The dark room, the dim candlelight, the blood all over the floor, a female corpse without a skull, brains overflowing, all eyes red, limbs twisted, death so miserable that it had to be mosaic.

In the same room as this female corpse, there were two other women, Tang Chao Lizi's eyes lit up, and she cautiously and humbly leaned over to look at a young woman with her legs crossed, her long hair tied into a bundle hanging down her back, a pure white kimono with two ropes tied to her shoulders and asked, "Did you really succeed?"

The woman smiled with satisfaction: "It's a success!"

Hidden under the woman's calm face was the turbulent waves in her heart, the long-cherished wish of the ancestors of the Nine Ghost Family, and with the completion of this new technique today, it has finally taken a big step forward.

Back then, in that distant battle, this long-cherished wish was once so within reach, but an unpredictable accident turned everything into a bubble, and this time, the opportunity came again, and it was never allowed to slip away again.

More than 3,000 years ago, just after the end of the civil war, the formal unification of the Wa Kingdom was surging, and the local power was still controlled by the powerful clans, and each huge family was secretly looking for an opportunity to strengthen itself and encroach on the surrounding areas, looking forward to one day standing at the apex of the Wa Kingdom, so as to plant the flag printed with their family crest throughout the Goryeo Kingdom and the Huaxia Kingdom...... , and every corner of the world.

In the context of this crazy era where everyone's ambitions are inflated, the Nine Ghost Family is naturally not exempt from vulgarity, and the family governors of all generations have the same complex of conquering the world.

However, compared to the inner heat, the reality is always cold and cruel, and in the endless battles, the strength of the Nine Ghost Family was gradually consumed, and finally had to rely on the strongest Toyotomi family at the time to help it complete its unification.

The longer the surface of the peace is maintained, the more slim the hope of re-emergence, but fate loves to play tricks on the world, just when the nine ghost families have been content with the status quo and give up the struggle for hegemony, there is a strange woman in the family, this woman seems to be born tailor-made for the battle, no matter how difficult the moves to learn, in her hands it is like a child's game to learn.

When she was just ten years old, she once delivered a letter for her father, who was the governor of the Nine Ghost Family at the time, and strayed into the mountains to encounter the most cruel bandit organization "Sansho Fish" in the Japanese Kingdom.

In the face of more than 100 ruthless and inhuman bandits, she had no fear and annihilated the other party with the strength of one person.

Since then, her legend has spread throughout the Wa Kingdom, and people respectfully call her "Hundred Killers", but because of this, she has gradually forgotten her real name Nine Ghost Eagle.

"Ah Ying, it would be nice if you were born fifty years earlier!" Toba Castle, the stronghold of the Nine Ghost Clan, as the governor of the Nine Ghosts, once again lost in the shogi game with his daughter.

The daughter of the intelligence and commander far surpassed that of any of the retainers under her command, and she couldn't help but sigh again and again.

"Father, don't be discouraged, as long as your daughter lives for a day, she will never let the flame of her family's ambition be extinguished!" The Nine Ghost Eagle stared at the old father's eyes with a firm gaze.

But even so, the Nine Ghosts Jiasheng still failed to get strength from his daughter's eyes, and sighed lightly: "It's not easy to talk about, now it's Toyotomi's world, and using force without Toyotomi's permission is the public enemy of the world, no matter how strong you are, you can't fight against the entire Wa Kingdom by yourself......"

"Opportunity! Opportunity will come!" Nine Ghost Eagle bit his lip and looked away.

"Father, Father!" In the short interval between the father and daughter, the door was pulled open horizontally with a hula, and the eldest son of the Nine Ghosts Jiasheng, the Nine Ghosts Shousheng, knelt at the door, sweating profusely, "Battle...... The war has begun!"

"What war?" "Nine Ghosts Jiasheng bounced up suddenly, his eyes blazing at the Nine Ghosts to defend the victory.

Nine Ghost Shou Katsu wiped a handful of sweat: "Tokugawa, Tokugawa openly rebelled against Toyotomi, the envoy of the Toyotomi family brought the order of Hideyori Gong asking my Nine Ghost Clan to participate in the war, and he is already waiting for his father in the hall, and the war is about to start again!"

"Great, Father-sama!" "The Nine Ghost Eagle blushed with excitement, "Since Hideyori took charge of Toyotomi, the strength has been much worse than before, causing powerful princes such as Tokugawa to constantly provoke its authority, and now it is even more openly raising the banner of anti-Lord, as long as the father destroys Tokugawa in this battle and establishes meritorious deeds, and overthrows Toyotomi in one fell swoop when he is full-fledged, the hegemony of my Nine Ghost Family will be just around the corner!"

"Okay! good!" Nine Ghost Jiasheng patted his son's shoulder excitedly, "Don't miss the opportunity, I'll wait for the speedy assembly and crusade against Tokugawa, don't be left behind!"

"Father-sama!" "Father-sama" Nine Ghosts Morikatsu looked solemn, and there was no excitement of the two fathers and daughters opposite, "Father-sama doesn't know, Tokugawa is the strongest among the princes of all walks of life, and this time the army has united Kato, Fukushima, Kuroda, Hosokawa, Asano and many other princes, known as the Eastern Army, and its strength should not be underestimated. ”

On the other hand, the Western Army led by Toyotomi, the leader Hideyori Gong is not more troublesome, and the commander Mitsunari Gong is not accustomed to bow horses, although the number is not inferior to the Eastern Army, but the combat power may not be able to resist it, so I think whether to join the Western Army is still up for debate. "Regarding the current situation, the Nine Ghosts Shousheng has a distinctly different view from his father.

"Damn Tokugawa!" Nine Ghost Yoshikatsu gritted his teeth in hatred, "Has it reached this point?"

After listening to her brother's analysis of the situation, the Nine Ghost Eagle also groaned, but after some inner calculation, she still insisted on her original opinion: "Maybe my brother is right, the Western Army is indeed difficult to defeat the Eastern Army, but because of this, the role of my Nine Ghost Family can be best reflected." If he joined the Eastern Army according to his brother, wouldn't he drive away a Toyotomi and come again

One Tokugawa, what's the benefit of my Nine Ghost Family?"

"But now that the situation is out of the way, if we have to choose between Toyotomi and Tokugawa, why not choose Tokugawa, which has a better chance of winning?"

"It seems that my brother has underestimated the strength of his own family and the strength of my 'Hundred Slashing Ji'!" The Nine Ghost Eagles sneered at each other, "With the strength of my Nine Ghost Army, will the Western Army be inferior to the Eastern Army?"

"Ah Ying! it's about the survival of our family, don't play with it!" The Nine Ghosts were already a little angry.

Seeing that the two siblings were about to quarrel, Jiugui Jiasheng hurriedly stopped the two: "Quiet! Shousheng is right, this choice is related to the rise and fall of the family, and you must not be careless." Come, you all sit down near me, and the three of us will have a good discussion!"

Time passed bit by bit, and the envoy of the Toyotomi family in the hall was anxious, pacing back and forth, Jiasheng Lao'er, should he also betray the lord?

"Hahaha! Let the envoy wait for a long time, I don't know what Xiu Laigong has to say to the old decay?" After a long time, the voice of the Nine Ghosts finally sounded outside the door, and the envoy finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Jiasheng Gong, don't pretend to be confused!" The envoy glanced at the Nine Ghosts Jiasheng with "resentment", "The lord's oracle has been explained to Shousheng Gong very clearly!"

"Oh! oh!" Nine Ghost Jiasheng patted his head, "Look at the memory of the old decay, and forget such important information when you change your clothes!

The envoy also very cooperatively "stretched out his hand to block": "It's okay, it's okay! Since Jiasheng Gong has already remembered at this time, the mission in Xia has been completed, and I don't know how to return to the Lord in Xia?" said as if he had changed people, staring at the Nine Ghosts Jiasheng motionlessly.

The Nine Ghosts immediately knelt down on one knee, his expression instantly became extremely respectful, and he replied in a loud voice: "Nine Ghosts Jiasheng!

"Well said! With the words of Jiasheng Gong, why should the Tokugawa traitor not be extinguished!" The messenger was "moved" very much, stepped forward to help the Nine Ghosts Jiasheng, and held his hand tightly, "I heard that Jiasheng Gong's young daughter Bai Chopping Ji is one of the best in ten thousand and brave in martial arts, and the lord is very much looking forward to her performance in this battle!"

Nine Ghost Jiasheng nodded solemnly: "I will never disappoint Xiu Lai Gong!"

"That's it, I'm leaving!" the messenger saluted to the Nine Ghosts and wanted to leave.

With a satisfied smile on his face, he walked out of the hall with brisk steps, and the messenger had just stepped out of the door with one foot when he was suddenly knocked back by a reckless samurai.

"Lord of the family, it's not good! Lord Shousheng led his men out of the city, saying that he had defected to the Eastern Army!" the samurai who had hit the man didn't even have time to help the messenger who had fallen to the ground, and shouted at the Nine Ghosts Jiasheng with a loud voice.
