Hearing this, Takeda Kyoko was at a loss whether to cry or laugh. She truly wanted to become the first female Clan Leader in the history of the Takeda Family, but certainly not in this manner. Unfortunately, it was too late to say anything now; her father's attitude suggested that she had already anticipated today's outcome.
Jiang Chen killed with the ease of stepping on an ant, and her father insisted on opposing him—wasn’t that courting death?
“Mr. Jiang, may I ask you something?” Takeda Kyoko suddenly spoke up, looking at Jiang Chen with a serious expression.
“Go ahead,” Jiang Chen replied casually. Since Takeda Kyoko recognized the situation, he might as well share some insights with her.
“Mr. Jiang, does God truly exist in this world?” Takeda Kyoko asked. Although she had witnessed various martial artists' extraordinary abilities before, she could accept those feats. As for the legendary deities, she had fantasized about them but had never seen one. Now that she stood before Jiang Chen, she sought clarity.
“Of course they exist. Immortals and demons exist; this world is far more exciting than you can imagine,” Jiang Chen answered.
“Then, are you a god?” Takeda Kyoko gazed intently at Jiang Chen and asked again.
Beside her, Tengye Kikuko looked at Jiang Chen with eager anticipation, waiting for his response.
“Not yet,” Jiang Chen smiled, not wanting to frighten the two women.
“Not yet? Then who on Earth can be considered one?” Takeda Kyoko asked in surprise, believing that someone with Jiang Chen's abilities was surely god-like.
“There hasn’t been a god on Earth for a long time, but there will be in the future—many of them,” Jiang Chen said with a faint smile, his words carrying deeper meaning.
Takeda Kyoko stared at Jiang Chen in shock, as if a new world had opened up in her mind. Tengye Kikuko was equally stunned, speechless after experiencing the most thrilling day of her life—more incredible than any movie plot.
If someone else had told Tengye Kikuko that there were gods in this world, she would have dismissed it as a joke or scoffed at it. But now, she believed Jiang Chen's words.
Suddenly, Tengye Kikuko understood why Yue Hui had called her that day and spoken of Jiang Chen with such reverence. At the time, Tengye Kikuko had found it strange; now it all made sense.
“Mr. Jiang, there’s something I need to tell you. The Vengeful Spirit you killed earlier was a servant of the Eastern Deity. I used to doubt the existence of Eastern Deities and thought they were just legends; now it seems they are real!” Takeda Kyoko said.
As a member of the Takeda Family, she knew quite a bit about the secrets of the Island Nation. She shared what she knew about the legend of the Eastern Deity with Jiang Chen. The Island Nation had many ghost stories; most people believed in them because many bizarre events could not be explained scientifically and thus were attributed to supernatural causes.
The tale of the Eastern Deity’s battle against Huaxia Martial Arts over a century ago was indeed a well-kept secret known by few. However, the Takeda Family was aware of this rumor, and Takeda Kyoko was simply relaying what she knew to Jiang Chen.
At this moment, she not only sought revenge against Jiang Chen but also aimed to win his favor. Takeda Kyoko was undoubtedly an extraordinary woman; at least she was much more perceptive than her father.
In any time and place, people need to recognize circumstances; only by doing so can they survive longer.
