A few hours after dawn, Shandao was already sitting in a cafe in Borno town, holding a copy of today's morning newspaper in his hand, and on the table in front of him was a cup of steaming aromatic coffee.

He seemed to be looking down at the news in the newspaper, but the crumpled corner of the newspaper in his hand showed that his heart was in turmoil at the moment.

The large-scale newspaper blocked Shandao's face, and a dangerous light like that of a ferocious beast flashed under the round-frame glasses on his nose.

Five of the other group of people he sent into the mountains to carry out the mission also lost contact last night. Except for two people who did not go deep into the mountains and sent back some irrelevant news, the other people who went to explore important places did not give him any feedback.

For Shandao, no news is equivalent to bad news.

He didn't know that even the two people who sent him the message were deliberately let go by Tianlin at the behest of the Chosen System.

It is unwise to let your opponent know your true strength too early, no matter who the opponent is.

A few minutes later, he put down the newspaper in his hand, took two sips of the coffee in front of him with an expressionless face, skillfully called the clerk to pay the bill, ignored the newspaper aside, stood up and walked to the street where more pedestrians had begun to appear.

There are many Asian faces in the towns of Domiti and Borno recently, and the appearance of Shandao has not attracted the attention of local residents.

——But it attracted the attention of Mo Cen, who lived with Mu Jinhe in Borno.

She stood on the second floor of the villa, quickly took out her mobile phone to take a photo of the island, and uploaded it to Xu Yiyu on Yixin.

Mu Jinhe did not notice Mo Cen's actions. She was now financially free and was sleeping soundly on her soft big bed. She was even mumbling in her sleep.

Shandao didn't know that his whereabouts had been leaked to Xu Yiyu by the leader of the M organization. He just walked in a certain direction with a purpose. Although his eyes seemed to be wandering around the shops on both sides of the street, he actually didn't see anything.

What he had to do now was to hurry to another secret base that only he knew about and secretly enter the Al Mountains through the tunnel.

If he continues to wait outside the mountain, the vague connection between him and Muramasa will soon disappear. If he wants to find Muramasa again by then, he may not be able to do it even if he sacrifices ten men like Hinata.

Fifteen minutes later, Shandao walked into a grocery store on the edge of the town. He didn't buy anything and didn't look at anything. He just went down to the basement through the secret symbols marked in the store and walked into a low room with a little dust and damp smell.

"Sir, the two of us did not find anyone approaching the sentry post. The force that caused you trouble did not seem to enter the mountain from the direction we are in."

In the basement, which was illuminated only by a wall lamp, two men in black who looked like ninjas were kneeling. Hidden on their belts were several simple pocket shurikens and several dark brown balls the size of pills.

If Xu Yiyu saw them dressed like this, he would most likely think that they had "traveled" from a movie.

They reported the situation in detail to the unsuspecting Shandao, but Shandao did not seem to pay attention to them. Instead, he took down a set of ninja clothes hanging on the wall and started to change clothes in front of them without any hesitation.

The two kneeling ninjas immediately lowered their heads respectfully and did not dare to look at Shandao who was changing clothes in front of them.

After Shandao took off his shirt, the tattoo on his back glowed slightly under the dim light of the wall lamp, revealing a somewhat horrifying pattern.

——A snake-like monster with several heads stood up with its head ferocious in its eyes and its bright red tongue spitting out. Its huge body coiled in several circles, and no one knew where the end of its body was.

The monster was tattooed vividly on Shandao's back, as if it would burst out of his back at any moment and devour everyone who dared to look at him with their humble body.

But the next moment, Shandao put on his clothes, and the eight-headed snake monster was covered under the thin layer of cloth, as if it had never appeared in this space.

The two ninjas kneeling on the ground only felt a strong evil aura for a short while before the basement returned to its previous state.

"Go back and keep an eye on it. Report any news as soon as possible. Don't miss any movement."

Before covering his head, Shandao gave a final instruction to the two people kneeling on the ground, then opened a secret door whose handle was almost invisible unless you looked carefully, and walked out along the passage in front of him.

The secret door slowly closed in the darkness, but the two people kneeling on the ground did not dare to stand up immediately. Instead, they looked at each other quietly for a few seconds as if waiting for something. After confirming that nothing was coming, they cautiously breathed a sigh of relief and stood up.

After they walked out of the basement from a secret door in another direction, the wall lamp that had just illuminated this space gradually went out, until the last ray of light in this space was extinguished.

Walking in the secret passage, Shandao skillfully took out a samurai sword from somewhere on the wall and put it on his waist as he walked forward.

After raising his hand to tighten the headscarf covering his face, Shandao had almost reached the end of the passage.

At the end of the passage is an ordinary-style door. Through the gaps in the wooden door, a few faint rays of light penetrate into the passage, illuminating a small open space in front of the island.

When pushing open the door, Shandao's eyes suddenly became extremely sharp, as if he had suddenly switched to hunting mode. The pair of eyes that were revealed scanned the scene in front of him like a laser.

The wooden door slowly closed behind Shandao without making any sound.

The birds that were originally nesting in this clearing in the forest seemed to be disturbed by him, and flapped their wings and flew away to hide among the dense branches and leaves of the trees.

Shandao closed his eyes and stood still, releasing all his senses and slowly moving the joints and muscles of his whole body.

But after a few seconds, Shandao, who was already of a certain age, seemed to have adjusted his state. He suddenly opened his eyes and shot forward like an arrow.

Before the dense forest could be disturbed, Shandao's figure rushed out of the forest.

Shandao sniffed the fresh air in the Al Mountains, and a bloodthirsty pleasure suddenly emanated from his eyes.

Although the thugs and ninjas under his command were of little use, facing an enemy that could rarely cause him trouble, it was worth it for him to take action personally after a long absence.

At present, Shandao still doesn’t know the strength of the opponent, nor does he know which force is protecting Muramasa.

——But what do these unknowns matter to him?

After all, no one had ever survived three moves of his sword, and no one had ever been able to stand in his way.

Shandao, dressed in a black ninja suit, moved around the mountains with familiarity. He seemed to have determined the direction he was going, and there was not even a hint of hesitation in his eyes.

Tianlin, who was walking in the mountains, stopped as if he sensed something and turned his head to look in a certain direction.

William, who was personally escorting Muramasa out of the Ar Mountains, also stopped and looked at the birds that were startled by something outside the hilltops. His intuition reminded him that something extremely dangerous seemed to have entered the mountains.

He did not dare to delay and quickened his pace, causing the men behind him who were carrying Muramasa to speed up as well.

All of William's senses were warning him to leave this dangerous area as soon as possible and avoid the dangerous man who was heading towards Muramasa.

Several of his men thought that the young master was just acting on a whim, but they still cooperated with his steps.

Jiu, who was walking at the front of the treasure hunting team, suddenly stopped and looked at a place that was not exposed to the sun. The next moment he raised his hand to signal all the team members behind him to stop.

Xu Yiyu walked beside Jiu all the time, and also cast his gaze into the darkness where something seemed to be lurking.

After a long time, a vague outline broke away from the darkness and appeared in the eyes of Jiu and Xu Yiyu.

Tianlin also walked to Xu Yiyu's side and blocked the host with half of his body.

When the silhouette raised its head, Xu Yiyu's pupils shrank uncontrollably for a moment, and it took a long time before they returned to normal.

Finally, she inevitably faced this man.
