Naruto Bond

Lu Fei and Naruto continued to move forward, their steps carrying a calmness and determination after a great war. Each step left a shallow footprint on the land that was gradually regaining its vitality, as if it was a new mark of their legendary story.

As they moved away, the place where the Ryota Dragon King disappeared was completely covered by new vegetation and flowing springs. The land that was once torn apart by the battle now looked like a painting that had regained vitality, with new green branches and leaves swaying gently in the breeze, exuding the fragrance of life. Flowers bloomed in brilliant colors under the sun, and butterflies danced among the flowers, interweaving with the sound of gurgling water around to form a beautiful movement, as if cheering for the rebirth of this continent.

They walked along a winding path. The trees on both sides of the path became more and more dense. The sunlight shone through the gaps between the leaves, forming golden spots, like tiny gold coins spread on the ground. Occasionally, a few small birds flew over the branches, making crisp chirping sounds, adding a bit of agility to the quiet atmosphere.

"This battle was really difficult, but fortunately we succeeded." Naruto broke the silence. He looked up at the sunlight shining through the leaves, with a look of relief in his eyes.

Lu Fei nodded and said, "Yes, the Dragon King Ruota is indeed powerful, but we have not retreated. I hope this continent can be peaceful for a while." As he spoke, he gently stroked the new moss on the tree trunk beside him, feeling the tenacity of life.

At this moment, they heard a melodious song coming from the front. The song was ethereal and beautiful, like a spring in the mountains flowing through their hearts, making people unconsciously intoxicated by it. The song seemed to have a mysterious magic that attracted them to speed up their pace and move forward.

After passing a dense bush, they saw a beautiful lake. The water was crystal clear, like a huge mirror, reflecting the surrounding mountains and sky. There were huge pink lotuses floating on the lake, and the petals of the lotus were like the skirts of a girl, swaying gently in the breeze. In the center of the lake, a woman in a white gauze skirt was singing. Her singing came from here, and the sound was like the sound of nature, making the whole lake shrouded in a mysterious and peaceful atmosphere.

The woman had long hair like a waterfall, which sparkled with silver luster in the sun. Her face was exquisite and beautiful, her skin was whiter than snow, and her eyes were like deep lake water, revealing endless tenderness and mystery. In her hand, she held a slender willow branch with a light blue ribbon tied to it, which fluttered in the air as she moved.

Seeing Lu Fei and Naruto, the woman stopped singing and looked at them with a smile, which was as warm and charming as a flower blooming in spring. "Guests from afar, welcome here. I am the guardian of this lake, and you can call me Liyue." Her voice was as beautiful as her song, with a special rhythm.

Lu Fei and Naruto looked at each other. They felt that the woman had no ill intentions. "Hello, Liyue. We are travelers passing by here. We just heard your singing and were attracted here." Lu Fei said.

Li Yue smiled softly, "You are here guided by destiny. I know about your battle with the Ruota Dragon King. Your heroic deeds have spread across this continent. You are the heroes of this continent."

Naruto scratched his head and smiled sheepishly, "We just did what we should do. Protecting this continent is our mission."

Liyue nodded slightly, "Your mission is extremely noble. However, your journey is still long, and there are many unknowns waiting for you ahead. This lake may be able to provide you with some help." As she spoke, she waved the willow branch in her hand, and the lotus on the lake began to move slowly, forming a path leading to the center of the lake.

Lu Fei and Naruto looked at the lotus road in front of them, their hearts full of curiosity. They walked along the lotus road to the center of the lake, and they could feel the gentle power of the lotus under their feet with every step. When they came to Li Yue, she stretched out her hand, and two crystal clear crystals appeared in her hand.

"These two crystals are the treasures of this lake. They contain mysterious powers. You may encounter a time when you need them in your future adventures." Liyue handed the crystals to them.

Lu Fei took the crystal and felt the warm power coming from it, "Thank you, Liyue. We will definitely make good use of them."

Liyue looked at them with a smile, "I hope you can continue to protect the peace and tranquility of this continent. Your journey continues, and this lake will always bless you."

After bidding farewell to Liyue, Lu Fei and Naruto left the lake with the crystal.
