Dragon Raja: Starting with Summoning Erii

"What? Tired of it?"

Sakurai Kogure's eyes sparkled as she leaned against him.

Xia Mu silently shifted one step to the side, creating distance between them.

"Sister Xiaomu, I promised Yiyi I wouldn't let you touch me again, so please don't come near me, otherwise..."

He raised his middle finger.

Sakurai Kogure: "..."

"Wait a minute. I've already reported that you're completely obedient to me. The general might come and ask you about it again," she said, shaking her head.

"Ding."

The king will arrive as soon as he says he will.

The elevator doors opened, and he walked in wearing a strange mask.

Natsuki quickly shivered and huddled behind Sakurai Kogure.

"Good child, tell me, do you still want to go home?"

As expected, the king still trusted his control over Xia Mu more, so he always had to ask her personally.

Natsuki huddled behind Sakurai Kogure, not daring to look at him, and just tightly gripped the hem of Sakurai Kogure's clothes, saying, "No... I want to stay with Kogure-neechan."

The king looked at Sakurai Kogure.

Sakurai Kogure nodded to him.

"Well done," Wang said with satisfaction.

In his eyes, the personality of Xia Mu, the little boy controlled by the sound of the clapper, could not possibly lie.

"General, the isolation facility prepared for Xiao Mu is complete. Now he only listens to me. Can we move him there?"

Sakurai Kogure cautiously suggested, "After all, the Paradise Mansion is too big a target. If the Snake-Headed Eight Families come looking for us, we might not have time to move."

"Then let's move."

Wang waved his hand and left with the air of a big shot.

Recently, Genjiro's side is going crazy. On one hand, Tachibana Masamune is spending a lot of energy cooperating with Genjiro's investigation, and on the other hand, the King is trying to reduce the clues so that he can't be found out.

Even with his full map knowledge and omnipotence, he was still exhausted from the fight...

Chapter Seventy-One: The Curtain Rises

"very good."

Over the phone, Kazama Ruri instructed Sakurai Kogure: "Move there. I will secretly leak our whereabouts to the Snake-Headed Hachike family."

Sakurai Kogure lowered her eyes: "My lady, be careful not to be discovered by the general."

"Ah."

Ruri Kazama casually replied and hung up the phone.

Sakurai Kogure stared at her phone, which was now off, and remained silent for a moment before turning a smile to Natsuki and saying, "Kogure, you can leave now. Are you happy?"

"Ok!"

Xia Mu nodded firmly.

But in his heart, he didn't think so. Relying on the Snake-Headed Eight Families wouldn't work. It was like the left hand was being transferred to the right hand after the King's hand fell into the hands of Tachibana Masamune.

There are only two people who are truly on his side…

Chu Zihang.

The source is childish.

One of them has already been informed by Erii, and the other will naturally make the right choice when the time comes.

"call…"

Xia Mu reached out and rubbed her cheeks, took a deep breath, and slowly exhaled.

The crisp, cool air circulated through his lungs, gradually calming his mind.

The bloodline has awakened; it's time to break free from control.

"Sister Xiaomu, let's go."

Xia Mu smiled, her face innocent and naive.

"Xiao Mu, you..."

Sakurai Kogure hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped herself.

"What's wrong?" Xia Mu asked.

Sakurai Kogure's expression became slightly complicated: "You're actually... not as innocent as you seem, are you?"

Xia Mu paused for a moment: "What do you mean?"

Sakurai Kogure looked into his eyes: "Because your performance was so good, it was absolutely flawless."

Xia Mu immediately realized where he had given himself away.

This was unavoidable, since the agreement was to put on a show in front of the king, so one could only gain the trust of one side.

If he acts well, Sakurai Kogure will become suspicious of him.

If the performance is not good, the king will not be able to pass the test.

"You hid behind me, looking so attached and helpless..."

Sakurai Kogure lowered her eyes, her tone a mix of disappointment and relief: "I never imagined... you'd lied to everyone..."

"But I'm really afraid of that person..."

A genuine fear flashed across Xia Mu's face.

His performance remained flawless.

A hint of doubt flashed in Sakurai Kogure's eyes; her initial judgment was now becoming uncertain again.

Because she also knew Xia Mu's basic information, and knew that he had grown up under strict surveillance since childhood. If he had been pretending all along, how deep must his scheming be?

She instinctively couldn't believe it.

Deep down, she hoped that Xia Mu would still be the pure and warm light she imagined, illuminating the darkness within her heart.

Let's just pretend you're still that pure and innocent young man!

A relieved smile appeared on Sakurai Kogure's lips as she beckoned, "Come with me, big sister."

"Hai!"

Natsuki's smile was beautiful, at least in Sakurai Kogure's eyes.

The two got on the elevator.

A week later, Natsuki once again stepped into the ground floor hall of the Paradise Mansion, and was once again carefully put on a mask by Sakurai Kogure.

Her attentive and attentive manner made the men very envious.

But those who had seen Xia Mu a week earlier had a different mindset. They had witnessed this woman they had longed for serving another man for a week, as if the courtesan they had always fought over had been taken by someone else…

The price has dropped.

"Sigh, it won't be easy to do this anymore."

Sakurai Kogure keenly sensed this change and sighed inwardly.

For men, what has never been possessed by anyone else is always the most valuable.

Of course, there are also those that are widely popular.

They just love competition that much…

"Xiao Mu, turn off your phone."

Sakurai Kogure took Natsuki into the car and made this request to him.

"Aren't you deliberately trying to leak this to the family?" Xia Mu asked.

Sakurai Kogure shook her head: "Let's wait for you to prepare, sir. This matter is not so simple."

"Oh."

Xia Mumu nodded and sent out the license plate number before finally shutting down the phone.

On the other side, Chu Zihang stood like a wooden stake on the top of the high-rise building, gazing into the direction of the Paradise Pavilion.

Thanks to the message Natsuki sent through Erii, the location of the Paradise Mansion had already been revealed to him.

His mission was to observe the situation at the Japanese branch, and thanks to Natsuki's capture, this mission was successfully completed.

As for how to deal with the situation regarding mixed-race people in Japan, that's something for Principal Angers, the Commander-in-Chief of the Dragon Slayer Corps, to consider.

He, Chu Zihang, is just a good knife.

"Finally, once Natsuki is taken out of Tokyo, the mission will be successfully completed."

Chu Zihang sent the license plate number he received on his phone to Norma, asking her to track its location.

He then pulled out the Murasame from his backpack.

The blade remains as clean as new, without a single mark after so many years of use.

He remembered the one in Xia Mu's hand, and the excitement he felt when he found the Murasame under the overpass.

In any case, only Xia Mu and he had the same experience in this world.

"Crack!"

Chu Zihang put the Murasame back in his backpack, his phone displaying real-time location information from Norma.

Of course, Norma's location was under Kaguya's control and deployment.

The Snake Clan has mobilized in full force!

"This operation has only one objective: to reclaim the head of the Uesugi family!"
