"Hmm…where is this? " Water…Water…" Xuan weakly tried to open her eyes as she mumbled in a daze.
"Ah, Lord Xuan, you're awake. Wait, I'll get you some water now.”
Vaguely, Xuan heard a nervous voice beside him. It was crisp and pleasant to hear.
in a short while
He felt his back being lifted up gently and he was lying in someone's arms. A faint cherry blossom fragrance wafted into his nose, making him feel relaxed.
A cup of clear water was brought to his mouth. Xuan did not care who was serving him and hurriedly drank it in large mouthfuls. After drinking it in two mouthfuls, his throat felt a little better.
"Milord, let me pour you another cup."
Xuan felt herself being gently put down, and the person behind her walked away. In a short while, she came back with a glass of water. This went back and forth three times before she stopped.
lay down again
He carefully felt the condition of his body. The wound beside his heart had been bandaged.
All the wounds on his body had been treated, and some of the small cuts had already formed scars. It seemed that they had been treated by medical ninjutsu.
At the end of the battle between Xuan and Sunin, Xuan chose to go all out.
The moment before the other party was about to stab him, he forcefully avoided his heart.
He had only managed to finish off the other party with the Spiral Ball after he had missed the stab.
If he had hesitated or made a mistake, Tian Xuan would not have been able to get up.
In a daze, a pair of small hands pressed on his temples and gently rubbed them. He could feel that the owner of the hands was very careful, afraid of waking Xuan up.
Not long after, Xuan slowly opened his eyes. The first thing that greeted his eyes was a small and delicate face.
Her facial features were very delicate, and her hair was very long and soft.
He smelled a faint cherry blossom fragrance and was massaging his head with both hands.
She looked young and was about the same age as him. She was wearing a pink kimono and looked very comfortable.
"Who are you?"
Xuan asked doubtfully. When he opened his mouth, his voice was so hoarse that he was shocked.
Seeing that Xuan had woken up, the little girl's eyes flashed with surprise. She hurriedly placed his head on the pillow and ran to the side to kneel down in a very formal manner."Lord Xuan, my name is Qian Yeying. I'm a servant sent by the family head.”
"Attendant?"
Xuan turned his head and looked at her carefully. This time, he looked at her very carefully until she quietly lowered her head. Only then did he retract his gaze.
"Not bad. It's good to follow me in the future. Has Eldest Uncle returned?" Xuan softly said.
Qian Yeying's face lit up and she quickly said,""Yes, the patriarch came back yesterday.”
Xuan nodded slightly and continued to ask,"How many days have I been unconscious?"”
"Including today, Lord Xuan has been unconscious for a total of three days.”
"Where's the Uchiha spot? How is he?"
"Young master Ban's injuries are slightly lighter than Lord Xuan's. He is recuperating in his room and is out of danger.”
Xuan's lips curled up into a smile. He was keenly aware that Ying addressed Ban as Young Master while calling him Lord. This meant that in her heart, his position was higher than Ban's.
"Since uncle is back, what about the situation on the battlefield?”Xuan thought for a moment and asked.
"This servant doesn't know. The matters on the battlefield aren't things that servants like us can know.”
Xuan nodded.
He asked her a few more questions, but she didn't know most of the questions that involved the clan ninjas.
As for why his uncle would suddenly send him an attendant, Xuan could somewhat guess. It was probably because the news of him activating the Three Hook Jade Blood Wheel Eye and fighting Jounin had already reached his uncle's ears. Therefore, he gave him an attendant. This was a recognition of his strength and status.
In his eyes, she was no longer the next generation that needed protection, but a Uchiha ninja who could take charge of a certain area.
Perhaps there was another meaning, which was that after he recovered, he would finally be able to accept missions as a ninja.
Of course, it was also possible to go to the battlefield, but Xuan himself estimated that the possibility of going to the battlefield was not high. He was still too young, and the battlefield was too dangerous.
Unless his uncle was really stupid, or Uchiha was in a life-threatening situation, he probably wouldn't go to a place like the battlefield.
After thinking about this, Xuan began to ask him some personal questions.
"Ying, how old are you this year?"
"Six years old."
"Uh, you're one year older than me. I couldn't tell. Where are your parents?”
" I don't know. I haven't seen him since I was born. I've been living among a group of refugees since I could remember. I had to worry about food every day. Later, when I was three years old, I had a high fever and fainted. I was abandoned by them. Fortunately, I was picked up by the ninjas of my family. I've been living in the family and was trained as a maid.”
Qian Yeying spoke very calmly. Her tone did not fluctuate at all, as if she was not talking about herself.
Xuan frowned. He wanted to say something, but in the end, he didn't.
This was the Warring States Period, and such things were common. There were cruel bandits everywhere.
The various countries were fighting each other, and the ninjas of all races were in a mess. Who knew how many people would starve to death every day? A thousand miles of barren land was definitely not empty talk. It was already very lucky that Qianye Ying was picked up by the Uchiha clan.
In fact, there were many such people in the Uchiha clan, both men and women. The men asked them to cultivate the land and grow food to support the Uchiha clan. After all, you couldn't expect a group of murderous ninjas to farm.
The women were engaged in light work, such as weaving hemp clothes. Some beautiful ones would also be taken in by some ninjas.
After all, the blood of the Uchiha family could be inherited by the next generation as long as the man was from the Uchiha family. There was no requirement for the woman. Of course, whether or not she could open the Blood Wheel Eye was another matter.
"Ying, didn't you say that you didn't know who your parents were?”Xuan closed his eyes and asked casually.
Qian Yeying's hand paused for a moment, then she said as if nothing had happened,""Qianye is the surname of the person who adopted me. I don't have parents, so I naturally followed his surname.”
"Where is he now?"
"When I was three years old and had a high fever, he was the first to abandon me!”
Although Qian Yeying's tone was very calm, Xuan could clearly feel the strength in her hands increase. He chuckled and said,""I see. How about you take my surname, Uchiha?”
Qian Yeying's hand froze and she forced a smile.""Lord Xuan, you must be joking."
Xuan looked into her eyes seriously."I'm serious."
Qian Yeying didn't say anything else. She fell silent.
