Dragon Clan: Starting from obtaining Yaki, counterattack against the gods

Chapter 400 I Will Be the Lord of the Underworld
"How can you not remember Senior Sister? You two have such a good relationship. Your relationship is obviously so good..."

Lu Mingfei murmured, feeling as if struck by lightning. All his previous ideas became empty. He originally thought that if there was one person left in the world who remembered Minamoto no Chino, it must be Sakurai Kogure besides him.

Although he didn't understand the emotional entanglement between the two, he secretly envied the depth of their feelings. As a result, Sakurai Kogure didn't remember it. How could she not remember it?

Eri looked at the distraught boy in front of her curiously, and couldn't help asking in her heart: "Kang Kang, what's wrong with him? He looks very sad."

"I don't know either." The boy's voice sounded in her heart, with a hint of confusion: "I seem to have forgotten something, but I can't remember it."

"It's strange. I feel like I forgot something." Eri said. She touched her chest and frowned. "It feels empty here."

"But I can't remember what I forgot."

The reason why Sakurai Kogure was able to escape from the pursuit of the Snake Eight Families was all because of Eri's secret help. With Constantine around, the hybrids' hunting words were ineffective.

With the power of Erii in the Uesugi family and an identity that would never be suspected by the head of the family and the young master, Sakurai Kogure has been able to hide until now.

But even Eri herself couldn't understand why she wanted to help Sakurai Kogure. They were not familiar with each other, and Sakurai Kogure even wanted to destroy the Snake Eight Clan. But Eri just didn't want to see her get into trouble. She always felt that this would make her regret it.

If she was a mentally mature adult, she would definitely consider many factors, and then hesitate due to concerns about various possible serious consequences, and thus give up helping Sakurai Kogure.

But unfortunately, although Eri is an adult physically, her mental age has always remained relatively childish. This age is unreasonable. She wanted to save him, so she saved him. There was no other reason, and she never considered the consequences of doing so.

Even she herself couldn't explain why she wanted to save him.

Constantine is even simpler, he supports Eri unconditionally, that's all.

Lu Mingfei's disappointment only lasted for a short time. He quickly calmed down, or rather, he forced himself to suppress his disappointment. He gritted his teeth and said, "May I ask why you want to destroy the Eight Snake Clans?"

He still had some hope and asked, "Tell me, maybe I can help you."

The girl's thin figure was hidden in the darkness. Lu Mingfei couldn't see her appearance clearly. He only heard the low and hoarse voice ringing softly. She repeated his words, as if she was thinking.

"Help me? Why would you help me?" She seemed to find it ridiculous, her voice as cold as ice: "Why should I trust you?"

"To tell you the truth, the Snake Eight Clan are a bunch of hypocrites. They have made a mess of Japan. Sooner or later, they will be ridden by those Americans. In this case, why not just destroy it and let everyone be finished together?"

Although Lu Mingfei was extremely anxious on his way here, he still heard some of the conversations between Yuan Zhisheng and the others, and knew that the situation of the Eight Snake Clans was not good now.

To put it simply, there is a lack of someone who can control the situation. Angers' attitude is very ambiguous, and several old mixed-blood families headed by the Gattuso family appear to be particularly strong, and they seem to be ready to replace them.

That's why Gen Chisei and the others are so concerned about the information stolen by Sakurai Kogure. It's no exaggeration to say that they are facing internal and external troubles.

And I don't know how to put it, this patriarch always seems to be indecisive. No, not only the patriarch, but Yuan Zhisheng, the young master, doesn't seem to have much interest in managing the family, so much so that he lacks some courage.

It even makes people wonder how these two indecisive people could become the decision-makers of such a huge organization?
But come to think of it, if it weren't for Yuan Zhinv, how could the Eight Snakes have reached their current position? What the hell is Gattuso? He was beaten like a dog by Yuan Zhinv.

Thinking of this, he spoke directly: "You may not believe what I am going to say next, but I still have to say it. I think the main reason why you don't like the Eight Snake Clan is because someone is missing."

As if afraid of being interrupted, he spoke in a hurry: "You probably don't remember her, but she was your lover and the real master of the Sheqi Eight Clan. Now a dragon king has wiped out her existence. Her name is Yuan Zhinv. Do you still remember her?"

"Genji-no-Chijo..." Sakurai Kogure chewed on the name, as if thinking. Eri also blinked, feeling inexplicably familiar.

but…

"The power of the Dragon King?" Eri asked quietly in her heart: "Kang Kang, do you know?"

"I don't know." The boy answered in a low voice: "I didn't feel anything unusual. If there really is such a Dragon King, then his strength must be far greater than mine."

"Is that so?" Eri didn't hesitate and curiously looked at Sakurai Kogure in the shadows, but she saw nothing. The girl was always hiding in the shadows, as if she didn't want anyone to see her face.

"I know you definitely don't believe me, but I promise I'm not lying, and I don't know how to explain it..."

"I believe."

All the follow-up words were stuck in his throat. The girl's sharp interruption made Lu Mingfei stand there in a daze. He stared blankly at the person in the shadow, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.

The girl seemed to hesitate for a moment, and slowly walked out from the shadows. Only then did Lu Mingfei see her current appearance clearly, and he was stunned where he stood.

Her eyes were bloodshot, and if you looked closely you could see they were bloodshot. She looked emaciated, and her originally jet-black hair was slightly gray and seemed to be slowly turning white.

It is difficult to describe the feeling when seeing her. I just felt that she was very different from the gentle and charming girl in my memory. Lu Mingfei always felt that something was strange, but he couldn't put his finger on it.

But he soon lost the mood to think about all these things because of Sakurai Kogure's answer.

"What did you say?" Lu Mingfei widened his eyes, almost suspecting that he had heard it wrongly.

"I said I believe it." Sakurai Kogure said softly. Her voice was dry, as if she hadn't spoken for a long time.

"You remembered something, didn't you?!" Lu Mingfei instantly became excited: "I know you will never forget her, even if everyone in the world forgets her, you will never forget her! Your relationship can withstand any test!"

But something unexpected happened. Sakurai Kogure slowly shook his head: "No, I don't remember."

Facing Lu Mingfei's puzzled gaze, she lowered her head, and her long gray hair slowly covered her face, making it impossible to see her expression.

"But I don't think it should be like this." She put her hand on her chest and murmured softly, "I always feel like something is missing here. The Sheqi Eight Clan disgusts me."

"But if I hate them so much, why did I stay here for so long? This doesn't make sense. I hate this family, but I am willing to stay. There must be a reason for me to stay, but now I don't remember that reason."

"I think my memory is playing tricks on me. They all say I'm crazy, maybe."

"But if I lose this reason, I just want to destroy this family. It's too annoying. I want to burn it down..."

Lu Mingfei shivered slowly, and the strange feeling became stronger.

"Her name is... Genji-no-ji." Sakurai Kogure lowered his eyes, raised the corners of his mouth, and spoke in a voice as soft as the whispers between lovers: "Genji-no-ji..."

"You can also call her Kazama Ruri."

Lu Mingfei added that he always felt that there was something wrong with this girl's mental state. It seemed like she would pick up an axe and chop people at any time. No wonder she was regarded as a lunatic.

Forcing down the uneasiness in his heart, Lu Mingfei said: "Since you believe it, let's go find her now? Do you have any ideas?" Lu Mingfei would never admit that he had no ideas and just followed orders out of habit. He thought that he just trusted Yuan Zhinu's vision and that the girl she liked would definitely not be bad.

Just as he was thinking this, he heard Sakurai Kogure say, "Okay, then let's go and destroy the eight families of Snake first."

Lu Mingfei: "?"

Lu Mingfei was stunned, staring blankly at the girl in front of him, but Sakurai Kogure just said, "It's too slow to find it by yourself, let the entire underworld look for it together, let all the mixed-bloods in the world look for it together. Since you said that this family belongs to her, then I will keep it for her temporarily."

Sakurai Kogure said as she drew out her knife. The sharp blade gleamed coldly in the moonlight. She lowered her head and admired it expressionlessly: "It would be great if we could kill them all."

Eri looked at this and that, and felt that she should say something, so she spoke weakly: "I think it's better not to go and die."

"My father and brother are very good." She said sincerely: "They are both good fighters."

Sakurai Kogure's eyes flashed with viciousness, and he sneered: "Then kill as many as you can, until they kill me."

"I can't hide anymore, can I?"

Lu Mingfei hesitated for a long time before he raised his hand weakly: "Well, I can help you."

Facing the gazes of the two, he seemed to have made up his mind and gritted his teeth: "I can help you deal with those with strong bloodlines, but you have to promise to help me find my senior sister."

"Let everyone go find her."

Sakurai Kogure smiled when she heard that. Her scarlet eyes flashed with a faint golden color. She nodded nonchalantly, "Okay."

"What a bunch of useless people. I should be the head of the family."

……

"Ange, what do you mean?"

The huge conference room was empty, and the two old men were facing each other coldly. Uesugi Yue looked at the old man in front of him, who was still graceful even at his age, and couldn't help but feel angry:
"Did you allow Gattuso and his gang to enter Japan? Do they have the right to tell me what to do?"

Angers picked up the hot tea in front of him and blew on it. The hot steam blurred his face. He said calmly, "The situation is worrying. It all depends on your ability."

"If Japan cannot produce the corresponding strength, then we should give up some authority. Isn't it urgent to slay the dragon first?"

"Then you still support internal fighting?" Shangshan Yue's face became colder and colder: "Why, do you think we are the only one in power?"

"That's not the case. The main reason is that if they don't see any benefits, they won't be willing to contribute."

Ange smiled, but it was a shallow smile, with a glimmer in his cloudy eyes: "I don't care who is the boss among you, I just need enough strength to slay the dragon."

Shang Shanyue snorted coldly, and just as he was about to speak, he suddenly turned his head and looked outside the door: "Who's there!"

Ange also narrowed his eyes. The next moment, the door of the conference room was pushed open and Eiry poked out her furry head with a guilty expression.

Seeing that it was her, Uesugi Yue obviously relaxed a little, but before he could open his mouth to blame, the tall girl walked out from behind Eri with a cold expression.

"Sakurai Kogure." Uesugi Yue was stunned for a moment, his expression changed rapidly, and finally he glared at Eri fiercely: "You are fooling around again!"

Eiry stuck out her tongue and looked away guiltily, not daring to look at Sugi Yue's face.

"Okay, okay, you actually dared to come to my door." Uesugi Yue suppressed the thought of teaching the child a lesson in his heart, took a deep breath, and looked at Sakurai Kogure coldly: "I think you are tired of living."

"Really?" Sakurai Kogure smiled: "Maybe."

Ange watched this scene with great interest, with no intention of intervening. But he soon could no longer relax, because Lu Mingfei slowly walked out from behind Sakurai Kogure.

Lu Mingfei also lowered his head, but still stood next to Sakurai Kogure stubbornly.

At this moment, both Uesugi Yue and Angers' expressions changed.

Lu Mingfei's palms were full of cold sweat. The devil's voice rang in his mind, but he could not hear any emotion.

"Are you really going to use a quarter of your life in exchange for me helping you deal with these bastards? Isn't that a waste, brother? I remember you were a very timid person."

“Stop talking nonsense. I must find my senior sister.” Lu Mingfei cursed back in his heart.

"Why don't you just give me your entire life? I guarantee that you can find your senior sister and even bring her back safely." The devil tempted slowly.

“Nonsense, why should I live if I’ve given you my whole life?!” Lu Mingfei said, “I can find my sister myself!”

"Besides, I haven't seen my senior sister rule the world yet. I can't die. She promised to protect me."

He seemed to be talking to the devil, but also seemed to be talking to himself.

He also had another idea that he hadn't said out loud, which was that Genji had never allowed him to make a deal with the devil. He always felt that there was something wrong with it, so he didn't dare to act on his own.

1/4 of his life was a test. If he traded it all at once, he was afraid that something unpredictable would happen.

But there is no need to tell this to the devil.

"Lu Mingfei, do you want to help this traitor?" Shang Shanyue asked in a low voice, his tone serious: "She is a lunatic!"

Lu Mingfei didn't say anything, but his attitude said it all. Sakurai Xiaogure laughed again, his laughter was harsh and crazy: "Head, are you scared?"

"But don't worry, I won't do anything to you. I just want to discuss something with the head of the family. For example, how about letting me take your position as the head of the family?"

As she spoke, she tilted her head slightly. The moonlight came through the cracks in the window, illuminating her long gray hair. Her scarlet eyes were filled with desperate madness.

At this moment everyone was stunned, and a strange feeling came over them, as if this scene was familiar.

Lu Mingfei finally understood where that strange feeling came from. That look was too familiar. He had seen a girl like this before. She was his senior sister.

Sakurai Kogure doesn't remember Minamoto no Chitose, but she lives her life like Minamoto no Chitose.
