Konoha's Frozen Vortex

Chapter 315 Returning to Ghost Lamp City

"The last time, I came with that guy Xuan Weng. In a blink of an eye, many years have passed!"

Xue Hui looked at the huge castle on the isolated island by the sea, Ghost Lamp City, and sighed.

"who!"

Seeing the stranger Xue Hui approaching, the guard at the gate hastily yelled to stop.

Ordinary people would avoid this kind of place, and most of those who approached here had special purposes.

"I'm here to find your city lord, Wuwei."

Xuehui took out a letter from Kusanagi Village and handed it to the guard.

This is a letter he wrote at Xuehui's request after he visited Kusanagi Village not long ago and persuaded the other party to join the agreement.

At the end of the third battle, they quickly defeated the two great ninja villages of Wunin and Yunnin, making these small ninja villages admire and envy the country of Uzumaki, and greet Xuehui with smiles.

After handing the letter to the guard, after waiting for a while, Xue Hui was welcomed in.

Wuwei was in the central square at this time, torturing a prisoner who made mistakes with his special fire escape ninjutsu.

Xue Hui watched quietly from the side as the prisoner lost his voice and fell to the ground from howling.

Wu Wei had someone drag the prisoner away, then patted the dust off his gloves, and turned to look at Xue Hui, the unexpected visitor.

"It's you!"

Wuwei recognized Xuehui at a glance, and his memory of the encounter a few years ago was still fresh in his memory.

However, what puzzled him was that last time Xue Hui was so aggressive, as sharp as his knife.

Seeing him again this time, Xue Hui didn't feel any fluctuations in his body, and he no longer wore the demon sword.

"Long time no see, Wuwei."

Xuehui said hello.

"That poor guy just now, are you going to feed it to the Bliss Box?"

Xue Hui asked in a flat tone.

"Are you here for the Bliss Box?"

Wuwei frowned and said in a deep voice.

"Do you know the origin of the Bliss Box?"

Xue Hui shook his head and asked back.

"The legendary ninja tool of the Sage of the Six Paths can fulfill a wish of the person who opens it."

Wuwei understands that Xuehui also understands this, so he no longer hides it.

"That's right, since you answered me so directly, then I will open the skylight and speak plainly."

Xuehui still appreciates Wuwei's attitude.

"This thing can indeed fulfill your wish, but it's just a twisted version of your wish."

"What do you mean?"

Wuwei looked at Xuehui solemnly.

"Literally, your son, can indeed be resurrected, but it has become a twisted monster that only knows to bring destruction and fear."

"So, are you sure you want to fulfill the conditions for opening the Bliss Box, and finally release such a twisted thing to harm the ninja world?"

Xuehui said truthfully.

"How do I know whether what you say is right or wrong?"

Wuwei was quick to express his doubts.

"It's simple—"

Xue Hui stretched out a finger and said.

"If I covet this thing, I can take it from you one day."

"Second point," Xue Hui stretched out his second finger, "You couldn't beat me back then, and the gap between you and me will only be bigger now, and your seemingly powerful sealing technique is in my eyes. Nothing."

"Third point, you can't beat the monster in the box named Wu who wears your son's skin, but I can."

Xue Hui stretched out three fingers, waved them in front of Wuwei's eyes, and said emphatically.

Seeing Wuwei's silence, Xuehui sighed.

"For the sake of your child, I won't force you. How about this? I'll help you open this box of bliss in this Ghost Lamp City, and let you see the true face inside, how about it?"

Xue Hui suggested.

"However," Xue Hui changed the topic when he saw Wuwei who was a little moved:
"This is conditional. After the matter is resolved, I want you to take the initiative to confess to Cao Ninja Village the crimes you have done in the past and make atonement for it. Although you are for your son, you kill for your own self-interest, even if you are a prisoner Nor should it."

Xue Hui said seriously.

"can."

Wuwei agreed without even thinking about it.

"As long as you can help me open the box of bliss, I can do whatever you want."

Wuwei's longing for his son has long surpassed anything else.

"Then I'll go."

The deal was concluded, Xue Hui urged Wuwei with a smile.

"Oh, that's right! Little girl hiding in the shadows, I advise you not to follow this time, or you will die. After today, go back to Kusanagi to report."

Xue Hui stopped in his tracks and said loudly, his voice echoing in the square.

Wuwei was taken aback for a moment, then he didn't say anything, and walked directly to the basement with Xuehui.

"This thing has grown so big! It seems that you have caused many prisoners to suffer."

Xue Hui looked at the huge box that nearly filled half of the room, and satirized Wu Wei.

"..."

Wuwei just looked at Xuehui and didn't speak.

"Ugh--"

Xue Hui sighed, walked to the Bliss Box, looked at the lines of the smiling face facing him, and squatted down.

"rise!"

Xue Hui lifted the Bliss Box directly, and walked out of the basement step by step. With each step causing the ground to tremble, Xue Hui threw the Bliss Box in the center of the square.

"Go, as usual, let it open."

Xue Hui ordered.

Wuwei listened, and made a seal with both hands, and the Bliss Box slowly opened an opening, a strong suction emerged from it, and Xue Hui could clearly feel the greedy emotion contained in it.

"It's easy if you can feel your position. You can't solve the Yin-Yang escape of the Six Paths, but I can."

Xue Hui said something Wuwei didn't understand, and stretched out his right hand towards the opening.

Immediately afterwards, Xue Hui manipulated the natural energy, formed a big empty hand, and suddenly stretched into the box of bliss.

"Uh-"

An indescribable moan came from inside the Bliss Box, and then the whole huge box shook violently, like a caged animal struggling.

Not long after, under Wuwei's shocked eyes, the box of bliss, which would not be damaged at all no matter how hard it was attacked, suddenly disintegrated with a burst of dazzling light.

With the departure of each side, the secret of the Bliss Box was also revealed in front of the two of them.

"This--!"

Wuwei looked at the young man inside, and the extremely familiar face aroused his deepest emotions.

"son!"

Wuwei just wanted to go forward to get closer, but was stopped by Xuehui.

"what are you doing!"

"Be sober, he is no longer your son!"

Xuehui let Wuwei calm down.

"Stainless!"

But what Xuehui didn't expect was that the female Cao Ninja whom he had reminded to leave ran towards the monster 'Wu' regardless.

"what!"

Unsurprisingly, his throat was grabbed by a pair of ruthless hands.
