In the courtyard of the Thousand Hands Mansion, Qianxuan once again perfectly embedded himself into the wall.

He felt that his life was like this wall, which was repeatedly repaired and then repeatedly smashed, full of holes.

Over the next few days, an eerie peace settled over the mansion.

Qianxuan spends every day in his study copying those sealing runes that would drive a normal person crazy.

Tsunade, like a supervisor, sat opposite him, seemingly reading a medical book, but in reality, most of her attention was on him.

Neither of them mentioned what happened that day.

But Qianxuan always felt that Tsunade's gaze towards him contained something more than just disdain and impatience.

For example, when he got tired of copying and rubbed his wrists while sighing, she would snort and push a cup of hot tea she had just brewed in front of him.

For example, when he complains that the food is too bad and affects his study efficiency, a carefully prepared, nutritionally balanced bento box will appear on the table the next day.

Qianxuan enjoys this "painful yet joyful" teaching life.

The only thing that made him uneasy was the increasingly fragmented news coming from the front lines.

"rustle……"

The pen tip glides across the scroll, and an intricate rune is about to be completed.

But Qianxuan's hand stopped at the last stroke.

An image flashed uncontrollably in his mind: a boy wearing goggles, laughing carefree, and a brown-haired girl who always followed gently behind him.

Water Country Frontline, Minato's Team, Three-Tails...

These words, like needles, pierced his heart.

The plot of Kannabi Bridge was changed by herself, but is the inertia of fate really so easy to reverse?

"Distracted?"

A cold voice rang in his ears, pulling Qian Xuan back from his thoughts.

Tsunade had somehow appeared behind him, looking down at his stagnant pen.

"What filthy things are you thinking about?"

"Thinking of my comrades."

Qian Xuan put down his pen, leaned back in his chair, and unusually, didn't have a joking expression.

"Minato and the others should be in the Land of Water right now."

Tsunade remained silent.

War was the topic she least wanted to mention.

The atmosphere in the study became somewhat heavy for a moment.

"Hmph, you have time to worry about others?"

Tsunade quickly reverted to her usual stern demeanor.

"If you really have that ability, then hurry up and learn these things. What right does a piece of trash who can't even protect himself have to worry about others?"

Qianxuan pursed his lips but didn't refute.

He knew that this woman was all bark and no bite.

"How about this?"

Tsunade seemed to find the atmosphere too oppressive as well. She pulled out a brand new scroll from the side and threw it in front of Sengen.

"I'm giving you a chance. Draw this 'Four Symbols Seal' array diagram perfectly in one go."

"If we can do that..."

She paused, her pretty face slightly turned to the side, her ears turning a little red.

"I'll... I'll reward you one more time."

Qianxuan's eyes lit up instantly.

He sprang up from the chair, feeling a surge of energy coursing through his body.

"It's a deal!"

Half an hour later.

Qianxuan knelt down on one knee again, carefully holding that fair, jade-like foot, his face showing an expression of almost pilgrimage-like devotion and ecstasy.

Tsunade leaned back on the sofa, arms crossed over her chest, forcibly suppressing the shame and panic in her heart, while continuing to warn others.

"I'm telling you, this is a one-time thing! If you dare... dare to have those perverted thoughts again, I... I really will break your legs!"

Qian Xuan didn't speak; he was completely immersed in his own world.

Art, this is pure art.

Just as he was preparing to begin this sacred "ritual".

"Bang!"

The study door was kicked open.

"Tsunade-nee! Hurry! I heard Ichiraku Ramen has a new limited edition tonkotsu chashu ramen! If we're late, it'll be sold out..."

Kushina rushed in excitedly, but her voice stopped abruptly halfway through her sentence.

She froze at the doorway.

Her gaze slowly moved down from Tsunade's face, which was so red it was almost bleeding, to Qianxuan kneeling on one knee, then to the foot he was holding in his hands, and finally settled on the lewd expression on Qianxuan's face, which was one of infatuation, as if his soul had been sublimated.

A deathly silence fell over the study.

one second.

two seconds.

"puff--"

Kushina's face instantly turned a deep purplish-red. She desperately covered her mouth, her shoulders trembling violently, trying to suppress the laughter that was about to burst from her skull.

She failed.

"Pfft, hahahahahahaha—!!"

A deafening burst of laughter echoed throughout the entire Thousand Hands Mansion.

"It's...it's true! Hahahaha...Qianxuan! You...you're telling the truth!"

Kushina laughed until tears streamed down her face. She leaned against the doorframe, pointing at the couple inside, panting heavily.

"My chosen husband... I won't marry anyone but you... So... so this is what it means to be determined to marry anyone but you?! Hahahaha... I can't take it anymore, I'm definitely going to tell Minato when he gets back!"

Tsunade's mind went blank with a buzzing sound.

She looked at her younger sister, who was laughing and rolling on the floor by the door, and then at the culprit on the ground, who was still holding her feet and looking completely bewildered.

A surge of earth-shattering shame and indignation erupted.

"ah--!"

With a scream, Qianxuan transformed into a humanoid cannonball once again, flying out of the study at a completely new angle and speed, splashing a huge spray of water into the pond in the courtyard.

Kushina laughed even harder as she watched this familiar scene.

She felt that she might need to keep nitroglycerin pills on hand whenever she visited the Thousand Hands Mansion in the future.

……

the next day.

Sengen's reputation in Konoha Village has reached an unprecedented new height.

"Hey, have you heard? That Sakuya Chigen..."

"I heard! I heard! Lady Kushina said it herself, he knelt on the ground and gave Lady Tsunade... um..."

"My God, is this for real? He's so... so twisted!"

"More than that, it's said he looked completely ecstatic, his mouth practically watering!"

"Perverted foot fetish!"

With two huge dark circles under his eyes, Qian Xuan walked on the way to the training ground, feeling as if the whole world was full of malice.

He is now not only the "Number One Freeloader in Konoha," but also has the glorious title of "Perverted Foot Fetishist."

His reputation is completely ruined.

"Ugh."

Qianxuan sighed and decided to turn his grief and anger into strength.

Since the study of sealing techniques has temporarily hit a bottleneck (in a physical sense), let's change direction.

Scorching Escape!

When he found Yekura, she was in the training ground in the backyard, practicing her control over chakra.

Several small, orange-red fireballs, seemingly capable of igniting the air, swirled and danced at her fingertips, radiating astonishing heat.

"Yakura".

Qianxuan walked up behind her.

Ye Cang dispersed the chakra in her hand, turned around, and looked at his miserable appearance, as if he had been beaten up by more than a dozen genin. A smile that she tried her best to suppress flashed in her eyes.

In the past few days, she has gradually adapted to life here, overcoming her initial shyness and unease.

In particular, after witnessing the daily life between Sengen and Tsunade, which resembled a war movie, she felt her heart, which had become cold because of betrayal, begin to warm up again.

This home, though noisy and eccentric, is very warm.

"What's up?"

Her voice was still cool and aloof, but it no longer felt as distant as it had at the beginning.

"Teach me the Burning Escape Technique."

Qianxuan got straight to the point.

Upon hearing this, Ye Cang looked him up and down, his gaze as if he were examining a piece of merchandise.

Then, she suddenly sat down on a stone bench to the side, and imitating Tsunade, crossed one leg and pointed to her foot wearing ninja sandals.

Her feet are beautiful. Although they are not as perfect as Tsunade's, her years as a ninja have given her ankles and calves a powerful look, which is quite unique.

"Can."

Ye Cang's lips curled into a very shallow, slightly mocking smile.

"However, I have one condition."

Qianxuan's heart skipped a beat; he had a bad feeling.

"What are the conditions?"

Ye Cang pointed to his feet, his words concise and to the point.

Give me a foot massage.

"I want someone like Lady Tsunade."

"If I'm satisfied, I'll teach you."

Qianxuan was stunned.

He stared blankly at Ye Cang, then at her dangling foot, his brain frozen for a full five seconds.

Can such a good thing really happen?

He felt that his worldview had been turned upside down at that moment.

He expected to be disliked, to be given the cold shoulder, or even to be attacked with a fireball.

result……

Happiness can come so suddenly!

A brilliant, even somewhat lewd, smile slowly spread across Qian Xuan's face.

A wolf-like green light gleamed in his eyes.

He took a step forward, lowered his body, and in what he thought was a very cool and domineering pose, extended a finger and lifted Yekura's chin.

His voice was very low and magnetic.

"Woman, you're playing with fire."

Ye Cang was taken aback by his sudden action. She blinked her brown eyes, looked at him, and her face was full of pure, unpretentious confusion.

"???"

"Otherwise what?"

She looked at him as if he were an idiot and asked him a question as if it were perfectly natural.

"Why am I called the Scorching Escape Master?"
