"Otherwise?"

Miyamoto Kuro sneered at Xu Fan's words and looked over at him.

His expression was filled with confidence.

Originally, he wanted to solve the issue with Xu Fan peacefully, but now that the mask was off, peace? It's no longer possible.

This time, Miyamoto Kuro was determined to obtain the secret manuals of Dongying's major martial arts families, and the confrontation with Xu Fan meant he naturally had ways to deal with Xu Fan.

"Hmph, to deal with you, I have paid quite a price this time."

He had already confirmed Xu Fan's cultivation level was high, but Miyamoto Kuro showed no fear.

Before Xu Fan arrived, he had already arranged everything.

Now, the incense burning within the bronze tripod in this grand hall was named Soul Capturing! This poison is one of the family's secret treasures!

There were only less than ten sticks in total, and this time to deal with Xu Fan, three sticks were used directly!

Soul Capturing Incense, when inhaled, doesn't cause major reactions, but when combined with Heart-Losing Powder in the tea, it's the most unique poison in the world!

The poisoned person's cultivation is greatly restricted in a short period of time, and their mind is affected, causing hallucinations.

By then, under the attack of the bronze beasts arranged in this grand hall, within ten minutes, Xu Fan would be terrified beyond measure!

From the time he entered until now, considerable time had passed, and it wouldn't be long before the poison in Xu Fan's body took effect.

Miyamoto Kuro's face was increasingly filled with smugness.

"Hmph, Xu Fan, your life and death are in my hands now; what qualification do you have to play tricks on me?"

"I hope you can think it through within ten minutes!"

With a cold snort, Miyamoto Kuro turned the mechanism on the table, and instantly, he vanished!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Just then, the grand hall's doors and windows emitted sounds, and the alloy-made doors and windows extended, sealing the grand hall completely!

At the same time, the bronze shikigami arranged in the grand hall began to move!

These grim-faced shikigami are masterpieces of the Honda family's mechanical techniques.

Not only can they move, but they also contain hundreds of hidden weapons within!

Ordinary martial artists, if they are not careful, will perish under these mechanical beasts.

Additionally, those affected by Soul Capturing Incense will see hallucinations, and later on, the moving mechanical beasts won't be mechanical beasts due to the hallucinations.

Instead, they'll be monsters that devour people!

By then, within ten minutes, under the influence of hallucinations, someone trapped in this formation would be terrified beyond measure!

Whoosh! Whoosh!

After the mechanical beasts started moving, soon, several sharp arrows emitted from their mouths, attacking Xu Fan!

Xu Fan bluntly broke the glowing green arrow with one palm and sneered coldly.

"This guy wouldn't think, ten minutes later, I'd be crying and begging him for mercy, would he?"

...

After escaping through the secret passage inside the grand hall, Miyamoto Kuro immediately took the antidote.

This time, to lure Xu Fan into the trap, he didn't hesitate to use himself as bait!

Now with Xu Fan poisoned by Soul Losing Poison and trapped in the grand hall filled with mechanical beasts, his strategy had been fruitful.

Ten minutes wouldn't be enough to directly kill Xu Fan.

As for how badly injured Xu Fan would be when they opened the hall's doors later?

Miyamoto Kuro didn't care at all!

He only needed Xu Fan to have one breath left, that's enough!

By then, after witnessing the power of the Honda family, Miyamoto Kuro didn't believe Xu Fan would dare to be arrogant like before!

Stepping out of the secret passage, Miyamoto Kuro arrived outside the grand hall.

Now the big fish was caught in the net, he put two fingers under his lips and immediately blew a whistle!

At once, the clan members he had sent away quickly rushed to this place.

"Ryuichi, was it successful?"

This plan, being crucial for the Honda family's future, was intensely cared about by everyone present.

Excitedly, they began to inquire.

Seeing the excited expressions of everyone, Miyamoto Kuro smugly smiled and said, "I, Miyamoto Kuro, took matters into my own hands, can there be any mistake?"

"Hmph, this guy in the hall now, he's probably already terrified beyond measure!"

"I just hope when we go in later, he can still talk; otherwise, it would delay our time."

Murmuring to himself, a commotion arose from the side.

Honda Tsubasa, bound and gagged, was brought over.

Without warning, his own family turned against him, Honda Tsubasa didn't even have time to react.

Bound tightly and brought here, Honda Tsubasa immediately looked towards his father.

"Father, what do you mean by this?"

Now, with himself bound by his father and Xu Fan nowhere to be seen, how could Honda Tsubasa not understand?

This so-called reconciliation of his family starting from the beginning was probably just a lie!

Now, Xu Fan was likely trapped in the trap designed by his father and the others!

"You... you clearly promised me, saying you would reconcile with Xu Fan, how could you..."

Thinking about Miyamoto Kuro's suspicion before coming, Honda Tsubasa's heart filled with immense guilt.

In the end, it was still she who implicated Xu Fan!

The remorse within her made Honda Tsubasa struggle fiercely!

She didn't want to see Xu Fan fall into danger! She wanted to break free and rescue Xu Fan!

Smack!

However, before she could break free from the people restraining her, her father approached with a stern face, raised his hand, and mercilessly slapped her across the face!

"Father, you..."

Miyamoto Kuro's expression made Honda Tsubasa feel terrified.

At this moment, she only felt a vast distance between her and the man she called father.

"Hmph, do you still dare call me father?"

In Miyamoto Kuro's eyes, there was no trace of compassion, only hatred for betrayal.

"Did you forget you belong to the Honda family? How dare you betray the family! If you weren't still of some use, I'd kill you right now!"

Although Xu Fan had fallen into his hands, completely controlling him wasn't that easy.

Looking at his daughter, Miyamoto Kuro thought maybe she could come in handy later.

Glancing at his subordinates, he commanded, "Hold her tightly!"

His main focus should be on Xu Fan; Miyamoto Kuro didn't have the time to deal with Honda much.

Ordering his subordinates to restrain Honda Tsubasa, he looked around at the others.

"How long has it been?"

"Almost ten minutes."

Upon confirming the time Xu Fan had stayed in the hall, Miyamoto Kuro's mouth curled into a victorious smile.

Squinting his eyes, he seemed to see the scene where the Honda family, under his leadership, dominated Dongying's martial arts world...
