"No, Wakasei, you are wrong. Although you have successfully wiped out the stronghold of the Menggui Sect, their power is by no means as feeble as what you have seen." Tachibana Masamune's tone was exceptionally solemn, and his expression was dead serious as never before. "What we can see is merely floating on the surface. The truly terrifying fellow is still hiding behind the scenes of the Menggui Sect, and he is our true enemy. The Menggui Sect we are fighting against right now is nothing more than a pawn of his. The power he actually controls might be even vaster than the Shieki Eight Families, far beyond our imagination!"
"The true enemy?" Minamoto Wakasei frowned. "You mean... the Dragon King and Wang Jiang?"
"Yes, it is Wang Jiang," Tachibana Masamune nodded. "Wang Jiang, the number one figure of the Menggui Sect. He might be an old acquaintance of mine. Twenty years ago, I should have killed him, but it is very likely that he survived. This was my lapse in judgment; I failed to finish him off and allowed such a dangerous character to trail me all the way to Japan."
