Takeda Takashi's breathing quickened, his blood flow accelerated, his brain was buzzing, and his shoulders were heavy, as if he was bearing a huge burden.

What's going on?

With this question in mind, Takeda Takashi reluctantly turned his head and looked at Okita Shinji sitting next to him.

However, Okita Shinji's appearance at this moment shocked him.

I saw that the other party's teeth were clenched, his face was red, obvious veins appeared on his forehead, and his body was shaking constantly, as if he was desperately resisting something.

Takeda Takashi looked at Asai Shizune and Asai Satsuki nearby.

To his deep surprise, the two women from the Asai family were safe and didn't look strange in any way.

At this moment, the sound of heavy breathing reached Takeda Takashi's ears.

The breathing sounds come from top swordsmen such as Chiba Ryuui, Momoi Heimasa, and Sato Ryuichi.

Their performance is exactly the same as Okita Shinji's.

The same gritted teeth, the same face flushed, the same resistance to some mysterious force.

In just two or three seconds, fine beads of sweat appeared on their foreheads.

Takeda Takashi finally found a clue.

It seems that the stronger one is, the more obvious the suppression will be.

It is self-evident who the suppression comes from.

Although he had not seen Lin Zhong yet, Takeda Takashi felt strong awe in his heart.

"Crash!"

Suddenly, the sound of chaotic and dense footsteps sounded again outside.

Immediately afterwards, the panic subsided like a tide.

A scene appeared in Takeda Takashi's mind.

The crowds crowded in the aisle hurriedly retreated to both sides to make way for someone to lead to Qingya Hall.

Here he comes.

Thinking about this, Takeda stood up from his seat subconsciously, and with some indescribable complex mood, turned his head and looked at the door.

The same is true for Asai Satsuki, Okita Shinji, Chiba Ryui, Momoi Heimasa and others, their movements are surprisingly consistent.

Not long after, a slender and tall figure came into everyone's sight.

He was wearing loose black training clothes, his face was very young and his appearance was ordinary, but his eyes were calm and deep, like an abyss, making it impossible to look directly at him.

There was no grand pomp, no impressive momentum, Lin Zhong just walked into Qingya Hall alone.

He no longer needs to express his existence in that way.

Facing the gazes of everyone around him, Lin Zhong took a step forward calmly.

This step is like shrinking into an inch, spanning a distance of more than 20 meters in an instant.

One moment he was at the entrance of the hall, and the next moment he was standing next to the main seat.

The whole process flowed smoothly, without any deliberateness at all.

Even Okita Shinji and Chiba Ryujing, who have the strongest eyesight, could not see clearly how Lin Zhong did it.

Okita Shinji blinked hard and tried his best to control his expression to avoid losing his composure due to too much shock.

Seeing once is better than hearing a hundred times.

Seeing Lin Zhong with his own eyes today, he finally understood that those rumors from across the ocean were not groundless.

Kendo masters such as Chiba Ryūjing and Momoi Heimasa who had witnessed Lin Zhong's powerful display were much calmer and even took it for granted.

Compared with the power Lin Zhong showed in Akasaka Palace, what happened just now can only be regarded as a small scene.

Lin Zhong slowly looked around.

Wherever he looked, everyone bowed their heads.

In a solemn and silent atmosphere, Uesugi Hidemitsu quietly entered the hall with several retainers, trying to walk as lightly as possible to avoid attracting anyone's attention.

"Everyone, please take a seat."

Lin Zhong sat down cross-legged, then pressed down with his right hand, and let out a steady and powerful voice.

Everyone immediately acted as he was told.

After the previous show of force, they no longer had the confidence to defy Lin Zhong's will.

Of course, he didn't show any favor to Lin Zhong.

After all, Lin Zhong's intentions are unknown, and he is in the position of his respective family. If he wants to protect himself wisely, he must act cautiously.

Moreover, they were not familiar with Lin Zhong, so even if they wanted to get close to each other and establish friendship, they didn't know how to speak.

Lin Zhong took in everyone's expressions and decided not to go around in circles with them.

"You must already know my identity, so I won't introduce myself."

Lin Zhong said in Fusang dialect: "I invite you here today to clarify some misunderstandings with you."

Every word that came out of Lin Zhong's mouth seemed to have magical power, making everyone unable to help but concentrate and listen.

"First of all, the Yanhuang warrior who broke into Akasaka Palace was indeed me, but my goal from beginning to end was only the Secret Intelligence Bureau."

Lin Zhong got straight to the point: "The Secret Intelligence Bureau colluded with the Fuso military and sent troops to besiege me. On the premise of protecting myself, I tried to reduce unnecessary killings."

"Secondly, I did not kill the commander of that army. When I arrived at the temporary headquarters, they were already dead. The Secret Service hopes to use this despicable method to make you stand against me."

"In the end, everything that the Secret Service is encountering now is entirely their own fault. I am just treating them the same way as others."

"You can investigate on your own as to the truth. I did it, and I won't deny it. I didn't do it, and I don't have to admit it."

Having said this, Lin Zhong paused for a moment, giving everyone time to digest.

Takeda's face was as dark as water, and his thoughts were spinning.

Lin Zhong's rhetoric is completely opposite to that of the Secret Intelligence Service.

Who is lying?

According to the past misdeeds of the Secret Service, it seems that the latter is more likely to lie.

"I heard that the Secret Intelligence Service has been forcing you to deal with me. For the sake of the survival of the major Fuso families, I hope you can remain neutral in the future."

Lin Zhong's dark and deep eyes gradually turned into pale gold, a vast and noble aura emanated from his body, and his voice gradually increased: "You just need to remain neutral, don't interfere, don't take sides, don't interfere, and wait for me and the Secret Intelligence Bureau

Decide the winner."

"If you can't even do this, then you are my enemies."

"Whether you are an enemy or a friend, it all depends on your thoughts. Don't say that you didn't predict what you said!"

“Don’t say you didn’t predict what you said.”

"Unpredictable"

"Not prepared"

Lin Zhong's voice was like a bell, penetrating the barriers of walls and roofs and spreading in all directions.

The crowd in the aisle outside heard it.

The guards around Qingya Hall heard it.

The Iga people lurking in the dark heard it.

Bi Luo, who was doing some repairs behind closed doors, heard it.

Everyone within a one kilometer radius clearly heard Lin Zhong's announcement.

Near the Uesugi family mansion.

In a certain coffee shop.

On the seat near the floor-to-ceiling window, a man with a cold temperament was watching the door of the Uesugi house. His expression suddenly changed, he got up and left in a hurry.

There are many people who have the same reaction as this man.

Some of those people are selling drinks, some are sweeping the streets, some are handing out flyers, and some are dating

When Lin Zhong's voice came, they immediately dropped what they were doing and dispersed in an instant.
