The death of the samurai in Japan caused a furious uproar within the royal family.
After all, he was a force of the royal family, and his slaying by Ye Qiu could not leave them indifferent. An undercurrent surged within the royal family, and the name of Ye Qiu, a young Chinese martial arts genius, entered the ears of many people.
"Ye Qiu! I had no idea there was such a formidable figure in China, having killed Jiu Zang and Fujikawa Ueno. Now, Gu Yamashiro Baiichi is in China; fear he might personally strangle this emerging martial arts genius," someone commented.
"What a pity, with Mr. Gu Yamashiro taking action, he won't be able to survive. Otherwise, I really would have liked to meet him!" another sighed.
In various martial arts circles throughout Japan, the name Ye Qiu sparked a desire to challenge him, with many lamenting that they could not personally take down this Chinese talent.
