A cold, indifferent voice fell from the sky.

Looking at these divine soldiers, which seemed to have been descended by a god, a clear look of displeasure appeared on the face of the warrior.

Because he knew perfectly well that he could not possibly defeat the monster manifested by the originator with his own strength alone.

If the family's forbidden technique were activated, it might be possible to annihilate this terrifying existence, but the entire Gecheng Mountain Fortress would undoubtedly collapse as well.

And his most important granddaughter is still here.

Delay, wait

This is the thought revealed in the eyes of the traveler.

Only when Ying is completely gone can I fight her without restraint.

"grandfather!"

But just then, a delicate cry suddenly rang out from behind him.

It was the voice of his beloved granddaughter, Ying!

The appearance of such a taboo immediately made the traveler's heart tremble.

"Dunbei, what on earth are you doing?!"

"Have you forgotten what you promised me? Hurry up and take Ying away from here!!"

He suddenly turned around and scolded,

Even though he had already reminded his servants to keep their promise when the powerful enemy appeared, he still managed to do so.

However, before Dunbei, who was also aging in the river of time, could reply, the girl with brown curly hair ignored the threat from the sky and stepped in front of her grandfather.

"No, you mustn't hurt my grandfather."

Her slender arms stretched out like a mother hen protecting her chicks, and her beautiful face showed determination. Even when facing the terrifying intruder that lingered in the sky, there was a trembling fear in her eyes.

Hotaru didn't see what the newcomer looked like when they appeared.

It was only when that terrifying aura suddenly filled the entire mountain that, after much internal struggle, he chose to run back through the tunnel leading to the back of the mountain.

Because no matter what, she couldn't abandon her last remaining family member!

"firefly."

Looking at the girl blocking his way and feeling the determination in her voice, the Traveler's face did not show any relief. Instead, a feeling of disappointment grew stronger.

What's that silly girl doing back here again?

This could kill people!!

His inner world was roaring wildly.

Throughout his life, there were few times when he was as anxious and flustered as he is today, or at this moment.

"Owner,"

"Please take Miss Ying and leave quickly. This old servant will risk his life to buy you time to leave!"

Dunbei rushed forward with a mournful cry, realizing that he had failed to fulfill his promise to his master and take the young lady away immediately, which was a dereliction of duty.

The only way he could think of to make amends at that moment was to use his worthless life to buy himself a little more time.

"It makes me look like an unforgivable villain."

Watching the tragic scene unfold on the mountaintop, Huang subconsciously muttered to himself, and the powerful aura he had gathered dissipated considerably at this moment.

Ultimately, neither they nor the Hidden Demon Village harbored any hatred towards the Earth Spider Clan who lived in seclusion in this place.

Moreover, although the Tsuchigumo clan possesses secret techniques that even Hiruzen Sarutobi fears, they do not harbor the desire for revenge or to reshape the world, unlike the Akatsuki or the Sky Ninja.

At least not yet.

Therefore, he did not have a completely justifiable reason to take action against this clan.

That's why Huang chose to temporarily stop when he saw such a life-or-death attitude of mutual protection.

Isn't that right!

Hearing the soliloquy descending from the sky, the Traveler roared in response in his heart.

This caused his beloved granddaughter to cry her eyes out. If we were to go back another ten or twenty years, he would have already taken the secret technique to that so-called Demon Hidden Village!

However, as he grew older, he often had to choose to endure and compromise in order to better protect the people and things he wanted to protect.

"I'll give you time to settle your granddaughter and servants."

Ara stood several dozen meters away from the three members of the Tsuchigumo clan, master and servants.

Perhaps threatening Hotaru and Dunbei's lives directly would simplify the whole situation.

But doing so is ultimately not in line with his style of doing things.

As Susanoo was deactivated, Hotaru and Dunbei were able to see the appearance of the newcomer, and an incredulous look of astonishment appeared on their faces.

They all assumed that the being who could wield that terrifying weapon of war must be some kind of ferocious demon, or a powerful figure who had once rivaled their grandfather (master) in the previous era.

I really never imagined that the other party would be such a young man!

And judging from appearance alone, they might be around my age!

Ying stared blankly at the intruder in her field of vision, and thought to herself.

"It is said that the person who turned the Uchiha clan from the brink of ruin and propelled them onto a new stage of history is a young junior."

Even those of us who live in seclusion deep in the mountains have heard of such messages.

"Today I have witnessed his heroic youth."

"The current head of the Uchiha clan, Lord Uchiha Ara."

Looking at the newcomer who had temporarily ceased his fighting stance, a hint of admiration appeared in the sharp eyes of the Traveler.

Putting aside the invasion, the fact that he was able to keep his granddaughter and servants away from him sets him apart from Lord Ai of Raihime Village, who also possesses great strength.

"Dunbei, what are you still standing there for?"

"Why aren't you taking the young lady and leaving?"

At the same time, he did not forget to remind the two people in front of him to take this opportunity to leave.

After all, strong people all have some eccentricities.

If one becomes impatient while waiting, or if one's skills are inferior to others, and one overturns the decision made at this moment, it will be a very troublesome matter for one's own side.

[Is he... Ara?]

[Konoha, which was about to hold the Chunin Exams, turned Uchiha Ara upside down!]

The direct naming of the envoy further amplified the astonishment in Ying and Dunbingwei's eyes.

No, it wasn't just astonishment, it was also fear.

Because the rumors circulating in the clan are not like that!

He was neither a heroic youth nor a powerful figure who single-handedly brought his family back on track from the brink of ruin.

Instead,

demon!

A treacherous, bloodthirsty demon!

Countless innocent lives in Konoha have been lost due to his selfish desires!

"Yes, Master."

Dunbei's reply was trembling slightly, and he tried to pull the young lady behind him away from there.

But the girl did not give in.

And it was precisely this fear that rose from the depths of his heart that ultimately prompted him to stay here.

How could she leave her grandfather to face this infamous and terrifying man alone?

After all, for him, his grandfather was the last remaining relative in the world!

"firefly!"

The traveler whispered the girl's name, his white hair fluttering in the wind giving off an imposing yet stern feeling.

"no, do not want!"

"I don't want to leave Grandpa, absolutely not!"

"If we're going to die, then let's die together!!"

The girl spoke extreme words, her bright face shaking like a rattle drum as she sobbed.

"Silly girl."

Looking at his granddaughter, who was determined to stay here, the old man, who had been a powerful figure for half his life, couldn't help but waver.

He looked at the person approaching in his field of vision, and then spoke:

"You only want my clan's secret techniques, you won't harm my family, right?"

In fact, as soon as the opponent revealed his strength, Yi Zhi Xing Zhe had already clearly assessed the power gap between himself and the opponent.

This is a chasm that even using forbidden techniques directly might not be able to fill, and could even drag the opponent into a deadly situation.

Now, with that silly girl Ying around, her actions are even more restricted.

"Well, I have no interest in your lives."

Huang answered.

He wasn't even interested in the secret technique itself; he only used it as a prelude to summon a spirit beast that could guard the house.

As for the hostility and sorrow shown by Hotaru and Dunbei, there seems to be no need to explain them.

"I understand. I hope you can keep your promise and leave here immediately after obtaining the forbidden technique."

Looking into the calm eyes of the newcomer, the Traveler sighed inwardly and chose to compromise. He then took out a special scroll from his robes and threw it at the intruder in his sight.

'Snapped. '

With a sound of the object touching his palm, Ara firmly grasped the forbidden technique belonging to the Earth Spider clan in his hand.
