At this moment, everyone present cast curious glances, eagerly questioning Chen Fan.
"How do we deal with them?"
"Listen to me, and we'll do this..." Chen Fan smiled mysteriously and then spoke.
...
Soon, Kashima Reito and others, who had deliberately inflicted minor injuries on themselves and made themselves look disheveled, hurriedly left Kiyomizu-dera.
Then, they deliberately approached the vicinity of Divine Official Manjo and his group, but deliberately did not seek them out.
Instead, they just shouted loudly, circling them deliberately and crying out, "Divine Official Manjo, disaster is imminent!"
Even Divine Official Manjo, as astute as he was, found it strange.
In less than half a minute, Divine Official Manjo's mind raced, considering countless possibilities.
Then, he decisively waved to the nearby Divine Official Kujo and said, "Go, go and bring them here."
Upon hearing Divine Official Manjo's words, Divine Official Kujo shook his head repeatedly, saying with a fearful expression, "I... I won't go. Who knows if they are ghosts or men..."
"Baka! You idiot! Of course they are men! Where are there ghosts in this world!" Divine Official Manjo couldn't stand his stupidity any longer and cursed loudly in anger.
And as soon as he spoke, Kashima Reito and the others heard him.
Kashima Reito and the others had been deliberately circling and acting.
Now, they could finally stop circling and focus their efforts on acting.
Kashima Reito and the others crossed the pile of weeds where Divine Official Manjo and his group were hiding and saw the heavy weaponry that had almost killed them.
Naturally, they bore a great deal of resentment.
But for the sake of the bigger picture, they could not show their hatred.
With a flicker of their eyes, they briefly assessed the situation.
They did not see the figure of Mitsui Kenji.
Therefore, Kashima Reito and the others felt relieved, knowing that Chen Fan's guess was correct and Mitsui Kenji had indeed left.
And for Kashima Reito and his group, this meant they now had at least a fifty percent chance of success.
"So, the two Divine Officials are here. It's bad, a major disaster is imminent!" Thus, Kashima Reito approached Divine Official Manjo without revealing any changes and spoke.
"Why... are you back?" Seeing that he had been discovered, Divine Official Manjo could no longer hide and had to step out from his hiding place, feigning composure, and asked Kashima Reito, "Don't rush, speak slowly. What disaster is imminent?"
Kashima Reito already knew everything.
Furthermore, before coming here, Chen Fan had also taught them a foolproof plan.
Therefore, at this moment, Kashima Reito deliberately showed no suspicion of his surroundings, but "honestly" reported the situation.
"Reporting to Divine Official Manjo, this is what happened..."
However, when it came to the crucial point, Kashima Reito, following Chen Fan's instructions, managed to fool Divine Official Manjo.
After Kashima Reito finished explaining everything, Divine Official Manjo did not detect anything amiss.
"...Now, that provocateur and President Mitsui have both suffered heavy losses, both are at the end of their strength, so President Mitsui has sent us to seek help."
Soon, Kashima Reito, with an anxious demeanor, finished speaking.
Upon hearing his words, Divine Official Manjo's brows furrowed deeply.
He shook his head at Kashima Reito, his tone filled with disbelief, and said.
"Impossible, how could President Mitsui be so weak?"
At this moment, Divine Official Manjo's thoughts and judgment had already been completely influenced by what Kashima Reito had just said.
However, Divine Official Manjo himself had not yet realized it.
But, before coming here, Kashima Reito and his group had not only been prepared to die!
They had also learned the method of success from Chen Fan!
Seeing Divine Official Manjo's current state, Kashima Reito knew that this old fellow was now in a state of skepticism.
At this moment, if he wanted to lure him into the trap, he needed to add more fuel to the fire!
Fortunately, at this very moment, Chen Fan, on the small mountain, had anticipated the situation and devised a plan.
"Divine Official Manjo, we saw with our own eyes that President Mitsui even took out a compass to fight..." Thus, Kashima Reito, imitating Chen Fan's methods, directly fell to his knees before Divine Official Manjo with a thud.
He spoke to Divine Official Manjo in a voice that conveyed fear and panic.
One had to admit that Kashima Reito's acting was superb.
As soon as he struck this pose, Divine Official Manjo, who was still in a state of skepticism, immediately felt a jolt in his heart. A smile appeared on his face, and his tone became very excited. He immediately interrupted Kashima Reito and hastily asked.
"What did you say? What compass?"
As soon as he saw Divine Official Manjo's anxious demeanor, Kashima Reito couldn't help but admire Chen Fan even more!
Look at that!
He had guessed everything even without coming here.
Mastermind! Truly amazing!
Although Kashima Reito was very excited internally, he could not show it on the surface.
Therefore, upon hearing Divine Official Manjo's urgent question, he deliberately stammered and said.
"I... I don't know either, but that provocateur was very surprised, saying something about a Dragon-patterned Compass..."
Seeing that Kashima Reito did not seem to be lying, Divine Official Manjo could no longer contain himself.
Therefore, before Kashima Reito could finish speaking, Divine Official Manjo waved his hand and said excitedly.
"Let's go! We depart immediately, quickly escort me to aid President Mitsui!"
Kashima Reito's words immediately made Divine Official Manjo excited.
He hastily led Kashima Reito and his group and began to rush towards Kiyomizu-dera!
For the extremely excited Divine Official Manjo at this moment, his heart had no room to consider whether this news was true or false!
Because he had waited for this moment for too long!
However, when Divine Official Manjo truly arrived at Kiyomizu-dera, he was completely taken aback!
Because, at this moment, only Chen Fan was in Kiyomizu-dera, with no sign of anyone else.
Moreover, as soon as Divine Official Manjo stepped through the gate of Kiyomizu-dera, Kashima Reito and the others behind him let out a sinister laugh and, with a bang, slammed the gate of Kiyomizu-dera shut!
At this moment, Divine Official Manjo's brows furrowed deeply!
