Konoha's Peerless Peerless

Chapter 174 A Fickle Heart
In the early morning, three unknown birds with bright yellow feathers were standing by the window and chirping. The sound entered Lan's dreamland. Lan's eyebrows began to tremble. After a while, his eyes opened. He rubbed his head and sat up, turning his gaze to the culprit who woke him up.

As soon as he turned his gaze away, the three birds flew away as if they were frightened.

Lan looked back helplessly, yawned, and then cleaned up briefly. When the cleaning was almost done, there was a knock on the door.

"Bang bang bang~"

"Are you awake, Lan?"

This is the voice between the pillars.

Lan went to the door and opened it, looking at the column outside the door and asked: "When did you come back?"

"I came back in the middle of the night. The status of an onmyoji in this era is much better than that of a ninja in our era. I remember my era. If you want to stop the war, you have to subdue both sides. Back then, Madara and I..."

As Hashirama talked, he couldn't help recalling, just when he was full of nostalgia and wanted to tell Lan about the glorious history of him and Madara, Lan waved his hands and said helplessly: "Okay, I think it's better to let I'll wash my face first, and I'll talk about it after I finish cleaning up."

"Okay, then I'll wait for you below." Zhujian also knew that Lan didn't like to hear him talk, so he sighed in frustration and walked down with a downcast face.

Watching Hashirama go downstairs, Lan turned around and went to the washroom to wash, and he went downstairs after drying his face.

As soon as he reached the corner of the stairs, the smell of food entered Lan's nostrils. It seemed that he got up a little late, and the food was ready.

Speeding up the pace and going downstairs, I saw that Hashirama and the others were eating the food on the table with chopsticks around the table, while Shizune was wearing an apron and carrying the dishes.

It seems that today's meal is cooked silently.

Seeing Lan, Jing Yin put down the plate in her hand, straightened up and pulled a chair and said to Lan, "Wake up, come and taste how my cooking tastes."

"Did you make it? Then I have to taste it." Lan smiled and went to the chair and sat down.

As soon as Lan sat down, Jing Yin smiled and handed over a pair of chopsticks and said, "Hurry up and eat."

"Thank you." Lan replied, and then opened his chopsticks to pick up a mouthful of food.

After eating a few mouthfuls and preparing to continue serving food, he stopped suddenly, and everyone was watching him with concern in their eyes.

"Guru~"

Lan swallowed the food, put down his chopsticks and asked, "You see what I am doing, why don't you eat it? Doesn't this dish suit your appetite? I think it's pretty good."

"No, the food is pretty good, but we heard from Izumi that you were attacked by Kaguya last night, why did she attack you, did she find out that we are from the future?" Tsunade shook his head and asked.

"No, it's absolutely impossible. She didn't realize our true identities. The reason why she attacked me was probably just to control me. She sensed the power of the dragon veins in my body, so..." Lan guessed.

"Is that all?" Tsunade asked.

"It should be, only she understands her specific thoughts." Lan turned his eyes towards the direction of the palace, and everyone's eyes were the same as Lan's.

After looking over there a few times, they turned back to the dining table under Jing Yin's urging and began to eat with each other's thoughts.

Over there in the palace, in Hui Ye's room.

Tianji and Huiye were looking at each other and kneeling on the soft cotton pad. They had already had breakfast, and now it was time for them to be tender.

Somehow, as long as she stays by Tianji's side, she can feel an unprecedented sense of security from here. Maybe this is what humans call a sense of security. It feels so good to be able to rely on.

Kaguya liked this feeling.

When Kaguya was enjoying this sense of security, Tianji opened his eyes and stared at the carved pine beams. For some reason, he suddenly wanted to have power like those onmyojis. If he and those generals If the envoy of the other country is as powerful as the onmyoji who scared the crap out of him, then he can protect his ancestral country, and maybe he can expand the territory.

His idea is very good, but the helpless thing is that it is impossible for ordinary people to learn yin and yang, and it is impossible to control spiritual energy. He will not be able to possess that kind of power until he dies.

Thinking of this, Tianji sighed melancholy.

"Ugh……"

Kaguya, who was enjoying a sense of security, heard Tianji's sigh, opened his eyes and asked, "What's wrong, my husband, what's bothering you?"

Tianji looked at Hui Ye with his head sideways, and said melancholy: "Hui Ye, you said it would be great if I had the power of an onmyoji, if I had that kind of power, then the envoys of that country would not If you are so rude to me, the country of the motherland will not be invaded, alas, unfortunately, I will never have that kind of power."

Huiye blinked at Tianji, she hesitated for a while, then stood up and said: "Is this what my husband is worried about? If you want strength, I can give you some as long as you wait for a while. I will give you some strength in the future." The power given to you is far beyond that of the Onmyoji."

Hearing Hui Ye's words, Tianji stood up and shook his head with a smile, "Hui Ye, you are joking, how could you have the power to surpass Onmyoji."

"Does my husband not believe me?" Hui Ye asked with raised eyebrows.

"Of course, how could anyone believe this kind of thing, Kaguya, let's rule the country of our motherland well. When our country is rich and the people are strong, maybe my ambition can be realized." Tianji said with a smile.

Looking at Tianji who was smiling and shaking his head, Kaguya frowned, got up and went to the window, opened the window and looked at the sacred tree in the distance and said to Tianji: "Husband, do you still remember the first time you met me?" ?”

Tenji immediately recalled the first time he and Kaguya met. At that time, he was discussing state affairs with two powerful ministers on the wooden steps of the imperial palace. When they were discussing, Ashigaru came to inform that there was a woman outside. When they met each other, Hui Ye suddenly appeared in front of him before he could send that person in.

Her sudden appearance surprised everyone present at the time, and two of them were about to stop her, but before they got close, those two ashigaru suddenly collapsed to the ground.

Thinking of this, Tianji's eyes widened, and he hurried to Hui Ye's side and asked excitedly, "Could it be that you also have spiritual energy?"

Kaguya looked at the sacred tree, shook his head and said, "I have never had that kind of thing, I have natural energy in my body."

Although Tianji is the son of heaven, he still doesn't understand the power that Huiye said. Although he doesn't understand anything, it doesn't affect the excitement in his heart.

"Are you going to share some of the natural energy in your body with me?" Tianji asked innocently.

"Pfft~"

Hui Ye covered her mouth and smiled, shook her head and said, "Husband, you are joking, I can only use that kind of energy briefly now, and the energy I plan to distribute to you is the energy of the sacred tree that I have been waiting for - Chakra, The fruit of the sacred tree is about to ripen, and when it is ripe, I will eat it, so that I have chakra energy, and I will share some with you at that time, so that you have the power second only to me, by virtue of With this power, husband, you can do whatever you want."

Tianji's breathing became heavy, he stared closely at Kaguya who suddenly made him feel a little strange, and asked: "Can I use that power to expand the territory?"

"Of course, not to mention expanding the territory, even ruling the world will be easy for you. At that time, you and I will be in charge of Chakra and rule the world together. Isn't that wonderful?" Kaguya said happily With a smile, she thought that Tianji would be the same as she thought.

One of the most fickle things in this world is the weather, and the other is the human heart.

When Tianji heard about jointly ruling the world, a trace of unhappiness quietly rose from his heart. Although he sometimes told Hui Ye that the country of the motherland belonged to them, in his heart, he always regarded the country of the motherland as his own. human.

He stood there feeling unhappy, looked sideways at the happy Kaguya, and thought: Kaguya is still too simple, how can she rule the world when she is so simple, she is only suitable to stay at home and be her ancestor The queen, other things, it is more appropriate to give him other things, eating the so-called fruit of the sacred tree can have great power, why can't the person who eats it be him? Could it be that Kaguya is not Do not believe him.

Turning his eyes, Tianji asked Huiye with a hypocritical smile: "Huiye, as far as I know, mortals can't get close to the sacred tree. Whenever someone approaches, they will be killed by an inexplicable force. What are you going to do?" Close to where to pick the fruit of the sacred tree."

Kaguya didn't notice the change in Tianji's mind, she trusted him so much that she never peeped into his heart after she was sure he loved her.

Turning back to Tianji with a slight smile, he said, "The sacred tree was planted by my concubine. It is easy to get close to it. When the fruit is fully ripe, I will take my husband and you to go there together."

"Is that so? It really couldn't be better." Tianji had a smile on his face, but probably only he knew what was going on in his heart.

The two stood by the window tenderly, and after a short while, a sense of nausea spread from Huiye's abdomen. She frowned and covered her stomach, and said to Tianji who had been staring at the sacred tree: "Husband, I'll go out for a while."

Tianji, who had been staring at the sacred tree, nodded and said, "Okay, you can go."

"Well, I'm resigning as a concubine." Hui Ye smiled gently at Tianji, and walked out happily.

After she left, Tianji's expression changed. He stared closely at the sacred tree, gritted his teeth and said, "Is it the fruit of the sacred tree? It's better to leave that kind of thing to me, Kaguya, just Let my husband eat that kind of thing for you, and when I rule the whole world, I will give you some power to make you the woman who is the master of the world."

Thinking of how he ruled the world, the corners of Tianji's mouth twitched. He squinted his eyes and smiled for a while, then turned around and opened the door and went out. He had to make a good plan with his loyal minister, how to get back from Huiye. Lie the fruit of the divine tree in your hand.
