Seeing Master had no intention of hanging up the phone, Chen Yang said, "I've heard some things about the Witch Miao Manuscript, so I wanted to learn more."
"Who told you?"
"The Japanese."
"The Japanese? What do they want?"
Chen Yang recounted the events that had occurred in the Miao region to his master, and through the phone came Master Li's scoffing laughter: "Those Iga-ryu ninjas really must not want to live, daring to provoke the Wu Miao. If the Witch Miao Manuscript was that easy to steal, it would have long since been out of Wu Miao's hands. These fools should count themselves lucky that nothing happened; otherwise, if Wu Miao became enraged, it wouldn't just be Iga-ryu - I fear even other ninja sects in Japan might be implicated."
Chen Yang didn't bother worrying about the safety of the ninja sects. He asked, "Old Li, what exactly is the Witch Miao Manuscript?"
