Happy, Song Xiaozhu was truly happy from the bottom of his heart.

He was pondering whether his ancestors' graves had exuded fortunate vapors, given his encounter with someone as distinguished as Xu Fan.

Such a great opportunity, he absolutely had to seize tightly!

Encouraging himself internally, Song Xiaozhu immediately inquired about the arrangements.

This was the first task Xu Fan had entrusted to him, and he had to make sure it was done perfectly no matter what!

Indeed, everyone seemed to share the same thought with him. Song Xiaozhu orchestrated the situation smoothly, and within half an hour, everyone was ready!

Ichiban Street was now heavily ambushed!

If the Dongying martial arts family dared to bring people in, they had to be prepared to leave in tears!

After triple-checking with no errors, Song Xiaozhu rushed over to Xu Fan.

"Master, Seven Kills Tower is ready!"

Having understood Xu Fan's identity by now, Song Xiaozhu showed no hesitation, kneeling on one knee, signaling his allegiance to Xu Fan.

His respectful attitude didn't surprise Xu Fan in the least, but it caused a tempest in the heart of Honda Tsubasa, who was accompanying him.

Just moments ago, Xu Fan used decisive methods to intimidate the crowd, leaving Honda Tsubasa still in a state of shock.

Seeing Seven Kills Tower submit to Xu Fan, she understood why Xu Fan remained so calm throughout the journey.

Sitting aside, Honda Tsubasa secretly observed Xu Fan, thinking that this series of arrangements had likely been planned long before they arrived.

Thinking about this, Honda Tsubasa couldn't help but smile wryly.

She realized her worries were unfounded, as there was really nothing to be concerned about on this trip...

"Okay, since we're all prepared, let's go downstairs."

"Since they've been following me all the way, I should at least greet them properly."

At that moment, Xu Fan stretched lazily and stood up.

Song Xiaozhu understood immediately and led the way.

Xu Fan, accompanied by Honda Tsubasa, followed him and descended from the second floor.

Arriving at the lobby on the first floor, guided by Song Xiaozhu, Xu Fan and Honda Tsubasa sat down at the central spot in the hall.

After instructing the servants to prepare drinks and dishes, Song Xiaozhu approached Xu Fan.

"Master, you two can rest here first, I'll take my leave."

"Rest assured, nothing will go wrong when the time comes."

Now that Seven Kills Tower personnel were prepared, Song Xiaozhu had to step back and oversee the situation.

Approaching Xu Fan, he explained the situation.

"Alright, you may go then."

"When the time comes, just follow my lead."

Xu Fan nodded in agreement and waved him away.

With the impending battle, the hall contained no other guests, only Xu Fan's table.

Honda Tsubasa, accompanying Xu Fan, couldn't sit still.

Regarding Xu Fan's cunning strategy to drive wolves, Honda Tsubasa was rendered speechless.

Generally, people wouldn't think of such a tactic easily.

However...

Honda Tsubasa looked at Xu Fan, who was patiently waiting, furrowed her brow, and asked: "Xu Fan, how did you know they would come looking for us?"

Previously, it was her who led the way out of the hotel.

Throughout, no one discovered traces of them both.

Logically speaking, the Dongying martial arts families shouldn't have found them.

"If you were them, would you let a thorn in your eye wander freely on your turf?"

Seeing Honda Tsubasa's puzzled expression, Xu Fan sipped some sake and smiled as he explained.

"This is Tokyo, their territory. Do you think it would take long to track us down?"

"This..."

Honda Tsubasa was speechless.

She understood the depth of influence the martial arts families had in Dongying better than anyone.

Indeed, Xu Fan wasn't wrong in his deduction.

Even if Xu Fan stayed one more night in Tokyo, it was an unsightly prospect for them.

Though they had come up empty-handed at the hotel, they would surely conduct a thorough search across Tokyo!

As long as Xu Fan remained in Tokyo, they would definitely track him down!

It's important to note, they had consolidated the entire Dongying martial arts world's strength!

Bzzzzz...

As the two conversed, Xu Fan's phone vibrated.

It was a message from Song Xiaozhu.

Explaining that a large group of people had now entered Ichiban Street's field of view.

He was consulting whether to act immediately.

"Not yet."

Xu Fan responded with three words before tossing the phone to Honda Tsubasa.

"See, speak of the devil, and he shall appear."

"A large group? I'm afraid this hall won't have enough seats..."

"This..."

Honda Tsubasa held the phone, seeing the message from Song Xiaozhu, and felt a shiver down her spine.

She harbored no doubts about the strength of Seven Kills Tower.

Now that they were lying in wait, infiltrating all corners of Ichiban Street, even masters from Dongying martial arts families would face setbacks.

This battle was destined to be a severe hit for Dongying martial arts world.

However...

Honda Tsubasa looked at Xu Fan beside her, somewhat puzzled.

Since they had already allied with Seven Kills Tower, why did Xu Fan still want to meet them?

It's important to know, around them were only the two of them. Facing the formidable group from the martial arts world could have unpredictable outcomes.

"Xu Fan, perhaps it would be wiser for us to hide..."

By now, Honda Tsubasa had no doubts about Xu Fan's strength.

But out of caution, she suggested the idea to Xu Fan.

Her earnest reminder amused Xu Fan.

Looking at Honda Tsubasa, he said: "Little Wing, you seem to have changed quite a bit since our first meeting."

"You're not fit to be an assassin anymore."

"I..."

Her words stuck in Honda Tsubasa's throat at his tease.

She knew all too well the indecisive nature she had developed...

All these changes... didn't she change because of him...

"Okay, I'm just teasing you."

Xu Fan looked at Honda Tsubasa and explained: "It's not that I want to sit here and play the empty city strategy with them."

It's just that this matter requires closure.

Even if Seven Kills Tower attacked and finished those who came afar, it wouldn't solve the real issue.

Killing them would only intensify the conflict.

Consequently, waves upon waves of people would continue to bother him.

While not worried, the constant conflict disrupted his plans.

If left unchecked, it would indeed fulfill their wishes, ruining his month with exhaustive confrontations!

"I wait here just for negotiation."

Of course, whether force suppression or peaceful resolution would depend on their attitude.
