Dawn had just broken, and there were still a few stars in the pale blue sky. The ground was hazy, and from afar, the ground was covered with a layer of silver gauze.
The morning air brought with it the faint fragrance of the soil. When the feather pushed open the door, it entered every pore of his body.
Ling's entire body shook, and his mind cleared up.
Ninjas usually carried out their missions very early. Except for very urgent missions, they would suddenly send people during the day.
At this moment, Ling was wearing a black robe. She seemed to be wearing nothing underneath, revealing her fair collarbone.
He was a handsome young man, but he looked strangely seductive. Puzzled.
Due to special reasons, he was fond of robes. He was absolutely unwilling to be like Uchiha, who wore his family's battle armor.
There was a red ribbon on his waist, a tachi, and two or three Kunai pills, reflecting a ghastly brilliance in the darkness.
Just as he was in high spirits and was about to set off to meet up with the clan ninjas who were on a mission with him, he suddenly heard a cough from the side.
"Ahem…"
Ling turned her head and was surprised to see Uchiha helping Megumi out.
"Grandpa, Grandma!" Ling quickly walked forward and helped Uchiha Megumi up.
"Grandma, why are you up so early? If you're not feeling well, you should rest well.”Ling complained.
"Hehe, Grandma's grandson is about to go on his first mission. How can Grandma not stand up and give him some instructions?”Megumi Uchiha said with a smile.
Her face was covered in patches of dead spots that almost covered her entire face.
In the dark night, she was like a candle that could be extinguished at any time. She was dying, but because of the feather, she persevered.
"Ling, let me tell you, since you've become a ninja, I'm old and can't stop you anymore. But you have to think about it, you're my only grandson, so nothing must happen to you.”Megumi Uchiha instructed.
"Don't worry, Grandma. Didn't Grandpa tell you that I'm already very powerful?”Ling nodded and replied.
"Come back early after completing the mission. You're not allowed to stay outside just because it's fun. Grandma doesn't have much time left.”Megumi Uchiha said.
Ling looked at her grandmother carefully. She was the one who had changed the most in the past two years. Uchiha said that she was injured when she was young, leaving behind a hidden danger that led to the rapid decline of her vitality. There was no way to change it.
Ling's eyes reddened when he thought about how an old man like him would wake up early for him. He held back his tears and squeezed out a smile. He promised,"Yes, Grandma, I will definitely complete the mission as soon as possible!”
"Safety, safety is the most important." Megumi Uchiha repeatedly instructed.
After giving her instructions, she slowly left with the help of the servants.
If it wasn't for the fact that Ling had to go on a mission, she would have rested until the sun rose completely. After saying these few words, she was already yawning and dispirited.
"Ling, come with me." Uchiha said to Ling.
The two of them walked to the front door, and Uchiha lowered his voice,""Before you go on your mission, there are a few things you have to remember.”
Ling collected her emotions and listened carefully.
He was not a fool. What Uchiha wanted to tell him at this time was probably very important.
"First, don't expose your Three Hook Jade Shura Eye. At most, you can only activate the Double Hook Jade. I've already ordered the family to keep their mouths shut.”
Ling blinked her eyes in confusion and nodded, indicating that she had remembered it.
Uchiha looked at him and knew that he didn't understand. He explained,""This old man is old. If you were young, you naturally wouldn't need to hide your talent. However, now, you are gradually unable to suppress some people in the clan. If you reveal your talent, I'm afraid that they will do something that they shouldn't.”
"A tall tree attracts the wind. When you are one step ahead, you are a genius. However, if you are ten steps ahead, even the clansmen of the same family will think that you are a monster.”
Ling took a deep breath. Uchiha's words had once again opened his eyes to a whole new world.
It turned out that the family was not so harmonious and perfect.
"I understand." He nodded and remembered it.
"Second, although the mission is important, in an emergency, you have to make sure you're safe.”
"Ah?" Ling cried out in surprise. Clan ninjas always prioritized clan missions. Many ninjas would not hesitate to sacrifice their lives to complete their missions.
"This is the agreement between Tajima and me. You are my only grandson. If there is an emergency, you have the right to retreat.”Uchiha said calmly.
Ling's heart warmed. She didn't know how much effort this old man had put in to obtain such authority.
"Third, don't tell your secret to anyone, not even this old man, not even the dead.”
"Yes."
These words were inexplicable, but Ling deeply believed that Uchiha would not harm him. He must have his own thoughts and reasons for saying these words.
Strictly speaking, Ling was not a real ninja because he had never experienced a ninja's battle or completed a mission. He was just a toddler on the path of a ninja.
Uchiha's words were definitely beneficial to him, so regardless of whether he understood it or not, he had to remember it first.
"Alright, I'm old. I've said a few long-winded words. If you can listen, then listen. Go and complete the mission well.”Uchiha said calmly as he patted Ling's shoulder.
"Grandpa, I'll be leaving first."
Ling strode forward and soon disappeared from Uchiha's sight.
