"I don't have the time or energy to teach it slowly."

After weighing the pros and cons, Huang decided to agree and walked towards the girl kneeling on the ground.

After all, compared to the Tsuchigumo clan having to come to fulfill their promises when they encounter danger, it is much simpler to be responsible for just one person.

Furthermore, after being cleansed by the life force of the Firefly Grass, the life force of the Enma will also be extended to a certain extent. Having such a strong person from the same era as Hiruzen Sarutobi in charge is also an enhancement to the foundation of the Demon Village.

If Ying is able to inherit her clan's secret techniques someday in the future, she could become a valuable asset.

"Yes,"

Upon receiving an affirmative answer, the girl raised her face in response, only to see the outsider approaching her.

"Let's test the chakra properties within you."

Huang handed over a white square piece of paper.

This is a standard chakra test strip. Almost every village and ninja clan prepares such a test strip to determine the chakra attributes of their descendants.

In this way, learning ninjutsu of the corresponding attribute can achieve twice the result with half the effort.

"Yes, master."

Hotaru respectfully reached out and took the chakra test strip from her field of vision, her green pupils revealing curiosity.

Although she came from a ninja family and had a powerful grandfather, this was her first time formally dealing with anything related to ninjutsu.

The reason is simple: protection from the warriors.

The Earth Spider clan, gradually declining, is completely incompatible with its self-proclaimed powerful forbidden techniques.

Becoming a ninja inevitably attracts the covetousness of outsiders, while living as an ordinary person allows one to live a peaceful and stable life.

However, this was before that.

Now that they have gained a powerful backer, continuing the family's reputation has become an achievable goal.

"Water-style chakra doesn't really suit me."

Looking at the chakra test strip that had suddenly become soaked in the girl's hand, Ara muttered to himself.

His family excels in lightning and fire, while his ice style is a gift from the Snow Woman. Although it shares the same origin as water, there is a vast difference between the two.

Upon hearing this, a look of panic suddenly appeared on Hotaru's face, and her thin lips pursed unconsciously. She was worried that the difference in chakra attributes would become a reason for the other party to refuse to teach her.

"It's nothing, just a slight difference in ninjutsu and training methods."

"Or rather, water-style chakra is just right."

Noticing the girl's sudden panic, Huang spoke up to comfort her.

And after the other party calmed down a bit, he added:

"look into my eyes."

Ying dared not be negligent in the face of this. After softly answering "yes," she raised her gaze to meet the former's distinctive scarlet eyes.

Meanwhile, the servant stood guard by the side, saying and doing nothing, as if he had completely entrusted everything about his granddaughter to this suddenly arriving young man.

Of course, Ara wasn't joking. Indeed, water-style chakra is second only to, and in some ways even superior to, fire-style chakra.

Because his skill in ninjutsu is second only to his swordsmanship, and he happened to have recently reviewed the memories of the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju. You should know that the guy was a master of water-style ninjutsu, and could even build a dam out of thin air in places without water, which was almost the limit of water-style ninjutsu that humans could reach.

And it wasn't just Tobirama Senju; Hanzo the Salamander was also a Water Release master that almost no one could rival. However, his Water Release abilities and talent were overshadowed by the deadly poison of the Salamander he carried.

Even without mentioning these two,

The ninja swordsmen from Kirigakure, such as Zabuza Momochi and Mangetsu Hozuki, were all skilled in using water-style techniques to varying degrees.

After transmitting the basic Water Release knowledge belonging to Tobirama Senju to the girl in front of him through his Sharingan, Ara felt that he had already completed the first step of fulfilling the contract.

How far the other person can go in the future will depend on their talent and how hard they work.

"Get up,"

"Only when you have mastered all of this knowledge will I teach you more powerful Water Release ninjutsu."

"Next, it's your turn."

Huang said calmly.

"Yes."

Hotaru responded somewhat dizzily, because her head had suddenly been filled with a lot of knowledge, even if it was just the most basic theoretical knowledge. However, for a novice who had never been exposed to ninjutsu, it was still relatively complicated and difficult to digest.

"Thank you for keeping your promise."

The traveler also spoke at this opportune moment.

Yu Zhi's eyes revealed undisguised astonishment, after all, this was the first time he had ever seen such a special method of teaching through the Sharingan.

"I still have some things to take care of,"

"You can head to the Hidden Demon Village first. Once you arrive, ninjas will arrange accommodations for you."

Huang did not directly respond to the gratitude, but instead prepared to leave.

The purpose of this trip is not only to obtain the summoning materials for the Earth Spider, but also to open a passage to a certain faction and thereby obtain the divine artifact controlled by that faction.

Otherwise, even if Obito Uchiha is found in the future, he will be helpless against that guy's space-time ninjutsu.

Of course, it's not just Obito Uchiha; there are also potential enemies like Mount Myōboku, which can perform reverse summoning!

but,

When he suggested that the three of them, master and servants, go ahead first, he did not receive a definite response. Instead, he received an inquiry from the traveler: "May I ask if Lord Ara's next task is dangerous?"

"It should be under control."

Ara assessed the gap between himself and his opponent. Although the opponent also had the title of a Tailed Beast, he was just a fake imposter.

"Then please bring Hotaru along as well,"

"Before I leave, I also have some things to clean up and take care of."

"This is also to reduce some potential threats to your power."

As he spoke, a cold glint flashed in the eyes of the traveler.

Chapter 589 The Ruins of Kongren, the Hidden Place of Shennong.

"Got it!"

"Otherwise, it wouldn't be my responsibility if they fell."

Looking at the girl clinging to his arm like a burden, Huang's words carried no particular emotion.

【! 】

Hearing the abrupt sound, Ying didn't answer, but her tightly furrowed, delicate features revealed her tension and fear.

At the same time, she hugged the former's arm even tighter, fearing that his unlucky words might come true.

After all, they are now soaring thousands of meters in the air!

Falling down would undoubtedly result in being smashed to pieces.

Besides,

What kind of lousy chef is this?!

How could he so casually utter such cold words to his adorable little apprentice?!

Grandpa, what are you thinking?!

As Ying's fear grew, she repeatedly berated the former's indifference and her grandfather's arbitrary decisions.

This was the first time she had left her family home to embark on a long journey, and it was also the first time in such a thrilling way.

Fortunately, in the world with my eyes closed, the journey didn't seem too long. In my hazy perception, it seemed like only half a day had passed before I heard the voice of my newly recognized master:

"We're almost there. You can open your eyes now."

Ying opened her closed eyes as instructed.

Suddenly, a scene of unexpected beauty filled his field of vision.

On the distant horizon, a huge crimson sun was slowly setting, and the surrounding clouds, sky, and world were all painted in a fiery red.

She was suspended in mid-air, gazing at this very special view.

"What a nice view."

After a long while, a soft comment finally slipped out from the corner of his mouth.

And from beginning to end, her gaze remained fixed on the scorching sun slowly setting behind the mountains.

Is this what training in ninjutsu can achieve?!

Perhaps having such a powerful master isn't all bad.

A thrilling excitement surged within me.

The wilderness is different from it.

His attention was entirely focused on the human village nestled in the rainforest and the magnificent ruins that were faintly visible in the mountains.

This must be the place.

The ruins left on the continent by the Sky Ninja after their defeat decades ago.

Or to be more precise, it was an aerial fortress that could bare its fangs at any moment!

After taking one last look into the distance and noting down the approximate location, he immediately dropped the firefly with him.

Although there were no signs of any aerial ninja activity in the unobstructed sky, it was always better to be cautious in order to prevent the prey from sensing any signs and escaping under the cover of the rainforest.

After all, the thing he was going to hunt, called "Zero Tail," wouldn't just appear out of thin air without a driver.

"here it is?"

As they descended from the sky, the impenetrable darkness and the towering, wildly growing trees gradually filled their vision, and an inexplicable fear began to dominate Ying, who had never been exposed to the special environment of a tropical rainforest since birth in a greenhouse.

Especially when the sounds that reach your ears are no longer just the sound of the wind, but instead various delicate chirping of insects and animal sounds; when even if you have never practiced ninjutsu, you can clearly sense a large number of strange auras around you!

This situation made him desperately want to escape!
