This scene really caught the audience off guard. Did Juggernaut Isshin die of illness?

It seems unlikely. Although Emma has always said that it is a miracle Lord Isshin can survive, in the Shura ending, Isshin is quite capable of fighting—no, it's not just that he can fight; his battle strength is like fire, performing Dimension Slash or something alike.

To be able to swing the sword like this, it seems that there should be some time left before death from illness.

"Master Isshin... What's going on?" the Wolf asked.

"Master Isshin... he was attacked by Master Genichiro... and killed," Emma provided a rather shocking answer.

"What?" The Wolf obviously did not expect such an answer, and even he, who had always been stern, was moved.

"Damn, is Genichiro crazy?"

"He always seems to be crazy, but it's strange; now that he's gone mad, why would he kill his grandfather?"

"Yeah, what's going on here?"

The audience was also confused and couldn't think of a reason why Genichiro killed Isshin!

Could it be that this guy also betrayed the Inner Palace? No, that's impossible; this guy is a lunatic who is desperate for Ashina. Everyone in the world may betray, but he would be the last to do so.

"Master Genichiro said that he had to let Master Isshin come back with a new attitude," Emma continued. "I don't know what he means; I just think he should be... completely crazy."

"What about the royal son..." the Wolf asked again.

"Because I realized that the Ashina was about to fall, I asked Kuro to go to the secret passage outside the city in advance. She should be waiting for you in the reed field," Emma said. "You need to hurry."

"Understood." The Wolf replied. "Then you... take care."

The Wolf's line not only surprised the audience a little, but the Wolf, who has always been a straight man, actually showed concern for Emma.

Emma nodded slightly: "Well, please be careful..."

"Okay, audience, let's not worry about what Genichiro wants to do; let's head to the secret passage outside the city first!" Jason Wu also said.

Following Emma's prompt, Jason Wu left the Tianshou Pavilion and headed to the Waterbirth City in Ashina from the west side of Ashina City.

And that place is where the game begins.

Avoiding the area where the soldiers were fighting, Jason Wu quickly arrived in this urban area.

At this time, the army of the inner government had not yet invaded this place.

It was still occupied by the army of Ashina.

They were ready to fight, and they did not rush into the city to engage with the soldiers of the inner government.

They simply stayed there, and there was even a general among them on guard.

This small army seemed to be waiting for something.

Jason Wu quietly approached and happened to hear the general communicate with his subordinates.

"Have all the surrounding inner government soldiers been eliminated?"

"It's all settled."

"Well, when Genichiro-sama or Isshin-sama returns, we can blow the horn of the counterattack!!!"

Everyone who listened to this conversation, including Jason Wu, was puzzled. Obviously, the remaining Ashina army still wanted to fight with the soldiers of the inner government. Why did this group of soldiers still expect to lead them with one heart?

In the midst of doubts, Jason Wu heard the general say: "From now on, we will revive Ashina together with Dragon's Heritage!"

What the hell?

Hearing this, Jason Wu and the audience subconsciously became nervous.

The royal son is in danger!!!

Obviously, the appearance of this group of Ashina soldiers here is not accidental. They should have gone to catch the escaped Miko under the leadership of Genichiro.

Genichiro is still alive!

"It's not right; maybe the royal son has already fallen into their hands, and now I have to go to the reed field to see the situation!!!"

It's just that there is no place to hide around here, so he couldn't sneak.

No way, Jason Wu gritted his teeth and rushed over.

After another battle with elite monsters, Jason Wu finally reached the front of the secret passage. After passing through the secret passage, the beautiful reed field, like an oil painting, appeared in front of Jason Wu again.

And in the reed field, two figures, one big and one small, stood opposite each other; it was Genichiro and Kuro.

Before Jason Wu stepped forward, he saw Genichiro suddenly raise his knife and slash Kuro's abdomen with one stroke.

Poof! Blood splattered!!!

Kuro was in pain and staggered backward.

"Damn, this Genichiro actually slashed my second-dimensional wife!!!"

"Genichiro, this bastard, doesn't even let the little girl go!"

"Wait a minute, isn't Kuro invulnerable? Why is she bleeding?!"

Jason Wu ran over quickly, and the Wolf immediately asked with concern, "Are you alright?"

"Wolf, you're here." Seeing Jason Wu's appearance, Kuro's eyes flashed with surprise, and then she became solemn: "I'm not dead; the wound will heal quickly, but why would I...?"

"Why do you bleed?" Genichiro said coldly, lowering his head to stare at the black knife in his hand that had been stained with Kuro's blood: "Because what I have in my hand is another Immortal Slash."

"During this time, I went through a lot of hardships just for it."

"I also want to be the Fish King and live forever, but the dragon has set rules that there can only be one Fish King alive in this world. So only by poisoning it first can I become the next generation Fish King."

"What's more, if you enter the lake, the Fish King will definitely attack you, and I will poison it for you, which can be regarded as clearing your obstacles. Why not do it?"

"Is that so..." Jason Wu thought for a moment but still accepted the poison. Anyway, it was not a loss to accept the things.

"Then I am here waiting for the good news. If your Excellency succeeds, please let me know, hehe." The person in the jar smiled strangely.

After saying goodbye to the person in the jar, Jason Wu came to the lake again.

"Alright, audience, let's go to the lake to see if we can find the cave mentioned by the person in the jar."

Speaking of which, Jason Wu plunged into the lake with a savage dive. The lake is still quite wide, and there is about a space for a football stadium.

After searching for a while, Jason Wu really found a cave and swam to it quickly. After all, the oxygen in the water is limited, and time cannot be wasted. But at this moment, he suddenly saw a shadow in the distance that suddenly enlarged—it was the giant Fish King!

After the Fish King found Jason Wu, it rushed toward him immediately, the huge fish head grinned like a human, revealing rows of human teeth!

"Damn, look at this thing laughing, and its teeth are like human teeth!!!"

"Now I finally believe that he has transformed!"

"Damn, it's so weird for a carp to have human teeth!"

"Wow, I'm panicking; I think someone has bold ideas now?!"

The audience exclaimed. This strange and twisted scene drove people mad, and Jason Wu was also shocked, his scalp numb: "Damn, what kind of nightmare is this!"

In the water, he can't stretch his limbs at all and can't do the cool fighting moves like on land; he can only turn around and swim to the shore!

This moment is a bit like a picture of an innocent person meeting the death god Leviathan for the first time!

The Carp King was chasing after him, and Jason Wu even heard human voices coming from behind him: "Eat, eat, food..."

At the critical moment, Jason Wu finally swam to the shore and couldn't wait to get ashore. He hooked a hook directly to the railing on the shore, and the whole person flew up, finally escaping the pursuit of the Carp King!

"Damn, thankfully I escaped! This Carp King looks so damn scary!"

"I even feel that this thing is more terrifying than the Leviathan!"

"Yeah, the main thing is that the appearance of this thing looks too human, too distorted..."

This is somewhat of an uncanny valley effect!

The so-called uncanny valley effect means that when the similarity between other objects and humans reaches a certain level, humans' response to them will become extremely negative and disgusting.

For example, being chased by a huge monster with an animal head and a human head—the sense of terror brought by the two is not at the same level.

However, before Jason Wu could feel fortunate that he had escaped from the tiger's mouth of the Carp King, when he stood firm and looked around, he jumped directly to the center of the group of silt and beautiful warriors.

For a moment, the soldiers of Yujiamei were probably a little stunned, but they didn't expect a delivery.

The next moment, a massacre unfolded.

Soon, Jason Wu was resurrected again at the nearby ghost and Buddha.

"Looking at what the person in the jar said, there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. We can't go to the cave at all when the Fish King is in the lake. We can only think of a way to poison him first, but how to poison him..." Jason Wu thought about it.

"The old lady said before that her father was in charge of feeding the Fish King; should we go to her father?" the audience guessed.

"Well, it should be..."

Jason Wu nodded, and he began to look for it.

Sure enough, he passed the group of silt and Yujiamei soldiers in the center, and on another viewing platform in the distance, he saw a lonely old man.

This old man was tall, with white hair all over his body.

Like the nobles in the palace before, he gradually detached from human appearance, looking more like a fish.
