"Thank you, Sister Yin'er."
"You are Master’s disciple, no need to be so formal."
Under the lush branches, in the shade of the trees.
After receiving Ah Yin’s massage, the soreness in Zhu Zhuqing's legs had eased.
She gazed at the delicacies laid out by Qian Renjue.
Unable to stop herself from swallowing.
"Grrr~"
"Heh, what are you staring at? You’ve been running for so long, sit down and have some food," Qian Renjue said to Zhu Z...
In a canyon to the southeast, a group had set up camp, and from the central tent came the sounds of an intense argument.
"Uzumaki Mito, why are the people you brought constantly slacking off? Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you're my brother's fiancée!"
A furious white-haired man slammed his fist onto the table, causing the makeshift furniture to groan in protest.
Senju Tobirama, now a young man with his boyish looks gone, gritted his teeth,...
"Captain Koji!"
The clansmen around Senju Koji hurriedly helped him up, their eyes filled with fear as they looked at Uchiha Gin.
The illusions of the Uchiha clan are terrifying beyond words. The powerful Captain Koji was taken down with just one move.
Wait a minute—Is the Senju clan playing the victim now?
"Let go of me, I’m fine!"
Struggling to his feet, Koji wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and rasped at Uchiha Gin, who stood befor...
“Damn it! We’re late again!”
Just after the Hagoromo Clan had relocated, a group of people arrived aggressively. Seeing the chaos left behind, the man leading the group couldn't help but click his tongue in frustration.
“Captain Koji, our young master instructed that if we find traces of the Hagoromo Clan again, we should report immediately,” a red-haired man behind him reminded, frustrated from having lost track of their target multiple times, always missing t...
“Prepare to die!”
After three agreed-upon moves, Kinkaku cracked his knuckles with a sinister grin, making a loud cracking sound as he stepped forward towards Uchiha Haruka, who was locked in a staring contest with Uchiha Gin.
Crack! Crack!
The sound of joints popping echoed loudly.
Crack! Crack! Screech! Crack!
Suddenly, mixed with the sound of cracking bones, there was a sharp, clear tearing sound.
Kinkaku, who had just taken a couple of...
"May I ask, brother, how old are you?"
Uchiha Gin lifted his head and gazed at the blond boy in front of him, whose face was full of harsh lines. He carefully examined his appearance.
After briefly pausing at the six markings on the boy’s cheeks, Gin looked directly into his defiant eyes and asked sincerely.
Kinkaku, staring at this seemingly frail Uchiha, was shocked. Not only was the boy unafraid, but he even dared to ask about his age.
“Hmph! I’m t...
The blackness that had obscured half of the cave faded away.
The Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion landed on the ground, raising its proud head.
“Hmph!”
It snorted coldly.
The Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion turned to look at the Snow Maiden.
“Sister, he’s already turned into ice shards, nothing left to see.”
As the words fell, the Snow Empress continued to gaze at the spot where Qian Renjue had been.
“Sister?”
The Ice Jade Emper...
The speed of a ninja was no joke.
Covering a distance of several dozen kilometers, the trio didn’t take much time to reach their destination.
“It’s right here.”
Uchiha Gin discreetly activated his powerful sensory abilities, clearly sensing the presence of hundreds of life forms in the forest, both big and small.
“Is there some kind of secret signal we should use?” Uchiha Haruka cautiously asked. On the way, Uchiha Gin had already briefed her o...
In the pitch-black backyard, flames erupted violently into the sky, and four ferocious flaming dragons roared as they opened their jaws wide, ready to devour the person in front of them.
“What’s this supposed to be? Who do you think you’re underestimating?”
Uchiha Gin looked at the imposing fire dragons, but showed no interest. This was supposed to be a test for an old warrior? At least they could’ve tried harder for a family member.
Fire Style: Dragon F...
"A mission?"
The once-excited girl now wore a look of disappointment, but she didn't say much.
Always understanding, she chose to wait.
"Then I'll wait for Gin-san to return and talk about it."
So obedient, it makes one’s heart ache. Truly the kind of child others would envy.
Wait, no... it seems like now she's really become part of the family.
With this thought, Uchiha Gin looked at Uchiha Haruka, who seemed abandoned like a small puppy. S...
"Mmph, mmph, mmph~~"
The purple-haired woman was groaning in pain, her head firmly gripped by her own daughter.
In Uchiha Haruka's eyes, which were glowing red with a sinister smile, her delicate lips slightly parted, and despite her beauty, she spoke in a bone-chilling voice.
"My dear mother, you seem to miss Father too much. How about I send you down to reunite with him?"
"Haruka, wake up! I’m your mother!"
Hearing such treasonous words from her ...
At the Uchiha clan’s market, under the shade of a stall outside a shop:
“Please enjoy~ ah~”
A voluptuous, purple-haired woman gazed seductively at Uchiha Gin, who maintained a serious expression. Ignoring the nearby, visibly fuming Uchiha Hikari, the woman brought a bowl of shaved ice covered in honey syrup close to Gin’s mouth.
“Gin-san, why aren’t you eating today?”
The woman tilted her head curiously and tucked a strand of purple hair behin...
In front of Qian Renjue stood the majestic and towering snowy peaks, familiar from the last time he had been here.
A white palace, freezing cold like an icy cave, stretched before him.
The palace roof was adorned with ice sculptures of various soul beasts, inverted and transparent, reflecting white light.
Below, there was a strange cold spring. Despite the harsh cold of the place, the spring showed no signs of freezing.
Two snowy peaks rose from the cold w...
"Uh-huh."
Faced with Hu Liena's questioning, Qian Renjue couldn't deny it. He could only nod honestly.
Trying to settle things, he gave an awkward smile and said, "We're even now."
"Senior brother, you! How can something like this be considered even?!"
Hu Liena curled up in Qian Renjue's arms, her face even more flushed. She clearly remembered being caught in the act by her senior brother.
"You're right, it's not even," Qian Renjue changed his tone a...
Uchiha Gin, having been sent off with a casual "Let's see how you perform" by Uchiha Tajima, walked down the corridor of the courtyard with a forlorn expression.
"Hikari, you have no objections?"
Sighing, Gin tucked the map into the bag slung over his back and turned to quietly ask Uchiha Hikari, who was silently following behind him.
"As long as I'm with you, Gin, I'm fine with anything,"
The girl fanned her flushed face, feeling dizzy from the heat of the scorchi...
Senju Butsuma?
Upon hearing this name, Uchiha Gin's brows furrowed deeply.
A few years ago, when he arrogantly went to witness the classic showdown between his cousin and Hashirama, Uchiha Gin was punched into the ICU by Senju Butsuma.
Even now, whenever he recalls that moment, his forearms still throb in pain.
“Wasn’t he supposed to have died of illness? What does this have to do with the Hagoromo Clan?”
The news of Senju Butsuma's death from ...
As the two entered the clan leader’s residence, they encountered Uchiha Madara, who was carrying a wooden sword. With a stern face, Madara grabbed Izuna by the neck, ignoring his resistance, and forcefully dragged him away.
"Father is waiting for you."
Leaving these words behind, Uchiha Madara continued his daily interactions with his younger brother. Uchiha Gin and Uchiha Hikari looked at their cousin with sympathetic gazes, unable to do anything but offer a helpless ...
"I'm not blind!"
Uchiha Hikari was enraged by the floating figure in front of her. With her perfect Mangekyo Sharingan, she could see every pore on the other person's face.
But seeing the familiar appearance of her opponent, she was certain this person was not showing their true face.
"Kekeke, have you forgotten what you look like?"
The black figure floating mid-air smirked, teasing her with a twisted grin and bright eyes.
"Stop playing tricks!"
<...
Ultimately, Senju Itama did not end up sleeping in the same bed as Uchiha Gin. Despite hjs earlier high-and-mighty attitude, once he returned to the old house, her bravado disappeared in an instant. He grabbed a blanket, hurriedly ran to the living room, and showed no intention of sharing a bed.
"Are you sure you don't want to sleep in the bedroom?" Uchiha Gin asked, stripping off his shirt to reveal his sculpted physique. With a lazy expression, he raised an eyebrow in confusi...
The sound of running water in the bathroom came to a stop, leaving the room in complete silence. Qian Renjue stepped out of the bathroom and glanced at Bibi Dong’s back without saying anything further to disturb her.
He had calmed down by now.
It was better this way, quiet and peaceful, without any awkwardness.
Turning off the lights, he climbed into bed.
Sitting cross-legged on the soft, fragrant bed, Qian Renjue closed his eyes and emptied his mind, wai...
“Sizzle—sizzle~~”
Uchiha Gin skillfully flipped the meat on the grill with his chopsticks, the juicy fat sizzling and releasing the last bit of fragrance as the flames extracted it.
The group sitting around the grill stared at the golden, oily grilled meat, their mouths watering uncontrollably.
“Cousin! Is it done yet?”
Impatient, Uchiha Izuna wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth and urged Uchiha Gin, who was in charge of the barbecue.
...
As mealtime approached, the barbecue restaurant started to fill with customers. Uchiha Ayako stopped chatting with the two of them and got up to greet the guests.
Watching the Uchiha clan members laughing and chatting, Uchiha Taro couldn't help but sigh, "It's a rare peaceful time now. There are many more customers than before."
"Yeah, the Senju are selecting a new clan leader, so the battlefield has quieted down a bit, and everyone can relax for a while."
Uchiha ...
After treating the girl’s wounds, Uchiha Gin stood up and went upstairs to prepare a room for her, leaving Senju Itama and Uchiha Hikari staring at each other.
"I still don’t know your name. Maybe Gin was too careless and forgot to tell me on the way."
Casually picking up the tea cup that Uchiha Gin had drunk from, the girl took a small sip, then looked up with a smile, speaking to Senju Itama with a hint of the warmth left from the tea in her voice.
"Uh, that cur...
The three of them were eager to return. What should have taken two days of travel, they managed to complete in just one, rushing back to their clan.
From a distance, the familiar gate of the clan grounds came into view, but the girl hesitated. It had been over a decade since her sealing, and the place had changed. Would there still be a place for her here?
"Hikari, what's wrong? We're almost home," Uchiha Gin turned to her, noticing her hesitation.
Yes, she still ...
Looking at the girl huddled in the corner of the Tsukuyomi space, clutching her head, Uchiha Gin sighed at the cringe-worthy "edgelord" antics of the dark personality, and the exceptional influence it had on Hikari's worldview.
But why wasn't Hikari affected by the dark personality?
Uchiha Gin's mind flashed back to the details of the mission as his eyes wandered aimlessly around, finally landing on the girl still squatting in the corner, more specifically on the dark gr...
Sss—
A slight sound of pain came from Qian Renjue, echoing in the room.
Zhu Zhuqing, lying under the covers, slowly opened her eyes, her cheeks flushed.
What were the teacher and Sister Yin'er doing just now?
Wasn't it supposed to be grass?
Zhu Zhuqing turned her head to the side and looked at the white paper pressed under the iron box next to her pillow.
Many characters were neatly arranged on it.
The handwriting was strong and force...
“You idiot, retreat first!”
“You blackened coal head, don’t think you can order me around!”
Due to a disagreement, the two blackened characters were quarreling intensely. The perverted, cunning old "filial son" who had developed over a thousand years subconsciously wanted to choose to retreat, believing it was better to live to fight another day. However, Uchiha Tajima, consumed by dark side, only had one goal in mind: to kill Uchiha Gin.
"Gin, it looks ...
A black-haired, curly-headed figure excitedly raised the long knife in his hand, gesturing toward the man nailed to the cross, searching for the right angle to strike.
Ignoring the urging of the people behind him, he finally picked a spot and was just about to stab the knife in, when to his surprise, the person on the cross vanished with the wind. Stunned, he rubbed his eyes and shouted in disbelief,
“Hey, hey, hey! I haven't even made my move yet!”
Seeing their t...
“Gin, what do you want?”
Uchiha Igaku, crucified on the cross, twitched his face. His lower body felt cold, and with a rare plea in his single eye, he said,
"You and I are family, grandfather and grandson, there's no need for us to be so estranged."
"Naturally! You should know, I, Uchiha Gin, have always been an upright person."
Uchiha Gin squinted his dead fish eyes, speaking with righteous conviction, as if he were a model citizen. But the long blade that...
The hunched and frail figure of Uchiha Igaku stood upright at this moment. The broken bodies of the old prison guards around him began to rapidly disintegrate, turning into gray-white sand that swirled toward the elder.
In no time, they enveloped him, turning him into a white mummy. A large mouth opened from the shadows in the void behind him and swallowed him whole, disappearing without a trace.
“Clack, clack, clack.”
As a black glow lit up, a tall figure, ra...
