Chapter 339 Okudo's Fist
The outer perimeter of the Sun and Moon Palace.
An old man suddenly emerged from a corner of a main road.
The old man stood leaning on a cane, his eyes cloudy, his footprints uneven.
"Shopkeeper, a bowl of wine, please." The old man walked up to a wine shop and said, while tremblingly taking out a gold soul coin with a missing corner from his pocket.
A burly man with a towel draped over his shoulder walked over, took the gold soul coin, held it up to the light and examined it carefully, seemingly trying to determine if it was counterfeit.
"Old man, please come inside!" After verifying the authenticity of the gold soul coins, the burly man smiled and invited the old man into the shop.
After turning left and passing through a short corridor, once inside the store, the burly man's smile vanished, replaced by a respectful expression.
The burly man knelt on one knee and said, "Secret Agent Number 109 greets Your Excellency!"
The old man placed his hands on his cane and nodded slightly. "Alright, you can go now."
The burly man nodded and stepped back.
The old man walked to a room marked number sixteen, went inside, and reached out to remove the disguise from his face, revealing the face of "Xiao Nanye".
After destroying the old man's disguise, Ye Nanxiao tapped on the wall for a while, opened a secret passage, and went inside.
Half an hour later, Ye Nanxiao removed the disguise mask of "Xiao Nanye" and walked towards the snack street, intending to sneak back into the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy.
"Boss! One bucket of Happy Snacks, please!" Ye Nanxiao said as he walked to the shop he frequented.
"Oh, it's you! We just happen to have some stock. Here you go!" The shopkeeper put various skewers into a snack bucket and handed it to Ye Nanxiao.
Ye Nanxiao took the snack bucket, but out of the corner of his eye he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure.
Although the person was disguised, Ye Nanxiao still saw through the disguise at a glance and realized that the figure was He Caitou in disguise.
"Caitou? Why are you leaving in such a hurry?" Ye Nanxiao turned his head and saw He Caitou's figure hurriedly turning into a small alley.
Ye Nanxiao was somewhat puzzled. He Caitou usually didn't go out alone, and as Huo Yuhao's mobile arsenal, He Caitou's actions were always tied to Huo Yuhao's.
Huo Yuhao's actions can be carried out without He Caitou, but He Caitou's actions require Huo Yuhao's assistance. This is an ironclad rule that Shrek Academy has set for He Caitou.
In Mingdu, He Caitou cannot leave the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy at will.
Ye Nanxiao, carrying the bucket of snacks, quickly followed.
He Caitou disguised his face and walked hurriedly. When he encountered passersby who blocked his way, he quickly avoided them without slowing down.
After following for a while, Ye Nanxiao suddenly realized that He Caitou was heading towards the Sun and Moon Palace.
Many things have happened in the Sun and Moon Palace, so why is He Caitou heading towards the Sun and Moon Palace?
"Could the black-clad assassins in the palace be related to Cai Tou?" Ye Nanxiao frowned slightly, put away the snack bucket in his hand, and quickly caught up with He Cai Tou.
Ye Nanxiao lowered his head, quickly ran his left hand across his face, put on a disguise mask, caught up with He Caitou's pace, and gently placed a palm on He Caitou's shoulder.
Suddenly, his shoulder was pressed down. A fierce glint flashed in He Caitou's eyes, but then a simple, honest smile appeared on his face. He turned around, looked at the unfamiliar young man in front of him, and said, "Brother? Have you got the wrong person? I don't know you."
With a smile on his face, He Caitou quickly memorized the facial features of the person in front of him, and after a rapid mental scan, he found a prominent figure in his memory.
"Heavenly King covers the Earth Tiger!" A slightly childish voice rang out.
He Caitou paused for a moment, then quickly replied in a low voice, "The Xuan Turtle can demolish walls!"
"I don't seem to know you, but why do you have the code for my Tang Clan's special operations? Lord Xiao Nanye?" He Caitou said quickly, his right fist slightly clenched.
He recognized the person in front of him as Xiao Nanye, who had caused trouble in the Mingdu underworld before, but this person did not belong to the Tang Clan.
Either Xiao Nanye obtained the code from the Tang Clan's Special Operations Department, or this person learned it from someone within the Special Operations Department.
People in the special operations department will not reveal codes unless it is a soul-searching sorcery!
"Goji berries in tea, one cup will refresh your mind." Seeing that He Caitou was still on guard, Ye Nanxiao remembered that the disguise he was wearing was "Xiao Nanye", so he quickly changed the code.
"Two cups for eternal health, three cups for immortality! Nanxiao? How is it you?" He Caitou asked in surprise.
Ye Nanxiao patted He Caitou on the shoulder, wiped his face with his left hand, and added some disguise to the "Xiao Nanye" mask. The two walked into a teahouse and asked for a private room.
After tossing out two silencing beads, Ye Nanxiao asked, "So, where are you rushing off to?"
He Caitou removed the disguise from his face and fiddled with the miniature teacup in his hands.
Ye Nanxiao shook his head, revealing his true face.
"I"
"You want to go to the Sun and Moon Palace? Why?" Ye Nanxiao asked directly.
A look of surprise flashed in He Caitou's eyes. "How did you know?"
Then He Caitou sighed and said, "He Caitou is my later name. Before that, my name was Xu He!"
"The Xu family of the Sun and Moon Sect, is that right?" Ye Nanxiao asked.
He Caitou nodded with a bitter expression and sighed deeply, "Now that you've guessed it's the Xu family of Riyue, you should know why I changed my name to He Caitou."
"There have always been many conflicts within the royal family. You escaped from the royal family and changed your name," Ye Nanxiao said, rubbing his temples.
He Caitou nodded, his usual honest and simple demeanor vanished, replaced by a ferocious expression and eyes flashing with deep-seated hatred.
"Do you know that the Sun and Moon Emperor's throne was not inherited! He seized it!"
"They took up the butcher's knife! They snatched it from my lineage!"
"Bang!"
He Caitou crushed the teacup in his hand with force, and tea splashed everywhere.
Ye Nanxiao silently glanced at the sign stuck in the corner of the table: "Damage to teaware will result in full compensation!"
He Caitou took out a round jade pendant from his pocket. It was engraved with patterns of the sun and the moon and was emitting a fluorescent glow.
"This jade plaque has been passed down from my ancestors. It is a family heirloom. Whenever an emperor passes away and the royal bell tolls, the sun and moon on this jade plaque will light up, signifying that the next emperor will soon return to the throne and rule the sun and moon again!" He Caitou stroked the jade plaque in his hand and placed it on the table.
"So, you received news of the Sun and Moon Emperor's passing? That's why you rushed to the Sun and Moon Palace?" Ye Nanxiao picked up the jade tablet, turned it over in his hand, and couldn't tell what kind of soul tool it was.
"Go back? I dare not. The Sun Moon Empire has never stopped hunting down Xu He. If I go back, wouldn't that be sending myself to my death?" He Caitou's eyes were bloodshot, and large tears streamed down his face.
"My parents, my younger brothers and sisters all sacrificed their lives to let me escape! How could I not cherish my life! I must avenge them!" He Caitou's eyes were filled with tears. The once tough and honest man was now crying his heart out.
Ye Nanxiao released two more silencing beads and summoned a clone to stand guard at the door.
He Caitou took the initiative to reveal his identity, and Ye Nanxiao had to keep this secret between the two of them.
"You approached the Sun and Moon Palace to confirm the accuracy of the news of the Sun and Moon Emperor's death. What do you plan to do after that? As an extreme individual soldier, or as a member of Shrek Academy, will you go back to fight your way out?" Ye Nanxiao asked.
For one person to launch a counterattack against Xu Tianran's empire, unless He Caitou reaches the level of a ninth-level Soul Master, he would be nothing more than a lamb to the slaughter in Kong Deming's Sun and Moon Palace.
"No matter what, I will gather my strength and launch a revenge, even if it costs me my life!" He Caitou wiped away his tears and said resolutely.
Upon hearing this, Ye Nanxiao felt a headache coming on. Ju Xiaohan was determined to take revenge even at the cost of his life, as was He Caitou. Both of them were friends that Ye Nanxiao acknowledged, and he couldn't just do nothing.
Taking a deep breath, Ye Nanxiao thought it over and decided to tell He Caitou about his plan.
Since I can't offer advice, I'll see if I can help!
He Caitou suddenly stood up and faced Ye Nanxiao. His tall figure collapsed like a mountain, and he was about to kneel in front of Ye Nanxiao.
Ye Nanxiao frowned, his figure shifted slightly, and he raised his hand to press down on He Caitou, forcibly making He Caitou sit back down.
He Caitou's face showed shock. He was well aware of his own strength, but he had no ability to resist Ye Nanxiao.
"Nanxiao! If Xiao Nanye is you, then I beg you to lend me a hand! My soul tool talent is not as good as yours, and my martial soul is not of the combat attribute. I implore you! Help me!" He Caitou pleaded earnestly.
He wants to deal with the Sun Moon Royal Family, which means taking action against an entire nation. However, the Tang Sect will not and cannot intervene in this matter.
Moreover, the Tang Clan is still in its nascent stage, and He Caitou cannot drag it down a path of no return because of his own hatred. From the beginning, he planned to launch an attack on Xu Tianran alone under the identity of Xu He.
Seeing the pleading look on He Caitou's face, Ye Nanxiao nodded in agreement without hesitation.
He Caitou was overjoyed, then saw Ye Nanxiao take out another disguise mask.
"Do you recognize this face?" Ye Nanxiao placed Mu Shiyi's disguise mask on the table.
"What is this?" He Caitou asked in confusion.
Ye Nanxiao pointed to the disguise mask and said, "This is the face of the boss behind the Aodu Chamber of Commerce, and also the most valuable face on the Sun Moon Empire's underworld bounty list."
"The Aodu Chamber of Commerce! The legendary figure who united the Mingdu underworld and stood against the evil soul masters, that's you!" He Caitou exclaimed in surprise.
Ye Nanxiao nodded. "You want revenge, you want to take revenge on Xu Tianran's lineage and reclaim the throne that was stolen from you. Coincidentally, I also have my own goals. I need the rulers of the Sun Moon Empire to change some rules!"
Ye Nanxiao extended his hand to He Caitou. "Do you need my help, my friend?"
He Caitou snapped out of his shock, looked at Ye Nanxiao's outstretched hand, and without hesitation, grasped it.
"Damn it! Why are you using so much force?!"
"Sorry, sorry, I got too excited!" He Caitou scratched his head and chuckled sheepishly.
Ye Nanxiao rubbed his palms. As expected of the man Lin Jiayi called a monster, He Caitou's physical strength was exceptionally strong. When he got excited and shook hands, even his constantly improving physique could feel pain.
"From today onwards, you will be the fist of the Aodu Chamber of Commerce." Ye Nanxiao took out a token engraved with a fist pattern and placed it in He Caitou's hand.
Although He Caitou possesses a food-type martial soul, his monstrous physique will eventually allow him to stand at the pinnacle of his generation of soul masters. With the assistance of a soul tool, his future achievements will not be inferior to those of Bei Bei and others.
"Maybe He Caitou and Ju Xiaohan could form the Avengers."
