiritual Energy was exceptionally powerful, hidden near Hoshino Meigetsu, and then he suddenly used his Northern Spiritual Energy when Hoshino Meigetsu approached.

His energy split into several strands, rushing out from his body, instantly enveloping Hoshino Junka.

Hoshino Meigetsu suddenly felt her body entangled by something and unable to move, instantly panicking and shouting, "Who is it?"

However, Ling Zhenfei anticipated that Hoshino Junka would cry out, so next to Hoshino Junka, he created a Northern Spiritual Energy shield, enclosing her within.

No matter how much Hoshino Junka shouted, nobody would hear her.

Additionally, given the secluded location, it's unlikely anyone would notice anything happening to Hoshino Junka here.

"Who is it, who's doing this to me?"
