When they become villains in Konoha, the female ninjas all break down.

Fang Yuan is usually so gentle, kind, and selfless. How could he do something so absurd?

How can I face Hongdou now?

You absolutely mustn't let Hongdou know.

Kurenai Yuhi felt a pang of sadness in her heart.

"Are you awake?"

Just then, a noise came from beside them.

Yuhi Kurenai's heart skipped a beat, and she instinctively grabbed the blanket, trying to wrap herself up tightly.

She didn't want anyone to see her like this.

But as soon as she moved, the intense pain forced her to lie down again.

"Okay, stop moving now."

Maitreya, already fully dressed, looked at the little figure before him with a complicated expression.

Fortunately, by the time it was her turn, Hong had already fainted.

He didn't see his own licentious behavior.

"Your Highness, when...when did you arrive?"

The panic on Yuhi Kurenai's face was impossible to hide.

"I...I just arrived."

Maitreya looked somewhat unnatural.

After saying that, seeing that Hongdou's expression had eased slightly, she continued to ask, "Hongdou, what exactly happened?"

Maitreya still hasn't figured out the situation.

Wasn't it said that it was suppressing the backlash from the demons?

Why did I see them as soon as I came in...?

Kurenai shrank her neck, feeling wronged and in dire need of an outlet.

So he recounted what had happened.

"It's all my fault. If I could have cured him, he wouldn't have lost his mind and treated me like this..."

As Maitreya listened, he couldn't help but clench his teeth.

When that guy was smug, he didn't seem to have the slightest hint of evil.

So Fang Yuan was just faking it all?

Damn it, he doesn't even spare his own comrades from Konoha.

"Your Highness, you...you must keep this a secret for me. You absolutely cannot let Hongdou know. Hongdou likes Fangyuan so much, I can't betray her..."

Kurenai Yuhi pouted as she spoke.

Maitreya's expression was sorrowful.

How could she dare say that she herself was...?

"I understand. Don't worry, I'll keep this to myself."

"What about him?"

After much hesitation, Kurenai finally asked, "How is he?"

Maitreya sighed and told a lie, "He's fine now. He probably felt ashamed to face you, so he left on his own..."

"Don't blame him, don't blame him... just consider it repayment for saving his life."

Kurenai Yuhi breathed a sigh of relief, and her sorrowful expression softened slightly.

Maitreya looked at her like this.

I really wanted to tell her the truth, but all the words I said turned into bitterness.

"You get some rest, I'm leaving now..."

Maitreya felt conflicted and prepared to take his leave.

She also needs to take care of her daughter, Xiao Ziyuan.

"and many more……"

Kurenai suddenly called out to her.

"what happened?"

"that……"

Kurenai hesitated for a moment, "Your Highness, it's always like this..."

That unforgettable experience was something she couldn't bring herself to say.

She had only heard Hongdou say that it was fascinating.

I wondered why I felt so... it was like being pricked with needles.

"This one……"

Maitreya clearly understood, which made her even more embarrassed to speak.

It's all that guy's fault for being too rough.

Don't you know that first impressions are important?

"Red, actually..."

Miroku reflected on his feelings, "Except for the very beginning... I'll like it a lot from now on..."

"Ugh?"

Watching the shrine maiden leave, leaning against the wall.

Kurenai was somewhat dumbfounded.

What's wrong with the priestess?

And... how could I possibly like it?

I'm terrified.

……

"Let me go..."

Juan looked at Yekura, who was sleeping soundly beside her, her face full of panic.

He also wanted to...

"Hehe, it's only natural for a disciple to help his teacher, isn't it?" Fang Yuan licked his lips.

"How could this be?"

Fang Yuan joked, "You should thank your teacher properly; she's always been your pioneer..."

"Ugh?"

Another hour later.

Fang Yuan left the grove of trees, satisfied.

He left a paper doll on Ye Cang to protect her.

This paper figure is his 2.0 version.

A trace of his soul clung to it.

……

A few days passed in a flash.

Kakashi, Shisui, and the others who had gone out to wipe out the Yomi Cult returned to the priestess's palace.

The operation did not go smoothly.

Perhaps because the demon was sealed away, the Yellow Springs cultists in the Land of Demons disappeared almost overnight.

Kakashi and the others put in a lot of effort.

But they only wiped out some of the peripheral followers.

However, the leader of the Yellow Springs Cult, who was injured and escaped, has been missing ever since.

The priestess didn't pay much attention to this.

Without the support of the demons, the Yellow Springs Cult is no different from ordinary wandering ninjas.

Once their presence is exposed, the Land of Demons can easily eliminate them by hiring ninjas from any of the five great ninja villages.

Kakashi and Shisui were somewhat bothered by this.

Fortunately, Fang Yuan's recovery brought them some comfort.

And at this time.

Yekura, however, had already left the Land of Demons.

He left with a heart full of anger.

This anger was partly directed at Rasa, and partly at Genji.

What did she see when she woke up first in the grove that day?

An honest self, plus even more honest disciples around you?

And some obvious residual traces.

3.4 Just what I feared most came to pass.

Yekura was completely stunned.

The master and apprentice are in trouble now, they've both used the same cucumber.

what is this?

Enraged, Ye Cang went to confront Fang Yuan that very day.

Instead, he was locked in a dark room and thoroughly investigated.

Helpless, she gritted her teeth in anger.

That very day, he left the Land of Demons with his beloved disciple.

Two more days passed.

Fang Yuan knew that he and his companions could not stay in the Land of Demons indefinitely.

So, after entering and leaving the palace of the priestess Miroku seven times.

Then he said goodbye.

Maitreya was so moved that he wept with joy.

If we don't leave now, we really won't be able to take it anymore.

After bidding farewell to the priestess.

The five members of Konoha finally embarked on their journey home.

On the way back.

The five people, who were getting to know each other better, chatted idly.

This mission not only broadened their horizons but also increased their trust in each other.

This is especially true for Kurenai Yuhi.

The relationship has broken through the barrier of negative distance.

However, she clearly couldn't accept their relationship and kept a distance from Fang Yuan.

Even the aloof Kakashi would occasionally chime in with a comment or two.

There seems to be a trend of them integrating in.
