Inside the Emperor's Palace, a shocking confrontation unfolds.
Eight elite fighters of Japan encircle Xiao Chen, eager to kill.
An intense battle is about to ignite.
Clang!
The Divine Sword unsheathed, its sword intent fills the sky.
Miyamoto Mototaka leads the attack, his ice-cold, merciless sword resounding like a ghostly wail, tearing through the night sky as it stabs towards Xiao Chen from behind.
Apart from Abe Harumi, whose strength was unclear, Miyamoto Mototaka was the foremost expert in the group assembled to take down Xiao Chen.
He struck first, as that was the safest course of action.
So far, the gathered fighters knew very little about Xiao Chen. They only understood that he was audacious, having slain Ji Yuangang with two palm strikes and brazenly challenging the Emperor and the Divine Shinto Sect.
Miyamoto Mototaka struck first, with the others supporting from the side, ready to adapt to any change.
"Kill!"
