Ban and Zhujian consciously left, leaving the remaining time to Ling alone.
They would never let go of Uchiha and Isui.
Ling knew that this was a test given to him by his grandfather. If Ling could make a move and had the resolve to sacrifice everything to become a ninja, he would kill Uchiha Isui and pretend that he knew nothing.
If Ling didn't have the resolve to kill Uchiha Isui, then when they returned, Uchiha Isui would tell them everything.
When these things were on the table, Uchiha would definitely deal with Ling.
This was the tacit understanding between the grandfather and grandson, and Uchiha Isui was also very clear about it.
"Ling…cough cough…Young Master, congratulations…to you!”Isui Uchiha had one eye open, and her face was covered in blood, looking very ugly.
Ling stood quietly and looked down at the other party.
" Uncle Isui," he said slowly," ten days ago, Uchiha was attacked by the five families of Feather Coat, Akinami, Nara, Yamanaka, and Yukari. That was the moment that shocked me.”
Ling's gaze was blurry as he thought of the people who had died in the war, the dead Uchiha Joe, and Uchiha Okatsu who had inherited Uchiha Joe's will after the war ended.
"My dream has always been to become a ninja, but the purpose of becoming a ninja is to fight with the strong and see the glory of the strong. But that day, I saw the will of the clan ninja and the spirit of everyone sacrificing everything for the clan.”
Ling's tone changed and he said with a hint of mockery,""But what's the use?"
"In this battle, the clans did not gain anything. The only result for all the clans was that more people died and more corpses were left behind.”
"The women in the family lost their fathers, husbands, sons, and grandchildren.”
"The men of the clan lost their mothers, wives, daughters, and granddaughters.”
" I don't see the meaning of such sacrifices. I think it's a stupid thing to do. Do you want everyone to sacrifice their lives for that illusory honor?”
"This…is the fate of a ninja…It's the most important…thing…that Uchiha's…family…protects!”Uchiha Isui retorted with difficulty.
Under his body, fresh blood accumulated and formed a small puddle.
His life was slowly slipping away, and it was unstoppable.
Uchiha and Isui struggled to open their eyes, and the three magatama shura looked at Ling's figure with blurry eyes.
"No, in my heart, the most important thing is not the honor of the family. The most important thing for the Uchiha family is the clansmen. Everyone has the same blood.”Ling shook her head with a determined expression. The two tadpole-like magatama slowly rotated as if she could see the trajectory of the entire world.
"I want to end all of this. I want to provide a stable, peaceful place for my family members, a place where they will never die again!”
"You…can't do it!" Isui said.
"No, I can do it." Ling was expressionless as he looked into the distance." With my talent, I can do it.”
"Uncle Yi Shui, let me tell you. The ability I have is something that even the Shura Eye can't reach. The so-called Shura Eye can only provide me with strong eyesight and resistance to illusions.”
He lowered his head and looked at the spot and pillar in the distance. He smiled and said," I've already found a companion who shares the same ideals and awareness!”
" Is that so..." Isui Uchiha opened her mouth and laughed, spitting out large mouthfuls of blood.
"If…you die…"
Before he could finish speaking, a tachi had already pierced through his chest.
Uchiha Isui stared at the sword with wide eyes. This was his sword.
Ling's hand was trembling. His face was pale, but his gaze was unprecedentedly firm.
Uchiha Isui's life force was rapidly draining away. Just before he died, Plume whispered into his ear,""Uncle Yishui, I have an undying body.”
Uchiha Isui's eyes suddenly lit up, and then completely lost its luster.
Ling stood up, took a deep breath, turned around and left, not looking at Uchiha and Isui anymore.
"Ban, Zhu Jian, please bury him.”Ling said dejectedly.
"Let me do it." Zhu Jian nodded and pressed his hands on the ground. A sapling rose from the ground.
Under his control, the sapling wrapped around Uchiha Isui's body. It was like a wooden coffin.
He crossed his hands and began to form a seal,"Zi-Wu-You-Mao, Earth Escape, Yellow Spring Marsh!”
The ground rippled like water.
This was the effect of the Yellow Spring Marsh. The hard ground turned into a swamp.
Normally, it was used to restrict the enemy's speed. Now, it was used to bury the wooden coffin that contained Uchiha Isui's body.
The wooden coffin sank very quickly and soon disappeared.
Only then did Zhu Jian stop and stand up.
"It's getting late. Let's go back."
Looking up, there was already a cloud of fire in the distance.
The sun set in the west, the sun rose when he came, and the evening when he returned.
Ling nodded with a tired expression." Ban, Zhu, I'll leave first."”
……
Back at the Uchiha Family Residence, Ling returned home and ignored everyone else as he rushed into his room.
Uchiha stood in the distance and watched indifferently. In the end, he didn't say anything or ask anything. He turned around and left.
As night fell, a figure entered the Uchiha family's residence. The journey was smooth and unhindered until he arrived at Uchiha's study.
"Lord You!" He half-knelt on the ground and said respectfully.
"Report what happened today. Tell me everything, big or small.”
Uchiha put down the scroll in his hand and said slowly.
"Yes, sir!"
The man raised his head, and a familiar face appeared in front of Uchiha.
It was Uchiha Isui!
Thank you for the monthly votes! The most pleasant thing was that he could see the system's new messages when he refreshed! His rating was 9.6…Although it was useless, it made him happy…He had agreed to update two chapters in the afternoon, but he couldn't get up after taking a nap. It didn't matter. After all, it was four chapters today, and the remaining two chapters would be released at night.
