"I want to take the Kunlun Divine Mirror. There's no need to use you as a hostage. Besides, even if I did, your family would probably be reluctant to part with the Kunlun Divine Mirror in exchange. It's fine; you can leave now. In a few days, I will go to your family to retrieve the Kunlun Divine Mirror," Jiang Chen said with a smile.
What Jiang Chen valued was Takeda Kyoko's attitude. With her agreeing to hand over the Kunlun Divine Mirror, at least there would be less resistance. Moreover, having witnessed his power, she would likely persuade her family to give up their opposition. After all, no one from the Takeda Family could surpass him.
As for Takeda Kyoko's life, in Jiang Chen's eyes, it held little value; whether he killed her or not was inconsequential.
"Are you really just going to let me go?" Takeda Kyoko asked, somewhat astonished.
Jiang Chen nodded.
Takeda Kyoko found it hard to believe, but until she boarded the helicopter and flew away, Jiang Chen made no move against her. Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief.
The Kunlun Divine Mirror was the treasure of the Takeda Family. In her thirty years of life, Takeda Kyoko had only seen it once as a child. It was about the same size as an ancient bronze mirror, but its surface resembled that of a lake; ripples appeared when disturbed. If one stared into its surface, they would not see their reflection but instead be drawn in, as if gazing through time and space at a lake from above, where fairies danced gracefully upon its surface—a sight of profound mystery.
The lake within the Kunlun Divine Mirror was said to be Yao Pool from Huaxia Nation, and those fairies were the Yao Pool fairies.
Though she had temporarily escaped danger, Takeda Kyoko knew that Jiang Chen would definitely come looking for her. His strength was terrifying; he had killed Ishii Ansei and Yamato Zawafu without breaking a sweat.
"In this world, there are such powerful young people? Is he even human?" Takeda Kyoko murmured to herself, her emotions complex. She had no idea how to explain this to her father and family upon returning.
Ishii Ansei and Yamato Zawafu had been killed by this young Huaxia man, which was incredibly hard for her to accept.
Takeda Kyoko understood her father well; he only cared about results and not the process. Returning empty-handed would surely earn her his scorn.
Moreover, news about the Kunlun Divine Mirror had always been a secret of the Takeda Family and had never been leaked before. Although Jiang Chen somehow learned that the Kunlun Divine Mirror was in her family, ordinary people had never even heard of it.
Now that Takeda Kyoko had inadvertently revealed it in front of everyone, she could already imagine how furious her father would be and how her relatives would blame her.
"Mr. Jiang, may I ask you a question?" Tengye Kikuko said after Takeda Kyoko left.
"Go ahead," Jiang Chen replied with a faint smile, knowing that Tengye Kikuko might have been intimidated earlier.
"Mr. Jiang, are you from another world?" Tengye Kikuko looked at him and voiced her curiosity.
Jiang Chen's power was astonishing; only someone from another world could possess such talent.
"What do you mean by another world?" Jiang Chen asked Tengye Kikuko, unsure if she meant the fairy realm. However, he didn't want to reveal anything about that in front of ordinary people and pretended not to understand.
Having witnessed Jiang Chen's incredible abilities, Tengye Kikuko thought he must be from Another World. Now feeling somewhat disappointed, she realized that Jiang Chen himself seemed unaware of any such world.
"Mr. Jiang, are you really not from Another World?" Tengye Kikuko asked again.
"No."
"I thought only worlds beyond Earth could produce someone as extraordinary as you, Mr. Jiang. It seems I was mistaken," Tengye Kikuko said with a hint of regret and disappointment.
