Chapter 144. Osaka National Palace, the Arrogant Hen.
"We're almost in Osaka!" Jiang Shaoxu wasn't particularly interested in siren or anything like that; her excitement probably lay in eating and shopping.
She comes to Sakura often, otherwise how could she speak fluent Japanese? Whenever she speaks fluent Japanese with such a charming manner, it always makes people especially want to ask for seeds.
"Come on, I'll take you to eat something delicious!" Jiang Shaoxu saw that she had no intention of resting and was about to head to the food paradise with the girls.
Osaka truly is a food paradise; you could eat your way through desserts, snacks, and tea for days on end without feeling overwhelmed.
The girls in the group were all foodies. The moment food was mentioned, they forgot they came to Osaka to challenge the tournament. They disappeared through the train station in the blink of an eye, not letting the men follow them and disturb their romantic getaway…
Well, even if someone didn't go, Jiang Shaoxu would just drag them away.
There was no other way; under these circumstances, these men could only head towards the Osaka National Museum.
The location of the Osaka National Palace is quite interesting, situated on two mountains that rise about seven or eight kilometers from the coastline.
Huwang Mountain is two mountains with very similar shapes. The mountain faces are rugged and the slopes are steep. The road winds around the mountainside and you can see some bends with cliffs 180 degrees away from the road from time to time.
The National Pavilion is located on the mountaintop and is also known as the Twin Guardian Pavilion. From a distance, it looks like two gray-white castles standing on the mountain. Between the two sister pavilions, which are suspended high on the cliff, there is a suspended wooden walkway. There is only one mountain path, so the only way to reach one of the guard pavilions is through that aerial walkway!
This Twin Guardian Pavilion is very famous both domestically and internationally. Apart from Mo Fan, the others did not expect that the National Pavilion would be located here, which allowed them to witness the architectural art of the Sakura Twin Guardian Pavilion.
"The roof of the twin towers is actually a watchtower. Looking south from here, you can see the most intense naval battles in Osaka. That's why many military leaders live here... I never expected that the national pavilion in Sakura would be so imposing!" Jiang Yu said with emotion.
Upon arriving at the West Guardian Pavilion, the castle-like architecture was indeed magnificent and spectacular. However, in Mo Fan's view, this kind of castle with pointed eaves and tiled roofs was nothing more than a combination of Chinese and Western styles, and it didn't have much of a unique character.
Upon arriving at the stone wall, two Sakura mages dressed in Sakura samurai robes stood guard at the gate. When they saw Mo Fan and his group of young people, their gazes immediately sharpened, as if they had trespassed into forbidden territory.
"Hey, you're from Great Xia, aren't you?" A young woman in a kimono asked, holding a floral umbrella, her tone somewhat accusatory.
She used an international language, which everyone could understand.
The woman in the kimono walked over with small, quick steps. A kimono should easily bring out the elegance, intelligence, gentleness, and friendliness of a woman with cherry blossoms, but this woman was not so friendly. She suddenly closed the parasol in her hand and slammed it heavily on the ground, pointing at their group with her other hand.
"How do you know we are from the Great Xia?" Mo Fan asked, looking at the newcomer.
To be honest, this wretched woman is quite arrogant, and she seems to be quite hostile towards their Great Xia.
There is no internal strife among humans in this world, and she is quite hostile towards Great Xia, which is somewhat unpleasant.
"Only you tourists from Great Xia never know manners. Didn't you see a 'No Entry' sign when you were down the mountain? Can't you read?" The woman in the kimono turned to the side, puffing out her chest. Her tall wooden clogs accentuated her unusually tall stature, and her gaze towards Mo Fan and his group unconsciously became proud and disdainful.
"Who told you we were tourists?" Mo Fan said calmly.
"Even Chinese people who come here to work and gain Sakura status are not allowed. Get down the mountain now, or I'll throw you all down one by one!" the woman in the kimono said arrogantly.
"Pfft, you think your small-town background is worth our time?" Mo Fan said sarcastically.
These people were all dressed in smart and stylish clothes.
Mochizuki Chika also had an element of deliberately causing trouble in her actions.
Seeing that they didn't move, Mochizuki Chika became furious and pointed at them, saying, "Sougoroku is a sacred place in Osaka. Don't bring your filthy and disgusting air here. Get out of here."
"You bitch, try calling me again and I'll blow up your lousy house." Mo Fan naturally wouldn't tolerate her and immediately got straight to the point.
"What did you say? Say it again!!!" The woman in the kimono was so angry that her chest heaved violently, quite dramatically.
"Bitch." Mo Fan immediately repeated.
"That's not it!" The woman in the kimono tossed her parasol aside and said coldly.
Although this sentence also made her very angry, she was clearly more focused on the previous sentence.
"Bitch, do you want me to tear down your dilapidated house again?"
The woman in the kimono stretched out her hands and slowly pulled her slender, milky-white arms behind her neck, gently coiling her loose hair into a bun.
When her hair was down, the woman's face was not very clear, but when she put it up, her delicate face was fully revealed. She was a beautiful woman with outstanding looks, and a pair of silver pendants perfectly complemented her milky skin!
Sure enough, despite his bad temper, he was a wild horse.
They are worth subduing.
"Hmph!" The woman in the kimono had already styled her black hair, exuding an aloof and cold demeanor. Looking at Mo Fan, she said indifferently, "You'll regret saying that!"
The air suddenly turned cold, and strange vines began to sprout from the smooth gray marble beneath the woman in the kimono's feet.
Unbeknownst to them, these vines multiplied, and they could be seen intertwining together to form a petal more than a meter wide, with five petals, blooming one by one like bellflowers, distributed below the woman in the kimono, lifting her up in an instant!
The enormous bellflowers formed by the vines grew more and more rapidly. After the woman in the kimono gave a delicate shout, the plants grew at an astonishing speed, completely covering the marble flat area in front of the Nishigami-kaku, which was the size of a football field, in just a few seconds!
"Qianxun, stop!" A rough voice came from the direction of Xishouge.
The woman in the kimono was already furious to the point of being cold-blooded. Judging from her personality, she was definitely the kind of person who would not hold back. However, as that voice rang out again, this time with a stern rebuke, the kimono-clad woman's aura of a jungle queen quickly dissipated.
Clearly, they were unwilling, but dared not disobey the person who had spoken.
The densely intertwined plants on the ground withered quickly, turning into gray powder that scattered all over the ground in an instant.
Just moments ago, tensions were high, but now everything has returned to calm. The woman in the kimono is still breathing deeply, and you can see that her large breasts are constantly undulating, making you worry that they might suddenly pop out.
Mo Fan looked at Mochizuki Chika, who had stopped, and gave her a provocative smile. His aggressive gaze only made Mochizuki Chika even more furious.
